  • 신경의수를 제어하기 위해서는 사용자의 의도를 인식하는 신경신호 디코딩이 중요하다. 본 논문에서는 다채널 말초 신경신호의 실시간 디코딩 방법을 제안한다. 말초 신경신호는 정중신경과 요골신경에서 측정되었으며 운동잡음은 국소 근사 다항식에 의해 제거되었다. 다음으로 활동전위는 k-평균 알고리즘으로 분류되었다. 특징벡터는 활동전위의 발화율로부터 추출되었으며 자기 조직화 특징지도를 통해 차원이 축소되었다. 마지막으로 다층 퍼셉트론으로 손동작을 분류하였다. 원숭이 실험에서 모든 신호처리가 실시간 제한조건 이내에 완료되었으며 높은 성공률로 손동작을 인식할 수 있었다.

  • In precision machinery systems for medical and chemical applications, micropumps with a low pulsation have been demanded and investigated for accurate delivery of a small amount of liquid. This study proposes sheet type check valves instead of ball type check valves for PZT pumps and performs some tests on dynamics characteristics of check valves having different design parameter with variable frequency. The selected materials of check valves is NBR, PP film, Polyimide and Stainless steel(SUS304). In the experiment, dynamic characteristics of stainless steel thin plate have better performance than others.

  • Background: Microfluidics is of considerable importance in food and agricultural industries. Microfluidics processes low volumes of fluids in channels with extremely small dimensions of tens of micrometers. It enables the miniaturization of analytical devices and reductions in cost and turnaround times. This allows automation, high-throughput analysis, and processing in food and agricultural applications. Purpose: This review aims to provide information on the applications of microfluidics in the agro-food sector to overcome limitations posed by conventional technologies. Results: Microfluidics contributes to medical diagnosis, biological analysis, drug discovery, chemical synthesis, biotechnology, gene sequencing, and ecology. Recently, the applications of microfluidics in food and agricultural industries have increased. A few examples of these applications include food safety analysis, food processing, and animal production. This study examines the fundamentals of microfluidics including fabrication, control, applications, and future trends of microfluidics in the agro-food sector. Conclusions: Future research efforts should focus on developing a small portable platform with modules for fluid handling, sample preparation, and signal detection electronics.

  • Advancing information technology have rapidly changed our service environment of life, culture, and industry. Computer information communication system is applied in medical, health, distribution, and business transaction. Smart is using new information by combining ability of computer and information. Although agriculture is labor intensive industry that requires a lot of hands, agriculture is becoming knowledge-based industry today. In agriculture field, computer communication system is applied on facilities farming and machinery Agricultural. In this paper, we designed and implemented application that provides personalized agriculture related information at the actual farming field. Also, this provides farmer a system that they can directly auction or sell their produced crops. We designed and implemented a system that parsing information of each seasonal, weather condition, market price, region based, crop, and disease and insects through individual setup on ubiquitous environment using location-based sensor network and processing data.

  • The estimation of the work of heart can be treated as one of the most important parameters for determining the amount of circulating blood needed for harmonious metabolism in the human body. By monitoring the work of heart, one can detect increased work load of heart and start the treatment at the early stage of CHF. Thus it is necessary to estimate the work of heart. The contractility of the left ventricle, the second important parameter for representing the motion of heart, can be estimated through information on the work of heart. In this study, the modified Windkessel model, which has been used for a measure of vascular hemodynamic impedance parameters, was adapted to estimate the work of heart.

  • Apoptosis (programmed cell death) is a cellular self-destruction mechanism that is essential for a variety of biological events, such as developmental sculpturing, tissue homeostasis, and the removal of unwanted cells. Mitochondria play a crucial role in regulating cell death. $Ca^{2+}$ has long been recognized as a participant in apoptotic pathways. Mitochondria are known to modulate and synchronize $Ca^{2+}$ signaling. Massive accumulation of $Ca^{2+}$ in the mitochondria leads to apoptosis. The $Ca^{2+}$ dynamics of ER and mitochondria appear to be modulated by the Bcl-2 family proteins, key factors involved in apoptosis. The number and morphology of mitochondria are precisely controlled through mitochondrial fusion and fission process by numerous mitochondria-shaping proteins. Mitochondrial fission accompanies apoptotic cell death and appears to be important for progression of the apoptotic pathway. Here, we highlight and discuss the role of mitochondrial calcium handling and mitochondrial fusion and fission machinery in apoptosis.

  • Since 1973, 40 patients with Patent Ductus Arteriosus were operated in The Department of Thoracic and Cardiovascular Surgery, Korea University Medical College. Clinical analysis of these cases: 1. Age ranged from 8 months old to 28 years old Sex ratio was 22 females to 18 males. 2. Pulse pressure widening above 50 mmHg was appeared in 27 patients. In 31 patients, continuous machinery murmur was heard on left second and third intercostal space, but 9 patients has holosystolic murmur on left sternal border. 3. Retrograde Aortography was performed in 11 patients and right heart catheterization, 17 patients, In 8 patients, pulmonary hypertension [above 30 mmHg in` systole] was noted. 3 out of 8 patients was combined with Ventricular Septal Defect. Severe pulmonary hypertension [above 80mmHg in systole] was presented in 3 patients. 4. In 38 patients, operative method was performed with multiple suture ligation of PDA, and in 2 patients, suture closure through pulmonary arteriotomy under cardiopulmonary bypass. 5.

  • Early detection of an internal malfunction of machinery plays a very important part in all condition monitoring programs. Sensors to detect amplitude. velocity and acceleration are widely used in vibration detection and control. Piezoceramic materials are largely used in sensors and actuators for vibration monitoring and control due to their relatively large output from an induced strain and their arguable self powering characteristics. In this paper a cheap and yet reliable sensors/actuators were developed to detect vibration. The results show that low cost PZT can be designed for optimum detection of bearing vibration. This paper presents the experimental results of a number of piezoceramics characteristics in terms of resonant frequencies and variation of PZT constants with temperature.
