Early delayed radiation effects are known to occur within several months after completing radiotherapy for brain tumors. We present marked changes of magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) scan that occurred one month after radiotherapy in a patient with a pleomorphic xanthoastrocytoma, which was eventually diagnosed as an early delayed radiation effect. Such an early development of dramatic MRI change has not been reported in patients treated with radiotherapy for pleomorphic xanthoastrocytomas.

Delayed onset muscle soreness is a sensation of discomfort that occurs 24 h after exercise, and it is associated with the performance of unfamiliar and high force muscle work, such as eccentric contractions. The injury to the muscle has been well described but the mechanism underlying the injury is not fully understood. Although the pathophysiological processes underlying delayed onset muscle soreness are not completely understood, many researchers have investigated various treatments in a attempt to reduce the soreness. Physical therapy is the most importance techniques to reduce delayed onset muscle soreness. The purpose of this study is to investigate the effect of a cryotherapt on DOMS. Thirty subjects were randomly assigned to experimental group : control, cryotherapy, and placebo group. Elbow flexion range, mechanical pain threshold. and subjective pain were measured 30 min before DOMS was induced and 24, 48, 72 hours after DOMS was induced. The results of this study were as follows: 1. Elbow flexion range showed significant difference each time, especially at 48 and 72 hours 2. Mechanical pain thershold and subjectively pain showed no significant difference between group.

Traumatic diaphragmatic rupture is quite uncommon and rarely lethal injury. However, delayed presentation between the injury and the diagnosis can cause a life-threatening condition with various complications such as intestinal hernia, obstruction, strangulation, respiratory distress. Here, we present a case of delayed presentation of traumatic diaphragmatic rupture in a 51-year-old man, and then discuss about the clinical implication of delayed presentation of diaphragmatic rupture with a review.

This paper suggests a new method discretization of nonlinear system using Taylor series expansion and zero-order hold assumption. This method is applied into the sampled-data representation of a nonlinear system with input time delay. Additionally, the delayed input is time varying and its amplitude is bounded. The maximum time-delayed input is assumed to be two sampling periods. Them mathematical expressions of the discretization method are presented and the ability of the algorithm is tested for some of the examples. And 'hybrid' discretization scheme that result from a combination of the ‘scaling and squaring' technique with the Taylor method are also proposed, especially under condition of very low sampling rates. The computer simulation proves the proposed algorithm discretized the nonlinear system with the variable time-delayed input accurately.

For the earlier diagnosis and treatment of delayed wound healing in extraction socket, we investigated the clinical, radiographic and histopathologic features of 106 patients with delayed wound healing diagnosed by biopsy. The patients were enrolled at the Department of Oral Pathology, Chosun University Dental Hospital. Among 106 delayed wound healing diagnosed by biopsy, cysts showed most significant 25 cases (23%), osteomyelitis showed 13 cases (12%), chronic maxillary sinusitis and squamous cell carcinoma showed 12 (11%) and 11 (10%) cases, respectively. We have analyzed these lesions through relevant literatures.

Needle coke is an important material for graphite electrodes. Delayed coking is used to produce needle coke. Producing good quality needle coke is not simple because it is a multi-parameter controlled process. Apart from that, it is important to understand the mechanism responsible for the delayed coking process, which involves mesophase formation and uniaxial rearrangement. Temperature and pressure need to be optimized for the different substances in every feedstock. Saturate hydrocarbon, aromatic, resin and asphaltene compounds are the main components in the delayed coking process for a low Coefficient Thermal Expansion value. In addition, heteroatoms, such as sulphur, oxygen, nitrogen and metal impurities, must be considered for a better graphitization process that prevents the puffing effect and produces better mesophase formation.

In this paper, the problem of designing a feedback controller for a robotic manipulator, which is activated by a D.C. motor through a gear train and a flexible shaft or chain, is considered. When the response of the closed loop control system is relatively slow, a satisfactory controller may be designed as a PID controller. As the speed of the control system increases, however, the spring effect of the linkage becomes profound, and as a result, the transient response exhibits a substantial oscillation. To eliminate this oscillation, it is necessary to design the controller based on at least a fourth order system model. This, in turn, requires the feedback of the entire state variables. In practice, however, only the position of the manipulator and the velocity of the motor are readily measurable. The state variable reconstruction method or a state observer cannot be used because of the system nonlinearities such as the Coulomb frictions. In this study, an alternative controller, which is based on delayed feedback of the output variable only, is proposed, and a successful delayed feedback controller is designed and implemented on an actual experimental manipulator.

In this paper, the stabilization problem of the image stabilization system(ISS) that captures the image of an object on the ground by remote sensing is considered. The ISS should be stable under outer disturbance such as helicopter vibration for tracking line of sight. Although PID controllers are optimized for the system, disturbances cause the instability of the system. To minimize the effect of the disturbance, the time-delayed control method is used to compensate for uncertainties. Simulation studies are performed and experiments are conducted to confirm the simulation results. Performances of PID control and time-delayed control methods are compared.

This paper presents a delayed time path planning method of the Autonomous Mobile Robot using fuzzy logic controller for avoidance of obstacles in unknown environment. It is the objective of this paper to develop fuzzy control algorithms using delayed time techniques to deal with moving obstacles randomly. This control method gives the benefit of the collision free movement in real time and optimal path to the pre-settled goal. The computer simulations are demonstrated the effective of the suggested control method in obstacle avoidance.

This thesis deals with the design problem of the state estimator for digital servo system. Digital servo system has input time delay, which depends on the size of control algorithm. The delayed input is a factor that brings out the state estimation error. So, in order to reduce this state estimation error of the system, we proposes a state estimator in which the delayed input of the system is considered. At first, a discrete-time state-space model is established accounting for the delayed input. Next, the state estimator is designed based on this model. we employ Kalman filter algorithm in design of the state estimator. The performance of proposed state estimator is exemplified via some simulations and experiment for servo system. And robustness of the proposed estimator to modelling error by variation of the system parameter is also shown in these simulations.
