일반적으로 호흡연동방사선치료(gated radiation therapy)의 평가를 위해 호흡에 의한 장기의 움직임을 모사하는 움직이는 팬텀(moving phantom)을 사용한다. 표적(target)은 모든 방향으로 움직이기 때문에 모든 방향의 움직임을 고려하여야 한다. 본 연구에서는 감마지표(gamma index) 분석을 통한 호흡연동방사선치료의 평가방법을 제시하고 움직임영역(motion range)에 따른 적절한 연동창(gating window)의 크기를 알아보고자 한다. 두미축(craniocaudal) 방향으로 움직임을 모사하는 팬텀을 제작하였다. 이 팬텀은 움직이는 받침대(moving platform), 2차원 이온전리함배열(I'm MatriXX, IBA Dosimetry, Germany), 및 고체물팬텀(solid water phantom)으로 이루어졌다. 6 MV 에너지의 광자선을 $4{\times}4cm^2$의 조사면(field size)으로 호흡연동방사선치료 시스템을 이용하여 팬텀을 각각 1, 2, 3, 4, 및 5 cm 만큼 움직이도록 하고 방사선을 조사하였다. 연동창은 각각 40~60%, 30~70%, 및 0~90%으로 설정하였다. 2차원 이온전리함배열은 각 시나리오에 따라 선량분포를 획득하였고 $4{\times}4cm^2$ 조사면으로 정지한 상태에서 조사한 선량분포와 비교하였다. 허용범위를 3%/3 mm로 설정하고 감마지표를 계산하였다. 연동창(gating window)의 크기가 클수록 합격률(pass rate)는 낮아졌고, 운동영역(motion range)이 커질수록 합격률은 낮아졌다. 호흡연동방사선치료를 시행하지 않고 운동영역이 2 cm의 병소를 치료할 경우 합격률은 96% 이하로 현저히 떨어졌다. 그러나 호흡연동방사선치료를 시행하면 합격률은 99% 이상으로 올릴 수 있었다. 운동영역이 4 cm 이상일 경우 호흡연동방사선치료를 하더라도 연동창을 30~70%로 선택할 경우 합격률이 97%를 넘지 못하였다. 그러나 연동창을 40~60%를 선택할 경우 합격률은 99% 이상이었다.

In cardiac magnetic resonance imaging (CMRI), heart and respiratory motions are one of main obstacles in obtaining diagnostic quality of images. To synchronize CMRI to the physiological motions, ECG and respiratory gatings are commonly used. In this paper multi-biological signal (ECG, respiratory, and SPO2) based smart trigger system is proposed. By using multi-biological signal, the proposed system is robust to the induced noise such as eddy current when gradient pulsing is continuously applied during the examination. Digital conversion of the multi-biological signal makes the system flexible in implementing smart and intelligent algorithm to detect cardiac and respiratory motion and to reject arrhythmia of the heart. The digital data is used for real-time trigger, as well as signal display, and data storage which may be used for retrospective signal processing.

Semi-solid casting(SSC) of magnesium alloys is increasingly being used to produce high quality components. This process is similar to the injection molding of plastics and is called thixomolding. Using this process, higher strength, thinner wall sections and tighter tolerances without porosity are obtained. The high strength and low weight characteristics of magnesium alloys render the high-precision fabrication of thin-walled components with large surface areas. They are widely used for the IT, auto and consumer electronics industries. However, warpage of the thin-walled sections degrade quality of the parts produced in the SCC process. To produce thin-walled magnesium alloy parts, the geometry of gating system on the quality of the finished products should be clearly studied. In this paper, to minimize warpage of the thin-walled sections, Taguchi method is applied to the optimal design of the gate geometry in the thixomolding process. Width, height, length and angle of the gating system are selected for the robust design parameters. Effectiveness of the robust design is verified through the CAE software.

Usually, the die-cast components used in small mobile devices require finishing processes, such as computer numerically controlled coating. In such cases, porosity is the most important defect. The shape of the molten aluminum that passes through the runner and gate in a mold is the one of the factors that influences gas porosity. To define the spurt index, which numerically indicates the shape of molten aluminum after the gate, Reynolds number and Ohnesorge number are used. Before die fabrication, computer-aided engineering analysis is performed to optimize the filling pattern. Finally, X-ray and surface inspection are performed after casting and machining to evaluate how the spurt index affects porosity and other product parameters. Based on the results obtained herein, a new gating system design process is suggested.

Digital signal processors(DSP) are widely used in modern power conversion devices, ac motor drives. However, generating pulse-width modulation(PWM) gating signals requires so high sampling rates that most computation resources of the DSP must be devoted to generating them. This paper presents an ASIC realization of 2 channel space-vector PWM(SVPWM). The developed DSP(ECLDSP) board can transmit gating signals to 2 converter/inverter and control them. ECLDSP board is used for control the various kinds of power-quality improvement systems.

The mechanical properties of low-pressure die cast (LPDC) A356-T6 automotive road wheels are evaluated and correlated with their corresponding microstructures. In this study, two types of alloy wheels processed using different LPDC gating system are investigated. The yield stress, tensile stress, and elongation values tested at room temperature are correlated with the secondary dendrite arm spacing (SDAS) with respect to the gating system, and are also compared with similar studies. The SDAS and precipitates are examined using optical microscopy, scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and energy-dispersive spectroscopy. The phase information is also investigated using X-ray diffraction. Charpy impact tests are also performed from $-100^{\circ}C$ to $200^{\circ}C$, and the fracture surfaces are examined using SEM. The impact energy is demonstrated to increase with increasing temperatures without exhibiting specific transition behaviors as in other nonferrous alloys. The fracture toughness is also evaluated using three point bend test with single-edged bend specimens. The obtained fracture toughness values are in good agreement with those in similar studies.

In the partial squeeze casting process, the filling behavior of liquid metal and solidification pattern in thick area have significant influence on the quality of casting products and die life. For the optimal casting design of automobile transmission gear housing, various analyses were performed in this study by using computer simulation code, MAGMAsoft and the simulation results were compared and analyzed with experimental results. By air pressure criteria, internal porosities caused by air entrap during the mold filling were predicted and reduced remarkably by modification of gating system. Also, optimal squeeze-time lag to apply partial squeeze pin in thick area was calculated and the castings was free from shrinkage defects with the result of solidification analysis. Consequently, casting design for automobile transmission gear housing was optimized and approved by Computer Tomography.
