Clinical analysis was performed of 89 secundum type atrial septal defect patients operated on during the period from July, 15th, 1981 to March, 1987 in the Thoracic and Cardiovascular Surgery Department of Pusan National University Hospital. Secundum type ASD was 2`I.0% among all of congenital heart diseases operated in the same period. The age distribution of patients ranged from 3 to 41 years and sex ratio, male to female was 1.23 to 1.0. Common symptoms were exertional dyspnea 64.0%, frequent upper respiratory infection 43.8%, cyanosis 10.1% and fatigue 7.9%. The mean value of cardiac catheterization data of the group of ASD combined with another cardiovascular anomalies was compared with that of only ASD group. The amount of shunt showed not statistically significant difference between two groups [P>0.05] but pulmonary arterial pressure and pulmonary vascular resistance of combined group was significantly higher than that of only ASD group [P<0.02, P<0.01]. The difference of mean hemodynamic data between the age group below 20 years and above 21 years was not statistically significant [P>0.05]. All cases were operated under cardiopulmonary bypass. Among these 51 were closed directly and 38 were applied Dacron patch. Two most common associated cardiac anomalies were pulmonary stenosis [8 cases, 9.0%] and VSD [8 cases, 9.0%]. The most frequent postoperative complication was wound infection, One patient died of low cardiac output on 10th postoperative day and the overall operative mortality was 1.1%

The Fontan procedure was physiological correction which was initially applied to tricuspid atresia. We had used the modified Fontan operation in 8 cases at National Medical Center, Seoul, from Aug. 1984 to Oct. 1986. Age range was 20 months to 15 years [mean: 9 years] and male: female ratio was 5:3. 5 patients had tricuspid atresia [lb: 2 cases, Ic: 1 case, lib: 1 case, & llc: 1 case], 2 Patients had univentricular heart of left ventricular type, and one patient had transposition of great arteries with complete endocardial cushion defect. The operative principle was direct anastomosis between right atrium and pulmonary artery, whether main pulmonary artery or right pulmonary artery without any conduits. Postoperatively all patients needed high central venous pressure for adequate hemodynamic status in both survival [20-24 CmH2O] and mortality groups [20-24 CmH2O]. The fatal complications were as follows: empyema with bronchopleural fistula [1 case], bleeding tendency & brain damage [1 case], low cardiac output syndrome & acute renal failure [2 cases], and right to left shunt of unknown origin [1 case]. There were 5 hospital deaths; 3 of 5 tricuspid atresia patients, 1 of 2 univentricular heart patients, and 1 of 1 transposition of great arteries with complete endocar4ial cushion defect patient. The overall mortality was 62.5%. 3 survivors were nearly compatible with Choussat & Fontan criteria. Thus appropriate patient selection and experienced surgical technique were required for good results.

This series compromised 31 patients with pulmonary hypertension of 282 patients of ventricular septal defect(VSD) who underwent operation at the department of Thoracic and Cardiovascular Surgery in Chonnam University Hospital, from January, 1986 to December, 1991. Pulmonary hypertension was noted in 59 of 280 cases of VSD. Of them, 31 cases underwent cardiac catheterization on postoperative 8th to 77th month. Age at operation was ranged from 10 months to 29 years (mean 9.13 years). 17 patients were male and 14 patients were female. Results of follow-up studies were as follows: Cardiothoracic ratio was decreased from 0.59${\pm}$0.04 to 0.54${\pm}$0.03 (p=NS). Postoperative systolic pulmonary arterial pressure (PAPs), mean pulmonary arterial pressure (PAPm), and systolic right ventricular pressure (RVPs) were decreased significantly (p<0.001). And also Rp/Rs was decreased from 0.37${\pm}$0.21 to 0.14${\pm}$0.06 (p<0.02). However, systemic arterial pressure (SAP), right atrial pressure (RAP), and pulmonary capillary wedge pressure (PCWP) were changed insignificantly. There were significant relations of follow-up period with the decrement of PAP(p<0.005). In contrary, ther were no relations between the decrement of PAP and the age at operation. These data suggested that the long-term hemodynamic changes remained to be determined in some of the patients, even though they Were asymptomatic, with pulmonary hypertension.

Surface defects in injection molded parts are due to the unsteady flow of polymer melt which are related to the geometries of cavity and gate, the operational conditions of injection and the rheological properties of polymer. In this study we have examined jetting phenomena in injection molding process for three kinds of PCs which have different molecular weight and structure, PBT and PC/ABS alloy with several injection speeds. We have used various cavity shapes that are tensile, flexural and impact test specimens with various gate and cavity thicknesses. Through this study we have observed that the formation of surface defect associated with jetting during filling stage in injection molding is strongly related to die swell. This means that the jetting is strongly affected by the elastic property rather than the viscous property in viscoelastic characteristics of molten polymer. Large die swell would eliminate jetting however, the retardation of die swell would stimulate jetting. In the point of mold design, reducing the thickness ratio of cavity to gate can reduce or eliminate jetting and associated surface defects regardless of magnitude of elastic property. It also enlarges process window that can produce steady flow of polymer melt in injection molding.

Die casting process of Mg alloys for high temperature applications was studied to produce an engine oil pan. The aim of this paper is to evaluate die casting processes of the Aluminium oil pan and in parallel to apply new Mg alloy for die casting the oil pan. Temperature distributions of the die and flow pattern of the alloys in cavity were simulated to diecast a new Mg alloy by the flow simulation software. Dies have to be modified according to material characteristics because melting temperature and heat capacity are different. We changed the shape and position of runner, gate, vent hole and overflow by the simulation results. After several trial and error, oil pans of AE44 and MRI153M Mg alloys are produced successfully without defect. Sleeve filling ratio, cavity filling time and shot speed of die casting machine are important parameter to minimize the defect for die casting Magnesium alloy.

This paper is concerned with the effect of cylinder wakes upstream on blade characteristics of compressor cascade(NCA 65 series). At first, it is found that the velocity defect ratio of cylinder wake varies according to the acceleration and deceleration in a flow field but, is conserved nearly constant at flow downstream the cascade, irrespective of the flow path in the cascade. When a cylinder wake flows along near the suction surface of the blade, or impinges on the leading edge, the turbulent velocities are supplied on or inside the outer edge of boundary layer near the leading edge of suction surface, and the transition to a transitional or turbulent boundary layers is induced, so that the laminar separation is prevented, but the profile loss increases. The transition of boundary layer to a transitional or turbulent one is strongly related with the strength of added turbulent velocities near the leading edge on the suction surface, which is influenced by the flow path of a cylinder wake.

In this study, optical diagnosis of plasma was performed for nitrogen doping in graphene using a horizontal inductively coupled plasma (ICP) system. Graphene was prepared by mechanical exfoliation and the ICP system using nitrogen gas was ignited for plasma-induced and defect-suppressed nitrogen doping. In order to derive the optimum condition for the doping, plasma power, working pressure, and treatment time were changed. Optical emission spectroscopy (OES) was used as plasma diagnosis method. The Boltzmann plot method was adopted to estimate the electron excitation temperature using obtained OES spectra. Ar ion peaks were interpreted as a reference peak. As a result, the change in the concentration of nitrogen active species and electron excitation temperature depending on process parameters were confirmed. Doping characteristics of graphene were quantitatively evaluated by comparison of intensity ratio of graphite (G)-band to 2-D band, peak position, and shape of G-band in Raman profiles. X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy also revealed the nitrogen doping in graphene.
