  • Objectives: This study was aimed to investigate the methods to reduce operator's radiation dose when taking intraoral radiographs with portable dental X-ray machines. Materials and Methods: Two kinds of portable dental X-ray machines (DX3000, Dexcowin and Rextar, Posdion) were used. Operator's radiation dose was measured with an 1,800 cc ionization chamber (RadCal Corp.) at the hand level of X-ray tubehead and at the operator's chest and waist levels with and without the backscatter shield. The operator's radiation dose at the hand level was measured with and without lead gloves and with long and short cones. Results: The backscatter shield reduced operator's radiation dose at the hand level of X-ray tubehead to 23 - 32%, the lead gloves to 26 - 31%, and long cone to 48 - 52%. And the backscatter shield reduced operator's radiation dose at the operator's chest and waist levels to 0.1 - 37%. Conclusions: When portable dental X-ray systems are used, it is recommended to select X-ray machine attached with a backscatter shield and a long cone and to wear the lead gloves.

  • This paper proposes a common platform for an internet-based mobile robot and its operator terminal. The common platform can reduce the cost and time to develop an internet-based robot and its operator terminal. The robot performs the role of a server and its terminal a client. One operator can use this terminal to make a command and this command can be sent to the robot through a wireless network. According to given commands, the robot moves a point and sends an image by using a camera or desired information by using other sensors. The information sent from the robot can help an operator to control the robot. The mobile robot consists of two modules, main module and motion module. Main module can exchange information with the operator terminal, process information, and send a command to motion module. Each application program for one internet-based mobile robot and its operator terminal will be developed to show that the same platform can be used for them. Also, it will be shown that the robot can be controlled easily by using its operator terminal.

  • The existence of an operator-valued function space integral as an operator on $L_p(R) (1 \leq p \leq 2)$ was established for certain functionals which involved the Labesgue measure [1,2,6,7]. Johnson and Lapidus showed the existence of the integral as an operator on $L_2(R)$ for certain functionals which involved any Borel measures [5]. J. S. Chang and Johnson proved the existence of the integral as an operator from L_1(R)$ to $C_0(R)$ for certain functionals involving some Borel measures [3]. K. S. Chang and K. S. Ryu showed the existence of the integral as an operator from $L_p(R) to L_p'(R)$ for certain functionals involving some Borel measures [4].

  • This study was performed in order to assess the risk of pesticide operator in korean rice paddy. The amount of exposure was calculated based on the informations of 48 kind of items that are used the form of a spraying in korean rice paddy. The risks of these pesticides were assessed to compare the exposure dosage with AOEL (acceptable operator exposure level) which was released form developed countries. When the operator spraying pesticides using motor sprayer, 17 items showed the risk for operator if the operator have not worn the personal protective equipment (PPE), and 6 items showed the risk for operator if the operator have worn the PPE. These result were indicated that the risk of pesticide operator was very high in korean rice paddy.

  • Unlike the conventional reverse time migration method which is implemented by simply extrapolating wavefield in reverse time, this paper presents a derivation of another reverse time migration operator as the exact adjoint of the presumed forward wavefield extrapolation operator. The adjoint operator is obtained by formulating the forward time extrapolation operator in an explicit matrix equation form and then taking the adjoint to this matrix equation followed by determining the corresponding operator. The reverse time migration operator as the exact adjoint to the implied forward operator can be used not only as a migration algorithm but also as an adjoint operator which is required in the imaging through an inversion such as least-squares migration.

  • For any nonzero elements x, y in a normed space X, the angular and skew-angular distance is respectively defined by ${\alpha}[x,y]={\parallel}{\frac{x}{{\parallel}x{\parallel}}}-{\frac{y}{{\parallel}y{\parallel}}}{\parallel}$ and ${\beta}[x,y]={\parallel}{\frac{x}{{\parallel}y{\parallel}}}-{\frac{y}{{\parallel}x{\parallel}}}{\parallel}$. Also inequality ${\alpha}{\leq}{\beta}$ characterizes inner product spaces. Operator version of ${\alpha}$ has been studied by $ Pe{\check{c}}ari{\acute{c}}$, $ Raji{\acute{c}}$, and Saito, Tominaga, and Zou et al. In this paper, we study the operator version of ${\beta}$ by using Douglas' lemma. We also prove that the operator version of inequality ${\alpha}{\leq}{\beta}$ holds for commutating normal operators. Some examples are presented to show essentiality of these conditions.

  • In this paper, we show that $\Vert \xi \Vert_r = \Vert \sum_{i \in I}x_i x^*_i \Vert^{\frac{1}{2}}, \Vert \xi \Vert_c = \Vert \sum_{i \in I}x^*_ix_i \Vert^{\frac{1}{2}}$ for $\xi = \sum_{i \in I}x_i e_i$ in $M_n(H)$, that subspaces as Hilbert spaces are subspaces as column and row Hilbert spaces, and that the standard dual of column (resp., row) Hilbert spaces is the row (resp., column) Hilbert spaces differently from [1,6]. We define operator Hilbert spaces differently from [10], show that our definition of operator Hilbert spaces is the same as that in [10], show that subspaces as Hilbert spaces are subspaces as operator Hilbert spaces, and for a Hilbert space H we give a matrix norm which is not an operator space norm on H.

  • This paper is a study about the relationships among topologies and intuitionistic fuzzy topology induced, respectively, by approximation operators and an intuitionistic fuzzy approximation operator associated with an approximation space (X, R), when the relation R on X is precisely reflexive and transitive. In particular, we consider an intuitionistic fuzzy approximation operator on an approximation space X (i.e., a set X with a reflexive and transitive relation on it), which turns out to be an intuitionistic fuzzy closure operator. This intuitionistic fuzzy closure operator gives rise to two saturated fuzzy topologies on X and it turns out that all the level topologies of one of the fuzzy topology coincide and equal to the topology analogously induced on X by a crisp approximation operator. These observations are then applied to intuitionistic fuzzy automata.

  • Operator's action time is evaluated from MAAP4 analysis used in conventional probabilistic safety assessment(PSA) of a nuclear power plant. MAAP4 code which was developed for severe accident analysis is too conservative to perform a realistic PSA. A best-estimate code such as RELAP5/MOD3, MARS has been used to reduce the conservatism of thermal hydraulic analysis. In this study, operator's action time of core cooling recovery operation is evaluated by using the MARS code, which its Fussell-Vessely(F-V) value was evaluated as highly important in a small break loss of coolant(SBLOCA) event and loss of component cooling water(LOCCW) event in previous PSA. The main conclusions were elicited : (1) MARS analysis provides larger time window for operator's action time than MAAP4 analysis and gives the more realistic time window in PSA (2) Sufficient operator's action time can reduce human error probability and core damage frequency in PSA.
