Diverse accessories are used in automobiles, such as navigation systems, front and rear cameras, spoilers, and sun visors. Sun visors block sunlight so that drivers can drive safely with a better view, and they are used in many automobile designs. However, when large plastic products are manufactured using injection molding, there are many difficulties that develop, like weld lines, short shots, flow marks, imperfections, and distortion. In this study, a CAE simulation was conducted based on previous results to predict potential problems in the injection molding of large products. The flow characteristics up to complete charge for the melting resins were captured using a computer-aided engineering simulation. The temperature departure on the front part of a flow was about $10^{\circ}C$ and very stable. The practical ejecting time of the cold runner was about 70 seconds in the simulation. Finally, the capability of a suitable injection machine was calculated and recommended by prediction of the injection pressure and the die clamping force.

Low-grade fibromyxoid sarcoma (LGFMS) is very rarely seen, and it commonly arises from the deep soft tissues of the lower extremities. Histologically, it is characterized by the presence of bland spindle cells with mainly storiform pattern of growth, set in alternating areas with a myxoid or fibrous stroma. The immunohistochemical reaction of this tumor permits a positive diagnosis of low grade fibromyxoid sarcoma and allows its distinction from a number of other benign and malignant soft tissue tumor. We report this rare case together with the review of the literature.

In this study, we proposed a novel concept of electric sun visor comprising a dark, see-through sun shade material that ensures unimpaired driver's vision with continuous control of the shade position. The shade extending from the windshield base along its surface may be subjected to severe vibration during driving unless the design parameters are carefully selected. A prototype was tested to collect acceleration data during driving. Based on the test data, an ADAMS dynamics model was validated. The mechanism of sun visor was optimized to minimize vibration based on the dynamics model, experimental design, and response surface method.

In this paper, automatic sunvisor system is introduced for driver's safety and convenience. This system has the mechanism which keeps the sun off without obstruction of driver's sight. The mechanism can make the sunvisor move forward or rotate left while remaining inside inner roof. The control system consists of a CPU, a motor driver, light sensors, and the algorithm that can control the movement of sunvisor efficiently. When the light sensors take the sun light, they give the signal to the CPU and the CPU calculates the best position of the sunvisor with the information of driver's eyes height. Then, the CPU gives the signal to motors that can move the sunvisor.

A dual-level low voltage differential signalling (DLVDS) circuit is proposed aiming at reducing transmission lines for a LCD driver IC. We apply two data to the proposed DLVDS circuit as inputs. Then, the transmitter converts two inputs to two kinds of fully differential signals. In this circuit, two transmission lines are sufficient to transfer two inputs while keeping the LVDS feature. However, the circuit has a common mode bias fluctuation due to difference of the input bias and the reference bias. We compensate the common mode bias fluctuation using a feedback circuit of the current source bias. The receiver recovers the original input data through a level decoding circuit. We fabricated the proposed circuit using $0.25{\mu}m$ CMOS technology. The simulation results of proposed circuit shows 1-Gbps/2-line data rate and 35mW power consumption at 2.5V supply voltage, respectively.

홈 제어 네트워크는 전력선으로 대표되는 물리적 네트워크를 기반으로 저속의 신뢰도 있는 통신을 한다. 현재 홈 제어 네트워크의 표준으로 거론되고 있는 것들은 CEBUS, EIB, LonWorks 등이 있다. 본 논문에서는 ETRI에서 작년에 개발한 론웍스(LonWorks) 시스템을 구성 관리하는 서버 소프트웨어인 LonWare(version 2.0)의 다중 바인딩을 지원하기 위한 연결(Connections) 구조를 제안한다. Echelon사에서 제안하는 LonWorks 시스템의 구성관리 도구로서의 LonMaker는 자체적으로 개발한 LNS (LonWorks Network Service)라고 하는 비 표준화된 구성 관리 기술을 통해서 네트워크를 관리하도록 지원하며, 상기한 LNS를 인프라로 활용하는 도구로서, LNS는 빌딩 혹은 가정 내에 LonWorks 네트워크로 연결되어 있는 디바이스들에 대한 정보를 DB화하여 구축된 자료를 기반 으로 디바이스들간에 연동이 가능하도록 지원한다. 그러나 고가이며, 바인딩 과정 시 론웍스 네트워크 상에 필요 이상의 패킷을 발생시켜 전력선 채널의 Bandwidth를 감소시키며, 또한 바이딩 과정을 마치는데 걸리는 시간을 증가시킨다. 이에 본 논문에서는 다중 바이딩을 지원하는 홈 네트워크 구성 관리 서버 소프트웨어의 연결 구조를 통해서 LonWare v2.0의 유니캐스트(unicast) 바이딩시 발생 했던 모든 문제를 제거하고, 바인딩에 필요한 패킷을 최적화 하여 바인딩에 걸리는 시간을 단축시키며, 성능의 주요한 요소인 디바이스의 리소스를 최소화하는 방법으로 접근하여 바인딩 시 처리능력의 한계를 가지고 있는 뉴런칩 기반의 론웍스 디바이스의 시스템 사양에 영향을 주지 않도록 제안하였다. 제안된 리눅스 기반의 홈 네트워크 구성 관리 소프트웨어의 다중 바인딩 기능을 통해 론웍스 네트워크상의 다양한 디바이스들간의 네트워크 다양화와 분산화 기능을 얻을 수 있었고, 기존의 고가의 해외 솔루션인 Echelon사의 LonMaker 소프트웨어를 사용하지 않고도 국내의 순수 솔루션인 리눅스 기반의 LonWare 3.0 다중 바인딩 기능을 통해 저 비용으로 홈 네트워크 구성 관리 서버 시스템 개발에 대한 비용을 줄일 수 있다.

Hyponatremia which is due to excessive sodium loss in the urine and decrease in extracellular fluid volume following an acute or chronic central nervous system injury, has been conjunctively described as cerebral salt wasting syndrome (CSWS). This syndrome is often confused with dilutional hyponatremia due to inappropriate secretion of antidiuretic hormone. Accurate diagnosis and management are mandatory for improvement of the course of the disease. This report describes a case of a 31-year-old male patient with CSWS associated with tuberculous meningitis. The patient exhibited hyponatremia, polyuria, excessive natriuresis, volume depletion, and hypotension. He was diagnosed to manifest CSWS and was treated by administration of fluids, salt, and fludrocortisone. After the respective treatments, symptoms of polyuria and hypotension were gradually resolved and hyponatremia was corrected.

The X-ray detector by liquid crystal with front light was proposed and verified by a X-ray image. The proposed detector utilizes the visible light instead of the electric signal by transistor. Therefore, it shows low noise and can be fabricated at low cost. The liquid crystal detector uses the orientation change of the liquid crystal molecule by conductivity change of the photoconductive layer. We can get the X-ray image from the transmitted light through the liquid crystal. The X-ray dose was calibrated from the measured transmittance of the visible light after comparison to the reference transmittance curve of the liquid crystal. The amorphous Se was used for photo con ducting layer and parylene was used for the liquid crystal alignment instead of the conventional alignment layer which needs high-temperature process over 200℃. The proposed X-ray detector can decrease the X-ray dose by high sensitivity which was verified by simulation. After the fabrication of the X-ray detector, the X-ray image was obtained as a function of the bias voltage to the liquid crystal. 10 lines/mm resolution was obtained from the line pattern and we will apply it to the 17inch diagonal liquid crystal X-ray detector with 3π retardation.

Brain abscesses in neonates are extremely rare and usually occur in patients with certain risk factors. A 1-month-old boy presented at the hospital with fever and irritability. As a result of preterm delivery and low birth weight, he had a history of admission to the neonatal intensive care unit. Neuroimaging revealed a large, space-occupying lesion in both frontal lobes, which was suspected to be an abscess with the midline shifting to the right. With a single aspiration and abscess drainage along with concurrent prolonged parenteral antibiotic therapy, the patient showed an excellent treatment outcome with normal development. The focus will be placed on minimally invasive surgical management as well as positive outcomes.

Angiofollicular lymph node hyperplasia (AFLNH) with well marginated lymphoid masses, is a rare benign disease of unknown etiology. The majority of the disease develop intrathoracically. Histologically this disease can be divided into the hyaline-vascular and the plasma cell types with the hyaline-vascular type prevailing. The plasma cell variant has been associated with nephrotic syndrome, anemia, growth failure, fever, hyperglobulinemia, peripheral neuropathy, and hypoalbuminemia. Surgical resection is known to be treatment of choice in most cases, and radiotherapy is reserved for advanced, unresectable lesions. We report a complete remission of AFLNH in a case treated by sugical excision followed by irradiation.
