방사성폐기물 처분연구의 일환으로 단열 암반지역의 지하수 유동에 있어서 각 단열조의 투수량계수를 알아보기 위하여 연구지역에 설치된 3기의 시추공에서 초음파 검층, 정압주입시험 및 유동차원 해석을 수행하였다. 단열은 방향성, 틈의 크기 등의 그 분포 특성으로 인해 각 시험구간내의 지하수 유동에 있어서, 유동형태 및 단열투수량계수를 좌우하므로 일반적으로 수리특성에 널리 이용되는 다공성매질의 연속체 개념을 통한 해석의 적용에 신중성을 고려할 필요가 있다.

영상 분할은 임상에서의 진단과 분석 및 3차원 가시화를 위해 선행되어야 할 필수 과정이다. 의료영상은 영상이 가지는 데이터 자체의 고유한 제약들과 해부학적 변이성 때문에 영상분할에 어려움이 있다. 본 논문에서는 의료영상의 분할을 위해 스네이크의 새로운 외부 힘으로 Gradient Vector Flow(GVF)를 이용한 방법을 제안한다. 제안된 방법은 2차원 의료영상에서 에지 맵(edge map)을 구하고, GVF을 계산하여 스네이크의 경계선과 같이 관심 있는 특징의 에너지 함수가 최소가 되는 GVF 스네이크(snake)를 구한다. 제안된 방법을 초음파영상과 자기공명영상 같은 의료영상의 분할에 적용한 결과 기존의 스네이크와 달리 잡음이나 오목한 부분이 있는 객체들을 성공적으로 분할하였다.

In this paper, ultrasonic images of 25MHz bandwidth were acquired by applying peak value variation, time average and depth profile algorithm to acoustic microscopy and its performance was compared and analysed with each other. In the time average algorithm, total reflecting pulse wave from a spot on the coin was converted to digital data in time domain and average value of the converted 512 data was calculated in computer. Time average image was displayed by gray levels colour of acquired N x N matrix average data in the scanning area on the sample. This technique having smoothing effects in time domain make developed an ultrasonic image on a highly scattering area. In depth profile technique, time difference between the reference and the reflected signal was detected with minimum resolution performance of 2ns, thus we can acquired real 3 dimensional shape of the scanning area in accordance with relative magnitude. Through these experiments, peak value, time average and depth profile images were analysed and advantages of each algorithm were proposed.

To compensate location error of ultrasonic horn, the laser scanning system based on the galvanometer scanner is developed. It consists of the 3-Axis linear stage and the 2-Axis galvanometer scanner. To measure surface shape of three-dimensional free form surface, the dynamic focusing unit is adopted, which can maintain consistent focal plane. With combining the linear stage and the galvanometer scanner, the scanning area is enlarged. The scanning CAD system is developed by stage motion teaching and NURBS method. The laser scanning system is tested by marking experiment with the semi-cylindrical sample. Scanning accuracy is investigated by measured laser marked line width with various scanning speed.

The objective of this study was to detect the fragments generated during IV (intravenous) catheter injection of contrast medium and drug administration in a clinical setting and removal was performed by experimentally producing a phantom, and to compare the radiography, ultrasonography, and multi-detector computed tomography (MDCT) imaging and radiation dose. A 1 cm fragment of an 18 gage Teflon$^{(R)}$ IV catheter with saline was inserted into the IV control line. Radiography, CT, and ultrasonography were performed and radiography and CT dose were calculated. CT and ultrasonography showed an IV catheter fragment clinically and radiography showed no visible difference in the ability to provide a useful image of an IV catheter fragment modality (p >.05). Radiography of effective dose ($0.2139mSv{\cdot}Gy^{-1}{\cdot}cm^{-2}$) form DAP DAP ($0.93{\mu}Gy{\cdot}m^2 $), and dose length product (DLP) ($201mGy{\cdot}cm$) to effective dose was calculated as 0.483 mSv. IV catheter fragment were detected of radiography, ultrasonography and CT. These results can be obtained by menas of an excellent IV catheter fragment of detection capability CT. However, CT is followed by radiation exposure. IV catheter fragment confirming the position and information recommend an ultrasonography.

This work proposes an alternative pipe wall-thinning inspection method based on change of eigenfrequencies of shell vibration modes in wall-thinned pipes. It takes much time to detect wall-thinning of pipes using ultrasonic thickness gauge and only a limited number of pipes are under regular inspection. In a pipe with locally decreased thickness, stiffness varies along circumferential direction and natural frequencies of shell vibration modes of the pipe change or frequencies of same modes bifurcate into two different values. Therefore, one can monitor pipe wall-thinning by measuring change of natural frequencies or estimate wall-thinning shape qualitatively. The feasibility of the proposed method was studied by FE vibration analysis for wall-thinned pipes. Modal testing was also carried out for the pipes with artificial wall-thinned section to verify the working performance of the suggested technique.

In this paper, we represented the variation of heart cavity area in the space domain by 3-d rendering. We arranged the 2-d sequence of ultrasonic image acquired in the time domain as volumetric data, and extracted heart cavity region from 3-d data. For the segmentation of 3-d volume data, we extracted the cavity region using the method of expanding the cavity region that is same statistical property. By shading which is using light and object normal vector, we visualized the volume data on image plane.

In this paper, an efficient algorithm for estimation volume and surface area and a reconstruction algorithm for 3-dimensional graphics are presented.In order to improve computing efficiency, the graph theory is utilized and the algorithm to obtain proper contour points is developed by considering several tolerances. Search for the contour points is limited by the change of curvature of cross sectional contour to provide efficiency in searching the minimum cost path. In computer simulation of these algorithms, the results show that, for the tolerance values of 1.001 and 1.002, the execution time reduced to 66%-80% and the error for the measured value is less than 3%. The reconstructed 3-dimensional images from the cross sections can be analyzed in many directions using the graphic scheme.
