Moving average precipitation provides periodic precipitation patterns by solving precipitation irregularities. However, due to uncertain moving average periods, excessive data smoothing occurs, which limit the possibility to analyze groundwater levels in the short term. Nonetheless, groundwater level fluctuation can compensate these limitations as it can calculate appropriately for unit time and verify the effect of precipitation penetrated into groundwater in a short time period. In this study, the characteristics of groundwater level were evaluated using groundwater level fluctuation to compensate for limitations of groundwater level analysis using moving average precipitation. In addition, the groundwater quality was investigated using the electrical conductivity fluctuation. The study site was Hyogyo-ri, Yesan-si, Chungcheongnam-do. Four observation wells and an automated weather system were used. The correlation between groundwater level fluctuation and precipitation (Case 1) and the correlation between groundwater level and moving average precipitation (Case 3) were compared. In the analysis for 1 hour data, the correlation coefficient of Case 1 was higher than that of Case 3, and in the analysis for 1 day data, the correlation coefficient of Case 3 was higher than that of Case 1.

For improving interoperability of medical information, health level 7 has initiated the development of a next-generation framework for the exchange of medical information called the Fast health interoperability resources (FHIR). However, there was no attempt to exchange the medical three-dimensional (3D) image with clinical data via FHIR. Thus, we designed a new method. The 3D image to be made from computed tomography was converted to the javascript object notation (JSON) file format, and clinical data was added. We made a test FHIR server, and the client used the postman. The JSON file was attached to the body, and was then transmitted. The transmitted 3D image could be seen through a web browser, and attached clinical data was identified in the source code. This is the first attempt to exchange the medical 3D image. Additional researches will be needed to develop applications or FHIR resources that apply this method.

The SHE(Selected Harmonic Elimination) PWM scheme which eliminates specific lower order harmonics can generate h high quality output waveforms in 3-level PWM inverters. However. its application has limited since SHE switching a angles cannot be calculated on-line by a microprocessor-implemented control system. Based on off-line optimization. in which multiple SHE solutions were found and analysed for 2 to 5 switching angles per quarter in the 3-level SHE PWM pattern. this paper presents an algebraic algorithm for an ordinary microprocessor to calculate approximate SHE S switching angles on-line with such high resolution that it makes no practical difference between the accurate and the a approximate SHE switching angles. By employing the variable of the dc-link voltage Vdc' the proposed SHE PWM p pattern can ideally compensate the dc input fluctuation together with selected harmonics eliminated.

The effects of the thyroid hormone ($T_3$) on 3-hydroxy-3-methylglutaryl coenzyme A (HMG-CoA) reductase activity were evaluated in a baby hamster kidney cell line, C100. The cells cultured in MEM were supplemented with 10% thyroid hormone-depleted fetal bovine serum (THDS-MEM) and had a 82.5% lower level of HMG-CoA reductase activity than the cells grown in a medium supplemented with fetal bovine serum (FBS-MEM). When $T_3$ was supplemented to THDS-MEM, the reduction of the reductase activity was blocked in a dose-dependent manner. In the cells grown in THDS-MEM containing $T_3$ at a concentration of $10^{-6}$ M, the level of HMG-CoA reductase activity was 91.8% relative to the cells grown in FBS-MEM. These changes in HMG-CoA reductase activity seemed to be at least partly due to the changes of HMG-CoA reductase mRNA levels. The level of HMG-CoA reductase mRNA in cells incubated in THDS-MEM decreased to 76.2% relative to the cells grown in FBS-MEM, while the level of reductase mRNA in cells incubated in THDS-MEM containing $T_3$ at a concentration of $10^{-6}$ M increased to 243.4% relative to the cells grown in FBS-MEM. The increase of HMG-CoA reductase mRNA level after $T_3$ treatment may have been due to the increased stability of reductase mRNA, because the transcriptional rate of the reductase gene did not change significantly in the presence or absence of $T_3$. These results indicate that $T_3$ stabilizes HMG-CoA reductase mRNA at the posttranscriptional level and regulates HMG-CoA reductase activity in a dose-dependent manner.

The objective of this study is securement of upland irrigation water using storage level management of small dams. However, it is not new development of water resources but securement of water using storage level management of existing dam. This study has enhanced the water utilization coefficient of dam, after extra available water had been calculated by application of periodical management storage level and this water is used to other water like the upland irrigation water demand. As the result of application, it can secure extra available water except the water requirement. Minimum extra available water except flood is about $20,000,000\;m^3$ and crop irrigation water demand of 10yr frequency is about $2,033,000\;m^3$ in Seongju. The utilization of crop irrigation water can be possible. And extra available water is about $3,102,000\;m^3$ in 2000, $1,959,000\;m^3$ in 2001 except flood period and crop irrigation water demand of 10yr frequency is about $2,272,000\;m^3$ in Donghwa. It is judged that extra available water cannot be used to crop irrigation water during the dry season in Dongwha. Consequently, when management storage level is determined and more efficient use of water is gotten like this study, water utilization coefficient will be enhanced.

Vertical interconnect technology called 3D stacking has been a major focus of the next generation of IC industries. 3D stacked devices in the vertical dimension give several important advantages over conventional two-dimensional scaling. The most eminent advantage is its performance improvement. Vertical device stacking enhances a performance such as inter-die bandwidth improvements, RC delay mitigation and geometrical routing and placement advantages. At present memory stacking options are of great interest to many industries and research institutes. However, these options are more focused on a form factor reduction rather than the high performance improvements. In order to improve a stacked device performance significantly vertical interconnect technology with wafer level stacking needs to be much more progressed with reduction in inter-wafer pitch and increases in the number of stacked layers. Even though 3D wafer level stacking technology offers many opportunities both in the short term and long term, the full performance benefits of 3D wafer level stacking require technological developments beyond simply the wafer stacking technology itself.

This paper describes dynamic performance analysis of a STATCOM based on 3-level inverter. Major attention is focused on the controller design for 3-level inverter, including regulator design for voltage sharing across the dc link capacitors. A detailed simulation model was developed with Matlab and a scaled hardware model was built and tested to verify the proposed approach. Both simulation and experimental results confirm that the developed controller can regulate the reactive power. The developed controller could be effectively applied to the actual hardware system for STATCOM.

Ab initio calculations were carried out on the gas phase acid-catalyzed hydrolysis reactions of sulfinamide using the 3-21G* basis sets. Single point calculations were also performed at the MP2/6-31G* level. The first step in the acid-catalyzed hydrolysis of N-methylmethanesulfinamide, Ⅰ, involves protonation. The most favorable form is the O-protonated one, Ⅱ, which is then transformed into a sulfurane intermediate, Ⅲ, by addition of a water molecule. The reaction proceeds further by an intramolecular proton transfer from O to N (TS2), which is followed by N-S bond cleavage (TS3) leading to the final products. The rate determining step is the N-S bond cleavage (TS3) at the RHF/3-21G* level, whereas it becomes indeterminable at the MP2/6-31G*//3-21G* level of theory. However, the substituent effect studies with N-protonated N-arylmethanesulfinamide, ⅩⅢ, at the MP2/6-31G*//3-21G* level support the N-S bond breaking step as rate limiting.

The purpose of this study was to explore the degree of stress in caregivers caring for patients who had had a cerebro vascular accident as the stress is related to the self- care ability of the patient. The subjects for the study were caregivers of 111 CVA patients, hospitalized at two University affiliated hospitals and two general hospitals in Daejon. The survey instruments used in the study were Kang’s ADL Check List and a modified form of Lee’s Stress Inventory. The survey was conducted from July 16th to August 30th, 1992. The survey results were analyzed using the Statisitical Package for Social Sciences (SPSS) and can be sumerized as follows: 1. The level of self- care for the CVA patients was : 1) complete dependence (M=34.7, 31.2%), 2) complete independence (M=14.8. 13.3%), 3) in-complete independence ( M=17.5, 15.8% ), 4) in-complete dependence (M=14.8, 13.3%) and 5) dependence and independence (M=14.1, 12.7%). The items for which there was a high level of self-care were 1) drinking (M=3.640), 2) returning (M=2.351) and 3) eating (M=2.351) : and the items for which there was a low level of self -care were : 1) ascending and descending stairs (M=2.351), 2) dressing and undressing trousers (M=2.514) and 3) dressing and undressing jacket (M :2.532). 2. There was a statistically difference between the paralytic status and the level of self- care accord-ing to their demographic characteristics ( F=24. 7056, p(.001). 3. There was no significant difference in the degree of caregiver stress according to patient's demo-graphic characteristics. 4. There was a statistically significant difference in the degree of caregiver stress according to the following demographic characteristics : age (F=7.4189, p(.001), education level (F=5.8336, P(.01), family structure (t=2.10, p(.05) and their relationship with the patient (F=6.5099, P〈.01). 5. There was no significant difference in the degree of caregiver stress according to the level of patient self - care.
