In this study, we quantify the residual motion artifact in 4D-CT scan using the dynamic lung phantom which could simulate respiratory target motion and suggest a simple one-dimension theoretical model to explain and characterize the source of motion artifacts in 4DCT scanning. We set-up regular 1D sine motion and adjusted three level of amplitude (10, 20, 30 mm) with fixed period (4s). The 4DCT scans are acquired in helical mode and phase information provided by the belt type respiratory monitoring system. The images were sorted into ten phase bins ranging from 0% to 90%. The reconstructed images were subsequently imported into the Treatment Planning System (CorePLAN, SC&J) for target delineation using a fixed contour window and dimensions of the three targets are measured along the direction of motion. Target dimension of each phase image have same changing trend. The error is minimum at 50% phase in all case (10, 20, 30 mm) and we found that ${\Delta}S$ (target dimension change) of 10, 20 and 30 mm amplitude were 0 (0%), 0.1 (5%), 0.1 (5%) cm respectively compare to the static image of target diameter (2 cm). while the error is maximum at 30% and 80% phase ${\Delta}S$ of 10, 20 and 30 mm amplitude were 0.2 (10%), 0.7 (35%), 0.9 (45%) cm respectively. Based on these result, we try to analysis the residual motion artifact in 4D-CT scan using a simple one-dimension theoretical model and also we developed a simulation program. Our results explain the effect of residual motion on each phase target displacement and also shown that residual motion artifact was affected that the target velocity at each phase. In this study, we focus on provides a more intuitive understanding about the residual motion artifact and try to explain the relationship motion parameters of the scanner, treatment couch and tumor. In conclusion, our results could help to decide the appropriate reconstruction phase and CT parameters which reduce the residual motion artifact in 4DCT.

The black pine logs damaged by pine wilt disease in Jeju-do were heat-treated to extend the utilization of domestic trees damaged by pine wilt disease. The heat-treatment of wood requires wood to be heated to $56^{\circ}C$ for 30 min at the core. The average moisture content and top-diameter of the black pine logs were ranged from 46% to 141% and from 180 mm to 500 mm, respectively. And the basic specific gravity and oven-dry specific gravity of the black pine logs were 0.47 and 0.52, respectively. The time required for heat-treatment at $105^{\circ}C$ temperature was ranged from 7.7 h to 44.2 h, depending on moisture content and top-diameter. The temperature distribution was used to predict the time required for heat-treatment of black pine log with various moisture contents and top-diameters using finite difference method. The thermal properties of wood including the thermal conductivity and specific heat in accordance with moisture content were calculated. Heat transfer coefficient for mixed convection in form of adding natural convection and forced convection was used for heat transfer analysis. The error between the measured and predicted values ranged from 3% to 45%. The predicted times required for heat-treatment of black pine log with 50% moisture content and 200 mm, 300 mm, and 400 mm top-diameter were 10.9 h, 18.3 h, and 27.0 h, respectively. If the initial moisture content of black pine log is 75%, heat treatment times of 13.6 h, 22.5 h, and 32.8 h were predicted in accordance with top-diameter. And if the initial moisture content of black pine log is 100%, heat treatment times of 16.2 h, 26.5 h, and 38.2 h were predicted in accordance with top-diameter. When the physical properties of logs damaged by pine wilt disease are presented, these results can be applicable to the heat-treatment of red pine and Korean pine logs as well.

밭작물 중 마늘 재배를 위한 노동력 투입시간은 2016년 기준 10a 당 126.9시간 이었고, 파종정식의 기계화율은 2015년 기준 15.1%로 조사된다. 이는 마늘 재배에 있어서 파종정식의 기계화가 노동력 절감을 위해 필요하다는 것을 보여준다. 현재의 우리나라 마늘 파종기는 점파식으로 개발, 판매되고 있는데 집개 방식 또는 버킷 방식은 파종 속도를 올리면 파종율이 떨어지기 때문에 파종 속도를 향상시키는데 한계가 있있다. 본 연구에서는 이를 보완하기 위하여 콩, 옥수수 등의 종자에 사용되는 진공식 파종 기술을 마늘에 적용하였다. 마늘의 경우 형상이 비대칭형에다가 종구별 크기, 모양, 무게가 조금씩 다르기 때문에 이론적으로 흡입구를 설계하는 어려움이 있다. 따라서 진공흡입구의 지름과 재질을 파라메터로 하여 변화를 주고 실험을 통하여 배종률 결과의 차이를 확인하였다. 그 결과 경도 $10{\pm}2$의 실리콘 재질에 지름 14mm이상에서 90%이상의 높은 배종률을 보여주었다.

고전압 펄스 성형회로의 출력 펄스를 측정하기위한 D-DOT 프로브를 설계 제작하고 그 동작 특성을 조사하였다. 이 프로브는 고전압 펄스 전송선의 외함에 전계방향과 병렬로 설치되었다. 프로브의 중심도체는 지름 4.6 mm의 구리선이고, 바깥도체는 안지름 15 mm의 알루미늄이며, 이들 도체사이에 동축의 테플론 절연체가 삽입되었다. 프로브에서 출력되는 신호는 고전압 펄스신호의 미분된 형태의 신호가 측정되므로 오실로스코프의 적분기능을 사용하였다. 실제 제작한 프로브의 교정비는 $7.7{\times}10^{12}$였으며, 컴퓨터 시뮬레이션을 통하여 얻은 교정비는 $7.38{\times}10^{12}$였다.

It is well known that the ultimate compressive strength of concrete filled tubular stub-column is higher than that of the simplified evaluating value because of the confinement effect of infilled concrete. In this paper, It is compared the experimental results of other researchers with estimated ones by using the formulae. Finally, It is shown that the predicted equation is obtained by using the numerical analysis.
