The technique for measuring the rotational speed of tappet in direct acting type valve train system has been developed. The optic signal monitoring system with laser and optic fiber was designed to follow the signal of tappet rotation. The system was based on ON/OFF signal generation from the additional encoder teeth under the tappet with optic fibers attached photo transistor. The data showed that tappet rotation was affected by offset, oil temperature and cam shaft operating speed. Also it was found that tappet rotation increases with oil temperature. Tappet spin was delayed 10∼s20$^{\circ}$ cam angle after valve opening. The instantaneous rotational speed of tappet was reciprocal to cam shaft speed and the tappet and the cam angle ratio was located in the range of 0.1∼0.3.

The solenoid valve in ABS hydraulics, modulator is a two directional on-off valve and is controlled by around 100Hz high speed pulse width modulation. When the inlet valve is switched from open state to closed state, there are braking force degration, noise and vibration due to pressure surge phenomena in the hydraulic line and wheel cylinder. In this study, identifies pressure surge phenomenon in the braking process of a ABS, and investigates the way to reduce the phenomenon. For the purpose theoretical analysis on the pressure surge in the closed state hydraulic line, characteristic curve method based on wave equation was utilized. During this analysis, we could find pressure surge characteristics change due to hydraulic line change and PWM control conditions. In conclusion, by using the results of this study for the pressure surge prediction and reduction method, we could expect braking performance enhancement in Anti-Lock Braking System.

In this study, the pneumatic servo valve was developed, and the study results could be summarized as follows; 1. A servo solenoid was designed, and its electromagnetic field was interpreted and the system's transient response was identified by using a commercial analysis program. 2. A program for analysis the flow in the spool was developed, and a study was conducted on the flow rate of the nozzle depending upon the pressure ratio between the upstream pressure and the downstream pressure, when the valve is fully opened in the spool and the flow force depending upon a displacement of the spool in the valve. 3. A PWM analog controller was designed and manufactured in...

The results of the clinical observations on the 76 cases of the mitral valvular heart disease treated in the Department of Thoracic and Cardiovascular Surgery, Chung-nam National University Hospital during the period of 3 years from June, 1983 to July, 1986, are as follows: l. Of 76 cases, 43 were male and 33 were female with sex ratio of 1.3:1. 2. The age of the patient varied widely from 12 years of the youngest to 60 years of the oldest. 3. The main clinical symptoms on admission were dyspnea on exertion[100%], palpitation[42%], generalized weakness[29%], indigestion[18%], hemoptysis[16%]. 4. The preoperative functional levels according to NYHA classification were class II, III, IV in 9%, 63%, 28% respectively. 5. All 76 patients were operated on under direct vision using extracorporeal circulation, open mitral commissurotomy was done in 15 cases, mitral valve replacement in 37 cases, mitral valve replacement and aortic valve replacement in 11 cases, mitral valve replacement and tricuspid annuloplasty in 8 cases. 6. The operative mortality was 11.8% and results of the operation were good and excellent in 65 cases of survivors.

In order to decrease fuel comsumption rate and emissions, lean burn engine which has equipped swirl control valve, is investigated experimentally on the test bench. Single cylinder engine was used to test the combustion and emission performance with 4 kinds of swirl valve. Decrease in the carbon monoxide, hyerocarbon and specific fuel consumption was shown at the lean condition, which means that a good choice of swirl valve on the given intake port geometry can be used to increase the combustion efficiency and lean limit.

A computer program was developed to predict swirling steady axisymmetric turbulent flows by extending TEACH Code. It was applied to a reciprocating engine cylinder with a intake valve on the flat head. Flows were assumed to be steady and swirling. Effects of Reynolds number, the valve lift, and the swirl ratio on flow patterns and turbulence were investigated numerically. Flow patterns were reasonably predicted in comparison with experimental results. Length of the recirculation zone was shortened with increasing valve lifts and swirl ratios. Static pressure distributions show maximum value near the reattachment point of the incoming circular jet and minimum value near the maximum width of the valve attached recirculation zone.

The Equations of inherent flow coefficient are different from compressible to incompressible flow. The paper has been conducted to measure the inherent flow coefficient of solenoid valve under various flows. Experimental results for compressible and incompressible flow were confirmed to inherent flow coefficient correctly. The value of inherent flow coefficient for the 0.5" solenoid valve is about 2. Dynamic characteristics of a solenoid valve, which plays an important role in real model, have been analysed by AMESim simulator modeling.

Here, we describe a dual spin valve structure with distinct switching fields for two pinned layers. A device with this structure has a staircase of three distinct magnetoresistive states. The multiple resistance states are achieved by controlling the exchange coupling between two ferromagnetic pinned layers and two adjacent anti-ferromagnetic pinning layers. The maximum magnetoresistance ratio is 7.9% for the current-perpendicular-to-plane and 7.2% for the current-in-plane geometries, with intermediate magnetoresistance ratios of 3.9% and 3.3%, respectively. The requirements for using this exchange-biased stack as a three-state memory device are also discussed.

The purpose of this research is to derive the principal design parameters governing the dynamic characteristics of the high response flow control servo valve. For this purpose, a numerical modeling of the servo valve system and a parameter sensitivity analysis to a frequency response characteristics were performed. As a result of these analysis, a basis for improvement of a dynamic characteristics of servo valve was arranged.

Radiographic left atrial dimension (RLAD) is a useful measurement to assess left atrial enlargement in dogs. There are studies on the use of RLAD on various breeds of dogs, but no study on a specific breed with myxomatous mitral valve disease (MMVD). This study was conducted to compare RLAD measurements in Maltese dogs with MMVD ACVIM stage B1 and B2, and also to investigate the correlation of RLAD with the LA:Ao ratio. A total of 29 Maltese dogs were the subjects of this study. Each dog was diagnosed with MMVD ACVIM stage B1 or B2 based on physical examination, thoracic radiography, and echocardiography. The vertebral heart size (VHS), RLAD, LVIDDn, and LA:Ao ratio were measured and compared to evaluate the differences. There were significant differences in the RLAD, LVIDDn, and LA:Ao ratio between dogs with MMVD ACVIM stage B1 and those with stage B2. There was a significant correlation between the LA:Ao ratio and both the RLAD and VHS measurements, but the correlation coefficient was higher for RLAD. The RLAD scores exhibited a significant difference between dogs with ACVIM Stage B1 and with those with B2, and these scores had a higher correlation with the LA:Ao ratio measured by echocardiography than with VHS.
