  • In standard teletherapy, a treatment plan is generated with the aid of a treatment planning system, but it is common to perform an independent monitor unit verification calculation (MUVC). In exact analogy, we propose and demonstrate that a simple and accurate MUVC in Intensity Modulated Radiotherapy (IMRT) is possible. We introduce a concept of Modified Clarkson Integration (MCI). In MCI, we exploit the rotational symmetry of scattering to simplify the dose calculation. For dose calculation along a central axis (CAX), we first replace the incident IMRT fluence by an azimuthally averaged fluence. Second, the Clarkson Integration is carried over annular sectors instead of over pie sectors. We wrote a computer code, implementing the MCI technique, in order to perform a MUVC for IMRT purposes. We applied the code to IMRT plans generated by CORVUS. The input to the code consists of CORVUS plan data (e.g., DMLC files, jaw settings, MU for each IMRT field, depth to isocenter for each IMRT field), and the output is dose contribution by individual IMRT field to the isocenter. The code uses measured beam data for Sc, Sp, TPR, (D/Mu)$\_$ref/ and includes effects from MLC transmission, and radiation field offset. On a 266 MHZ desktop computer, the code takes less than 15 sec to calculate a dose. The doses calculated with MCI algorithm agreed within +/- 3% with the doses calculated by CORVUS, which uses a 1cm x 1cm pencil beam in dose calculation. In the present version of MCI, skin contour variations and inhomogeneities were neglected.

  • 본 논문에서는 DS-CDMA 신호들의 코드 타이밍을 획득하기 위하여 안테나 어레이의 이용에 관한 내용을 다루고자 한다. 다중 사용자 환경의 시변 Rayleigh 페이딩 채널 하에서 다중의 고정 빔들을 기존의 MUSIC 동기 획득 방법에 적용함으로서 동기 획득 확률들을 평가한다. 전 방위각 영역을 공간 필터링을 위해서 안테나의 수만큼 나누어서 각각의 고정 빔이 각 방위각 구역을 맡도록 한다. 간섭 신호 억제 능력을 가진 고정 빔들은 부가적인 자유도를 제공한다. 그리하여 단 하나의 안테나를 사용하는 기존의 MUSIC 알고리즘보다 더 많은 사용자들의 동기 획득을 위해서 다중 빔 기반의 MUSIC 추정기를 사용할 수 있도록 한다. 이러한 다중 빔 기반의 부분공간 접근 방법을 다중 사용자 시나리오에서 단 하나의 안테나를 사용하는 MUSIC 기법의 성능을 상당히 개선할 수 있음을 검증하기 위해서 시뮬레이션을 수행한다.

  • 최근 만성질환을 앓고 있는 고령자가 늘어나고 교통사고와 같은 재난이 증대됨에 따라 이와 같은 응급상황에 응급구조사와 의사들이 효율적으로 대응할 필요성이 대두되고 있다. 특히, 만성질환과 치매를 앓고 있던 고령자에게 뇌경색이나 교통사고와 같은 응급상황이 발생하게 되면, 기본적인 자신의 인적정보과 병력을 전달하지 못하여 구조대의 응급처치가 늦어지고 의료정보의 부족으로 병원에서의 효율적인 응급치료도 어렵게 된다. 본 논문에서는 QR 코드를 이용하여 응급 구조사에게는 응급치료에 필요한 최소한의 개인정보와 병력을 전달하고 병원의 응급실 의사에게는 QR 코드와 지문인식을 통해 그동안의 병력 및 치료데이터를 전달함으로써 효율적인 응급처치 및 응급치료가 가능하도록 하였다. 특히 스마트폰의 QR 코드와 개인의 지문을 동시에 활용함으로써 개인정보는 보호하고 권한을 부여받은 의사들만이 병적기록을 확인할 수 있도록 하여 의료정보의 프라이버시 및 보안을 강화했다.

  • 본 연구는 기업의 윤리정책이 윤리적 의사결정에 행위에 미치는 영향에서 개인특성요인의 조절효과를 분석하는데 초점을 맞추었다. 연구의 대상은 서울 및 수도권에 근무하는 정규직 근로자(n=211)을 대상으로 하였으며, 연구모형을 설정하고 이를 통계적 절차에 의하여 검정하였다. 통계분석에는 신뢰도와 타당도 분석, 상관분석, 분산분석 및 조절회귀분석(MRA)을 실시하였다. 본 연구의 분석결과로 첫째, 조직의 윤리강령이 있고 이를 실행하는 강도가 높을수록, 기업이 추구하는 가치가 높다고 구성원들이 인지하는 정도가 높을수록 윤리적 의사결정에 영향을 미치는 것으로 나타났다. 즉, 기업외적 윤리적 의사결정의 평가 요인보다 내부적 요인에 의해 직접적인 영향을 받고 있음을 것을 시사하며, 기업의 의사결정이 투명하게 이루어지고 이를 조직구성원들에게 인지토록 하는 것이 필요하다. 둘째, 본 연구에서 설정한 조직의 장기비전에 대하여 높은 인지와 내재적인 통제의 위치에 있는 구성원들이 기업의 윤리적 의사결정에 있어 독립변수의 역할을 수행할 뿐만 아니라 조절변수로서의 역할을 수행하고 있음을 알 수 있다. 또한 통제변수로 사용한 많은 변수간의 윤리적 의사결정수준의 차이가 있음을 알 수 있는데 이는 개인특성요인과 관련된 것으로 향후 높은 윤리적 의사결정의 실행을 위해서는 통제변수의 특성을 고려한 차별화된 교육의 실시가 요구된다.

  • Recently, a semi-active shock absorber has been taking interest because of its low cost and simple structure than the active one. CFD analysis has been conducted to investigate the continuous and variable damping characteristics of the semi-active shock absorber. Also, the flow resistance characteristics of a spool valve has been examined to identify individual parameters(namely, exponent and discharge coefficient) of pressure-flow rate relation needed for the accurate valve modeling. The flow field in the damping valve was simulated using the commercial code, CFX-5.3. The numerical results showed reasonable agreement with the experimental outputs. The pressure distribution with the variation of spool opening length and volume flow rate were discussed in detail. And the continuous and variable damping performance was found clearly. The individual parameters of spool valve were obtained as a function of orifice area. The exponent and discharge coefficient were fitted in with the first and the third polynomial respectively.

  • In this paper, we proposed the recognition system of car license plates to mitigate traffic problems. The processing sequence of the proposed algorithm is as follows. At first, a license plate segment is extracted from an acquired car image using morphological features and color information, and noises are eliminated from the extracted license plate segment using line scan algorithm and Grassfire algorithm, and then individual codes are extracted from the license plate segment using edge tracking algorithm. Finally the extracted individual codes are recognized by an FCM algorithm. In order to evaluate performance of segment extraction and code recognition of the proposed method, we used 100 car images for experiment. In the results, we could verify the proposed method is more effective and recognition performance is improved in comparison with conventional car license plate recognition methods.

  • Many of the current buildings in Algeria were built in the past without any consideration to the requirements of the seismic code. Among these buildings, there are a large number of individual houses built in the 1980's by their owners. They are Reinforced Concrete (RC) frame structures with unreinforced hollow masonry infill walls. This buildings type experienced major damage in the 2003 (Algeria) earthquake, generated by deficiencies in the structural system. In the present study, special attention is placed upon examining the vulnerability of RC frame houses. Their situation and their general features are investigated. Observing their seismic behavior, structural deficiencies are identified. The seismic vulnerability of this type of buildings depends on several factors, such as; structural system, plan and vertical configuration, materials and workmanship. The results of the vulnerability assessment of a group of RC frame houses are presented. Using a method based on the European Macroseismic Scale EMS-98 definitions, presented in previous studies, distribution of damage is obtained.

  • For the purpose of investigating the contributions of various gases to climate change, the thermal radiation associated with greenhouse gases are extracted from AIRS (Atmospheric Infrared Sounder) infrared radiances over the tropical pacific region. AIRS instrument which was launched on the EOS-Aqua satellite in May 2002 covers the spectral range from 650 cm-1 to 2700 cm-1 with a spectral resolution of between 0.4 cm-1 and 1 cm-1. In order to extract the thermal radiation absorbed by individual gases, the interfering background radiances at the top of the atmosphere are simulated using the radiative transfer code MODTRAN (MODerate spectral resolution atmospheric TRANsmittance). The simulations incorporated the temperature and water vapor profiles taken from NCEP (National Centers for Environmental Prediction) reanalyses. The differences between the simulated background radiance and AIRS-measured radiance result in the absorption of upward longwave radiation by atmospheric gases (i.e. greenhouse effect). The extracted absorption bands of individual gases will allow us to quantify the radiative forcing of individual greenhouse gases and thus those data will be useful for climate change studies and for the validation of radiative transfer codes used in general circulation models.

  • Many researches have been done to develop and improve the performance of personal (individual) dosimeter response to cover a wide of neutron energy range (from thermal to fast). Depending on the individual category of the dosimeter, the semiconductor sensor has been used to simplify and lightweight. In this plan, it's very important to have a fairly accurate counting of doses rate in different energies. With a general design and single-sensor simulations, all optimal thicknesses have been extracted. The performance of the simulation scheme has been compared with the commercial and laboratory samples in the world. Due to the deviation of all dosimeters with a flat energy response, in this paper, has been used an idea of one semi-conductor sensor to have the flat energy-response in the entire neutron energy range. Finally, by analyzing of the sensors data as arrays for the first time, we have reached a nearly flat and acceptable energy-response. Also a comparison has been made between Lucite-PMMA ($H_5C_5O_2$) and polyethylene-PE ($CH_2$) as a radiator and $B_4C$ has been studied as absorbent. Moreover, in this paper, the effect of gamma dose in the dosimeter has been investigated and shown around the standard has not been exceeded.

  • The crack width of concrete structures subjected to shrinkage depend on a great number of parameters whose effects are restrain condition, the number and spacing of crack and the amounts of reinforcements. Through suitable reinforcement it is possible to make the individual cracks exceedigly small. This paper is to present the amount of reasonable reinforcement for crack control through a rational analysis of forces occuring in significantly restrained concrete structures due to the shrinkage. Also the analysis results from this paper are compared with the provisions for shrinkage and temperture reinforcement in the KCI concrete strucural design code.
