흉부대동맥류는 좌측 쇄골하동맥에 가까이 위치해 있어서 흉부대동맥내치료를 시행할 때 좌측 쇄골하동맥의 폐색이 불가피한 경우가 많다. 좌측 쇄골하동맥 폐색의 안전성과 좌측 쇄골하동맥 재생술의 필요성에 대해 논란이 계속되고 있음에도 불구하고, 좌측 쇄골하동맥의 폐색후 뇌혈류역학적인 변화에 대한 기존의 체계적인 연구는 없었다. 저자들은 좌측 쇄골하동맥폐색을 동반한 흉부대동맥내치료의 대상이 되는 2명의 환자에서 치료 전후의 2차원 위상차 대조 자기공명영상을 시행하였다. 좌측 쇄골하동맥의 폐색 후 좌측 쇄골하도주가 발생하였으며, 이로 인한 뇌혈류의 소실을 양측 경동맥과 주된 부행혈류인 오른쪽 추골동맥이 적절하게 보상하였다. 전체 뇌혈류는 감소하지 않았으며 이는 임상적으로 뇌졸증이나 척수마비의 증상이 나타나지 않은 것과 잘 일치하였다. 2차원 위상차 대조 자기공명영상은 좌측 쇄골하동맥 폐색을 동반한 흉부대동맥내치료의 뇌혈류역학적인 평가와 좌측 쇄골하동맥 재생술이 필요한 환자의 선별에 유용할 것으로 사료된다.

The two-fluid equations are widely used to simulate two-phase flows in a nuclear reactor. For the two-fluid momentum equation, the wall and interfacial drag terms play an important role in predicting a two-phase flow behavior. Since the bubble density is much smaller than the water density, the bubble accelerates faster than the liquid in a nozzle. As a result, the bubble phase becomes faster than the liquid phase in the nozzle. In contrast, the opposite phenomena occur in the diffuser. The purpose of our study is to experimentally show these behaviors in an area-varying channel such as nozzle and diffuser. Experiments were made of turbulent bubbly flows in an area-varying horizontal channel. The velocities of the bubble and liquid phases were measured by the PIV technique. It was shown that the two-phase velocities were no longer close to each other in the area-varying regions. The bubble was faster than the liquid in the nozzle; in contrast, the bubble was slower than the liquid in the diffuser. Code simulations were also performed using the MARS code. By replacing the original wall drag model in the MARS code with Kim (1)'s wall drag partition model, we obtained the simulation results being consistent with experimental observations.

Focused Ion Beam (FIB) has been used for site-specific TEM sample preparation and small scale fabrication. Moreover, analysis on the surface microstructure and phase distribution is possible by ion channeling contrast of FIB with high resolution. This paper describes FIB applications and deformed surface structure induced by sliding. The effect of FIB process on the surface damage was explored as well. The sliding experiments were conducted using high purity aluminum and OFHC(Oxygen-Free High Conductivity) copper. The counterpart material was steel. Pin-on-disk, Rotational Barrel Gas Gun and Explosively Driven Friction Tester were used for the sliding experiments in order to investigate the velocity effect on the microstructural change. From the FIB analysis, it is revealed that ion channeling contrast of FIB has better resolution than SEM and the tribolayer is composed of nanocrystalline structures. And the thickness of tribolayer was constant regardless of sliding velocities.

Supradiaphragmatic liver is a rare condition. Establishing an accurate preoperative diagnosis is difficult. Operative exploration is necessary to differentiate this lesion from intrathoracic masses, such as a pleural based tumor, diaphragmatic tumor and peripheral lung tumor. However, with the aid of the hepatocyte-specific magnetic resonance imaging contrast agent, gadoxetic acid (Gd-EOB-DTPA), functional hepatocytes in the lesion can be identified in the hepatobiliary phase, potentially allowing an accurate and non-invasive diagnosis. We report a case of supradiaphragmatic liver diagnosed by Gd-EOB-DTPA-enhanced magnetic resonance imaging.

위상 부호 다중화 시스템에서 cross talk 잡음은 기준빔 성분들간의 180$^{\circ}$와 다른 위상 천이 오차, 기준빔 성분들의 Bragg 격자로부터 불균일한 회절 세기들, 혹은 non-Bragg-matched 격자로부터 회절 때문에 발생하는 것으로 알려져 있다. 본 논문에서는 cross talk의 다른 원인들이 최소화된 시스템에서 위상 천이 오차만이 존재할 때 이전 연구들과 달리 유한한 contrast ratio를 갖는 이진 랜덤 이차원 이미지들을 광굴절 결정체에 위상 부호 다중화하고 복원할 때 얻어지는 신호대 잡음비(SNR)을 계산하고 이를 실험 측정 결과와 비교한다.

본 논문에서는 광전자 밴드갭의 공진 특성을 이용하여 마이크로웨이브 발진기에서 위상잡음을 줄이기 위한 새로운 구조를 제시하였다. 낮은 Q값을 가지고 있는 마이크로스트립 라인 공진기의 접지 면에 PBG 구조를 적용하였다. 그래서 2.4 GHz 대역의 100 KHz offset에서 기존의 마이크로스트립 라인 발진기의 위상잡음 특성에 비해 약 10 dBc 개선시킨 결과를 얻었다. 출력전력은 7.09 dBm을 획득하였다.

Image findings of hepatic lymphoma have been reported as variable, ranging from single or multiple small nodules to diffuse infiltrative patterns. On MRI, most hepatic lymphomas show T1 low signal intensity, T2 high signal intensity. Dynamic imaging reveals a hypointense appearance in the arterial phase, followed by delayed enhancement in the portal venous and transitional phase. In the hepatobiliary phase using a hepatocyte-specific contrast agent (which have recently aided in increasing the access to the focal liver lesions), hepatic lymphoma is known to exhibit low signal intensity. We report a case of hepatic lymphoma, which shows iso-signal intensity on hepatobiliary phase, using gadoxetic acid (Gd-EOB-DTPA).

We conducted simultaneous, small-angle, X-ray scattering/differential scanning calorimetry (SAXS/DSC) and simultaneous, wide-angle, X-ray scattering (WAXS)/DSC measurements for a polymer blend of poly($\varepsilon$-caprolactone)/poly(ethylene glycol)(PCL/PEG). The time-dependent SAXS/DSC and WAXS/DSC results, measured while the system was quenched below the melting temperature of PCL from a melting state, revealed the competitive behavior between liquid-liquid phase separation and crystallization in the polymer blend. The time-dependent structural evolution extracted from the SAXS/WAXS/DSC results can be characterized by the following four stages in the PCL crystallization process: the induction (I), nucleation (II), growth (III), and late (IV) stages. The influence of the liquid-liquid phase separation on the crystallization of PCL was also observed by phase-contrast microscope and polarized microscope with 1/4$\lambda$ compensator.

The characteristics of harmonic phase angles and phase angle differences contained in earthquake ground motions such as El Centre 1940 NS, Taft1 1952 NS, Hachinohe 1968 NS and Mexico 1985 are figured, which have been mostly overlooked in contrast with the importance placed on harmonic amplitudes. Recently, performance based design method is used for seismic design and seismic retrofitting, which needs nonlinear response analysis, there must be earthquake ground accelerations which contain the phase angle, the phase angle difference and energy input spectrum characteristics of the zone considered to be constructed building structures. To make clear the importance of phase angle differences, responses of 4 recorded earthquake ground motions, 4-earthquake ground motions normalized by 110 gal and 4 artificial earthquake motions compatible to the seismic building code of Korea are compared.

We demonstrate binary spectral phase coded waveform discrimination at 10 GHz for narrow band optical code-division multiple-access (NB-OCDMA) via direct electrical detection without using any optical hard-limiter. Only 9 phase-locked, 10 GHz spaced, spectral lines within a 100 GHz spectral window are used for the phase coding. Considerably high contrast ratio of 5 between signal and multiuser access interference noise can be achieved for $4{\times}10\;G\;pulse/sec$ timing coordinated OCDMA at a simple electrical receiver with 50 GHz bandwidth.
