The present study proposes a method for modeling a SONAR transducer with dual resonance. The Butterworth van-Dyke (BVD) model, a conventional SONAR transducer modeling method, can model only one resonance point. Hence, to address its disadvantage and to model the dual resonance, a dual resonance BVD model consisting of two serial BVD models is proposed. The two BVD models are connected in a series, and each simulate resonance at low frequency and high frequency, which allows the modeling of two resonance points. Eight elements compose the equivalent circuit by connecting the BVD models in a series, which is twice as great as that of the existing BVD model. The element value of the dual resonance BVD model is extracted by using the particle swarm optimization method. Analysis was also performed to identify the effects of changes in the value of elements that compose the equivalent circuit on the impedance characteristics of the equivalent circuit through simulation in which element values varied.

본 논문에서는 유전자 알고리즘을 이용한 박막 체적 공진기 대역통과 여파기 설계기법을 제안하였다. 기존의 BVD등가모델을 이용한 여파기 설계기법은 공진 모드에서의 공진기의 임피던스 특성을 몇 개의 집중 소자로 근사함으로써 생기는 오차를 포함하고 있다. 본 논문에서는 공진기의 전기적 임피던스 특성식 자체를 이용한 최적화 FBAR여파기 설계기법을 제안하였다. 유전자 알고리즘을 적용하여 설계기준을 만족하도록 공진기의 두께 및 면적을 최적화하였다. 첫 번째 유전자 알고리즘은 사다리형 여파기의 직렬/병렬 공진기의 직렬/병렬 공진 주파수가 통과대역의 중심주파수와 일치하도록 각 공진기의 압전 물질 두께를 최적화하였다. 두 번째 유전자 알고리즘은 설계하고자하는 대역통과 여파기 특성을 만족시키기 위한 각 공진기의 면적을 최적화하였다. 제안된 방법을 이용하여 설계된 US-PCS 수신 대역통과 여파기는 기존의 방법 및 BVD모델을 이용한 설계결과와 비교하여 우수한 응답특성을 나타내었다.

This paper presents an approach to evaluate the appropriate parameters for Piezoelectric ceramic utilization by adopting Impedance Method. Butterworth Van Dyke model (BVD) is considered to use as an equivalent circuit of Piezoelectric ceramic in case of no load. The experimental results from this model will be compared with the results from a circular Piezoelectric ceramic with 4.8 cm. diameter and 3 mm. thickness. The Thickness Mode vibration measured by Impedance Analyzer model 4192A can be analyzed from 1Hz to 13MHz for calculating and analyzing parameters at resonance frequency and anti-resonance frequency. These parameters are evaluated to design the efficient circuit for Piezoelectric ceramic utilization to obtain the optimal efficiency.

PURPOSE. One of the major keys to achieve successful osseointegration of the implant is its surface properties. The aim of this study was to investigate the bone response to dental implants with different surface characteristics using the rabbit tibia model. Tricalcium phosphate (TCP) coated, anodic oxidized and turned (control) surfaces were compared. MATERIALS AND METHODS. Seventy two implants were placed in the tibia of eighteen rabbits. Nine rabbits were sacrificed at 3 weeks of healing and the remaining nine were sacrificed at 6 weeks of healing. The bone-to-implant contact (BIC) and the bone volume density (BVD) were assessed by light microscope after 3 and 6 weeks of healing. RESULTS. Statistical analysis showed that no significant differences in the BIC and BVD were observed between the different implant surfaces and the control group at 3 weeks and 6 weeks of healing. Data also suggested that the BVD of all the surfaces showed significant difference at 3 and 6 weeks. CONCLUSION. The present study has showed that osseointegration occurred in all investigated types of surface-treated implants. In the current study all of the threads of the implants were observed to calculate BIC and BVD values (instead of choosing some of the threads from the bone cortex for example), which didn't make BIC or BVD percentage values better than in the control group, therefore the clinical relevance of these results remains to be shown.

The aim of this study was to measure whole blood viscosity (WBV) and then to establish its reference values and identify correlation between WBV and hematology or serum chemistry in beagle. The experiment was made up of 82 healthy beagle dogs. Jugular vein blood samples (10 ml) were collected. WBV (cP) measured within 4 hours after collection by U-shaped scanning capillary-tube viscometer ($BVD-PRO1^{(R)}$) which is capable of measuring yield stress and viscosity of whole blood continuously over a wide range of shear rates from $1s^{-1}$ to $1000s^{-1}$ is new type of capillary tube viscometer and calculates viscosity using Casson fluid model. Measured values of WBV, Complete blood cell count, serum chemistry were analyzed by RM-ANOVA test. Mean diastolic and systolic WBV (cP) were $29.032{\pm}6.137$ and $4.528{\pm}0.865$. Bodyweight (BW), Red blood cell count (RBC), Hemoglobin (HGB), Hematocrit (HCT), Alkaline phosphatase (ALP), Cholestetol (CHOL), Total protein (TP), Globulin, Chloride (Cl), Fibrinogen, were statistically correlated with WBV over whole range of shear rates (p < 0.05). This study newly evaluated reference values of WBV by U-shaped viscometer in beagle. Correlation between WBV and BW, RBC, HGB, HCT, ALP, CHOL, TP, Globulin, Cl, Fibrinogen was presented.
