Purpose: This study aimed to compare the chest compression quality between compression-only cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR) and conventional CPR. Methods: This study involved 123 participants randomly assigned to either the chest compression-only CPR training and conventional CPR training. After training for 120 min, the participants performed CPR for 4 min and the CPR quality was evaluated. The primary outcome was evaluated as the mean compression depth, and the secondary outcome was calculated as the proportion of chest compressions with an appropriate depth among the total chest compressions. Results: The mean compression depth was more deeper in conventional CPR than in compression-only CPR (57mm vs. 53mm, p <.001). The proportion of appropriate chest compression depth was also more higher in conventional CPR (98.8% vs. 68.6%, p <.001). As compared with every minute over time for a total of 4 min, the mean compression depth and the proportion of appropriate chest compression depth were deeper and higher after 1 min in conventional CPR than in compression-only CPR. Conclusion: The results suggested that conventional CPR is a better method than compression-only CPR in terms of chest compression quality.

Compression splices are required for all compression members in almost all of the floors in high-rise buildings. Therefore, a clear understanding of the behavior of compression splices can provide a rational design of compression splices. Tests of compression splices with bearing only and bond only cases were conducted to investigate the component resistance characteristics of compression splices. Test results showed that the circumferential tensile stresses induced by bearing and bond overlapped at the end of the splice length deterred bond and bearing splices from developing target splicing strength when both normal bond and bearing splices were used. In particular, the bearing strength was more significantly reduced than the bond strength since the bearing relied on the limited area near the end of the splice length. However, the strength of the normal splice was always higher than the strength of the bond only or the bearing only case. Consequently, the study results showed that splice strength in compression cannot be improved by means of removing bond or bearing. In addition, the bond strength in bond only splices was nearly same as the bond strength in tension splices and the strength increase of compression splice is attributed to end bearing only characteristic.

A vector timestamp is used to satisfy message ordering in a group communications. In this paper, we propose a new vector timestamp compression method which is applicable to a single process group environment where one process belongs to only one precess group. An existing compression method compares the fields of the previously sent vector timestamp with thouse of the currently updated vector timestamp, then sends only the modified fields of the vector timestamp. Unlike the previous one, a proposed compression method performs individual compression for each process using the locally maintained vector timestamp information on other processes. Also, we logicallyproved the causal ordering algorithm using the new compression method and compared the performance of the proposed method with one of the previous compression method by computer simulation. Using the proposed compression method, the message overhead required for causal ordering can be reduced.

It is an important issue to compress huge holographic data in a digital format. In particular, research on the compression of phase-only holograms for commercialization is noteworthy. Conventional video coding standards optimized for natural images are not suitable for compressing phase signals, and neural network-based compression model that can be optimized for phase signals can achieve high performance, but has a memory issue in learning high-resolution holographic data. In this paper, we show that by applying a block-based learned image compression model that can solve memory problems to phase-only holograms, the proposed method can demonstrate significant performance improvement over standard codecs even under the same conditions as block-based. Block-based learned compression model can provide compatibility with conventional standard codecs, solve memory problems, and can perform significantly better against phase-only hologram compression.

4D-Radiation Therapy is the optimal treatment to track moving organs(tumor) and give the appropriate prescription dose to tumor and low radiation dose to normal tissue surrounding tumor volume. The ABCHES is a 4DRT devices maintaining shallow breathing to patients. It allows the tumor's movement was minimize. Meanwhile, Abdominal compression device is limited the breath compressing abdomen on patients. In this paper we will quantitative analysis the movement of tumor on only ABCHES versus ABCHES with Abdomal compression device and Analysis tumor dose and normal tissue's dose by Dose Volume Histogram on two parts. The result of Comparision ABCHES and ABCHES with Abdominal compression device, SI(Superior-Inferior) direction, AP(Anterior-Posterior) direction and LR(Left-Right) direction was limited 1.0 mm, 0.2 mm, 0.2 mm(average). and also reduction rate of voluume in HPTV was $16{\pm}2%$, and LPTV was $15.8{\pm}0.8%$ under only using ABCHES and ABCHES with compression. The analysis dose volume histogram was more radiation dose in ABCHES and abdominal compression device than only using ABCHES, and less normal tissue-ipsilateral lung, whole lung, kidney-dose in ABCHES and abdominal compression device than only using ABCHES. The overall analysis was ABCHES with abdominal compression better than only using ABCHES method. In hereafter it will be studies that limitation of ABCHES and abdomonal compression device. In other words, patient's discomfort on compression intensity, method of application on patient with inaccurate respiration cycle.

It is still needed to study the effect of process conditions on the final properties of injection-molded parts for producing precision optical products. Especially, the optical anisotropy, i.e., birefringence, is a significant factor to affect the function of many optical components. In the present study we have focused on the effect of holding and compression processes on the birefringence remaining in the transparent disc by examining the gap-wise distribution of birefringence and extinction angle. As a result, two extra birefringence and extinction peaks near the center in thickness direction showed the effect of holding pressure, which came from the flow in packing stage. However, more uniform birefringence distribution than injection-only cases could be found in injection/compression cases. Depends on the process condition even the flow reversal could be found from the distribution of extinction angle. Finally, graphical representation of optical indicatrix was added for better understanding the final structure of injection-only and injection/compression cases.

The Otto Cycle of conventional gasoline engine has no difference between compression ratio and expension ratio. because of the same length of 4 strokes : Intake, compression, expension, exhaust. On the other hand, miller cycle engine achieves both low-compression ratio and high-compression ratio by shortening the length of compression stroke among 4 strokes. Therefore miller cycle engine is essential for lessening knocking and improving heat efficiency. This paper Is designed to discribe not only principle and the development trend of miller cycle engine but also the control system and the technical characteristics of it.

In this study, the reinforcement effect of the compression-only bridge seismic reinforcement method, which is mainly applied to old bridges, was studied through SSI analysis. As the analysis conditions, acceleration magnitudes of 0.1g, 0.15g, and 0.2 g were applied, and long-period and short-period seismic waves were applied. As a result of the analysis according to the assumed ground characteristics and structure size, the horizontal displacement at the reinforced section was reduced by about 9%, and the long-period seismic wave had a 95% larger displacement than the short-period seismic wave. In addition, an increase in acceleration of 0.1g resulted in a displacement of about 50%, and a large increase in displacement was observed in long-period seismic waves. As a result of the analysis, in the case of the compression-only bridge seismic reinforcement method, there was a reinforcing effect, so the field applicability was excellent.
