  • Mixed Venous oxygenation saturation[SvO2 is a variable determined in part by the externally controlled factors and in part by the patient during CPB. I monitored the SvO2 and tested it as a parameter for the regulation of pump output and as a criteria for the need of inotropics after CPB. With the help of SvO2, I increased the pump flow especially during rewarming for more optimal oxygenation of cells. After CPB, the calculated cardiac index was used as an indicator for the need of inotropic support with greater accuracy and without any clinical problems. I conclude that the SvO2 is an easily checkable variable and a good indicator for optimal oxygenation at cell level, and can be used as an objective criteria for the need of postoperative inotropic support.

  • An experimental facility consisting of two 3$\times$4.4$\times$2.8m rooms identical in construction is built. Each room has a control system and storage tank supplying hot water to the radiant floor heating system. The facility enables simultaneous comparison of two different control strategies each implemented in a separate room. The operating performance of three kinds of flow control scheme is tested and compared in this study: (ⅰ) conventional on-off control based on feedback from room air temperature (ⅱ) TPSC(two parameter switching control )(ⅲ) TPOC(two parameter on-off control). Results show that TPSC and TPOC using room air and surface temperature sequentially as feedback signal to control hot water supply is the better temperature regulation scheme than conventional control based on feedback from only room air temperature. They are good candidates for the room with radiant floor heating system under continuous and intermittent heating mode.

  • Neuromedin, a neuropeptide, which is involved in various functions that include contractile activity on smooth muscle, controlling the blood flow and ion transport in the intestine, increased blood pressure and regulation of adrenocortical function. It is involved in the pathophysiology of various immune mediated inflammatory diseases like asthma. In this study, we have performed protein-protein docking analysis of neuromedin U - neuromedin U receptor 1 complex. We have developed homology models of neuromedin U, and selected a reliable model using model validation. The model was docked with the receptor model, to analyse the crucial interactions of the complex. This study could be helpful as a tool in developing novel and potent drugs for the diseases related with neuromedin U receptor 1.

  • GDI(Gasoline Direct Injection( engine technology is well known as a new technology since it can improve fuel consumption and meet future emission regulations. But the GDI has many difficulties to be solved, such as complexity of injection control mode, unburned hydrocarbon, and restricted power. A 2-D shape combustion chamber was adopted to investigate mixture formation and combustion characteristics of GDI engine. Spray and combustion experiments were performed by changing the injection timing. injection pressure an din-cylinder flow in Rapid Compression and Expansion Machine(RCEM).Through the experiments, the detailed characteristics of fuel spray and combustion was analyzed by visualizing the in-cylinder phenomena according to the change of injection condition, and the optimal fuel injection timing and fuel injection pressure were obtained.

  • Pre-foaming that has been used in this study is using to control and guarantee quality, but the optimum mix proportion and regulation are not definite. Therefore, this study investigated properties of foamed concrete according to concentrations of foaming agent to improve usability of foamed concrete. Synthetic foaming agent such as AES(Alkyl Ether Sulfate) and AOS(Alpha Olefin Sulfonate) are used to make foam with 1, 3, and 5% concentrations. We found that the flow of foam concrete increases when foam concentration is high and AES is more flowable than AOS. Density and compressive strength increase when foam concentration is low.

  • High efficiency operation is required for motors of vehicle to increase fuel efficiency due to the regulation of exhaust gas. This paper presents a control method of fuel pressure to increase fuel efficiency and a sensorless control method of BLDC motor to get higher efficiency than conventional brushed DC motor. Initial rotor position of BLDC motor is detected from current value that is occurred by test voltage pulse and rotor is accelerated by defined sequence to enter sensorless operation mode. The algorithm to control flow rate of fuel pump uses PI controller that is control motor speed to maintain the target fuel pressure commanded by ECU.

  • A vehicle fuel economy is one of the most important issues in view of environmental regulation and customer's needs. In order to improve the vehicle fuel economy, great efforts has been carried out on the components bases. However, systematic analysis of vehicle fuel consumption is necessary for the further improvement of vehicle fuel economy. In this paper, a methodology for the breakdown of vehicle fuel consumption was studied and proposed for systematic analysis of the vehicle fuel economy. The energy equation for the vehicle power train was set up for the analysis of the vehicle fuel economy and simplified to be calculated or estimated using the measured data in a vehicle. The amount of fuel that was used in vehicle components under arbitrary driving conditions was quantified.

  • This paper discusses a DC distribution system which has been supplied by external AC systems as well as local microturbine distributed generation system in order to demonstrate an overall solution to power quality issue. Based on the dynamic model of the converter, a design procedure has been presented. In this paper, the power flow control in DC distribution system has been achieved by network converters. A suitable control strategy for these converters has been proposed, too. They have DC voltage droop regulator and novel instantaneous power regulation scheme. Also, a novel control system has been proposed for MT converter. Several case studies have been studied and the simulation results show that DC distribution system including microturbine unit can provide the premium power quality using proposed methods.
