Cardiac myxoma is the most common primary tumor of the heart, but right ventricular myxoma causing outflow obstruction is relatively rare. A 15 years old girl developed dyspnea on exertion and intermittent syncope caused by a right ventricular mass obstructing the right ventricle outflow tract. Transthoracic echocardiography revealed $3.6{\times}3.0\;cm$ sized pedunculated subpumonic mass originating from the right ventricular anterior free wall. The patient underwent an emergency operation, consisting of the removal of the mass by wide excision of the tumor base and PTFE (polytetrafluoroethylene) patching of the right ventricular anterior free wall defect. Pathological findings of the mass were compatible with myxoma, and the patient was discharged uneventfully 7 days after the operation.

Owing to an increase in the air tightness of recent buildings, the natural ventilation rate was significantly lowered and the removal of accumulated moisture became difficult in these buildings. The hygrothermal performance of these buildings should be carefully considered to provide comfortable indoor environment by removing the moisture condensation risk and the mold growth potential. In this study, hygrothermal performance of two selected wall structures was investigated based on WUFI simulation program. The results displayed that the indoor temperature had impact on the moisture accumulation in the insulation layer for both modeled walls, showing that lower indoor temperature resulted in higher moisture accumulation, especially in the wood frame structure. Also, the yearly moisture accumulation profile exhibited a downward shift throughout the year by adding a vapour retarder with a lower sd-value. In addition, both of the two walls have condensation risk in winter, due to low temperature level. The wood frame structure has a bigger fluctuation and higher condensation risk than the concrete structure.

Immature teratoma can be viewed as intermediate between mature teratoma and embryonal carcinoma. Unlike the mature teratoma, elements of the three perm cell layers are incompletely differentiated and not arranged in organoid fashion In some area, more mature forms of these tissues may also be seen, Although this tumor is clearly malignant, they may not display clear-cut cytologic features of malignancy. The clinical prognosis is poor. We have experienced one case of recurrent immature teratoma. In first operation[1987, April], tumor of anterior mediastinum was removed with wedge resection of ant. segment of RUL % med. segment of RML. In 2nd operation[1990, June], recurrent teratoma of right inner thoracic wall was resected with partial 5th rib resection and wedge resection of lat. segment of middle lobe. Two months later, the 3rd operation[1990, September] was done, which was a removal of mass on thoracic wall near sup, segment of RLL and partial rib resection of 3rd, 4th & 5th. In November 1990, last operation[4th operation] was made. It was enucleation of walnut sized tumor located between medial segment of RML, and 4th. intercostal space, well encapsulated with endothoracic fascia and invaded into lung parenchyme, Adjuvant chemotherapy was done after each operation, but radiotherapy[5000 Rad] was done only after 1st operation. There was no evidence of recurrence after last operation. The patient is well-being still now.

Conventional apartment building projects have favored wall slab structure for the ease of construction and economic viability. However, wall slab structure, consisting of bearing walls, makes remodeling a difficult challenge. In addition, as the amendment to the Building Act in November, 2005 incentivized easy-to-remodel Rahmen structure design for apartment building in terms of floor area ratio and the number of stories, were are seeing more use of PC construct method in apartment building projects gradually. However, PC construction method requires complex connections between beams and columns, making it difficult to install and remove formwork. Furthermore, it is not possible to reuse forms after removal, generating lots of construction wastes, and it is necessary to install new forms again when the size of connection changes in line with modification of column cross-section. Researchers in Korea and elsewhere in the world have focused on structural performance of connection in PC construction method, with little attention to alternative approaches to improving connection forms for PC construction method. Accordingly, this research aims to study an approach to improving connection forms for PC construction method.

Batch test and column test were performed to develop the design factors for permeable reactive barriers(PRBs) against ammonium and heavy metals, Clinoptilolite, a kind of natural zeolites having excellent cation exchange capacity(CEC), was choosen for the reacting materials through the ion-exchange mechanism. In the batch test, the reactivity of clinoptilolite for ammonium, lead, and copper was examined varying the initial concentration of contaminants(ammonium: 20, 40, 80 ppm, heavy metals: 10, 20, 40 ppm) and the particle size of clinoptilolites(0-0.15, 0.42-0.85, 1-1.25 mm). The reactivity is increasing as the initial concentration decrease and particle size decrease. In the column test, the permeability and the reactivity of the specimens were examined using flexible-wall permeameter. Specimens were made of clinoptilolite and Jumunjin-sand with 20 : 80 weight ratio varying particle size of clinoptilolite. The maximum permeability(1${\times}$10$\^$-4/-5${\times}$10$\^$-5/cm/s) was achieved in the specimen made of 0.42-0.85 mm clinoptilolite and sand.

In the semiconductor industry the memory and chip were developed to high density memory and high performance chip, so circuit design was also high integrated and the test bed was needed to be thin and fine pitch socket. LGA(Land Grid Array) IC socket with thin wall thickness was designed to satisfy this requirement. The LGA IC socket plastic part was manufacture by injection molding process, it was needed accuracy, stiffness and suit resin with high flowability. After injection molding process the side gates were needed to remove for further assembly process. ln this study, the cold press cutting process was applied to remove the gates. For design of punch and die, the cold press cutting analysis was implemented by$DEFORM-2D^{TM}$ ln consideration of the simulation results, an adequate punch and die was designed and made for the cutting unit. In order to verify the performance of cutting process, the roughness of cutting section of the part was measured and was satisfied in requirement.

This is a case report of successful surgical correction of coarctation of the aorta associated with the patent ductus arteriosus and the persistent left superior vena cava. The patient was a 15 year old girl and congenital heart anomaly was suspected at the sixth month after birth. Afterward there has been no embarrassing symptoms until the day of operation except slight dyspnea on exertion, The diagnosis of coarctation of the aorta and the patent ductus arteriesus detected by physical signs and X-ray studies including aortography. In the first place, coarctation of the aorta was corrected with following procedure: partial resections of the aortic wall just above and below the coarctating line of the aorta and removal of diaphragmatic structure of coarctation performed by. cross clamping aorta above and below coarctation, and then the defect of the aortic wall was closed by lateral aortorrhapic suture with atraumatic needle 3-0 silk continuously [Fig. 6]. In the second place, the patent ductus arteriosus was closed with double ligation method. The persistent left superior vena cava left as it has been, because there has been no evidence of hemodynamic abnormal shunt. After operation, excellent result was obtained; blood pressure in the upper and lower extremities was normalized and subjective complains of hypertension in the upper extremity was disappeared.

The external reactor vessel cooling (ERVC) is well known strategy to mitigate a severe accident at which nuclear fuel inside the reactor vessel is molten. In order to compare the heat removal capacity of ERVC between the nuclear reactor designs quantitatively, numerical method is often used. However, the study for ERVC using computational fluid dynamics (CFD) is still quite scarce. As a validation study on the numerical prediction for ERVC using CFD, the subcooled boiling flow and natural circulation of coolant at the ULPU-V experiment was simulated. The commercially available CFD software ANSYS-CFX was used. Shear stress transport (SST) model and RPI model were used for turbulence closure and wall-boiling, respectively. The averaged flow velocities in the downcomer and the baffle entry under the reactor vessel lower plenum are in good agreement with the available experimental data and recent computational results. Steam generated from the heated wall condenses rapidly and coolant flows maintains single-phase flow until coolant boils again by flashing process due to the decrease of saturation temperature induced by higher elevation. Hence, the flow rate of coolant natural circulation does not vary significantly with the change of heat flux applied at the reactor vessel, which is also consistent with the previous literatures.

This study illustrates a prototype proposal and its evaluation for the development of floor plans in the condominium housing remodeling. For this I evaluated the survey of the residents of the 'K' town in Joonge-dong, Nowon-gu, Seoul, against the proposal which was developed based on the resident's pre-survey. The result includes that the residents' preference for community actions such as the removal of fences which are reviewed as negative, whereas the introduction of a fitness center and community facilities in the library are reviewed as positive. The residents preferred the open space by the piloti structure, although which is the wall column structure, where they anticipated a rest area, sports facilities, and bicycle drop-off spots. The sidewall proposal in the main building and the full use of the roof floor were underestimated in terms of design concept. The research also illustrated the residents' desired space planning options, those tending to use of space 'B type', personalization 'C type' and spatial size 'A type'. Residents responded positively to the introduction of the 'Alpha' space in which two households share one space that could be used for multiple purposes such as a rest area, an environment-friendly garden, and hobby room, etc, and also there is another possibility it plays an important role to the sociality in community.
