  • An experimental study for characteristics of soot were conducted at the post-flame region in jet diffusion flames, where carbon dioxide was used as additives in oxidizer stream. Light-extinction method was performed using He-Ne laser with wave length at 632.8nm for the measurement of relative soot density and soot volume fraction with dimensionless extinction coefficient, $K_e$ and mass specific extinction coefficient, ${\sigma}_s$. To increase of resolution, laser light was modified for sheet-form using concave, convex lenses and slit. C/H ratio was introduced for quantitative analysis of soot growth which is expressed by carbonization and dehydrogen. Also transmission electron microscopy(TEM) was used for observation of morphological shape. The results show that the relative soot density in the post-flame region was lower when carbon dioxide was added in oxidizer stream because of reduction of flame temperature.

  • The Purpose of this study is to detect morphological changes of the maxilla following the operation of paranasal sinuses in the orthopantomogram. 1) The measurement of the angle set up by two reference lines which represent posterior aspect of the maxilla and skull base was made. 2) The mean angle in the post-operative patients showed significantly smaller than that in the normal subjects. 3) The forms of posterior aspect of maxilla were classified into 5 types. (flat, convex, concave, uneven and obliterated.) 4) In contrast with the convex type in the majority of normal subjects, approximately half of the post-operative patients showed the concave type. 5) These results may suggest that the superior part of the posterior aspect of the maxilla tend to depress following the operation of these paranasal sinuses.

  • 최근 시각 관련 측정기 개발에 대한 관심이 높아지고 있다. 이에 본 연구는 자동 시각 굴절력 곡률계의 전자 부문에 연동될 굴절력 측정 알고리즘을 개발하였다. 만약 자동화된 시스템이 광학계로부터 나오는 영상을 이용하여 내부 처리를 거친 후 정확한 시각 측정치를 검사자에게 알려줄 수 있다면 잘못 측정되는 측정 횟수를 크게 줄일 수 있을 것이다. 본 연구는 형태학적 필터링(morphological filtering)과 그레이-레벨의 신호 강조(signal enhance) 기술들을 이용하여 자동 시각 굴절력 측정 시스템에 연동될 측정 알고리즘을 개발하였다. 알고리즘에서는 광학계로부터, 도출된 영상으로부터 첫째로 형태학적 필터링 처리를 행하여 처리가 어려운 원 영상을 좀 더 다루기 쉬운 상태로 바꿔준 후 영상에 가해주는 그레이 수준 한계 기법을 통해 신호를 강조함으로써 영상의 그레이 값 분포가 다양함으로 인해서 발생되는 오차를 줄이게 된다. 그리하여 본 전자 부문 소프트웨어는 정확한 측정값 도출이 어려운 시각 영상에 적용되어 효과적으로 오차를 줄임으로써 보다 효율적인 시각 측정을 가능하게 하였다.

  • In this paper we have investigated the surface degradation by ultraviolet-irradiation in high-temperature vulcanized silicone rubber. Through the measurement of surface potential decay by corona-charging and of contact angle it is found that the change of surface electrostatic properties and the decrease of contact angle under UV-radiation. For the changes in micro-morphological and chemical structure of the UV-treated silicone rubber we utilized several analytical techniques such as SEM, ATR-FTIR,XPS. From this study it is shown that the chemical reactions(scissoring of side chain(S-$CH_3$) cross-linking and branching) occur on the surface of silicone rubber during the UV-irradiation. Also we obtained the results of the loss of low molecular weight chain by cross-linking and oxidation reaction.

  • Remarkable advances in neonatal care have significantly improved the survival of extremely low birth weight infants in recent years. However, intraventricular hemorrhage (IVH) continues to be a major complication in preterm infants, leading to a high incidence of cerebral palsy and cognitive impairment. IVH is primarily caused by disruption of the fragile vascular network of the subependymal germinal matrix, and subsequent ventricular dilatation adversely affects the developing infant brain. Based on recent research, periventricular white matter injury is caused not only by ischemia and morphological distortion due to ventricular dilatation but also by free iron and inflammatory cytokines derived from hematoma and its lysates. The current guidelines for the treatment of posthemorrhagic hydrocephalus (PHH) in preterm infants do not provide strong recommendations, but initiating treatment intervention based on ultrasound measurement values before the appearance of clinical symptoms of PHH has been proposed. Moreover, in the past decade, therapeutic interventions that actively remove hematomas and lysates have been introduced. The era is moving beyond cerebrospinal fluid shunt toward therapeutic goals aimed at improving neurodevelopmental outcomes.

  • AZO (Al doped ZnO) thin films were deposited on the quartz substrates with thickness variation from 25 to 300 nm by using PLD (pulsed laser deposition). XRD (x-ray diffractometer), SPM (scanning probe microscopy), Hall effect measurement and uv-visible spectrophotometer were employed to investigate the structural, morphological, electrical and optical properties of the thin films. XRD results demonstrated that films were preferrentially oriented along the c-axis and crystallinity of film was improved with increase of film thickness. As for the surface morphologies, the mean diameter and root mean square of grains were increased as the film thickness was increased. When the film thickness was 200 nm, the lowest resistivity of $4.25{\times}10^{-4}\;{\Omega}cm$ obtained with carrier concentration of $6.84{\times}10^{20}\;cm^{-3}$ and mobility of $21.4\;cm^2/V{\cdot}S$. All samples showed more than 80% of transmittance in the visible range. Upon these results, it is found that the samples thickness can affect their structural, morphological, optical and electrical properties. This study suggests that the resistivity can be improved by controlling film thickness.

  • To investigate the effect of injection frequency of bromobenzene on the liver damage, bromobenzene (400 mg/kg, i.p.) was given daily to rats for six days. All experimental animals were sacrificed at 24 hours after the last injection. Morphological changes of the liver were observed under a light microscopic examination. Functional changes of the liver were evaluated by the measurement of alanine aminotransferase activity. To clarify the cause of discrepancy in liver damage, hepatic glutathione (GSH) content, glutathione S-transferase (GST) and aniline hydroxylase (AH) activities were determined. In the experiments of daily bromobenzene treatments, the sacrificed animals at six day (6 time-injected animals) showed slighter liver damage than those sacrificed at 3 day (3 time-injected ones), based on the liver morphological or functional findings; the decreasing ratio of GSH content and increasing ratio of liver GST and AH activities in the 6 time-injected group were higher than those in the 3 time-injected one.

  • To evaluate the effect of intervals of bromobenzene treatment on the liver damage, the bromobenzene (400 mg/kg, i.p.) was given to rats at either one day or two days interval at three times. All the experimental animals were sacrificed at 24 hours after the last injection. Liver morphological changes were observed under a light microscopic examination and liver functional changes were determined by the measurement of alaine aminotransferase (ALT) activity and hepatic malondialdehyde (MDA) content. The experimental to examine the cause of liver damage were cytochrome P45O, glutathione (GSH) content and glutathione S-transferase (GST) activities. The results are summarized as follows; Based on the liver morphological and functional findings, the daily bromobenzene-treated rats (ED) showed the more severe liver damage than every other day bromobenzene-treated rats (EOD). The hepatic cytochrome P45O content was higher in EOD group than that in ED group. And the increasing rate of hepatic GST activity and decreasing rate of GSH content to the control were higher in EOD group than that in ED group. In conclusion, the treatment of bromobenzene intermittently to the rats may lead to more reduced liver injury compared with the continuously treated animals when both cases are treated with the same dose and frequency, and it may be caused by the enhancement of bromobenzene metabolism.

  • This paper describes the method for detecting vehicles in the rear and rear-side at night by using headlight features. A headlight is the outstanding feature that can be used to discriminate a vehicle from a dark background. In the segmentation process, a night image is transformed to a binary image that consists of black background and white regions by gray-level thresholding, and noise in the binary image is eliminated by a morphological operation. In the feature extraction process, the geometric features and moment invariant features of a headlight are defined, and they are measured in each segmented region. Regions that are not appropriate to a headlight are filtered by using geometric feature measurement. In region classification, a pair of headlights is detected by using relational features based on the symmetry of a pair of headlights. Experimental results show that this method is very applicable to an approaching vehicle detection system at nighttime.
