A technique based on the finite element method (FEM) is used in the simulation of metal cutting process. This offers the advantages of the prediction of the cutting force, the stresses, the temperature, the tool wear, and optimization of the cutting condition, the tool shape and the residual stress of the surface. However, the accuracy and reliability of prediction depend on the flow stress of the workpiece. There are various models which describe the relationship between the flow stress and the strain. The Johnson-Cook model is a well-known material model capable of doing this. Low-alloy steel is developed for a dry storage container for used nuclear fuel. Related to this, a process analysis of the plastic machining capability is necessary. For a plastic processing analysis of machining or forging, there are five parameters that must be input into the Johnson-Cook model in this paper. These are (1) the determination of the strain-hardening modulus and the strain hardening exponent through a room-temperature tensile test, (2) the determination of the thermal softening exponent through a high-temperature tensile test, (3) the determination of the cutting forces through an orthogonal cutting test at various cutting speeds, (4) the determination of the strain-rate hardening modulus comparing the orthogonal cutting test results with FEM results. (5) Finally, to validate the Johnson-Cook material parameters, a comparison of the room-temperature tensile test result with a quasi-static simulation using LS-Dyna is necessary.

In the study, we analyzed the collision characteristics of a so-called arch-type submarine cable protector by considering the changes in drop heights of a stock anchor and material models for concrete and steel reinforcing bars. We considered plastic kinematics model and Johnson-Holmquist Concrete model for the concrete and linear elastic model and plastic kinematics model for the reinforcing bars. The drop heights of 2-ton stock anchor were selected as 3, 5, and 8.83m, respectively. ANSYS, a finite element analysis program, was used for the collision analysis. To save computational time, we converted those drop heights into initial velocities by the principle of energy conservation. From the sensitivity of the material models on the drop height changes, it is shown that the collision response of the reinforcing bars is sensitive firstly on the steel models and secondly on the concrete models, while the collision response of the concrete is sensitive only on the concrete models.

In this study, dimensionless-cumulative rainfall curves were generated by multivariate Monte Carlo method. For generation of rainfall curve rainfall storms were divided and made into dimensionless type since it was required to remove the spatial and temporal variances as well as differences in rainfall data. The dimensionless rainfall curves were divided into 4 types, and log-ratio method was introduced to overcome the limitations that elements of dimensionless-cumulative rainfall curve should always be more than zero and the sum total should be one. Orthogonal transformation by Johnson system and the constrained non-normal multivariate Monte Carlo simulation were introduced to analyse the rainfall characteristics. The generative technique in stochastic rainfall variation using multivariate Monte Carlo method will contribute to the design and evaluation of hydrosystems and can use the establishment of the flood disaster prevention system.

지구온난화로 인한 홍수빈도 및 강우강도의 증가로 홍수피해의 규모는 더욱 증가하고 있다. 그리고 방재대책도 발생한 피해에 대한 복구를 주된 정책으로 하던 소극적 자세에서 벗어나 과학적 공학적 접근을 통해 재해에 대응할 수 있는 기술을 개발하는 적극적 홍수방어 체계를 구축하고 있다. 또한, 설계빈도의 무조건적인 상향조정에 따른 확정론적인 방법에 의존하기 보다는 추계학적 방법을 도입한 수문량 확충 및 매개변수의 불확실성 분석이 필요성이 대두되고 있는 실정이다. 일반적으로 수공구조물의 설계 시에는 설계홍수량을 사용하는데 이는 홍수특성, 홍수발생빈도, 홍수발생 가능성 등을 수공구조물의 규모와 파괴 시 예상되는 피해 정도에 따라 요구되는 안전성을 함께 고려해 수공구조물의 설계기준으로 활용된다. 설계홍수량은 지속시간과 재현기간을 사전에 지정하여 빈도분석을 통해 설계강우량을 산정하고 이를 강우-유출 분석을 함으로써 산정된다. 설계강우량은 빈도분석을 위해 선택된 강우형태에 따른 수문학적 무작위성을 포함하고 있다. 따라서 시간적 변동을 고려한 적절한 강우양상 형태의 선택은 수문학적으로 안전한 수공구조물의 설계 및 평가에 매우 큰 영향을 미친다. 현재의 경우는 강우형태에 대한 선택이 경험에 의해 임의로 이루어지므로, 토목공학자는 여러 가지 발생 가능한 강우형태에 따른 시간적 분포에 대해 고려해야 한다. 본 연구에서는 Huff분위에 따른 무차원 누가 강우곡선을 이용해 강우변동양상 생성을 위한 제약조건을 log-ratio 변환을 이용해 극복하였으며, 결과의 통계 특성치를 Johnson 분포를 통해 표준정규분포로 변환시켰다. 무작위 변수 발생 후 강우양상별 표준정규값의 상관행렬을 이용하여 상관성이 있는 무작위변수로 변환하였다. 얻어진 상관성을 갖는 무작위변수는 log-ratio 역변환을 통해 상관성을 갖는 변수로 재변환해서 무차원화된 강우곡선을 얻을 수 있었다.

Children above age of two are able to have sexual excitement, and they actively seek the pleasure actively or passively through touch and masturbation. In late $60_s$ and early $70_s$, Masters, obstetrician, and Johnson, social worker, illustrated four phases of human sexual responses, namely excitement, plateau, orgasmic and resolution phases in both sexes, and multiple orgasms in the female. Their treatment principles of sexual dysfunctions were largely based on behavioral model, introducing the concepts of sensate focus, dual therapy and sex education. Following Masters and Johnson, Kaplan, psychiatrist and psychoanalyst, in the early and mid-$70_s$ introduced new sex therapy which was based on the combination of analytically-oriented psychotherapy and behavior therapy, and classified sexual dysfunctions into three categories such as desire excitement and orgasmic phase disorders. Since $1980_s$ other medical fields joined the stream, putting the concentrated effort on the treatment of the impotence in the male. They have developed penile prosthesis, local injection therapy, and the administration of oral medications. Nowadays Sildenafil(Viagra) seems the best choice for the treatment of the impotence in the male.

Purpose: We evaluated three blood glucose self-monitoring for measuring whole blood glucose levels in preterm and low-birth-weight infants. Methods: Between December 1, 2012 and March 31, 2013, 230 blood samples were collected from 50 newborns, who weighed, ${\leq}2,300g$ or were ${\leq}36$ weeks old, in the the neonatal intensive care unit of Eulji University Hospital. Three blood glucose self-monitoring (A: Precision Pcx, Abbott; B: One-Touch Verio, Johnson & Johnson; C: LifeScan SureStep Flexx, Johnson & Johnson) were used for the blood glucose measurements. The results were compared to those obtained using laboratory equipment (D: Advia chemical analyzer, Siemens Healthcare Diagnostics Inc.). Results: The correlation coefficients between laboratory equipment and the three blood glucose self-monitoring (A, B, and C) were found to be 0.888, 0.884, and 0.900, respectively. For glucose levels ${\leq}60mg/dL$, the correlation coefficients were 0.674, 0.687, and 0.679, respectively. For glucose levels>60 mg/dL, the correlation coefficients were 0.822, 0.819, and 0.839, respectively. All correlation coefficients were statistically significant. And the values from the blood glucose self-monitoring were not significantly different from the value of the laboratory equipment, after correcting for each device's average value (P>0.05). When using laboratory equipment (blood glucose ${\leq}60mg/dL$), each device had a sensitivity of 0.458, 0.604, and 0.688 and a specificity of 0.995, 0.989, and 0.989, respectively. Conclusion: Significant difference is not found between three blood glucose self-monitoring and laboratory equipment. But correlation between the measured values from blood glucose self-monitoring and laboratory equipment is lower in preterm or low-birth-weight infants than adults.

The conventional Split Hopkinson Pressure Bar (C-SHPB) technique with aluminum pressure bars to achieve a closer impedance match between the pressure bars and the specimen materials such as hot temperature degraded POM (Poly Oxy Methylene) and PP (Poly Propylene) to obtain more distinguishable experimental signals is used to obtain a dynamic behavior of material deformation under a high strain rate loading condition. An experimental modification with Pulse shaper is introduced to reduce the nonequilibrium on the dynamic material response during a short test period to increase the rise time of the incident pulse for two polymeric materials. For the dynamic stress strain curve obtained from SHPB experiment under high strain rate, the Johnson-Cook model is applied as a constitutive equation, and we verify the applicability of this constitutive equation to the probabilistic reliability estimation method. The methodology to estimate the reliability using the probabilistic method such as the FORM and the SORM has been proposed, after compose the limit state function using Johnson-Cook model. It is found that the failure probability estimated by using the SORM is more reliable than those of the FORM, and the failure probability increases with the increase of applied stress. Moreover, it is noted that the parameters of Johnson-Cook model such as A and n, and applied stress affect the failure probability more than the other random variables according to the sensitivity analysis.

Brodie abscess is a localized form of subacute or chronic osteomyelitis which is common in children but may also occur in adulthood. When Brodie abscess is located in the posterior metaphysis of the proximal tibia, open biopsy and curettage have a difficulty in approach to the lesion and can cause neurovascular injury or soft tissue contamination. We report a case wherein a novel surgical technique was used to treat a Brodie abscess in the posterior proximal tibial metaphysis in 48 year-old-male with endoscopic-assisted curettage by commercial anterior cruciate ligament targeting device(Rigid Fix; Mitek, Johnson & Johnson, Norwood, MA). Two portals were created toward the abscess site and, through each portal interchangeably, the granulation tissue and sclerotic bone could be excised. We believe that endoscopic-assisted curettage presents safe technique, decreased morbidity, accurate assessment of the extent of the abscess and possible improvement in long-term outcomes.

One of main aspects of time series analysis is to forecast future values of series based on values up to a given time. The prediction interval for future values is usually obtained under the normality assumption. When the assumption is seriously violated, a transformation of data may permit the valid use of the normal theory. We investigate the prediction problem for future values in the original scale when transformations are applied in ARMA models. In this paper, we introduce the methodology based on Yeo-Johnson transformation to solve the problem of skewed data whose modelling is relatively difficult in the analysis of time series. Simulation studies show that the coverage probabilities of proposed intervals are closer to the nominal level than those of usual intervals.

A 49 years old male patient was referred from the Department of Medicine, KNUH for the management of painful oral lesions. The patient had disability of food and drug intake due to multiple intraoral ulcers. Extraoral findings showed upper and lower lip swelling, crust formation on the lips. The lesions were diagnosed as Stevens-Johnson syndrome based on clinical and hematologic findings. The patient was treated with saline irrigation and pulsed Nd:YAG laser irradiation. After 5 daily treatment, the lesions decreased in size and severity, and the patient became more comfortable for food intake and speeching. It was suggested from the results of this clinical trial that a pulsed Nd:YAG laser therapy would be helpful for the symptoms associated with Stevens-Johnson syndrome.
