Background: To determine mean clitoral and glans size of Korean female newborn. Materials and Methods: The size of glans and clitoris of 68 Korean female newborns born at Yeungnam University Medical Center were measured from May in 1999 to August in 1999. Results: The mean size of the 68 newborns were $2.38{\pm}1.14$ mm in glans length, $2.55{\pm}1.48$ mm in glans width and $4.66{\pm}1.93$ mm in clitoral length. In the premature infants the mean clitoral size was $1.92{\pm}1.58$ mm in glans length, $1.78{\pm}1.24$ mm in glans width and $3.86{\pm}2.16$ mm in clitoral length. In the full term infants $2.53{\pm}1.12$ mm in glans length, $2.75{\pm}1.58$ mm in glans width and $4.94{\pm}1.89$ mm in clitoral length. In low birth weight infants clitoral size was measured $1.55{\pm}1.10$ mm in glans length, $2.04{\pm}2.03$ mm in glans width and $3.29{\pm}1.87$ mm in clitoral length. In normal birth weight infants $2.53{\pm}1.13$ mm in glans length, $2.68{\pm}1.48$ mm in glans width and $4.92{\pm}1.91$ mm in clitoral length. In high birth weight infants $1.54{\pm}0.50$ mm in glans length, $1.63{\pm}0.53$ mm in glans width and $3.18{\pm}1.04$ mm in clitoral length. Conclusion: There was no significant correlation between gestational age and clitoral size or glans size, but significant negative correlation was found between birth weight and clitoral size or glans size.

The medium-large cladoceran species Simocephalus spp. predominantly occur in habitats with developed aquatic vegetation. Accordingly, due to Simocephalus' high contribution to zooplankton community biomass in the lake's littoral zone and wetland habitats, estimating their biomass is important to understand the matter cycling based on biological interactions within the aquatic food web. In this study, we reviewed the length-weight regression equations used previously to estimate Simocephalus biomass, directly measured S. serrulatus' body specification (length, width and area) and their biomass(dry weight) using instruments such as a microscopic digital camera and a microscale, and performed regression analysis between each other. When S. serrulatus biomass was estimated using the equation (Kawabata and Urabe, 1998) presented in 『Biomonitoring Survey and Assessment Manual』, Korea, errors between estimates and measures were relatively large compared to the S. serrulatus species-specific biomass estimate equation developed by Lemke and Benke (2003). In addition, both equations showed not only increasing trends in error (estimate-measure) with increasing S. serrulatus' body length, but also in error variance among similar-sized individuals. The results of regression analysis with dry weight by body specifications indicated that the most appropriate equation for estimating the biomass of S. serrulatus was derived from the width-dry weight exponential regression equation (R²=0.9555). The review and development study of such species-specific biomass estimation equations for zooplankton can be used as a tool to understand their role and function in aquatic ecosystem food webs.

Eddy current standard including an artificial slot for the calibration of absolute type surface probe was fabricated. Developed eddy current standard has the electric conductivity and dimensions, and contains artificial slot as established in ASTM E 1629. The width and depth of artificial slot are 0.1 mm and 0.5 mm respectively. This slot was only possible to measure the depth on the two side edges, and impossible for the middle part with general measurement tools. The ultrasonic test method was applied for measuring depth of the middle part of the artificial slot in the standard. Using this method the dimension could be measured successfully with uncertainty about $15\;{\mu}m$. Calibration of eddy current standard for the absolute probe can be performed by this technique.

This study presents the effects of micro-geometries on the swimming behavior of Pseudomonas aeruginosa. First, we have measured parameters of single-cell motility including cell speed, run duration time, and tumble angle under two dimensional space. The results are used to calculate motility coefficients in the width of microchannels ranging from 10 to $100{\mu}m$. Since the single-cell motility parameters measured depend on the interaction of flagella with the microchannel wall, the duration time of the running cell in restricted geometries is distinctively different. Therefore, the motility of bacteria is decreased by restricted geometries. This study suggests that microfluidic approach is useful tool for the analysis of bacterial motility under the restricted space and rapid analytical tool.

Various types of wooden relics are being unearthed following the full-scale excavation in Wolseong palace site, Gyeongju in Korea. In particular, a large number of relics were found in the moat surrounding the Wolseong Fortress. This study attempted to secure basic data on the shields of the Silla era through species identification, radiocarbon dating, and shape analysis of the two wooden shields excavated from the Wolseong moat. As a result of the radiocarbon dating, it was confirmed that the shields were made of wood procured in the period between the mid-4th century and the early 5th century. The species identification confirmed that the body of the relic was made with Pinus soft pine group and the handle with Zelkova serrata. It was also confirmed that the excavated wooden shield was made by first marking a thin line on a flat grain board, then marking double concentric circles and perforating small holes. The distance between the division lines is constant at about 6cm, and spaces between them are colored in red and black. The shape analysis estimated that two artifacts were more than 50cm and 36cm in width, respectively.

The assessment of the light trespass in terms of light pollution is difficult due to the complexity of light environments. As a result, the light pollution research has examined the influences of light pollution using simulation program such as RELUX. However, there still exists a differences between the real measurement value and the simulation value for the light trespass. In this paper, we analyzed the light trespass using the RELUX simulation program, and compared results with real measurement values. In this study, the regions (Seoul, Incheon, etc.) were investigated regarding the light trespass for outdoor lighting. The survey of vertical illuminance was analyzed measuring point (more than 2 point) out the window that was expected to light trespass for the higher anticipated to illumination. The illuminational predicted values for the RELUX program were compared with maximum one. As a result of this study, the illuminational errors between the measurement values and predicted values for the simulation were examined from -0.97 lx to 0.65 lx except 2.08 lx and -7.70 lx. The light trespass was analyzed the higher by how much the located close to the height, length, width of the outdoor lighting for the window. For measuring predicted values using RELUX, it was not sufficiently considered in the simulation conditions because of environmental factors and investigator error etc. Limitations of this study include the limited number of measurements, and greater field data is required in future studies.

연성 PCB(flexible printed circuit board)는 현재 노트북 PC와 디지털 카메라등에 적용되며, 굴곡성이 강하고 소형화 및 조립에 용이하여 주로 기판 사이나주기판과 외부 커넥터사이에 데이터의 전송매체로써 널리 사용되는 핵심부품이다. 근래에 개발되는 PCB 기반의 고성능 신호처리회로들은 데이터 전송율이 수백 MHz에서 수 GHz에 이르고 있으며, 신호선과 유전체, 접지판의 구조적 특성에 따라서, 반사 효과와 같은 신호무결성 문제들이 파생되어 신호의 최대성능을 제한하게된다. 이에 따라 적절한 임피던스 제어를 통하여 고성능신호들의 왜곡을 상쇄시키는 기술이 중요하게 되었다. 본 논문에서는 연성 PCB 전송라인을 위한 임피던스 모델을 대상으로 각 모델의 주요 특징 및 정확성을 분석하였다. 연성 PCB의 전송라인은 보통 전통적인 마이크로스트립 라인의 특성 임피던스 모델에 비해 신호선의 너비가 크며, 이를 반영한 개선된 수학적 임피던스 모델들이 제안되어 있다. 따라서 본 논문은 기존의 마이크로스트립 전송라인과 연성 PCB 전송라인에 적합한 수학적 모델들을 이용하여 신호 무결성 문제를 모의할 수 있는 CAE(computer-aided engineering) 도구의 임피던스 측정 결과를 비교 및 분석하였다.

In this paper, we propose a method that directly converts 3D CAD files for handheld phones designed by a commercial CAD S/W, PATRAN, to FDTD modeling with 1mm resolution. To qualify the accuracy of this method, we compared the calculation of radiation pattern using 3D transient far zone transformation with the measured results by gain comparison method in anechoic chamber and the difference is less than 0.5 dB. The calculation of magnetic field distributions on the front of handheld phones has been done to find a factor contributes to SAR. The result showed up the H-field in the width direction of the phone gives more dominant effect than the field in the length or inside to the front direction.
