We report a case of an angiosarcoma arising from the subclavian artery, a site not previously described. A 19-year-old girl, born with a rudimentary first rib, has been suffered from arterial thoracic outlet syndrome due to a complete occlusion of the third portion of the subclavian artery for 1 year. Partial claviculectomy, excision of completely occluded arterial segment, and reconstruction with great r saphenous vein graft were done. Histologic study for the subclavlan artery revealed mural type anglosarcoma. The histochemici1 staining for factor VIII related antigen was positive. The debilitating symptoms that did not allow her a normal daily life, almost subsided postoperatively. And she has remained well with no clinical evidence of disease for 4 months post-operation.

Today, due to the environmental regulations regarding air pollution in the EU, the use of EPS (Styrofoam) as the cushioning material in the packaging industry is decreasing. In effect, air cushioning based cushioning materials are rapidly expanding into the market and replacing EPS, due to their excellent buffering ability and environmental friendliness. This is a new selective filling type air filling material manufacturing technology that affords improvements in the amount of raw materials required, its processing and its aesthetic appearance compared to the conventional air filling cushioning materials. In this study, a multi-stage air cell filling valve molding technology is developed based on selective filling technology, which allows packages to be selectively filled in various forms by applying valve forming structure technology. This multi-stage air cell filling valve molding technology is a technique in which a plurality of injection ports are formed by laminating three layers of films, viz. a first injection film, a valve film, and a second injection film having valve ends. In the conventional technology, a separate external air injection path for injecting air into a plurality of connected air bags is needed. However, in the proposed system, an external air injection path is formed inside the air bag, Due to the lack of need for an injection furnace, the raw material and process are reduced and air is injected and then discharged, while the air bag is reduced in length to 63 ~ 66% of its normal value. The outer surface of the outer air injection path is integrated inside by maintaining the original length of the cross section, while the unnecessary folded air is injected into the interior of the air bag, This smart air filling type cushioning material manufacturing technology constitutes a big improvement over the existing technologies.

Ogive parts of large-caliber ammunition in Korea are manufactured by the Press Nosing method, but this method has the disadvantage of requiring additional processes such as lubrication before and after the press process. This study proposes the possibility of applying the Swaging method to improve these shortcomings. A large-diameter shell body was manufactured in sub-scale and plastic working experiments using a swaging process were performed. We investigated whether plastic processing is possible up to 75 % of the diameter reduction rate that satisfies the final molding dimension, and whether the dimensions of the product produced by swaging molding are satisfactory as the hardness changes according to the diameter reduction rate and the increase in thickness. The test using the prototype confirmed that the hardness increased proportionally with the diameter reduction rate and by more than HV 335 at the reduction rate of 75 %. The material thickness variation tended to be similar to the theoretical calculated value, and the thickness increase rate was proportional to 65.4 % at the reduction rate of 75 %.

Injection pressure is an important factor in filling procedure for injection molded parts. In addition, weldlines should be avoided to successfully produce injection molded parts. In this study, we optimally obtained injection molding process parameters that minimize injection pressure. Then, we determined the thickness of the part to avoid weldlines. To solve the optimization problem proposed, we employed MAPS-3D (Mold Analysis and Plastics Solution-3 Dimension), a commercial CAE tool for injection molding analysis, and PIAnO (Process Integration, Automation, and Optimization) as a commercial PIDO (Process Integration and Design Optimization) tool. We integrated MAPS-3D into PIAnO, automated the analysis and design procedure, and performed optimization by employing PQRSM (Progressive Quadratic Response Surface Method) equipped in PIAnO. We successfully obtained optimization results, which demonstrates the effectiveness of our design method.

Among several types of element tests to predict soil behalf.iota in a laboratory, the torsion shear apparatus, in which the directions of principal stresses could be rotated during shearing, wra explained. In this study, this torsion shear apparatus was improved so as to be used in tests on clay specimens . And some undrained torsion shear tests u.ere performed on remolded specimens of Ko-consolidated clay to investigate the influence of reorientation of the principal stress directions on the stress-strain behavior The soil behavior by the torsion shear apparatus without torque was compared It.ith that by the conventional triaxial compression tests . The stress path, provided by both vertical loads and torque during torsion shear tests, has much effect on the stress-strain behavior, the pore pressure and the effective principal stress ratio . The rotation angle of the principal stress and the b-value were gradually increased with increasing shear strain, but converged to the values at failure.

Structural integrity of solid rocket depends on the residual reactions between constituents of its composition(post cure, migration etc.), the oxygen(or anti-oxydent) in the free volume and humidity (desiccant) under the perfect sealed condition. Mechanical Properties of composite solid propellant arising from those factors are very complex. Moreover the propulsion are faced with thermal loads from diurnal & seasonal cycle till firing. In this study, the fast evaluation method of long term mechanical properties is suggested based on Thermo-Rheological Simplicity from curing oven to cool-down stage in view point of thermal stabilization. For this subject, endurance tester having temperature control capability are devised. From the results from incremental load and strain, non-linear characteristics are discussed.

Pseudoaneurysm of the ascending aorta following cardiac surgery is very unusual and it is poten- tially fatal. We report here a fourteen year-old female patient with pseudoaneurysm of the ascending aorta following a repair of a congenital ventricular septal defect at other hospital 50 months ago. Although she had a mild superficial wound infection postoperatively, she enjoyed uneventful. life until she visited our hospital for a generalized weakness and exertional dyspnea which developed a month ago. Chest CT and echocardiogram showed partially calcified pseudoaneurysm of the ascending aorta. Two aortic defects were located on the anterolateral ascending aortic wall wkere it was suspected as a previous sites of aortic and cardioplegic cannulation. The internal wall of the pseudoaneurysm was covered with neoendothelium and intervened by septal tissue. Two defects on he aortic wall were oval in shape and about 1.5cm in the greatest diameter The defects were trimmed to make a one large de- fect and it was reconstructed with patch designed from 22mm collagen impregnated double velour Dacron graft. The postoperative course was uneventful.

A series of consolidated drained and untrained cubical triaxial tests were performed to investigate three dimensional strength characteristics of compressible sand. All specimens, which are formed by deposisting a fine sand loosely, were used. Failure strength in terms of effective stress analysis was greatly influenced by the variation of intermediate principal stress and so was failure criterion The adjusted effective frictional angles obtained by the stress state projected on the same octahedral plane showed almost same value, while the measured effective frictional angles showed considerable difference depending on the drainage conditions. Results of total stress analysis in undrained test turned out to fit Tresca's failure criterion well, but results of effective stress analysis turned out to fit Lade's failure criterion well.

In order to make a doubly-curved sheet metal effectively, a sheet metal forming process has been developed by adopting the flexibility of the incremental forming process and the principle of bending deformation which causes slight deformation in thickness. The developed process is an unconstrained forming process with no holder. For this study, the experimental equipment is set up with the roll set which consists of two pairs of support rolls and one center roll. In the experiments using aluminum sheets, it is found that the curvature of the formed sheet metal is determined by controlling the distance between supporting rolls in pairs and the forming depth of the center roll and it also depends on the thickness of the sheet metal. In order to check the effect of process parameters on the generation of sheet metal curvatures in this process, the orthogonal array is adopted. From the experimental results, among the process parameters, the distance between supporting rolls in pairs along the direction of one principal radius of curvature as well as the forming depth and the thickness of the material is shown to influence the generation of curvature in the same direction significantly. That is, the other distance between supporting rolls in pairs which are not located in the same direction of one principal radius of curvature, does not have an significant effect on the generation of the curvature in that direction. It mainly affects the generation of curvature in its own direction with the forming depth and the thickness of the material.

Electrically conducting composite films were prepared by a vapor phase in situ polymerization of pyrrole in the methyl cellulose film containing a copper(II) perchlorate. Methylcellulose had high affinity to pyrrole and was used as a matrix polymer. Conducting polypyrrole was embedded in the methylcellulose film forming a conducting network and the conductivity of the composite films ranged $10^{-1}$ to $10^{-7}S/cm$. The conductivities of conducting composite films were dependent on the nature of the matrix polymers, concentration of oxidant and polymerization time. In situ polymerization of pyrrole was observed in the matrix polymer and confirmed by UV-vis spectra. From the results of the thermogravimetric analysis, the chemical oxidative polymerization of pyrrole in the matrix polymers did not give any negative effects on the thermal stability of the composite films. Electron micrograph of composites indicated good penetration of PPy in the matrix polymer. DMA suggested a certain degree of incompatibility of the polypyrrole in the composites.
