  • Despite extensive research efforts, the mechanism of the nucleate boiling phenomena is still not clear. A direct numerical simulation of the boiling phenomena is one of the promising approaches in order to clarify its heat transfer characteristics and discuss their mechanism. Therefore, many DNS procedures have been developed based on recent highly advancing computer technologies. This brief review focuses on the state of the art in direct numerical simulation of the pool boiling phenomena over the past two decades. In this review, the fundamentals of the boiling phenomena and the bubble departure and micro-layer models are briefly introduced, and then the numerical procedures for tracking or capturing interface/surface shape such as the front tracking method, level set method, volume of fluid treatments, and other methods (Lattice Boltzmann method, phase-field method and so on) are briefly reviewed.

  • The rivulet is a narrow stream of liquid flowing down a solid surface. When the rivulet\`s flow rate exceeds a certain limit, it tends to meander exhibiting the instability of its interface. This analysis performs a perturbation analysis of this meandering rivulet assuming an inviscid flow possessing contact angle hysteresis at the contact line. The analysis reveals that the contact angle hysteresis as well as the velocity difference across the inter-face, strongly induces the instability of the liquid interface. Moreover, when the rivulet veto-city is low, it is predicted that the axisymmetric disturbance amplifies more rapidly than the anti-axisymmetric disturbance, which explains the emergence of the droplet flow at the low velocity regime.

  • There are two different approaches in studying mapping between syntactic structure and prosody, the 'phonetic approach' and the 'phonological approach'. An experiment to examine which approach is more valid was conducted. In the experiment, syntactically ambiguous Seoul Korean sentences in each of which a noun immediately after an adjective starts with either an H-segment (a segment which triggers the AP-initial H tone) or an L-segment (a segment other than H-segments) were recorded. by 3 Seoul Korean speakers. The F0 values in the syllables containing the consonants in question were then measured. The results show that interaction between the segment type and the branching structure is statistically significant. which suggests that it is difficult to use the phonetic .approach to generalize the relationship between syntax and prosody. Thus, it is concluded that the phonological approach is more valid.

  • The effects of coating of 3$\mu\textrm{m}$ thickness on the mechanical property of alumina after heat treatment at 100$0^{\circ}C$ for 30minutes under $10^{-6}$torr vacuum was quantified in terms of modulus of rupture(MOR) using Weibull plot. While the copper coating did not change MOR of alumina due to the nonwetting behavior of Cu on $Al_2O_3$, the reactive titanium metal coating caused a noticeable 29% reduction in averaged MOr strength. This was related with the combined effects of microcracks in coating formed during heat treatment and good bonding character between Ti and $Al_2O_3$. The effect of cosputtering of Ti and Cu, bilayer coatings of Cu/Ti and Ti/Cu were also investigated. It was found that Ti, cosputtered, Cu/ti and Ti/Cu coatings reduced MOR strength of alumina in the order listed. This was correlated with the amount of Ti at coating/alumina inter-face associated with a coated layer or segregation of Ti during heat treatment.

  • Purpose Surgical correction of various occular problems which do not have visual problem in plastic surgical area is to normalize the appearance of the face by restoring the normal position of orbit and eyeball. With development of surgical technique, the orbit can be restored exactly in trauma patient and can be moved totally in hypertelorism, as an example of congenital disease. All these surgeries are based on the hypothesis that the position of oclular glove moves in the plane in a quantitatively predictable reationship to osseous orbit movement. However, no studies have critically evaluated between the change of periorbital soft tissue and the outcome of the surgical correction, because there is no method of objective, quantitave evaluation of the periorbital soft tissue. Method Author suggest the methodology for quantitative assessment of ocular and periocular fat changes using the manipulation of digital images of computed tomographic scan. Results The method was allowed to evaluate inter-dacryon distance, inter-centroid distance, movement of the medial orbital wall, movement of the lateral orbital wall, alteration of thickness of the lateral periorbital fat as indicator of movement of the orbital wall and orbit in the patient with congenital periorbital anomaly and postoperative periorbital surgery. The goal of surgical correction of various occular problems which do not have visual problem in plastic surgical area is to normalize the appearance of the face by restoring the normal position of orbit and eyeball. With development of surgical technique, the orbit can be restored exactly in trauma patient and can be moved totally in hypertelorism, as an example of congenital disease. All these sugeries are based on the hypothesis that the position of oclular glove moves in the plane in a quantitatively predictable relationship to osseous orbit movement. However, no studies have critically evaluated between the change of periorbital soft tissue and the outcome of the surgical correction, because there is no method of objective, quantitave evaluation of the periorbital soft tissue. In this report, author suggest the methodology for quantitative assessment of ocular and periocular fat changes using the manipulation of digital images of computed tomographic scan. Conclusion The method suggested is objective and accurate method in measurement of the orbital contents. It takes time and is not easy to do, however, this kind of measurement for fine structures will be more easily available in near future.

  • This comparative study between Korean and German housings aims at understanding different structural systems in the indoor and outdoor spaces, depending upon the user′s perception of the socio-cultural attributes. The analysis starts with four alternative contrary assumptions, that appear in morphological forms of dwelling; 1) linear distribution vs. areal distribution of residential districts, 2) mirror system vs. comb system in the layout of plot plans 3) organization of front vs. back outdoor spaces and 4) opening vs. closing in the indoor spaces. A clear difference is found between Korean and German samples in view of public and private relationships between indoor and outdoor spaces as well as the intermediate space. In the korean housing there always exists a symbolic and psychological territory of a certain sphere. On the other hand, outdoor space passes through various phases only to form a certain hierarchy even in a private space and, thereby, sets a boundary between private and public areas. In the case of Germany, the building itself draws a clear line between private and public outdoor spaces, and therefore the outdoor space has a "front" and "back". Thus, Germany′s private space may face a genuine public space and street, which is rare in the Korean housing. Although the layout of indoor space in the korean housing tends to be open, such an openness may be outstanding in living and dining spaces, kitchen and various accesses to rooms. In the case of Germany, such indoor spaces are usually closed to each other. Thus corridors act to separate these spaces. Such differences are analysed to be due to the different perceptions of interpersonal and socio-cultural attributes as intra-family and inter-neighbor relationships or communications.

  • In this paper, we proposed planar spiral inductors based on AC coupling for high-frequency wireless signal transmission. Design and characteristics of various structures of the inductor were analyzed. Capacitance between the inductors can be reduced by positioning two thin-film inductors in parallel. So two structures were proposed. First structure is inter-diagonal structure. This structure was made not to overlap the wire part of the paralleled two inductors. Second structure is On-chip type structure that the two thin-film inductors were in parallel but located on diagonal line not to face each other. The resonance in this structure was reduced from twice to once by increasing horizontal distance between the two thin-film inductors, because the capacitance effect between the two thin-film inductors decreases when the distance between the two inductors increases.

  • Approximately 30% of adult patients who want orthodontic treatment have transverse discrepancy with insufficient width of the maxilla. Particularly, in Class III patients requiring orthognathic surgery, the frequency of insufficient width of the maxillary arch related to respiratory problems is high. We report a case of non-surgical maxillary expansion using a Hyrax type expander with an orthognathic surgery, based on the reports that the ratio of non-fused midpalatal suture is not high in adults. A 30 years and 2 months old woman with a long face showed an Angle Class III with a vertical growth pattern. Class III molar and canine relation, anterior edge bite, and mandibular incisor compensatory lingual inclination were observed. The posterior buccal overjet seemed to be appropriate, but I diagnosed that there was a transverse discrepancy, for the following reasons. The inter-canine and inter-molar widths were sufficient but excessive lingual inclination of the mandibular molars was observed when assessing the bucco-lingual inclination based on the center of resistance of the maxillary and mandibular first molar. For this reason, it was expected that intercuspal interference would occur during orthodontic decompensation. Therefore, slow maxillary expansion using Hyrax type expander was performed and 2-jaw rotation surgery was performed to improve aesthetic and occlusion. Adults can also improve width discrepancy by non-surgical methods, which can avoid SARPE requiring additional surgery or segmental surgery lacking stability and predictability.

  • Body has been high-lightened as one of the most important theme since the philosophy and the arts are focused on it in the late 20th century. It would be of worth to study the characteristics of contemporary fiber-art works, especially done by Abakanowiz who has been regarded as a dominant pioneer in the contemporary fiber-arts from the viewpoint of inter-grade of the physicals and the mental. This paper, therefore, deals with the Abaknowiz' works in the context of human body and body-signs. Life and works might be classified into 5 stages: first, learning period since her birth in 1930, second, creation period of Abakans, third, remodelling period of Abakans, fourth, composition and dissolution period of Abakans and the last and fifth, new transformation period of Abakans. 'Abakans' through her whole life as an artist have been a plastic language and based ultimately on external human body but in various materials and forms. Abakan as a human-sign uses the past experiences and the texts of the other world in mixed and overlapped forms. Life-size Abakans by Abaknowiz can be easily understood as Abakanowiz herself and her Polish ancestor at the same time. The neuter Abakans with mashed face and obscure body is a expressive figure of coexisting world with opposite concepts like war and ideology, anxiety and freedom, man and woman, and etc. Human body as body-sign is an extensive image has existed since our forefathers and overlapped with the inter textual and the popular images. 'Abakans' that is our world and inner-self at the same time might be a window through which she tries to show what the world is.
