The root cause of abnormal sound from a heat exchanger of condensate water system in a nuclear power plant is investigated by using the impact signal-processing methodology based on the Hertz theory. The predicted results for the location of impact force and the loose part size meet good agreement with the identified materials during the overhaul period in the plant. Nuclear power plants have experienced several loose parts and the frequency of the loose part will be increased along the aging of the plants. So, this analysis methodology for the impact signal will be widely utilized for the primary and secondary side of the nuclear power plant.

부정맥 심전도 신호에는 전도장애 및 발생부위에 따라 다양한 비정상 모양을 띄는 특이심박들이 포함되어 있고, 이들 특이심박은 부정맥 등의 심장질환을 진단하는데 있어 매우 중요하다. 본 논문에서는 심실질환에 관련한 PVC 특이심박 검출 알고리즘을 제안한다. PVC 특이심박에서는 심전도 신호의 구성요소 가운데 QRS 군의 왜곡이 발생하는 특징이 있다. 따라서 QRS 군의 왜곡 정도에 따라 PVC 특이심박을 검출할 수 있다. 먼저 R-peak의 전위, 첨도, 주기를 사용하여 QRS 군의 왜곡을 정량화하고, 이들 값들의 평균과 표준편차를 이용하여 정상 심박과의 왜곡의 정도에 따라 PVC 특이심박을 검출한다. 제안한 알고리즘은 MIT-BIH 부정맥 데이터베이스 중 심실질환과 관계되는 AAMI-V class 타입의 특이심박을 평균 98% 이상을 검출할 수 있었다.

The study was performed to investigate the comparison of relative signal intensity of normal- and abnormal-side retrodiscal tissue, and relationship between clinical examination, joint effusion and relative signal intensity of retrodiscal tissue in patients with unilateral TMJ internal derangement. The study group comprised 19 females and 9 males, with a mean age of 29 years. After measurements of the signal intensity were made on the MR imager for the T2 weighted images on retrodiscal tissue and brain gray matter, we calculated relative value and tried to find relationship between clinical examination, joint effusion and relative signal intensity on normal- and abnormal-side. The results are as follows. 1. The gray matter is an appropriate reference point. 2. The relative signal intensity is high significantly in abnormal-side retrodiscal tissue compared with normal-side retrodiscal tissue. 3. The relative signal intensity is high significantly in painful joints compared with nonpainful joints and in joints with joint effusion compared with joints without joint effusion. 4. The relative signal intensity in normal joints, joints with reduction and joints without reduction is increased in order significantly.

As a method to improve the equipment reliability, early warning researches that can be detected fault symptom of an equipment at an early stage are being performed out among developed countries. In this paper, when abnormal signal is input to actual normal signal of a pump, early detection studies on pump's fault symptom were carried out with auto-associative kernel regression as an advanced pattern recognition algorithm. From analysis, correlations among power of motor driving pump, discharge flow of pump, power output of pump, and discharge pressure of pump are exited. When the abnormal signal is input to one of those normal signals, the other expected values are changed due to the influence of the abnormal signal. Therefore, the fault symptom of pump through the early-warning index is able to detect at an early stage.

It is difficult to control children who exhibit negative behavior in dental clinics. Various methods are used for preventing pediatric dental patients from being afraid and for eliminating the factors that cause psychological anxiety. However, when it is difficult to apply this routine behavioral control technique, sedation therapy is used to provide quality treatment. When the sleep anesthesia treatment is performed at the dentist's clinic, it is challenging to identify emergencies using the current breath detection method. When a dentist treats a patient that is under the influence of an anesthetic, the patient is unconscious and cannot immediately respond, even if the airway is blocked, which can cause unstable breathing or even death in severe cases. During emergencies, respiratory instability is not easily detected with first aid using conventional methods owing to time lag or noise from medical devices. Therefore, abnormal breathing needs to be evaluated in real-time using an intuitive method. In this paper, we propose a method for identifying abnormal breathing in real-time using an intuitive method. Respiration signals were measured using a 3M Littman electronic stethoscope when the patient's posture was supine. The characteristics of the signals were analyzed by applying the signal processing theory to distinguish abnormal breathing from normal breathing. By applying a short-time Fourier transform to the respiratory signals, the frequency range for each patient was found to be different, and the frequency of abnormal breathing was distributed across a broader range than that of normal breathing. From the wavelet transform, time-frequency information could be identified simultaneously, and the change in the amplitude with the time could also be determined. When the difference between the amplitude of normal breathing and abnormal breathing in the time domain was very large, abnormal breathing could be identified.

The two major problems related to the blood flow in replaced prosthetic heart valve are thrombus formation and hemolysis. Reliability of prosthetic valve is very important because its failure means the death of patient. There are many factors affecting the valvular failures and their representatives are mechanical failure and thrombosis, so early noninvasive detection is essentially required. The purpose of this study is to detect the various thromboses formation by using acoustic signal acquisition and its spectral analysis on the frequency domain. We made the thrombosis models using Polydimethylsiloxane (PDMS) and they are thrombosis model on the disc, around the sewing ring and fibrous tissue growth across the orifice of valve. Using microphone and amplifier, we measured the acoustic signal from the prosthetic valve, which is attached to the pulsatile mock circulation system. A/D converter sampled the acoustic signal and the spectral analysis is the main algorithm for obtaining spectrum. Then the spectrum of normal and 5 different kinds of abnormal valve were obtained. Each spectrum waveform shows a primary and secondary peak. The secondary peak changes according to the thrombus model. To quantitatively distinguish the frequency peak of the normal valve from that of the thrombosed valves, analysis using a neural network was employed. Acoustic measurement has been used as a noninvasive diagnostic tool and is thought to be a good method for detecting possible mechanical failure or thrombus.
