Power-take-off through inner dynamic system inside a floating buoy is suggested. The power take-off system is characterized by mass, stiffness, and damping and generates power through the relative heave motion between the buoy and inner mass (magnet or amateur). A systematic hydrodynamic theory is developed for the suggested WEC and the developed theory is illustrated by a case study. A vertical truncated cylinder is selected as a buoy and the optimal condition of the inner dynamic system for maximum PTO (power take off) through double resonance for the given wave condition is systematically investigated. Through the case study, it is seen that the maximum power can actually be obtained at the optimal spring and damper condition, as predicted by the developed WEC theory. However, the band-width of high performance region is not necessarily the greatest at the optimal (maximum-power-take-off) condition, so it has to be taken into consideration in the actual design of the WEC.

일반 광섬유에 아크 방전을 인가하여 코어 및 클래딩의 직경 변화를 발생시켜 장주기 격자를 제작하는 방법이 소개되었다. 본 연구에서는 매우 약한 아크를 반복적으로 발생시켜 광섬유에 매우 약한 변형을 수 차례 주어 광섬유 격자 직경을 정밀하게 조절 할 수있는 방법을 사용한 중첩 장주기 광섬유 격자 제조 방법을 제안하였다. 또한 위상정합 조건을 이용하여 장주기 광섬유 격자의 직경 변화에 따른 공진 파장의 변화를 이론적으로 유도하였으며, 실험을 통해 확인하였다. 또한 실험 결과 아크 유도 광섬유 격자의 주기와 공진 파장과의 관계가 위상 정합 조건과 일치하는 것을 확인하였으며, 온도 변화에 따른 공진 파장의 변화를 측정하고 기계적 강도를 측정하였다.

In this paper, a current-fed two-inductor bi-directional DC/DC converter using resonance (CF-TIBCR) and its design method are proposed. The CF-TIBCR has characteristics of low current ripple and a high current rating because of two separated inductors. Also, it achieves zero voltage switching for all switches and zero current switching for switches of a low voltage stage by using the resonant tank. Besides, a voltage spike problem in conventional current-fed converters is solved without the need for an additional snubber or clamping circuits. As a result, the CF-TIBCR features high step-up and high efficiency. Since the proposed converter has difficulty achieving the soft-switching condition when the converter requires the low voltage transfer ratio, a method that varies the number of resonant cycles is adopted to extend the output voltage range with satisfying the soft-switching condition. The principles of the operation characteristics are presented with a theoretical analysis, and the proposed converter is verified through results of an experiment using a laboratory prototype.

Cerebral venous sinus thrombosis (CVST) following a closed head injury in pediatric patients is a rare condition, and an early spontaneous recanalization of this condition is extremely rare. A 10-year-old boy was admitted with a mild, intermittent headache and nausea five days after a bicycle accident. The brain computed tomography showed an epidural hematoma at the right occipital area with pneumocephalus due to a fracture of the occipital skull bone. The brain magnetic resonance imaging and the magnetic resonance venography demonstrated a flow signal loss from the right sigmoid sinus to the right jugular vein. The diagnosis was sigmoid sinus thrombosis, so close observations were selected as a treatment for the patient because of his gradually improving symptoms; however, he complained of vomiting 14 days the after conservative treatment. The patient was readmitted for a further examination of his symptoms. The laboratory and the gastroenterological examinations were normal. Due to concern regarding the worsening of the sigmoid sinus thrombosis, the brain magnetic resonance venography was rechecked and it revealed the recanalization of the venous flow in the sigmoid sinus and in the jugular vein.

The use of electronic devices such as mobile phones and tablet PCs has increased of late. However, the power which is supplied through wires has a limitation of the free use of devices and portability. Magnetic-resonance wireless power transfer (WPT) can achieve increased transfer distance and efficiency compared to the existing electromagnetic inductive coupling. A superconducting coil can be applied to increase the efficiency and distance of magnetic-resonance WPT. As superconducting coils have lower resistance than copper coils, they can increase the quality factor (Q-factor) and can overcome the limitations of magnetic-resonance WPT. In this study, copper coils were made from ordinary copper under the same condition as the superconducting coils for a comparison experiment. Superconducting coils use liquid nitrogen to keep the critical temperature. As there is a difference of medium between liquid nitrogen and air, liquid nitrogen was also used in the normal conductor coil to compare the experiment with under the same condition. It was confirmed that superconducting coils have a lower reflection-coefficient($S_{11}$) than the normal conductor coils.

본 논문에서는 여름철마다 소음으로 사회적인 문제가 되고 있는 말매미 노랫소리의 음향특성과 발음 메커니즘을 연구하였다. 자연 상태에서의 노랫소리를 대상으로 파형과 FFT를 분석하였으며, 고속사진촬영으로 진동막 운동 형태를 분석하였다. 수컷 말매미의 복부 공동 (Cavity)의 공진주파수를 알기 위해 강제 공진 실험을 실시하였다. 실험 결과, 말매미의 두 진동막은 시간적으로나 형태적으로 비대칭 운동을 하며 매 진동시마다 다양한 주파수가 발생하는 것으로 관찰되었다. 또한 말매미는 약 $7{\sim}7.5 kHz$ 영역의 소리를 공명시킬 수 있는 구조를 갖는 것으로 확인되었다.

The design characteristics of circular vertical-cavity surface-emitting lasers are studied by using a newly developed equivalent network. Optical parameters, such as the stop-band or the reflectivity of periodic mirrors and the resonance wavelength, are explored for the design of these structures. To evaluate the differential quantum efficiency and the threshold current density, a transverse resonance condition of modal transmission-line theory is also utilized. This approach dramatically reduces the computational time as well as gives an explicit insight to explore the optical characteristics of circular vertical-cavity surface-emitting lasers (VCSELs).

Idiopathic hyperhidrosis is a physically and emotionally distressing symptom, which lacks a precise definition. Although operative and nonoperative methods have been shown to be effective in the treatment of idiopathic hyperhidrosis, limitations, cautions and complications are inherent in their extended use. The purpose of this report is to describe the theraputetic effects of magnetic resonance for managing idiopathic hyperhidrosis. A 28 years old woman had been suffering from profuse sweating on both planter and palmar sides for 15 years. We successfully treated this symptom with the 6 magnetic resonance treatments without any complications. Now she lives well in a condition of normal sweating after the applications. It suggest that short daily periods of exposure to appropriate magnetic resonance can beneficially modulate the balance of autonomic nervous system that are responsible for sympathetic overflow, and that there is an effective window of induced electrical magnetism in which sympathetic function can be controlled in the absence of side effects.

Unwanted vibrations are inevitably induced in other directions when pure unidirectional vibration motion is desired for the vertical scratching mechanism. Pure vertical vibration motion of the scratching machine can be obtained by driving identical two motors with symmetrically positioned eccentric unbalance masses. The desired optimal condition for driving pure vertical vibration for the scratching machine is assumed to be the resonance condition in that direction. Imposing the flexibility of the scratching machine in the horizontal direction, we can find out the amount of horizontal vibration component while maintaining the resonance in vertical direction. The desired stiffness in horizontal direction which produces the minimum vibration in horizontal direction are defined which can be used as a guide line to design the supporting structure of the scratching machine.

Lymphoplasmacyte-rich meningioma is a rare WHO Grade I subtype of meningioma. The lymphoplasmacyte-rich meningioma does not have typical imaging features of a meningioma so it can mimic intracranial inflammatory condition or brain neoplasm. We report the clinicopathologic features of lymphoplasmacyte-rich meningioma in a 35-year-old woman. She suffered from progressive headache, dizziness and tinnitus over two years. The tumor exhibited atypical neuroimaging features, including obvious peritumoral edema and irregular enhancing components. She underwent total resection and histologic examination revealed a meningioma with numerous plasma cells. Her symptoms have since resolved and there has been no evidence of tumor recurrence after one year of follow-up.
