Projection-type Fast Spin Echo (PFSE) imaging has robustness against motion artifacts due to patient motion during magnetic resonance imaging data acquisition, or reduce flow artifacts. However, it has difficulty in controlling T2 contrast. In this paper, T2 contrast in the PFSE method is analyzed. The contrasts in FSE and PFSE method are compared by computer simulation and experiments with volunteers.

A numerical investigation is made of unsteady double-diffusive convection of a Boussinesq fluid in a rectangular cavity subject to time-periodic thermal excitations. The fluid is initially stratified between the top endwall of low solute concentration and the bottom endwall of high solute concentration. A time-dependent heat flux varying in a square wave fashion, is applied on one sidewall to induce buoyant convection. The influences of the imposed periodicity on double-diffusive convection are examined. A special concern is on the occurrence of resonance that the fluctuations of flow and attendant heat and mass transfers are mostly amplified at certain eigenmodes of the fluid system. Numerical solutions illustrate that resonant convection results in a conspicuous enhancement of time-mean mass transfer rate.

In developing the high density memory device, the etching of fine pattern is becoming increasingly important. Therefore, definition of ultra fine line and space pattern and minimization of damage and contamination are essential process. Also, the high density plasma in low operating pressure is necessary. The candidates of high density plasma sources are electron cyclotron resonance plasma, helicon wave plasma, helical resonator, and inductively coupled plasma. In this study, planar type magnetized inductively coupled plasma etcher has been built. The density and temperature of Ar plasma are measured as a function of rf power, flow rate, external magnetic field, and pressure. The oxide etch rate and selectivity to polysilicon are measured as the above mentioned conditions and self-bias voltage.

Recent researches have reported that the superposition of ultrasonic vibrations in metal forming provides beneficial effects such as the reduction of forming load, flow stress and interfacial friction which improves the surface quality of end products. This paper presents experimental investigations on the effects of ultrasonic vibrations in upsetting tests of aluminum. The ultrasonic exciting system consists of piezoelectric transducer and resonator was designed and constructed to superimpose high frequency oscillation on the forming tools. Ultrasonic vibration-assisted upsetting tests were performed for three vibration modes five amplitudes, and the results were compared with those of conventional upsetting tests. The results showed that the superimposition of ultrasonic vibration reduces the upsetting load, and the load reduction is only dependent on the amplitude of the applied vibration regardless of deformation histories and vibration modes.

Polystyrene was degraded by using a vibrating ball mill. The viscosities and molecular weights of the degraded products were measured, and the decrease of viscosity $[\eta}$ with ${\dot{s}}$ (rate of shear) observed for the degraded products were analyzed by applying the Ree-Eyring equation for viscous flow. The variation of the parameters $x_2$/{\alhpa}_2,{\beta}_2$ and $x_1{\beta}_1/{\alpha}_1$ in the equation were explained by the fracture of polymer molecules by mechanical force. The electron paramagnetic resonance spectrum of the degraded sample was taken, and it was confirmed that free radicals were produced by the chain-scission of polystyrene.

An experiment, in the cases that satisfies deep water condition, has been performed to observe the strongly nonlinear sloshing flow in a rectangular tank. A variety of parametric study on oscillating frequency and amplitude was conducted and we found that two types of wave motions, sloshing wave and Faraday wave, could be persisting simultaneously even in horizontal sloshing problem. Moreover, it is observed both of symmetric and skewed symmetric Faraday wave exist. A comprehensive explanation is given to the generation mechanism of those waves and how to interact among them.

Vibration intensity has been used to localize vibration source of a vibrating system. Not only that, vibration intensity has also been used for structural diagnostic in identifying crack and mounted stiffeners. To clearly identify the location of vibration source and understand the changes of energy transmission path, clear flow visualization is required. Most of previous works used vectors to indicate the magnitude and direction of emerging vibration energy and transmission paths. However, due to the large surface area of a plate like-structure, clear transmission paths cannot be achieved using vector visualization. This becomes an issue when detail vector flow at all locations of the whole plate surface is required. In this study, streamlines visualization is used to clearly indicate the power flow transmission path at all plate surface. By using streamlines representation, not only clear transmission paths are obtained, but also improves the vector visualization which helps us to understand the changes of the energy flow especially for stiffened plates. In this study, vibration intensity computation is firstly compared to previous work to validate the vibration intensity computation. To clearly show the power flow transmission paths, streamlines representation is shown. This representation overcomes the unclear vector direction especially for stiffened plates. Different pattern of energy transmission path can be observed using streamlines representation for stiffened and unstiffened plate. The complex streamlines pattern can also be observed at high resonance frequencies which is unclear by using vector representation.

It is well known that an Oscillating Water Column Wave Energy Converter (OWC-WEC) is one of the most efficient wave absorber equipment. This device transforms the vertical motion of water column in the air chamber into the air flow velocity and produces electricity from the driving force of turbine as represented by the Wells turbine. Therefore, in order to obtain high electric energy, it is necessary to amplify the water surface vibration by inducing resonance of the piston mode in the water surface fluctuation in the air chamber. In this study, a new type of OWC-WEC with a seawater channel is used, and the wave deformation by the structure, water surface fluctuation in the air chamber, air outflow velocity from the nozzle and seawater flow velocity in the seawater channel are evaluated by numerical analysis in detail. The numerical analysis model uses open CFD code OLAFLOW model based on multi-phase analysis technique of Navier-Stokes solver. To validate model, numerical results and existing experimental results are compared and discussed. It is revealed within the scope of this study that the air flow velocity at nozzle increases as the Ursell number becomes larger, and the air velocity that flows out from the inside of the air chamber is larger than the velocity of incoming air into the air chamber.

The similarity in internal flow of solid and hybrid rocket suggests that hybrid rocket combustion can be susceptible to instability due to vortex sheddings and their interaction. This study focuses on the evolution of interaction of vortex generated in pre-chamber with other types of vortex in the combustor and the change of combustion characteristics. Baseline and other results tested with disks show that there are five different frequency bands appeared in spectral domain. These include a frequency with thermal lag of solid fuel, vortex shedding due to obstacles such as forward, backward facing step and wall vortices near surface. The comparison of frequency behavior in the cases with disk 1 and 3 reveals that vortex shedding generated in pre-chamber can interact with other types of vortex shedding at a certain condition. The frequency of Helmholtz mode is one of candidates resulting to a resonance when it was excited by other types of oscillation even if this mode was not discernable in baseline test. This selective mechanism of resonance may explain the reason why non-linear combustion instability occurs in hybrid rocket combustion.

Vertebrobasilar insuffciency(VBI) is also refered to as vertebrobasilar transient ischemic attack(V-B TIA). Vertebrobasilar insufficiency is often undiagnosed or misdiagnosed due to complexity of the symptoms. Transcranial doppler(TCD) can be used to possible to record the blood flow velocities in the cerebral arteries through the intact cranium. Transcranial doppler and magnetic resonance angiography(MRA) are both noninvasive techniques that can be used in vertebrobasilar insufficiency, but transcranial doppler is more sensitive with respect to evaluating stenotic lesion of the arteries than magnetic resonance angiographv. Diagnostic values of transcranial doppler were assessed in patients with vertebrobasilar insufficiency. A case of vertebrobasilar insufficiency is here reported. A 62-year-old man with dizzness, nausea and tremor because of vertebrobasilar insufficiency was admitted at Wonkwang Oriental Medicine Hospital. He was treated with the herbal medicine Chunmagudung-um and with acupunture. Results showed improvement of symptoms and favorable transcranial doppler readings. The process used in this successful treatment is here described.
