A 52-year-old man was referred to our hospital due to fever and myalgia that occurred 2 weeks earlier. He showed a complete atrioventricular block on his electrocardiogram, and his vital signs were unstable. On his transthoracic echocardiograph, the 1.5 cm vegetation in the aortic valve with severe aortic regurgitation suggested infective endocarditis. His transesophageal enchocardiograph showed abscess in his mitral-aortic intervalvular fibrosa and vegetation was suspected on his anterior mitral valve leaflet. The patient underwent an emergent operation for valve replacement with temporary epicardial pacing. Intraoperatively, the septal leaflet of his tricuspid valve was injured during the debridement of the abscess pocket that was extended to the membranous septum. The aortic, mitral, and tricuspid mechanical valves were replaced with annular reconstruction without complications. After 14 days of intravenous antibiotics, we successfully changed the epicardial pacemaker into a transvenous DDD-type permanent pacemaker by placing a left ventricular lead via the coronary sinus and an atrial lead in the right atrium appendage. The patient was discharged in a tolerable state and was examined uneventfully in our hospital's outpatient clinic for 8 months.

The concrete is considered as an important radiation shielding material employed widely in nuclear reactors, particle accelerators, laboratory hot cells and other different radiation sources. The present research is dedicated to the shielding properties study of the ordinary concrete reinforced with different weight fractions of lead oxide micro/nano particles. Lead oxide particles were fabricated by chemical synthesis method and their properties including the average size, morphological structure, functional groups and thermal properties were characterized by XRD, FESEM-EDS, FTIR and TGA analysis. The gamma ray mass attenuation coefficient of concrete composites has been calculated and measured by means of the Monte Carlo simulation and experimental methods. The simulation process was based on the use of MCNP Monte Carlo code where the mass attenuation coefficient (μ/ρ) has been calculated as a function of different particle sizes and filler weight fractions. The simulation results showed that the employment of the lead oxide filler particles enhances the mass attenuation coefficient of the ordinary concrete, drastically. On the other hand, there are approximately no differences between micro and nano sized particles. The mass attenuation coefficient was increased by increasing the weight fraction of nanoparticles. However, a semi-saturation effect was observed at concentrations more than 10 wt%. The experimental process was based on the fabrication of concrete slabs filled by different weight fractions of nano lead oxide particles. The mass attenuation coefficients of these slabs were determined at different gamma ray energies using ²²Na, ¹³⁷Cs and ⁶⁰Co sources and NaI (Tl) scintillation detector. The experimental results showed that the HVL parameter of the ordinary concrete reinforced with 5 wt% of nano PbO particles was reduced by 64% at 511 keV and 48% at 1332 keV. Reasonable agreement was obtained between simulation and experimental results and showed that the employment of nano PbO particles is more efficient at low gamma energies up to 1Mev. The proposed concrete is less toxic and could be prepared in block form instead of toxic lead blocks.

경사고임대의 지지블록에서 발휘되는 수동토압은 지반종류에 따라 발휘되는 토압이 다르다. 영구구조물인 옹벽 설계에서는 수동토압의 안전율을 고려하도록 하고 있으나, 가시설에 설치되는 경사고임대 지지블록에 작용하는 토압은 실제 발휘되는 수동측토압보다 과하게 산정되어 불안전측의 설계가 되고 있다. 본 연구에서는 3차원 수치해석(PLAXIS)을 이용 토사지반에서 경사고임대 지지블록에 발생되는 수동측토압을 산정하였다. 토사지반으로 연약지반과 풍화토지반이 선택되었다. 수치해석결과 각 지반에서 지지블록의 수평변위와 수동측토압 관계 곡선이 산정되었으며 이 곡선상의 항복점이 설계에 적용할 경사고임대 지지체에서의 저항력으로 연약지반에서는 Rankine 수동토압의 약 55.5%, 풍화토지반에서는 약 66%를 보는 것이 안정성 측면에서 바람직한 것으로 나타났다.

블록체인은 시스템에 참여하는 사용자들 사이에 믿음을 확보할 수 있는 기술로 떠오르고 있다. 블록체인에 대한 관심이 높아지면서 선행 연구들은 블록체인 기술에 관련된 암호화폐와 적용방안에 대한 연구를 주로 수행하였다. 반면에 블록체인의 안정적인 구동에 대한 연구는 크게 주목하지 않았다. 대표적으로 블록체인의 엉클블록은 블록체인 시스템의 안정적 구동에 중요한 역할을 담당함에도 불구하고 이에 대한 연구는 거의 수행되지 않았다. 이러한 인식을 기반으로 본 연구는 블록체인 정보와 거시 경제 요인들을 활용하여 블록체인의 엉클블록을 머신러닝 기법으로 예측하고자 하였다. 인공신경망, 서포트벡터머신 분석 결과, 블록체인 정보와 거시 경제 요인들은 블록체인의 엉클블록 예측에 기여하는 것으로 나타났다. 또한, 블록체인 정보만을 활용한 인공신경망은 엉클블록의 발생을 예측하는데 가장 우수한 성능을 제공하는 것으로 나타났다. 본 연구는 정보시스템 분야에서 블록체인 연구를 주도하고 기여할 수 있는 방안을 제시한다.

Multiblock structured grids are, to a large extent, capable of filling up topologically complex flow domains in an efficient way. The proposed approach enables to use different flow models in each different block and the easy incorporation of different grid refinement strategies for different blocks. Furthermore, it may be expected that this multiblock structured approach will naturally lead to the parallel executions of calculations per block on different vector processors. In this paper, the hypercube + + structure is proposed for topological informations on multiblock grids and the B-spline volume for geometrical informations. Three samples of the-three dimensional results are presented to demonstrate the capabilities of the present approach.

ECG limb lead II signal widely used to diagnosis heart diseases and it is essential to detect ECG events (onsets, offsets and peaks of the QRS complex P wave and T wave) and extract them from ECG signal for heart diseases diagnoses. However, it is very difficult to develop standardized feature extraction formulas since ECG signals are varying on patients and disease types. In this paper, simple feature extraction method from normal and abnormal types of ECG signals is proposed. As a signal features, heart rate, PR interval, QRS interval, QT interval, interval between S wave and baseline, and T wave types are extracted. To show the validity of proposed method, Right Bundle Branch Block (RBBB), Left Bundle Branch Block (LBBB), Sinus Bradycardia, and Sinus Tachycardia data from MIT-BIH arrhythmia database are used for feature extraction and the extraction results showed higher extraction capability compare to conventional formula based extraction method.
