본 연구에서는 기존의 ㅡ자형, ㄴ자형, ㄷ자형 조파시스템이 경사진 방향으로 가동될 때 발생되는 에너지의 불연속성으로 인한 회절철상이나 구조물에서 반사된 파가 조파판에서 발생하는 재 반사 철상의 단점을 보완할 수 있도록 곡선형태의 조파판을 배치하여 수치실험을 행하였다. 조파판을 곡선형으로 배치시켜 실험 대상물에서부터 반사된 파가 가능한 조파판에 직각으로 부딪치도록 유도하였다. 편미분 격자생성기법을 도입하여 구성된 곡선형 격자망에서 Copeland(1985)의 완경사 방정식을 이용하여 수치해석 하였다. 우선, 1차원 실험영역에서 파를 생성하여 대상구조물에서 반사되어 돌아온 반사파 성분을 조파판에서 흡수하면서 입사파를 생성하는 현상을 재현하였다. 그 후, 실험영역을 2차원으로 확장시켜 조파판을 곡선형으로 배치하여 수치 실험하여 진행파와 회절파의 중첩으로 고안된 해석해와 수치 해를 비교하려다. 그 결과, 기존의 조파시스템에 비하여 에너지 불연속선에서의 회절 현상도 발생하지 않고 반사파 성분을 효율적으로 흡수하는데 효과적임을 알아냈다.

This study was conducted to investigate whether whole body cryotherapy and spinal decompression have effectiveness on the pain, lumbar flexion range of motion, and global perceived effect scale in patients with lumbar disc herniation. Thirty subjects were participated in this study. And they were all randomly divided into whole body cryotherapy and spinal decompression group. To evaluate the effects of whole body cryotherapy and spinal decompression, subjects were evaluated by using visual analogue scale, lumbar flexion range of motion, and global perceived effect scale. The assessment parameters were evaluated before, after 2 weeks treatments. And we received a consent form whole body cryotherapy subjects. The results of paired t-test, independent t-test, and ANCOVA analysis of variance showed that pain, lumbar flexion range of motion, global perceived effect scale were significantly improved after than before therapy in whole body cryotherapy group. So we conclude that whole body cryotherapy has effectiveness on the pain, lumbar flexion range of motion, and global perceived effect scale in patients with lumbar disc herniation.

원자로 건물 내부에는 원자로의 안전운전을 위한 다수의 계통, 구조물 및 기기들이 위치하고 있다. 원자로의 안전과 직결되는 안전계통 변수 (수위, 압력) 들은 경우에 따라서는 현장확인이 요구된다. 원자로 가동 중에 운전원에 의한 안전계통변수의 현장확인이 용이하도록 원자로 건물 내부의 출입구 (2 중문) 부근에 수위계, 압력계 등의 현장계기가 위치하고 있다. 본 논문에서는 일본의 (주) 동경전력이 공개한 후쿠시마 제 1 원자력발전소 1 호기 원자로건물의 IC (비상용 복수기, isolation condenser) 조사영상에 나타나는 현장계기의 영상인식에 대해 기술한다. 조사 영상의 분석에 의하면 현장계기들은 기계식의 아날로그 타입이다. 아날로그 타입의 기하구조를 이용하여 계기판 눈금을 인식하고, 계기판 바늘의 기울기 계산을 통해 계기판을 영상 판독할 수 있었다. 이러한 계기판의 영상판독은 후쿠시마 원전 사고와 같이, 고방사선 피폭 우려로 인해 사람대신에 로봇이 원자로 건물내부에 진입하여 주요 계통, 구조물 및 기기의 현장계기를 판독한다고 가정하면, 유용한 기능이다.

An 8-month-old, 3.5 kg intact female Toy Poodle was presented for non-weight-bearing lameness on left hindlimb. In radiological testing, left proximal tibal type II Salter-Harris physeal fracture and fibular fracture were seen. Following open reduction, the fracture was stabilized with cross-pins, tension band wires, and a hinged transarticular external skeletal fixator (HTAESF). The range of the HTAESF was increased to $25^{\circ}$ at 7 days postsurgery and to $70^{\circ}$ at 14 days post-surgery. The HTAESF was removed 3 weeks after surgery. At 6 weeks post-surgery, the fracture was successfully healed with no complications and the patient recovered a normal gait. Seven months post-surgery, the patient had a normal gait and a normal stifle joint range of motion compared to the contralateral normal limb. This is a case in which the combined use of cross-pins, tension band wires, and HTAESF was successful for treatment of a proximal tibial physeal fracture in a dog. It is thought that these methods are beneficial for stability of fracture site and recover of joint's normal range of motion through early joint movement.

It was hard for a conventional care-bed to be realized to a low-floor position due to a complex actuation mechanism installed under the mattress support platform. In this paper a mechanism design to set a low-floor position as well as to adjust back- and leg-rest angles was proposed. A dual motor was applied to the back- and leg-rest mechanism of which design parameters were determined by an optimal method. An elevation mechanism was also designed to enlarge a limited stroke range up to two times of its original stroke using a pulley mechanism. An evaluation test was performed by five healthy subjects ($24.4{\pm}0.5yrs.$) when going up from a floor position to a preset best position which was set to the 240mm height for a prototype low-floor bed and to the 600mm height for a conventional bed. As a result, the moving distance was 38% lower than the conventional bed when the subject used the low-floor bed. It showed that the low-floor care-bed reduced physical burdens and was effective to assist activities of daily living of the elderly people.

To reduce the mechanical energy loss and to get the high energy efficiency, an apparatus of wave power generation inducing a consistent one way rotating motion from the wave reciprocation motions was developed and the hydraulic experiments for the real electric power production were conducted and the results were discussed. In the experiments for the shape of the buoyant tank, the efficiency of the fixed 9 cm diameter type enduring the wave plate weight was 14.6% and this was the best result for all shapes. But although the free sliding type was expected to represent a high efficiency, the experiments did not show a good result as 8.5% efficiency. Therefore, the shape of buoyant tank was decided as the fixed 9 cm diameter type in the next all tests. In the experiments for the various incident waves, when the water depth was 90 cm, the average efficiencies were measured as 3.9% in the 2nd gear, 4.9% in the 3rd gear, 4.9% in the 4th gear, 12.0% in the 5th gear, 10.0% in the 6th gear, 3.1% in the 7th gear, and 3.0% in the 8th gear. Also, when the water depth was 80 cm, the average efficiency was shown as 15.0% with 5th gear condition. Therefore the high average efficiency as 13.5% was given with 80~90 cm water depth and the 5th gear in the model.

Purpose: The purpose of this study was to evaluate the results of eight cases of coronoid process fractures that were fixed with a plate. Materials and Methods: Eight coronoid process fractures were treated by plating and these cases were reviewed retrospectively. Six patients were men and two were women. The average age was 41 years (range: 22-79) at the time of injury. According to Regan's classification, there were five type 2 and three type 3. According to O'Driscoll's classification, there were five anteromedial type and three base type. Open reduction and internal fixation with a plate were performed through a medial approach by splitting of the two heads of the flexor carpi ulnaris. The patients were follow-up for a mean of 15.8 months (range: 6-25). We evaluated the clinical outcomes with using the Mayo Elbow Performance Score. Results: The average active motion of the elbow joint was $120^{\circ}$. The average Mayo Elbow Performance Score was 86.9. There were 5 excellent results, 1 good result and 2 fair results. Summary: Plating through a medial approach of the elbow provided stable fixation and satisfactory union for treating displaced coronoid process fractures with the unstable elbow.

Wedge shaped isodoses are desired in a number of clinical situations. Hard wedge filters have provided nominal angled isodoses with dosimetric consequences of beam hardening, increased peripheral dosing, nonidealized gradients at deep depths along with the practical consequendes of filter handling and placement problems. Dynamic wedging uses a combination of a moving collimator and changing monitor dose to achieve angled isodoses. The segmented treatment tables(STT) that monitor unit setting by every distance of moving collimator, was induced by numerical formular. The characteristics of dynamic wedge by STT compared with real dosimetry. Methods and Materials : The accelerator CLINAC 2100C/D at Yonsei Cancer Center has two photon energies (6MV and 10MV), currently with dynamic wedge angles of 15$^{\circ}$, 30$^{\circ}$, 45$^{\circ}$ and 60$^{\circ}$. The segmented treatment tables(STT) that drive the collimator in concert with a changing monitor unit are unique for field sizes ranging from 4.0cm to 20.0cm in 0.5cm steps. Transmission wedge factors were measured for each STT with an standard ion chamber. Isodose profiles, isodose curves, percentage depth dose for dynamic wedge filters were measured with film dosimetry. Dynamic wedge angle by STT was well coincident with film dosimetry. Percent depth doses were found to be closer to open field but more shallow than hard wedge filter. The wedge transmission factor were decreased by increased the wedge angle and more higher than hard wedge filters. Dynamic wedging probided more consistent gradients across the field compared with hard wedge filters. Dynamic wedging has practical and dosimetric advantages over hard filters for rapid setup and keeping from table collisions. Dynamic wedge filters are positive replacement for hard filters and introduction of dynamic conformal radiotherapy and intensity modulation radiotherapy in a future.
