Purpose: The purpose of this study is to investigate the change and correlation of pulse energy in Left and Right Chon, Kwan, Cheok during menstruation, especially around menstruation start date. Methods: The subjects of this experiment were 8 healthy women whose menstruation periods are regular. We measured 3D Blood Pressure Pulse Analyzer (3D-MAC) tests before and after menstruation start date. Results: The results were as follows 1. The pulse energy of the Right Chon was significantly decreased and Left Kwan was comparatively increased during the next day of menstruation start date than previous day. 2. There was a negative correlation between Left Kwan and Left Cheok, Right Chon and Right Kwan pulse energy during the previous and menstruation start date. The negative correlation disappeared between Right Chon and Right Kwan at the next day of menstruation start date. Conclusions: The results suggest that Chon, Kwan, Cheok pulse energy changes are related to menstruation and reflect physiological mechanism of menstruating women. Further study will be needed.

In this paper, we define the mean life process for the right censored data and show the asymptotic equivalence between two kinds of the mean life processes. We use the Kaplan-Meier and Susarla-Van Ryzin estimates as the estimates of survival function for the construction of the mean life processes. Also we show the asymptotic equivalence between two mean residual life processes as an application and finally discuss some difficulties caused by the censoring mechanism.

For the purpose of determining neurophysiological mechanism of math anxiety, we conducted an EEG measurement for 22 sixth grade elementary students including 11 students with high math anxiety (HMA group), and 11 students with low math anxiety (LMA group). We found that in HMA group, delta wave was significantly generated from the right frontal lobe, and in LMA group, four paths are clearly connected while they perform math tasks (right inferior occipital gyrus ${\leftrightarrow}$ left superior parietal lobule /left middle frontal gyrus ${\leftrightarrow}$ left inferior parietal lobule /left middle frontal gyrus ${\leftrightarrow}$ right inferior parietal lobule / right middle frontal gyrus ${\leftrightarrow}$ right inferior parietal lobule). According to the above results we suggest that math anxiety is related to emotions associated with pain, reduces working memory and has a negative effect on math performance.

In this paper, analysis results on the failure of slope behind a Plant Complex of Gimhae due to typhoon Rusa in 2002 are introduced. The left side of the slope was reinforced by soil nails and the right side of the slope was going to construct slope reinforcement works. In the slope failure, the damage area is about $34,000m^2$, the lower width of slope failure is about 230m, the upper width of slope failure is about 50m, and the height of slope failure is about 120m. The elevation of a bedrock in the right side of the slope was lower than the left side of the slope. Due to the depth of weathered soils and weathered rocks in right side of the slope was thick, it will be expected that the effects of pore-water pressure during the rainfalls are large. For the analysis of the failure mechanism, 3-dimensional numerical analysis was carried out by FLAC-3D.

The neuropathic pains are not well controlled by common analgesics and opioid drugs in terminal cancer patients. The types of these pains are divided within the two cages, one is due to continuous central sensitization and the other is due to paroxymal peripheral sensitization. The mechanism of continuous central sensitization is the activity of dorsal horn neurones that are activated by C-fiber input. The tricyclic antidepressants, non-tricyclic antidepressants, and oral local anaesthesia probably produce analgesic effects in neuropathic pains through suppression of this activity. The mechanism of paroxymal peripheral sensitization is the hyper-excitability of peripheral neurones. The neuropathic pains due to peripheral sensitization respond relatively the anticonvulsants and baclofen that stabilize membranes and suppress paroxymal electrical discharge. The patients was a 38-year-old female who complained of hyperthemia on upper right extremity. The symptom of this patient was improved with anticonvulsant(dilantin 600mg).

Gas forming brain abscess is a rare disease caused by Klebsiella pneumoniae occurring in patients with impaired host defense mechanism such as diabetes mellitus or liver cirrhosis. A 59-year-old man with 2-year history of diabetes mellitus and 20-year history of liver cirrhosis presented to the hospital with headache. On the day after admission, severe headache was developed and he deteriorated rapidly. Brain CT showed a non-enhanced mass including multiple air density as well as surrounding edema seen in the right occipital lobe, and isodensity air-fluid level seen in the right lateral ventricle. Despite emergent ventricular drainage and intraventricular and intravenous administration of antibiotics, his condition progressively worsened to sepsis and to death after 5 days. Bacterial culture of blood and ventricular fluids disclosed a Gram (-) rod, Klebsiella pneumoniae. In this report we review the pathogenic mechanism and its management.

In this paper, forced vibration was used to regulate the droplet migration, fully recording the transient migration of droplets on a micro-textured substrate under the resonance frequency by a high-speed camera. The influence of resonance frequency and dynamic migration characteristics of droplets on the solid micro-texture surface under lateral vibration were researched. The experiment demonstrates that the driving force is caused by the difference between the left and right contact angles made the droplet oscillate and migrate, and as time t increases, the left and right contact points are periodically shifted and the amplitude of migration increases. Therefore, based on the droplet migration behavior and its force balance mechanism, a spring vibration model of migration behavior of the vibrating droplet micro unit was set up to predict the complete trajectory of its migration on a solid surface. The calculation results show that the theoretical displacement is less than the experimental displacement, and the longer the time, the larger the difference. Affected by the vibration, part of the droplet permeates through the micro-texture, resulting in the droplet losing height and the contact angle becoming smaller as well. While the other part of droplet overcomes the internal surface tension to migrate.

A new soft finger mechanism using a spring as a backbone is proposed in this work. It is a 4 DOF mechanism that consists of a spring and 3 cylinders, which behave like joints with 3 up-and-down rotations and 1 left-and-right rotation. To control each joint, cylinders have small holes in their cross-sectional areas, and wires of different length are penetrated into these holes. We can control each joint by pulling the corresponding wire. The forward kinematics is solved by using the geometry of mechanism. And the relationship (Jacobian) between the linear velocity of the wires and the joint angular rate is obtained. A virtual simulator is developed to test the validity of the kinematic model. In the experiment, first, the position control is conducted by tracking a given trajectory. Second, to verify the flexibility and safety, we show that the soft finger deflects in a safe manner, in spite of the collision with environment.

A video deck mechanism is composed of various cams, links, and gears, and it requires precise movement. So kinematic motion between parts should be considered to get desired movement depending on the timing chart which defines movement of each part to get desired mode. Also dynamic effects should be considered to get right tape tension and to estimate motor force required to obtain accurate motion. The design process of the deck mechanism of VCR is explained briefly. The loading block of the deck mechanism is divided into a tape translational group and a brake control group. Each group is modeled for kinematic and dynamic analysis. Finally, two groups are combined together to analyze the loading block of the deck mechanism. Results are used to understand and modify an existing design.
