An improved packer and injection system was developed to improve the efficiency of excavation by hydraulic rock splitting by reducing vibration and noise. Field testing of the system found hydraulic fractures limited in expansion and extension due to the loss of injection pressure by leackage from the cracks, and then the single packer applied to injection hole allowed to produce a sufficient tensile displacement for rock excavation. Numerical analysis based on the field test data could explain the development of cracks in the field experiments.

A 57-year-old man with dyspnea was transferred to our institution. Echocardiography demonstrated grade III aortic valve regurgitation with a bicuspid aortic valve. The preoperative coronary angiography showed a left single nary artery. Replacement of the aortic valve was performed. Ventricular fibrillation developed during weaning patient of cardiopulmonary bypass after aortotomy repair. An anomalous origin of the coronary arteries is an incidental finding. However, in patients who are undergoing aortic valve replacement, a can significantly complicate the procedure. If this is present, then it is imperative that the clearly identified and the required procedure should be modified to avoid injury to these.

Recently, several versatile approaches via limited incision have been developed for minimally invasive cardiac surgery. As the incision is limited, it is often dfficult to get a satisfactory operative field, especially for the manipulation of two separate lesions such as simultaneous mitral and aortic valve disease with a single limited incision. Here, we describe a case of successful double valve replacement via ministernotomy, which was followed by two cases of minimally invasive aortic valve replacement via transsternal approach. The operative field was unexceptionally satisfactory and the postoperative patient's acceptance was high. The methodology is described with a review of the relevant literatures.

Rockfall protection fences are used for diminishing rockfall damage in roads side slopes. In order to install the fences in effective way, the conditions of rock slopes and total predicted impact energy of fa11ing rock should be considered. However, the fences have been constructed without any consideration for lithology, height and slope angle of rock slope in Korea. In addition, the information about the performance of the protection fences, which should be evaluated by in-situ test or laboratory test in order to check out the practical use in the field, is not available. Therefore, in design manual for the rockfall protection fence, the specific details for the installation of this type of fence are not provided yet. The full sized rockfall in situ test was carried out for the calculation of falling energy of rock and the evaluation of the maximum energy absorbing capacity of fence. For this test, the rock slopes whose heights are about 20 m and dip angle of 65 degree, have been chosen. This is because those geometries are mean height and slope angle of most road cut slopes along Korean national highway. Based on the preliminary simulation procedure, four different sizes of concrete ball (0.7, 1.3, 2.3 and 4.3 ton) were prepared and flour different types of protection fence were constructed. The results of this test provide information about the maximum energy absorbing capacity of the fence, kinetic energy of rockfall and restitution coefficient, and these results can be utilized in the establishment of rockfall fence design and construction manual.

Purpose: The purpose of this study was to evaluate the posterior cruciate ligament (PCL) reconstruction with single bundle, single-incision technique using Achilles tendon and tibialis anterior allograft with ligament remnant preservation. Materials and Methods: Twenty six patients underwent PCL reconstruction was included. There were 21 males and 5 females. Mean age was 32 years. Used graft was a fresh frozen Achilles tendon allograft (group I, 14 cases) and tibialis anterior allograft (group II, 12 cases). Arthroscopic PCL reconstruction was performed using transtibial, single-incision and single bundle technique with remnant preserving as possible. For clinical evaluation, range of motion, posterior drawer test, Lysholm score, Tegner activity scale, International Knee Documentation Committee (IKDC) grade and posterior stress radiograph were used. The mean follow-up period was 21.6 months (12-40 months). Associated injuries were 5 medial collateral ligament injuries, which were treated by conservative method. Results: Range of motion (ROM) was returned to normal range in 24 cases, but ROM deficit under $10^{\circ}$ flexion was 2 cases at final follow-up period. Preoperative posterior drawer test was 17 cases in grade II and 9 cases in grade III. At final follow-up 13 cases returned within normal grade, 7 cases grade I and 6 cases grade II posterior instability. Lysholm mean score was improved from preoperatively 62 to 90 at final follow-up period. Tegner activity mean scale improved from preoperatively 3.5 to 5.6 at final follow-up period. IDKC grade was grade A was 3 cases, grade B 17 cases, grade C 6 cases. In posterior stress radiograph, posterior displacement was improved from mean 12 mm preoperative to 4.5 mm at final follow-up. There were no statistical differences between two groups in clinical evaluations. There were two cases of re-rupture of graft at the bone-tendon junction in group I. Conclusion: We had successful results of PCL reconstruction with single-incision, single bundle technique using Achilles and tibialis anterior allograft without difference between two groups in patients with PCL injury. There were more re-rupture of graft in Achilles tendon group.

해상용(offshore) 부이(bouy)는 선박의 항로를 지시하거나 암초, 침몰선 등 항해상의 위험물을 알리기 위해 사용 되며, 야간을 위해 등화장치를 설치한 것을 등부표라 한다. 등부표는 야간 점등을 위해 자체 전력 생산시스템을 갖추고 있으나, 기존의 태양광을 이용한 전력 시스템은 해상 환경에 따른 제약이 많아 안정적인 운영이 어려우므로 풍력 발전기(wind turbine)를 이용한 하이브리드 전력 생산시스템으로의 전환이 필요한 실정이다. 선행 연구는 수직축(vertical axis) 양력(lift) 및 항력(drag) 조합형 해상용 풍력발전기 개발에 대하여 수행하였으나, 본 논문에서는 풍력발전기의 효율 증대를 위해 날개 길이 및 후면부 절개 비율에 따른 수직축 풍력발전기 특성에 대하여 연구하였다. 풍력발전기의 설치조건은 선행연구와 동일하게 등명구 교체 작업을 원활하게 하기 위하여 설치 공간을 $1m{\times}1m$로 제한하였으며, 등부표의 구조를 고려하여 최상단에 지지 프레임을 별도로 구성 하였다. 풍력발전기의 블레이드는 0.6mm의 알루미늄 박판을 절곡하여 NACA 4418의 외형을 가지도록 제작하였고, 블레이드 설계 시 에어포일의 후면부를 절개하여 양력과 항력을 효과적으로 이용하며 저속과 고속에서 높은 효율을 가지도록 설계하였다. 또한 블레이드 날개 길이와 후면부 절개 비율에 따른 풍력발전기 특성을 실험을 통해 비교하여 기준 해상 풍속에서 블레이드 설계 최적화를 수행하였으며 비교 모델 대비 약32% 발전량이 증가한 설계변수 조합을 구하였다.

Background: Among the various techniques for the adequate exposure of the mitral valve, the extended transseptal approach is the essential prerequisite for accurate repair or replacement of the mitral apparatus. But the efficacy and safty of the extended transseptal approach has not determined in Korea yet. Materials and methods: Retrospective data of 80 consecutive patients, operated from September 1992 to July 1997 were reviewed. Seventy- eight patients underwent mitral valve replacement and 2 patients underwent excision of left atrial myxoma. Thirty-eight of 78 patients had other concomitant procedures such as aortic valve replacement(n=22), tricuspid annulopasty(n=14), coronary artery bypass graft(n=1) and closure of ventricular septal defect(n=1). Mean follow up was 23.3±15.0 months and total follow up was 1792 patient-months. Results: The hospital mortality rate was 3.8%(3 patients). Two deaths were due to low cardiac output and one due to postoperative bleeding of coagulopathy. Among the 46 patients who had atrial fibrillation preoperatively, 45 had atrial fibrillation postoperatively and 1 converted to sinus rhythm. All 34 patients who were in normal sinus rhythm preoperatively remained in sinus rhythm after the operation. Mean aortic cross clamping time was 62 minutes for isolated mitral procedure and 90 minutes for concomitant procedures. There were no specific complications related to this approach. Conclusions: We suggest that the extended transseptal approach is an easy and good method for mitral valve surgery, especially in patients with small sized left atrium.

This study applied a hydraulic rock splitting system equipped with a hybrid packer to the bench-cut method. The hybrid packer system is an improvement of the packer developed in previous studies; it is designed efficiently to reduce vibration and noise during rock excavation by combining the two functions of inducing hydraulic fractures using injection pressure and then expanding and extending them using a rubber packer. Field experiments assessed the efficiency of rock excavation with respect to the injection conditions; the adjusted experimental conditions included the distance from the free surface and the test holes drilled at the top of the slope and the injection settings. Using a separation of 5 m left some unexcavated parts, but using a separation of 1 m left no unexcavated parts. The hydraulic fractures generated by the injection pressure developed generally parallel to the free surface and expanded and extended as the rubber packer expanded, thus facilitating bench-cut excavation. For hydraulic rock splitting to be broadly applicable to bench-cut rock excavation, it is important to accumulate results from many field experiments conducted under varying experimental conditions for various types of rockmass.
