Purpose: This study compared the effect of music and noise blocking on the vital signs, postoperative pain, analgesic use, length of stay in the Post Anesthesia Care Unit (PACU) and satisfaction after a laparoscopic colectomy. Methods: This randomized controlled trial was performed in a 555-bed National Cancer Center, from February 13 through May 31, 2012. Subjects consisted of 69 patients who underwent a laparoscopic colectomy under general anesthesia, and were recruited by informed notices. The inclusion criteria were patients between the ages of 35-75, with an American Society Anesthesiologist physical classification I or II. The subjects were randomly allocated to three groups; music therapy group (MTG), noise blocking group (NBG) and control group (CG). Collected data were analyzed using Repeated measures ANOVA, one-way ANOVA and Kruskal-Wallis test through IBM SPSS (Version 19.0). Results: There were no significant differences in vital signs among the three groups. Postoperative pain in MTG (p<.05) and NBG (p<.05) was significantly decreased compared to CG. The amount of analgesics (p=.030) and length of stay at PACU (p=.021) in MTG was significantly decreased compared to NBG or CG; satisfaction in MTG and NBG was significantly higher compared to CG. Conclusion: Music seems to reduce postoperative pain, the amount of analgesics, and the length of stay at PACU. Therefore, music therapy is considered to be included in nursing intervention for postoperative patients at PACU.

With an aim of comparison, single grain Y-Ba-Cu-O (YBCO) bulk superconductors were fabricated using a liquid infiltration growth (LIG) process and a conventional melt growth (MTG) process with top seeding. The MTG process uses an $YBa_2Cu_3O_{7-x}$(Y123) powder as a precursor, while the LIG process uses $Y_2BaCuO_5(Y211)/Ba_3Cu_5O_8(Y035)$ pre-forms. The growth of a single Y123 domain on the top seed was successful in the both processes. Different feature between the two processes is the interior microstructure regarding the critical current density ($J_c$). The LIG-processed YBCO sample showed a lower porosity, more uniform distribution of Y211 particles and the enhanced Y211 refinement compared to the conventional MTG process. The $J_c$ improvement in the LIG process is attributed to the dispersion of finer Y211 particles as well as lower porosity within the Y123 superconducting matrix.

Ba$_2Cu_3O_{7-{\delta}}$ (YBCO) thin films were deposited by pulsed laser deposition using differently prepared targets: One was a conventionally solid-state sintered (SSS) target and the other was a modified melt-textured grown (MTC) target. Compared with SSS targets, MTG targets showed a well-connected microstructure consisting of much larger grains and the surface was Bess roughened with the cumulative laser incidence. YBCO films deposited from MTC targets showed a denser and smoother surface of the basal film than the case of SSS targets. The investigations of ${\alpha}$-axis outgrowths in the films indicated that the deposition using MTG targets would result in a more homogeneous and stable film growth as compared to the SSS targets. Also, TEM analysis revealed that the film deposited from MTG targets had a less granular microstructure that would reduce weak-link effects in the film.

In the YBCO matrix, 10wt.% Y$_2$BaCuO$\_$5/ (211 phase) was added, the final 211 content of YBCO made by MTG process could reach about 20wt.% which was the optimum value for the critical current density. And also 10wt.% Ag was added in the matrix of YBCO, which was nearly about the saturate solubility of silver in textured YBCO. SmBaCuO crystal was grown by the melted-condensed process. A 5${\times}$5${\times}$2㎣ single crystal of SmBaCuO was used to be the seed in the preparation of YBCO. It was proved the orientation of YBCO was the same as the orientation of the SmBaCuO seed. The oxygen absorption of bulk oriented YBCO was studied and the heat treatment of oxygen absorption would be in flowing oxygen, at 400$^{\circ}C$ for about 24 hours. the magnetic hysteresis loops were measured by Vibrating Smaple Magnetometer and the J$\_$c/ was calcuated by means of Bean's model.

본 연구에서는 대표적인 전지구 온도지표인 LOC/MTG 온도인자를 이용하여 기후변동성(Climate Variability)을 파악하고 관측수문량의 상대적 변화분석을 위한 특성자료로 활용하였다. 여기서, LOC (Land-Ocean Contrast)는 중위도 지역에서 대륙과 해양의 온도의 차이를 나타내는 지수이며, 고위도 및 아열대 지역의 남북간 기온의 차이는 MTG (Meridional Temperature Gradient)로 정의된다. LOC/MTG 두 패턴의 남북 또는 동서 지점의 변화는 동아시아 지역에서의 대기순환패턴의 변화와 그와 관련된 대기수분이송에 직간접적인 영향인자로서 작용될 수 있다. 또한, 여름철 동아시아의 수문기상의 변화는 식수, 관개용수, 수력발전 및 수산산업과 연관성이 매우 크며, 인간과 자연의 상호관계를 유지하기 위한 지속가능한 수자원의 공급에 중요한 결정요소이다. 따라서 본 연구에서는 한강유역을 대상으로 6월에서 9월 사이에 발생한 여름철 강우 중에서 태풍에 의해 유발된 강우를 제외하고 몬순기후에 의한 한반도 유역의 지역적 강우 특성을 분석하였다. 한강 몬순강우와의 통계적 상관성 분석을 실시한 결과, 여름철 몬순강우의 변화에 민감하게 영향을 미치는 것으로 나타났다.

The study was carried out the efficiency of spent liquor(BSL) obtained from alkaline sulfite-anthraquinone cooking of pine bark added various surfactants. By adding surfactant to alkaline, weak alkaline, nertralized BSL, the dispersing ability of cement was remarkably improved. It was shown that the rate of water-reducing was 20~22%. The most superior efficiency surfactant was MTG. When BSL, MBSL and ABSL were added to MTG, the improvement of early and later strength was clear and also exhibited the superior properties of strength compared to PLAIN. Therefore, is a possibility that BSL will be used instead of melamine-base admixtures.

Scan Element Pattern(SEP) and Scan Impedance(SI) concepts are used to analyze the characteristics of open-ended waveguide array, which is the representative phased array antenna element in C-band and X-band. Transmit SEP's are calculated for 15$\sim$15 subarray and SI's are obtained by applying periodic boundary conditions for a unit cell of the given array condition. CST's MWS and Ansoft's HFSS are utilized for each analysis. Some relations are reviewed between the two results, which are based on mutual coupling effects. For validation purpose, an 8$\sim$8 subarray is constructed and tested. Transmit SEP measured in MTG's far-field range shows good agreement with the calculated transmit SEP.

In this paper, we described the study on back-radiation level improvement of IFF antenna after briefly describing a design of IFF antenna to distinguish the target as the sub-antenna of surveillance radar. The proposed IFF antenna was minimized a size with use all-in-one power divider as a two-channel IFF antenna forming sum and difference pattern. The method for back-radiation level reduction was studied, and the identified method through the simulation confirmed the decrement throught the measurement.
