Flow visualizations have been carried out to analyze the characteristics of bubby flows exhausted from a venturi-type bubble generator with an air vent. For various design parameters and operating conditions of the bubble generator, the images of bubbly flows was recorded using a high-speed camera and a microscope. Then the amount and size distribution of bubble was evaluated by an image processing technique. The results show that for increasing the amount of bubble, it is more effective to reduce the venturi throat than to enlarge the air vent diameter. If the water flow rate increases, the bubble generation rate increases but reaches a status of saturation, whose condition depends on Reynolds number at a given air vent diameter. The bubble size increases as the diameter of venturi throat decreases and Reynolds number increases. However, the air vent diameter is not a significant factor on bubble size.

The objective of this study is to determine the appropriate size of the inlet pipe diameter and thereby conduct hydraulic analysis for the Korean water distribution network. To this end, the data tables for equivalent pipe diameters and outflow rates presently employed in Korea were adopted. By incorporating the table of equivalent pipe diameters, it was found that the size of the inlet pipe diameter was overestimated, which can cause shortage of water pressure and malfunctioning or insufficiency of outflow rate in the corresponding adjacent region. However, by conducting hydraulic analysis based on the table of outflow rates, relatively reasonable flow rates were observed. Furthermore, by comparing the real demand-driven analysis (RDDA) approach and demand-driven analysis (DDA) approach toward managing the huge water demand, it was observed that DDA could not effectively respond to real hourly usage conditions, whereas RDDA (which reflects the hourly effects of inlet pipe diameter and storage tanks) demonstrated results similar to that of real water supply.

서론: 성장기에서 기관의 성장양상에 관한 이해는 수많은 기관질병의 관리나 선천성 기관협착증에서 기관 성형술 등에서 매우 중요한 지표가 된다. 그러나 이에 관한 국내의 연구례가 거의없는 실정이다. 본 연구는 한국인 소아에서 기관의 내경과 단면적을 후향적으로 분석하여 기관질환의 치료에 기초자료를 제공하고자 한다. 대상 및 방법: 1996년 5월부터 1998년 8월까지 흉부전산화 단층촬영을 시행한 0세부터 20세까지 106명의 환자를 대상으로 하였는데 기관의 내경이나 단면적에 영향을 줄 수 있는 기관질환, 과거에 개흉술을 받은 경우, 종격동 종양, 폐쇄성 폐질환이 있는 경우는 본 연구에서 제외시켰다. 남자가 69명, 여자가 37명이었으며 기관의 종단내경과 횡단내경은 흉부유입부와 대동맥궁 부위에서 각각 측정하였다. 기관의 형태는 각 부위의 단면에서 원형, 타원형, 말발굽형으로 구분하였으며 단면적은 A = 1/4$\pi$ab (A: 단면적, $\pi$: 3.14, a: 종단내경, b: 횡단내경)의 공식으로 계산하여 각 부위의 내경과 연령 및 성별에 따른 단면적을 비교 분석하였다. 통계처리에서 p값이 0.05이하일 때 통계적 의미가 있는 것으로 간주하였다. 결과: 5세이하에서는 level I과 II 모두에서 기관의 형태가 원형을 이루고 있었으며 두 부위간의 단면적의 차이는 없었다. 성장함에 따라 level I의 형태는 타원형으로 변해가는 반면 level II에서는 그대로 원형을 유지하고 있었으며 level I의 단면적이 level II 보다 크다(p=0.020). 기관의 내경과 단면적은 성장함에 따라 직선관계로 증가한다는 것이 확인되었고(r>0.9), 5세이하의 소아에서는 여자가 남자보다 기관의 단면적이 크고 (p=0.020) 15세가 넘으면 반대로 남자가 더 크다 (p=0.002). 결론: 이상의 결과에서 흉부전산화 단층촬영은 기관의 내경과 단면적을 측정하는데 있어 안전하고 확실한 방법이며 성장기의 한국인에서 기관의 내경과 단면적에 대한 지표가 되고자 한다.

Light scattering coefficient of visible light by atmospheric aerosol over the size range 0.01-10$\mu$m is determined from scattering efficiency and aerosol size distribution. Aerosol number distribution as a function of particle diameter dN/dlog D decreases rapidly as increasing particle size. Distribution of scattering coefficient d$\sigma_s/dlog$ D is mostly accumulated in diameter 0.1-2.0 $\mu$m showing its maximum in the vicinity of 0.6$\mu$m. This means that the visible light in the atmosphere is mainly scattered by these particles. Diurnal variation of scattering coefficient $\sigma_s$ appears its maximum in the morning, while minimum in the afternoon which agrees with the aerosol number distribution in the size range 0.1-2.0 $\mu$m.

When a patient was irradiated with prosthetic hip, the dose distribution was changed according to inhomogeneous materials. The density, effective atomic number, and the composition of material had influence on absorbed dose distribution. In this study, the influence of inhomogeneous material(Ti) was measured using a polyethylene phantom, which consisted of various diameter of titanium, with film dosimetry. As a result, the backward dose showed 29.5% increas by backscattering, the forward dose showed 28% decreas by absorption, and the side dose showed 7% increas by scattering, when 25 mm diameter Ti was used. In addition forward dose was in inverse proportion to the thickness of prosthetic material. When the prosthetic hip of patient is in an irradiated field, we must carefully study the absorbed dose distribution.

The use of short implants has been accepted risky from biomechanical point of view. However, short implants appear to be a long term viable solution according to recent clinical reports. The purpose of this study was to investigate the effect of different diameter and length of implant size to the different type of bone on the load distribution pattern. Stress analysis was performed using 3-dimensional finite element analysis(3D-FEA). A three-dimensional linear elastic model was generated. All implants modeled were of the various diameter(${\phi}4.0$, 4.5, 5.0 and 6.0 mm) and varied in length, at 7.0, 8.5 and 10.0 mm. Each implant was modeled with a titanium abutment screw and abutment. The implants were seated in a supporting D2 and D4 bone structure consisting of cortical and cancellous bone. An amount of 100 N occlusal load of vertical and $30^{\circ}$ angle to axis of implant and to buccolingual plane were applied. As a result, the maximum equivalent stress of D2 and D4 bones has been concentrated upper region of cortical bone. As the width of implant is increased, the equivalent stress is decreased in cancellous bone and stress was more homogeneously distributed along the implants in all types of bone. The short implant of diameter 5.0mm, 6.0mm showed effective stress distribution in D2 and D4 bone. The oblique force of 100N generated more concentrated stress on the D2 cortical bone. Within the limitations of this study, the use of short implant may offer a predictable treatment method in the vertically restricted sites.

The market size of engineered nanoparticles is rapidly increasing due to the fast application of nanotechnologies into different industries and consumer products. The development of new technology and materials has improved human's quality of life, but it also entails the possibility of exposure to new materials. In this study, we compared the distribution in the body by the inflow of silver nanoparticles having another diameter and shape at 1 h or 24 h after injection via the tail vein. And, we compared the cell composition and cytokine concentration in BAL fluid, and histopathological changes. As results, discharge of silver nanoparticles having small diameter and sphere shape was more rapid than that of big diameter or plate shape. It is estimated that the toxicity in liver and lung was proportional to accumulation level. The persistence of inflammation was also longer in mice treated with plate shape. Consequently, we suggest that the first choice of silver nanoparticles having small diameter and sphere shape in applying is desirable.

Numerical analysis of the flow field in the reactive medium of End-Burring combustor is studied in order to investigate the combustion characteristics of hybrid combustion. The main part of this study is focused on the port diameter effects of oxidizer injector on the temperature distribution within the reactive field. It is found that the case having the largest port diameter(25 mm) delivers the optimum conditions for the design of End-Burring combustor where the predicted temperature field showed the most acceptable distribution.

Motivation: Fibers as the extracellular filamentous structures determine the shape of the cytoskeletal structures. Their characterization and reconstruction from a 3D cellular image represent very useful quantitative information at the cellular level. In this paper, we presented a novel automatic method to extract fiber diameter distribution through a pipeline to reconstruct fibers from 3D fluorescence confocal images. The pipeline is composed of four steps: segmentation, skeletonization, template fitting and fiber tracking. Segmentation of fiber is achieved by defining an energy based on tensor voting framework. After skeletonizing segmented fibers, we fit a template for each seed point. Then, the fiber tracking step reconstructs fibers by finding the best match of the next fiber segment from the previous template. Thus, we define a fiber as a set of templates, based on which we calculate a diameter distribution of fibers.
