Optical microscope was used to observe the difference of safranine penetration in Pinus densiflora, Pinus rigida, Pinus koraiensis and Larix kaempferi grown in Korea. It was found that Pinus koraiensis contained the highest number of ray parenchyma and ray tracheids. In longitudinal direction, latewood penetration was found higher than that of earlywood. The number of resin canals was found highest in Pinus koraiensis and lowest in Pinus rigida. The resin canal conducted safranine higher than longitudinal tracheids. In longitudinal direction, safranine diffused from longitudinal tracheid to ray parenchyma through the cross-field pits and from the longitudinal resin canal to ray parenchyma or longitudinal tracheid. Safranine diffused from longitudinal tracheid to its neighboring tracheid through bordered pit or ray parenchyma through the cross-field pits.

In this paper, we present a method to estimate an accurate real-time sound source direction based on time delay of arrival by using generalized cross correlation with four cross-type microphones. In general, existing systems have two disadvantages such as system embedding limitation due to the necessity of data acquisition for signal processing from microphone input, and real-time processing difficulty because of the increased number of channels for sound direction estimation using DSP processors. To cope with these disadvantages, the system considered in this paper proposes hardware design for enhanced real-time processing using microphone array signal processing. An accurate direction estimation and its design time reduction is achieved by means of an efficient hardware design using spatial segmentation methods and verification techniques. Finally we develop a system which can be used for embedded systems using a sound codec and an FPGA chip. According to experimental results, the system gives much faster real-time processing time compared with either PC-based systems or the case with DSP processors.

To propose a basic material that can improve the crumples in the knee area and can be applied as an element of garment design, the present study examined the elongation rates of the samples by differentiating the number of cutting lines according to the direction of the fabric, and then determined the puckering phenomenon by judging the conditions of the seams based on the looks of seam lines after bi-axil elongation. After the subjective evaluation on the knee areas of both the standard and modified trousers, the following conclusion was drawn : The elongation rates of the samples are: warp (3.98%)cross-legged (-0.2)>squatting down (-0.4); those in the modified trousers feel more comfortable when sitting on a chair (0.2)>cross-legged (0)>squatting down (-0.6). In the cross-legged posture, the modified trousers (0) has higher scores in the subjective evaluation than the standard ones (-0.2). The evaluation on the looks of needleworks in the samples with cutting lines along the direction of the fabric: weft2 (5.0)

In the present work, cross-roll rolling was carried out using a rolling mill in which the roll axis is tilted by $7.5^{\circ}$ towards the transverse direction of the rolled sample. The evolution of strain states during cross-roll rolling was investigated by three-dimensional finite element method (FEM) simulation. Parallel to cross-roll rolling, normal-rolling using a conventional rolling mill was also carried out in the same rolling condition for clarifying the effect of cross-roll rolling. It turned out that three shear rate components were all introduced to the rolled sample by the cross-roll rolling process, while only one shear rate component operated during normal-rolling.

This paper suggests a new experimental system and protocol of mechanical analysis for arterial cross-section research. So far, most methods of arterial studies have been focused on the deformation measurement in longitudinal and circumferential direction. The deformation in radial direction has been theoretically assumed by Poisson's ratio and/or the incompressibility of arterial wall. Also, the radial gradient of strains are neglected. In fact, the radial deformation and radial gradient of strains against blood pressure are important to be observed in the pathological point of view of artery. Proposed experimental system and protocol are to measure the deformation of cross-sectional artery. Also, this method enables to measure the deformation of anterior, posterior, and side site of cross-sectional area. It is meaningful to correlate the mechanically experimented data with pathological data of athroscIerotic artery.

The experimental analysis on a ducted fan for the propulsion system of a small UAV were performed. To investigate the aerodynamic characteristics of the ducted fan, flow fields at inlet and outlet were measured using a hot-wire anemometry. Thrusts were measured with the six-component balance with due regard to the cross wind. To reproduce the cross wind effect, the ducted fan was aligned to $90^{\circ}$ rotated direction against flow direction in the wind tunnel. In this paper, the variation of the flow fields and thrust according to the cross wind were analyzed.

As the wireless communications are gradually developed, the higher frequency is demanded and the smaller the size of antenna shall be reduced by the wavelength of the operating frequency. However, the smaller the size of antenna becomes, the less the gain is obtained according to the frequency, so that a new attempt such as an array antenna has been examined to improve the characteristics. Also, for the convenience of communication, the omni-directional property is required. In this paper, two antennas system which is aligned in cross direction in tested and analyzed. The main scope is focused to get an appropriated distance between the two small antennas to get better properties. There are various ways of array arrangement, but in this study, it should be placed on the same PCB for easy implementation and the direction of each antenna are aligned to be a cross($90^{\circ}$) position. The study is carried out by comparing the radiation patterns mainly, and the theoretical expectation and the computer simulation are also executed. The final model is the folded IF-antennas system printed on PCB and the ideal dipole-antenna arrangement in also test to verify the possibility of our implementation. And it is finally proved by measuring experiments.

Resource and energy saving is a very important practice for the future as well as for today. Weight saving of structural parts, which are formed by extrusion, plays a key role in manufacturing field. The cross-sections of extruded parts with industrial aluminum are constant in the axial direction by conventional extrusion method. Especially, these aluminum parts used and manufactured in the car industry need other processes to vary the cross-section in the axial direction. However, applications of these parts are often limited by high cost. If the cross-section of the parts is variable by only extrusion with newly developed method, the application of extruded aluminum parts will actually increase. Therefore, a new CNC extruder that can control the section area of a car part was invented for the first time in the nation. Using the extrusion machine, the experiment was performed to validate its workability during the variable section extrusion process. Also, numerical analysis was carried out to investigate the flow mode with different speeds of main ram and various pocket shapes of a die-set in the variable section extrusion process.

Objective: The aims of this study were to assess the direction and degree of lip-line cant in Korean adult orthodontic patients and to identify the effects of sex and age on changes in the cant severity. Methods: In this cross-sectional retrospective study, lip-line cant was measured in the frontal photographs of 585 Korean patients (92 men and 493 women) aged 18-48 years. The outcome variables (direction and degree of lip-line cant) were assessed in terms of predictor variables (sex, age, sagittal skeletal relationship, and menton deviation angle). Results: The direction of lip-line cant did not differ according to sex, age, or skeletal classification. Patients had $1.6^{\circ}$ of lip-line cant on average before orthodontic treatment. Middle-aged adults displayed a significant trend toward a lower degree of lip-line cant compared to younger adults (p < 0.01). Multiple linear regression analysis showed that the degree of lip-line cant was weakly negatively correlated with age (p < 0.001). Conclusions: While the direction of lip-line cant did not differ according to the parameters explored here, the degree of cant was correlated with age in adults, independent of menton deviation. Specifically, middle-aged adults tended to display significantly lower degrees of lip-line cant than did younger adults.

A laboratory experiment using artificial fracture rocks was used to understand the 3-dimensional dispersion of a tracer and the mixing process in a fractured network. In this experiment, 12cm polystyrene foam cubes with two electrodes for monitoring electric conductivity (EC) were used as artificial fractured rocks. Distilled water with 0.5mS/m was used as a tracer in water with 35mS/m and the difference of EC between the tracer and the water was monitored by a multipoint simultaneous measurement system of electrical resistance. The results showed that even if the fracture arrangement pattern was not straight in the direction of the flow, the tracer did not diffuse along individual fractures and an oval tracer plume, which was the distribution of tracer concentrations, tended to be form in the direction of the flow. The vertical cross section of the tracer distribution showed small diffusivity in the vertical direction. The calculated total tracer volume passing through each measurement point in the horizontal cross section showed while that the solute passed through measurement points near the direction of hydraulic gradient and in other directions, the passed tracer volumes were small. Using Peclet number as a criterion, it was found that the mass distribution at the fracture intersection was controlled in the stage of transition between the complete mixing model and the streamline routing model.
