  • Residual performance of old architectural wood which has been damaged was measured using Nondestructive Evaluation (NDE). The wood Pole Tester was used to assess ultrasonic velocity inside wood and drill resistance was determined using an IML-resistograph. For ultrasonic measurements squared timber and circular timber's measurements were separately conducted with 1,300 m/s as the standard ultrasonic velocity. The standard wood samples divided into two parts; a non-sound area (below the standard), and a sound area (above the standard). Furthermore, schematization of wood was compared with results naked eye observation. The drilling resistance test was performed for both length and thickness direction in wood. The internal of the drilling was set at 30 cm (length direction), 5 cm (width direction) and 30cm (thickness direction). A non-sound area was defined as that 1) amplitude is below 20% and 2) carbonization and deterioration are related.

  • Purpose : The purpose of this paper is to compare the immediate effects of tensor fascia latae (TFL) stretching with weight bearing (standing position) or non-weight bearing (side-lying position). Methods : The study was conducted on 30 adults (12 men, 18 women) in their 20s. Modified Thomas's test was conducted to find out if the TFL muscle has a tightness for current study. This study randomly divided the subjects into two groups and set the standing stretching group (n=15) or the side-lying stretching group (n=15). Both groups applied self-stretching under the therapist's supervision. TFL stretching in each positions was performed 30 seconds per set, 3 times, and 30 seconds per set could rest. The Ober test were conducted to investigate the effect of TFL stretching in each positions. Results : For the Ober test measurements within each group, both groups significantly increased after intervention compared to before (p<.05). There was no significant difference between the groups (p>.05). Conclusion : TFL stretching in standing position and side-lying position increased the range of motion of the TFL muscle. Therefore, if it is difficult to apply TFL stretching in standing position (weight bearing) due to pain or other reasons, it will be able to TFL stretching in side-lying position (non-weight bearing).

  • Bronchogenic cyst is an uncommon congenital lesion which is derived from the primitive foregut. Most bronchogenic cyst may develope at the tracheal bifurcation, both main bronchi, the lung parenchymeand the mediastinum. A 40-year old male was evaluated for dyspnea and chest tightness. Computed tomography revealed a well dermarcated, 7.2 ${\times}$ 7.9 cm sized, homogeneous mass compressing the left atrium. 2D-echo showed grade III mitral regurgitation. We completely removed the cystic mass and then confirmed the bronchogenic cyst in the pathological diagnosis. During the follow up period, the patient progressed well without any symptoms and showed grade I mitral regurgitation on the 2D-Echo. Therefore, we report a case of the bronchogenic cyst causing grade III mitral regurgitation.

  • The main cause of ischemic heart disease combined with aortic valve disease is the systemic atherosclerotic process. Coronary artery embolism by a particle from the calcified aortic valvular tissue is very rare. A 73-year-old female patient was admitted due to chest tightness of recent onset. Two dimensional echocardiogram showed severe calcific aortic valve stenosis. Preoperative coronary angiogram exhibited a stenotic lesion at the distal right coronary artery, which seemed to be embolic in origin. The coronary embolus was removed through the coronary arteriotomy and then the arteriotomy site was repaired by onlay patch angioplasty technique. Aortic valve was replaced by a bioprosthetic valve. The embolus was reported as a fibrocalcified particle of diseased valve.

  • The storage ring vacuum system for the Pohang Light Source (PLS) has been designed to maintain the vacuum pressure of $10^{-10}Torr$ which requires UHV welding to have helium leak rate less than $1{\times}10^{-10}Torr{\cdot}{\ell}/sec$. In order to develop new technique (PLS) welding technique), a prototype vacuum chamber has been welded by using Tungsten Inert Gas welding method and all the welded joints have been tested with a non-destructive method, so called helium leak detection, to investigate the vacuum tightness of the weld joints. The test was performed with a detection limit of $1{\times}10^{-10}Torr{\cdot}{\ell}/sec$ for helium and no detectable leaks were found for all the welded joints. Thus the performance of welding technique is proven to meet the criteria of helium leak rate required in the PLS Storage Ring. Both the principle and the procedure for the helium leak detection are also discussed.

  • Rotator interval should be as loose as possible, though not so loose as to break the shoulder mechanism. This region is a source of significant shoulder pathology resulting in patient discomfort and dysfunction. The clinical features fall into two categories. Rotator interval tightness is associated with impingement, contracture with adhesive capsulitis, and widening with anteroinferior, posterior or multidirectional instability. Coracoid impingement can cause damage to the structures of the rotator interval, Injury of the interval are associated with subscapularis tears as well as biceps tendinitis, fraying, subluxation, and dislocation. An understanding of the normal and pathologic anatomy can lead to successful diagnosis and treatment of lesions in the rotator interval.

  • Various effluents generated in cooking processes contribute a great deal to indoor air pollution among many other indoor pollutants such as dusts from outdoor and carbon dioxide from human body. Kitchen exhaust hoods are not believed to exhaust indoor contaminants properly in many cases, while generating too much noise. Instead of focusing on individual products of kitchen hoods, we should address the problem by attacking the ventilation system as a whole including vertical shafts and building air-tightness. In this study, it is intended to investigate the pressure distribution along the vertical shaft depending on various system parameters, such as shaft size, concurrent hood usage rate, roof fan, inlet pressure loss, and outdoor temperature. The maximum static pressure in the vertical shaft has been obtained using the method of design of experiments and analyzed by the analysis of variance. The results can be used for the design of kitchen exhaust systems by analyzing the pressure distributions in vertical shafts.

  • The well tightness of the coal mining water-cooling explosion-proof motor results in difficult heat dissipation, high hydraulic pressure is needed to increase the cooling effect. However, high hydraulic pressure may lead motor shell to deform, which makes it difficult to change the motor and maintain the motor unit. The method of adding keyhole caulk weld spots on the outer cooling water jacket was proposed to solve the problem. Based on the elasticity mechanics equations and the principle of finite element method the stresses and the deformations of the traditional and novel outer cooling water jacket were calculated separately. A hydraulic pressure experiment of the both cooling water jackets was constructed. Obviously, the stress and the deformation of the novel cooling water jacket are lower. The experimental result is consistent with the simulation results. It is effective to reduce the stress and the deformation of the cooling water jacket by adding the keyhole caulk weld spots.

  • Tooth Positioner는 band를 제거한 후 가능한 빨리 장착시켜야 susceptible하며 무엇보다도 환자의 생리학적 jaw movement를 설정해서 제작해야 하고 적어도 hingeaxis relation은 찾아서 제작해야한다. Positioner의 장착시간은 하루에 $3\~4$시간의 active biting exercise와 수안시간동안 사용하게 한다. 처음 장착시에 가장 tight하고 이 tightness 는 치아가 요망되는 위치로 근접함에 따라서 점차 감소되고 이 tightness의 감소가 작용효과의 가장 좋은 지침이 되며 자는 하루 하루 그 변화를 느껴야 한다. Positioner가 느슨하게 적합되고 좋은 교합관계를 보이면 장착을 수안시간동안으로 제한시키거나 혹은 깨어 있을 동안 한 두시간 장착하게 한아. 대개 $3\~4$주 후에 predetermined pattern과 유사하게 되며, 일반적으로 장착 후 $8\~10$주 후에 더 장착할 것인가를 결정하고 필요성이 없다면 conventional retainer로 바꾸어 준다. Tooth Positioner는 기능적인 구호흡, thumb sucking, snoring을 해소시켜 줄 수 있으며 jaw relationship이나 overbite문제를 해결할 수 있다. 그리고 chair time을 감소시켜 줄 수 있으며 tissue tone을 자극해서 치아위치를 증진시키는데 끊임없이 작용한다. 그러나 제작에 많은 시간이 걸리고 치아를 배열하는 술자의 능력에 따라 치료효과가 많이 좌우되며 너무 bulky하므로 이물감이 커서 유용하게 장착할 수 있는 시간이 제한적이고 natural muscle balance에 대해 간헐적인 교정력을 가함으로써 치아를 loosening 시킬 수 있다. 이 장치물은 다른 removable appliance와 같이 환자의 협조가 무엇보다 중요하므로 환자에게 장착동기를 유발시켜 주는 것이 좋으며 True Blocked Nasal Airway가 있는 환자에게는 금기증이 된다.

  • The present paper describes transient thermal and mechanical analyses of a lox/kerosene type turbopump in a LRE(Liquid Rocket Engine). Turbopumps are used to pressurize propellants to achieve higher specific impulse of LRE. The turbopump under development has been designed and verified by structural analyses using finite element methods. Some parts of the turbopump operate under cryogenic environments, while the others work under ambient and high temperature environments. Therefore, numerical analysis at a turbopump system level is essential. In this study, casing assemblies of lox pump and fuel pump were analyzed to determine strength test and air-tightness test conditions. Also, some operational stress and strains of fuel pump casings were measured and analyzed. Based on these results, stress concentration of fuel pump casings during the operation could be successfully predicted.
