  • 최근 HMD와 혼합현실에 기반한 비행 시뮬레이터에 많은 관심이 증가하고 있다. 그러나 기존 혼합현실 기반 비행 시뮬레이터는 HMD를 착용한 조종사에게 다양한 상호작용과 실재감을 제공하는 데 한계가 있다. 이를 해결하기 위해서는 실제 조종석 환경하에서 상호작용에 대응하는 혼합현실 영상이 실시간으로 생성되어 조종사에게 제공되어야 한다. 본 논문에서는 HMD에 부착된 카메라에서 얻어지는 현실 영상에서 조종사의 신체를 포함한 조종석 영역을 검출하고, 이를 가상영상과 합성하여 고해상도의 혼합현실 영상을 실시간으로 생성하는 혼합현실 영상 생성기법을 제안하였다. 모의실험 결과는 99%의 영상합성 정확도를 지니고 30Hz 프레임율로 HMD에 혼합현실 영상을 제공할 수 있음을 보여준다.

  • An enormous body of research is focused on finding ways to commercialize carotenoids produced by the unicellular green alga, Haematococcus, often without the benefit of a sound phylogenetic assessment. Evidence of cryptic diversity in the genus means that comparing results of pigment studies may be confounded by the absence of a phylogenetic framework. Moreover, previous work has identified unnamed strains that are likely candidates for species status. We reconstructed the phylogeny of an expanded sampling of Haematococcus isolates utilizing data from nuclear ribosomal markers (18S rRNA gene, 26S rRNA gene, internal transcribed spacer [ITS]-1, 5.8S rRNA gene, and ITS-2) and the rbcL gene. In addition, we gathered morphological, ultrastructural and pigment data from key isolates of Haematococcus. Our expanded data and taxon sampling support the concept of a new species, H. privus, found exclusively in North America. Despite overlap in numerous morphological traits, results indicate that ratios of protoplast length to width and akinete diameter may be useful for discriminating Haematococcus lineages. High growth rate and robust astaxanthin yield indicate that H. rubicundus (SAG 34-1c) is worthy of additional scrutiny as a pigment source. With the description of H. privus, the evidence supports the existence of at least five, species-level lineages in the genus. Our phylogenetic assessment provides the tools to frame future pigment investigations of Haematococcus in an updated evolutionary context. In addition, our investigation highlighted open questions regarding polyploidy and sexuality in Haematococcus which demonstrate that much remains to be discovered about this green flagellate.

  • 목적 : 전신 정위적 방사선 수술환자 치료 시 환자의 set up을 정확히 확인하고 평가하는 것은 치료 성적을 좌우 하는데 중요한 요소이다. 특히 폐암 환자의 경우 호흡 등에 의한 종양의 움직임으로 인해서 L-gram이나 EPID를 이용하여 정확한 위치를 확인하는데는 여러 가지 어려움이 있다. 이러한 문제점들에 대하여 verification system(exactrac)을 이용하여 set up의 정확성을 확인해 보고자 한다. 대상 및 방법 : Body frame(elekta, sweden)을 이용하여 전신 정위적 방사선 수술을 받는 폐암 환자 6명을 대상으로 (ABC tool을 사용한 환자 5명과 사용 안한 환자1명) 기존의 L-gram과 EPIDs로 image를 획득하여 Ant, Lat image를 비교하여 환자의 set-up을 확인하고 CT에서 얻은 DRR image와 Verification system(exactrac)의 X-ray image를 얻어서 두image를 3차원적으로 fusion하여 그 좌표 값(vertical, longitudinal, lateral)을 분석하고 기존의 방법과의 차이를 확인하였다. 결과 : L-gram과 EPIDs로는 정확한 좌표 값보다는 주관적으로 Set up의 정확성 여부를 판단하여 치료할 수 있었지만 Verification system(exactrac)을 이용하여 확인한 결과 치료환자의 Set up 전, 후의 좌표 값(vertical, longitudinal, lateral)이 0.5cm이내에 포함되는 것을 볼 수 있었고 좌표 값의 차이를 시각적이고 객관적으로 평가할 수 있어서 Set up의 정확성을 판단하는 데 유용했다. 결론 : Verification system(exactrac)을 사용하면 환자의 Set up이 정확한 지 치료 전 또는 중간에도 시각적인 확인이 가능한 장점이 있지만 기존의 방법보단 확인과정이 조금 복잡하고 CT scan 시 3mm 이내로 해야 하며 X-ray image가 선명하게 나타나야 된다는 단점이 있다. 이러한 문제점만 해결된다면 Set up의 정확성을 쉽게 확인할 수 있어서 치료 시 많은 도움이 되리라고 생각된다.

  • 농용 트랙터는 일반적인 도로 주행이 아닌 논 또는 밭과 같은 험지에서 작업용으로 사용한다. 때문에 정적 하중 뿐만 아니라 동적 하중이 고려된 구조 해석이 진행되어야 한다. 하지만 동적 입력 하중을 계산하기 위해서는 다양한 작업기와 하중조건을 모사해야 하기에 실제 측정에 많은 시간과 노력이 소요된다. 이러한 노력들을 줄이기 위해서 본 연구에서는 상용 자동차와 동일하게 농용 트랙터를 위한 4 축 도로하중 시뮬레이터(4-Post Road Simulator) 모델을 개발하였다. 입력하중을 검증하기 위해 사내 험로 시험장에서 차축의 가속도 값과 바디프레임의 변형률(strain)을 측정하였다. 가속도 값은 동역학 모델의 입력 하중으로 사용하고 모드 중첩 법을 포함한 동역학 해석을 수행하여 변형률을 검증하였다. 이를 통해 험로 프로파일과 유사한 거동을 나타내는 4 축 도로하중을 구할 수 있었으며 신뢰성을 검증하였다.

  • 광대역 재구성 기법(Wide Beam Reconstruction : WBR)은 잡음을 감소시켜 신호 대 잡음 비를 증가시키고, 또 광속 확산 함수 효과(Beam spread function effect)를 저하시킴으로써 기존의 여과 후 역투영법(Filtered Back Projection : FBP)와 비교하였을 때 영상의 질은 동등하고 영상획득 시간을 줄일 수 있는 장점이 있다고 보고 있다. 본 연구는 UltraSPECT(Haifa,Israel)사 광대역 재구성 기법 인 Xpress3.$cardiac^{TM}$를 이용하여 기존의 FBP기법에 대한 WBR기법의 유용성을 알아보고자 한다. 1. Phantom 실험 : Anthropomorphic torso phantom을 사용하여 심근과 연부조직 그리고 폐 영역에$^{201}Tl$을 각각 74 kBq(2 ${\mu}Ci$)/cc, 11.1 kBq (0.3 ${\mu}Ci$)/cc, 2.59 kBq (0.07 ${\mu}Ci$)/cc의 비율로 투여하여 검사 시 실제 환자의 count와 유사하게 phantom을 제작하였다. 영상획득은 게이트법 적용 없이 Tl-201 심근관류 SPECT를 시행하였다. FBP로 재구성 한 영상은 투사영상 당 50초로 영상을 획득하였고, WBR으로 재구성 한 영상은 시간을 1/4로 단축하여 투사영상 당 13초로 영상을 획득하였다. 두 가지 기법으로 재구성한 영상을 Xeleris ver. 2.0551을 이용하여 반치폭(Full Width at Half Maximum : FWHM)과 평균 영상 대조도를 비교하였다. 2. 환자 정량분석 값 비교 : 2010년 1월 ~ 4월까지 본원에서 Tl-201 심근관류 SPECT 시행한30명의 환자를 대상으로 분석하였다. 먼저 아데노신 부하 후 stress 촬영 시 투사영상당 50초로 약 15분 동안 영상을 획득한 후 곧바로 투사영상당 13초로 약 4분 동안 영상을 다시 획득하였다. 또 rest 촬영시에도 동일하게 획득하였다. 투사영상 당 50초로 획득한 데이터는 FBP기법으로, 투사영상 당 13초로 획득한 데이터는 WBR기법으로 재구성하여 SSS, SDS, SRS, EDV, ESV, EF 값을 산출하여 비교 하였다. Phantom 실험 후 분해능 측정 결과, WBR기법으로 재구성한 경우 FBP기법에 비하여 FWHM은 29.46% 향상되었다(WBR data: 5.47 mm, FBP data: 7.07 mm). 또 평균 영상 대조도 증가하는 것으로 나타났다(WBR data: 0.90, FBP data: 0.56). 반면 환자 데이터를 분석한 결과, SSS, SDS, SRS, EDV, ESV, EF 등 정량분석 값들은 상호간에 유의한 차이를 보였다(p<0.01). 상관계수는 SSS, SDS, SRS에서 각각 0.18, 0.34, 0.08로 통계적으로 유의한 차이를 보였지만 EDV, ESV, EF에서는 각각 0.88, 0.89, 0.71로 좋은 상관관계를 보였다. Phantom 실험 결과 WBR기법은 FBP에 비해 분해능이 향상된 결과를 보였고, 평균 영상 대조도 역시 증가하는 것으로 나타났다. 환자 데이터를 분석하였을 때, WBR기법과 FBP기법 간의 정량분석 값들은 유의한 차이를 보였고, 상관계수 또한 SSS, SRS, SDS에서 유의한 차이가 보였으나, EDV, ESV, EF값에서는 높은 상관관계를 나타났다. 본 연구를 통하여 phantom 실험에서는 영상 획득 시간의 단축 및 영상의 질 향상을 확인할 수 있었다. 단, 환자 데이터에 대한 정량분석에서는 기존의 FBP기법에 비하여 많은 차이가 있어 임상에 적용 시 이에 대한 고려 및 추가적인 연구가 필요할 것이라고 사료된다.

  • This study examined all the research published in Journal of Korean Academy of Nursing (JKAN) for last 30 years, from its beginning year to year 1999, based on an objective frame of evaluation. The purpose of this study is to reflect the trend of nursing research in Korea to date, and to provide an optimal direction for future research. The total number of 959 studies were analyzed with the following results. 1. Since 1990s, the number of non-degree based research has been larger than that of degree-based research compared to 1970s and 1980s. Both collaborative and funded research has been particularly increased in a gradual rate. 2. Research on nurses or nursing students has decreased while research on more diverse populations such as patients, patient families, or community-dwelling healthy clients has increased. 3. While essential nursing concepts such as human, nursing, and health have been consistently dealt as main research topics, research related to the concept of environ- ment has been insufficiently conducted. 4. It was remarkable that the quality of nursing research has been improved due to the acknowledgement of the importance of the empirical research method within the nursing community. 5. Qualitative research has appeared in the journal since the late 1990s, but it is still regarded to be in its novice stage. 6. Although the utilization of research findings for expanding the nursing body of knowledge has been wide in diverse specialties, most studies are limited to focus on concept development or evolution yet. also, in some of these research finding are utilization already considerably as to develop nursing interventions. Based on these findings, conclusions are extended to the following discussions: For the last 30 years, nursing research in Korea has shown an acute methodological development in both quantity and quality. However, there has been a lack of research on theory development although it is one of the ultimate goals in nursing. Further research should be empirical enough to be utilized in an actual nursing care context, and thus to be basis of developing culturally competent nursing theories in Korea.

  • The following conclusions are drawn from a review on the theory of correlation between the jang-bu organs in 'Ojangchunchaklon(五臟穿鑿論)' which is quoted in 'Uihakipmoon(醫學入門)' and 'Donguibogam(東醫寶鑑)'. The three yangs and three yins are trisections each of yang ki and y1n ki. They represent three aspects of change in powers of yin ki and yang ki. The theory of Kaehapchu(開闔樞 the opening, closing and pivot) is thought to be the concept which explains the three states of jang-bu organs and meridians in terms of three yangs and three yins. The three yangs and three yins are assigned to twelve months according to the generation, prosperity and vanishment of the water, the fire, the wood and the metal in the circulation of nature with the lapse of time. Most of all, the change of the water and the fire is the main guide to the assignment. Both the theory of exterior-interior relations in jang-bu organs and meridians and the theory of Kaehapchu are founded on the assignment of three yangs and three yins to twelve months. The correlation between jang-bu organs is based on the monthly assignment of three yangs and three yins described in 'Internal classic(內經)' and the theory of Kaehapchu. In the correlations between jang-bu organs and meridians, the exterior-interior relations are the correspondences of Hand to Hand and Foot to Foot. but the relations of Kaehapchu are those of Hand to Foot and Foot to Hand. Jeesan's diagram of pulse is grounded on the correlations between jang-bu organs. On the left of the diagram, jang organs are arranged in the order of hierarchic positions in body. On the right, bu organs are disposed according to the correlations with the jang organs. Jeesan's diagram includes the principles of triple harmony and diagonal groups in twelve earthly branches(十二支). Jeesan's diagram is the frame through which correlations of jung-ki-shin-hyul, five jang and six bu organs, twelve meridians and six intrinsic factors can be observed at once.

니키 드 생 팔의 트라우마를 통해 살펴본 아상블라주와 사격회화의 양면적 특성 (A Study on the Ambivalent Characteristic Displayed in Niki de Saint Phalle's Assemblages and Shooting Paintings by Looking Into Her Trauma)

  • The purpose of this study is to show that the reason behind the ambivalent characteristic displayed in Niki de Saint Phalle's works is in her trauma and how such characteristic can be extracted from her works. During her creative years, Saint Phalle worked on various materials from different genres such as assemblages, shooting paintings, a series on Bride and Monster, 'Nana', 'Tarot Garden'and public sculptures. One commonality found among her various works is the ambivalent characteristic that contains contrasting elements simultaneously. Saint Phalle suffered a terrible psychological damage inflicted by her parents during her childhood. Specifically, she was sexually assaulted by her father and emotionally neglected by her mother, the trauma that affected her for the rest of her life. As a result, she came to develop extreme love- hate relationships with her parents and this became the main reason for the ambivalent characteristic displayed in her works. The love-hate relationship Saint Phalle developed can be identified through various researches done on the subject of the affect of sexual assault. It is common for incest victims to develop ambivalent feelings towards the perpetrator and Saint Phalle was no exception. Dissociation disorder and a snake well explain the trauma from her father. It is a generally accepted belief in the field of psychology that dissociation disorder commonly occurs to children who experience incest. And dissociation disorder is similar to the characteristic of ambivalence in the sense that a single entity contains more than two contrasting elements at the same time. In addition, the amputated doll objects used in her assemblages coincide with the expression of body detachment of people with dissociation disorder. These facts clearly indicate that the trauma from her father is showing through in her works. A snake is a subject matter that reflects the ambivalent tendency of Saint Phalle that resulted from her trauma. She remembers her father's rape as an image of a snake which is related to a phallic symbol in mythology or art reflecting her trauma. Moreover, she displays a similar pattern of ambivalent emotion like love and hate or fear towards a snake and her father. This is also confirmed by her portrayal of a snake as a monster or reversely as a creature with fundamental vitality in her works. The lack of affection from her mother can be explained by her mother's maternal deprivation. It appears that Saint Phalle's mother possessed all the causes for maternal deprivation such as maternal separation, personality disorder and inappropriate attitude towards child rearing. Especially, a study that shows mother's negative attitude towards child breeding tends to increase dissociation experience of children is another important evidence that supports Saint Phalle's dissociation tendency. These traces of Saint Phalle's trauma are clearly revealed in her assemblages and shooting paintings. The violent objects in her assemblages such as a hammer, razor, nail represent the rage and defensiveness towards her father. The objects such as fragments of broken plates of feminine patterns, pots and mirrors that her mother used symbolize the affection towards her mother. On the other hand, the destructed objects can be interpreted as her hate and resentment towards her mother. Shooting paintings contain her extreme fury and hate. Things such as acts of shooting and the image associated with blood after shooting are blunt expressions of her bursts of emotions. I have tried to define and classify the ambivalent characteristics shown in her assemblages and shooting paintings as hate, rage, violence, calm, love and pleasure according to the frame of Thanatos and Eros. Out of the six, hate, rage, violence and clam are associated with Thanatos while love and pleasure are associated with Eros and they correspondingly form an ambivalent structure. These ambivalent characteristics can be found in her assemblages and shooting paintings. The objects in her assemblages such as a razor, saw, hammer imply hate, rage, violence and the silence felt throughout her works represent calmness. And, as mentioned, the feminine objects can be seen as symbolizing love. In shooting paintings, hate, rage, violence can be found in the use of force and in the traces of watercolor after shooting, and a sense of pleasure in her feelings of catharsis after her shooting. Moreover, a shielded calmness can be found on the plywood all covered with plaster before the shooting. This study looked into the ambivalent characteristic of Saint Phalle's works by examining her trauma to find its correlation, and a meaning of this study can be found from the fact that it refocused the origin of Saint Phalle who is generally known as a feminist artist. Additionally, a meaning of the study can be found also from the fact that it examined the ambivalent characteristics of her works through a frame of Thanatos and Eros.

  • This paper provides a comprehensive overview of the present status of several environmental problems caused by emerging toxic substances such as persistent organic pollutants (POPs), endocrine disrupting chemicals (EDCs), and arsenic in various environmental media in Vietnam. Monitoring data reported during the 1990s demonstrated elevated contamination of DDTs in most of these compartments in Vietnam. Studies in frame of the Asia-Pacific Mussel Watch Program revealed that fish, mussels and resident birds from Vietnam contained higher concentrations of DDTs as compared to other countries in region, suggesting the role of Vietnamese environment as a significant emission source of DDT in the Southeast Asian region. The estimated dietary intakes of PCBs and DDTs for Vietnamese were relatively high among Asian developing countries, suggesting potential risk for humans posed by thesechemicals. Widespread contamination of some endocrine active compounds such as alkylphenols and phthalates was observed at various sites along the coasts of northern and middle Vietnam. The presence of significant source of bisphenol-A along Red River estuary was revealed with the concentrations comparable to those reported for developed nations. A case study on seasonal variation of alkylphenols and phthalates in surface water of river delta and estuary of north and middle Vietnam indicated the differences in distribution of these compounds between dry and rainy seasons. Higher concentrations of alkylphenols and phthalates were found in dry season in estuary; while the contrasting pattern was observed in the river delta, showing elevated residues in rainy season. This result suggests the different behavior of alkylphenols and phthalates in river delta and coastal environment. From ecotoxicological perspectives, concentrations of bis-phenol A and di(2-ethylhexyl)phthalates [DEHP] in surface water from some locations in Vietnam exceeded the guideline values for Ecotoxicological Effects and the Environmental Risk Limit, respectively, suggesting potential for toxic implications on aquatic wildlife. Widespread and elevated arsenic contamination was discovered inour recent surveys in groundwater in a large area of suburban areas of Hanoi city, the capital of Vietnam. The most recent investigation in 4 villages showed about more than 50 % of groundwater samples contained As concentrations exceeding 50 g/L (the WHO and Vietnamese standard). In particular, in Son Dong villages, 58 % of samples analyzed contained As concentrations higher than 200 g/L. Good correlations were found in As concentrations in water and hair and urine of peoples in corresponding families, suggesting the chronic exposure to As by people living in As-contaminated ground water areas. In Son Dong village, As levels in hair (mean: 1.7 mg/kg dry wt) and urine (g/g creatinine) exceeding the reference values recommended by WHO, suggesting potential for human risk posed by long term accumulation of As in human body. Future studies should be focused on the time trends of POPs and EDCs in biota in Vietnam in order to predict future trend of contamination and to reveal new clues for understanding possible toxic impacts on aquatic organisms. The issues of arsenic contamination in groundwater and their chronic toxic implications on human health should be systematically investigated in the future.
