This study was carried out to develop a short term hardening method of tree seedlings of Rhus chinensis Mill., Evodia daniellii Hemsley and Parthenocissus tricuspidata(Sieb. et Zucc.) Planck for afforestation on a concave and a crack of cut-rock slope. The seedlings were grown in a cylinder shaped pot made of polyvinyl net with the soil media of peatmoss, vermiculite, clay, compost, fertilizer, and absorbant(40:25:19:15:1:0.1, v:v). They were cultivated in a greenhouse for four months and in field condition for two months. During the last three months of the growing period the seedlings were hardened by periodic desiccation and irrigation in 4 to 10 days interval. The hardened seedlings showed lower leaf water potential, higher leaf osmotic pressure, and lower T/R ratio than those before the hardening. The hardened seedlings survived well on the soil medium in the concave of cut-rock slope.

지난 수십년동안, 다양한 레이저기기를 이용하여 치아 경조직에 대한 응용 실험을 수행되었다. 그러나, 발생한 주요한 문제는 열발생과 플라즈마 형성과 같은 부작용이 지속된다는 점이었다. 실망스러운 실험결과에 따라 치아 삭제에 대한 레이저의 응용에 대한 연구가 거의 진행되지 못하였다. 본 연구의 목적은 국내에서 처음으로 개발된 얼비움레이저기기를 사용하여 다양한 에너지 수준과 다양한 펄스빈도에서 법랑질의 삭제율을 비교하고자 하였다. 본 연구에 사용된 레이저기기는 국내에서 최초로 개발된 $2.94{\mu}m$ 펄스를 $250{\mu}s$ 방출하는 얼비움야그레이저 기기이다. 기기의 에너지는 20 mJ에서 350 mJ까지 다양하게 방출하며, 최대 출력은 3.5 W이다. 22개의 치아를 에폭시 레진에 포매하고 경화하였다. 치아의 법랑질을 회전 다이아몬드 칼을 흐르는 물과 함께 사용하여 협측 또는 설측으로 평탄하게 삭제하였다. 제작된 법랑질표면은 6개의 구획으로 구분하여 에너지 수준과 펄스빈도에 따라 조사하였다. 본 연구에서 사용된 표본 수는 132개이며, 삭제율을 조사하기 위한 모든 표본은 22개의 실험 군으로 분류하였다. 실험결과는 다음과 같다. 1. 에너지 수준간에는 유의한 삭제율의 차이가 있었다. 2. 40 및 80 mJ로 조사한 경우에는 펄스빈도 간에 차이가 없었지만, 120 mJ의 출력으로 동일한 에너지를 조사한 경우에는 20 Hz가 40 또는 80 mJ로 조사한 경우 보다 가장 삭제효과가 높았다. 3. 연속조사 한 경우 조사시간 경과에 따라 법랑질의 삭제율은 증가되지 않았다. 결론적으로 효과적으로 법랑질을 삭제하기 위해서는 적절한 에너지와 펄스의 레이저를 사용해야 하며, 또한 항상 정확한 초점거리를 유지해야 할 것으로 사료된다.

In recent years, the fatigue design method by analysis for the mechanical components and the welded structures has much increased, instead of the fatigue design method by rule that has been widely used from the past days. When a fatigue design is conducted by that method, the basic informations, fatigue life curves are mainly obtained from the results of the strain controlled low cycle fatigue test. From these point of views, the low cycle fatigue test is coming to be given a much importance lately. In this paper, the strain controlled low cycle fatigue properties at room temperature in air environment were investigated for the low carbon forged steel, SF45A, and the rolled steel for the welded structure, SM 41B. Throughout the test, strain ratio, R, was maintained constant with the fully reversed condition, -1. As the experimental results, the cyclic stress-strain behaviours of the test materials were different each other, but the low cycle fatigue life-time of them appeared to show little difference in the region of this test conditions.

The high precision analysis by the p-version of the finite element method are fairly well established as highly efficient method for linear elastic problems, especially in the presence of stress singularity. It has been noted that the merits of the p-version are accuracy, modeling simplicity, robustness, and savings in user's and CPU time. However, little has been done to exploit their benefits in elasto-plastic analysis. In this paper, the p-version finite element model is proposed for the materially nonlinear analysis that is based on the incremental theory of plasticity using the constitutive equation for work-hardening materials, and the associated flow rule. To obtain the solution of nonlinear equation, the Newton-Raphson method and initial stiffness method, etc are used. Several numerical examples are tested with the help of the square plates with cutout, the thick-walled cylinder under internal pressure, and the circular plate with uniformly distributed load. Those results are compared with the theoretical solutions and the numerical solutions of ADINA

In this study, a strain-controlled fatigue test of widely-used 316L stainless steel with excellent corrosion resistance and mechanical properties was conducted, in order to assess its fatigue life. Low cycle fatigue behaviors were analyzed at room temperature, as a function of the strain amplitude and strain ratio. The material was hardened during the initial few cycles, and then was softened during the long post period, until failure occurred. The fatigue life decreased with increasing strain amplitude. Masing behavior in the hysteresis loop was shown under the low strain amplitude, whereas the high strain amplitude caused non-Masing behavior and reduced the mean stress. Low cycle fatigue life prediction based on the cyclic plastic energy dissipation theory, considering Masing and non-Masing effects, showed a good correlation with the experimental results.

This paper describes the rmtion characteristics of a particle in GIS under AC voltage. To measure the motion characteristics of the particle, a model gas chamber and parallel plain electrodes were designed and manufactured lift-off voltages of wire and spherical particles on the electrode were calculated and rreasured, and electric charge was calculated. By using a high speed carrera, the rmtion characteristics of various particles with aw}ied voltages, such as motion pattern, lift-off time, lift-off height, were analyzed 1be lift-off voltages were greatly affected by diarreters of wire and spherical particles. At voltage around lift-off voltage, the stand-up particle in vertical state rmved up and down between electrodes and the height of the lift-off particle was low. At voltage around breakdown voltage, the particle repeated vertical rotation a few times while they were being lifted off, and then, they were floating between the electrodes.trodes.

Many constitutive models for concrete have been developed to predict the nonlinear behavior of concrete members considerably. The constitutive model for reinforcing bar that include the tension stiffening effect due to the bond characteristics between steel bars and concrete is being studied but the bilinear model is generally used. It was found that the buckling of the longitudinal reinforcing bars is controlled the nonlinear behavior of hybrid precast concrete panel, which is being developed for core wall. In this study, the constitutive models that can consider the embedding and buckling effects of reinforcing bar are investigated and a new model combing these constitutive models is proposed. In order to verify the proposed model, the analysis results are compared with experimental results of the concrete wall and hybrid precast concrete panel. The analysis of embedding-effect-only modeling predicted that the deformation increases continually without the decrease in the load carrying capacity. However, the analysis results of proposed model showed good agreement with some experimental results, thus verifying the proposed computational model.

An embedded system is called a multi-mode embedded system if it performs multiple applications by dynamically reconfiguring the system functionality. Further, the embedded system is called a multi-mode multi-task embedded system if it additionally supports multiple tasks to be executed in a mode. In this Paper, we address a HW/SW partitioning problem, that is, HW/SW partitioning of multi-mode multi-task embedded applications with timing constraints of tasks. The objective of the optimization problem is to find a minimal total system cost of allocation/mapping of processing resources to functional modules in tasks together with a schedule that satisfies the timing constraints. The key success of solving the problem is closely related to the degree of the amount of utilization of the potential parallelism among the executions of modules. However, due to an inherently excessively large search space of the parallelism, and to make the task of schedulabilty analysis easy, the prior HW/SW partitioning methods have not been able to fully exploit the potential parallel execution of modules. To overcome the limitation, we propose a set of comprehensive HW/SW partitioning techniques which solve the three subproblems of the partitioning problem simultaneously: (1) allocation of processing resources, (2) mapping the processing resources to the modules in tasks, and (3) determining an execution schedule of modules. Specifically, based on a precise measurement on the parallel execution and schedulability of modules, we develop a stepwise refinement partitioning technique for single-mode multi-task applications. The proposed techniques is then extended to solve the HW/SW partitioning problem of multi-mode multi-task applications. From experiments with a set of real-life applications, it is shown that the proposed techniques are able to reduce the implementation cost by 19.0% and 17.0% for single- and multi-mode multi-task applications over that by the conventional method, respectively.

Purpose : Magnetic resonance cholangiopancreatography(MRCP) is a noninvasive method for imaging the pancreaticobiliary tree. The aim of this study was to evalute the usefulness of MRCP for the diagnosis of pancreaticobiliary diseases in children. Methods : From October 1996 to May 2001, 67 patients with obstructive jaundice and three patients with chronic recurrent pancreatitis were evaluated with abdominal ultrasonography and MRCP. The final diagnosis was based on the operative and pathologic findings with biopsy specimen including clinical and laboratory findings. Results : A total of 70 patients, consisting of 31 males and 39 females, with a mean age of $2.6{\pm}3.3$ years were studied. The final diagnosis was biliary atresia in 25, neonatal cholestasis in 18, choledochal cyst without anomalous pancreatobiliary duct union(APBDU) in nine, choledochal cyst with APBDU in seven, cholestatic hepatitis in five, chronic recurrent pancreatitis in three, sclerosing cholangitis in two, and secondary biliary cirrhosis in one case. The overall diagnostic accuracy of abdominal ultrasonography was 75.7% and that of MRCP was 97.1%. The sensitivity and specificity of MRCP were 100% and 98% for biliary atresia, 87.5% and 100% for choledochal cyst with APBDU, 100% and 100% for choledochal cyst without APBDU, sclerosing cholangitis and chronic recurrent pancreatitis, respectively. Conclusion : MRCP is a fast, non-invasive and reliable method for diagnosing pancreaticobiliary diseases in children and will be the standard diagnostic procedure in the future.

Hyperimmunoglobulin E syndrome (HIES) is a rare immunodeficiency disease which is characterized by high serum IgE levels, eczema, and recurrent infections. Herein we present the case of a patient with HIES associated with STAT3 gene ($stat3$) mutation. A 16 year-old girl was admitted to our hospital due to hemoptysis caused by pneumonia with bronchiectasis. She had a history of recurrent skin and respiratory tract infections, such as pneumonia caused by MRSA (methicillin-resistant $Staphylococcus$ $aureus$) and $Pseudomonas$ $aeruginosa$. On physical examination, a broad round shaped nose, oral thrush, and chronic eczematous skin rash over her whole body were found. Laboratory data showed an elevated eosinophil count ($750/{\mu}L$) and total IgE level (5,001 U/mL). The patient's National Institutes of Health (NIH) score for HIES was 44. Direct sequencing of the STAT3 gene revealed that the patient was heterozygous for a missense mutation in the DNA binding domain of the STAT3 protein (c.1144C>T, p. Arg382Trp). HIES should be suspected in patients with recurrent infections and can be confirmed by clinical scoring and genetic analysis.
