최근 한반도 및 주변해역에서 발생한 규모 4.8 이상의 5개 중규모 지진으로부터 관측된 속도 지반운동 파형을 이용하여 수평 응답스펙트럼을 분석하고 결과를 우선 가속도 지반운동을 이용하여 얻어진 수평 응답스펙트럼, 국내 원자력 관련 구조물의 내진설계 기준, 마지막으로 국내 일반 구조물 및 건축물 내진설계기준과 각각 비교하였다. 연구에 이용된 지반운동은 수평성분 102개(NS 및 EW 성분 포함)이며 고유진동수에 따른 응답을 구하고 각각의 최대 지반 속도 값을 이용하여 정규화 분석을 수행하였다. 첫째, 가속도 응답스펙트럼과 비교한 결과 속도 응답스펙트럼 값은 특히 중간주기에서 높은 응답을 보여 주었고 이에 비해 가속도 응답스펙트럼은 특히 단주기 즉 높은 고유진동수 영역에서 높은 응답을 보여 주었다. 둘째, 국내 원자력시설물의 내진기준으로 이용되고 있는 Reg. Guide 1.60과 비교한 결과 속도 응답스펙트럼 값은 약 6-7Hz를 시작점으로 보다 낮은 장주기 영역에서 기준값을 초과하는 현상을 보여 주었다. 셋째, 500년 재래주기에 해당하는 국내 일반 구조물 및 건축물 내진설계기준인 표준 설계응답스펙트럼을 SC, SD 및 SE지반 조건과 같은 3개 지반조건과 동시에 비교한 결과 차례로 약 1.5초, 2초 및 3초에서 시작하여 보다 장주기 영역에서 국내 일반 구조물 표준 설계 응답스펙트럼값을 초과하였다. 동일한 부지에서 일반적으로 가속도 응답스펙트럼은 단주기에서 가장 큰 값을 나타내며, 속도 응답 스펙트럼은 중간주기에서 가장 크며, 마지막으로 변위 응답스펙트럼은 장주기에서 가장 큰 값을 가진다는 국외 연구결과가 국내 지반운동을 이용한 결과에서 역시 적용가능하다는 점을 확인시켜 주었다. 최근 국내에서도 건축물의 초고층화 등으로 구조물의 디자인이 기존의 단주기에 비해 중간주기 및 장주기 영역이 상대적으로 강조되고 있어 이러한 중간주기영역에서 수평 응답스펙트럼의 정보는 향후 대단히 중요하다고 할 수 있다.

집중강우 시 육상으로부터 다량으로 유입된 부유쓰레기는 사회, 경제적 및 환경적으로 부정적인 영향을 주고 있으나 부유쓰레기 집적 구간 및 발생량에 대한 모니터링 체계는 미흡한 실정이다. 최근 인공지능 기술의 발달로 드론 영상과 딥러닝 기반 객체탐지 모델을 활용하여 수계 내 광범위한 지역을 신속하고 효율적인 연구의 필요성이 요구되고 있다. 본 연구에서는 육상기인 부유쓰레기의 효율적인 탐지 기법을 제시하기 위해 드론 영상뿐만 아니라 다양한 이미지를 확보하여 You Only Look Once (YOLO)v5s와 최근에 개발된 YOLO7 및 YOLOv8s로 학습하여 모델별로 성능을 비교하였다. 각 모델의 정성적인 성능 평가 결과, 세 모델 모두 일반적인 상황에서 탐지성능이 우수한 것으로 나타났으나, 이미지의 노출이 심하거나 수면의 태양광 반사가 심한 경우 YOLOv8s 모델에서 대상물을 누락 또는 중복 탐지하는 사례가 나타났다. 정량적인 성능 평가 결과, YOLOv7의 mean Average Precision (intersection over union, IoU 0.5)이 0.940으로 YOLOv5s (0.922)와 YOLOvs8(0.922)보다 좋은 성능을 나타냈다. 데이터 품질에 따른 모델의 성능 비교하기 위해 색상 및 고주파 성분에 왜곡을 발생시킨 결과, YOLOv8s 모델의 성능 저하가 가장 뚜렷하게 나타났으며, YOLOv7 모델이 가장 낮은 성능 저하 폭을 보였다. 이를 통해 수면 위에 존재하는 부유쓰레기 탐지에 있어서 YOLOv7 모델이 YOLOv5s와 YOLOv8s 모델에 비해 강인한 모델임을 확인하였다. 본 연구에서 제안하는 딥러닝 기반 부유쓰레기 탐지 기법은 부유쓰레기의 성상별 분포 현황을 공간적으로 파악할 수 있어 향후 정화작업 계획수립에 기여할 수 있을 것으로 판단된다.

이 연구는 국산 농기계의 내수 및 수출 경쟁력 제고방안을 도출하고자, 최근 5년간 한국과 일본산의 핵심 농기계에 대한 가격과 시장점유율을 분석하고, 양국 종합형업체의 매출액, 연구개발비 및 특허출원 현황을 분석하고, 높은 시장점유율을 보인 양국 핵심 농기계 대표모델의 성능, 품질 및 가격을 분석하였다. 2016년 우리나라의 4대 농기계 제조사의 연 매출 규모는 1,984-5,249억 원으로, 일본 주요 제조사의 2.7-15.7% 수준이다. 내수시장에서 일본산 농기계의 시장점유율은 트랙터 14.5%, 콤바인 31.1%, 이앙기 35.8%로 확대일로에 있는 것으로 분석되었다. 트랙터의 규격별 가격과 시장점유율을 분석한 결과, 국산 트랙터는 80 ps급 이상 대형일수록 가격경쟁력이 떨어질 뿐만 아니라 시장점유률도 감소하였다. 국산 콤바인의 시장점유율은 자탈형 4조식과 6조식에서 증가하였으나, 가장 많이 공급된 5조식 콤바인(전체의 49.0%를 차지)은 지난 5년간 85.0%에서 60.7%로 감소하였다. 이는 국산 5조식 콤바인 가격이 일본산의 90.7-108.6%로 가격경쟁력 약화에 기인한 것으로 판단된다. 6조식 이앙기(전체의 88.7%를 차지)중에서 국산이 62.6-68.0%를 유지하는 것으로 분석되었다. 국산 6조식 가격은 일본산의 83.1-85.5% 수준으로 가격 경쟁력이 있지만, 가격 차이가 3,690-4,420천원에 불과하여 시장 점유율이 확대되지 못한 것으로 판단된다. 국내 종합형업체의 농기계부문 매출액은 일본 종합형업체의 2.7-15.7%로 크게 낮고, 종업원 1인당 매출액은 일본의 43.9-81.5%에 불과하여 낮은 생산성을 보이고 있다. 연구원 수는 일본의 13.2-28.1%로 낮았으나, 종업원수 대비 연구원수 비율은 145-176.5%로 오히려 더 높았다. 또한 매출액 대비 연구개발비의 비중은 일본 구보다사 보다 123.1-153.8%로 높게 나타났다. 또한, 국내 농기계 산업과 내수시장을 위협하고 있는 일본 제조사의 국내 특허등록은 2010년 이후 급속한 증가세로, 2016년 기준으로 트랙터의 58.5%, 콤바인의 79.9%, 이앙기의 69.8%를 차지하고 있어 기술권리성 확보가 심각한 상태이다. 특히 핵심 농기계에 대해 일본의 국내 특허등록은 주요 핵심기술에 집중되었는데, 트랙터는 본체·변속장치에 37%, 콤바인은 본체·탈곡장치에 54%, 이앙기는 본체에 57%가 집중된 것으로 분석되었다. 따라서 기술권리성 확보 및 내수시장 방어를 위해 제조사의 자체 연구개발비를 증액과 더불어 정부지원 R&D와 특허의 정량적인 출원·등록을 연계하는 제도적 보완 및 지원확대가 필요하다. 국내에서 높은 시장점유율을 보인 양국 핵심 농기계 대표모델의 성능, 품질 및 가격, 가격차이(국산-수입산)/농가소득, 시장점유율을 분석한 결과, 일본산 트랙터의 가격은 국산 대비 130.8-136.3% 고가이고, 농가소득 대비 가격차이율은 37.6%, 시장점유율은 0.1-0.2%를 보였다. 콤바인은 가격 92.0-110.2%에서 가격차이율 -14.2-18.3%와 시장점유율 6.2-8.1%를, 이앙기는 각각 117.0-120.4%, 9.9-11.9%, 5.5-16.1%를 보여, 시장점유율은 농기계의 가격과 농가소득 대비 가격차이 비율에 높은 영향을 받는 것으로 나타났다. 농기계의 경쟁력 강화를 위해서는 단기적으로 고장이 적어야 한다. 내수시장에서 국산 농기계는 가격대비 품질이 낮고 고장빈도가 높아 농가로부터 신뢰성과 시장점유율이 크게 감소하였다. 따라서 고장빈도가 높은 부품의 내구성 향상과 고품질 부품 개발, 부품 표준화 등을 담당하는 전문연구기관의 설립이 필요하다. 또한 중장기적으로 현재까지의 선진기술 추격과 응용기술 개발에서 탈피하여 핵심 요소기술개발에 역점을 두어야한다. 이를 위한 기술 로드맵 수립, 산학연 협력 확대와 정부의 연구개발비 증액, 산업체의 구조조정과 기술혁신이 필요하다.

경제성장과 산업 발전에 따라 반도체 제품부터 SMT 제품, 전기 배터리 제품에 이르기 까지 많은 전자통신 부품들의 제조과정에서 발생하는 철, 알루미늄, 플라스틱 등의 이물질로 인해 제품이 제대로 동작하지 않거나, 전기 배터리의 경우 화재를 발생하는 문제까지 심각한 문제로 이어질 가능성이 있다. 이러한 문제를 해결하기 위해 초음파나 X-ray를 이용한 비파괴 방법으로 제품 내부에 이물질이 있는지 판단하여 문제의 발생을 차단하고 있으나, X-ray 영상을 취득하여 이물질이 있는지 판정하는 데에도 여러 한계점이 존재한다. 특히. 크기가 작거나 밀도가 낮은 이물질들은 X-Ray장비로 촬영을 하여도 보이지 않는 문제점이 있고, 잡음 등으로 인해 이물들이 잘 안 보이는 경우가 있으며, 특히 높은 생산성을 가지기 위해서는 빠른 검사속도가 필요한데, 이 경우 X-ray 촬영시간이 짧아지게 되면 신호 대비 잡음비율(SNR)이 낮아지면서 이물 탐지 성능이 크게 저하되는 문제를 가진다. 따라서, 본 논문에서는 저화질로 인해 이물질을 탐지하기 어려운 한계를 극복하기 위한 5단계 방안을 제안한다. 첫번째로, Global 히스토그램 최적화를 통해 X-Ray영상의 대비를 향상시키고, 두 번째로 고주파 영역 신호의 구분력을 강화하기 위하여 Local contrast기법을 적용하며, 세 번째로 Edge 선명도 향상을 위해 Unsharp masking을 통해 경계선을 강화하여 객체가 잘 구분되도록 한다, 네 번째로, 잡음 제거 및 영상향상을 위해 Resdual Dense Block(RDB)의 초고해상화 방법을 제안하며, 마지막으로 Yolov5 알고리즘을 이용하여 이물질을 학습한 후 탐지한다. 본 연구에서 제안하는 방식을 이용하여 실험한 결과, 저밀도 영상 대비 정밀도 등의 평가기준에서 10%이상의 성능이 향상된다.

The wall shear stress in the vicinity of end-to end anastomoses under steady flow conditions was measured using a flush-mounted hot-film anemometer(FMHFA) probe. The experimental measurements were in good agreement with numerical results except in flow with low Reynolds numbers. The wall shear stress increased proximal to the anastomosis in flow from the Penrose tubing (simulating an artery) to the PTFE: graft. In flow from the PTFE graft to the Penrose tubing, low wall shear stress was observed distal to the anastomosis. Abnormal distributions of wall shear stress in the vicinity of the anastomosis, resulting from the compliance mismatch between the graft and the host artery, might be an important factor of ANFH formation and the graft failure. The present study suggests a correlation between regions of the low wall shear stress and the development of anastomotic neointimal fibrous hyperplasia(ANPH) in end-to-end anastomoses. 30523 T00401030523 ^x Air pressure decay(APD) rate and ultrafiltration rate(UFR) tests were performed on new and saline rinsed dialyzers as well as those roused in patients several times. C-DAK 4000 (Cordis Dow) and CF IS-11 (Baxter Travenol) reused dialyzers obtained from the dialysis clinic were used in the present study. The new dialyzers exhibited a relatively flat APD, whereas saline rinsed and reused dialyzers showed considerable amount of decay. C-DAH dialyzers had a larger APD(11.70${\pm}$1.32mmHg/min)compared to CF dialyzers(4.32${\pm}$0.55mmHg/min)(p<0.05). However, there was no observable difference in the UFR between the two dialyzers. Neither APD nor UFR showed any significant increase with an increasing number of reuses for up to more than 20reuses. A substantial number of failures observed in APD(larger than 20mmHe/min)on the reused dialyzers(2 out of 40 CP and S out 26 C-DAK) were attributed to the Possible damage on the fibers. The CF 15-11 HFDs which failed APD test did not show changes in the UFR compared to normal dialyzers indicating that APD is a more sensitive test than UFR test to evaluate the integrity of the fibers. 30527 T00401030527 ^x For quantitative measurement of reflected light from a clinical diagnostic strip, a prototype old reflectance photometer was designed. The strip loader and cassette were made to obtain more accurate reflectance parameters. The strip was illuminated at 45˚c through optical fiber and the intensity of reflected light was determined at rectanguLat angle using a photodiode. The kubelka-munk coefficient and reflection optical density were determined ar four different wavelengths(500,550,570 and 610nm) for blood glucose strip. For higher concentration than 300mg/41 about glucose, a saturation state of abforbance was observed at 500,550 and 570nm. The correlation between glucose concentration and parameters was the best at 610nm. 30535 T00401030535 ^x Radiation-induced fibrosarcoma tumors were grown on the flanks of C3H mice. The mice were divided into two groups. One group was injected with Photofrin II, intravenously (2.5mg/kg body weight). The other group received no Photofrin II. Mice from both groups were irradialed for approximately 15 minutes at 100,300, or 500 mW/cm2 with the argon (488nm/514.5 nm), dye(628nm) and gold vapor (pulsed 628 nm) laser light. A photosensitizer behaved as an added absorber. Under our experimental conditions, the presence of Photolfrin II increased surface temperature by at least 40% and the temperature rise due to 300 mW/cm2 irradiation exceeded values for hyperthermia. Light and temperature distributions with depth were estimated by a computer model. The model demonstrated the influence of wavelength on the thermal process and proved to be a valuable tool to investigate internal temperature rise. 30536 T00401030536 ^x We investigated the structural geometry of thirty-eight Korean femurs. The purpose of this study is to identify major geometrical differences between Korean femurs 3nd others that we believe belong to Caucasians so that we would be able to get insights into the femoral component design that fits Asians including Koreans. We utilized computerized tomography (CT) images of femurs extracted from cadavers. The CT images were transformed into bitmap data by using a film scanner, and then analyzed by using a commercially available software called Image v.1.0 and a Macintosh IIci computer.The resulting data were compared with already published data. The major results show that the geometry of the Korean femurs is significantly different from that of Caucasians: (1) the anteversion angle and the canal flare index are greater by the amount of approximately 8˚ and 0.5, respectively, (2) the shape of the isthmus cross section is more round, and (3) the distance between the teaser trochanter and the proximal border of the isthmus is shelter by about 15 mm. The results suggested that the femoral component suitable for Asians should be different from the currently-used components designed and manufactured mostly by European or American companies. 30537 T00401030537 ^x It is well known that nonlinear propagation characteristics of the wave in the tissue may give very useful information for the medical diagnoisis. In this paper, a new method to detect nonlinear propagation characteristics of the internal vibration in the tissue for the low frequency mechanical vibration by using bispectral analysis is proposed. In the method, low frequency vibration of f0( = 100Hz) is applied on the surface of the object, and the waveform of the internal vibration x (t) is measured from Doppler frequency modulation of silmultaneously transmitted probing ultrasonic waves. Then, the bispectra of the signal x (t) at the frequencies (f0, f0) and (f0, 2f0) are calculated to estimate the nonlinear propagation characteristics as their magnitude ratio, w here since bispectrum is free from the gaussian additive noise we can get the value with high S/N. Basic experimental system is constructed by using 3.0 MHz probing ultrasonic waves and the several experiments are carried out for some phantoms. Results show the superiority of the proposed method to the conventional method using power spectrum and also its usefulness for the tissue characterization. 30541 T00401030541 ^x This paper describes the implementation of a computerized radial pulse diagnosis by aids of a clinical expert. On this base, we composed of the radial pulse diagnosis system in korean traditional medicine. The system composed of a radial pulse wave detection system and a radial pulse diagnosis system. With a detection system, we detected Inyoung and Cheongu radial pulse wave and processed it. Then, we have got the characteristic parameters of radial pulse wave and also quantified that according to the method of Inyoung-Cheongu Comparison Radial Pulse Diagnosis. We defined the jugement standard of radial pulse diagnosis system and then we confirmed the possibility for realization of automatic radial pulse diagnosis in korean traditional medicine. 30545 T00401030545 ^x Microspheres are expected to be applied to biomedical areas such as solid-phase immunoassays, drug delivery systems, immunomagnetic cell separation. To synthesize microspheres for biomedical application, "two stage shot growth method" was developed. The uniformity ratio of synthesized microspheres was always smaller than 1.05. And the surface charge density (or the number of ionizable functional groups) of the microspheres synthesized by "two stage shot growth method" was 6~13 times higher than that of the microspheres synthesized by conventional seeded batch copolymerization. As a previous step for biomedical application, adsorption experiments of bovine albumin on microspheres were carried out under various conditions. The maximum adsorbed amount was obtained in the neighborhood of pH 4.5. Isoelectric point of bovine albumin is pH 5.0, so experimental result shows that it shifted to acid area. The adsorption isotherm was obtained, the plateau region was always reached at 2.Og/L (bulk concentration of bovine albumin).The effect of the kind and the amount of surface functional group was also examined. 30575 T00401030575 ^x A medical image workstation was developed using multimedia technique. The system based on PC-486DX was designed to acquire medical images produced by medical imaging instruments and related audio information, that is, doctors' reporting results. Input information was processed and analyzed, then the results were presented in the form of graph and animation. All the informations of the system were hierarchically related with the image as the apex. Processing and analysis algorithms were implemented so that the diagnostic accuracy could be improved. The diagnosed information can be transferred for patient diagnosis through LAN(local area network). 30592 T00401030592 ^x In the conventional infrared imaging system, complex infrared lens systems are usually used for directing collimated narrow infrared beams into the high speed 2-dimensional optic scanner. In this paper, a simple reflective infrared optic system with a 2-dimensional optic scanner is proposed for the realization of medical infrared thermography system. It has been experimentally proven that the intfrared thermography system composed of the proposed optic system has the temperature resolution of 0.1˚c under the spatial resolution of lmrad, the image matrix size of 256 X 240, and tile imaging time of 4 seconds. 30593 T00401030593 ^x In this paper, MIIS (Medical Image Information System) has been designed and implemented using INGRES RDBMS, which is based on a client/server architecture. The implemented system allows users to register and retrieve patient information, medical images and diagnostic reports. It also provides the function to display these information on workstation windows simultaneously by using the designed menu-driven graphic user interface. The medical image compression/decompression techniques are implemented and integrated into the medical image database system for the efficient data storage and the fast access through the network. 30594 T00401030594 ^x In this paper, computerized BEAM was implemented for the space domain analysis of EEG. Trans-formation from temporal summation to two-dimensional mappings is formed by 4 nearest point inter-polaton method. Methods of representation of BEAM are two. One is dot density method which classify brain electrical potential 9 levels by dot density of gray levels and the other is colour method which classify brain electrical 12 levels by red-green colours. In this BEAM, instantaneous change and average energy distribution over any arbitrary time interval of brain electrical activity could be observed and analyzed easily. In the frequency domain, the distribution of energy spectrum of a special band can easily be distinguished normality and abnormality. 30608 T00401030608 ^x Laboratory information system (LIS) is a key tool to manage laboratory data in clinical pathology. Our department has developed an information system for routine hematology using down-sized computer system. We have used an IBM 486 compatible PC with 16MB main memory, 210 MB hard disk drive, 9 RS-232C port and 24 pin dot printer. The operating system and database management system were SCO UNIX and SCO foxbase, respectively. For program development, we used Xbase language provided by SCO foxbase. The C language was used for interface purpose. To make the system use friendly, pull-down menu was used. The system connected to our hospital information system via application program interface (API), so the information related to patient and request details is automatically transmitted to our computer. Our system interfaced with fwd complete blood count analyzers(Sysmex NE-8000 and Coulter STKS) for unidirectional data tansmission from analyzer to computer. The authors suggests that this system based on down-sized computer could provide a progressive approach to total LIS based on local area network, and the implemented system could serve as a model for other hospital's LIS for routine hematology. 30609 T00401030609 ^x To develop an artificial bone substitute that is gradually degraded and replaced by the regenerated natural bone, the authors designed a composite that is consisted of calcium phosphate and collagen. To use as the structural matrix of the composite, collagen was purified from human umbilical cord. The obtained collagen was treated by pepsin to remove telopeptides, and finally, the immune-free atelocollagen was produced: The cross linked atelocollagen was highly resistant to the collagenase induced collagenolysis. The cross linked collagen demonstrated an improved tensile strength. 30618 T00401030618 ^x This paper is a study on the design of adptive filter for QRS complex detection. We propose a simple adaptive algorithm to increase capability of noise cancelation in QRS complex detection with two stage adaptive filter. At the first stage, background noise is removed and at the next stage, only spectrum of QRS complex components is passed. Two adaptive filters can afford to keep track of the changes of both noise and QRS complex. Each adaptive filter consists of prediction error filter and FIR filter The impulse response of FIR filter uses coefficients of prediction error filter. The detection rates for 105 and 108 of MIT/BIH data base were 99.3% and 97.4% respectively. 30619 T00401030619 ^x To develop an artificial bone substitute that is gradually degraded and replaced by the regenerated natural bone, the authors designed and produced a composite that is consisted of calcium phosphate and collagen. Human umbilical cord origin pepsin treated type I atelocollagen was used as the structural matrix, by which sintered or non-sintered carbonate apatite was encapsulated to form an inorganic-organic composite. With cross linking atelocollagen by UV ray irradiation, the resistance to both compressive and tensile strength was increased. Collagen degradation by the collagenase induced collagenolysis was also decreased. 30620 T00401030620 ^x We have developed a monoleaflet polymer valve as an inexpensive and viable alternative, especially for short-term use in the ventricular assist device or total artificial heart. The frame and leaflet of the polymer valve were made from polyurethane, To evaluate the hemodynamic performance of the polymer valve a comparative study of flow dynamics past a polymer valve and a St. Jude Medical prosthetic valve under physiological pulsatile flow conditions in vitro was made. Comparisons between the valves were made on the transvalvular pressure drop, regurgitation volume and maximum valve opening area. The polymer valve showed smaller regurgitation volume and transvalvular pressure drop compared to the mechanical valve at higher heart rate. The results showed that the functional characteristics of the polymer valve compared favorably with those of the mechanical valve at higher heart rate. 30621 T00401030621 ^x Explosive evaporative removal process of biological tissue by absorption of a CW laser has been simulated by using gelatin and a multimode Nd:YAG laser. Because the point of maximun temperature of laser-irradiated gelatin exists below the surface due to surface cooling, evaporation at the boiling temperature is made explosively from below the surface. The important parameters of this process are the conduction loss to laser power absorption (defined as the conduction-to-laser power parameter, Nk), the convection heat transfer at the surface to conduction loss (defined as Bi), dimensionless extinction coefficient (defined as Br.), and dimensionless irradiation time (defined as Fo). Dependence of Fo on Nk and Bi has been observed by experiment, and the results have been compared with the numerical results obtained by solving a 2-dimensional conduction equation. Fo and explosion depth (from the surface to the point of maximun temperature) are increased when Nk and Bi are increased.To find out the minimum laser power for explosive evaporative removal process, steady state analysis has been also made. The limit of Nk to induce evaporative removal, which is proportional to the inverse of the laser power, has been obtained. 30622 T00401030622 ^x N1 and N2 gross neural action potentials were measured from the round window of the guinea pig cochlea at the onset of the acoustic stimuli. N1-N2 audiograms were made by means of regulating stimulant intensities in order to produce constant N1-N2 potentials as criteria for different input tone pip frequencies. The lowest threshold was measured with an input tone pip I5 dB SPL in intensity and 12 KHz in frequency when the animal was in normal physiological condition. The procedure of experimental measurements is explained in detail. This experimental approach is very useful for the investigation of the Cochlear function. Both noN1inear and active functions of the Cochlea can be monitored by N1-N2 audiograms. 30623 T00401030623 ^x In electrical impedance tomography(EIT), we use boundary current and voltage measurements toprovide the information about the cross-sectional distribution of electrical impedance or resistivity. One of the major problems in EIT has been the inaccessibility of internal voltage or current data in finding the internal impedance values. We propose a new image reconstruction method using internal current density data measured by NMR. We obtained a two-dimensional current density distribution within a phantom by processing the real and imaginary MR images from a 4.77 NMR machine. We implemented a resistivity mage reconstruction algorithm using the finite element method and sensitivity matrix. We presented computer simulation results of the mage reconstruction algorithm and furture direction of the research. 30624 T00401030624 ^x A new method of digital image analysis technique for discrimination of cancer cell was presented in this paper. The object image was the Thyroid eland cells image that was diagnosed as normal and abnormal (two types of abnormal: follicular neoplastic cell, and papillary neoplastic cell), respectively. By using the proposed region segmentation algorithm, the cells were segmented into nucleus. The 16 feature parameters were used to calculate the features of each nucleus. A9 a consequence of using dominant feature parameters method proposed in this paper, discrimination rate of 91.11% was obtained for Thyroid Gland cells. 30625 T00401030625 ^x An electrical stimulator was designed to induce locomotion for paraplegic patients caused by central nervous system injury. Optimal stimulus parameters, which can minimize muscle fatigue and can achieve effective muscle contraction were determined in slow and fast muscles in Sprague-Dawley rats. Stimulus patterns of our stimulator were designed to simulate electromyographic activity monitored during locomotion of normal subjects. Muscle types of the lower extremity were classified according to their mechanical property of contraction, which are slow muscle (msoleus m.) and fast muscle (medial gastrocneminus m., rectus femoris m., vastus lateralis m.). Optimal parameters of electrical stimulation for slow muscles were 20 Hz, 0.2 ms square pulse. For fast muscle, 40 Hz, 0.3 ms square pulse was optimal to produce repeated contraction. Higher stimulus intensity was required when synergistic muscles were stimulated simultaneously than when they were stimulated individually. Electrical stimulation for each muscle was designed to generate bipedal locomotion, so that individual muscles alternate contraction and relaxation to simulate stance and swing phases. Portable electrical stimulator with 16 channels built in microprocessor was constructed and applied to paraplegic patients due to lumbar cord injury. The electrical stimulator restored partially gait function in paraplegic patients. 30626 T00401030626 ^x Two-Dimensional modelling of the Cochlear biomechanics is presented in this paper. The Laplace partial differential equation which represents the fluid mechanics of the Cochlea has been transformed into two-dimensional electrical transmission line. The procedure of this transformation is explained in detail. The comparison between one and two dimensional models is also presented. This electrical modelling of the basilar membrane (BM) is clearly useful for the next approach to the further. Development of active elements which are essential in the producing of the sharp tuning of the BM. This paper shows that two-dimension model is qualitatively better than one-dimensional model both in amplitude and phase responses of the BM displacement. The present model is only for frequency response. However because the model is electrical, the two-dimensional transmission line model can be extended to time response without any difficult. 30627 T00401030627 ^x A method has been proposed for the fully automatic detection of left ventricular endocardial boundary in 2D short axis echocardiogram using geometric model. The procedure has the following three distinct stages. First, the initial center is estimated by the initial center estimation algorithm which is applied to decimated image. Second, the center estimation algorithm is applied to original image and then best-fit elliptic model estimation is processed. Third, best-fit boundary is detected by the cost function which is based on the best-fit elliptic model. The proposed method shows effective result without manual intervention by a human operator. 30628 T00401030628 ^x The intelligent trajectory control method that controls moving direction and average velocity for a prosthetic arm is proposed by pattern recognition and force estimations using EMG signals. Also, we propose the real time trajectory planning method which generates continuous accelleration paths using 3 stage linear filters to minimize the impact to human body induced by arm motions and to reduce the muscle fatigue. We use combination of MLP and fuzzy filter for pattern recognition to estimate the direction of a muscle and Hogan's method for the force estimation. EMG signals are acquired by using a amputation simulator and 2 dimensional joystick motion. The simulation results of proposed prosthetic arm control system using the EMf signals show that the arm is effectively followed the desired trajectory depended on estimated force and direction of muscle movements. 30638 T00401030638 ^x A new neural network architecture for the recognition of patterns from images is proposed, which is partially based on the results of physiological studies. The proposed network is composed of multi-layers and the nerve cells in each layer are connected by spatial filters which approximate receptive fields in optic nerve fields. In the proposed method, patterns recognition for complicated images is carried out using global features as well as local features such as lines and end-points. A new generating method of matched filers representing global features is proposed in this network. 30659 T00401030659 ^x An implementation scheme of the magnetic nerve stimulator using a switching mode power supply is proposed. By using a switching mode power supply rather than a conventional linear power supply for charging high voltage capacitors, the weight and size of the magnetic nerve stimulator can be considerably reduced. Maximum output voltage of the developed magnetic nerve stimulator using the switching mode power supply is 3,000 volts and switching time is about 100 msec. Experimental results or human nerve stimulations using the developed stimulator are presented. 30768 T00401030768 ^x In this paper, we describe the design methodology and specifications of the developed module-based bedside monitors for patient monitoring. The bedside monitor consists of a main unit and module cases with various parameter modules. The main unit includes a 12.1" TFT color LCD, a main CPU board, and peripherals such as a module controller, Ethernet LAN card, video card, rotate/push button controller, etc. The main unit can connect at maximum three module cases each of which can accommodate up to 7 parameter modules.

The wall shear stress in the vicinity of end-to end anastomoses under steady flow conditions was measured using a flush-mounted hot-film anemometer(FMHFA) probe. The experimental measurements were in good agreement with numerical results except in flow with low Reynolds numbers. The wall shear stress increased proximal to the anastomosis in flow from the Penrose tubing (simulating an artery) to the PTFE: graft. In flow from the PTFE graft to the Penrose tubing, low wall shear stress was observed distal to the anastomosis. Abnormal distributions of wall shear stress in the vicinity of the anastomosis, resulting from the compliance mismatch between the graft and the host artery, might be an important factor of ANFH formation and the graft failure. The present study suggests a correlation between regions of the low wall shear stress and the development of anastomotic neointimal fibrous hyperplasia(ANPH) in end-to-end anastomoses. 30523 T00401030523 ^x Air pressure decay(APD) rate and ultrafiltration rate(UFR) tests were performed on new and saline rinsed dialyzers as well as those roused in patients several times. C-DAK 4000 (Cordis Dow) and CF IS-11 (Baxter Travenol) reused dialyzers obtained from the dialysis clinic were used in the present study. The new dialyzers exhibited a relatively flat APD, whereas saline rinsed and reused dialyzers showed considerable amount of decay. C-DAH dialyzers had a larger APD(11.70$\pm$1.32mmHg/min)compared to CF dialyzers(4.32$\pm$0.55mmHg/min)(p<0.05). However, there was no observable difference in the UFR between the two dialyzers. Neither APD nor UFR showed any significant increase with an increasing number of reuses for up to more than 20reuses. A substantial number of failures observed in APD(larger than 20mmHe/min)on the reused dialyzers(2 out of 40 CP and S out 26 C-DAK) were attributed to the Possible damage on the fibers. The CF 15-11 HFDs which failed APD test did not show changes in the UFR compared to normal dialyzers indicating that APD is a more sensitive test than UFR test to evaluate the integrity of the fibers. 30527 T00401030527 ^x For quantitative measurement of reflected light from a clinical diagnostic strip, a prototype old reflectance photometer was designed. The strip loader and cassette were made to obtain more accurate reflectance parameters. The strip was illuminated at 45˚c through optical fiber and the intensity of reflected light was determined at rectanguLat angle using a photodiode. The kubelka-munk coefficient and reflection optical density were determined ar four different wavelengths(500, 550, 570 and 610nm) for blood glucose strip. For higher concentration than 300mg/41 about glucose, a saturation state of abforbance was observed at 500, 550 and 570nm. The correlation between glucose concentration and parameters was the best at 610nm. 30535 T00401030535 ^x Radiation-induced fibrosarcoma tumors were grown on the flanks of C3H mice. The mice were divided into two groups. One group was injected with Photofrin II, intravenously (2.5mg/kg body weight). The other group received no Photofrin II. Mice from both groups were irradialed for approximately 15 minutes at 100, 300, or 500 mW/cm2 with the argon (488nm/514.5 nm), dye(628nm) and gold vapor (pulsed 628 nm) laser light. A photosensitizer behaved as an added absorber. Under our experimental conditions, the presence of Photolfrin II increased surface temperature by at least 40% and the temperature rise due to 300 mW/cm2 irradiation exceeded values for hyperthermia. Light and temperature distributions with depth were estimated by a computer model. The model demonstrated the influence of wavelength on the thermal process and proved to be a valuable tool to investigate internal temperature rise. 30536 T00401030536 ^x We investigated the structural geometry of thirty-eight Korean femurs. The purpose of this study is to identify major geometrical differences between Korean femurs 3nd others that we believe belong to Caucasians so that we would be able to get insights into the femoral component design that fits Asians including Koreans. We utilized computerized tomography (CT) images of femurs extracted from cadavers. The CT images were transformed into bitmap data by using a film scanner, and then analyzed by using a commercially available software called Image v.1.0 and a Macintosh IIci computer.The resulting data were compared with already published data. The major results show that the geometry of the Korean femurs is significantly different from that of Caucasians: (1) the anteversion angle and the canal flare index are greater by the amount of approximately 8˚ and 0.5, respectively, (2) the shape of the isthmus cross section is more round, and (3) the distance between the teaser trochanter and the proximal border of the isthmus is shelter by about 15 mm. The results suggested that the femoral component suitable for Asians should be different from the currently-used components designed and manufactured mostly by European or American companies. 30537 T00401030537 ^x It is well known that nonlinear propagation characteristics of the wave in the tissue may give very useful information for the medical diagnoisis. In this paper, a new method to detect nonlinear propagation characteristics of the internal vibration in the tissue for the low frequency mechanical vibration by using bispectral analysis is proposed. In the method, low frequency vibration of f0( = 100Hz) is applied on the surface of the object, and the waveform of the internal vibration x (t) is measured from Doppler frequency modulation of silmultaneously transmitted probing ultrasonic waves. Then, the bispectra of the signal x (t) at the frequencies (f0, f0) and (f0, 2f0) are calculated to estimate the nonlinear propagation characteristics as their magnitude ratio, w here since bispectrum is free from the gaussian additive noise we can get the value with high S/N. Basic experimental system is constructed by using 3.0 MHz probing ultrasonic waves and the several experiments are carried out for some phantoms. Results show the superiority of the proposed method to the conventional method using power spectrum and also its usefulness for the tissue characterization. 30541 T00401030541 ^x This paper describes the implementation of a computerized radial pulse diagnosis by aids of a clinical expert. On this base, we composed of the radial pulse diagnosis system in korean traditional medicine. The system composed of a radial pulse wave detection system and a radial pulse diagnosis system. With a detection system, we detected Inyoung and Cheongu radial pulse wave and processed it. Then, we have got the characteristic parameters of radial pulse wave and also quantified that according to the method of Inyoung-Cheongu Comparison Radial Pulse Diagnosis. We defined the jugement standard of radial pulse diagnosis system and then we confirmed the possibility for realization of automatic radial pulse diagnosis in korean traditional medicine. 30545 T00401030545 ^x Microspheres are expected to be applied to biomedical areas such as solid-phase immunoassays, drug delivery systems, immunomagnetic cell separation. To synthesize microspheres for biomedical application, "two stage shot growth method" was developed. The uniformity ratio of synthesized microspheres was always smaller than 1.05. And the surface charge density (or the number of ionizable functional groups) of the microspheres synthesized by "two stage shot growth method" was 6~13 times higher than that of the microspheres synthesized by conventional seeded batch copolymerization. As a previous step for biomedical application, adsorption experiments of bovine albumin on microspheres were carried out under various conditions. The maximum adsorbed amount was obtained in the neighborhood of pH 4.5. Isoelectric point of bovine albumin is pH 5.0, so experimental result shows that it shifted to acid area. The adsorption isotherm was obtained, the plateau region was always reached at 2.Og/L (bulk concentration of bovine albumin).The effect of the kind and the amount of surface functional group was also examined. 30575 T00401030575 ^x A medical image workstation was developed using multimedia technique. The system based on PC-486DX was designed to acquire medical images produced by medical imaging instruments and related audio information, that is, doctors' reporting results. Input information was processed and analyzed, then the results were presented in the form of graph and animation. All the informations of the system were hierarchically related with the image as the apex. Processing and analysis algorithms were implemented so that the diagnostic accuracy could be improved. The diagnosed information can be transferred for patient diagnosis through LAN(local area network). 30592 T00401030592 ^x In the conventional infrared imaging system, complex infrared lens systems are usually used for directing collimated narrow infrared beams into the high speed 2-dimensional optic scanner. In this paper, a simple reflective infrared optic system with a 2-dimensional optic scanner is proposed for the realization of medical infrared thermography system. It has been experimentally proven that the intfrared thermography system composed of the proposed optic system has the temperature resolution of 0.1˚c under the spatial resolution of lmrad, the image matrix size of 256 X 240, and tile imaging time of 4 seconds. 30593 T00401030593 ^x In this paper, MIIS (Medical Image Information System) has been designed and implemented using INGRES RDBMS, which is based on a client/server architecture. The implemented system allows users to register and retrieve patient information, medical images and diagnostic reports. It also provides the function to display these information on workstation windows simultaneously by using the designed menu-driven graphic user interface. The medical image compression/decompression techniques are implemented and integrated into the medical image database system for the efficient data storage and the fast access through the network. 30594 T00401030594 ^x In this paper, computerized BEAM was implemented for the space domain analysis of EEG. Trans-formation from temporal summation to two-dimensional mappings is formed by 4 nearest point inter-polaton method. Methods of representation of BEAM are two. One is dot density method which classify brain electrical potential 9 levels by dot density of gray levels and the other is colour method which classify brain electrical 12 levels by red-green colours. In this BEAM, instantaneous change and average energy distribution over any arbitrary time interval of brain electrical activity could be observed and analyzed easily. In the frequency domain, the distribution of energy spectrum of a special band can easily be distinguished normality and abnormality. 30608 T00401030608 ^x Laboratory information system (LIS) is a key tool to manage laboratory data in clinical pathology. Our department has developed an information system for routine hematology using down-sized computer system. We have used an IBM 486 compatible PC with 16MB main memory, 210 MB hard disk drive, 9 RS-232C port and 24 pin dot printer. The operating system and database management system were SCO UNIX and SCO foxbase, respectively. For program development, we used Xbase language provided by SCO foxbase. The C language was used for interface purpose. To make the system use friendly, pull-down menu was used. The system connected to our hospital information system via application program interface (API), so the information related to patient and request details is automatically transmitted to our computer. Our system interfaced with fwd complete blood count analyzers(Sysmex NE-8000 and Coulter STKS) for unidirectional data tansmission from analyzer to computer. The authors suggests that this system based on down-sized computer could provide a progressive approach to total LIS based on local area network, and the implemented system could serve as a model for other hospital's LIS for routine hematology. 30609 T00401030609 ^x To develop an artificial bone substitute that is gradually degraded and replaced by the regenerated natural bone, the authors designed a composite that is consisted of calcium phosphate and collagen. To use as the structural matrix of the composite, collagen was purified from human umbilical cord. The obtained collagen was treated by pepsin to remove telopeptides, and finally, the immune-free atelocollagen was produced: The cross linked atelocollagen was highly resistant to the collagenase induced collagenolysis. The cross linked collagen demonstrated an improved tensile strength. 30618 T00401030618 ^x This paper is a study on the design of adptive filter for QRS complex detection. We propose a simple adaptive algorithm to increase capability of noise cancelation in QRS complex detection with two stage adaptive filter. At the first stage, background noise is removed and at the next stage, only spectrum of QRS complex components is passed. Two adaptive filters can afford to keep track of the changes of both noise and QRS complex. Each adaptive filter consists of prediction error filter and FIR filter The impulse response of FIR filter uses coefficients of prediction error filter. The detection rates for 105 and 108 of MIT/BIH data base were 99.3% and 97.4% respectively. 30619 T00401030619 ^x To develop an artificial bone substitute that is gradually degraded and replaced by the regenerated natural bone, the authors designed and produced a composite that is consisted of calcium phosphate and collagen. Human umbilical cord origin pepsin treated type I atelocollagen was used as the structural matrix, by which sintered or non-sintered carbonate apatite was encapsulated to form an inorganic-organic composite. With cross linking atelocollagen by UV ray irradiation, the resistance to both compressive and tensile strength was increased. Collagen degradation by the collagenase induced collagenolysis was also decreased. 30620 T00401030620 ^x We have developed a monoleaflet polymer valve as an inexpensive and viable alternative, especially for short-term use in the ventricular assist device or total artificial heart. The frame and leaflet of the polymer valve were made from polyurethane, To evaluate the hemodynamic performance of the polymer valve a comparative study of flow dynamics past a polymer valve and a St. Jude Medical prosthetic valve under physiological pulsatile flow conditions in vitro was made. Comparisons between the valves were made on the transvalvular pressure drop, regurgitation volume and maximum valve opening area. The polymer valve showed smaller regurgitation volume and transvalvular pressure drop compared to the mechanical valve at higher heart rate. The results showed that the functional characteristics of the polymer valve compared favorably with those of the mechanical valve at higher heart rate. 30621 T00401030621 ^x Explosive evaporative removal process of biological tissue by absorption of a CW laser has been simulated by using gelatin and a multimode Nd:YAG laser. Because the point of maximun temperature of laser-irradiated gelatin exists below the surface due to surface cooling, evaporation at the boiling temperature is made explosively from below the surface. The important parameters of this process are the conduction loss to laser power absorption (defined as the conduction-to-laser power parameter, Nk), the convection heat transfer at the surface to conduction loss (defined as Bi), dimensionless extinction coefficient (defined as Br.), and dimensionless irradiation time (defined as Fo). Dependence of Fo on Nk and Bi has been observed by experiment, and the results have been compared with the numerical results obtained by solving a 2-dimensional conduction equation. Fo and explosion depth (from the surface to the point of maximun temperature) are increased when Nk and Bi are increased.To find out the minimum laser power for explosive evaporative removal process, steady state analysis has been also made. The limit of Nk to induce evaporative removal, which is proportional to the inverse of the laser power, has been obtained. 30622 T00401030622 ^x N1 and N2 gross neural action potentials were measured from the round window of the guinea pig cochlea at the onset of the acoustic stimuli. N1-N2 audiograms were made by means of regulating stimulant intensities in order to produce constant N1-N2 potentials as criteria for different input tone pip frequencies. The lowest threshold was measured with an input tone pip I5 dB SPL in intensity and 12 KHz in frequency when the animal was in normal physiological condition. The procedure of experimental measurements is explained in detail. This experimental approach is very useful for the investigation of the Cochlear function. Both noN1inear and active functions of the Cochlea can be monitored by N1-N2 audiograms. 30623 T00401030623 ^x In electrical impedance tomography(EIT), we use boundary current and voltage measurements toprovide the information about the cross-sectional distribution of electrical impedance or resistivity. One of the major problems in EIT has been the inaccessibility of internal voltage or current data in finding the internal impedance values. We propose a new image reconstruction method using internal current density data measured by NMR. We obtained a two-dimensional current density distribution within a phantom by processing the real and imaginary MR images from a 4.77 NMR machine. We implemented a resistivity mage reconstruction algorithm using the finite element method and sensitivity matrix.

Parasuraman이 TRI를 개발한 이후 SST와 TRI를 접목한 연구가 이루어져 왔지만 여전히 부족한 실정이다. 소비자 준비도 역시 SST사용에 대한 소비자의 동기와 태도 및 의도와 직접적인 영향을 미칠 수 있지만 이에 대한 연구는 이루어지지 않았다. 이에 본 연구에서는 패스트푸드 레스토랑에서 터치스크린 SST를 도입함에 있어 소비자의 기술준비도와 소비자 준비도가 Dabholkar & Bagozzi(1994)가 제안한 SST 핵심태도모델에 미치는 영향을 고찰하였다. 이때 모든 소비자와 상황적 요인에 따른 차이를 파악하고자 자아의식, 상호작용욕구, 기술에 대한 두려움 등의 소비자특성과 지각된 대기시간, 지각된 과밀 등의 상황적 요인에 따른 조절 효과를 검증하였다. AMOS 18.0프로그램을 사용하여 구조방정식 모델로 분석하였고 연구 결과 기술준비도 중 낙관성은 사용용이성과 재미 동기에 유의한 영향을 미치는 것으로 나타났다. 혁신성은 사용용이성과 성과에 유의한 영향을 미치는 것으로 나타났다. 역할의 명확성, 능력 및 자아 효능감으로 구성된 소비자준비도는 사용용이성, 성과와 재미 등 모든 SST사용동기 요소에 기술준비도보다 강하고 유의한 영향을 미치는 것으로 나타났다. 마지막으로 SST 핵심태도모델 내의 SST 사용 동기, 사용 태도 및 사용의도 간의 관계에서 소비자 특성과 상황적 요인의 조절효과를 검증한 결과 지각된 과밀을 제외한 모든 변수들이 조절효과를 지니는 것으로 나타났다. 이러한 연구 결과를 바탕으로 터치스크린 SST를 도입하려는 기업에 실무적 제언을 하였다.

[안부인사(安否人事)]의 형식적(形式的) 유형(類型)는 정치여부(定置與否), 생략여부(省略與否), 기상여부(寄狀與否), 존비여부(尊卑與否)를 기준으로 나눌 수 있다. 정치여부(定置與否)를 제1기준으로, 생략여부(省略與否)를 제2기준으로 삼아 다섯 가지로 유형화하였다. [안부인사(安否人事)]의 전형성(典型性)이 가장 잘 드러난 정치형(定置型)이면서 완성형(完成型)을 제(第)1유형(類型)로 삼았다. 정치형(定置型)이면서 자기안부생략형(自己安否省略型)을 제(第)2유형(類型)으로, 정치형(定置型)이면서 상대안부생략형(相對安否省略型)을 제(第)3유형(類型)으로, 정치형(定置型)이면서 안부인사생략형(安否人事省略型)을 제(第)4유형(類型)로 삼았다. [안부인사(安否人事)]에서 破格이 가장 심한 도치형(倒置型)을 제(第)5유형(類型)로 삼았다. 第1유형(類型)은 [상대안부(相對安否)]가 [자기안부(自己安否)]에 선행(先行)하는 정치형(定置型)이면서 의미요소(意味要素)가 온전한 완성형(完成型)을 가리킨다. 이 유형은 [안부인사(安否人事)]의 모든 구성요소(構成要素)를 갖췄다는 점에서 가장 전형적(典型的)이며 규범적(規範的)이라 할 수 있다. 제(第)2유형(類型)은 [안부인사(安否人事)]가 [상대안부(相對安否)]로만 이루어진 것이다. 정형성(定型性)에서는 제(第)1유형(類型)보다 덜하지만 출현빈도(出現頻度)에서는 큰 차이가 없는 유형이다. [상대안부(相對安否)]를 충실히 묻되, [자기안부(自己安否)]는 생략하는 것이 예의에 크게 어긋나지 않으면서 간찰을 쉽게 쓸 수 있기 때문에 활용된다. 제(第)3유형(類型)은 [상대안부(相對安否)+자기안부(自己安否)]의 구성을 보이는 정치형(定置型)이지만 [상대안부(相對安否)]가 생략된 유형을 가리킨다. 제(第)4유형(類型)은 [상대안부(相對安否)+자기안부(自己安否)]의 구성을 보이는 정치형(定置型)이지만 [안부인사(安否人事)] 전체가 생략된 유형이다. 이 유형은 [안부인사(安否人事)]자체를 완전히 생략한 경우와 '제번(除煩)'과 같은 상투적인 표현이 [안부인사(安否人事)]를 대신하는 경우로 나뉜다. 제(第)5유형(類型)은 정치형(定置型)과 달리 [자기안부(自己安否)+상대안부(相對安否)]의 구성을 보이는 도치형(倒置型)이다. 이 유형은 정형성(定型性)에서 파격(破格)이 가장 심한 유형으로 실예(實例)도 아주 드물다. [자기안부(自己安否)]를 앞세우고 나중에 체면치레로 [상대안부(相對安否)]를 묻는 것은 예의에 어긋나기 때문이다. 이 외에 [안부인사(安否人事)] 유형을 [상대안부(相對安否)]와 [자기안부(自己安否)]가 직접 연결된 직접형(直接型)과 [事緣]으로 분리된 간접형(間接型)으로 대별(大別)하여 세분할 수도 있다. [안부인사(安否人事)]의 의미적(意味的) 유형(類型)은 기상여부(寄狀與否), 완급여부(緩急與否), 친밀여부(親密與否), 격조여부(隔阻與否)를 기준으로 나눌 수 있다. 기상(寄狀)의 경우 [안부인사(安否人事)]는 [상대안부(相對安否)(시후(時候)+문안(問安)+심경(心境))+자기안부(自己安否)(상황(狀況)+안부(安否)+심경(心境))]의 구성을 보인다. [상대안부(相對安否)]에서 [시후(時候)]는 [계절(季節)] 정보와 [기상(氣象)(날씨)] 정보로 세분(細分)할 수 있고, [심경(心境)] 또한 수신자(受信者)의 [가족안부([家族安否) 심경(心境)]과 [개인안부(個人安否) 심경(心境)]으로 나뉜다. [자기안부(自己安否)]에서 [상황(狀況)]은 수신자(受信者)의 종래 상황인 [근황(近況)]과 수신자(受信者)의 현재 상황인 [현황(現況)]으로 나뉘며 [문안(問安)] 또한 수신자(受信者)의 [가족문안(家族問安)]와 [개인문안(個人問安)]으로, [안부(安否)]는 [가족안부(家族安否)]와 [개인안부(個人安否)]로 세분(細分)할 수 있다. 이처럼 [문안(問安)]이나 [안부(安否)]가 [가족(家族)]과 [개인(個人)] 차원에서 짝을 이루어 쓰일때가 많은데 부모(父母)나 조부모(祖父母)를 모시고 사는 층층시하(層層侍下)의 대가족제도(大家族制度)에서 비롯한 현상이라 할 수 있다. 답상(答狀)의 경우 [안부인사(安否人事)]는 [상대안부(相對安否)(수신(受信)+안부(安否)+심경(心境))+자기안부(自己安否)(상황(狀況)+안부(安否)+심경(心境))]의 구성을 보며 [상대안부(相對安否)]에서만 의미구성이 기상(寄狀)과 차이가 있다. [상대안부(相對安否)]에서 [수신(受信)]은 직접 간찰을 받는 [서신(書信)]과 사람들 통해 소식을 전해 듣는 [전언(傳言)]으로 나뉘며 [안부(安否)]는 [가족안부(家族安否)]와 [개인안부(個人安否)]로, [심경(心境)] 역시 [가족안부(家族安否) 심경(心境)]과 [개인안부(個人安否) 심경(心境)]으로 나뉜다.

충남(忠南) 전북지방(全北地方) 적송림(赤松林)의 천이과정(遷移過程)을 연구(研究)하기 위하여 솔잎혹파리의 피해지속기간(被害持續期間)에 따라 피해극기지(被害極基地) (5년전(年前)에 피해발생(被害発生))인 공주(公州)(A), 피해지속지(被害持續地)(10년전(年前)에 피해발생(被害発生))인 부여(扶餘)(B), 피해회복지(被害回復地)(20년전(年前)에 피해발생(被害発生))로서 고창지역(高敞地域)(C)을 조사지역(調査地域)으로 설정(設定)하고, 각(各) 조사지역별(調査地域別)로 환경요인(環境要因)과 식생상태(植生狀態)를 調査하여, 환경요인(環境要因)과 식생상태(植生狀態), 삼림군집(森林群集)의 비교(比較), 식물상(植物相)의 변화(変化) 등(等)을 분석(分析)한 결과(結果)를 요약(要約)하면 다음과 같다 1. 임분(林分)이 솔잎혹파리피해(被害)로 부터 회복(回復)되어 감에 따라 식생구성(植生構成)에 변화(変化)가 오고 대상수종(代償樹種)으로 발달(発達)된 참나무류(類)의 상대우점치(相対優点値)가 감소(減小)되었다. 그러나 본(本) 조사지역내(調査地域內)에서는 상수리나무의 상대우점치(相対優点値)가 다른 참나무류(類) 보다 높았다. 2. 솔잎혹파리피해(被害)가 지속(持續)됨에 따라 삼림군집(森林群集)의 종구성상태(種構成狀態)가 점차 다양(多樣)하여진다. 그후 피해(被害)가 회복(回復)됨에 따라 임분(林分)의 종구성상태(種構成狀態)는 단순화(单純化)되는 것으로 나타났다. 3. 상대밀도(相対密度) 및 상대우점치(相対優点値)의 상대치(相対値)에 의(依)한 식생천이(植生遷移)를 종합분석(綜合分析)한 결과(結果) 솔잎혹파리피해(被害)의 극심(極甚)에서 우점종(優点種)을 이루던 참나무류(類)가 피해(被害)로부터 회복(回復)되어감에 따라 그 값이 감소(減少)되고, 싸리류(類), 진달래류(類) 등(等)이 하층식생(下層植生)을 형성(形成)하는 삼림군집(森林群集)으로 변화(変化)하여 갔다. 4. 식생(植生)에 미친 토심(土深), 토양함수량(土壤含水量), 유기물함량(有機物含量), 그리고 유기물층(有機物層)의 두께는 본(本) 조사대상지(調査対象地)의 범위내에 있어서는 거의 같은 것으로 사료(思料)되었고 연평균강수량(年平均降水量)과 온도(温度)도 유사(類似)하였다고 본다.
