기저유출은 지표하를 통하여 느리게 하천으로 유입되며 하천 관리에 있어서 중요한 요소이다. 기저유출의 정확한 파악을 위하여 본 연구에서 활용된 주지하수감수곡선(MRC) 방법을 포함한 다양한 방법들이 연구되었지만, 측정 불가능한 기저유출의 특성상 정량적인 평가는 어렵다. MRC를 활용한 선행 연구들은 연구 기간 내에 존재하는 모든 감수부를 활용하였으며 이는 국내환경에서 부정확한 MRC를 유도하였다. 본 연구는 기존에 행해지던 주지하수감수곡선(MRC) 분리방법을 국내 특성을 고려하여 계절과 유황특성으로 구분하고 기저유출 분리에 적용하였다. 연구대상지역은 한강, 낙동강 그리고 금강수계에서 각 3곳의 유량관측점을 선정하여 총 9 곳이며, 수리구조물의 영향이 없도록 상류지역에서 선정하였다. MRC를 도출하기 위하여 기존에 제작된 프로그램을 사용하였으며, 관측점 별로 총 세 개의 MRC를 도출하였다. 전체 기간에 대한 MRC와 본 연구에서 구분한 계절과 유황을 고려한 MRC 두 가지이다. 유황을 고려한 MRC는 낮은 R2값과 감수곡선과 비슷한 추세의 MRC를 도출하였다. 계절을 고려한 MRC의 경우 기저유출분리에 적합한 양상을 보여주었으며 계절별 특성이 뚜렷하게 반영된 MRC를 도출하였다. 두 가지 방법에 따라 도출된 MRC를 비교하였을 때, 계절을 고려한 MRC는 기존의 MRC를 사용한 분리과정에서 과산정 되었던 기저유출량이 감소되고 안정되게 분리되었다. 유황을 고려한 MRC의 경우 그래프 상의 감수부가 다양한 감수양상을 가지고 있었으며 이에 따라 낮은 R2값의 MRC가 도출되었다. 따라서 기저유출을 분리하기 위해선 계절을 고려한 MRC가 더 높은 정확성을 보일 것으로 판단되며, 유황을 고려한 MRC의 경우, 추가적인 보정 작업을 통해서 신뢰도 높은 MRC의 도출이 필요할 것으로 판단된다.

수문모형의 최적 매개변수를 추정하기 위해서 자동최적화기법이 자주 이용되며, 이러한 최적화기법은 관측값과 모의값의 오차를 최소로 하기 위해 목적함수를 필요로 한다. 다만, 다양한 목적함수 선택에 따라 각기 다른 수문응답 결과를 제공할 수 있다. 본 연구에서는 국내·외에서 사용되는 다양한 목적함수를 활용하여 단기 강우-유출 수문모형의 매개변수를 추정하고, 목적함수에 따른 수문곡선의 재현성을 평가하고, 적정 목적함수를 제시하고자 하였다. 강우-유출 모형으로는 현행 홍수예보에서 유역 유출모의에 활용되고 있는 집중형 수문모형인 저류함수모형을 선택하였으며, 모형의 5개 매개변수에 대해서 전역최적화기법인 SCE-UA를 적용하여 모형의 최적매개변수를 추정하였다. 목적함수별 수문곡선의 재현성 평가를 위해 용담댐 상류유역인 천천유역을 대상으로 9개의 강우사상을 추출하였으며, 7개의 목적함수를 선택하여 개별 강우사상별로 저류함수모형의 매개변수를 추정하고, 이를 활용한 모의 수문곡선의 재현성을 비교·분석하였다. 분석결과, 목적함수에 오차제곱을 포함하고 있는 RMSE, NSE, RSR이 Event 7을 제외한 모든 강우사상에 대해 가장 높은 정확도를 나타냈으며, 관측유량과 모의유량의 오차만을 반영한 ABIAS의 경우, 정확도가 가장 낮은 것으로 분석되었다. 또한, 관측유량 대비 오차 항을 포함하고 있는 PBIAS 및 VE의 경우 역시, 상기 3개(RMSE, NSE, RSR)의 결과와 유사하게 비교적 안정적인 수문곡선 재현성을 보여주었다. 다만, 고유량과 저유량을 동시에 고려하여 이에 민감한 매개변수를 조정하도록 개발된 MIA의 경우, 수문곡선 재현성 성능이 매우 낮은 것으로 나타났다.

최근 데이터 경제가 가속화되면서 경영학 분야에서는 데이터 매칭이라는 새로운 기법이 주목받고 있다. 데이터 매칭은 모집단이 같지만 서로 다른 표본에서 수집된 데이터셋을 합치는 기법 또는 처리 과정을 의미한다. 그중에서 통계적 매칭은 서로 다른 데이터를 결합하는데 있어서 사업자 번호와 같이 기준이 되는 변수가 없는 경우 통계적 함수를 활용하여 데이터를 매칭하는 방법이다. 선행연구 검토결과 경제학, 교육학, 보건, 의료 등 다양한 분야에서 통계적 매칭이 많이 사용되고 있는데 반해 경영학 분야는 제한적임을 확인할 수 있었다. 본 연구는 기존 경영학 분야에서 충분히 연구되지 않았던 통계적 매칭의 유용성을 검증하고 활용도를 높이는 방안을 연구하고자 한다. 연구목적을 달성하기 위해 본 연구에서는 2020 벤처기업정밀실태조사와 2020 한국기업혁신조사 자료를 활용하여 통계적 매칭 시뮬레이션을 수행하였다. 먼저, 선행연구를 바탕으로 통계적 매칭에 사용되는 변수를 선정하였다. 공통변수는 업종, 종업원수, 지역, 업력, 상장시장, 매출로 설정하였고, 검증을 위한 고유변수와 제공변수는 중소기업 혁신에서 가장 중요한 연구인력 비율과 R&D 비용으로 각각 설정하였다. 사전 검증을 위해 2020 벤처기업정밀실태조사 자료를 수여자 데이터 30%와 기여자 데이터 70%로 분할하였다. 통계적 매칭에는 마할라노비스 거리와 랜덤 핫덱을 결합한 방식을 사용하였고, 성능평가는 수여자 데이터와 원시 데이터의 평균값 비교와 커널 밀도 함수(Kernel Density Estimation)를 통해 데이터 분포를 비교하였다. 검증결과, 수여자 데이터 30%와 기여자 데이터 70%에서 추출된 매칭 데이터의 평균값이 통계적으로 유의한 차이가 없는 것으로 나타나 유사한 데이터가 매칭된다는 것을 확인하였다. 또한, 두 데이터의 커널 밀도 함수로 도출한 데이터 분포 역시 유사한 형태가 나타나는 것을 확인할 수 있었다. 사후 검증에는 2020 벤처기업정밀실태조사에서 임의로 30%를 수여자 데이터로 추출하고 2020 한국기업혁신조사 자료를 기여자 데이터로 설정하여 통계적 매칭을 수행하고 검증하였다. 사전 검증과 마찬가지로 공통변수는 업종, 종업원수, 지역, 업력, 상장시장, 매출로 설정하였고, 검증을 위한 고유변수는 연구 인력 비율과 R&D 비용으로 정의하였다. 분석 결과, 수여자 데이터의 연구인력 비율의 평균과 기여자 데이터의 평균은 예상과 다르게 통계적으로 차이가 있는 것으로 나타났다. 하지만 커널 밀도 함수에 따른 두 데이터의 분포는 유사한 형태를 보이는 것으로 조사되어 통계적 매칭의 적절성을 확인할 수 있었다. R&D 비용은 통계적 매칭 수행 결과, 수여자 데이터의 R&D 비용 평균과 기여자 데이터의 평균이 통계적으로 차이가 없었고, 커널 밀도 함수도 유사한 분포를 보이는 것으로 조사되었다. 이러한 결과는 모집단은 동일하지만 서로 다른 표본에서 수집된 자료를 통계적으로 결합하여 신뢰할 수 있는 새로운 데이터를 확보할 수 있다는 측면에서 큰 의의가 있다. 또한, 경영학 분야에서 많이 사용되지 않았던 데이터 매칭 방법론을 모의실험을 통해 타당성을 검증함으로써 연구용 데이터 확보와 연구방법론의 확장에 기여했다는 점에서 시사점을 가진다.

이 논문은 total flux leakage (TFL) 방법을 이용해 외부텐던을 비파괴검사 하는 솔레노이드 형태의 센서의 측정 신호를 후처리하는 방법을 소개한다. 기존에 개발된 TFL 솔레노이드 센서는 1차 코일과 2차 코일로 이루어져 1차 코일에 정현파 형태의 교류를 입력하면 2차 코일에 그 미분에 비례하는 신호가 측정된다. 이때 진폭은 텐던의 단면에 비례하므로 파단 및 부식 여부를 확인할 수 있다. 따라서 TFL센서의 측정신호에서 진폭정보를 추출 하는 것이 중요한데 기존에는 단순히 극댓값을 모아 진폭정보를 취득했다. 하지만 이 방법을 사용하면 측정빈도가 크게 낮아져 추가적인 신호처리 및 인공지능 적용에 많은 제약이 생긴다. 이 논문은 높은 측정빈도를 가진 진폭정보를 추출하기 위해 진폭복조를 응용해 진폭정보를 획득하는 방법을 제시한다. 진폭복조를 이용해 진폭정보를 취득하면 측정빈도를 원시신호와 동일한 수준으로 유지할 수 있다. 이 방법은 TFL센서의 1차 코일 입력 주파수 선택과 센서를 외부텐던에 적용하는 속도 등에 제약을 없애주어 개발 방향에 많은 자유도를 부여한다. 또한 높은 측정빈도를 유지하므로 추가적인 신호처리나 인공지능 등을 활용 하는데 유리함을 제공한다. 제안된 방법은 실내실험을 통해 검증 되었으며 기존 방법과 비교해 어떤 장점이 있는지 분석했다. 제시된 예제의 경우 진폭복조를 사용한 방법이 기존 방법에 비해 100배 높은 측정빈도를 제공 하는 것을 확인 할 수 있었다. 주어진 상황과 구체적인 장비 설정에 따라 차이가 있겠지만 대부분의 경우 진폭복조를 사용해 진폭정보를 추출하면 기존 방법 대비 만족할만한 결과를 얻을 수 있을 것이다.

본 연구는 다년생 목본작물 바이오매스에 대한 해외 주요국가들의 산정 방법과 연구사례를 분석하였다. 주요국별 다년생 목본작물의 탄소축적 변화량 산정 방법을 살펴본 결과, 호주, 캐나다, 일본, 불가리아 등은 축적차이법을 적용하고 있는 것으로 확인되었으며, 독일, 오스트리아와 덴마크 등은 획득손실법을 기반으로 탄소축적 변화량을 산정하고 있는 것으로 나타났다. 또한, 해외의 경우, 2단계 고도화연구를 통해 계수를 자체 개발하는 단계를 넘어 영상자료를 활용한 탄소축적 변화량 추정 연구를 진행하고 있는 반면, 국내의 경우 2단계 고도화연구를 시작하는 단계인 것으로 나타났다. 이러한 결과를 기반으로, 국내에서 향후 필요한 연구 네 가지를 제안하고자 한다: 1) 배출·흡수량 통계의 완전성 제고를 위한 과수별 바이오매스 상대생장식 및 탄소전환계수와 이를 활용하여 산출된 단위면적(ha)당 탄소축적량 같은 국가고유계수에 대한 자체 개발, 2) 과수별 바이오매스 기준 성목 및 벌채 주기에 대한 정의와 고도화된 연령별 재배면적 산정방법론에 대한 정책연구, 3) 2025년 발사 예정인 농림위성을 기반으로 상대생장식 및 원격탐사기법을 활용하여 농경지 부문 다년생 목본작물의 고도화된 산정기법을 개발하는 연구, 그리고 농경지 부문 다년생 목본작물 재배지 매트릭스 구축 및 모니터링 체계를 확립하는 연구, 마지막으로, 4) 동적탄소순환모형을 구현하기 위해, 현재 전체 농경지들을 하나로 취급하여 산정하고 있는 토양의 탄소축적 변화량을 하위 토지분류별로 구분하여 산정하는 연구들이 반드시 필요할 것이다. 본 연구는 비교대상 국가가 8개국으로 한정되어 전세계 국가의 다년생 목본작물에 대한 정의 및 탄소축적 변화량 연구에 대한 일반화에 한계점이 존재한다. 그러나, 주요국별 다년생 목본작물 탄소축적 변화량 산정방법 비교·분석을 통해, 국내 다년생 목본작물의 관련 연구를 위해 필요한 단계별 접근방식과 탄소축적 변화량 산정방법을 제안하였다. 이는 2050 농식품부 탄소중립 추진전략, 농업분야 탄소중립 실현을 위한 기반 구축 및 관련 연구 활성화에 기여할 것으로 기대된다.

대기 중 에어로졸은 인체에 악영향을 끼칠 뿐 아니라 기후 시스템에도 직간접적인 영향을 미치므로 에어로졸의 특성과 시공간적인 분포에 대한 이해는 매우 중요하다. 이를 위해 위성기반 관측을 통해 에어로졸 광학 두께(Aerosol Optical Depth, AOD)를 산출하여 에어로졸을 모니터링하는 다양한 연구가 수행되어 왔다. 하지만 이는 주로 조견표를 활용한 역 산출 알고리즘에 기반하여 이루어지기 때문에 많은 계산량을 요구하며 불확실성이 존재한다. 따라서, 본 연구에서는 Geostationary Ocean Color Imager-II (GOCI-II)의 대기상한반사도와 30일 동안의 대기상한반사도 중 최솟값과 관측 시점 값의 차이 값, 수치 모델 기반 기상학적 변수 등을 활용하여 기계학습 기반 고해상도 AOD 직접 산출 알고리즘을 개발하였다. Light Gradient Boosting Machine (LGBM) 기법이 사용되었으며, 추정된 결과는 지상 관측 자료인 Aerosol Robotic Network (AERONET) AOD를 활용하여 랜덤, 시간 및 공간별 N-fold 교차검증을 통해 검증되었다. 세 가지 교차검증 결과 R²=0.70-0.80, RMSE=0.08-0.09, 기대오차(Expected Error, EE) 안에 있는 비율은 75.2-85.1% 수준으로 안정적인 성능을 보였다. Shapley Additive exPlanations (SHAP) 분석에서는 반사도 관련 변수들이 기여도의 상위권 대부분을 차지하고 있는 것을 통해 반사도 자료가 AOD 추정에 많은 기여를 하는 것을 확인하였다. 서울과 울산 지역에 대한 시간 별 AOD의 공간 분포를 분석한 결과, 개발된 LGBM 모델은 시간의 흐름에 따라 AERONET AOD 값과 유사한 수준으로 AOD를 추정하고 있었다. 이를 통해 높은 시공간 해상도(i.e., 시간별, 250 m)에서의 AOD 산출이 가능함을 확인하였다. 또한, 산출 커버리지 비교에서 LGBM 모델의 평균 산출 빈도가 GOCI-II L2 AOD 산출물 대비 8.8%가량 증가한 것을 통해 기존 물리모델기반 AOD 산출 과정에서 발생하던 밝은 지표면에 대한 과도한 마스킹의 문제점을 개선시킨 것을 확인하였다.

클라우드 플랫폼을 이용한 빅데이터 처리기술의 발달로 위성영상과 같이 용량이 큰 자료에 대한 접근 및 처리와 분석이 최근 획기적으로 개선되고 있다. 본 연구에서는 그 플랫폼 중 하나인 Google Earth Engine (GEE) 기반의 전처리 완료된 Sentinel-1 합성개구레이더(synthetic aperture radar, SAR) 위성영상 자료의 후방산란계수 값에 비교적 간단한 토양수분량 추출 방법인 Change Detection Method를 적용하여, 2015~2023년의 국내 용담댐 유역 내 6개 관측소 지점 및 유역 평균에 대한 지표 토양수분량을 산정 후 실측과의 상관성 분석 및 GEE의 활용성을 검토하였다. 그 결과 SAR 위성영상 자체의 지표 측정 정확도와 자료간 특성 변동 등으로 인해 유역 내 관측소별 일부구역에 대해 산정한 지점 지표 토양수분량은 VH와 VV 편파에서 모두 0.1~0.3 수준의 낮은 상관성이 확인된 반면, 유역 전체 면적에 대한 평균 SAR 후방산란계수 값 추출 및 이동평균으로 자료의 불확실성 및 변동성을 완화시킨 유역 평균 지표 토양수분량은 0.5 수준의 향상된 결과를 보였다. 이렇게 GEE를 활용하여 산정된 토양수분량의 결과는 SAR 자료의 전처리에 있어 직접적으로 원하는 분석을 수행하지 못하는 제한점은 있지만, 방대한 위성영상 자료를 효율적으로 처리하여 장기간의 유역 평균과 같은 넓은 범위의 토양수분량을 산정, 평가해 볼 수 있다는 점에서 그 활용성을 확인할 수 있었다. 이를 바탕으로 향후 국내 여러 지점의 지표 토양수분량 관측자료와 연계해 주요 댐 유역의 평균지표 토양수분량 장기 변화 파악 등에 유용하게 활용될 수 있을 것으로 기대된다.

The wall shear stress in the vicinity of end-to end anastomoses under steady flow conditions was measured using a flush-mounted hot-film anemometer(FMHFA) probe. The experimental measurements were in good agreement with numerical results except in flow with low Reynolds numbers. The wall shear stress increased proximal to the anastomosis in flow from the Penrose tubing (simulating an artery) to the PTFE: graft. In flow from the PTFE graft to the Penrose tubing, low wall shear stress was observed distal to the anastomosis. Abnormal distributions of wall shear stress in the vicinity of the anastomosis, resulting from the compliance mismatch between the graft and the host artery, might be an important factor of ANFH formation and the graft failure. The present study suggests a correlation between regions of the low wall shear stress and the development of anastomotic neointimal fibrous hyperplasia(ANPH) in end-to-end anastomoses. 30523 T00401030523 ^x Air pressure decay(APD) rate and ultrafiltration rate(UFR) tests were performed on new and saline rinsed dialyzers as well as those roused in patients several times. C-DAK 4000 (Cordis Dow) and CF IS-11 (Baxter Travenol) reused dialyzers obtained from the dialysis clinic were used in the present study. The new dialyzers exhibited a relatively flat APD, whereas saline rinsed and reused dialyzers showed considerable amount of decay. C-DAH dialyzers had a larger APD(11.70$\pm$1.32mmHg/min)compared to CF dialyzers(4.32$\pm$0.55mmHg/min)(p<0.05). However, there was no observable difference in the UFR between the two dialyzers. Neither APD nor UFR showed any significant increase with an increasing number of reuses for up to more than 20reuses. A substantial number of failures observed in APD(larger than 20mmHe/min)on the reused dialyzers(2 out of 40 CP and S out 26 C-DAK) were attributed to the Possible damage on the fibers. The CF 15-11 HFDs which failed APD test did not show changes in the UFR compared to normal dialyzers indicating that APD is a more sensitive test than UFR test to evaluate the integrity of the fibers. 30527 T00401030527 ^x For quantitative measurement of reflected light from a clinical diagnostic strip, a prototype old reflectance photometer was designed. The strip loader and cassette were made to obtain more accurate reflectance parameters. The strip was illuminated at 45˚c through optical fiber and the intensity of reflected light was determined at rectanguLat angle using a photodiode. The kubelka-munk coefficient and reflection optical density were determined ar four different wavelengths(500, 550, 570 and 610nm) for blood glucose strip. For higher concentration than 300mg/41 about glucose, a saturation state of abforbance was observed at 500, 550 and 570nm. The correlation between glucose concentration and parameters was the best at 610nm. 30535 T00401030535 ^x Radiation-induced fibrosarcoma tumors were grown on the flanks of C3H mice. The mice were divided into two groups. One group was injected with Photofrin II, intravenously (2.5mg/kg body weight). The other group received no Photofrin II. Mice from both groups were irradialed for approximately 15 minutes at 100, 300, or 500 mW/cm2 with the argon (488nm/514.5 nm), dye(628nm) and gold vapor (pulsed 628 nm) laser light. A photosensitizer behaved as an added absorber. Under our experimental conditions, the presence of Photolfrin II increased surface temperature by at least 40% and the temperature rise due to 300 mW/cm2 irradiation exceeded values for hyperthermia. Light and temperature distributions with depth were estimated by a computer model. The model demonstrated the influence of wavelength on the thermal process and proved to be a valuable tool to investigate internal temperature rise. 30536 T00401030536 ^x We investigated the structural geometry of thirty-eight Korean femurs. The purpose of this study is to identify major geometrical differences between Korean femurs 3nd others that we believe belong to Caucasians so that we would be able to get insights into the femoral component design that fits Asians including Koreans. We utilized computerized tomography (CT) images of femurs extracted from cadavers. The CT images were transformed into bitmap data by using a film scanner, and then analyzed by using a commercially available software called Image v.1.0 and a Macintosh IIci computer.The resulting data were compared with already published data. The major results show that the geometry of the Korean femurs is significantly different from that of Caucasians: (1) the anteversion angle and the canal flare index are greater by the amount of approximately 8˚ and 0.5, respectively, (2) the shape of the isthmus cross section is more round, and (3) the distance between the teaser trochanter and the proximal border of the isthmus is shelter by about 15 mm. The results suggested that the femoral component suitable for Asians should be different from the currently-used components designed and manufactured mostly by European or American companies. 30537 T00401030537 ^x It is well known that nonlinear propagation characteristics of the wave in the tissue may give very useful information for the medical diagnoisis. In this paper, a new method to detect nonlinear propagation characteristics of the internal vibration in the tissue for the low frequency mechanical vibration by using bispectral analysis is proposed. In the method, low frequency vibration of f0( = 100Hz) is applied on the surface of the object, and the waveform of the internal vibration x (t) is measured from Doppler frequency modulation of silmultaneously transmitted probing ultrasonic waves. Then, the bispectra of the signal x (t) at the frequencies (f0, f0) and (f0, 2f0) are calculated to estimate the nonlinear propagation characteristics as their magnitude ratio, w here since bispectrum is free from the gaussian additive noise we can get the value with high S/N. Basic experimental system is constructed by using 3.0 MHz probing ultrasonic waves and the several experiments are carried out for some phantoms. Results show the superiority of the proposed method to the conventional method using power spectrum and also its usefulness for the tissue characterization. 30541 T00401030541 ^x This paper describes the implementation of a computerized radial pulse diagnosis by aids of a clinical expert. On this base, we composed of the radial pulse diagnosis system in korean traditional medicine. The system composed of a radial pulse wave detection system and a radial pulse diagnosis system. With a detection system, we detected Inyoung and Cheongu radial pulse wave and processed it. Then, we have got the characteristic parameters of radial pulse wave and also quantified that according to the method of Inyoung-Cheongu Comparison Radial Pulse Diagnosis. We defined the jugement standard of radial pulse diagnosis system and then we confirmed the possibility for realization of automatic radial pulse diagnosis in korean traditional medicine. 30545 T00401030545 ^x Microspheres are expected to be applied to biomedical areas such as solid-phase immunoassays, drug delivery systems, immunomagnetic cell separation. To synthesize microspheres for biomedical application, "two stage shot growth method" was developed. The uniformity ratio of synthesized microspheres was always smaller than 1.05. And the surface charge density (or the number of ionizable functional groups) of the microspheres synthesized by "two stage shot growth method" was 6~13 times higher than that of the microspheres synthesized by conventional seeded batch copolymerization. As a previous step for biomedical application, adsorption experiments of bovine albumin on microspheres were carried out under various conditions. The maximum adsorbed amount was obtained in the neighborhood of pH 4.5. Isoelectric point of bovine albumin is pH 5.0, so experimental result shows that it shifted to acid area. The adsorption isotherm was obtained, the plateau region was always reached at 2.Og/L (bulk concentration of bovine albumin).The effect of the kind and the amount of surface functional group was also examined. 30575 T00401030575 ^x A medical image workstation was developed using multimedia technique. The system based on PC-486DX was designed to acquire medical images produced by medical imaging instruments and related audio information, that is, doctors' reporting results. Input information was processed and analyzed, then the results were presented in the form of graph and animation. All the informations of the system were hierarchically related with the image as the apex. Processing and analysis algorithms were implemented so that the diagnostic accuracy could be improved. The diagnosed information can be transferred for patient diagnosis through LAN(local area network). 30592 T00401030592 ^x In the conventional infrared imaging system, complex infrared lens systems are usually used for directing collimated narrow infrared beams into the high speed 2-dimensional optic scanner. In this paper, a simple reflective infrared optic system with a 2-dimensional optic scanner is proposed for the realization of medical infrared thermography system. It has been experimentally proven that the intfrared thermography system composed of the proposed optic system has the temperature resolution of 0.1˚c under the spatial resolution of lmrad, the image matrix size of 256 X 240, and tile imaging time of 4 seconds. 30593 T00401030593 ^x In this paper, MIIS (Medical Image Information System) has been designed and implemented using INGRES RDBMS, which is based on a client/server architecture. The implemented system allows users to register and retrieve patient information, medical images and diagnostic reports. It also provides the function to display these information on workstation windows simultaneously by using the designed menu-driven graphic user interface. The medical image compression/decompression techniques are implemented and integrated into the medical image database system for the efficient data storage and the fast access through the network. 30594 T00401030594 ^x In this paper, computerized BEAM was implemented for the space domain analysis of EEG. Trans-formation from temporal summation to two-dimensional mappings is formed by 4 nearest point inter-polaton method. Methods of representation of BEAM are two. One is dot density method which classify brain electrical potential 9 levels by dot density of gray levels and the other is colour method which classify brain electrical 12 levels by red-green colours. In this BEAM, instantaneous change and average energy distribution over any arbitrary time interval of brain electrical activity could be observed and analyzed easily. In the frequency domain, the distribution of energy spectrum of a special band can easily be distinguished normality and abnormality. 30608 T00401030608 ^x Laboratory information system (LIS) is a key tool to manage laboratory data in clinical pathology. Our department has developed an information system for routine hematology using down-sized computer system. We have used an IBM 486 compatible PC with 16MB main memory, 210 MB hard disk drive, 9 RS-232C port and 24 pin dot printer. The operating system and database management system were SCO UNIX and SCO foxbase, respectively. For program development, we used Xbase language provided by SCO foxbase. The C language was used for interface purpose. To make the system use friendly, pull-down menu was used. The system connected to our hospital information system via application program interface (API), so the information related to patient and request details is automatically transmitted to our computer. Our system interfaced with fwd complete blood count analyzers(Sysmex NE-8000 and Coulter STKS) for unidirectional data tansmission from analyzer to computer. The authors suggests that this system based on down-sized computer could provide a progressive approach to total LIS based on local area network, and the implemented system could serve as a model for other hospital's LIS for routine hematology. 30609 T00401030609 ^x To develop an artificial bone substitute that is gradually degraded and replaced by the regenerated natural bone, the authors designed a composite that is consisted of calcium phosphate and collagen. To use as the structural matrix of the composite, collagen was purified from human umbilical cord. The obtained collagen was treated by pepsin to remove telopeptides, and finally, the immune-free atelocollagen was produced: The cross linked atelocollagen was highly resistant to the collagenase induced collagenolysis. The cross linked collagen demonstrated an improved tensile strength. 30618 T00401030618 ^x This paper is a study on the design of adptive filter for QRS complex detection. We propose a simple adaptive algorithm to increase capability of noise cancelation in QRS complex detection with two stage adaptive filter. At the first stage, background noise is removed and at the next stage, only spectrum of QRS complex components is passed. Two adaptive filters can afford to keep track of the changes of both noise and QRS complex. Each adaptive filter consists of prediction error filter and FIR filter The impulse response of FIR filter uses coefficients of prediction error filter. The detection rates for 105 and 108 of MIT/BIH data base were 99.3% and 97.4% respectively. 30619 T00401030619 ^x To develop an artificial bone substitute that is gradually degraded and replaced by the regenerated natural bone, the authors designed and produced a composite that is consisted of calcium phosphate and collagen. Human umbilical cord origin pepsin treated type I atelocollagen was used as the structural matrix, by which sintered or non-sintered carbonate apatite was encapsulated to form an inorganic-organic composite. With cross linking atelocollagen by UV ray irradiation, the resistance to both compressive and tensile strength was increased. Collagen degradation by the collagenase induced collagenolysis was also decreased. 30620 T00401030620 ^x We have developed a monoleaflet polymer valve as an inexpensive and viable alternative, especially for short-term use in the ventricular assist device or total artificial heart. The frame and leaflet of the polymer valve were made from polyurethane, To evaluate the hemodynamic performance of the polymer valve a comparative study of flow dynamics past a polymer valve and a St. Jude Medical prosthetic valve under physiological pulsatile flow conditions in vitro was made. Comparisons between the valves were made on the transvalvular pressure drop, regurgitation volume and maximum valve opening area. The polymer valve showed smaller regurgitation volume and transvalvular pressure drop compared to the mechanical valve at higher heart rate. The results showed that the functional characteristics of the polymer valve compared favorably with those of the mechanical valve at higher heart rate. 30621 T00401030621 ^x Explosive evaporative removal process of biological tissue by absorption of a CW laser has been simulated by using gelatin and a multimode Nd:YAG laser. Because the point of maximun temperature of laser-irradiated gelatin exists below the surface due to surface cooling, evaporation at the boiling temperature is made explosively from below the surface. The important parameters of this process are the conduction loss to laser power absorption (defined as the conduction-to-laser power parameter, Nk), the convection heat transfer at the surface to conduction loss (defined as Bi), dimensionless extinction coefficient (defined as Br.), and dimensionless irradiation time (defined as Fo). Dependence of Fo on Nk and Bi has been observed by experiment, and the results have been compared with the numerical results obtained by solving a 2-dimensional conduction equation. Fo and explosion depth (from the surface to the point of maximun temperature) are increased when Nk and Bi are increased.To find out the minimum laser power for explosive evaporative removal process, steady state analysis has been also made. The limit of Nk to induce evaporative removal, which is proportional to the inverse of the laser power, has been obtained. 30622 T00401030622 ^x N1 and N2 gross neural action potentials were measured from the round window of the guinea pig cochlea at the onset of the acoustic stimuli. N1-N2 audiograms were made by means of regulating stimulant intensities in order to produce constant N1-N2 potentials as criteria for different input tone pip frequencies. The lowest threshold was measured with an input tone pip I5 dB SPL in intensity and 12 KHz in frequency when the animal was in normal physiological condition. The procedure of experimental measurements is explained in detail. This experimental approach is very useful for the investigation of the Cochlear function. Both noN1inear and active functions of the Cochlea can be monitored by N1-N2 audiograms. 30623 T00401030623 ^x In electrical impedance tomography(EIT), we use boundary current and voltage measurements toprovide the information about the cross-sectional distribution of electrical impedance or resistivity. One of the major problems in EIT has been the inaccessibility of internal voltage or current data in finding the internal impedance values. We propose a new image reconstruction method using internal current density data measured by NMR. We obtained a two-dimensional current density distribution within a phantom by processing the real and imaginary MR images from a 4.77 NMR machine. We implemented a resistivity mage reconstruction algorithm using the finite element method and sensitivity matrix. We presented computer simulation results of the mage reconstruction algorithm and furture direction of the research. 30624 T00401030624 ^x A new method of digital image analysis technique for discrimination of cancer cell was presented in this paper. The object image was the Thyroid eland cells image that was diagnosed as normal and abnormal (two types of abnormal: follicular neoplastic cell, and papillary neoplastic cell), respectively. By using the proposed region segmentation algorithm, the cells were segmented into nucleus. The 16 feature parameters were used to calculate the features of each nucleus. A9 a consequence of using dominant feature parameters method proposed in this paper, discrimination rate of 91.11% was obtained for Thyroid Gland cells. 30625 T00401030625 ^x An electrical stimulator was designed to induce locomotion for paraplegic patients caused by central nervous system injury. Optimal stimulus parameters, which can minimize muscle fatigue and can achieve effective muscle contraction were determined in slow and fast muscles in Sprague-Dawley rats. Stimulus patterns of our stimulator were designed to simulate electromyographic activity monitored during locomotion of normal subjects. Muscle types of the lower extremity were classified according to their mechanical property of contraction, which are slow muscle (msoleus m.) and fast muscle (medial gastrocneminus m., rectus femoris m., vastus lateralis m.). Optimal parameters of electrical stimulation for slow muscles were 20 Hz, 0.2 ms square pulse. For fast muscle, 40 Hz, 0.3 ms square pulse was optimal to produce repeated contraction. Higher stimulus intensity was required when synergistic muscles were stimulated simultaneously than when they were stimulated individually. Electrical stimulation for each muscle was designed to generate bipedal locomotion, so that individual muscles alternate contraction and relaxation to simulate stance and swing phases. Portable electrical stimulator with 16 channels built in microprocessor was constructed and applied to paraplegic patients due to lumbar cord injury. The electrical stimulator restored partially gait function in paraplegic patients. 30626 T00401030626 ^x Two-Dimensional modelling of the Cochlear biomechanics is presented in this paper. The Laplace partial differential equation which represents the fluid mechanics of the Cochlea has been transformed into two-dimensional electrical transmission line. The procedure of this transformation is explained in detail. The comparison between one and two dimensional models is also presented. This electrical modelling of the basilar membrane (BM) is clearly useful for the next approach to the further. Development of active elements which are essential in the producing of the sharp tuning of the BM. This paper shows that two-dimension model is qualitatively better than one-dimensional model both in amplitude and phase responses of the BM displacement. The present model is only for frequency response. However because the model is electrical, the two-dimensional transmission line model can be extended to time response without any difficult. 30627 T00401030627 ^x A method has been proposed for the fully automatic detection of left ventricular endocardial boundary in 2D short axis echocardiogram using geometric model. The procedure has the following three distinct stages. First, the initial center is estimated by the initial center estimation algorithm which is applied to decimated image. Second, the center estimation algorithm is applied to original image and then best-fit elliptic model estimation is processed. Third, best-fit boundary is detected by the cost function which is based on the best-fit elliptic model. The proposed method shows effective result without manual intervention by a human operator. 30628 T00401030628 ^x The intelligent trajectory control method that controls moving direction and average velocity for a prosthetic arm is proposed by pattern recognition and force estimations using EMG signals. Also, we propose the real time trajectory planning method which generates continuous accelleration paths using 3 stage linear filters to minimize the impact to human body induced by arm motions and to reduce the muscle fatigue. We use combination of MLP and fuzzy filter for pattern recognition to estimate the direction of a muscle and Hogan's method for the force estimation. EMG signals are acquired by using a amputation simulator and 2 dimensional joystick motion. The simulation results of proposed prosthetic arm control system using the EMf signals show that the arm is effectively followed the desired trajectory depended on estimated force and direction of muscle movements. 30638 T00401030638 ^x A new neural network architecture for the recognition of patterns from images is proposed, which is partially based on the results of physiological studies. The proposed network is composed of multi-layers and the nerve cells in each layer are connected by spatial filters which approximate receptive fields in optic nerve fields. In the proposed method, patterns recognition for complicated images is carried out using global features as well as local features such as lines and end-points. A new generating method of matched filers representing global features is proposed in this network. 30659 T00401030659 ^x An implementation scheme of the magnetic nerve stimulator using a switching mode power supply is proposed. By using a switching mode power supply rather than a conventional linear power supply for charging high voltage capacitors, the weight and size of the magnetic nerve stimulator can be considerably reduced. Maximum output voltage of the developed magnetic nerve stimulator using the switching mode power supply is 3, 000 volts and switching time is about 100 msec. Experimental results or human nerve stimulations using the developed stimulator are presented. 30768 T00401030768 ^x In this paper, we describe the design methodology and specifications of the developed module-based bedside monitors for patient monitoring. The bedside monitor consists of a main unit and module cases with various parameter modules. The main unit includes a 12.1" TFT color LCD, a main CPU board, and peripherals such as a module controller, Ethernet LAN card, video card, rotate/push button controller, etc. The main unit can connect at maximum three module cases each of which can accommodate up to 7 parameter modules. They include the modules for electrocardiograph, respiration, invasive blood pressure, noninvasive blood pressure, temperature, and SpO2 with Plethysmograph.SpO2 with Plethysmograph.

The wall shear stress in the vicinity of end-to end anastomoses under steady flow conditions was measured using a flush-mounted hot-film anemometer(FMHFA) probe. The experimental measurements were in good agreement with numerical results except in flow with low Reynolds numbers. The wall shear stress increased proximal to the anastomosis in flow from the Penrose tubing (simulating an artery) to the PTFE: graft. In flow from the PTFE graft to the Penrose tubing, low wall shear stress was observed distal to the anastomosis. Abnormal distributions of wall shear stress in the vicinity of the anastomosis, resulting from the compliance mismatch between the graft and the host artery, might be an important factor of ANFH formation and the graft failure. The present study suggests a correlation between regions of the low wall shear stress and the development of anastomotic neointimal fibrous hyperplasia(ANPH) in end-to-end anastomoses. 30523 T00401030523 ^x Air pressure decay(APD) rate and ultrafiltration rate(UFR) tests were performed on new and saline rinsed dialyzers as well as those roused in patients several times. C-DAK 4000 (Cordis Dow) and CF IS-11 (Baxter Travenol) reused dialyzers obtained from the dialysis clinic were used in the present study. The new dialyzers exhibited a relatively flat APD, whereas saline rinsed and reused dialyzers showed considerable amount of decay. C-DAH dialyzers had a larger APD(11.70${\pm}$1.32mmHg/min)compared to CF dialyzers(4.32${\pm}$0.55mmHg/min)(p<0.05). However, there was no observable difference in the UFR between the two dialyzers. Neither APD nor UFR showed any significant increase with an increasing number of reuses for up to more than 20reuses. A substantial number of failures observed in APD(larger than 20mmHe/min)on the reused dialyzers(2 out of 40 CP and S out 26 C-DAK) were attributed to the Possible damage on the fibers. The CF 15-11 HFDs which failed APD test did not show changes in the UFR compared to normal dialyzers indicating that APD is a more sensitive test than UFR test to evaluate the integrity of the fibers. 30527 T00401030527 ^x For quantitative measurement of reflected light from a clinical diagnostic strip, a prototype old reflectance photometer was designed. The strip loader and cassette were made to obtain more accurate reflectance parameters. The strip was illuminated at 45˚c through optical fiber and the intensity of reflected light was determined at rectanguLat angle using a photodiode. The kubelka-munk coefficient and reflection optical density were determined ar four different wavelengths(500,550,570 and 610nm) for blood glucose strip. For higher concentration than 300mg/41 about glucose, a saturation state of abforbance was observed at 500,550 and 570nm. The correlation between glucose concentration and parameters was the best at 610nm. 30535 T00401030535 ^x Radiation-induced fibrosarcoma tumors were grown on the flanks of C3H mice. The mice were divided into two groups. One group was injected with Photofrin II, intravenously (2.5mg/kg body weight). The other group received no Photofrin II. Mice from both groups were irradialed for approximately 15 minutes at 100,300, or 500 mW/cm2 with the argon (488nm/514.5 nm), dye(628nm) and gold vapor (pulsed 628 nm) laser light. A photosensitizer behaved as an added absorber. Under our experimental conditions, the presence of Photolfrin II increased surface temperature by at least 40% and the temperature rise due to 300 mW/cm2 irradiation exceeded values for hyperthermia. Light and temperature distributions with depth were estimated by a computer model. The model demonstrated the influence of wavelength on the thermal process and proved to be a valuable tool to investigate internal temperature rise. 30536 T00401030536 ^x We investigated the structural geometry of thirty-eight Korean femurs. The purpose of this study is to identify major geometrical differences between Korean femurs 3nd others that we believe belong to Caucasians so that we would be able to get insights into the femoral component design that fits Asians including Koreans. We utilized computerized tomography (CT) images of femurs extracted from cadavers. The CT images were transformed into bitmap data by using a film scanner, and then analyzed by using a commercially available software called Image v.1.0 and a Macintosh IIci computer.The resulting data were compared with already published data. The major results show that the geometry of the Korean femurs is significantly different from that of Caucasians: (1) the anteversion angle and the canal flare index are greater by the amount of approximately 8˚ and 0.5, respectively, (2) the shape of the isthmus cross section is more round, and (3) the distance between the teaser trochanter and the proximal border of the isthmus is shelter by about 15 mm. The results suggested that the femoral component suitable for Asians should be different from the currently-used components designed and manufactured mostly by European or American companies. 30537 T00401030537 ^x It is well known that nonlinear propagation characteristics of the wave in the tissue may give very useful information for the medical diagnoisis. In this paper, a new method to detect nonlinear propagation characteristics of the internal vibration in the tissue for the low frequency mechanical vibration by using bispectral analysis is proposed. In the method, low frequency vibration of f0( = 100Hz) is applied on the surface of the object, and the waveform of the internal vibration x (t) is measured from Doppler frequency modulation of silmultaneously transmitted probing ultrasonic waves. Then, the bispectra of the signal x (t) at the frequencies (f0, f0) and (f0, 2f0) are calculated to estimate the nonlinear propagation characteristics as their magnitude ratio, w here since bispectrum is free from the gaussian additive noise we can get the value with high S/N. Basic experimental system is constructed by using 3.0 MHz probing ultrasonic waves and the several experiments are carried out for some phantoms. Results show the superiority of the proposed method to the conventional method using power spectrum and also its usefulness for the tissue characterization. 30541 T00401030541 ^x This paper describes the implementation of a computerized radial pulse diagnosis by aids of a clinical expert. On this base, we composed of the radial pulse diagnosis system in korean traditional medicine. The system composed of a radial pulse wave detection system and a radial pulse diagnosis system. With a detection system, we detected Inyoung and Cheongu radial pulse wave and processed it. Then, we have got the characteristic parameters of radial pulse wave and also quantified that according to the method of Inyoung-Cheongu Comparison Radial Pulse Diagnosis. We defined the jugement standard of radial pulse diagnosis system and then we confirmed the possibility for realization of automatic radial pulse diagnosis in korean traditional medicine. 30545 T00401030545 ^x Microspheres are expected to be applied to biomedical areas such as solid-phase immunoassays, drug delivery systems, immunomagnetic cell separation. To synthesize microspheres for biomedical application, "two stage shot growth method" was developed. The uniformity ratio of synthesized microspheres was always smaller than 1.05. And the surface charge density (or the number of ionizable functional groups) of the microspheres synthesized by "two stage shot growth method" was 6~13 times higher than that of the microspheres synthesized by conventional seeded batch copolymerization. As a previous step for biomedical application, adsorption experiments of bovine albumin on microspheres were carried out under various conditions. The maximum adsorbed amount was obtained in the neighborhood of pH 4.5. Isoelectric point of bovine albumin is pH 5.0, so experimental result shows that it shifted to acid area. The adsorption isotherm was obtained, the plateau region was always reached at 2.Og/L (bulk concentration of bovine albumin).The effect of the kind and the amount of surface functional group was also examined. 30575 T00401030575 ^x A medical image workstation was developed using multimedia technique. The system based on PC-486DX was designed to acquire medical images produced by medical imaging instruments and related audio information, that is, doctors' reporting results. Input information was processed and analyzed, then the results were presented in the form of graph and animation. All the informations of the system were hierarchically related with the image as the apex. Processing and analysis algorithms were implemented so that the diagnostic accuracy could be improved. The diagnosed information can be transferred for patient diagnosis through LAN(local area network). 30592 T00401030592 ^x In the conventional infrared imaging system, complex infrared lens systems are usually used for directing collimated narrow infrared beams into the high speed 2-dimensional optic scanner. In this paper, a simple reflective infrared optic system with a 2-dimensional optic scanner is proposed for the realization of medical infrared thermography system. It has been experimentally proven that the intfrared thermography system composed of the proposed optic system has the temperature resolution of 0.1˚c under the spatial resolution of lmrad, the image matrix size of 256 X 240, and tile imaging time of 4 seconds. 30593 T00401030593 ^x In this paper, MIIS (Medical Image Information System) has been designed and implemented using INGRES RDBMS, which is based on a client/server architecture. The implemented system allows users to register and retrieve patient information, medical images and diagnostic reports. It also provides the function to display these information on workstation windows simultaneously by using the designed menu-driven graphic user interface. The medical image compression/decompression techniques are implemented and integrated into the medical image database system for the efficient data storage and the fast access through the network. 30594 T00401030594 ^x In this paper, computerized BEAM was implemented for the space domain analysis of EEG. Trans-formation from temporal summation to two-dimensional mappings is formed by 4 nearest point inter-polaton method. Methods of representation of BEAM are two. One is dot density method which classify brain electrical potential 9 levels by dot density of gray levels and the other is colour method which classify brain electrical 12 levels by red-green colours. In this BEAM, instantaneous change and average energy distribution over any arbitrary time interval of brain electrical activity could be observed and analyzed easily. In the frequency domain, the distribution of energy spectrum of a special band can easily be distinguished normality and abnormality. 30608 T00401030608 ^x Laboratory information system (LIS) is a key tool to manage laboratory data in clinical pathology. Our department has developed an information system for routine hematology using down-sized computer system. We have used an IBM 486 compatible PC with 16MB main memory, 210 MB hard disk drive, 9 RS-232C port and 24 pin dot printer. The operating system and database management system were SCO UNIX and SCO foxbase, respectively. For program development, we used Xbase language provided by SCO foxbase. The C language was used for interface purpose. To make the system use friendly, pull-down menu was used. The system connected to our hospital information system via application program interface (API), so the information related to patient and request details is automatically transmitted to our computer. Our system interfaced with fwd complete blood count analyzers(Sysmex NE-8000 and Coulter STKS) for unidirectional data tansmission from analyzer to computer. The authors suggests that this system based on down-sized computer could provide a progressive approach to total LIS based on local area network, and the implemented system could serve as a model for other hospital's LIS for routine hematology. 30609 T00401030609 ^x To develop an artificial bone substitute that is gradually degraded and replaced by the regenerated natural bone, the authors designed a composite that is consisted of calcium phosphate and collagen. To use as the structural matrix of the composite, collagen was purified from human umbilical cord. The obtained collagen was treated by pepsin to remove telopeptides, and finally, the immune-free atelocollagen was produced: The cross linked atelocollagen was highly resistant to the collagenase induced collagenolysis. The cross linked collagen demonstrated an improved tensile strength. 30618 T00401030618 ^x This paper is a study on the design of adptive filter for QRS complex detection. We propose a simple adaptive algorithm to increase capability of noise cancelation in QRS complex detection with two stage adaptive filter. At the first stage, background noise is removed and at the next stage, only spectrum of QRS complex components is passed. Two adaptive filters can afford to keep track of the changes of both noise and QRS complex. Each adaptive filter consists of prediction error filter and FIR filter The impulse response of FIR filter uses coefficients of prediction error filter. The detection rates for 105 and 108 of MIT/BIH data base were 99.3% and 97.4% respectively. 30619 T00401030619 ^x To develop an artificial bone substitute that is gradually degraded and replaced by the regenerated natural bone, the authors designed and produced a composite that is consisted of calcium phosphate and collagen. Human umbilical cord origin pepsin treated type I atelocollagen was used as the structural matrix, by which sintered or non-sintered carbonate apatite was encapsulated to form an inorganic-organic composite. With cross linking atelocollagen by UV ray irradiation, the resistance to both compressive and tensile strength was increased. Collagen degradation by the collagenase induced collagenolysis was also decreased. 30620 T00401030620 ^x We have developed a monoleaflet polymer valve as an inexpensive and viable alternative, especially for short-term use in the ventricular assist device or total artificial heart. The frame and leaflet of the polymer valve were made from polyurethane, To evaluate the hemodynamic performance of the polymer valve a comparative study of flow dynamics past a polymer valve and a St. Jude Medical prosthetic valve under physiological pulsatile flow conditions in vitro was made. Comparisons between the valves were made on the transvalvular pressure drop, regurgitation volume and maximum valve opening area. The polymer valve showed smaller regurgitation volume and transvalvular pressure drop compared to the mechanical valve at higher heart rate. The results showed that the functional characteristics of the polymer valve compared favorably with those of the mechanical valve at higher heart rate. 30621 T00401030621 ^x Explosive evaporative removal process of biological tissue by absorption of a CW laser has been simulated by using gelatin and a multimode Nd:YAG laser. Because the point of maximun temperature of laser-irradiated gelatin exists below the surface due to surface cooling, evaporation at the boiling temperature is made explosively from below the surface. The important parameters of this process are the conduction loss to laser power absorption (defined as the conduction-to-laser power parameter, Nk), the convection heat transfer at the surface to conduction loss (defined as Bi), dimensionless extinction coefficient (defined as Br.), and dimensionless irradiation time (defined as Fo). Dependence of Fo on Nk and Bi has been observed by experiment, and the results have been compared with the numerical results obtained by solving a 2-dimensional conduction equation. Fo and explosion depth (from the surface to the point of maximun temperature) are increased when Nk and Bi are increased.To find out the minimum laser power for explosive evaporative removal process, steady state analysis has been also made. The limit of Nk to induce evaporative removal, which is proportional to the inverse of the laser power, has been obtained. 30622 T00401030622 ^x N1 and N2 gross neural action potentials were measured from the round window of the guinea pig cochlea at the onset of the acoustic stimuli. N1-N2 audiograms were made by means of regulating stimulant intensities in order to produce constant N1-N2 potentials as criteria for different input tone pip frequencies. The lowest threshold was measured with an input tone pip I5 dB SPL in intensity and 12 KHz in frequency when the animal was in normal physiological condition. The procedure of experimental measurements is explained in detail. This experimental approach is very useful for the investigation of the Cochlear function. Both noN1inear and active functions of the Cochlea can be monitored by N1-N2 audiograms. 30623 T00401030623 ^x In electrical impedance tomography(EIT), we use boundary current and voltage measurements toprovide the information about the cross-sectional distribution of electrical impedance or resistivity.

Muscle types of the lower extremity were classified according to their mechanical property of contraction, which are slow muscle (msoleus m.) and fast muscle (medial gastrocneminus m., rectus femoris m., vastus lateralis m.). Optimal parameters of electrical stimulation for slow muscles were 20 Hz, 0.2 ms square pulse. For fast muscle, 40 Hz, 0.3 ms square pulse was optimal to produce repeated contraction. Higher stimulus intensity was required when synergistic muscles were stimulated simultaneously than when they were stimulated individually. Electrical stimulation for each muscle was designed to generate bipedal locomotion, so that individual muscles alternate contraction and relaxation to simulate stance and swing phases. Portable electrical stimulator with 16 channels built in microprocessor was constructed and applied to paraplegic patients due to lumbar cord injury. The electrical stimulator restored partially gait function in paraplegic patients. 30626 T00401030626 ^x Two-Dimensional modelling of the Cochlear biomechanics is presented in this paper.

본 연구는 소비자가 지각하는 유통업체의 위치기반 모바일 쇼핑정보 서비스에 대한 정보의 상황관련성과 정보자극에 대한 PAD 감정변수들(환기, 지배력, 즐거움) 간의 상호 인과관계와 이용의도에 대한 이들의 효과를 실증 연구 하였다. 미국 내 모바일 이용자를 대상으로 무작위 표본추출법에 근거하여 추출되었고, 총 335명의 사용가능한 응답이 수거되었다. 분석결과, 환기와 상황관련성은 즐거움에 정(+)의 영향을 주었으나 지배력은 즐거움에 유의한 영향력을 나타내지 않았다. 즐거움은 이용의도에 정(+)의 영향을 주었다. 본 연구를 통해 위치기반 모바일 서비스에 대한 소비자의 인지적 반응과 감정적 반응을 통합적으로 살펴보았으며, PAD 감정차원간의 체계적인 관계를 규명하였다. 연구결과를 바탕으로 모바일 쇼핑서비스 개발자, 유통업체, 그리고 마케팅 실무자를 위한 시사점을 논의하였으며, 연구의 한계점과 더불어 향후 연구 방향을 제시하였다.
