  • 투명차폐재를 목적으로 Indium Tin Oxide (ITO) 투광성 박막을 제조하고 전자파 차폐특성에 대해 조사하였다. 박막은 RF magnetron co-sputtering 증착장비를 사용하여 제작하였다. RF 인가전력, Ar 및 $O_2$분압, 기판온도를 변화시키며 전기전도도와 투광성을 겸비한 박막의 조성과 구조에 관한 실험을 진행하였다. 최적의 증착조건은 $300^{\circ}C$의 기판온도, 20sccm의 아르곤 유량, 10sccm의 산소유량, 그리고 In과 Sn의 인가전력이 각각 50W와 30W일 경우였으며, 이때 얻어진 박막은 육안으로 분명할 정도의 투광성을 보였고 5.6$\times10^4$mho/m의 높은 전기전도도를 나타내었다. 이렇게 제조된 ITO 박막의 전자파 차폐효과를 차폐이론에 의해 분석하였다. 박막의 전기전도도, 두께, skin depth로부터 차폐기구(흡수손실, 반사손실, 다중반사 보정항)에 대해 고찰하였다. 계산된 차폐효과는 26dB의 값을 보여 투광성 차폐재로 ITO 박막의 사용 가능성을 제시할 수 있었다.

  • The objective of the present study is to systematically characterize a linear viscoelastic behavior of petroleum jelly in small amplitude oscillatory shear flow fields correspondent to the rheological ground state. With this aim, using a strain-controlled rheometer, the dynamic viscoelastic properties of commercially available petroleum jelly have been measured at $37^{\circ}C$ (body temperature) over a wide range of angular frequencies at an extremely small strain amplitude of 0.1 %. In this article, the linear viscoelastic behavior was reported in detail and then explained from a structural view-point of petroleum jelly and discussed in depth with respect to the consumer's requirements. Main findings obtained from this study can be summarized as follows : (1) The storage modulus is always greater than the loss modulus over an entire range of angular frequencies studied, meaning that the linear viscoelastic behavior of petroleum jelly is dominated by an elastic nature rather than a viscous nature. (2) Petroleum jelly shows a desirable linear viscoelastic behavior with respect to the consumer's requirements because it is undesirable for the product to flow down from the skin at an initial stage upon contact with the human skin. (3) A fractional derivative model shows an excellent applicability to describe a linear viscoelastic behavior of petroleum jelly. However, this model should be used with a special caution because there exists no physical meaning for the model parameters. (4) A modified form of the Cox-Merz rule gives a good ability to predict the relationship between steady shear flow properties (nonlinear behavior) and dynamic viscoelastic properties (linear behavior) for petroleum jelly.

  • Purpose: This study was to investigate how the heparin, which has been known to induce neovascularization by MMP in the infarcted tissue of the myocardium, had influence on the expression of mRNA of MMP 1,2,9 of the skin wound of rat. Methods: Full depth skin wounds were created on the dorsum of Sprague-Dawley 60 rats. The experimental rats were divided into two groups according to the concentration of heparin($100{\mu}g/ml$ in 20, $300{\mu}g/ml$ in 20). Heparin soaked gelatin sponges in different concentration were inserted into the pocket of experimental rats and the wounds were closed. Normal saline soaked gelatin sponges were used in control rats. Wounds were harvested at 48 and 72 hours after closure. We performed histologic study in H-E stain. RNA was isolated from the harvested tissue and then real time polymerase chain reaction was performed to determine the gene expression of MMP-1,2,9. Results: We observed that inflammatory cell decreased in heparin soaked group and heparin increased the expression of MMP-1,9 mRNA of dorsal wound of rat at 72 hours (p < 0.05). Conclusion: This result suggest that heparin may be used inducing another factor inducing scarless wound healing by increasing MMP.

  • Background: Frontal sinus fractures are relatively rare. Their surgical management significantly differs depending on whether the posterior wall is invaded and the clinical features vary. A bicoronal incision or endoscopic approach can be used. However, the minimally invasive approach has been attracting attention, leading us to introduce a simple and effective surgical method using multiple-threaded Kirschner wires. Methods: All patients had isolated anterior wall fractures without nasofrontal duct impairment. The depth from the skin to the posterior wall was measured using computed tomography to prevent injury. The edge of the bone segment on the skin was marked, a threaded Kirschner wire was inserted into the center of the bone segment, and multiple Kirschner wires were gently reduced simultaneously. Results: Surgery was performed on 11 patients. Among them, seven patients required additional support for appropriate fracture reduction. Therefore, a periosteal elevator was used as an adjunct through a small sub-brow incision because the reduction was incomplete with the Kirschner wire alone. The reduction results were confirmed using facial bone computed tomography 1 to 3 days postoperatively. The follow-up period was 3 to 12 months. Conclusion: The patients had no complications and were satisfied with the surgical results. Here we demonstrated an easy and successful procedure to reduce a pure anterior wall frontal sinus fracture via non-invasive threaded Kirschner wire reduction.

  • 대심도 연약지반에 설치되는 말뚝은 말뚝의 길이가 길어져 지반지지력이 크므로 극한 지지력의 확인이 힘들고, 부마찰력에 의해 큰 잔류하중이 발생하기 때문에 하중전이시험을 수행하더라도 정확한 하중전이곡선을 산정하기 어렵다. 본 연구에서는 연약지반에 설치된 PHC 항타 말뚝을 대상으로 선단지지력과 주면마찰력을 분리측정할 수 있고 극한 지지력을 확인하기 용이한 하중전이 양방향 재하시험을 수행하였다. 말뚝설치 직후부터 말뚝변형률을 지속적으로 계측하여 잔류하중을 결정하였다. 잔류하중의 영향을 고려하여 참지지력과 참 하중-변위 곡선을 분석하였다. 이를 바탕으로 잔류하중이 포함된 주면마찰력에 대한 하중-변위 거동모형을 제안하였다. 결과적으로, 점토지반에 설치되는 장대말뚝의 재하실험 결과에 대한 정확한 분석을 위해서는 잔류하중을 고려하여야 한다는 것을 입증하였다.

  • The present study examines the natural frequencies (NFs) of perfect/imperfect functionally graded sandwich beams (P/IP-FGSBs), which are composed of a porous core constructed of functionally graded materials (FGMs) and a homogenous isotropic metal and ceramic face sheets resting on elastic foundations. To accomplish this, the material properties of the FGSBs are assumed to vary continuously along the thickness direction as a function of the volume fraction of constituents expressed by the modified rule of the mixture, which includes porosity volume fraction represented using four distinct types of porosity distribution models. Additionally, to characterize the reaction of the two-parameter elastic foundation to the Perfect/Imperfect (P/IP) FGSBs, the medium is assumed to be linear, homogeneous, and isotropic, and it is described using the Winkler-Pasternak model. Furthermore, the kinematic relationship of the P/IP-FGSBs resting on the Winkler-Pasternak elastic foundations (WPEFs) is described using trigonometric shear deformation theory (TrSDT), and the equations of motion are constructed using Hamilton's principle. A closed-form solution is developed for the free vibration analysis of P/IP-FGSBs resting on the WPEFs under four distinct boundary conditions (BCs). To validate the new formulation, extensive comparisons with existing data are made. A detailed investigation is carried out for the effects of the foundation coefficients, mode numbers (MNs), porosity volume fraction, power-law index, span to depth ratio, porosity distribution patterns (PDPs), skin core skin thickness ratios (SCSTR), and BCs on the values of the NFs of the P/IP-FGSBs.

  • Background Burn infliction techniques are poorly described in rat models. An accurate study can only be achieved with wounds that are uniform in size and depth. We describe a simple reproducible method for creating consistent burn wounds in rats. Methods Ten male Sprague-Dawley rats were anesthetized and dorsum shaved. A 100 g cylindrical stainless-steel rod (1 cm diameter) was heated to $100^{\circ}C$ in boiling water. Temperature was monitored using a thermocouple. We performed two consecutive toe-pinch tests on different limbs to assess the depth of sedation. Burn infliction was limited to the loin. The skin was pulled upwards, away from the underlying viscera, creating a flat surface. The rod rested on its own weight for 5, 10, and 20 seconds at three different sites on each rat. Wounds were evaluated for size, morphology and depth. Results Average wound size was $0.9957cm^2$ (standard deviation [SD] 0.1845) (n=30). Wounds created with duration of 5 seconds were pale, with an indistinct margin of erythema. Wounds of 10 and 20 seconds were well-defined, uniformly brown with a rim of erythema. Average depths of tissue damage were 1.30 mm (SD 0.424), 2.35 mm (SD 0.071), and 2.60 mm (SD 0.283) for duration of 5, 10, 20 seconds respectively. Burn duration of 5 seconds resulted in full-thickness damage. Burn duration of 10 seconds and 20 seconds resulted in full-thickness damage, involving subjacent skeletal muscle. Conclusions This is a simple reproducible method for creating burn wounds consistent in size and depth in a rat burn model.

  • Flexible ECT (eddy current array) probe를 사용하여 판재 및 용접부에 존재하는 notch 결함을 MS-5800E와 OmniScan MX 장비로 검출능력을 비교하고, 주파수와 lift-off를 변수로 신호의 특성을 비교하고자 하였다. 실험 결과, 500, 1000, 1500 kHz를 사용하였을 때 notch 깊이가 증가할수록 신호의 진폭이 증가하는 것으로 나타났고, lift-off 변화에 따른 신호의 진폭은 선형적으로 감소하였다. 또한 용접부 결함은 probe와 시험체의 접촉면에 밀접한 관계가 있다. Probe와 시험체의 접촉면이 양호한 경우 검출감도가 우수하고 그렇지 않은 경우에는 검출감도가 떨어지는 것을 알 수 있었다.

  • 본 논문에서는 지반의 상대다짐도(RC)와 매입말뚝의 근입비에 따른 하중-침하 거동을 연구하기 위하여 모형실험과 하중전이 함수를 이용한 해석을 수행하였다. 모형시험에서 말뚝은 근입비(L/D)를 15, 20, 25로 설치하였고, 지반의 상대다짐도를 85%, 95%로 각각 조성하였으며 말뚝주면은 시멘트를 주입하였다. 본 논문은 매입말뚝의 해석을 위하여 Vijayvergia의 하중전이 모델, Castelli 모델, Gwizdala의 탄소성-완전소성 모델, coyle의 제안식 등을 사용하여 실험결과와 비교하였으며, 매입말뚝의 하중-침하 거동을 예측하는데 가장 적합한 하중전이 방법을 제안하였다. 하중전이 함수에 의한 지지력 예측 결과 매입말뚝의 극한 지지력은 Coyle의 제안식이 실측값에 가장 근접한 것으로 나타났으며, 초기 하중-침하 거동은 Castelli에 의한 함수가 가장 유사하게 하중-침하 거동을 평가하는 것으로 나타났다. 매입말뚝의 축하중 해석결과 하중전이법에 의해 평가된 주면마찰력이 실측값보다 과소평가 되는 것으로 나타났다.

  • For the treatment of superficial tumors like squamous cell carcinoma of the head and neck, 6 MV photon beam is not appropriate and a spoiler is widely used to increase dose in the buildup region, while preserving the skin sparing effect. However, commercially available treatment planning systems assume a normal unspoiled beam, thereby cannot predict the buildup dose with spoiler accurately. We aimed to implement a Monte Carlo (MC) based planning system to apply it to the radiation treatment of head and neck. Lucite with thickness of 10-mm was used for the beam spoiler with Siemens Primus 6 MV photon beam. BEAM/DOSXYZ MC system was employed to model the linac and the spoiler. To verify the calculation accuracy of MC simulations, the percent depth doses (PDDs) and profiles with and without spoiler were measured using a parallel-plate chamber. For the MC based planning, we adopted a hybrid interface system between Pinnacle (Philips, USA) and BEAM/DOSXYZ to support treatment parameters of Siemens linac and the spoiler. The measurements of PDDs and profiles agreed with the corresponding MC simulations within 2% (lSD), which demonstrate the reliability of our MC simulations. The spoiler generated electrons make a contribution to the absorbed dose up to depth of 2cm, which shows that the dominant source of increased dose from spoiler system is the contaminating electrons created by the spoiler. The whole procedures necessary for MC based treatment planning were performed seamlessly between Pinnacle and BEAM/DOSXYZ system. This ability helps to increase the clinical efficiency of the spoiler technique. In conclusion, we implemented a MC based treatment planning system for a 6 MV photon beam with a spoiler. We demonstrate sophisticated MC technique makes it possible to predict dose distributions around buildup region accurately.
