Type Ⅰ thyuroplasty in conjunction with arytenoid adduction is one of the excellent techniques in the treatment of unilateral vocal fold paralysis. But perioperative objective evaluation of the patients is difficult. With the development of the videostroboscopy and image analysis program, we could quantify the Glottal Area Waveform(GAW) in patients with unilateral vocal fold paralysis and investigated the relationship between the glottal area and aerodynamic and acoustic parameters. Eight female patients who were performed type Ⅰ thyroplasty in conjunction with arytenoid adduction and 5 females with normal vocal function were involved in this study. Preoperative and postoperative videostroboscopy and vocal function study wire performed. GAW was analysed quantitatively with image analysis program (Kay Stroboscope Image analysis, KSIP) Peak Glottal Area(PGA), Baseline Offset(BO), and Closing Phase(CP) were increased in patients with unilateral vocal fold paralysis and they were reduced after the operation. Mean flow Rate (MFR) was well correlated with the PGA in normal control group and unilateral vocal fold paralysis patients. Noise to harmonic ratio(NHR) was correlated with PGA only in preoperative unilateral vocal fold paralysis patients. In conclusion quantitative measurement of the GAW is useful method in evaluation of unilateral vocal f31d paralysis patients.

The author obtained the trans cranial radiographs of right and left side and the individualized lateral tomograms of right and left side after the analysis of submental vertex view from 8 young adults of 25-32 years with normal occlusion. The condylar position from 32 radiographs of normal TMJs were assessed with each measurement methods. All datas from these analyses were recorded and statistically processed with CYBER computer system. The results were obtained as follows. 1. In each measurement methods, the area measurements using the midpoint fossa and the midpoint condyle revealed the hightest concordance rate between the radiographic pairs. 2. In the subjective evaluation, the qualitative concordance existed in 44% and the full concordance existed in 25%, so it was found that concordance rates were relatively low between the radiographic pairs. 3. In each measurement methods, the area measurement using the midpoint fossa revealed the strongest correlation between the radiographic pairs. 4. The correlations between the area measurement using the midpoint fossa and subjective valuation revealed relatively strong value which is 0.926 in the trans cranial radiographic series and the lowest value which is 0.743 in the tomographic series.

The deep ocean engineering basin (DOEB) of the Korea Research Institute of Ship and Ocean Engineering (KRISO) is equipped with an extreme-environment reproduction facility that can analyze the motion characteristics of offshore structures and ships. In recent years, there have been requirements for a wide range of six-degree-of-freedom (6-DOF) motion measurements for performing maneuvering tests and free-running tests of target objects (offshore structures or ships). This study introduces the process of developing a wide-area motion measurement technology by incorporating the auto-tracking technology of the towing carriage system to overcome the existing 6-DOF motion measurement limitation. To realize a wide range of motion measurements, the automatic tracking control system of the towing carriage in the DOEB was designed as a speed control method. To verify the control performance, the characteristics of the towing carriage according to the variation in control gain were analyzed. Finally, a wide range of motions was tested using a model test object (a remotely operated vehicle (ROV)), and the wide-area motion measurement technology was implemented using an automatic tracking control system for a towing carriage.

1. The purpose of this experiment was to compose the precision of dot grid method and transects method with that of pianimeter method in area measurement. 2. The following conclusions were obtained through study on precision of area measurement of 20 plots. 3. The percentage error of each method was none significant in comparision with planimeter method. 4. The dot grid method gave 0.2% of overestimated value and the transects method 0.67% of underestimated value. 5. Accordingly, the dot grid method gave the better result than the transects method. 6. The transects method had small errors at the plots larger than 30ha. while it had big errors at plots smaller than 30ha. Therefore, it can be said that the transects method is suitable for area measurement of plots larger than 30 hectares.

The epistemological obstacles in the area learning of plane figure can be categorized into two types that is closely related to an attribute of measurement and is strongly connected with unit square. First, reasons for the obstacle related to an attribute of measurement are that 'area' is in conflict. with 'length' and the definition of 'plane figure' is not accordance with that of 'measurement'. Second, the causes of epistemological obstacles related to unit square are that unit square is not a basic unit to students and students have little understanding of the conception of the two dimensions. Thus, To overcome the obstacle related to an attribute of measurement, students must be able to distinguish between 'area' and 'length' through a variety of measurement activities. And, the definition of area needs to be redefined with the conception of measurement. Also, the textbook should make it possible to help students to induce the formula with the conception of 'array' and facilitate the application of formula in an integrated way. Meanwhile, To overcome obstacles related to unit square, authentic subject matter of real life and the various shapes of area need to be introduced in order for students to practice sufficient activities of each measure stage. Furthermore, teachers should seek for the pedagogical ways such as concrete manipulable activities to help them to grasp the continuous feature of the conception of area. Finally, it must be study on epistemological obstacles for good understanding. As present the cause and the teaching implication of epistemological obstacles through the research of epistemological obstacles, it must be solved.

A variable air-gap type system is widely used for inductive precision position measurement systems. This type transducer has high sensitivity but lacks a linear measurement range due to structural nonlinearity. Furthermore, as measurement range increases, linearity error is also increased. The alternative is a variable overlap-area type system. The sensitivity of this type is determined by the initial air-gap dimension, keeps the original value and does not deteriorate linearity in spite of the variations of the measuring range.

In the mammography, X-ray beam quality is one of the most important factors. Using X-ray mammography unit model GE/CGR Senography 600T Senix H.F, Authors studied four subjects. 1. The aluminum attenuation rate in 30 kVp when used with or without compression plate. 2. HVLs at 5 different area of the X-ray field of $26{\sim}32kVp$. 3. HVLs to know the influence of corrected measurement or parallel measurement. 4. Film density with microdensitometer along and cross to the long axis of X-ray tube, in terms of the Heel effect in the X-ray field. The following results were obtained. 1. Beam quality of anode area was harder than cathode area. 2. The dose reduction rate of compression plate was approximately $65.5%{\sim}88.1%$ and the beam quality with compression plate was hardened up to 4kVp accordingly. 3. If the X-ray beam enters the attenuation plate obliquely, HVL was $2.6{\sim}2.9%$ harder than perpendicular to it. 4. Because of heel effect, the film density of cathode area is higher than anode area to film density of 0.5.

measuring surface area errors can be brought about with different measuring people. This study aims at eliminating such errors in measurement. With measures by 3 people whose experience varies from person to person, the existing area measuring method using a planimeter and two other methods which use a computer (one using a digitizer and the other using a scanner) have been analyzed and compared. Three methods have not shown a meaningful difference in respect to the value" of area and two methods other than the one using a scanner have shown a meaningful difference among 3 measuring people. Therefore, we propose the method using a scanner by image processing should be a more improved one for area measuring. The arguments for that are as fllows. 1. The operation for measurement is simple and it has a high degree of accuracy with few errors. 2. Because different measuring people cause few errors the operation started by one person can be handed over to anyone else and the operation dosen't require previous skill. 3. Once image file is saved, the operation can be performed on several computers at the same time with seperate part on each computer. 4. Three methods have needed nearly the same length of time, but time for the method using a scanner can be reduced on computers with a higher capacity.th a higher capacity.

Riverbed change is greatly influenced by artificial factors such as dam construction, gravel collection, and river improvement. This study simulated a long-term bed change based on the GSTARS3 model using actual data from the area downstream of the Geum River Daecheong Dam and compared the estimation with a section of the actual measurement. As a result, it was found that the section of the actual measurement was far lower than the result of the simulation in terms of long-term bed change. While the area downstream of Daecheong Dam displayed approximately an average of 2.29 m of streambed degradation on average while the upper stream area showed approximately 0.63 m of bed degradation over 24 years. In the simulation of the area downstream of Daecheong Dam based on the GSTARS3 model, similar bed degradation was observed. However, a great difference was detected between the result and the actual measurement. According to the cause analysis, the riverbed in the area downstream of Daecheong Dam has continuously degraded due to the dam construction and mass collection of gravel. The mass collection of gravel was the main cause of riverbed change. It was found that about 76% of all riverbed degradation was caused by the mass collection of gravel.
