  • Because of differences in thoughts and ideology, our country, Korea has been deprived of national unity for some thirty years of time and tide. To achieve peaceful unification, the cultivation of national strength is of paramount importance. This national strength is also essential if Korea is to take rightful place in the international societies and to have the confidence of these societies. However, national strength can never be achieved in a short time. The fundamental elements in economic development that are directly conducive to the cultivation of national strength can be said to lie in -a stable political system, -exertion of powerful leadership, -cultivation of a spirit of diligence, self-help and cooperation, -modernization of human brain power, and -establishment of a scientific and well planned economic policy and strong enforcement of this policy. Our country, Korea, has attained brilliant economic development in the past 15 years under the strong leadership of president Park Chung Hee. However, there are still many problems to be solved. A few of them are: -housing and home problems, -increasing demand for employment, -increasing demand for staple food and -the need to improve international balance of payment. Solution of the above mentioned problems requires step by step scientific development of each sector and region of our contry. As a spearhead project in regional development, the Saemaul Campaign or new village movement can be cited. The campaign is now spreading throughout the country like a grass fire. However, such campaigns need considerable encouragement and support and the means for the desired development must be provided if the regional and sectoral development program is to sucdceed. The construction of large multipurpose dams in major river basin plays significant role in all aspects of national, regional and sectoral development. It ensures that the water resource, for which there is no substitute, is retained and utilized for irrigation of agricultural areas, production of power for industry, provision of water for domestic and industrial uses and control of river water. Water is the very essence of life and we must conserve and utilize what we have for the betterment of our peoples and their heir. The regional and social impact of construction of a large dam is enormous. It is intended to, and does, dras tically improve the "without-project" socio-economic conditions. A good example of this is the Soyanggang multipurpose dam. This project will significantly contribute to our national strength by utilizing the stored water for the benefit of human life and relief of flood and drought damages. Annual average precipitation in Korea is 1160mm, a comparatively abundant amount. The catchment areas of the Han River, Keum River, and Youngsan River are $62,755\textrm{km}^2$, accounting for 64% of the national total. Approximately 62% of the national population inhabits in this area, and 67% of the national gross product comes from the area. The annual population growth rate of the country is currently estimated at 1.7%, and every year the population growth in urban area increases at a rising rate. The population of Seoul, Pusan, and Taegu, the three major cities in Korea, is equal to one third of our national total. According to the census conducted on October 1, 1975, the population in the urban areas has increased by 384,000, whereas that in rural areas has decreased by 59,000,000 in the past five years. The composition of population between urban and rural areas varied from 41%~59% in 1959 to 48%~52% in 1975. To mitigate this treand towards concentration of population in urban areas, employment opportunities must be provided in regional and rural areas. However, heavy and chemical industries, which mitigate production and employment problems at the same time, must have abundant water and energy. Also increase in staple food production cannot be attained without water. At this point in time, when water demand is rapidly growing, it is essential for the country to provide as much a reservoir capacity as possible to capture the monsoon rainfall, which concentarated in the rainy seaon from June to Septesmber, and conserve the water for year round use. The floods, which at one time we called "the devil" have now become a source of immense benefit to Korea. Let me explain the topographic condition in Korea. In northern and eastern areas we have high mountains and rugged country. Our rivers originate in these mountains and flow in a general southerly or westerly direction throught ancient plains. These plains were formed by progressive deposition of sediments from the mountains and provide our country with large areas of fertile land, emminently suited to settlement and irrigated agricultural development. It is, therefore, quite natural that these areas should become the polar point for our regional development program. Hower, we are fortunate in that we have an additional area or areas, which can be used for agricultural production and settlement of our peoples, particularly those peoples who may be displaced by the formation of our reservoirs. I am speaking of the tidelands along the western and southern coasts. The other day the Ministry of Agriculture and Fishery informed the public of a tideland reclamation of which 400,000 hectares will be used for growing rice as part of our national food self-sufficiency programme. Now, again, we arrive at the need for water, as without it we cannot realize this ambitious programme. And again we need those dams to provide it. As I mentioned before, dams not only provide us with essential water for agriculture, domestic and industrial use, but provide us with electrical energy, as it is generally extremely economical to use the water being release for the former purposes to drive turbines and generators. At the present time we have 13 hydro-electric power plants with an installed capacity of 711,000 kilowatts equal to 16% of our national total. There are about 110 potential dams ites in the country, which could yield about 2,300,000 kilowatts of hydro-electric power. There are about 54 sites suitable for pumped storage which could produce a further 38,600,000 kilowatts of power. All available if we carefully develop our water resources. To summarize, water resource development is essential to the regional development program and the welfare of our people, it must proceed hand-in-hand with other aspects of regional development such as land impovement, high way extension, development of our forests, erosion control, and develop ment of heavy and chemical industries. Through the successful implementation of such an integrated regional development program, we can look forward to a period of national strength, and due recognition of our country by the worlds societies.

  • 본 논문의 목적은 스티브 팩스톤의 작품에서 드러난 일상적 움직임 특성을 분석하는 것이다. 예술작품은 오랜 시간동안 고급문화로서 높은 계층의 사람들에게만 향유되는 특별한 대상으로서 인식되어왔다. 일상과 예술의 간극은 크게 존재해왔고 때문에 예술작품에서 일상적인 요소의 출현은 사회적 변화를 수반한 대중의 인식전환을 의미한다. 예술과 일상의 경계가 불분명해지는 시대로서 포스트모더니즘의 시대는 2차 세계대전 이후의 전후사회 그리고 후기 자본주의사회로서 급변하는 정세를 배경으로 가진다. 이 시기의 변화는 학자들에게 일상과 관련한 개념들을 학문적으로 접근하게 하는 계기가 되어졌으며 예술가들에게는 총체성을 거부하는 다원주의 성향의 포스트모더니즘의 시대정신으로서 영향을 미쳤다. 같은 시기 현대 무용역시 포스트모던댄스로의 전환기를 맞이하게 되었다. 2차 세계대전 이후 현대무용은 그 한계점에 도달한 것으로 평가되기 시작했으며 이러한 상황에서 저드슨 댄스 씨어터를 비롯한 무용가들을 필두로 포스트모던댄스는 전개되었다. 저드슨 댄스의 설립자 중 한 명인 스티브 팩스톤은 머스 커닝햄의 무용수로 활동을 하며 움직임이 생성되는 과정과 계급적인 사회구조를 지닌 무용단의 생태에 문제의식을 가지게 되었다. 이러한 그의 사고는 일상적인 동작을 그대로 작품에 실현하는 시도로서 초기 작품 활동에 드러난다. 일상적인 동작의 활용이 포스트모던댄스의 공공연한 특징으로 간주되어지고 있음에도 이에 주목한 선행연구가 드물다는 점, 그리고 팩스톤 관련 연구들은 접촉즉흥에 관련한 것으로 편향되어 있다는 것에서 본 연구는 시작되었다. 때문에 접촉즉흥 기법에 치중하기 이전 일상적인 동작의 사용으로서 작품활동을 시작한 것에 주목하여 그 연결선상으로서 이후의 작품들을 살펴볼 것이다. 본 연구는 팩스톤의 작품인 ,,를 분석하고 이를 토대로 일상적 특성을 도출하였다. 일상에 관련한 개념을 고찰하고 포스트모던댄스의 무용사적 흐름을 파악하기 위하여 관련 저서와 학술 논문, 무용기사 및 평론을 참고하여 진행하였다. 팩스톤은 무용적 정제를 거치지 않은 일상에서의 동작을 작품에 그대로 차용하였으며 그 시작으로 보행동작은 비무용수인 공연자들의 보행으로서 일상적인 움직임에 미적 의의를 부여하였다. 팩스톤이 심취한 접촉즉흥의 움직임 역시 자연스러운 에너지의 흐름을 중시하는 것으로 일상적인 측면을 지니며 이후의 작품인 에서도 그는 이완된 신체로 평범한 동작들을 선보였다. 작품에 등장한 일상적 움직임의 특성은 반복되는 삶에서의 실천과 특별하지 않은 평범한 것이라는 기준으로서 분석되었다. 그의 작품에 내재된 일상적 움직임은 한 시대의 무용장르의 변화를 비롯하여 전통적으로 유지되어온 무용예술 작품에 관한 인식의 전환을 대변하는 것이다. 파격적인 시도와 실험성으로 점철된 그의 활동은 현대무용이 지녔던 한계점을 극복하기 위한 노력으로서 보다 높게 평가 되어져야 할 것이다.

  • 암반으로 구성되어 있는 급경사($65^{\circ}{\sim}85^{\circ}$)비탈면이 장기간 안정한 상태로 유지되고 있는 자연현상을 고려할 때, 설계 및 초기 시공 단계에서 위와 유사한 지반 상태로 이루어진 깎기 암반비탈면에 대해 1:0.5(발파암 경사 기준)보다 급한 경사를 적용할 수 있을 것이다. 급경사로 설계 가능한 양호한 연속체 암반비탈면의 안정성을 검토하는 과정에서, 설계실무 측면에서 범용적인 암반강도정수 산정방법이 필요하게 되었다. Hoek 등(2002)이 수정 보완하여 발표한 Hoek-Brown 파괴기준과 GSI분류는 불연속구조의 영향을 충분히 고려한 암반특성화 시스템으로 평가되었으며, 응력변화에 따라 등가 Mohr-Coulomb 강도정수(등면적법)를 산출하는 방법을 제안하였다. 비탈면에서는 등가 M-C 강도정수가 최대구속응력(${{\sigma}^{\prime}}_{3max}$ 또는 수직응력)변화에 따라 민감하게 변화하므로 실무적으로 활용하기에 어려운 점이 있다. 이 연구에서는 양호한 연속체 암반비탈면에 대해 최대구속응력 범위이내에서 범용적으로 적용할 수 있는 강도정수산정방법(등각분할법)을 H-B 파괴기준을 응용하여 제안한다. 등각분할법 강도정수(A)의 타당성 및 적용성을 평가하기 위해, 연구대상 암반비탈면을 기존 실시설계 현장 인근에 있는 급경사 비탈면에서 암석종류별(화성암, 변성암, 퇴적암)로 선정하고, Hoek이 제시한 등가 M-C 강도정수(등면적법)들과 비교 분석하였다. 등면적법 및 등각분할법 등가 M-C 강도정수는 기본적인 자료인 기존 실시설계 현장의 실내 암석 삼축압축시험과 연구대상 암반비탈면의 불연속구조의 특성조사(Face Mapping)를 통해 RocLab 프로그램(H-B 파괴기준을 기본으로 전산화된 지반정수 산정 소프트웨어)을 활용하여 산정하였다. 산정된 등면적법 등가 M-C 강도정수는 상호 연동되어 점착력과 내부마찰각이 아주 크거나($45^{\circ}$ 이상) 작게 나타났다. 등각분할법 등가 M-C 강도정수는 등면적법 등가 M-C 강도정수의 중간 정도이며, 내부마찰각은 $30^{\circ}{\sim}42^{\circ}$의 범위를 보인다. 연구대상 암반비탈면의 등각분할법 강도정수(A)와 기존 실시 설계 현장에서 연구대상 암반비탈면과 유사한 암반상태(동일 등급 RMR)에 적용한 강도정수(B)와 비교 분석하고, 이 지반정수들로 적용한 비탈면 안정해석(한계평형해석과 유한요소해석) 결과를 통해 제안한 등각분할법의 적용성을 간접적으로 평가하였다. A와 B의 강도정수 차이는 10% 정도이다. 한계평형해석 결과(우기 기준), A적용 안전율(Fs)=14.08~58.22(평균 32.9), B적용 안전율(Fs)=18.39~60.04(평균 32.2)이며, 각 동일한 암석종류에 따라 상호 유사하게 나타났다. 유한요소 해석 결과, A적용 변위=0.13~0.65mm(평균 0.27mm), B적용 변위=0.14~1.07mm(평균 0.37mm)으로 매우 유사하다. H-B 파괴기준을 응용하여 등각분할법으로 산출한 지반 정수를 실무적인 전단강도로 적용할 수 있는 적용성 평가에서 유의미한 결과를 확인할 수 있었다.

  • 수도재배에 있어서 수량은 여러 가지 요인이 복합적으로 작용하여 나타난 반응의 산물이다. 수도의 적정재배조건을 구명하기 위하여 지금까지는 제한된 요인 및 수준에서 시험연구가 수행되어 왔는데, 처리요인수 및 각 요인당 처리수준이 증가될 경우 전체 처리수의 급증으로 시험수행이 어렵게 된다. 본 연구는 이를 극복하고자 조생량 벼 품종 '운봉벼'의 재식주수, 주당본수, 질소시비량, 이앙일, 육묘일수 등 5가지 계량적 재배요인의 최적조건을 구명하기 위한 시험을 수행하고 수량을 Box와 Wilson의 중심합성계획법에 따라 분석하였으며(시험 1), 같은 품종을 공시하여 실험 1과 같은 요인을 Finney의 부분실시법(FFD)과 비교함으로써(시험 2) CCD의 농사시험연구에의 활용가능성을 제시하고자 하였다. 1. 재배조건에 따른 수량반응 수량은 5요인중 4요인의 수준을 중심수준에서 통제하였을 때 각 요인별 최대수량은 중심수준(재식주수, 90수/3.3$m^2$ ; 주당본수, 5본 ; N시비량, 11kg/10a ; 이앙일, 6월 25일 ; 육묘일수, 35일) 부근이었고 각 요인이 양극단수준으로 갈수록 감수하였으며 5요인중 3요인을 중심수준에서 통제하고 난 뒤에 2요인들 간의 상호작용에 의한 수량은 가 수준의 중심부에서 최고치를 보였다. 전체 5개 요인의 상호작용에 의해 나타난 수량의 정상점은 안부점이었다. 2. 두 계획법의 비교 가. CCD에서 수량에 대한 각각의 정상점에서의 재배조건은, 재식주수 107주/3.3$m^2$, 주당본수 4본, 질소시비량 10kg/10a, 이앙일 6월 26일, 육묘일수 33일이었고, 정상점에서의 수량은 439kg/10a으로서 FFD에서의 그것들과 비슷하였다. 나. CCD에 의하면 요인수와 수준수가 많아도 처리조합수를 획기적으로 줄일 수 있었고, 실험재료의 절적, 작업시간의 단축 및 작업의 간편화를 가져왔다. 다. CCD(각 요인별 5수준)는 FFD(각 3수준)에 비하여 수준수가 많았지만 결과를 도해화하기에 편리하였다. 라. 양 계획법에 있어서 수량의 정상점이 안부점인 것으로 보아 요인의 설정시 각 요인 상호간의 이질성을 고려해야 하며, 처리요인의 지나친 증가도 억제되어야 할 것이다. 마. CCD는 극한수준($\pm$2, $\pm$2, $\pm$2, $\pm$2, $\pm$2)의 처리가 없기 때문에 각 요인의 극한수준의 실험영역에 대해서는 적은 정보를 얻었으나. FFD보다는 많은 유익한 정보를 획득할 수 있었다. 따라서, CCD는 획기적으로 처리수를 줄였어도 유익한 정보를 제공하는 것으로 보아, 농사시험연구에 효율적으로 활용할 수 있는 계획적으로 확인되었다.적으로 확인되었다.

  • The wall shear stress in the vicinity of end-to end anastomoses under steady flow conditions was measured using a flush-mounted hot-film anemometer(FMHFA) probe. The experimental measurements were in good agreement with numerical results except in flow with low Reynolds numbers. The wall shear stress increased proximal to the anastomosis in flow from the Penrose tubing (simulating an artery) to the PTFE: graft. In flow from the PTFE graft to the Penrose tubing, low wall shear stress was observed distal to the anastomosis. Abnormal distributions of wall shear stress in the vicinity of the anastomosis, resulting from the compliance mismatch between the graft and the host artery, might be an important factor of ANFH formation and the graft failure. The present study suggests a correlation between regions of the low wall shear stress and the development of anastomotic neointimal fibrous hyperplasia(ANPH) in end-to-end anastomoses. 30523 T00401030523 ^x Air pressure decay(APD) rate and ultrafiltration rate(UFR) tests were performed on new and saline rinsed dialyzers as well as those roused in patients several times. C-DAK 4000 (Cordis Dow) and CF IS-11 (Baxter Travenol) reused dialyzers obtained from the dialysis clinic were used in the present study. The new dialyzers exhibited a relatively flat APD, whereas saline rinsed and reused dialyzers showed considerable amount of decay. C-DAH dialyzers had a larger APD(11.70$\pm$1.32mmHg/min)compared to CF dialyzers(4.32$\pm$0.55mmHg/min)(p<0.05). However, there was no observable difference in the UFR between the two dialyzers. Neither APD nor UFR showed any significant increase with an increasing number of reuses for up to more than 20reuses. A substantial number of failures observed in APD(larger than 20mmHe/min)on the reused dialyzers(2 out of 40 CP and S out 26 C-DAK) were attributed to the Possible damage on the fibers. The CF 15-11 HFDs which failed APD test did not show changes in the UFR compared to normal dialyzers indicating that APD is a more sensitive test than UFR test to evaluate the integrity of the fibers. 30527 T00401030527 ^x For quantitative measurement of reflected light from a clinical diagnostic strip, a prototype old reflectance photometer was designed. The strip loader and cassette were made to obtain more accurate reflectance parameters. The strip was illuminated at 45˚c through optical fiber and the intensity of reflected light was determined at rectanguLat angle using a photodiode. The kubelka-munk coefficient and reflection optical density were determined ar four different wavelengths(500, 550, 570 and 610nm) for blood glucose strip. For higher concentration than 300mg/41 about glucose, a saturation state of abforbance was observed at 500, 550 and 570nm. The correlation between glucose concentration and parameters was the best at 610nm. 30535 T00401030535 ^x Radiation-induced fibrosarcoma tumors were grown on the flanks of C3H mice. The mice were divided into two groups. One group was injected with Photofrin II, intravenously (2.5mg/kg body weight). The other group received no Photofrin II. Mice from both groups were irradialed for approximately 15 minutes at 100, 300, or 500 mW/cm2 with the argon (488nm/514.5 nm), dye(628nm) and gold vapor (pulsed 628 nm) laser light. A photosensitizer behaved as an added absorber. Under our experimental conditions, the presence of Photolfrin II increased surface temperature by at least 40% and the temperature rise due to 300 mW/cm2 irradiation exceeded values for hyperthermia. Light and temperature distributions with depth were estimated by a computer model. The model demonstrated the influence of wavelength on the thermal process and proved to be a valuable tool to investigate internal temperature rise. 30536 T00401030536 ^x We investigated the structural geometry of thirty-eight Korean femurs. The purpose of this study is to identify major geometrical differences between Korean femurs 3nd others that we believe belong to Caucasians so that we would be able to get insights into the femoral component design that fits Asians including Koreans. We utilized computerized tomography (CT) images of femurs extracted from cadavers. The CT images were transformed into bitmap data by using a film scanner, and then analyzed by using a commercially available software called Image v.1.0 and a Macintosh IIci computer.The resulting data were compared with already published data. The major results show that the geometry of the Korean femurs is significantly different from that of Caucasians: (1) the anteversion angle and the canal flare index are greater by the amount of approximately 8˚ and 0.5, respectively, (2) the shape of the isthmus cross section is more round, and (3) the distance between the teaser trochanter and the proximal border of the isthmus is shelter by about 15 mm. The results suggested that the femoral component suitable for Asians should be different from the currently-used components designed and manufactured mostly by European or American companies. 30537 T00401030537 ^x It is well known that nonlinear propagation characteristics of the wave in the tissue may give very useful information for the medical diagnoisis. In this paper, a new method to detect nonlinear propagation characteristics of the internal vibration in the tissue for the low frequency mechanical vibration by using bispectral analysis is proposed. In the method, low frequency vibration of f0( = 100Hz) is applied on the surface of the object, and the waveform of the internal vibration x (t) is measured from Doppler frequency modulation of silmultaneously transmitted probing ultrasonic waves. Then, the bispectra of the signal x (t) at the frequencies (f0, f0) and (f0, 2f0) are calculated to estimate the nonlinear propagation characteristics as their magnitude ratio, w here since bispectrum is free from the gaussian additive noise we can get the value with high S/N. Basic experimental system is constructed by using 3.0 MHz probing ultrasonic waves and the several experiments are carried out for some phantoms. Results show the superiority of the proposed method to the conventional method using power spectrum and also its usefulness for the tissue characterization. 30541 T00401030541 ^x This paper describes the implementation of a computerized radial pulse diagnosis by aids of a clinical expert. On this base, we composed of the radial pulse diagnosis system in korean traditional medicine. The system composed of a radial pulse wave detection system and a radial pulse diagnosis system. With a detection system, we detected Inyoung and Cheongu radial pulse wave and processed it. Then, we have got the characteristic parameters of radial pulse wave and also quantified that according to the method of Inyoung-Cheongu Comparison Radial Pulse Diagnosis. We defined the jugement standard of radial pulse diagnosis system and then we confirmed the possibility for realization of automatic radial pulse diagnosis in korean traditional medicine. 30545 T00401030545 ^x Microspheres are expected to be applied to biomedical areas such as solid-phase immunoassays, drug delivery systems, immunomagnetic cell separation. To synthesize microspheres for biomedical application, "two stage shot growth method" was developed. The uniformity ratio of synthesized microspheres was always smaller than 1.05. And the surface charge density (or the number of ionizable functional groups) of the microspheres synthesized by "two stage shot growth method" was 6~13 times higher than that of the microspheres synthesized by conventional seeded batch copolymerization. As a previous step for biomedical application, adsorption experiments of bovine albumin on microspheres were carried out under various conditions. The maximum adsorbed amount was obtained in the neighborhood of pH 4.5. Isoelectric point of bovine albumin is pH 5.0, so experimental result shows that it shifted to acid area. The adsorption isotherm was obtained, the plateau region was always reached at 2.Og/L (bulk concentration of bovine albumin).The effect of the kind and the amount of surface functional group was also examined. 30575 T00401030575 ^x A medical image workstation was developed using multimedia technique. The system based on PC-486DX was designed to acquire medical images produced by medical imaging instruments and related audio information, that is, doctors' reporting results. Input information was processed and analyzed, then the results were presented in the form of graph and animation. All the informations of the system were hierarchically related with the image as the apex. Processing and analysis algorithms were implemented so that the diagnostic accuracy could be improved.

Trans-formation from temporal summation to two-dimensional mappings is formed by 4 nearest point inter-polaton method. Methods of representation of BEAM are two. One is dot density method which classify brain electrical potential 9 levels by dot density of gray levels and the other is colour method which classify brain electrical 12 levels by red-green colours. In this BEAM, instantaneous change and average energy distribution over any arbitrary time interval of brain electrical activity could be observed and analyzed easily. In the frequency domain, the distribution of energy spectrum of a special band can easily be distinguished normality and abnormality. 30608 T00401030608 ^x Laboratory information system (LIS) is a key tool to manage laboratory data in clinical pathology. Our department has developed an information system for routine hematology using down-sized computer system. We have used an IBM 486 compatible PC with 16MB main memory, 210 MB hard disk drive, 9 RS-232C port and 24 pin dot printer. The operating system and database management system were SCO UNIX and SCO foxbase, respectively. For program development, we used Xbase language provided by SCO foxbase. The C language was used for interface purpose. To make the system use friendly, pull-down menu was used. The system connected to our hospital information system via application program interface (API), so the information related to patient and request details is automatically transmitted to our computer. Our system interfaced with fwd complete blood count analyzers(Sysmex NE-8000 and Coulter STKS) for unidirectional data tansmission from analyzer to computer. The authors suggests that this system based on down-sized computer could provide a progressive approach to total LIS based on local area network, and the implemented system could serve as a model for other hospital's LIS for routine hematology. 30609 T00401030609 ^x To develop an artificial bone substitute that is gradually degraded and replaced by the regenerated natural bone, the authors designed a composite that is consisted of calcium phosphate and collagen. To use as the structural matrix of the composite, collagen was purified from human umbilical cord. The obtained collagen was treated by pepsin to remove telopeptides, and finally, the immune-free atelocollagen was produced: The cross linked atelocollagen was highly resistant to the collagenase induced collagenolysis. The cross linked collagen demonstrated an improved tensile strength. 30618 T00401030618 ^x This paper is a study on the design of adptive filter for QRS complex detection. We propose a simple adaptive algorithm to increase capability of noise cancelation in QRS complex detection with two stage adaptive filter. At the first stage, background noise is removed and at the next stage, only spectrum of QRS complex components is passed. Two adaptive filters can afford to keep track of the changes of both noise and QRS complex. Each adaptive filter consists of prediction error filter and FIR filter The impulse response of FIR filter uses coefficients of prediction error filter. The detection rates for 105 and 108 of MIT/BIH data base were 99.3% and 97.4% respectively. 30619 T00401030619 ^x To develop an artificial bone substitute that is gradually degraded and replaced by the regenerated natural bone, the authors designed and produced a composite that is consisted of calcium phosphate and collagen. Human umbilical cord origin pepsin treated type I atelocollagen was used as the structural matrix, by which sintered or non-sintered carbonate apatite was encapsulated to form an inorganic-organic composite. With cross linking atelocollagen by UV ray irradiation, the resistance to both compressive and tensile strength was increased. Collagen degradation by the collagenase induced collagenolysis was also decreased. 30620 T00401030620 ^x We have developed a monoleaflet polymer valve as an inexpensive and viable alternative, especially for short-term use in the ventricular assist device or total artificial heart. The frame and leaflet of the polymer valve were made from polyurethane, To evaluate the hemodynamic performance of the polymer valve a comparative study of flow dynamics past a polymer valve and a St. Jude Medical prosthetic valve under physiological pulsatile flow conditions in vitro was made. Comparisons between the valves were made on the transvalvular pressure drop, regurgitation volume and maximum valve opening area. The polymer valve showed smaller regurgitation volume and transvalvular pressure drop compared to the mechanical valve at higher heart rate. The results showed that the functional characteristics of the polymer valve compared favorably with those of the mechanical valve at higher heart rate. 30621 T00401030621 ^x Explosive evaporative removal process of biological tissue by absorption of a CW laser has been simulated by using gelatin and a multimode Nd:YAG laser. Because the point of maximun temperature of laser-irradiated gelatin exists below the surface due to surface cooling, evaporation at the boiling temperature is made explosively from below the surface. The important parameters of this process are the conduction loss to laser power absorption (defined as the conduction-to-laser power parameter, Nk), the convection heat transfer at the surface to conduction loss (defined as Bi), dimensionless extinction coefficient (defined as Br.), and dimensionless irradiation time (defined as Fo). Dependence of Fo on Nk and Bi has been observed by experiment, and the results have been compared with the numerical results obtained by solving a 2-dimensional conduction equation. Fo and explosion depth (from the surface to the point of maximun temperature) are increased when Nk and Bi are increased.To find out the minimum laser power for explosive evaporative removal process, steady state analysis has been also made. The limit of Nk to induce evaporative removal, which is proportional to the inverse of the laser power, has been obtained. 30622 T00401030622 ^x N1 and N2 gross neural action potentials were measured from the round window of the guinea pig cochlea at the onset of the acoustic stimuli. N1-N2 audiograms were made by means of regulating stimulant intensities in order to produce constant N1-N2 potentials as criteria for different input tone pip frequencies. The lowest threshold was measured with an input tone pip I5 dB SPL in intensity and 12 KHz in frequency when the animal was in normal physiological condition. The procedure of experimental measurements is explained in detail. This experimental approach is very useful for the investigation of the Cochlear function. Both noN1inear and active functions of the Cochlea can be monitored by N1-N2 audiograms. 30623 T00401030623 ^x In electrical impedance tomography(EIT), we use boundary current and voltage measurements toprovide the information about the cross-sectional distribution of electrical impedance or resistivity. One of the major problems in EIT has been the inaccessibility of internal voltage or current data in finding the internal impedance values. We propose a new image reconstruction method using internal current density data measured by NMR. We obtained a two-dimensional current density distribution within a phantom by processing the real and imaginary MR images from a 4.77 NMR machine. We implemented a resistivity mage reconstruction algorithm using the finite element method and sensitivity matrix. We presented computer simulation results of the mage reconstruction algorithm and furture direction of the research. 30624 T00401030624 ^x A new method of digital image analysis technique for discrimination of cancer cell was presented in this paper. The object image was the Thyroid eland cells image that was diagnosed as normal and abnormal (two types of abnormal: follicular neoplastic cell, and papillary neoplastic cell), respectively. By using the proposed region segmentation algorithm, the cells were segmented into nucleus. The 16 feature parameters were used to calculate the features of each nucleus. A9 a consequence of using dominant feature parameters method proposed in this paper, discrimination rate of 91.11% was obtained for Thyroid Gland cells. 30625 T00401030625 ^x An electrical stimulator was designed to induce locomotion for paraplegic patients caused by central nervous system injury. Optimal stimulus parameters, which can minimize muscle fatigue and can achieve effective muscle contraction were determined in slow and fast muscles in Sprague-Dawley rats. Stimulus patterns of our stimulator were designed to simulate electromyographic activity monitored during locomotion of normal subjects. Muscle types of the lower extremity were classified according to their mechanical property of contraction, which are slow muscle (msoleus m.) and fast muscle (medial gastrocneminus m., rectus femoris m., vastus lateralis m.). Optimal parameters of electrical stimulation for slow muscles were 20 Hz, 0.2 ms square pulse. For fast muscle, 40 Hz, 0.3 ms square pulse was optimal to produce repeated contraction. Higher stimulus intensity was required when synergistic muscles were stimulated simultaneously than when they were stimulated individually. Electrical stimulation for each muscle was designed to generate bipedal locomotion, so that individual muscles alternate contraction and relaxation to simulate stance and swing phases. Portable electrical stimulator with 16 channels built in microprocessor was constructed and applied to paraplegic patients due to lumbar cord injury. The electrical stimulator restored partially gait function in paraplegic patients. 30626 T00401030626 ^x Two-Dimensional modelling of the Cochlear biomechanics is presented in this paper. The Laplace partial differential equation which represents the fluid mechanics of the Cochlea has been transformed into two-dimensional electrical transmission line. The procedure of this transformation is explained in detail. The comparison between one and two dimensional models is also presented. This electrical modelling of the basilar membrane (BM) is clearly useful for the next approach to the further. Development of active elements which are essential in the producing of the sharp tuning of the BM. This paper shows that two-dimension model is qualitatively better than one-dimensional model both in amplitude and phase responses of the BM displacement. The present model is only for frequency response. However because the model is electrical, the two-dimensional transmission line model can be extended to time response without any difficult. 30627 T00401030627 ^x A method has been proposed for the fully automatic detection of left ventricular endocardial boundary in 2D short axis echocardiogram using geometric model. The procedure has the following three distinct stages. First, the initial center is estimated by the initial center estimation algorithm which is applied to decimated image. Second, the center estimation algorithm is applied to original image and then best-fit elliptic model estimation is processed. Third, best-fit boundary is detected by the cost function which is based on the best-fit elliptic model. The proposed method shows effective result without manual intervention by a human operator. 30628 T00401030628 ^x The intelligent trajectory control method that controls moving direction and average velocity for a prosthetic arm is proposed by pattern recognition and force estimations using EMG signals. Also, we propose the real time trajectory planning method which generates continuous accelleration paths using 3 stage linear filters to minimize the impact to human body induced by arm motions and to reduce the muscle fatigue. We use combination of MLP and fuzzy filter for pattern recognition to estimate the direction of a muscle and Hogan's method for the force estimation. EMG signals are acquired by using a amputation simulator and 2 dimensional joystick motion. The simulation results of proposed prosthetic arm control system using the EMf signals show that the arm is effectively followed the desired trajectory depended on estimated force and direction of muscle movements. 30638 T00401030638 ^x A new neural network architecture for the recognition of patterns from images is proposed, which is partially based on the results of physiological studies. The proposed network is composed of multi-layers and the nerve cells in each layer are connected by spatial filters which approximate receptive fields in optic nerve fields. In the proposed method, patterns recognition for complicated images is carried out using global features as well as local features such as lines and end-points. A new generating method of matched filers representing global features is proposed in this network. 30659 T00401030659 ^x An implementation scheme of the magnetic nerve stimulator using a switching mode power supply is proposed. By using a switching mode power supply rather than a conventional linear power supply for charging high voltage capacitors, the weight and size of the magnetic nerve stimulator can be considerably reduced. Maximum output voltage of the developed magnetic nerve stimulator using the switching mode power supply is 3, 000 volts and switching time is about 100 msec. Experimental results or human nerve stimulations using the developed stimulator are presented. 30768 T00401030768 ^x In this paper, we describe the design methodology and specifications of the developed module-based bedside monitors for patient monitoring. The bedside monitor consists of a main unit and module cases with various parameter modules. The main unit includes a 12.1" TFT color LCD, a main CPU board, and peripherals such as a module controller, Ethernet LAN card, video card, rotate/push button controller, etc. The main unit can connect at maximum three module cases each of which can accommodate up to 7 parameter modules. They include the modules for electrocardiograph, respiration, invasive blood pressure, noninvasive blood pressure, temperature, and SpO2 with Plethysmograph.SpO2 with Plethysmograph.

  • The wall shear stress in the vicinity of end-to end anastomoses under steady flow conditions was measured using a flush-mounted hot-film anemometer(FMHFA) probe. The experimental measurements were in good agreement with numerical results except in flow with low Reynolds numbers. The wall shear stress increased proximal to the anastomosis in flow from the Penrose tubing (simulating an artery) to the PTFE: graft. In flow from the PTFE graft to the Penrose tubing, low wall shear stress was observed distal to the anastomosis. Abnormal distributions of wall shear stress in the vicinity of the anastomosis, resulting from the compliance mismatch between the graft and the host artery, might be an important factor of ANFH formation and the graft failure. The present study suggests a correlation between regions of the low wall shear stress and the development of anastomotic neointimal fibrous hyperplasia(ANPH) in end-to-end anastomoses. 30523 T00401030523 ^x Air pressure decay(APD) rate and ultrafiltration rate(UFR) tests were performed on new and saline rinsed dialyzers as well as those roused in patients several times. C-DAK 4000 (Cordis Dow) and CF IS-11 (Baxter Travenol) reused dialyzers obtained from the dialysis clinic were used in the present study. The new dialyzers exhibited a relatively flat APD, whereas saline rinsed and reused dialyzers showed considerable amount of decay. C-DAH dialyzers had a larger APD(11.70${\pm}$1.32mmHg/min)compared to CF dialyzers(4.32${\pm}$0.55mmHg/min)(p<0.05). However, there was no observable difference in the UFR between the two dialyzers. Neither APD nor UFR showed any significant increase with an increasing number of reuses for up to more than 20reuses. A substantial number of failures observed in APD(larger than 20mmHe/min)on the reused dialyzers(2 out of 40 CP and S out 26 C-DAK) were attributed to the Possible damage on the fibers. The CF 15-11 HFDs which failed APD test did not show changes in the UFR compared to normal dialyzers indicating that APD is a more sensitive test than UFR test to evaluate the integrity of the fibers. 30527 T00401030527 ^x For quantitative measurement of reflected light from a clinical diagnostic strip, a prototype old reflectance photometer was designed. The strip loader and cassette were made to obtain more accurate reflectance parameters. The strip was illuminated at 45˚c through optical fiber and the intensity of reflected light was determined at rectanguLat angle using a photodiode. The kubelka-munk coefficient and reflection optical density were determined ar four different wavelengths(500,550,570 and 610nm) for blood glucose strip. For higher concentration than 300mg/41 about glucose, a saturation state of abforbance was observed at 500,550 and 570nm. The correlation between glucose concentration and parameters was the best at 610nm. 30535 T00401030535 ^x Radiation-induced fibrosarcoma tumors were grown on the flanks of C3H mice. The mice were divided into two groups. One group was injected with Photofrin II, intravenously (2.5mg/kg body weight). The other group received no Photofrin II. Mice from both groups were irradialed for approximately 15 minutes at 100,300, or 500 mW/cm2 with the argon (488nm/514.5 nm), dye(628nm) and gold vapor (pulsed 628 nm) laser light. A photosensitizer behaved as an added absorber. Under our experimental conditions, the presence of Photolfrin II increased surface temperature by at least 40% and the temperature rise due to 300 mW/cm2 irradiation exceeded values for hyperthermia. Light and temperature distributions with depth were estimated by a computer model. The model demonstrated the influence of wavelength on the thermal process and proved to be a valuable tool to investigate internal temperature rise. 30536 T00401030536 ^x We investigated the structural geometry of thirty-eight Korean femurs. The purpose of this study is to identify major geometrical differences between Korean femurs 3nd others that we believe belong to Caucasians so that we would be able to get insights into the femoral component design that fits Asians including Koreans. We utilized computerized tomography (CT) images of femurs extracted from cadavers. The CT images were transformed into bitmap data by using a film scanner, and then analyzed by using a commercially available software called Image v.1.0 and a Macintosh IIci computer.The resulting data were compared with already published data. The major results show that the geometry of the Korean femurs is significantly different from that of Caucasians: (1) the anteversion angle and the canal flare index are greater by the amount of approximately 8˚ and 0.5, respectively, (2) the shape of the isthmus cross section is more round, and (3) the distance between the teaser trochanter and the proximal border of the isthmus is shelter by about 15 mm. The results suggested that the femoral component suitable for Asians should be different from the currently-used components designed and manufactured mostly by European or American companies. 30537 T00401030537 ^x It is well known that nonlinear propagation characteristics of the wave in the tissue may give very useful information for the medical diagnoisis. In this paper, a new method to detect nonlinear propagation characteristics of the internal vibration in the tissue for the low frequency mechanical vibration by using bispectral analysis is proposed. In the method, low frequency vibration of f0( = 100Hz) is applied on the surface of the object, and the waveform of the internal vibration x (t) is measured from Doppler frequency modulation of silmultaneously transmitted probing ultrasonic waves. Then, the bispectra of the signal x (t) at the frequencies (f0, f0) and (f0, 2f0) are calculated to estimate the nonlinear propagation characteristics as their magnitude ratio, w here since bispectrum is free from the gaussian additive noise we can get the value with high S/N. Basic experimental system is constructed by using 3.0 MHz probing ultrasonic waves and the several experiments are carried out for some phantoms. Results show the superiority of the proposed method to the conventional method using power spectrum and also its usefulness for the tissue characterization. 30541 T00401030541 ^x This paper describes the implementation of a computerized radial pulse diagnosis by aids of a clinical expert.

With a detection system, we detected Inyoung and Cheongu radial pulse wave and processed it. Then, we have got the characteristic parameters of radial pulse wave and also quantified that according to the method of Inyoung-Cheongu Comparison Radial Pulse Diagnosis. We defined the jugement standard of radial pulse diagnosis system and then we confirmed the possibility for realization of automatic radial pulse diagnosis in korean traditional medicine. 30545 T00401030545 ^x Microspheres are expected to be applied to biomedical areas such as solid-phase immunoassays, drug delivery systems, immunomagnetic cell separation.

And the surface charge density (or the number of ionizable functional groups) of the microspheres synthesized by "two stage shot growth method" was 6~13 times higher than that of the microspheres synthesized by conventional seeded batch copolymerization. As a previous step for biomedical application, adsorption experiments of bovine albumin on microspheres were carried out under various conditions.

Portable electrical stimulator with 16 channels built in microprocessor was constructed and applied to paraplegic patients due to lumbar cord injury. The electrical stimulator restored partially gait function in paraplegic patients. 30626 T00401030626 ^x Two-Dimensional modelling of the Cochlear biomechanics is presented in this paper. The Laplace partial differential equation which represents the fluid mechanics of the Cochlea has been transformed into two-dimensional electrical transmission line. The procedure of this transformation is explained in detail. The comparison between one and two dimensional models is also presented. This electrical modelling of the basilar membrane (BM) is clearly useful for the next approach to the further. Development of active elements which are essential in the producing of the sharp tuning of the BM. This paper shows that two-dimension model is qualitatively better than one-dimensional model both in amplitude and phase responses of the BM displacement. The present model is only for frequency response. However because the model is electrical, the two-dimensional transmission line model can be extended to time response without any difficult. 30627 T00401030627 ^x A method has been proposed for the fully automatic detection of left ventricular endocardial boundary in 2D short axis echocardiogram using geometric model. The procedure has the following three distinct stages. First, the initial center is estimated by the initial center estimation algorithm which is applied to decimated image. Second, the center estimation algorithm is applied to original image and then best-fit elliptic model estimation is processed. Third, best-fit boundary is detected by the cost function which is based on the best-fit elliptic model. The proposed method shows effective result without manual intervention by a human operator. 30628 T00401030628 ^x The intelligent trajectory control method that controls moving direction and average velocity for a prosthetic arm is proposed by pattern recognition and force estimations using EMG signals. Also, we propose the real time trajectory planning method which generates continuous accelleration paths using 3 stage linear filters to minimize the impact to human body induced by arm motions and to reduce the muscle fatigue. We use combination of MLP and fuzzy filter for pattern recognition to estimate the direction of a muscle and Hogan's method for the force estimation. EMG signals are acquired by using a amputation simulator and 2 dimensional joystick motion. The simulation results of proposed prosthetic arm control system using the EMf signals show that the arm is effectively followed the desired trajectory depended on estimated force and direction of muscle movements. 30638 T00401030638 ^x A new neural network architecture for the recognition of patterns from images is proposed, which is partially based on the results of physiological studies. The proposed network is composed of multi-layers and the nerve cells in each layer are connected by spatial filters which approximate receptive fields in optic nerve fields. In the proposed method, patterns recognition for complicated images is carried out using global features as well as local features such as lines and end-points. A new generating method of matched filers representing global features is proposed in this network. 30659 T00401030659 ^x An implementation scheme of the magnetic nerve stimulator using a switching mode power supply is proposed. By using a switching mode power supply rather than a conventional linear power supply for charging high voltage capacitors, the weight and size of the magnetic nerve stimulator can be considerably reduced. Maximum output voltage of the developed magnetic nerve stimulator using the switching mode power supply is 3,000 volts and switching time is about 100 msec. Experimental results or human nerve stimulations using the developed stimulator are presented. 30768 T00401030768 ^x In this paper, we describe the design methodology and specifications of the developed module-based bedside monitors for patient monitoring. The bedside monitor consists of a main unit and module cases with various parameter modules. The main unit includes a 12.1" TFT color LCD, a main CPU board, and peripherals such as a module controller, Ethernet LAN card, video card, rotate/push button controller, etc. The main unit can connect at maximum three module cases each of which can accommodate up to 7 parameter modules. They include the modules for electrocardiograph, respiration, invasive blood pressure, noninvasive blood pressure, temperature, and SpO2 with Plethysmograph.

  • 벼줄무늬잎마름바이러스(Rice stripe virus, RSV)에 대하여 유전자 진단기술인 RT-PCR과 VC/RT-PCR 기술을 개발하였다. ELISA 진단법은 유묘 검정법 보다 평균 40.5%, RT-PCR 진단법은 ELISA 진단법 보다 21%의 진단 효율이 높았다. 2009년 경기도 김포, 평택, 시흥 지역에서 채집한 애멸구의 보독충률을 VC/RT-PCR 진단법과 ELISA 진단법으로 검정한 결과 전체 평균 보독충률은 9.2%로 동일하였다. 벼줄무늬잎마름바이러스가 감염된 벼 포장에서 수집한 13개 분리주의 유전자 유연성은 RNA1과 RNA2는 중국+한국, 중국+한국+일본의 2개의 군으로 구분되었다. 또한 병원성 발현에 관여하는 RNA3는 중국, 중국+한국, 한국+일본의 3개 군으로, RNA4는 중국, 한국, 중국+한국+일본, 한국+일본의 4개의 군으로 구분되었다. 경기도 등 7개 도의 주요 28개의 재배지역에서 채집한 애멸구의 전국 평균 보독충률은 2008년 4.3%, 2009년 6.1%, 2010년 7.2%로 매년 상승하였다. 2008년에는 경기도가 11.3%로 가장 높았으며, 2009년에는 전라남도가 20.1%, 2010년에는 경기도 12.0%, 충청북도 14.2%로 가장 높았다. 보독충률이 가장 높았던 지역은 2008년에는 전북 부안 지역이 22.1%, 2009년에는 전남 완도와 진도가 36%, 2010년에는 충북 보은이 30.0%였다. 월동 애멸구의 전국 평균 밀도는 2008년 13.1 마리, 2009년 13.9 마리, 2010년 5.6 마리였으며, 월동 애멸구의 밀도는 전북 부안 지역이 2008년 39.1 마리, 2009년 60.4 마리로 가장 높았으며, 2010년에는 경기 평택 지역이 14.0 마리로 가장 높았다. 2008년 RSV 발생은 전남 진도, 해남 지역을 중심으로 869 ha가 발생하였으며, 2009년에는 전국적으로 21,541 ha가 발생하였으며, 특히 서해안 지역의 경우 경기도, 인천시, 충남, 전북, 전남의 19개 시군, 39개 읍면, 53개 리에서 3,025 포장을 조사한 결과 55.2%가 부분 고사 이상의 피해가 발생하였다. 2008년부터 3년간 전북 부안, 전남 진도 등에서 월동 애멸구의 시기별 발육을 조사한 결과 5월 20일에서 6월 10일 경에는 월동 후 1세대는 대부분 3령과 4령 이었으며 성충은 6월 하순경에 최성기였다. 2009년 5월 31에서 6월 1일에 태안, 서산, 부안, 신안, 진도 등에서 공중 포충망에 채집한 애멸구는 모두 성충이었으며 밀도는 태안 지역이 963 마리, 서천 919 마리, 신안 819 마리 등으로 매우 많이 포획되었으며, 공중 포충망에 채집된 애멸구는 국내에서 월동한 애멸구 집단이 아니고 중국에서 비래한 애멸구 집단으로 확인되었다. 2010년에는 5월 중순에서 6월 중순까지 공중 포충망에 애멸구 성충이 거의 채집되지 않았다. 2009년 충남 홍성, 전북 부안, 전남 영광 등 서해안 8개 지역의 공중 포충망에서 채집한 애멸구 성충의 RSV 보독충률은 2.1%에서 9.5%로 변이가 컸으며, 보령이 9.5%로 가장 높았으며, 다음으로 충남 홍성 7.9%, 전남 영광 6.5%, 충남 태안 6.4%였다. 애멸구 비래 후 약 10일 후에 공중 포충망 주변의 논에 심겨진벼에 대하여 RSV의 유전자 진단 결과 태안 84.6%, 부안 65.4%, 진도 92.9% 이었으며, 평균 감염률은 81% 이었다. 보리는 RSV의 주요 월동 기주식물로 알려져 있으나 RSV의 감염률은 경기 평택 등 전국에서 530점을 채집하여 유전자 진단 결과 감염률이 0.2%로 매우 낮았다. RSV의 새로운 자연 기주식물로 29종이 확인되었다. 하계 일년생 식물은 조개풀 등 13종, 동계 일년생은 들묵새 등 11종, 다년생으로는 우산잔디 등 5종 이었다. RSV 감염률은 동계 일년생인 들묵새 24.9%, 하계 일년생인 바랭이 44.9%, 물피 95.2%, 가을강아지풀 65.5%이었으며, 다년생인 물억새는 33.3%였다. RSV에 감수성인 동진1호 등 8개 품종과 저항성인 삼광벼 등 17개 품종에 대하여 2009년 부안, 익산, 김제 지역의 자연 포장에서 병징 발현 여부를 조사한 결과 감수성 8개 품종은 모두 감수성이었으며, 진성 저항성 품종 중 온누리 등 12개 품종은 감수성이었으며 삼광벼 등 5개 품종은 포장 저항성이었다. RSV에 저항성인 남평벼 등 4 품종과 감수성인 동진1호 등 3 품종을 대상으로 바이러스를 인공접종한 결과 RSV의 병징 발현률은 감수성 품종의 경우 평균 53.3%이었으며 저항성 품종의 경우 평균 34.0%로 19.3% 낮았다. 감수성인 흑남벼와 저항성인 남평벼를 이용하여 병징 발현률과 바이러스 감염률을 조사한 결과 병징 발현률은 흑남벼 28%, 남평벼 12%로 감수성 품종이 병징 발현률이 2배 이상 높았다. 그러나 체내 바이러스 감염률은 흑남벼 85%, 남평벼 97%로 오히려 저항성 품종에서 12%의 높은 감염률을 보였다. 저항성 품종에서의 저항성 기작은 병징 발현에 대한 저항성이며 바이러스 증식에서는 저항성이 아니었다. RSV에 저항성 품종인 남평벼, 온누리와 감수성 품종인 동진1호, 운광벼를 이용하여 생육시기별로 인공접종하여 수량 감소를 2008년부터 3년간 조사한 결과 감수성 품종에서는 주당 수량을 보면 유묘기 감염시 7.8 g, 분얼기 감염시 8.5 g, 최고 분얼기 감염시 13.8 g으로 무처리에 비하면 수량 감소율이 유묘기 51%, 분얼기 46%, 최고 분얼기 13%로 일찍 감염될수록 수량 감소 영향이 컷다. 저항성 품종에서는 시기별 감염과 수량 감소가 통계적으로 상관이 없었다. 자연 발병된 농가 포장에서 운광 품종을 대상으로 태안과 진도지역에서 조사한 결과 발병경률 23.4% 이상이면 발병경률의 증가에 따라서 상관계수 0.94로 수량 감소율도 동일하게 증가하였다.

  • 본 연구는 편액과 시문이 과거 누정원림의 고유한 입지 및 조영 특성 추론의 중요한 준거(準據)가 된다는 전제 하에, 요월정원림(邀月亭園林)을 대상으로 과거 시점의 입지 및 조영 해석을 고구(考究)하기 위해 시도되었다. 요월정원림이 갖는 의미와 문화재적 위상과 가치의 진정성 제고 및 보존의 당위성을 논의할 목적으로 시도된 연구결과는 다음과 같다. 첫째, 요월정원림은 정원주 김경우(金景遇)를 비롯한 당대 거유들이 교유한 시율풍류의 현장이었다. "조선환여승람 호남읍지(湖南邑誌) 장성읍지(長城邑誌)" 등 고문헌을 통해 사화(士禍)를 피해 머문 은신처로서의 성격과 함께 지역정체성을 형성한 교두보로서의 장소성이 확인되었다. 또한 "요월정원운(邀月亭原韻)"을 통해 누정원림 작정(作庭) 의도 및 조영 동기를 확인한 바, 요월정원림은 세속과 탈속 그리고 현실과 이상이 뒤섞여 길항(拮抗)한 공간으로 해석된다. 둘째, 당호 요월(邀月)은 누정에서 조망했을 때의 승경적 요인 및 자연현상과 관련된 명칭으로, 마주한 '월봉산에 뜨는 달을 맞이함'을 함의하는 어휘로, 이는 자연의 섭리이자 풍류로서 탈속의 이미지와 맞닿아 있다. 즉 요월정은 세속의 희비를 벗어나 자연의 섭리를 따르려한 조영 의도를 반영한 당호로 해석된다. 셋째, 요월정원림의 입지는 "영광속수여지승람(靈光續修輿地勝覽)"을 통해 조영자가 퇴관 후 휴식을 위해 마련한 처소였으며, 월봉산을 마주하여 황룡강(黃龍江)이 굽이쳐 흐르던 승경지였음을 고문헌과 다수의 시문을 통해 확인하였다. 특히, 수호인 인터뷰에 따르면 요월정원림에서 야경의 시지각 빈도(頻度)는 수호인 거처인 고직사에서 요월정을 향해 황룡강 방향인 동쪽을 숙시각(熟視角)으로 조망했을 때가 가장 높다고 한다. 또한 시지각 강도(强度)가 가장 높고 아름다운 풍경은 요월정 좌측 배후면에서 달이 부상하여 요월정 전면(前面)의 배롱나무동산을 가로질러 요월정과 마주한 월봉산 사이에 남중한 때로 증언한 바 있다. 현재 요월정원림의 좌향은 $SE\;141.2^{\circ}$로서 거의 남동향 하고 있는데, 이와 같은 요월정 좌향 설정은 지형조건뿐 아니라 달의 궤적을 유상(遊賞)하기에 최적화된 방향과 시계(視界)를 확보하기 위한 기도(企圖)가 담겼다고 판단된다. 나아가 전면의 황룡강 수면 위로 남중한 달빛이 투영됨으로써, 하늘의 달과 황룡강 강물에 투영된 달이 동시에 감지되게끔 고려된 것으로 추론된다. 넷째, 현재 요월정원림은 요월정과 광산김씨문숙공파종회각(光山金氏文肅公派宗會閣) 및 고직사(庫直舍)로 구성된 '내원 권역'과 진입부를 아우른 배롱나무동산 및 소나무 배후림이 포함된 '외원 권역'으로 구분된다. 나아가 '용소 및 수생식물원 권역' 및 최근 조성된 '황룡정과 공원 권역'으로 외연(外緣)이 확산되면서 교란되고 변용되었다. 다섯째, 조영 당시 요월정원림은 누정에서 조망한 풍경을 안아 들여 누정을 중심으로 지근거리의 일정한 자연을 점유한 방식인 '경계 없는 산수원림'이었으나, 현재 복합경관은 과거 원형경관과는 괴리된 '이질화 분절화 파편화된' 경관으로 파악된다. 마지막으로, 요월정원림이 문화재지정보호구역임을 감안할 때, 편액과 기문에 묘사된 완전한 원형경관으로의 복원은 아니더라도 최소한 원림권역에서의 경관적 악영향과 시각적 훼손을 최소화하기 위한 대책수립이 요망된다.

  • P. japonica가 분류학에서 말하는거와 같이 리웅이주가 않이고 이형호장물이라는 것을 훌견하고 수년간 이 식물의 장주화개체, 단주화개체간의 화기의 형태, 수정력, 화분관의 행동 및 L, S주의 화분의 임, 불임등을 조사해 보았드니 이 식물은 이형수장물중에서도 L, S주간의 분화가 가장 심하게 되어 있어 일부기관이나 기능은 웅웅이주와 같이 변해버린 특수한 이형수장물이라는 것이 명백히 되었고 이 장물은 장물조포체세대의 성의 분화가 생기는데 이형현상을 거쳐서 되는 경우도 있지 않나 하는 것을 가정케하는 한 증거가 될수 있다고 생각된다. 또한 여뀌과의 다른 이형예장물인 F. esculentum이나 P. senticosa와 비교해 보면 이 장물이 가장 L, S 주간의 분화가 심하고 F. esculentum은 중간, P. senticosa는 가장 미분화상태에 있어 삼종외 여뀌과 이형예장물간에 그 분화의 정도에 gradation이 생겨 있다. 이제 실험결과릎 요약하면 다음과 같다. 1) P. japonica는 화주장, 화사장, 등의 제일차의 형태적 차이뿐만 않이라 제이차적 형이도 대단히 심한 Dimorphism을 나타내고 있다. 2) L, S주의 화기의 차이는 동과의 타이형예작물에 비해 극경호 분화되어 있다. 3) L, S주의 웅예를 보면 S주는 대단히 발달되어 있는 반면에 L주의 웅예는 애예된것 같은 느낌을 주고 있다. 4) 적법수분에 의하면 L, S주가 다 결실이 잘 되지만 불적법수분에서는 수정결실이 전혀 안된다. 수정생리상으로도 뚜렷한 이형예작물이다. 5) 자가가임의 성질 또는 동형화간의 수정력은 완전히 상실하고 있다. 여뀌과의 타이형예작물과는 이 점에 차이가 심하다. 6) 자연상태하에 있어서는 S주는 결실이 거이 안되어 마치 \ulcorner주와와 같은 외관을 나태내고 있다. 7) 인공수분에서는 $L{\times}S$$S{\times}L$ 주 수정결실이 다 되어 S주의 행동은 자연상태하에서 와는 대단히 상이하다. 8) L주에 비해 S주는 수정후 용과가 더 심하다. 9) 화분관의 행동은 수정력과 완전히 일치된다. 즉 L-selfing, $L{\times}L$, S-selfing, $S{\times}S$등의 부적법 수분에서는 화분관은 화주의 미중에서 정지되지만 $L{\times}S$, $S{\times}L$,에서는 수분 약 40-50분 후이면 화분관은 자방까지 도달된다. 10) S주는 웅본으로 오인되어 있지만 인위적법수분을 하면 수정력이나 화분관의 행동은 L주에서와 동일하다. 11) S화분은 완전하지만 L화분은 약 70%가 내용공허한 Adortive pollen 이다. 12) L화분중 나머지 30%도 S화분에 비해서 염색도가 낮은것이 많고 S화분 같이 농염되는 것은 극히 소수이다. 13) 본장물은 분화가 고도로 진행된 전형적인 이형예작물이여 마치 Dimorphism 에서 Dioecious 에로 이행되는 수가 있다는 것을 표시하는 증거가 되는 것 같다.
