A new flaw detection technique using by SH angle beam method has been discussed. The SH-wave is horizontally polarized shear wave and the surface SH wave has a characteristic of traveling along near surface layer. The surface SH wave technique is valuable for the detection of fatigue cracks at fillet weld heels which cannot be detected by other ultrasonic technique such as angle beam technique and The dispersion curves of it has simple characterization. In this work, using these beneficial chraterization, quality evaluation of spot weld with ultrasonic sound intensity of SH-wave passing through nugget area of spot weld are verified experimentally.

Background Ultrasonic dissection devices cause less thermal damage to the surrounding tissue than monopolar electrosurgical devices. We compared the effects of using an ultrasonic dissection device or an electrocautery device during prosthetic breast reconstruction on seroma development and short-term postoperative complications. Methods We retrospectively reviewed the medical records of patients who underwent implant-based reconstruction following mastectomy between March 2017 and September 2018. Mastectomy was performed by general surgeons and reconstruction by plastic surgeons. From March 2017 to January 2018, a monopolar electrosurgical device was used, and an ultrasonic dissection device was used thereafter. The other surgical methods were the same in both groups. Results The incidence of seroma was lower in the ultrasonic dissection device group than in the electrocautery group (11 [17.2%] vs. 18 [31.0%]; P=0.090). The duration of surgery, total drainage volume, duration of drainage, overall complication rate, surgical site infection rate, and flap necrosis rate were comparable between the groups. Multivariate analysis revealed that the risk of seroma development was significantly lower in the ultrasonic dissection device group than in the electrocautery group (odds ratio for electrocautery, 3.252; 95% confidence interval, 1.242-8.516; P=0.016). Conclusions The findings of this study suggest that the incidence of seroma can be reduced slightly by using an ultrasonic dissection device for prosthesis-based breast reconstruction. However, further randomized controlled studies are required to verify our results and to assess the cost-effectiveness of this technique.

뼈의 형성과 재형정은 조골세포에 의한 골기질의 합성과 파골세포에 의한 재흡수에 의해 조절된다. 최근에는 골형성세포의 활성화를 통한 골조직의 재생 및 치유에 대한 연구가 활발히 이루어지고 있다. 골형성 세포의 활성화는 생물학적 자극뿐만 아니라 물리적 자극에 의해서도 영향을 받는 것으로 알려져 있다. 본 연구에서는 물리적 자극 가운데에서 연구가 거의 되지 않은 저강도 초음파가 골형성 세포의 활성에 미치는 영향을 조사하였다. 이를 위하여 우선 다양한 특성의 초음파를 사용함으로써 세포활성에 미치는 최적의 초음파 조건을 결정하였다 본 연구 결과 전체 duty cycle에서 초음파 강도가 0.3W/$\textrm{cm}^2$일 경우가 세포활성에 가장 적합하며 duty cycle 50%인 경우 최고의 세포수 증가율을 나타내었다. 이와 같이 골조직의 재생에 적합한 초음파의 특성을 결정하여 골절 및 골다공증의 치료에 초음파를 활용할 수 있을 것으로 사료된다.

An experiment on the enhancement of turbulent flow with ultrasonic forcing was carried out by using PIV measurement in a coaxial circular pipe which could offer characteristics of the turbulence flow plentifully through its jet. A large transparent acryl tank and a coaxial circular pipe nozzle were made for the above research. city water of $25^{\circ}C$ was selected as an experimental liquid and the front flow field of the coaxial circular pipe was divided vertically as 3 measuring regions to observe characteristics of flow phenomena. characteristics of fluid flow such as velocity vector distribution, kinetic energy, turbulent intensity and etc. were visualized, observed, examined and considered at 5 kinds of Re No. such as $Re=1{\times}10^3,\;2{\times}10^3,\;3{\times}10^3,\;5{\times}10^3,\;1{\times}10^4$. In result it was proved that ultrasonic vibration affected the enhancement of turbulent flow.

Flow rate measurement uncertainties of the ultrasonic flow meter are generally influenced by many different factors, such as Reynolds number, flow distortion, turbulence intensity, wall surface roughness, velocity integration method along the acoustic paths, and transducer installation method, etc. Of these influencing factors, one of the most important uncertainties comes from the velocity integration method. In the present study, a optimization weighting factor method for 5-chord, which is given by a function of the chord locations of acoustic paths, is employed to obtain the mean velocity in the flow through a pipe. The power law profile is assumed to model the axi-symmetric pipe flow and its results are compared with the present weighting factor concept. For an asymmetric pipe flow, the Salami flow model is applied to obtain the velocity profiles. These theoretical methods are also compared with the previous Gaussian, Chebyshev, and Tailor methods. The results obtained show that for the fully developed turbulent pipe flows with surface roughness effects, the present weighting factor method is much less sensitive than Chebyshev and Tailor methods, leading to a better reliability in flow rate measurement using the ultrasonic flow meters.

PURPOSE: In this study investigated the thermal effect in tissue mimicking phantom by the material of the ultrasonic transducer in low intensity sonication. METHODS: The material of the ultrasonic transducer was made of ceramic, stainless steel, aluminum. Korea Testing Laboratory was measured of the three kinds of materials the total output of the ultrasonic transducer. Each material was measured core temperature and the actual output depending on the type of transducer. Agarose tissue mimicking phantom and silicone tissue mimicking phantom was made. Transducers made of three kinds of materials were emitted in the phantom. It is shown as a graph about time and temperature and the surface temperature rising speed and deep temperature rise rate was investigated. RESULTS: Ceramic transducers were highest output. Higher than the stainless steel transducer, aluminum had the lowest total output. Deep temperature was the highest in the ceramic transducer, and the surface temperature was the highest in the stainless steel transducer. Thermal images of ceramic transducer showed that a valid output is formed deeper wider than the metal. CONCLUSION: Ceramic transducer is confirmed the excellence than the metal transducer in deep thermal effect and the actual output of the ultrasound.

Recently the water management department advised the water treatment industry to focus on deploy the chemical free and the environmentally responsible process to adopt on water treatment plants in every country. In this objective, water treatment process started using ultrasonic based phycocyanin extraction with fluorescence measurement techniques to detect the change in the yield of phycocyanin. This paper propose the design of optical filter model for fluorescence technique based immersive optical phycocyanin measurement sensor design. The proposed design uses the multi-wavelength sensor module for irradiating part, and this plays a role of removing a wavelength band other than 590 ~ 620 nm. The preliminary study on immersed phycocyanin sensor, the fluorescence value of picocyanin according to the ultrasonic intensity, treatment time and number of cells was measured using JM phycocyanin module to emulate the proposed design, and were compared performance of the proposed sensor emulation. In this design, the phycocyanin fluorescence value increased about 2.1 ~ 4.7 times as the ultrasonic treatment time increased as compared with JM phycocyanin module, and the phycocyanin fluorescence value within the analysis range was obtained by ultrasonic treatment within one minute.

Synthesis of Iron oxides by air oxidation of $FeSO_4$ solutions in the presence of NaOH, Diethylenetriamine (DETA), Butylamine (BA) and influence of ultrasonic wave were investigated by XRD, SEM and particle size analyzer. As the DETA addition increased to 0.05 mol, $Fe_3O_4$ was formed with goethite($\alpha$- FeOOH) and $Fe_3O_4$ single phase was formed above 0.18mol of DETA. As the BA addition increased, the XRD peak intensity of (020) face of lepidocrocite($\gamma$-FeOOH) was developed until the formation of $Fe_3O_4$ and reduced the size of the iron oxide particles formed. Ultrasonic wave reduced the size of the iron oxide particles but gave little effects on the iron oxide particles synthesized by amine.
