This study is to investigate cardiotonic effect of acupuncture on heart rate variability(HRV) analyzed by a nonlinear way(DFA, Detrended Fluctuation Analysis). It was designed as a randomized, single-blind, waiting list-controlled, cross-over study. We assessed heart rate and R-R intervals in Circadian electrocardiography with a Holter monitoring device for twelve hospitalized participants. The compatible analytical program, Zymed, was used for generating the signals of R-R intervals from 24 hour-ECG. In DFA analysis, we produced DFA alpha 1, alpha 2 parameters according to the process of Cygwin module of Linux server. We tested if there was any difference between HRV parameters using SPSS, a statistical package. There was no difference between acupuncture and no treatment group in DFA alpha 2 parameter {95% Confidence Interval (-)0.058 - 0.037, P = .565}. Two group all showed large intra-individual variations. Consequently, acupuncture treatment did not modulate the complexity of HRV in a DFA analysis. This study can be a rationale for acupuncture's properties on cardiovascular and autonomic systems.

Reliability analysis of structures based on fracture mechanics requires knowledge on statistical characteristics of the parameter C and m in the fatigue crack growth law, $da/dN=C({\Delta}K)^m$. The purpose of the present study is to investigate if it is possible to predict fatigue crack growth rate by only the fluctuation of the parameter C. In this study, Paris-Erdogan law is adopted, where the author treat the parameter C as random and m as constant. The fluctuation of crack growth rate is assumed only due to the parameter C. The growth resistance coefficient of material to fatigue crack growth (Z=1/C) was treated as a spatial stochastic process, which varies randomly on the crack path. The theoretical crack growth rates at various stress intensity factor range are discussed. Constant ${\Delta}K$ fatigue crack growth tests were performed on the structural steel, SM45C. The experimental data were analyzed to determine the autocorrelation function and Weibull distributions of the fatigue crack growth resistance. And also, the effect of the parameter m of Paris' law due to variation of fatigue crack growth resistance was discussed.

최근 국제자원시장의 불안정성으로 인해 카스피해 연안 국가에 대한 관심이 고조되고 있다. 이들 국가들은 자원수출 중심으로 성장하고 있으며, 특히 카자흐스탄은 최근 10년간 높은 경제성장률을 달성하였다. 그러나 자원에 대한 수출의존도가 높은 경제구조를 가진 국가들의 경우 경제 전반이 국제자원 시세변동에 따라 크게 영향을 받을 수 있으며, 지속적인 경제성장을 저해하는 네덜란드 병에 노출될 수 있다. 최근 카자흐스탄은 우리나라와 교역 및 투자가 증가하는 등 새로운 에너지 공급처로서 대두되었다. 따라서 카자흐스탄의 경제변화는 우리나라에 있어 주요 이슈라고 할 수 있다. 이 연구에서는 카자흐스탄 경제에 네덜란드 병의 원인을 파악하기 위해 Balasa-Samuelson모형을 수정하여 1999년 1월부터 2008년 12월까지를 표본 대상 기간 동안 국제유가와 이자율, 카자흐스탄 실질환율 간의 관계를 분석하였다. 실증분석 결과 전체 표본 기간 내 국제유가와 이자율은 실질환율과 장기적 균형관계를 보이는 것으로 나타났다. 이 기간 내 국제유가와 이자율은 실질환율에 각각 부(-)의 영향을 미치는 것으로 나타나 카자흐스탄은 네덜란드 병에 노출되어 있음을 확인하였다.

최근의 수자원공학 분야는 4차산업혁명과 더불어 비약적으로 발전된 딥러닝 기술을 활용한 시계열 수위 및 유량의 예측에 대한 관심이 높아지고 있다. 또한 시계열 자료의 예측이 가능한 LSTM 모형과 GRU 모형을 활용하여 수위 및 유량 예측을 수행하고 있지만 시간 변동성이 매우 큰 하천에서의 유량 예측 정확도는 수위 예측 정확도에 비해 낮게 예측되는 경향이 있다. 본 연구에서는 유량변동이 크고 하구에서의 조석의 영향이 거의 없는 한강의 팔당대교 관측소를 선택하였다. 또한, LSTM 모형과 GRU 모형의 입력 및 예측 자료로 활용될 유량변동이 큰 시계열 자료를 선택하였고 총 자료의 길이는 비교적 짧은 2년 7개월의 수위 자료 및 유량 자료를 수집하였다. 시간변동성이 큰 시계열 수위를 2개의 모형에서 학습할 경우, 2개의 모형 모두에서 예측되는 수위 결과는 관측 수위와 비교하여 적정한 정확도가 확보되었으나 변동성이 큰 유량 자료를 2개의 모형에서 직접 학습시킬 경우, 예측되는 유량 자료의 정확도는 악화되었다. 따라서, 본 연구에서는 급변하는 유량을 정확히 예측하기 위하여 2개 모형으로 예측된 수위 자료를 수위-유량관계곡선의 입력자료로 활용하여 유량의 예측 정확도를 크게 향상시킬 수 있었다. 마지막으로 본 연구성과는 수문자료의 별도 가공없이 관측 길이가 상대적으로 충분히 길지 않고 유출량이 급변하는 도시하천에서의 홍수예경보 자료로 충분히 활용할 수 있을 것으로 기대된다.

In this study, according to the reference setting based on the runoff video of 9:00 where the highest water level of 3.94 m has been recorded during the runoff of Cheon-mi Stream in Jeju Island by the attack of Typhoon no. 16 Sanba on September $17^{th}$, 2012, the error rate of long-distance and short-distance velocimetry and real-distance change rate by input error have been calculated and the input range value of reference point by stream has been suggested. In the reference setting process, if a long-distance reference point input error occurs, the real-distance change rate of 0.35 m in the x-axis direction and 1.35 m in y-axis direction is incurred by the subtle input error of 2~11 pixels, and if a short-distance reference point input error occurs, the real-distance change rate of 0.02 m in the x-axis direction and 0.81 m in y-axis direction is incurred by the subtle input error of 1~11 pixels. According to the long-distance reference point setting variable, the velocity error rate showed the range of fluctuation of at least 14.36% to at most 76.06%, and when calculating flux, it showed a great range of fluctuation of at least 20.48% to at most 78.81%.

This paper describes the flow measurements inside the blade passage of an axial flow fan by using a rotating hot-wire probe sensor from a relative flame of reference fixed to the rotor blades. The validity of fan rotor designed by a streamline curvature equation was performed by the measurement of the three-dimensional flow upstream and downstream of the fan rotor using a 5-hole pitot tube. The vortical flow structure near the rotor tip can be clearly observed by the measurements of a relative velocity and its fluctuation on quasi-orthogonal planes to a tip leakage vortex. Larger vortical flow, which results in higher blockage in the main flow, is formed according to decrease a flow rate. The vortical flow spreads out to the 30 percent span from the rotor tip at near stall condition. In the design operating condition, the tip leakage vortex is moved downstream while the center of the vortex keeps constant in the spanwise direction. Detailed characteristics of a velocity fluctuation with relation to the vortex were also analyzed.

The purpose of this paper is to obtain the fundamental data on the catch fluctuation in the pound set net according to the tide age from the catch recorded from the year 1997 to 2004 in the coastal waters of Guideok, Jeju. Total catch by the pound set net had a little connection with the tide age. During increasing tide, total catch were reduced slightly from the neap tide to the high tide while there seemed to be a little sign of rise in the total catch until decreasing tide. But in the relation between the catches and the tide age, the level of the correlation coefficient chosen at $p{\le}0.05$ was not significant. Therefore, the catch of the pound set net seemed not to be influenced by the tide age. In addition, CPUE at the high tide was higher than that at the neap tide. When the catch per operating frequency was graded in the order under 50 kg, 50-100 kg and 100-200 kg, the frequency rate by the pound set net was 38%, 19% and 19%, respectively.

The combustion instability of turbulent flames is the most important problem of the gas turbine combustor. Thus improved understanding of mechanisms of combustion instability is necessary for the design and operation of gas turbine combustors. In this study, the cause of the combustion instability in a rearward-step dump combustor was investigated with respect to the fuel flow modulation; choked fuel flow, unchoked fuel flow and fully premixed mixture flow. We observed various types of combustion instabilities with respect to the change of equivalence ratio, fuel flow conditions and fuel injection location. Particularly in the unchoked fuel flow condition, it was found that the oscillation time of combustion instability is strongly related to the convection time of the fuel and that the pressure fluctuation in a lab-scale combustor is highly related to the vortex and the equivalence ratio fluctuations due to fuel flow modulation and unmixedness of the fuel and air.

Titanium alloy has been widely used in the aerospace industry because of its high strength and good corrosion resistance. During cutting, the low thermal conductivity and high chemical reactivity of titanium generate a high cutting temperature and accelerates tool wear. To improve cutting tool life, cryogenic machining by using a liquid nitrogen (LN2) jet is suggested. In cryogenic jet cooling, evaporation of LN2 in the tank and transfer tube could cause pressure fluctuation and change the cooling rate. In this work, cooling uniformity is investigated in terms of liquid nitrogen jet pressure in cryogenic jet cooling during titanium alloy turning. Fluctuation of jet spraying pressure causes tool temperature to fluctuate. It is possible to suppress the fluctuation of the jet pressure and improve cooling by using a phase separator. Measuring tool temperature shows that consistent LN2 jet pressure improves cryogenic cooling uniformity.

The purpose of this study is to offer acoustical database of warp knitted fabrics by investigating frictional sound properties and physiological responses according to structural parameters such as construction, lap form, and direction of mutual guide bar movement. Fabric sounds of seven warp knitted fabrics are recorded, and Zwicker's psychoacoustic param­eters - loudness(Z), sharpness(Z), roughness(Z), and fluctuation strength(Z) - are calculated. Also, physiological responses evoked by frictional sounds of warp knitted fabrics are measured such as electroencephalogram (EEG), the ratio of high fre­quency to low frequency (HF/LF), respiration rate (RESP), skin conductance level (SCL), and photoplethysmograph (PPG). In case of constructions, frictional sound of sharkskin having higher loudness(Z) and fluctuation strength(Z) increases RESP. By lap form, open lap has louder and larger fluctuating sound than closed lap, but there aren't significant difference of physi­ological responses between open lap and closed lap. In direction of mutual guide bar movement, parallel direction evokes bigger changes of beta wave than counter direction because of its loud, rough, and fluctuating sound. Fluctuation strength(Z) and roughness(Z) are defined as important factors for predicting physiological responses in construction and mutual guide bar movement, respectively.
