Differential pressure devices such as an orifice and Venturi are widely used in the measurement of flow rate of fluid mainly due to cost effectiveness and easy installation. In the current study, the viscoelastic effect on discharge and loss coefficients of those flow meters were investigated experimentally. Aqueous solutions of Polyacrylamide (200, 500, and 800 ppm) as viscoelastic fluids were used. Discharge coefficient of an orifice for viscoelastic fluids increased significantly up to approximately 15-20% when compared with that for water, while loss coefficient decreased up to 10-25% depending on the diameter ratio, .betha.. Also, pressure recovery for viscoelastic fluids was extended much longer than that for water. On the other hand, discharge and loss coefficients of Venturi for viscoelastic fluids were found to be strongly dependent on the Reynolds number. In both flow meters, the concentration effect for discharge and loss coefficients was not observed at more over than 200 ppm of aqueous solution. Conclusively, orifice and Venturi flow meters should be calibrated very carefully in the flow rate measurement for viscoelastic fluids.

단일 서스테인 구동회로서 패널을 수평으로 이등 분할하고 직렬 연결하여 구동회로의 전류 스트레스를 저감하는 새로운 단일 에너지 회수 서스테인 구동회로를 제안한다. 기존의 단일 서스테인 구동회로는 +Vs 및 -Vs의 양극성 전원을 사용함에 따라 기존 구동회로에 비해 전류 스트레스는 그대로이면서 스위치 전압 스트레스가 두 배가 되어 회로 손실 및 발열이 높은 단점을 가지고 있다. 이를 개선하기 위해 제안하는 패널 분할 직렬 연결 단일 에너지 회수 서스테인 구동회로는 패널을 수평으로 이등 분할하고 하프 브리지 인버터를 각각 연결하여 구동 회로의 가스 방전 전류 및 패널 캐패시터의 변위 전류를 기존의 절반으로 줄여 스위치들의 전류 스트레스를 저감하게 된다. 또한 에너지 회수 회로는 능동소자로서 단 하나의 스위치와 단하나의 다이오드만을 사용하므로 그 구조가 단순하여 원가를 절감할 수 한다.

Power electronics is a key technology for electric, hybrid, plug-in hybrid, and fuel cell vehicles. Typical power electronics converters used in electric drive vehicles include dc/dc converters, inverters, and battery chargers. New semiconductor materials such as silicon carbide (SiC) and novel topologies such as the Z-source inverter (ZSI) have a great deal of potential to improve the overall performance of these vehicles. In this paper, a Z-source inverter for fuel cell vehicle application is examined under three different scenarios. 1. a ZSI with Si IGBT modules, 2. a ZSI with hybrid modules, Si IGBTs/SiC Schottky diodes, and 3. a ZSI with SiC MOSFETs/SiC Schottky diodes. Then, a comparison of the three scenarios is conducted. Conduction loss, switching loss, reverse recovery loss, and efficiency are considered for comparison. A conclusion is drawn that the SiC devices can improve the inverter and inverter-motor efficiency, and reduce the system size and cost due to the low loss properties of SiC devices. A comparison between a ZSI and traditional PWM inverters with SiC devices is also presented in this paper. Based on this comparison, the Z-source inverter produces the highest efficiency.

In response to drastic environmental changes, companies have been continuously rebalancing their resources and capabilities to sustain their competitive status or to survive difficult times. The aim of this study is to analyze the effect of sudden environmental changes on the competitive status of a firm and to identify the internal factors that differentiate sustainer and non-sustainer groups. To achieve this goal, we selected 85 representative IT and non-IT companies from the S&P 500 companies and investigated them with respect to the change in their five-year competitive status since the 2008 global financial crisis. As a concrete performance measure, the concept of perceived competitive status (PCS) was introduced, and four distinct PCS categories were identified by using the stock price changes during the selected period. The four distinct PCS categories are "sustaining," "drifting," "deep sunken," and "bouncing back." Discriminant analysis was performed on these four distinct PCS categories. The empirical study conducted showed that revenue and cost efficiency are the most discriminating factors, especially in the economic recovery period. In particular, stronger financial liquidity was observed in high-performing "bouncing back" companies than in the other category companies.

Although most clinicians now agree that sinusitis can afflict children of all ages, appropriate diagnosis remain controversial. Sinusitis is one of the most challenging diagnoses for a clinician, because there is a lack of validated diagnostic criteria for acute rhinosinusitis. Symptoms generally include nasal congestion, purulent nasal discharge, and cough .The physical examination is often unsuccessful in confirming the diagnosis. If purulent discharge is seen oozing from the middle meatus, the diagnosis of acute rhinosinusitis is almost certain. Purulent drainage may also be seen in the posterior pharynx and accompanied by halitosis. Absence of light by transillumination may indicate acute rhinosinusitis. Imaging studies are not necessary to confirm the diagnosis of sinusitis in children younger than 6 years and should be used sparingly in children older than 6 years. Sinus radiographs still have several advantages over CT scanning including the relatively low cost and the ability to obtain films without the use of sedation in younger children. Positive findings of sinusitis on plain film include air-fluid levels, complete opacification, or mucosal thickening greater then 4 mm. The CT scan however, is significantly more sensitive then plain films in detecting these abnormalities. Although recovery of bacteria from a sinus aspiration is considered reference standard for diagnosis in pediatric rhinosinusitis, its routine used by pediatricians is not practical and therefore is not recommended.

Ecological restoration is regarded as a major strategy for preventing biodiversity loss and thereby enhancing ecosystem service. This study was performed to evaluate ecosystem service value that the restored ecosystem provides. Ecosystem service was evaluated for provisioning and regulating services. The former service was evaluated by comparing similarities in a viewpoint of floristic composition to the reference site between the restored and the unrestored sites. Species composition of the restored site was found to be more similar to the reference site than that of the unrestored site and thereby restoration practice contributed for enhancing the provisioning service. Regulating service was evaluated based on microclimate control, soil amelioration, and improvement of water holding capacity. The value of ecosystem services in terms of microclimate control, soil amelioration, and improvement of water holding capacity was higher in the restored site than in the unrestored site. In consequence, ecological restoration of coal mine spoils contributed for enhancing the ecosystem service value of the corresponding site and thereby is rewarding the cost invested for restoration.
