CFAR(Constant False Alarm Rate)는 레이다 시스템에서 표적 탐지에 주요 사용된다. 그 중에서 OS(Ordered Statistic) CFAR는 비균일 잡음환경에서 사용된다. 그러나 OS CFAR는 참조 셀을 오름차순으로 정렬하여 임계값을 계산하므로 많은 연산량이 필요하다. 이로 인하여 실시간 적용에 어려움이 있다. 본 논문에서는 OS CFAR의 연산량을 줄이는 방안을 서술한다. 단순 표적 유무만 판단하기 위하여 참조 셀들을 오름차순 정렬하는 대신 참조 셀과 크기 비교하는 방식으로 수행하였다. 그리고 3개의 테스트 셀을 묶어 구역을 나누고, 구역 내에서 공통 참조 셀을 구하였다. 공통 참조 셀과 테스트 셀과의 크기 비교를 우선 수행함으로써 연산시간을 단축한다.

This study was conducted to evaluate whether the fatigue toughness of visible light cured composite resins could be improved and how much percentage of polymerzation shrinkage could be affected by additional heat treatment. 7 materials were investigated for this study: P-50, Lite-fil CR inlay, Pekafil, Clearfil CR inlay, Clearfil photo posterior, Z -100 and Progress. Diametral tensile strengths and linear shrinkages of composite resins were taken under visible light cured and additional post-cure heated condition and compared each other. A fatigue toughness of above materials was evaluated by measuring diametral tensile strength after they were repeatedly loaded with 120kgf/$cm^2$ up to 3000 cycles. The results obtained were as follows : 1. When composite resins were cured just by visible light, Lite fil CR inlay, Z -100 and Progress showed respectively higher diametral tensile strength than the other materials. Clearfil CR inlay, Clearfil photo posterior and Progress exhibited strong fatigue toughness compared to P-50 and Pekafil. 2. Post-cure heat treated composite resins had higher diametral tensile strengths than visible light cured composite resins at fatigue toughness test as well as no fatigue toughness test. 3. When Composite resins were additionally polymerized by post-cure heat treatment, P-50 showed weak fatigue toughness, on the contrary, Clearfil CR inlay, Z-100, Progress showed strong one. 4. When composite resins were cured just by visible light, percentage of polymerization linear shrinkage was the lowerest in Clearfil CR inlay, followed by, in ascending order, Clearfil photo posterior, Lite-fil CR inlay, Progress, Pekafil, P-50, and Z-100. In the case of post- cure heat treated composite resins, percentage of linear shrinkage was the lowest in Clearfil photo posterior, followed by, in ascending order, Lite-til CR inlay, Clearfil CR inlay, Progress, P-50, Pekafil and Z-100. 5. Percentage of polymerization linear shrinkage was greater in the post-cure heat treated composite resins than in the visible light cured composite resins and linear shrinkage increased significantly in Pekafil, Clearfil CR inlay, and Clearfil photo posterior between at the visible light cured and at the post-cure heat treated condition. The above results is saying that additional post-cure heat treatment on the composite resins for posterior restoration is able to affect on improvement of strength and fatigue toughness and lead to increase polymerization of composite resins.

본 연구는 심전도 게이팅을 한 방법과 심전도 게이팅 없이 검사하는 방법으로 검사하여 대동맥 뿌리 영상을 비교하는 것이며 high pitch(flash) chest pain protocol 방법으로 검사한 영상들과 기존의 방식으로 심전도 게이팅 없이 검사한 환자의 대동맥 뿌리 영상의 질환 유무를 관찰하였다. High pitch(flash) chest pain protocol과 일반적인 chest pain protocol로 AAPM 팬텀을 스캔하였으며 이렇게 획득된 팬텀 영상을 가지고 동일한 영상 품질을 가지는 파라메타 값을 조절하고 방사선량, 즉 CTDI 값을 비교해 보았다. 심전도 게이팅을 함으로 해서 상행대동맥의 이미지 왜곡은 기존의 심전도 게이팅을 하지 않은 검사방법보다 월등하게 감소시킬 수 있었고 대동맥 뿌리의 영상 품질은 향상되었다. 영상 이미지 품질의 차이를 보이지 않는 파라메타 범위 내에서, high-pitch chest pain protocol로 검사하였을 때 CTDI 값이 더 낮게 나왔으므로 방사선량 감소에도 이점이 있음을 알 수 있었다. 심장과 관련된 분야에서 선량 감소 모드를 이용하여 대동맥 박리와 같은 진단 분야에 응용하여 적용한다면 획기적인 피폭선량 감소 효과뿐만 아니라 빠른 진단과 함께 신속한 치료가 필요한 환자들에게 매우 중요한 검사방법이 될 것으로 사료된다.

Objective: Patellofemoral pain syndrome (PFPS) is a condition that is characterized by patellar discomfort or pain that is aggravated during certain activities such as ascending/descending stairs. The Patellofemoral Disability Index (PDI) was developed to assess the effect of pain on functional activities in individuals with PFPS. The objectives of the current study were to determine the internal consistency, test-retest reliability, and validity of this index. Design: Cross-sectional study. Methods: Forty-one subjects who had PFPS with a mean age of $28.8{\pm}5.0years$ and a mean body mass index of $25.6{\pm}4.7kg/m^2$ participated in the study. All subjects were concurrently enrolled in a clinical trial for which they were instructed to complete hamstring-resistance exercises for 4 weeks. Over the course of the intervention, they completed both the PDI and the Oswestry Disability Index (ODI) at baseline after two weeks, and after four weeks. Pearson correlation coefficient was used to assess the criterion validity. Cronbach's ${\alpha}$ was used to examine the internal consistency. Intraclass correlation coefficients with 95% confidence interval were computed to examine test-retest reliability. Results: Subjects' responses within both the PDI and the ODI yielded Pearson correlation coefficient values that were positive and highly significant (range, 0.73-0.97; p<0.001). There was a high level of internal consistency (Cronbach's ${\alpha}{\geq}0.8$), with the exception of stair climbing (Cronbach's ${\alpha}=0.65$). Intraclass correlation ranged from 0.87 to 0.92, indicating high levels of test-retest reliability. Conclusions: The PDI is a valid, reliable, and feasible method of assessing pain and functional ability in patients with PFPS.

In this study Muffins adding each 0, 1, 3, 5 7% of Acai Berry powder, which has very high anti-oxidant constituent, have been made, and its quality characteristics have been surveyed. From the volume and specific volume measurement, it has been decreased for MA1, 1% of Acai Berry powder added muffin, but the tendency thereafter has shown increasing (p<0.001). From texture characteristics gumminess and chewiness of MA0, reference group, was the highest by 885.86 g/ cm and 6645.71 g, and has shown decreasing tendency as per the adding rate of Acai Berry powder increased (0.001). The electronics scavenging activity of MA7, 7% added muffin, was the highest by 68.91%, and the ascending order was MA1 < Reference Group < MA3 < MA5 < MA7. From the preference test of Acai Berry powder added muffin, MA3, 3% added muffin, was the most preferable one from color, taste as well as total preference. As the added volume of Acai Berry powder is 5% or more, the typical taste and flavor of Acai Berry gives influence to the taste and flavor of muffin, so the preference level has been decreased. Thus the added volume of Acai Berry powder 5% or more is not recommendable.

The effects of the amount of red pepper intake per a day on the capsaicin threshold, nutrient intake, and anthropo-metric measurements were investigated in 100 female students of university. Three 24-hour recalls were performed to estimate usual nutrient and red pepper intake of free-living participants. The solutions containing capsaicin at concentration of 0.05, 0.1, 0.2, 0.3, 0.4, 0.5ppm used for the evaluation of hot-taste detection threshold. Subjects were asked to recognize the burning sensation after tasting l0ml of each test solution in ascending order of capsaicin concentrations. Mean intake of red pepper was 4.6 g/d and the capsaicin threshold was 0.27 ppm. The detection threshold for capsaicin was correlated with the amount of pepper intake per a day. Red pepper intake was correlated with energy, protein, lipid, carbohydrate, Iron, vitamin A, vitamin B$_2$ niacin, and vitamin E intakes. However, it was not correlated with intake of calcium, vitamin B$_1$ or vitamin C. The red pepper intake was negatively correlated with fat mass and waist girth and the capsaicin threshold was also negatively correlated with pulse. In conclusion, red pepper intake was associated with nutrient intake and capsaicin threshold whereas it was negatively correlated with fat mass and waist girth.

Objective: The purpose of this study is to compare the EMG activities of the trunk muscles when carrying a backpack with belts and without belts. Background: This research aimed to explore the influence of carrying a backpack with belts on the trunk muscles activity and to suggest a desirable method of wearing backpacks. Method: Seventy five adolescents participated in this study. The EMG activities of upper trapezious, cervical erector spinae and rectus abdominis were collected. One way ANOVA was used to analyze the collected data. LSD was used for post-hoc test. Results: The EMG data from treadmill walking showed significant differences between carrying a backpack with belts and without belts for the cervical erector spinae and upper trapezious(p<.05) in all group(A Group: no belt, B Group: lumbar belt, C Group: lumbar-chest belt). In descending walking, significant difference were found for the cervical erector spinae and rectus abdominis in all group. In ascending walking, there were no significant differences in all group. LSD showed that the muscle activity of the trunk muscles decreased significantly when the lumbar belt and lumbar-chest belt were worn. Conclusion: The trunk muscles activities were decreased when the subjects were wearing a backpack with belts, comparing with wearing a backpack without belts. Application: These results can be used to provide useful information on how wearing a backpack in adolescent.

In this study, we identify 307 the geosynchronous magnetopause crossing (GMC) using geosynchronous satellite observation data from 1996 to 2010 as well as make an observational test of magnetopause location models using the identified events. For this, we consider three models: Petrinec and Russell (1996), Shue et al. (1998), and Lin et al. (2010). To evaluate the models, we estimate a Probability of Detection (PoD) and a Critical Success Index (CSI) as a function of year. To examine the effect of solar cycle phase, we consider three different time periods: (1) ascending phase (1996-1999), (2) maximum phase (2000-2002), and (3) descending phase (2003-2008). Major results from this study are as follows. First, the PoD values of all models range from 0.6 to 1.0 for the most of years. Second, the PoD values of Lin et al. (2010) are noticeably higher than those of the other models. Third, the CSI values of all models range from 0.3 to 0.6 and those of Shue et al. (1998) are slightly higher than those of the other models. Fourth, the predicted magnetopause radius based on Lin et al.(2010) well match the observed one within one earth radius, while that on Shue et al. (1998) overestimate the observed one by about 2 earth radii. Fifth, the PoD and CSI values of all the models are better for the solar maximum phase than those for the other phases, implying that the models are more optimized for the phase.

동일한 인장철근배근상태($\rho$/$\rho_b$=constant)에서 휨을 받는 고강도 철근 콘크리트 보는 보통강도의 철근 콘크리트보에 비해 더욱 취성적인 거동을 하게 된다. 본 실험결과 연성적인 파괴를 유도하기 위하여 콘크리트의 강도가 830kg/$cm^2$이상일 경우 철근비를 $0.6\rho_b$이하로 배근하여야 할 것으로 나타났다. 또한 콘크리트 강도가 830kg/$cm^2$ 이상일 경우 사각형응력 블록을 사용한 ACI 휨강도식의 안전율이 감소하였으며, 삼각형에 가까운 압축응력 분포를 나타내었다. 이는 콘크리트 강도가 증가할수록 응력-변형률 곡선이 거의 선형적으로 증가하는 재료적 성질에 기인하는 것으로 사료된다.

The present study was performed to compare effects of demineralized freeze-dried bone allograft(DFDBA) with deproteinized bovine bone mineral(DBBM) on periodontal fenestration defect in rats. Twelve adult male rats weighing 500 to 540 grams were used in this study. Periodontal fenestration defects were surgically created with tapered fissure bur(${\Phi}1mm$) at the left side of buccal surface of the mandible. The defect size was from anterior border of the first molar to anterior of the ascending ramus mesiodistally and from just below the alveolar crest to apically 1.5-2mm area apicocoronally with 2mm in depth. Rats were divided into control group, test group I and II. Four defects were assigned to the test group I grafted with DBBM and other 4 defects were assigned to the test group II grafted with DFDBA. The rest of defects were the negative control group. At 10 days and 35 days after surgery, 12 rats were sacrificed through intracardiac perfusion and specimens were obtained prepared with Hematoxylin-Eosin stain for light microscopic evaluation. The results of this study were as follows : 1. In the control group, new bone, osteoid, dense connective tissue were observed in the defects at 10 days. new bone formation was not found but loose connective tissue was formed in the defect and fibrous encapsulation of graft materials was shown in two test groups at 10 days. 2. In all groups, new bone formation was shown in the defect at 35 days. And in the control group, bone formation increased at 35 days than at 10 days. 3. In the test group I and II at 35 days, graft materials were combined with new bone and joined host bone. There was very close contact between new bone, graft materials, and host bone with no gaps. 4. In the test group I and II, new bone formation was similar to that in the control group but not exeeded. In conclusion, in the test group I new bone formation was similar to that in the test group II at 35 days, but there was infiltration of inflammatory cells at 10 days. DFDBA and DBBM were considered as the biocompatible graft materials and effective in the regeneration of new bone.
