The initial strain, the applied stress exponent, the activation energy, and rupture time in AZ31 magnesium alloy have been measured in order to predict the deformation mechanism and rupture life of creep over the temperature range of 423-443K. Creep tests were carried out under constant applied stress and temperature, and the lever type tester and automatic temperature controller was used for it, respectively. The experimental results showed that the applied stress exponent was about 9.74, and the activation energy for creep, 113.6KJ/mol was less than that of the self diffusion of Mg alloy including aluminum. From the results, the mechanism for creep deformation seems to be controlled by cross slip at the temperature range of 423-443K. Also the higher the applied stress and temperature, the higher the initial strain. And the rupture time for creep decreased as quadratic function with increasing the initial strain in double logarithmic axis.

This paper introduces a technique to obtain the broadband characteristics of circularly polarized antennas using an L-shaped probe. A waveguide antenna is suitable for obtaining high gain and handling convenience in some applications; however, the asymmetrical structure of the L-shaped probe results in cross-polarization and frequency dependence on the field distribution of higher-order modes (HOM). In addition to the basic characteristics of a waveguide antenna with an L-shaped probe, the author discusses some techniques to reduce the HOM and cross-polarization. As a result, the 3-dB axial ratio (AR) is obtained with the fundamental mode even when the frequency is expanded to the region for HOM of TM. This reduction is mainly due to the cutoff structure to the TM mode around the short wall of the waveguide. Furthermore, some aperture modification techniques can reduce the cross-polarization in a wide range of angles in the radiation pattern. Such techniques and their mechanisms are discussed in this paper. The obtained performance shows that the proposed antennas have a wide range of angles of 3-dB AR in the radiation pattern, broadband characteristics in impedance and AR, and low variation in group velocity.

We developed a highly efficient organic photovoltaic (OPV) cell with a poly[4,8-bis(5-(2-ethylhexyl)thiophen-2-yl)benzo[1,2-b;4,5-b']dithiophene-2,6-diyl-alt-(4-(2-ethylhexyl)-3-fluorothieno[3,4-b]thiophene-)-2-carboxylate-2-6-diyl)]:[6,6]-phenyl-C71-butyric acid methyl ester active layer for harvesting lower-intensity indoor light energy to power various self-powered sensor systems that require power in the microwatt range. In order to achieve higher power conversion efficiency (PCE), we first optimized the thickness of the active layer of the OPV cell through optical simulations. Next, we fabricated an OPV cell with optimized active layer thickness. The device exhibited a PCE of 12.23%, open circuit voltage of 0.66 V, short-circuit current density of 97.7 ㎂/cm², and fill factor of 60.53%. Furthermore, the device showed a maximum power density of 45 ㎼/cm², which is suitable for powering a low-power (microwatt range) sensor system.

Microstructure of the Fe-Ti system by ion beam mixing of multilayers at 300 K and 77 K has been studied in a wide composition range. The ion bombardment was carried out using $Ar^+$ ions at 80 keV. Using grazing angle x-ray diffraction we find that the lattice parameters of these bcc solid solutions are very close to that of $\alpha$-Fe. Extended x-ray absorption fine-structure spectroscopy have been performed to investgate the short-range order in the ion-beam-mixed state. The structure parameters, such as the interatomic distance and the coordination number are estmated from the Fe K-edge Fourier filtered EXAFS spectra. The interatomic distance is independent of the alloy concentration and it is almost constant. The study of x-ray absorption near-edge structure gives information on the individual $\rho$components of the partial densityof states of the conduction band of the Fe and Ti We also find that a charge transfer from Ti to Fe atoms takes place.

Purpose: This study aimed to investigate changes in upper extremity joints and leisure satisfaction in children with brain lesions through sports stacking activities. Methods: A sports stacking program was conducted on three children with brain lesions who had upper extremity joint limitations and joint range of motion lower than the normal range. It was conducted 10 times, 1 to 2 times a week, 40 minutes each time. Upper extremity joint angles were measured using a goniometer in the order of shoulder, elbow, wrist, and fingers, and leisure satisfaction was measured using a smile evaluation. Results: As a result of measuring the upper extremity joint angles, all three children showed slight angle changes in the shoulder, elbow, and wrist areas. Differences in joint angles appeared differently for each child. Smile evaluation results were evaluated in various psychological, educational, and physical aspects. Only child A was evaluated for Smile Evaluation No. 1. Conclusion: Sports stacking activities changed the upper extremity function of children with brain lesion disorders and showed differences in psychological, physical, and educational aspects of leisure satisfaction. As this is a short-term study result, the change in upper extremity function is minimal, but if sports stacking activities are continued, it will be a rehabilitation program that can prevent upper extremity dysfunction and improve physical strength. Accordingly, continuous attention should be paid to increasing accessibility and enjoyment of daily life according to individual characteristics and level.

To estimate and forecast runoff by using Aritifitial Neaural Networks model (ANNs). it has been studied in Thailand for the past 10 years. The model was developed in order to be conformed with the conditions in which the collected dataset is short and the amount of dataset is inadequate. Every year, the Northerpart of Thailand faces river overflow and flood inundation. The most important basin in this area is Yom basin. The purpose of this study is to forecast runoff at Y.14 gauge station (Si-Satchanalai district, Sukhothai province) for 3 days in advance. This station located at the upstream area of Yom River basin. Daily rainfall and daily runoff from Royal Irrigation Department and Meteorological Department during flood period 2000-2012 were used as input data. In order to check an accuracy of forecasting, forecasted runoff were compared with observed data by pursuing Nash Sutcliffe Efficiency (NSE) and Coefficient of Determination ($R^2$). The result of the first day gets the highest accuracy and then decreased in day 2 and day 3, consequently. NSE and $R^2$ values for frist day of runoff forecasting is 0.76 and 0.776, respectively. On the second day, those values are 0.61 and 0.65, respectively. For the third day, the aforementioned valves are 0.51 and 0.52, respectively. The results confirmed that the ANNs model can be used when the range of collected dataset is short and insufficient. In conclusion, the ANNs model is suitable for applying during flood incident because it is easy to use and does not require numerous parameters for simulating.

Soil Taxonomy에서는 화산회토(火山灰土)를 Inceptisols의 아목(亞目)인 Andepts로 분류(分類)하였는데, 1990년부터는 Andisols이라는 새로운 목(目)으로 분류(分類)하고 있다. Andisols의 중심개념(中心槪念)은 교질부분(膠質部分)이 Allophane과 같은 short-range-order 광물(鑛物)이거나 Al-유기복합체(有機複合體)가 주(主)가 되는 토양(土壤)이다. 따라서 Andisols 분류(分類)의 기준이 되는 Andic 특성(特性)을 규정(規定)하는데 선택적(選擇的) 추출방법(抽出方法)이 이용(利用)된다. 본(本) 연구(硏究)는 제주도(濟州道)의 한라산(漢拏山) 남사면(南斜面)에 Toposequence를 이루고 있는 10개 토양통(土壤統)과 제주도(濟州島)의 주요 토양군(土壤群)인 암갈색토(暗褐色土), 농암갈색토(濃暗褐色土), 흑색토(黑色土), 갈색삼림토(褐色森林土)를 대상으로 하여 Pyrophosphate, Dithionite-Citrate 및 Oxalate로 침출(浸出)되는 Al, Fe, Si 등을 분석하고 주요 토양(土壤)의 Allophane과 Ferrihydrite, Al-, Fe-유기복합체(有機複合體)등의 함량(含量)을 조사하여 Andic 특성(特性)을 고찰(考察)하였다. 1. Allophane과 Ferrihydrite와 같은 Short-range-order 광물(鑛物)이나 Al(Fe)-유기복합체(有機複合體)는 저지대(低地帶)에 분포(分布)한 암갈색토(暗褐色土)인 월평(月坪) 및 용흥통(龍興統)에서는 낮으나 그외 토양(土壤)에서는 높았다. 2. 저지대(低地帶)에 분포(分布)한 토양(土壤)을 제외하면 지대(地帶)가 높아질수록 Allophane 함량(含量)이 감소(減少)하고 Al-유기복합체(有機複合體) 함량(含量)이 증가(增加)하는 경향(傾向)이며, 토심(土深)이 깊어질수록 Allophane 함량(含量)이 증가(增加)하고 Al-유기복합체(有機複合體) 함량(含量)이 낮아졌다. 3. 중산간지대(中山間地帶)에 분포(分布)한 오라(吾羅) 및 아라통(我羅統)과 분석구(噴石口)에 분포(分布)한 토양(土壤)인 노로(老路) 및 적악통(赤岳統)에서는 존토층(全土層)을 통하여 Allophane과 Ferrihydrite 함량(含量)이 높았다. 4. 지대(地帶)가 높아질수록 pH가 낮고 유기물(有機物) 함량(含量)이 높아짐에 따라 고지대(高地帶)에 분포(分布)한 흑색토(黑色土) 평대통(坪垈統)과 갈색산림토(褐色森林土)인 토산(兎山) 및 흑악통(黑岳統)의 A층(層)에서는 활성(活性) Al이 주(主)로 Al-유기복합체(有機複合體)의 구성분(構成分)으로 존재(存在)하기 때문에 Allophaned의 함량(含量)이 낮으나 토심(土深)이 Al-유기복합체(有機複合體)보다는 Allophane의 구성분(構成分)으로 존재(存在)하고 따라서 Allophane 함량(含量)이 높았다.

Offshore wind turbines are considered as a fundamental part to develop substantial, alternative energy sources. In this highly flexible structures, monopiles are usually used as support foundations. Since the monopiles are large diameter (3.5 to 7 m) deep foundations, they result in extremely stiff short monopiles where the slenderness (length to diameter) may range between 5 and 10. Consequently, their elastic deformation patterns under lateral loading differ from those of small diameter monopiles usually employed for supporting structures in offshore oil and gas industry. For this reason, design recommendations (API and DNV) are not appropriate for designing foundations for offshore wind turbine structures as they have been established on the basis of full-scale load tests on long, slender and flexible piles. Furthermore, as these facilities are very sensitive to rotations and dynamic changes in the soil-pile system, the accurate prediction of monopile head displacement and rotation constitutes a design criterion of paramount importance. In this paper, the Fourier Series Aided Finite Element Method (FSAFEM) is employed for the determination of static impedance functions of monopiles for OWT subjected to horizontal force and/or to an overturning moment, where a non-homogeneous soil profile has been considered. On the basis of an extensive parametric study, and in order to address the problem of head stiffness of short monopiles, approximate analytical formulae are obtained for lateral stiffness $K_L$, rotational stiffness $K_R$ and cross coupling stiffness $K_{LR}$ for both rough and smooth interfaces. Theses expressions which depend only on the values of the monopile slenderness $L/D_p$ rather than the relative soil/monopile rigidity $E_p/E_s$ usually found in the offshore platforms designing codes (DNV code for example) have been incorporated in the expressions of the OWT natural frequency of four wind farm sites. Excellent agreement has been found between the computed and the measured natural frequencies.

The vitamin K antagonist (VKA), cumadin, or warfarin, is the only antithrombotic drug that can be orally administered and has excellent effective for decades. However, it is cumbersome to periodically inspect the prothrombin time (PT) order to maintain adequate concentrations that do not cause bleeding, takes a few days to indicate therapeutic effects, gets affected by several factors such as food and drugs etc, and narrow in the therapeutic range. Although recently in development, the non-vitamin K antagonist anticoagulants(NOACs) exhibit a rapid onset of action and have relatively short half- lives compared to Coumadin. Because of these pharmacokinetic properties, it is possible to modify an individual's anticoagulation status quite rapidly, minimizing the period where the anticoagulation activity is therapeutically suboptimal. And the short half -lives of these drug allow for the relatively rapid reduction of their anticoagulation effects. There are currently no published clinical trials specifically assessing the bleeding risks associated with dental procedures for patients taking the NOACs. It is not necessary to interrupt NOAC medication for dental procedures that are likely to cause bleeding, but which have a low risk of bleeding complications. Because the bleeding risk for these procedures is considered to be low, the balance of effects is in favour of continuing the NOAC treatment without modification, to avoid increasing the risk of a thromboembolic event. The patients should be advised to miss(apixaban or dabigatran) or delay(rivaroxaban) a dose of their NOAC prior to dental procedures that are likely to cause bleeding and which have a higher risk of bleeding complications. Because the risk of bleeding complications for these procedures is considered to be higher, the balance effects is in favour of missing or delaying the pretreatment NOAC dose. The interruption is only for a short time to minimize the effect on thromboembolic risk.
