This paper evaluates the performance of a Magneto-Rheological (MR) fluid mount. The mount incorporates MR fluid in a conventional fluid mount to open and closed the inertia track between the fluid chambers of the mount. It is shown that such switching of the inertia track improves the mount's isolation effect, by eliminating the large transmissibility peak that commonly exists at frequencies higher than the notch frequency for conventional fluid mounts. The switching frequencies of the MR mount is evaluated, based on the parameters of the mount. A simple control scheme for switching the mount between the open and closed states is proposed, and the performance of the controlled mount is compared with conventional mounts. A sensitivity analysis is conducted to evaluate the effect of parameter errors in estimating the switching frequencies and mount performance. The results show that the switching frequencies can be accurately determined from mount parameters that are easily measured or estimated.

본 연구에서는 액체 로켓용 추진제 분사기로 많이 활용되는 충돌형 분사기중에서 2중 충돌(F-O-O-F)형 분사기에 대한 미립화 특성을 파악하였다. 액적의 크기를 측정하기 위하여 위상/도플러 입자분석기를 사용하였으며, 모의 추진제로 물을 사용하였다. 모의 추진제의 운동량비와 압력 강하량 변화에 따른 2중 충돌(F-O-O-F)형 분사기의 미립화 특성과 크기분포에 대하여 고찰하였다. 분사기 면으로부터 100mm 떨어진 단면에서 산화제/연료의 운동량비가 MR=1.19에서 MR=6.48까지 증가함에 따라 액적크기(SMD)는 감소하였으며, 액적크기(SMD)가 운동량비(MR)에 대하여 SMD= 193.480+15.687MR-5.036M$R^2$+0.415MR$^3$와 같은 관계식에 근사되었다 또한, 연료와 산화제의 압력강하량이 증가할수록 액적크기(SMD)가 감소하였다. 충돌 분무유동장의 액적크기 분포는 Rosin-Rammler 분포함수와 Upper-limit분포함수 모두에 대하여 잘 일치하고 있다. 본 연구의 결과는 액체 로켓용 충돌형 분사기의 초기 설계단계에서 유용하게 사용될 수 있을 것이다.

Nonketotic hyperglycinemia (NKH) is a rare metabolic brain disease caused by deficient activity of the glycine cleveage system. Localized proton MR spectroscopy (echo-time 166 msec), performed in an infant with the typical clinical and biochemical features of neonatal NKH, showed a markedly increased peak intensity at 3.55 ppm, which was assigned to glycine. Serial proton MR spectrosocpic studies indicated that glycine/choline and glycine/total creatine ratios correlated closely with the patient's clinical course. Proton MR spectroscopy was useful for the non-invasive detection and monitoring of cerebral glycine levels in this infant with NKH.

The purpose of this study is to analyze the noise spectra in DWI (diffusion-weighted imaging) pulse sequences of 1.5 Tesla and 3.0 Tesla MRI, The ACR (American College of Radiology) phantom and noise spectrum were analyzed by FFT (fast Fourier transform) and TFFT (temporal frequency analysis) using WavePad sound editor version 8.13 (NCH software, Greenwood Village, CO, USA). Noise spectra, FFT and TFFT were analyzed for laboratory 1.5Tesla and 3.0Tesla DWI MR pulse sequences. The noise threshold of the frequency amplitude in the FFT and TFFT at 3.0Tesla compared to 1.5Tesla was between 1.5Tesla and -6 dB, and between 3.0Tesla and 0 dB, the DWI pulse sequence for the patient's noise reduction was appropriately MR examination needs to be applied.

Liposomes are defined as spherical, self-closed structures formed by lipid bilayers containing aqueous phase. Most liposomes are composed of various amphipathic lipids such as phospholipids and cholesterol. We used amphipathic lipids (DPPC, DPPG) as liposome components and prepared around 100 nm liposomes by standard extrusion method. Nuclear/MR dual imaging agents based on liposome platform were prepared by adding radioactive $^{131}I$-HIB (hexadecyl-4-tributylstannylbenzoate) and Gd-DTPA into liposome bilayer and inside liposome, respectively. Gamma camera and MR imaging both showed signal increases in liver.

Evaluate the triolein emulsion could disrupt the barriers and to suggest as an experimental model in blood-ocular barrier studies. Triolein emulsion was infused into the carotid artery in the experimental group ten cats. Normal saline was used in another the control group ten cats. Pre contrast and postcontrast T1-weighted MR images were obtained at 30 minutes and 3 hours after embolization. Signal intensities were evaluated in the anterior, posterior chamber and in the vitreus qualitatively and quantitatively. Postembolization 30 minutes MR images were not different from those of the control group. Postembolization 3 hour MR images demonstrated delayed contrast enhancement in the anterior chamber of the ipsilateral and contralateral eyeballs and in the posterior chamber of the ipsilateral eyeball. Delayed contrast enhancement of the posterior chamber of the ipsilateral eyeball was statistically significant (P<0.05). The present study demonstrated significant contrast enhancement in the posterior chamber with infusion of triolein emulsion and can be a model in blood-aqueous barrier studies.

The paper presents control performance of a magnetorheological(MR) fluid-based haptic knob which is applicable to in-vehicle comfort functions. As a first step, MR fluid-based haptic knob is devised to be capable of both rotary and push motions with a single device. Under consideration of spatial limitation, design parameters are optimally determined to minimize a reciprocal of control torque using finite element analysis. The proposed haptic knob is then manufactured and its field-dependent torque is experimentally evaluated. Subsequently, in-vehicle comfort functions are constructed in virtual environment and make them communicate with the haptic knob. Control performances such as reflection force are experimentally evaluated via simple feed-forward control strategy.

The magnetoresistance (MR) of $La_{1-\chi}S_{\chi}CoO_{3-\delta}$ films prepared by pulsed-laser deposition were investigated in order to clarify the magnetotransport properties around the metal-insulator transition. For the films in the metallic state ($\chi$ > 0.25), the MR(T) manifests a small peak at the Curie temperature due to the spin-disorder scattering. The transition of the film into the insulating state ($\chi\;\leq$ 0.25) is accompanied by an essential growth of the MR and results in a significant increase in the MR(T) with decreasing temperature, due to a phase separation into the ferromagnetic-metal clusters and the insulating matrix.

목적： I-123 IPT SPECT에서 striatum에 ROI를 설정하여 Strial Binding Ratio를 측정하기 위해 사용되는 육안적인 방법과 MR Template based Coregistration 방법을 비교 평가하였다. 대상 및 방법： 파킨슨씨병 환자(IPD) 15명(남/녀：8/7, 63.3$\pm$4.8세)과 정상인 8명(남/녀：2/6, 61.4$\pm$16.5세) 에서 I-123 IPT(259MBq)를 주사한 후 2시간에 SPECT 영상을 얻었고 미상핵과 조가비핵의 전, 후부 및 후두엽에 각각 육안적인 방법과 MR Template based Coregistration방법으로 ROI를 설정하였다. MR Template based Coregistration 방법은 MNI TIMR template을 이용하여 SPECT영상을 voxel based intensity matching 방법으로 coregistration한 후midthalamic level에서 striatum의 경계를 따라 설정된 ROI를 이용하였다. 육안적인 방법은 striatal uptake가 가장 높은 level에서 3개의 ROI template를 striatum에 위치하였다. 두 방법으로 SBR과 nnterior/posterior ratio of SBR(APR)를 측정하였고 정상인과 파킨슨씨병 환자에서 두 방법을 비교하였다.
