  • 방사선 치료에 따른 방사선량 최적화 문제를 풀기 위한 새로운 방법이 제시되었다. 기존의 2차원 치료계획과는 달리 3차원 문제에서는 모든 조건이 훨씬 복잡하고 관련된 변수도 많아지기 때문에 문제를 해결하기가 쉽지 않다. 본 연구에서는 3차원 선량최적화 문제를 접근하는데 있어서, 해가 존재할 수 있는 범위를 줄여주고, 중요한 파라미터들을 미리 구해주어서 치료계획에 관련된 변수를 줄이는 방법을 연구하였다. 먼저 선형가속기와 환자좌표계사이의 좌표변환을 이용하여 두부 내의 중요기관을 피하는 빔 위치를 찾았다 그리고 임의의 빔 위치에 대해 병소를 완전히 감싸는 빔 크기와 콜리메이터 회전각을 구하였다. 그 결과 가능한 빔 위치를 줄여줄 수 있었고, 빔 크기와 회전각에 대한 의존성을 없앨 수 있었다. 따라서 고려해야할 변수의 조합이 크게 줄어들게 되었고, 목적함수를 이용한 선량최적화에 있어서 최소한의 변수로만 계산이 가능하게 되었다. 위의 결과를 이용하여 임상에 널리 쓰이는 2차원 방사선치료계획의 선량최적화 문제를 해결하였다. 선량기울기, 중요기관의 선량, 선량분포 균일도를 조합한 목적함수를 최소화하는 최적해를 step search 방법을 이용하여 구하였다. 그리고 이 최적해를 이용한 선량분포로부터 새로운 방법에 의한 선량최적화의 가능성을 확인할 수 있었고, 후속 연구를 통하여 상용 방사선 치료계획 시스템에 적용함으로써 임상에 쓰일 수 있을 것으로 사료된다.

  • In conventional photogrammetry, three-dimensional coordinates are obtained from two consecutive images of a stationary object photographed from two exposure stations, separated by a certain distance. However, it is impossible to photograph moving objects from two stations with one camera at the same time. Various methods to overcome this obstacle were devised e. g. taking the left and right scenes simultaneously with one camera using a beam splitter attached to the front, thus creating a stereo scene in one image. A beam splitter consists of two outer mirrors and two inner mirrors. This paper deals with research where the optical principles of the beam splitter were evaluated based on light path phenomena between the outer mirrors and the inner mirrors. A mathematical model of the geometric configuration was derived for the beam splitter. This allows us to design and control a beam splitter to obtain maximum scale and maximum base-height ratio by stepwise application of the mathematical model. The results show that the beam splitter is a very useful tool for stereophotography with one camera. The optimum geometric configurations ensuring maximum scale and base-height ratio are closely related to inner and outer reflector sizes, their inclination angles and the offsets between the outer mirrors.

  • Patient dose verification is one of the most important parts in quality assurance of the treatment delivery for radiation therapy. The dose distributions may be meaningfully improved by modulating two dimensional intensity profile of the individual high energy radiation beams In this study, a new method is presented for the pre-treatment dosimetric verification of these two dimensional distributions of beam intensity by means of a charge coupled device video camera-based fluoroscopic device (henceforth called as CCD-VCFD) as a radiation detecter with a custom-made software for dose calculation from fluorescence signals. This system of dosimeter (CCD-VCFD) could reproduce three dimensional (3D) relative dose distribution from the digitized fluoroscopic signals for small (1.0$\times$1.0 cm$^2$ square, ø 1.0 cm circular ) and large (30$\times$30cm$^2$) field sizes used in intensity modulated radiation therapy (IMRT). For the small beam sizes of photon and electron, the calculations are performed In absolute beam fluence profiles which are usually used for calculation of the patient dose distribution. The good linearity with respect to the absorbed dose, independence of dose rate, and three dimensional profiles of small beams using the CCD-VCFD were demonstrated by relative measurements in high energy Photon (15 MV) and electron (9 MeV) beams. These measurements of beam profiles with CCD-VCFD show good agreement with those with other dosimeters such as utramicro-cylindrical (UC) ionization chamber and radiographic film. The study of the radiation dosimetric technique using CCD-VCFD may provide a fast and accurate pre-treatment verification tool for the small beam used in stereotactic radiosurgery (SRS) and can be used for verification of dose distribution from dynamic multi-leaf collimation system (DMLC).

  • We investigate the multiple nontrivial solutions of the asymmetric beam equation $u_{tt}+u_{xxxx}=b_1[{(u + 2)}^+-2]+b_2[{(u + 3)}^+-3]$ with Dirichlet boundary condition and periodic condition on t. We reduce this problem into a two-dimensional problem by using variational reduction method and apply the Mountain Pass theorem to find the nontrivial solutions of the equation.

  • A simple and useful model of light distribution for the biologhical tissue to the Gaussian beam is proposed. This model assumes that the incident Gaussian beam broadens into two Gaussian beams, travelling in the opposite directions as the result of both isotropic scattering and absorption in the tissue. With this assumption, two-dimensional light intensity of each flux as well as the equations of both absorption and scattering have been derived, and the validity of modeling has been confirmed experimentally. Consequently, the results paved a way for easy evaluation of the light distribution in the biological tissue.

  • In this paper, computerized BEAM was implemented for the space domain analysis of EEG. Trans-formation from temporal summation to two-dimensional mappings is formed by 4 nearest point inter-polaton method. Methods of representation of BEAM are two. One is dot density method which classify brain electrical potential 9 levels by dot density of gray levels and the other is colour method which classify brain electrical 12 levels by red-green colours. In this BEAM, instantaneous change and average energy distribution over any arbitrary time interval of brain electrical activity could be observed and analyzed easily. In the frequency domain, the distribution of energy spectrum of a special band can easily be distinguished normality and abnormality.

  • A precision displacement measurement system of 3-DOF micro motions is proposed in this paper. The measurement system is composed of two diode lasers, two quadratic PSDs, two beam splitters and a sphere whose surface is highly reflective. In this measurement system, the sphere reflector is mounted on the platform of positioning devices whose 3-DOF translational motions are to be measured, and the sensitive areas of two PSDs are oriented toward the center point of the sphere reflector. Each laser beam emitted from two diode laser sources is reflected at the surface of sphere and arrives at two PSDs. Each PSD serves as a 2-dimensional sensor, providing the information on the 3-dimensional position of the sphere. In this paper, we model the relationship between the outputs of two PSDs and 3-DOF translational motions of the sphere mounted on the object. Based on a deduced measurement model, we perform measurement simulation and evaluate the performance of the proposed measurement system: linearity, sensitivity, and measurement error. The simulation results show that the proposed measurement system can be valid means of precision displacement measurement of 3-dimensional micro motions.

  • 2차원 공간 고립파는 비선형 굴절률이 빛의 세기에 따라 일정한 값에 수렴하는 포화 매질에서 안정적으로 전파될 수 있다. 그러나 빛의 세기가 크지 않은 경우, 5차 비선형 굴절률이 음수인 매질은 포화 매질의 특성을 가지므로 2차원 공간 고립파가 전파될 수 있다. 2차원 비선형 슈뢰딩거 방정식의 전산 시늉을 통하여 빛의 세기가 크지 않은 경우 가우시안 빛살이 5차 비선형 매질을 전파하는 과정을 조사하였다. 그 결과 자체 포획 일률로 입사시킬 때 가장 안정적으로 2차원 공간 고립파가 전파한다는 것을 알 수 있었다. 또한 위상차가 180$^{\circ}$인 두 공간 고립파를 0.05$^{\circ}$의 충돌각으로 충돌시키면서 한 쪽 고립파의 입사 일률을 조절한다면 출력단에서 두 공간 고립파의 완전 광 스위칭이 가능함을 확인하였다.

  • The present paper deals with delamination fracture analyses of the multilayered functionally graded non-linear elastic Symmetric Split Beam (SSB) configurations. The material is functionally graded in both width and height directions in each layer. It is assumed that the material properties are distributed non-symmetrically with respect to the centroidal axes of the beam cross-section. Sine laws are used to describe the continuous variation of the material properties in the cross-sections of the layers. The delamination fracture is analyzed in terms of the strain energy release rate by considering the balance of the energy. A comparison with the J-integral is performed for verification. The solution derived is used for parametric analyses of the delamination fracture behavior of the multilayered functionally graded SSB in order to evaluate the effects of the sine gradients of the three material properties in the width and height directions of the layers and the location of the crack along the beam width on the strain energy release rate. The solution obtained is valid for two-dimensional functionally graded non-linear elastic SSB configurations which are made of an arbitrary number of lengthwise vertical layers. A delamination crack is located arbitrary between layers. Thus, the two crack arms have different widths. Besides, the layers have individual widths and material properties.

  • 선박의 보-유추 진동해석에 있어 2차원 부가수질량의 3차원 효과를 고려하기 위해서 3차원 수정계수(J-factor)를 계산해야 하는데 광폭선의 경우에는 J-factor의 계산이 부정확하고 번거롭다. 이 논문에서는 이를 개선하기 위해 새로운 선박의 보-유추 접수진동해석 방법을 소개하였다. 이 방법은 선박에 접수된 유체에 대해 BEM 기법을 이용하여 3차원 유체력을 직접 계산하고 이를 일정 간격으로 나눈 각 스트립에 집중질량으로 평가한 후에 선체의 보모델과 결합하여 보-유추 진동해석을 수행하는 방법이다. 오픈탑 컨테이너선의 모델에 대해 기존의 보-유추 진동해석방법과 이 논문에서 제시한 새로운 진동해석방법을 이용하여 진동해석을 수행하고 가진 실험에 의한 진동계측결과와 상호 비교함으로써 새로운 방법의 유용성을 검증하였다.
