Dark band artifacts are often observed in angiograms of arteries obtained by 2D time-of-flight (TOF) angiography with saturation of veins by presaturation RF pulses. At some arteries the arterial blood velocity varies in a triphasic pattern during a cardiac cycle. The arterial blood, that is saturated by presaturation RF pulses in the saturation band, can flow back into the imaging slice during the retrograde flow phase of the triphasic variation. When such saturated retrograde flow occurs during the acquisition of the central part of the K space, a signal void can result in base images and consequently dark band artifacts can appear in angiograms. This phenomenon is experimentally demonstrated by varying the gap between the imaging slice and the saturation band. Furthermore, a new pulse sequence is proposed to eliminate the dark band artifacts by changing the profile of the saturation band front a rectangle to a ramp.

전자파에 의한 산란현상의 해석은 지금까지 주로 시간조화함수의 형태를 지닌 전원에 의한 정 상상태의 산란에 관하여 이루어졌다. 그러나 레이다나 피파괴 검사, 전송선로 점검 등의 응용에서는 주로 펄스형태의 전자파를 사용하며, 따라서 시간에 따라 변화하는 함수형태의 전원에 의한 전자파의 산란해 석이 중요한 문제로 등장하였다. 또한 통신선로에서 외부의 잡음에 대한 혼신 등을 해석하거나, 낙뢰가 송 전선로에 미치는 영향을 해석하는 데에도 펄스신호의 산란해석이 필수적이다. 일반적인 함수의 형태를 지닌 전원에 의한 산란현상을 해석하기 위해서는 전원함수를 Fourier 변환하 여 주파수 영역의 스펙트럼을 구하고, 주파수영역에서의 산란해를 이용하여 Fourier 역변환을 하여 시간 영역의 해를 구할 수 있다. 주파수 영역에서의 산란판의 해를 Fourier 역변환 하기 위해서는 적분을 행하여야 하며, 일반적으로 적분과정에서 매우 복잡한 계산이 필요하고, 산란체의 구조가 복잡하여 해석 적인 해를 구할수 없는 경우에는 해석적으로 시간영역의 해를 구하는 것이 불가능하다. 시변 함수에 의 한 산란파를 구하기 위한 수치해석적 방법으로는 모멘트방법이나 유한요소법(Finite Element Method), 경계요소법(Boundary Element Method), 유한차분법(Finite Difference Method)등이 있으며, 해석적 해 를구할 수 없는 경우에 적용할 수 있는 반면에 많은 계산량이 요구된다.

According to the component gas mixture ratio, the condition of maximum output energy, efficiency were investigated. The maximum energy, efficiency and specific energy were obtained 230 mJ, 1.6% and 1.1 J/l, respectively. The long pulse effect is observed by constructing low peaking to main capacitance ratio of 1:3.

The change of rouleau formation of red blood cells in the hand stimulated by pulse magnetic field having a maximum intensity of 0.27 Tesla and pulse duration of 0.102 msec was investigated. Before pulse magnetic field stimulus, the red blood cells of test subject were adjoined over ten and the flow of cells was slowed. However after the stimulus in the hand during 10 minutes, the red blood cells adjoined over tens was spreaded out each other and its motion was fast. Also the red blood cells of left hand unstimulated by pulse magnetic field were spreaded out each other, even though the right hand was stimulated during 10 minute. It prove that the rouleau formation of red blood cells can be improve in the whole body in spite of stimulus in the hand because the blood is flowing a whole body.

A feasibility study was performed to see the welding possibility of dissimilar thin-plat materials. These materials were welded for finding the optimum welding condition and evaluating the soundness of welding zone. The welding was attempted under the condition of laser power 500~600w, Pulse width 1.0~2.5ms and frequency 11~18Hz. In this study, the highest tensile-shear strength was observed at laser the low frequency. The suitable welding condition can be obtain at the large pulse width and the low frequency.

Conventional eddy current testing has been used for the detection of the defect-like fatigue crack in the conductive materials, such as aluminum, which uses a sinusoidal signal with very narrow frequency bandwidth, Whereas, the pulsed eddy current method uses a pulse signal with a broad bandwidth. This can allow multi-frequency eddy current testing, and the penetration depth is greater than that of the conventional eddy current testing. In this work, a pulsed eddy current instrument was developed for evaluating the metal loss. The developed instrument was composed of the pulse generator generating the maximum square pulse voltage of 40V, an amplifier controlled up to 52dB, an A/D converter of 16 bit and the sampling frequency of 20 MHz, and an industrial personal computer operated by the Windows program. A pulsed eddy current probe was designed as a pancake type in which the sensing roil was located inside the driving roil. The output signals of the sensing roil increased rapidly wich the step pulse driving voltage かn off, and the latter part of the sensing coil output voltage decreased exponentially with time. The decrement value of the output signals increased as the thickness of the aluminum test piece increased.

The risk of high power electromagnetic(HPEM) pulse exposure to the devices used in digital control system such as PLC(programmable logic controller) and communication cable is increasing. In this paper, two different frequency ranges HPEMs were exposed to those control systems to assess the each vulnerability. The vulnerability of the EUTs exposed from HPEM were analyzed and compared with a variation of distances and source power. As the EUTs were exposed to higher level of HPEM, the voltage and communication waveform of the control system had shown a distorted response. And the unshielded twisted pair(UTP) cable connected to the EUTs showed operation failures with induced voltage. However, the foiled twisted pair(FTP) cable shielded the connected device efficiently from the HPEM exposure. Therefore, the necessity of the protection measures against the vulnerability of HPEM exposure for the digital control system used in power facilities and industrial site were verified.

A simple fiber length measurement technique has been demonstrated by using a self-seeding laser oscillation of a Fabry-Perot laser diode. We induced a self-seeding laser oscillation through a closed-loop by adjusting the modulation frequency of a Fabry-Peort laser diode when the output optical pulse of the laser reinjected into the laser after passing through the closed-loop. The length of a fiber-under-test was calculated from the difference between my two modulation frequencies at which self-seeding laser oscillation occurs at a specific mode. We have experimentally confirmed the technique for various fiber lengths from 0.1 km to 75 km. The relative error between the measurement result of the proposed technique and that of a commercial instrument was less than 0.24 %. The repeatability of the proposed technique was better than 0.1 %.

A linear current-pulse discriminator consisting: of a transistor monostable multivibrator and a Si tunnel diode is described. The input currant pulse range is about 50$\mu$A~5.23mA. The measured maximum linearity deviation is $\pm$0.75% in the input current pulse range mentioned above. The pulse resolving ability of the discriminator measured depends upon the bias current through the T, D. ; and, under the reverse bias current of 3mA, the resolving time is 2rs if allow the excess pulse amplitude of 5%. The threshold stability of the discriminator depends mainly upon the stability of the peak current Ip of the T. D. ; and, under the ambient temperature variation from $0^{\circ}C$ to 5$0^{\circ}C$, no bigger threshold variation than the maximum linearity deviation, i. e. $\pm$ 0.75%, was observed.

Ionizer is used for improving manufacturing process and reducing inferior goods in the clean room. As a general rule, neutralization of the electrostatic charge is most important to make TFT-LCD, PDP and OLED. Pulse AC-static eliminator with output voltage of about 10.5kV has been used these days as neutralization device. But this device has a problem with lower performance which was caused by particles-adhesion on the electrode when it has been used for a long time. So we studied to solve the problem with lower performance using high Frequency(72kHz) static eliminator which was produced by Piezo transformer device, and compared Pulse-AC type with Piezo-electronic device such as decay time and ion balance for 10 weeks periods. As a result of this study, we found that Piezo transformer device has been maintained normal condition for 10 weeks. Also, we made the rule by this study, normally Piezo transformer device has to clean the electrode during every 11th weeks.
