This paper describes a design for a spiral antenna with a conical wall to obtain the high gain. The gain and the axial ratio of the spiral antenna were improved by a new design that included a conical wall and an optimized Archimedean slit on the ground plane in a conventional antenna with a circular cavity wall and a 4.5-turn slit. A gain improvement of 9.5 dBi higher and a good axial ratio of 1.9 dB lower were measured by the added conical wall and the newly designed slit from the current distribution control on the ground plane, respectively. The measured return loss, gain and axial ratio of the proposed antenna showed a good agreement with the simulated results. The proposed antenna will be applied to a non-linear junction detector system.

Desmoid tumor is found most often in the anterior abdominal wall of parous women. Although it may originate in virtually any musculotendinous structure, those of the chest wall are rare. We experienced a case of large dumb bell shaped desmoid tumor originated in intercostal muscle and invaded anterior chest wall, pericardium, pleura and the lung. The patient was healthy in appearance except a painful swelling on the anterior chest wall. Roentgenographic studies demonstrated a huge homogenous mass in the right anterior chest cavity. He was treated with resection of the tumor including .anterior chest wall, a portion of the pericardium, middle lobe, and part of upper & lower lobes of the right lung because of tumor invasion. The tumor composed with two parts, one [$5{\times}4{\times}3$cm in size] is over the rib cage and another [$10{\times}15{\times}10$cm in size] is in the right chest cavity. Postoperative course was uneventful and there was no evidence of recurrence until last visit, 5 months after surgery.

In practice, cavitation phenomena occur in unbounded flows. However, the wall effect is unavoidable during experiments at a closed section such as a cavitation tunnel. Especially, supercavity generated behind a cavitator is relatively large and thick, so that geometric and dynamic characteristics of the cavity are affected by the tunnel wall. In order to apply experimental results into the unbounded flow field, physical correlations are necessary. In this paper, we proposed an image method based on a potential flow to simulate the wall effect. Considering two-dimensional wedge-shaped bodies, configurations and drag characteristics of the cavity were examined according to the distance ratio to the wall surface. The results were compared and verified with existing theoretical and experimental results.

Intraperitoneal administration of radioisotopes is suggested to treat the metastatic ovarian cancer in the peritoneal cavity. Administering beta-emitting radioisotopes into the peritoneal cavity allows the maximum energy delivery to the cancerous cells of the peritoneal wall surface while sparing the normal cells located in deep site of the peritoneal wall. In this study, dose estimates of the peritoneal wall are provided to be used for prescribing the amount of $^{166}Ho$-chitosan complex administered. The $^{166}Ho$-chitosan complex diffused in the peritoneal fluid may attach to the peritoneal wall surface. The attachment fraction of $^{166}Ho$-chitosan complex to the peritoneal wall surface is obtained by simulating the ascites with Fischer rats. Both volume source in the peritoneal fluid and the surface source over the peritoneal wall surface are counted for the contribution to the peritoneal wall dose. The Monte Carlo code EGS4 is used to simulate the energy transfer of the beta particles emitted from $^{166}Ho$. A plane geometrical model of semi-infinite volume describes the peritoneal cavity and the peritoneal wall. A semi-infinite plane of $10{\mu}m$ in thickness at every 1 mm of depth in the peritoneal wall is taken as the target in dose estimation. Greater than 98 percents of attachment fraction has been observed from the experiments with Fischer rats. Given $1.3{\mu}Ci/cm^2$ and $2.4{\mu}Ci/ml$ of uniform activity density, absorbed dose is 123 Gy, 8.59 Gy, 3.00 Gy, 1.03 Gy, and .327 Gy at 0 mm, 1 mm, 2 mm, 3 mm, and 4 mm in depth to the peritoneal wall, respectively.

Primary cardiac tumors are extremely rare and about 20-25% of primary cardiac tumors are malignant. Recently we have experienced a case of primary cardiac rhabdomyosarcoma originated on the right atrial wall. Patient was 41 years-old women and chief complaints were pitting edema and exertional dyspnea. Emergency operation was performed to relieve symptoms by pericardial effusion that hac been seen on the echocardiogram and large soft mass in right atrial cavity on the MRI. About 700ml amounts of bloody pericardial effusion was collected into the pericardial cavity. 4X5X5 cm sized ingrowing soft mass in the right atrial cavity and two small sized outgrowing masses were inspected. A tumor was invaded into the SA node and superior limbic portion of fossa ovalis. And then mass & right atrial free wall was resected but areas of SA node and fossa ovalis were not resected. Defect of right atrial wall was reconstruced with bovine patch. She was discharged after 2 weeks without any problems and she has been treated with chemotherapy.

In case of a high-speed D.I. diesel engine. the injected fuel spray is unavoidable that the impinging on the wall of piston cavity and in this case the geometry of piston cavity has a great influence on the atomization structure and air flow fields. In the field of combustion and in many other spray applications, there are clear evidence of correlation between spray structure and emission of pollutants. Ordinary, the combustion chamber of driving engine have unsteady turbulent flow be attendant on such as the change of temperature, velocity and pressure. So the analysis of spray behavior is difficult. In this study, a single spray was impinged on each cavity wall at indicated angle in a quiescent atmosphere at room temperature and pressure, as being the simplest case, and 3 types of piston cavity such as Dish, Toroidal and Re-entrant type was tested for analyzing the influence of cavity geometry. And hot wire probe was used for analyze non-steady flow characteristics of impinging spray, and to investigate the behavior of spray, the aspects of concentration c(t), standard deviation $\sigma(t)$ and variation factor (v.f.) was measured with the lapse of time.

The purposes of this study were to observe the cavity wall morphology and to evaluate the degree of cavity cleanliness when root-end retrograde cavity preparation was done with ultrasonic diamond instruments. To observe the morphology of retrocavity and to evaluate the degree of cavity cleanliness. root-end resections were done on 20 palatal roots of extracted maxillary first molars after canal filling with gutta-percha. Retrocavities were prepared using either ultrasonic diamond instruments or stainless steel ones of medium power setting of level 6 ($Miniendo^{TM}$, EIE, CA, U.S.A.). Morphology of the cavity. degrees of the remaining canal debris and smear layer were evaluated under the scanning electron microscope. The results were as follows: Cavities prepared with ultrasonic diamond instruments showed scratched appearance of wall, while ultrasonic stainless steel preparation showed hatcheted appearance. Ultrasonic diamond instruments induced more smear layer than stainless steel ones did (p<0.01) in the cavity. However, there was no significant difference in canal debris (p>0.05).

Lipophilic glandular trichomes form secretory vesicles that accumulate in a distended noncellular secretory cavity . Imidazole-buffered osmium tetroxide solution was used to visualize unsaturated lipids in glands of Cannabis sativa. This method of staining revealed two kinds of secretory vesicles in the cavity of glands. Some smaller and rounded vesicles in the secretory cavity and secretory cells were positively stained with the imidazole, and they appeared electron-dense. The other type of vesicles which have bigger sizes more or less were not reacted, however, they appeared transparent. A high contrast of the cuticles which cover the gland was also strongly reacted with that processing. Those result suggest that the dark vesicles in the cavity may contribute to enlarge the subcuticular wall and cuticle when contents of these vesicles are dispersed into wall.

In a small high-speed D. I. diesel engine, the injected fuel spray into the atmosphere of the high temperature is burnt by go through the process of break up, atomization, evaporation and process of ignition. These process are important to decide the emission control and the rate of fuel consumption and out put of power. Especially, in the case of injected fuel spray impinging on the wall of piston cavity, the geometry of piston cavity gives great influence the ignitability of injected fuel and the flame structure. Ordinary, the combustion chamber of driving engine have unsteady turbulent flow be attendant on such as the change of temperature, velocity and pressure. So the analysis of spray behavior is difficult. In this study, the spray was impinged on the wall of 3 types of piston cavity such as Dish, Toroidal, Re-entrant type, in order to analyze the combustion process of impinging spray precisely and systematically. And hot wire probe was used for analyze non-steady flow characteristics of impinging spray, and to investigate the behavior of spray, the aspects of concentration c(t), standard deviation σ(t) and variation factor(vf) was measured with the lapse of time.

Restorative procedures can lead to weakening tooth due to reduction and alteraton of tooth structure. It is essential to prevent fractures to conserve tooth. Among the several parameters in cavity designs, cavity isthmus and depth are very important. In this study, MO amalgam cavity was prepared on maxillary first premolar. Three dimensional. finite element models were made by serial photographic method and cavity depth(1.7mm, 2.4mm) and isthmus (11 4, 1/3, 1/2 of intercuspal distance) were varied. linear, eight and six-nodal, isoparametric brick elements were used for the three dimensional finite element model. The periodontal ligament and alveolar bone surrounding the tooth were excluded in these models. Three types model(B, G and R model) were developed. B model was assumed perfect bonding between the restoration and cavity wall. Both compressive and tensile forces were distributed directly to the adjacent regions. G model(Gap Distance: 0.000001mm) was assumed the possibility of play at the interface simulated the lack of real bonding between the amalgam and cavity wall (enamel and dentin). When compression occurred along the interface, the forces were transferred to the adjacent regions. However, tensile forces perpendicular to the interface were excluded. R model was assumed non-connection between the restoration and cavity wall. No force was transferred to the adjacent regions. A load of 500N was applied vertically at the first node from the lingual slope of the buccal cusp tip. This study analysed the displacement, von Mises stress, 1 and 2 direction normal stress and strain with FEM software ABAQUS Version 5.2 and hardware IRIS 4D/310 VGX Work-station. The results were as follows: 1. G model showed stress and strain patterns between Band R model. 2. B model and G model showed the bending phenomenon in the displacement. 3. R model showed the greatest amount of the displacement of the buccal cusp followed by G and B model in descending order. G model showed the greatest amount of the displacement of the lingual cusp followed by B and R model in descending order. 4. B model showed no change of the displacement as increasing depth and width of the cavity. G and R model showed greater displacement of the buccal cusp as increasing depth and width of the cavity, but no change in the displacement of the lingual cusp. 5. As increasing of the width of the cavity, stress and strain were not changed in B model. Stress and strain were increased on the distal marginal ridge and buccopulpal line angle in G and R model. The possibility of the tooth fracture was increased. 6. As increasing of the depth of the cavity, stress and strain were not changed in B and G model. Stress and strain were increased on the distal marginal ridge and buccopulpal line angle in R model. The possibility of the tooth fracture was increased.
