After giuing some anti-high blood pressure medicine of boiled-compressed fluid and 5-Kinds factors(Hydralazine, Verapamil, Clonidine, Furosemide and Hydrochlorothiazide with Kangsimsan to animals in single or together. I got the following conclusion in comparing blood-pressure and pulse of circulating system with urinating operation. 1. By joint-use of Kangsimsan and Hydralazine. it was found out that the effect of blood-pressure lowering continues longer in together-use than in single. And I coule see that the number of pulse increased. 2. By joint-use of Kangsimsan and Verapamil. the blood-pressure lowering operation was kept better in together-use than in single. the number of pulse was not affected any. 3. By joint-use of Kangsimsan and Clonidine the blood-pressure lowering operation was not found out any concrete result. 4. By joint-use of Kangsimsan and Furosemide. the Remarkble effect of Urinization was recognized to be much better in joint-use than in single. 5. By joint-use of Kangsimsan and Hydrochlorothiazide. the suppressing effect of urinization was recognized to be much better in joint-use than in single. Therefore in consideration of the above study and observation. when the joint-use of Kangsimsan and the blood-pressure lowering medicine. Hydralazine and Verapamil. the period of blood-pressure lowering was kept and I can conclude that in case of joint-use of Furosemide, a kind of good urinization. the effect of urinization by Furosemide is increased, but that of Hydrochlorothiazide is disturbed.

Quantitative analysis compare to dynamic characteristic change of the regional cerebral blood volume(rCBV) after development of cerebral fat embolism in cats using perfusion magnetic resonance(MR) Imaging. Twenty cats were used. Linoleic acid (n=11) were injected into the internal carotid artery using microcatheter through the transfemoral approach. Polyvinyl alcohol (Ivalon) (n=9) was injected as a control group. Perfusion MR images were obtained at 30 minutes and 2 hours after embolization, based on T2 and diffusion-weighted images. The data was time-to-signal intensity curve and ${\Delta}R_2^*$ curve were obtained continuously with the aid of home-maid image process algorithm and IDL(interactive data Banguage, USA) softwares. The ratios of rCBV increased significantly at 2 hours compared with those of 30 minutes (P<0.005). In conclusion, cerebral blood flow decreased in cerebral fat embolism immediately after embolization and recovered remarkably in time course. It is thought that clinically informations to dynamic characteristic change of the cerebral hemodynamics to the early finding in cerebral infarction by diffusion weighted imaging(DWI) and perfusion weighted imaging(PWI).

Spot welding is the primary method of joining sheet metals in the automotive industry. As automobiles are subjected to fatigue loading, some spot welds may fracture before the whole system has failed. This local fracture of spot welds may lead to change in the dynamic response and consequently affect fatigue behavior of an automobile. Therefore, this change in dynamic response should be taken into consideration to assess the fatigue life of structures subjected to spectrum loading, such as automobiles. In this study, vibration fatigue analysis was performed by taking into consideration the change in the dynamic response due to accumulated damage at spot-welded parts. Fatigue tests were carried out on tensile-shear spot-welded specimens under constant amplitude loading condition. And the fatigue life of spot welds under spectrum loading was predicted using vibration fatigue analysis method based on finite element analysis.

Craniosynostosis is the premature fusion of one or more sutures of either cranial vault or base. Fused sutures may impede normal growth of the calvaria, leading to characteristic skull deformities; Morphological craniosynostosis is classified descriptively. Being craniosynostosis uncorrected the deformity progresses continuously and causes an increase of intracranial pressure. The surgical involvement aims at the expansion of intracranial space as well as satisfactory achievement of craniofacial shape. Early surgical correction in infancy prevents the deformity from the further progression and possible associated complication of high intracranial pressure. A long period of follow-up is essential to asses the outcome of an effectiveness of the surgery. measurement of intracranial volume has been concerned in medical personnel and anthropologists for many years. A reliable and accurate measurements of the intracranial volume facilitates to make a diagnosis and treatment of craniosynostosis. Pre-and postoperative change of intracranial volume was evaluated with 3D CT scanning in 12 cases of craniosynostosis who underwent frontal advancement and total cranial vault remodeling. Increased intracranial volume is attributed to surgical release of craniosynostosis and natural growth. We conceive that the intracranial volume is significantly increased after surgical correction of fused cranial sutures and along with natural growing. A procedure of frontal advancement and total cranial vault remodeling is very useful to correct such a deformity as craniosynostosis. And also 2 cases out of five mentally retarded patients improved remarkably and Forehead retrusion or temporal depression followed in another two cases.

The aortic inclusion technique is frequently used in the original Bentall's procedure for the control of excessive postoperative bleeding. Although this procedure has improved the outcome of patients with aortic root disease, there is a high incidence of both early and late complications, including coronary artery stenosis, kinking or pseudoaneurysm formation at the coronary suture lines. Pseudoaneurysm of the ascending aorta is a relatively rare, but fatal complication, which occurs after wrap-inclusion composite graft replacement. Herein, the case of a 45-year-old female, who developed a perigraft aortic pseudoaneurysm 10 years after a Bentall's procedure (wrap-inclusion technique), but was successfully managed using the Cabrol's method, is reported.

The purpose of this study is the displacement and velocity dependence evaluation of I type and S type metallic dampers. For this purpose, 12 metallic damper specimens are prepared and dependence test are performed. Test variables are strut type, displacement and velocity dependence. From the evaluation results of dependence tests, number of cycles are fully exceeded than minimum 5 cycles described in ASCE 7-10. According to displacement dependence test results, larger target displacement (50mm) shows lower cyclic numbers and cumulated energy dissipated area than lower target displacement (25mm). Also it show higher strength and early failure than short target displacement. In velocity dependence evaluation, fast target velocity (60mm/sec) shows lower cyclic numbers and cumulated energy dissipated area than target velocity (40mm/sec). As a results of basic properties, dependence evaluation and cumulated energy dissipated area evaluation, dependence capacity of S type metallic damper is far superior than I type.

The shortage of bearing capacity and settlement, shear deformation may occur when constructing a structure such as harbor, airport and bridge on soft ground such as marine clay, silty clay, sandy soil because it is very soft. The various ground improvement methods were applied to obtain preceding settlement of soft ground and strength increase. The vertical drain method has been used to reduce the required time for consolidation of the soft ground. Especially, the PBD (Plastic Board Drain) has been widely used among in the vertical drain method. In this study, a behavior of characteristic was evaluated by operating a compound drainage capacity test about the PBD (Plastic Board Drain) method applied in soft clay in deep depth. As a result, the settlement gradually occurred with increase of surface load. The consolidation settlement was processed with dissipation of pore pressure after surface load of $500kN/m^2$. Accordingly, it was found that change of settlement through load steps was resulted from dissipation of pore pressure. It was also found that the drainage capacity of vertical drains was considerably reduced with pressure increase and time elapse.

RUSLE(revised universal soil loss equation) has been widely used for estimating soil loss. It is very difficult to validate the model estimation since the calculated soil loss should be compared with the survey data for quantification. The input variables for RUSLE model were estimated to grid cell for raster analysis in Bosung basin. Both reconnaissance(1:250,000) and detailed(1:25,000) soil maps were used to derive the input variables for soil erodibility factor. Soil loss calculated using RUSLE were compared to the unit sediment deposit surveyed by KICT(Korea Institute of Construction Technology, 1992) in Bosung basin for assessment. Unit sediment deposit from the cell size of 120m and 150m were the closest to the survey data in 1:250,000 and 1:25,000 map scale, respectively.

The use of induction motors has been recently increasing in a variety of industrial sites, and they play a significant role. This has motivated that many researchers have studied on developing fault detection and classification systems of induction motors in order to reduce economical damage caused by their faults. To early identify induction motor faults, this paper effectively estimates spectral envelopes of each induction motor fault by utilizing a linear prediction coding (LPC) analysis technique and an expectation maximization (EM) algorithm. Moreover, this paper classifies induction motor faults into their corresponding categories by calculating Mahalanobis distance using the estimated spectral envelopes and finding the minimum distance. Experimental results show that the proposed approach yields higher classification accuracies than the state-of-the-art conventional approach for both noiseless and noisy environments for identifying the induction motor faults.
