심근 관류 SPECT 검사 중 환자의 움직임은 관류 결손과 인공물을 발생시켜 정확한 진단에 영향을 줄 수 있는 인자이다. 움직임으로 왜곡된 데이터를 보정하는 방법으로 움직임 보정방법이 개발되었고 각 방법마다 사용된 알고리즘이 다르기에 상황에 비교하고자 한다. 실험에 사용된 장비는 GE Ventri Gamma Camera와 Anthropomorphic Torso Phantom을 이용하였다. 팬텀을 환자 조건과 동일하게 하기 위하여 심근에 74 kBq/mL, 연부조직 1.1 kBq/mL, 폐 2.6 kBq/mL, 간 9.6 kBq/mL의 Tl-201을 주입하여 제작하고, 움직이는 상황에서 결손의 변화 관찰 목적으로 심근의 Anterior wall에 임의로 결손을 삽입하였다. 움직이지 않는 정상군과 일정간격(2 cm, 3 pixel) 상하 1회 이동, 상하 반복 이동, 좌우 1회 이동, 좌우 반복 이동한 데이터에 나누어 영상 획득하고 MDC, Hopkins, Stasis 방법을 적용하여 Polar map과 정량분석 Score로 비교 하였다. 환자와 동일한 조건으로 회전각 $6^{\circ}$, 50sec/frame으로 영상 획득하고, OSEM (2 iterations, 10 subsets), Butterworth filter (order 10; cutoff frequency; 0.32 cycle per pixel)를 적용, scatter correction, 감쇠보정은 적용하지 않았다. 팬텀 실험에서 세 가지 방법들에서 MDC 방법이 Visual 인공물 없이 잘 보정하였으나, 환자의 데이터에 이를 적용 하였을 때, 환자마다 움직임 보정방법 적용 결과들이 일정하지 않았다. 이는, 환자의 움직임이 일정하지 않고, 장기내의 동위원소의 비율도 다르기에 발생한다고 생각되며 추가적인 연구와 상황에 맞는 움직임 보정방법의 유동적인 사용이 필요하다고 사료된다.

어안렌즈는 사각이 넓어서 터널 내부 벽면의 영상을 취득하는 데 유용하다. 원통투영의 원리를 이용하여 어안렌즈터널 영상을 우리의 눈에 익숙한 일반 영상으로 변환시킬 수 있는데, 이 과정에서 여러 종류의 왜곡이 발생하게 된다. 본 논문은 투영영상의 터널 바닥면과 벽면 사이 경계선에서 발생하는 왜곡을 다루고 있다. 경계선 왜곡의 발생 원인을 분석하고 모형을 제작하여 보정량 계산식을 유도하였다. Visual C++로 제작한 소프트웨어를 이용하여 계산된 보정량을 투영영상에 적용한 결과 경계선이 보정된 영상을 얻을 수 있었다. 투영영상에 나타난 다른 왜곡에 대한 연구가 추가된다면 어안렌즈 영상을 통해 실제 터널 벽면과 유사한 영상을 얻을 수 있을 것으로 기대된다.

Wall interference is one of the major obstacles to increase the model size and data accuracy. There have been many treatments for wall interference including interference correction and adaptive wall test section. Recently, two-flexible-walled adaptive wall test section is concluded adequate for three-dimensional test. But proper location of target line and pressure holes are critical to its success. In this study, a new adaptive algorithm which dispenses target line and dependency of pressure hole distribution is suggested. The wind tunnel and free air tests are simulated by the numerical computation of Euler equations. The optimum wall shape is achieved by two variable optimization which is composed of two base streamlines. The wall interference is reduced well in the optimized result which is not sensitive to the base streamlines.

In order to study the resistance test technique for the submerged body in Large Cavitation Tunnel (LCT), DARPA Suboff, submarine model publicly available was manufactured. DTRC released the resistance test data of DARPA Suboff conducted at ship speeds up to 18.0 knots in high-speed towing tank in 1990. As LCT is considered restricted waterways with walls, the resistance test results must be corrected with three wall blockage effects called buoyancy effect, solid blockage effect and wake blockage effect. Before correction, the resistance of LCT was 16~20 % higher than that of DTRC. After correction, the resistance and the resistance coefficients were compared with those of DTRC. The corrected resistance of LCT shows good agreement with that of DTRC. The residual resistance coefficient shows the difference according to the calculation method of buoyancy and frictional resistance coefficient. This paper suggests the best way for the calculation of residual resistance coefficient, On the basis of the present study, it is thought that the operating conditions for the propeller cavitation and noise tests can be drawn through LCT tests.

Aerosol wall loss is an important factor affecting smog chamber experiments, especially with chambers made of Teflon film. In this work, the aerosol wall loss was investigated in 2.5 and $5.8-m^3$ cubic-shaped Teflon film chambers filled with ambient air. The natural change in the particle size distribution was measured using a scanning mobility particle sizer in a dark environment. The rate of aerosol wall loss was obtained from the deposition theory suggested by Crump and Seinfeld (1981). The measured rates of aero-sol wall loss were In a good agreement with the theoretical and experimental values given by McMurry and Rader (1985), implying that the electrostatic effect enhances particle deposition on the chamber wall. The significance of aerosol wall loss correction was demonstrated with the photochemical reaction experiments using the ambient air.

A numerical method for the assessment and correction of tunnel wall interference effects on forced-oscillation testing is presented. The method is based on the wall pressure signature method using computed wall pressure distributions. The wall pressure field is computed using unsteady three-dimensional full Navier-Stokes solver for a 70-degree pitching delta wing in a wind tunnel. Approximately-factorized alternate direction implicit (AF-ADI) scheme is advanced in time by solving block tri-diagonal matrices. The algebraic Baldwin-Lomax turbulence, model is included to simulate the turbulent flow effect. Also, dual time sub-iteration with, local, time stepping is implemented to improve the convergence. The computed wall pressure field is then imposed as boundary conditions for Euler re-simulation to obtain the interference flow field. The static computation shows good agreement with experiments. The dynamic computation demonstrates reasonable physical phenomena with a good convergence history. The effects of the tunnel wall in upwash and blockage are analyzed using the computed interference flow field for several reduced frequencies and amplitudes. The corrected results by pressure signature method agree well with the results of free air conditions.

This paper presents a boundary-layer wind tunnel (BLWT) study on the effect of variable dominant openings on steady and transient responses of wind-induced internal pressure in a low-rise building. The paper presents a parametric study focusing on differences and similarities between transient and steady-state responses, the effects of size and locations of dominant openings and vent openings, and the effects of wind angle of attack. In addition, the necessity of internal volume correction during sudden breaching, i.e., a transient response experiment was investigated. A comparison of the BLWT data with ASCE 7-2010, as well as with limited large-scale data obtained at a 'Wall of Wind' facility, is presented.

풍동시험의 벽면효과 보정방법이 풍동시험 조건에서 수행된 전산해석결과에 적용되었다. 보정을 마친 양력계수는 벽면이 없는 조건에서 수행된 전산해석 결과와 잘 일치하지만 보정된 항력계수는 벽면효과가 제거된 결과와 약간의 차이를 보인다.

Background : The authors have modified the method of Ravitch technique. Material and Method ; This technique was applied to 6 patients out of 18 patients who underwent corrective surgery from May 1987 to July 1999. The technique is quite different from that of Ravitch. We did not divide the intercostal muscle bundles from the laterals of sternum and the Akin's struts were placed retrosternally crossing the chest horizontally to prevent flail motion during immediate post-operative period and retraction of the sternum afterwards. Anterior sternal osteotomy instead of the posterior one was performed for the latest 3 cases which made operative procedure more simple and easy. The struts were removed one year later. Result : Compared to the hospital stay of the patients who received standard Ravitch method that of the six cases who received our modification was definitely shortened from 13.1 days to 8.3 days(p<0.0000). Flail motion was not noted in any patient and chest wall stability was obtained more easily with this technique. Conclusion : Our modification is recommendable for correction of funnel chest in regards to shorter operation time better chest wall stability shorter hospital stay and less complication.

Facial skeletal remodeling was revolutionized more than 30 years ago, by the work of Tessier and other craniofacial surgeons. However, the need to correct the skeleton in the upper third of the face is not frequently diagnosed or treated in aesthetic facial surgery. Here, we report on the aesthetic correction of a protrusive forehead. A patient visited our hospital for aesthetic contouring with a prominent forehead. The anterior wall of the frontal sinus was removed with a craniotome via the bicoronal approach. After the excised bone was repositioned, it was fixed with a titanium mesh plate and screws. An electric burr was used to contour the supraorbital rim and frontal bone. Once the desired shape was achieved, the periosteum was replaced, and the wound was closed in layers. When performed properly, frontal sinus contouring could significantly improve the appearance in patients with a prominent forehead. Plastic surgeons must carefully evaluate patients with a prominent forehead for skeletal remodeling that involves the accurate and safe repositioning of the anterior wall of the frontal sinus.
