Purpose: The Life Transition Scale (LTS) consists of 24 items that assess the life transition process of parents of autistic children. This study aimed to examine the validity and reliability of the LTS in parents of children with a wide spectrum of disabilities. Methods: Data were collected from 260 parents of children with disabilities through self-report questionnaires. Validity was examined using exploratory and confirmative factor analysis to determine the factor structures of the LTS; socio-demographic differences in LTS scores were examined using the t-test or ANOVA. Reliability was examined using Cronbach's α coefficient. Results: A four-factor structure was validated (χ²=640.0, p<.001, GFI=.81, RMSEA=.07, NNFI=.89, CFI=.89, PNFI=.74, Q [χ²/df]=2.60). The validity of the LTS was verified by exploratory factor analysis, with factor loading ranging from .30 to .80. There were significant differences in the accepting phase according to children's and parents' age and the type of disability, and in the wandering phase according to parental gender, educational level, job, and socioeconomic status. The Cronbach's αs for the reliability of each of the four structures were acceptable, within a range of .80~.90. Conclusion: The LTS is a valid and reliable measurement to assess the life transition process of parents with disabled children.

병행 컴포넌트를 포함하는 소프트웨어는 디버깅하기가 매우 어렵다. 따라서 철저하면서도 자동화된 검증 도구의 사용이 필수적이다. 이러한 도구 개발의 노력 중 하나가 바운드 모델 체킹 도구이다. 바운드 모델 체킹은 주어진 바운드 k 안에서 시스템의 실행 경로에 에러가 존재하는지를 철저히 검사한다. 본 논문에서는 LTS로 모델링 된 병행 프로그램을 검증하는 바운드 모델 체킹 도구를 소개한다. 이 도구에서 속성은 FLTL로 기술되는데 FLTL은 LTS 모델에서 액션을 가지고 속성을 표현하기에 적합하다. 우리는 기존 모델 체커들과의 실험을 통해서 개발된 도구의 성능을 비교분석한다.

Loop thermosyphon(LTS) has many good characteristics such as low thermal resistance, no power consumption, noiseless operation and small size. To investigate the overall performance of LTS, we have performed various experiments varying three parameters: input power of the heater, working fluid(water, ethanol, FC3283) and filling ratio of the working fluid. At a combination of these parameters, temperature measurements are made at many locations of the LTS. The temperature difference between the evaporator and the condenser is used to obtain the thermal resistance. In addition, flow visualization using a high speed camera is carried out. The thermal resistance is not constant. It is lower at higher input power, which is one of the distinct merits of LTS. Flow instabilities are frequently observed when changing the working fluid, the input power and the filling ratio. The results show that the LTS can be readily put into practical use. Future practical application in electronic cooling is recommended.

The Event-B design pattern is an excellent way to quickly develop a formal model of the system. Researchers have proposed a number of Event-B design patterns, but they all lack formal behavior semantics. This makes the analysis, verification, and simulation of the behavior of the Event-B model very difficult, especially for the control-intensive systems. In this paper, we propose a novel method to transform the Event-B synchronous control flow design pattern into the labeled transition system (LTS) behavior model. Then we map the design pattern instantiation process of Event-B to the instantiation process of LTS model and get the LTS behavior semantic model of Event-B model of a multi-level complex control system. Finally, we verify the linear temporal logic behavior properties of the LTS model. The experimental results show that the analysis and simulation of system behavior become easier and the verification of the behavior properties of the system become convenient after the Event-B model is converted to the LTS model.

심정지 또는 중증 외상 환자의 신속한 기도유지는 매우 중요하다. 본 연구의 목적은 후두튜브(LTS)와 후두마스크(PLMA)의 삽관 속도, 성공률, 교육 전 후 자신감 변화를 비교하여 병원 전 단계의 주축을 담당하고 있는 119구급대의 전문기도관리 능력을 향상 시키는데 있다. 연구 대상자는 119구급대원 중 1급 응급구조사 60명(LTS군 30명, PLMA군 30명)이며 마네킹을 대상으로 5분간 3회 실습 후 삽관 소요시간과 성공 여부, 자신감 변화를 측정하였다. 연구결과 LTS와 PLMA를 이용한 삽관 시간은 유의한 차이를 보였고(p=.000), 성공률은 유의한 차이가 없으며, 실험 후 자신감은 유의하게 상승하였다(p=.000). 결론적으로 경추가 고정되고 혀 부종이 있는 외상환자에게 신속한 삽관이 필요한 경우 LTS 사용이 효과적이며 교육을 통하여 전문기도관리 능력을 향상시킬 수 있을 것으로 사료된다.

One of the recent proposals with nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) is a multi-bore NMR which consists of array of magnets which could present possibilities to quickly cope with pandemic virus by multiple inspection of virus samples. Low temperature superconductor (LTS) can be a candidate for mass production of the magnet due to its low price in fabrication as well as operation by applying the helium zero boil-off technology. However, training feature of LTS magnet still hinders the low cost operation due to multiple boil-offs during premature quenches. Thus in this paper, LTS magnet with low mechanical stress is designed targeting the "training-free" LTS magnet for mass production of magnet array for multi-bore NMR. A thorough process of an LTS magnet design is conducted, including the analyses as the followings: electromagnetics, mechanical stress, cryogenics, stability, and protection. The magnet specification was set to 4.7 T in a winding bore of 85 mm, corresponding to the MR frequency of 200 MHz. The stress level is tolerable with respect to the wire yield strength and epoxy crack where mechanical disturbance is less than the minimum quench energy.

고해상도의 NMR 연구 개발을 위해서는 고자장의 마그넷연구가 선행되어야 한다. 고자장을 구현하기 위해서는 저온초전도체를 이용한 마그넷뿐만이 아니라 고온초전도체를 이용한 인서트 코일의 연구가 필요하다. 연세대학교에서는 국가지정연구실사업으로 단백질 구조 규명의 초고자장 NMR 실현을 위한 고온초전도 인서트 코일 기술연구를 진행하고 있다. 본 논문에서는 고온초전도 인서트 코일 연구를 위해 제작할 LTS background magnet과 HTS 인서트 코일에 대한 전자장 해석을 진행하였다. 균일도나 선재 사양 등의 주요 변수 등을 고려하여 LTS background magnet과 HTS 인서트 코일에 적합한 사양을 결정하도록 하였다.

Background and Objectives： Intractable aspiration in patients with impaired protective function of the larynx often results in multiple episode of aspiration pneumonia, repeated hospitalizations and expensive nursing care. The purpose of this study was to review the authors’experience and Patient outcome with the laryngotracheal separation (LTS) procedure. Materials and Methods A retrospective review of 9 patients who underwent LTS between 1996 and 2001 was conducted. Ages ranged from 3 to 72 years. Results : Seven patients were expected to have morbid aspiration as a consequence of acquired neurologic injuries and two were congenital neurologic injuries. Two patients had a postoperative fistula, which was well controlled with local wound care and minor procedure. Following LTS, aspiration was effectively controlled in all patients and four were able to tolerate a regular diet. Conclusion : LTS is a low-risk, successful. definitive procedure which decreases the potential for aspiration, pulmonary complication, hospitalizations and increases quality of life, especially in patent with irreversible upper airway dysfunction and Poor speech potential.

The finite volume time domain(FVTD) method gives accurate results for the calculation of electromagnetic wave propagation but it should be noted that the number of sampling points per wavelength should be increased when more accurate numerical results are required. Moreover it requires large amount of computer memory resources. In this paper we propose a modified FVTD that employs a time subdivision. The local time-subdivided FVTD(FVTD-LTS) method is enough to divide the space domain grid with a large step size. This method can reduce computation time and memory resources. To validate the proposed method, sever numerical examples are presented. We have then shown that the proposed method yields a reasonable solution.
