Ring, groove and cylinder bore wear may not be a problem in most current automotive engines. However, a small change in ring face, groove geometry and cylinder bore diameter can significantly affect the lubrication characteristics and ring axial motion. This in turn can cause to change inter-ring pressure, blowby and oil consumption in an engine. Therefore, by predicting the wear of piston ring face, ring groove and cylinder bore altogether, the changed ring end gap and the changed volume of gas reservoir can be calculated. Then the excessive oil consumption can be predicted. Being based on the calculation of gas flow amount by the theory of piston ring dynamics and gas flow, and the calculation of oil film thickness and friction force by the analysis of piston ring lubrication, the calculation theory of oil amount through top ring gap into combustion chamber will be set. This is estimated as engine oil consumption. Furthermore, the wear theories of ring, groove and cylinder bore are included. Then the each amount of wear is to be obtained. The changed oil consumption caused by the new end gap and the new volume of oil reservoir around second land, can be calculated at some engine running interval. Meanwhile, the wear amount and oil consumption occurred during engine durability cycle are compared with the calculated values. Next, the calculated amount of oil consumption and wear are compared with the guideline of each part's wear and oil consumption. So, the timing of part repair and engine life cycle can be predicted in advance without performing engine durability test. The wear data of rings, grooves and cylinder bore are obtained from three engines before and after engine durability test. The calculated wear data of each part are turn out to be around the band of averaged test values or a little below.

Purpose: Serum thyroglobulin (Tg) determination has been reported to be a sensitive indicator of persistent or recurrent differentiated thyroid cancer (DTC) after total thyroidetectomy. In patients free of metastasese and recurrences after a complete thyroidectomy and radioiodine removal for DTC, the Tg is usually <1 ng/mL or can no longer be detected even with TSH stimulation. Therefore, report in low Tg levels and selecting criteria for retest is very important. The purpose of this study was to establish selecting criteria for retest which is efficient at reliability improvement and Turn around time (TAT). Materials and Methods: Sera from 137 patients with DTC were divided into two groups as first(<1.0 ng/mL or >4.0 ng/mL) and second(1.0-4.0 ng/mL). In case of group(<1.0 ng/mL) is in patient free of metastases and recurrences, >4.0 ng/ml is low coefficient of variation (CV%) at internal quality control and good linearity at standard curve. Therefore first group began with Delta/Panic check (D/P) and second group surveyed with the latest results. In that the latest results were <1.0 ng/ml, we checked the thyroxin withdrawal. Finally selected specimen retested with raw specimen. Results: In first group, we was able to reduce the retest rate(30.8% to 7.7%). and In second group, 40% to 5%. The total retest rate was 7.3%. Conclusion: If using the selecting criteria for retest, is helpful to accuracy and quickness of the result report.

We use the electrical energy and it is essential energy in modern life, but we lay cable underground due to the issue for environment and safety. Safety for worker is still insufficient for the development of safety equipment and related research has been focused on the cable lifetime diagnosis at underground cable work. I have to develop live line detector around the magnetic field were investigated at underground cable. In this paper, we were investigated by variation of coil turns and load due to detection of magnetic field at lines around. And detected value of developing products compared with measured value of milli-gauss meter. As a result, the value of the number of coil turns was found to be proportional to the measured value. But turn-numbers increase showed that the weak noise. I could be confirmed that sensor showed the optimum value from 4,000 to 5,0000.

In order to offer specific information needed to assist in operation of a ship with same type rudder through evaluating the maneuverability of training ship A-Ra with flapped rudder, sea trials based full scale for turning test, zig-zag test with rudder angle 10° and 20°, and spiral test at service condition were carried out on starboard and port sides around Jeju Island according to the standards of maneuverability of IMO. As a result, the angular velocity of port turn was higher than that of starboard turn. Therefore, the size of turning circle was longer on the starboard side. In addition, variation of the transfer due to various factors was more stable than those of the others. In the Z-test results, the mean of 1st and 2nd overshoot angles were 9.8°, 6.3° and 15.3°, 9.2° respectively when the port and starboard was 10°; the 1st overshoot angle were 18°, 13.7° when using 20°. Her maneuverability index T' and K' can be easily determined by using a computer with the data obtained from Z-test where K' and T' are dimensionless constants representing turning ability and responsiveness to the helm, respectively. In the Z-test under flap rudder angle 10°, the obtained K' value covered the range of 2.37-2.87 and T' was 1.74-3.45. Under the flap rudder angle 20°, K' and T' value showed 1.43-1.63, 1.0-1.73, respectively. In the spiral test, the loop width was unstable at +0.3° and -0.5°-0.9° around the midship of flap rudder. As a result, course stability was comparatively good. From the sea trial results, training ship ARA met the present criterion in the standards of maneuverability of IMO.

The purpose of this study was to research on the movement of Fouette A La Second which was a type of turning movements on cheerleading. This research was conducted for helping cheerleaders to improve their overall skills. The three cheerleading national team members were participated in this research and the movements of Fouette A La Second were recorded with 6 digital motion master 60 video cameras, operating at a sampling frequency of 60 fields/sec. Six out of ten turning motion data were collected and analyzed with Kwon3D XP. The results were as follow: 1) The subject A's Releve motion was not executed precisely because of the COG's unstability. So she was required to improve the balancing ability. 2) The subject B could not execute the precise A La Second motion because of subject B's large hip angle. By tracing the projection of B's right toe on x-y plane, the subject made an elliptical orbit. Because B did not have a proper turning skills she needed to improve the muscle power and flexibility. She also needed to move quickly from Releve to Plie movement. 3) The subject C could not execute the Plie movement precisely, so she could not turn her body correctly around a certain spot. The subject C needed to decrease the knee angle at the Plie motion.

The ozonation process has been widely used for drinking water disinfection around the world. Recently, the pressurized ozone contactor, in which the side stream typed ozone injection method is installed, has been applied to water treatment system. In this study, numerical calculations were conducted to compare prototype and screw-type ozone contactors based on hydraulic effectiveness in more details. The prototype ozone contactor was already installed and operated in domestic water treatment plant, and the screw-type is the suggested one for improving ozone contact efficiency installing the screw plate to the prototype. Screw turn numbers of screw plate were changed as 3, 5, 7 and 9, respectively for numerical simulation. The CT(concentration of disinfectant in mg/L times time in minutes) value was considered as one of the options for evaluating disinfection ability. From the results, it could be concluded that the performance of the screw-type is higher than that of the protype contactor by controlling the variable T as the tracer time. Also, Morill index of the screw-type(turn numbers = 5 ) appeared to be lower than the other.

IGBT (insulated gate bipolar transistor) has been widely used around the power industry as it has good switching performance and its excellent conductance. In order to reduce power loss during switch turn-on state, it is essential to reduce its resistance. However, trade off relationship between breakdown voltage and device conductance is the greatest obstacle on the way of improvement. Floating island structure is one of the solutions. Still, under optimized device condition for the best performance, improvement rate is negligible. Therefore, this paper suggests adding trench gate on floating island structure to eliminate JFET (junction field effect transistor) area to reduce resistance and activate floating island effect. Experimental result by 2D simulation using TCAD, shows 20% improvement of turn-on state voltage drop.

This paper describes a design study of the cylindrical multi-hole premixed burner to be used for condensing gas boiler which can raise performance and reduce NOx emission. In this study, specifications of the multi-hole burner (hole diameters and arrangement) are investigated using model flat burners in terms of flame stability, and combustion characteristics for stability and NOx emission are examined for cylindrical multi-hole burner. As a result, the equivalence ratio for optimum operation condition of the cylindrical burner is around 0.72(0.7∼0.75). In this condition, turn-down ratio becomes 3 : 1 at least which is suitable for proportional control. The NOx and CO emission is less than 40ppm and 25ppm(0$_2$0% basis), respectively. This burner can be applied LPG as well as NG because there is no difference for stable combustion region.

We have investigated equivalent-circuit analysis of organic light-emitting diodes using frequency-dependent response of $ITO/Alq_3(60nm)/Al$ device at two different bias voltages. Complex impedance Z of the device was measured in the frequency range of 40Hz~1MHz. A Cole-Cole plot shows that there are two dielectric relaxations at the bias below turn-on voltage, and one relaxation at the bias above turn-on voltage. We are able to interpret the frequency-dependent response in terms of equivalent-circuit model of contact resistance $R_s$ in series with parallel combination of resistance $R_p$ and capacitance $C_p$. We have obtained contact resistance $R_s$ around $90{\Omega}$, mainly from the ITO anode.
