Pleural mesothelioma is usually divided into two forms of localized and diffuse type. Localized pleural fibrous mesothelioma is uncommon mesodermal neoplasm, which may occurs in both sexes and at the age of 50 years. This type of mesothelioma is usually asymptomatic and detected on routine chest X-ray and made fibrous tissue and shows of collagen fibers microscopically. Most localized fibrous mesothelioma arises from the visceral pleura and is well encapsulated and pedunculated mass. CT findings included well delineated, often lobulated, non-calcified soft tissue masses in close relation to a pleural space, associated pleural thickening, and absence of chest wall invasion and a peripheral or fissure location. Three cases of localized pleural fibrous mesothelioma diagnosed by resectional surgery were reported with the review of literature.

Modified Norwood procedure with maintaining cardiac beat was done in a 30-day-old neonate. Procedure was done with regional perfusion of innominate and coronary artery. Postoperative course was uneventful. Second-stage operation (bi-directional cavopulmonary shunt) was done 4 months later. The diameter of ascending aorta was more than 5 mm, Norwood procedure can be done in beating hearts.

내부부수로, 벽면부수로, 모서리부수로를 포함하는 가압경수로형 원자로의 핵연료집합체를 모의하는 3$\times$3 봉다발을 모델로 수치해석을 통해 봉다발 주변의 유동특성을 알아보고 각 봉에서의 원주방향 위치에 따른 국소열전달 특성에 관해 고찰하였다. 봉다발에서 열전달계수의 분포는 벽면영향으로 인한 각 부수로에서의 유속분포와 밀접한 관계가 있으며 내부부수로에 인접한 봉에서 가장 높았고, 그 다음이 벽면부수로, 모서리부수로에 인접한 봉에서는 가장 작게 나타났다. 현재 핵연료의 열수력 설계시에 적용하고 있는 부수고 내의 모든 열수력학적 변수가 일정하다고 가정하는 부수로 해석방법은 봉다발내의 실제 열전달 현상과는 상당한 차이가 있음을 보여주었다.

계층형 신경회로망은 학습능력이나 비선형사상능력을 가지고 있고, 그 특징을 이용하여 패턴인식이나 동정 및 제어 등에의 적용이 시도되어 성과를 올리고 있다. 현재, 그 학습법으로 널리 이용되고 있는 것이 역전파학습법으로 최급 강하법이나 공액경사법 등의 최적화 방법이 적용되고 있지만, 학습에 많은 시간이 걸리는 점, 국소적 최적해(local minima)에 해의 수렴이 이루어져 오차가 충분히 작게 되지 않는 점 등이 문제점으로 지적되고 있다. 본 논문에서는 Hu에 의해 고안된 random 탐색법과 조합된 random tabu 탐색법으로 최적결합계수를 구하는 학습알고리즘으로, 국소적 최적해에 수렴하는 것을 방지하고, 수렴정도를 개선하는 새로운 방법을 이용하여 회전기계의 이상진동진단에 적용가능성을 검토하고 오차역전파법에 의한 진단결과와 비교검토한다.

In this paper the numerical method with a zonal embedded grid system for an incompressible flow within a semi-circular container is presented. The algorithm is validated by its application to some typical flow models including the spin-up flow inside a semi-circular geometry. Flow visualization for the spin-up flows was used by PIV. The results show that at high Reynolds numbers the cyclonic cell at the left-hand side region moves along the circular wall and merges with the cell at the right-hand side region.

Effects of steel-skeletons on the geomagnetic distribution in building have been studied through the simulation and measurement of geomagnetic distribution at floor surface. Geomagnetic distribution was simulated by the finite element method, and the vertical component Z of geomagnetic field on the floor surface was measured with the fluxgate-type magnetometer. Horizontal steel-skeletons have a little effect on the Z distribution, but vertical skeletons disturb severely the Z distribution and result in the localized geomagnetic disturbance. This disturbance becomes weakened by the bypassing soft-magnetic plate and/or floor.

Most studies of failure analysis in ductile metals have been based on the classical plasticity theory using the local constitutive relations. These frequently yields a physically unrealistic solution, in which a numerical prediction of the onset of a deformation localization shows an inherent mesh-size sensitivity. A one way to remedy the spurious mesh sensitivity resulted in the unreasonable results is to incorporate the non-local plasticity into the simulation model, which introduce an internal (material) length-scale parameter into the classical constitutive relations. In this paper, a non-local version of the modified Gurson constitutive relation has been introduced into the finite element formulation of the simulation for plane strain compression of the visco elastic-plastic void material. By introducing the non-local constitutive relations we could successfully removed the inherent mesh-size sensitivity for the prediction of the deformation localization. The effects of non-local constitutive relation are discussed in terms of the load-stroke curve and the strain distributions accross the shear band.

In this paper the numerical method with a zonal embedded grid system was applied to the spin-up flow within a semi-circular container. Flow visualization was also performed on a rotating table. The results show that at a low level of damping (i.e. low viscosity and high liquid depth) a cyclonic cell produced initially near the left-hand-side corner of the container moves along a wall and merged with the cell on the right-hand-side.

Tetanus is fatal neurological disease caused by Clostridium tetani on contaminated wound that is characterised by muscle spasm, muscle pain, and autonomic dysfuction. C. tetani exist on contaminated wound frequently that developed clinical tetanus under low oxygen condition. Tetanus have four symptomatic form: generalized, localized, cephalic, and neonatal. The incubation period is about 7 days and mortality is high. The commonest presenting symptom is trismus and other is stiffness of neck and back(opisthotonos), muscle spasm, dysphagia, facial pain, risus sardonicus. Trismus is primary presenting symptom in 50~75% of the cases and this have high possibility of initial visit to dental office. This case report of a patient who visit in our department with trismus as chief complaint.

Diffuse-type tenosynovial giant cell tumor (D-TSGCT), previously known as pigmented villonodular synovitis, is a locally aggressive neoplasm that may arise from the synovium, bursa, or tendon sheath. D-TSGCT is usually monoarticular and can be classified into intra- and extra-articular forms, the latter of which is rarer. Here, we report a case of D-TSGCT in a 64-year-old female that involved the entire flexor and extensor tendon sheaths of both wrists. We describe the ultrasonography and MRI findings, as well as review the relevant literature.
