Hypertrophic pyloric stenosis (HPS) is the most common infantile surgical condition and the standard treatment is open pyloromyotomy. Recently, laparoscopic techniques have rapidly advanced, and the laparoscopic approach has become widely adopted by pediatric surgeons. The aim of this study was to compare the clinical outcomes between open and laparoscopic pyloromyotomy. We retrospectively evaluated outcomes of pyloromyotomy for HPS by the open (OP) and the laparoscopic (LP) method. The procedures were performed at the Samsung Medical Center between September 2001 and March 2009. We analyzed patient age, sex, birth weight, length of hospital stay, postoperative length of stay (LOS), operating time, time to feeding commencement, postoperative vomiting frequency, the time to full feeding without vomiting, and surgical complications. A total of 54 patients were included in the study. There were 26 OP and 28 LP patients. There was no statistically significant difference in age, sex, birth weight, operating time, postoperative emesis. In contrast, postoperative LOS in the LP group was statistically significantly shorter than that in the OP group (2.0 vs. 3.3 days, p=0.0003) and time to full feeding was significantly shorter following LP. (p=0.018) There were no wound complications. Laparoscopic pyloromyotomy significantly reduced postoperative LOS and time to full feeding compared to open pyloromyotomy.

본 연구의 목적은 레스토랑 종사자의 집단응집성이 조직몰입과 이직의도에 미치는 영향관계를 분석하고, 또한 고용 형태(풀타임 vs 파트타임 종사자)에 따라 조직몰입과 이직의도가 달라지는지를 파악하고자 하였다. 집단응집성은 조직몰입에 유의적인 정(+)의 영향 관계가, 이직의도에는 유의적인 부(-)의 영향관계가 있음을 알 수 있었다. 그리고, 집단응집성과 이직의도 간에 조직몰입은 부분매개역할을 하고 있었으며, 집단응집성과 조직몰입 및 이직의도 간의 관계에서 고용 형태는 조절역할을 하지 않는 것으로 나타났다.

In space weather forecast, it is important to determine three-dimensional properties of CMEs. Using 29 limb CMEs, we examine which cone type is close to a CME three-dimensional structure. We find that most CMEs have near full ice-cream cone structure which is a symmetrical circular cone combined with a hemisphere. We develop a full ice-cream cone model based on a new methodology that the full ice-cream cone consists of many flat cones with different heights and angular widths. By applying this model to 12 SOHO/LASCO halo CMEs, we find that 3D parameters from our method are similar to those from other stereoscopic methods (i.e., a triangulation method and a Graduated Cylindrical Shell model). In addition, we derive CME mean density (${\bar{\rho}_{CME}}={\frac{M_{total}}{V_{cone}}}$) based on the full ice-cream cone structure. For several limb events, we determine CME mass by applying the Solarsoft procedure (e.g., cme_mass.pro) to SOHO/LASCO C3 images. CME volumes are estimated from the full ice-cream cone structure. For the first time, we derive average CME densities as a function of CME height for several CMEs, which are well fitted to power-law functions. We will compare densities (front and average) of geoeffective CMEs and their corresponding ICME ones.

In order to verify the analytical methods predicting failure behavior of cracked piping, full-scale pipe tests are crucial in nuclear power plant piping. For this reason, series of international test programs have been conducted. However, full-scale pipe tests require expensive testing equipment and long period of testing time. The objective of this paper is to develop a test system which can economically simulate the full-scale pipe test regarding the integrity evaluation. This system provides the failure behavior of cracked pipe by testing a wide-plate specimen. The system provides the failure behavior of cracked pipe by testing a wide-plate specimen. The system was developed for the integrity evaluation of nuclear piping based on the methodology of hardware-in-the-loop (HiL) simulation. Using this simulator, the piping integrity can be evaluated based on the elastic-plastic behavior of full-scale pipe, and the high cost full-scale pipe test may be replaced with this economical system.

The objective of the present work is to develop a time-domain numerical method of broadband noise in a cascade of airfoils. This paper focuses on dipolar broadband noise sources, resulting from the interaction of turbulent inflows with the flat-plate airfoil cascade. The turbulence response of a two-dimensional cascade is studied by solving both of the linearised and the full nonlinear Euler equations employing accurate higher order spatial differencing, time stepping techniques and non-reflecting inflow/outflow boundary condition. The time-domain result using the linearised Euler equations shows good agreement with the analytical solution using the modified LINSUB code. Through the comparison of the nonlinear time-domain result using the full nonlinear Euler equations with the linear, it is found that the acoustic mode amplitude of the nonlinear response is less than that of the linear response due to the energy cascade from low frequency components to the high frequency ones. Considering the merits of the time-domain methods over the typical time-linearised frequency-domain analysis, the current method is expected to be promising tools for analyzing the effects of the airfoil shapes, non-uniform background flow, linear-nonliear regimes on the broadband noise due to turbulence-cascade interaction.

In harbour the practical shiphandlers should have a expert knowledge of systematically reducing head-way and keeping ship's positions to the final position with confidence and under control. But now in the practical approaches we do not have any special maneuvers of controlling the ship effi-ciently regarding the headway and approaches except some existing reduction of speeds according to the Weight-to-Power Ratio, use of astern power and Rudder Cycling. Consequently this study put Woo's Super Rudder Controlling originally developed by Captain Woo, Ph. D. to practical use as a special maneuvers in the port approaches. The conclusions of this paper are drawn as follows : 1) Optimum standard and desirable controls in combination of three engine speeds with three yaw ang-les were proposed for the practical shiphandlers, 2) According to simulation of the pilotships the Super advances are 10.5 ship lengths for Full full full maneuvers, and 7.9 ship lengths for Full half maneuvers approximately, 3) Approach maneuvers to anchorages by trying Woo's Super Rudder Controlling saved about 30% of total standby time in comparison with the existing Weight-to-Power Ratio maneuvers in the Pusan and Kwang Yang ports.

This paper presents a high frequency design approach for improving efficiency over a wide load range in the self-driven phase-shifted full-bridge converters for server power systems. In the proposed approach, a detailed ZVS analysis of the lagging leg switches in both the continuous conduction mode (CCM) and the discontinuous conduction mode (DCM) is presented. The optimum dead time and the determination of the appropriate operation mode are given for high efficiency according to the load conditions. Finally, the optimum operation conditions are defined to achieve a high-efficiency. A laboratory prototype operating at 80 kHz, rated 1 kW (12 V-83.3 A), is built to verify proposed theoretical analysis and evaluations. The experimental results show that the maximum efficiency is achieved as 95% and 83.5% at full load and 5% load conditions, respectively.

The application of A.C. motor to servo system is rapidly increased according to the recent advance of power electronics and digital control techniques. The induction motor which has a simple structure and needs less maintenance is used in the industrial field for the variable speed and position control recently. In this paper, the current characteristic of the full-bridge resonant inverter is studied by comparing with the computer simulation and the laboratory experiment when the ratio of forced frequency to the natural frequency and the ratio of conduction time to the period at the given frequency is changed. And then, the full-bridge resonant inverter is applied to the speed control of single phase induction motor.

A dadaptive refinement tetrahedron mesh has been presented for using in full band GaAs monte carlo simulation. A uniform tetrahedron mesh is used without regard to energy values and energy variety in case of the past full band simulation. For the uniform tetrahedron mesh, a fine tetrahedron is demanded for keeping up accuracy of calculation in the low energy region such as .GAMMA.-valley, but calculation time is vast due to usin gthe same tetrahedron in the high energy region. The mesh of this study, thererfore, is consisted of the fine mesh in the low energy and large variable energy region and rough mesh n the high energy. The density of states (DOS) calculated with this mesh is compared with the one of the uniform mesh. The DOS of this mesh is improved th efive times or so in root mean square error and the ten times in the correlation coefficient than the one of a uniform mesh. This refinement mesh, therefore, can be used a sthe basic mesh for the full band GaAs monte carlo simulation.
