Purpose: Malignant peripheral nerve sheath tumor without neurofibromatosis type 1 is very rare neoplasm. Development in the superficial soft tissue is exremely rare. Authors experienced one rare case of primary malignant peripheral nerve sheath tumor developed on abdomen. The clinical and histologic findings were described. Methods: An 83-year-old man visited hospital with an $11{\times}6.5{\times}4.5$ cm sized ulcerated and hemorrhagic mass on abdomen. The tumor was localized in abdominal skin and started growing 3 years ago. Results: Wide excision with safety margin of 2 cm and limberg flap was done. The postoperative biopsy revealed a malignant peripheral nerve sheath tumor. There was no evidence of recurrence of tumor for 16 months. Conclusion: Malignant peripheral nerve sheath tumor is an aggressive malignant tumor. An abrupt enlargement of size, ulceration and bleeding are suggestive of malignant chnages of the tumor. We recommand early wide excision with enough safety margin as treatment of malignant peripheral nerve sheath tumor.

This paper discusses the characteristics of sheath circulating current as well as the development and application of new software for underground power cable systems. Generally, in steady state, high sheath circulating current causes the increase of sheath temperature and thermal resistance which leads to the steeply reduction of the power capacity. Therefore, the exact calculation of sheath circulating current is required for analysis about the influence of high sheath current on permissible current. In this paper, Power Cable Simulator is developed for calculation of the sheath current. It can analyse the sheath current by real time. It is also easier to use than conventional software, such as EMTP and CabSim, because all the data for calculating the cable parameters are stored in a database(DB) within Power Cable Simulator. In addition, the accuracy of Power Cable Simulator is also proved through the comparison among the current calculated by Power Cable Simulator, EMTP and Cabsim with measured current.

The use of underground transmission cables has continuously increased in densely inhabited urban and suburban area. Due to a increasing demand of underground cables, two or more circuits are installed in parallel for several kilometers. It, however, has not been realized that the sheath circulating current is generated in the system where a large number of cables are laid in the same route. In this paper, sheath circulating current is analyzed by the EMTP and compared with the measured values. Unbalance arrangement of cables or cross-bonding length causes a significant effect on the magnitude of the sheath current. Sheath circulating current could be greatly reduced by the symmetrical configuration of cables and installation of the impedance reduction system. Especially, with the impedance system of 1Ω installed, the sheath circulating current is reduced by 85.7%.

This paper investigated the characteristics of the physical properties of woven fabrics according to the yarn structure and fibre property. It was found that wicking property of woven fabrics made of sheath/core hybrid yarn were better than those of siro spun and siro-fil hybrid yarns, which was caused by platform for transport of moisture vapor by filaments on the core part of sheath core hybrid yarns. In drying property, the fabric specimen woven by PP/Tencel sheath core hybrid yarns as a warp and Coolmax/Tencel spun yarn as a weft showed quick drying property, which was caused by the sheath core hybrid yarn structure as drainage of water moisture and coolmax fibre characteristics as quick dry material. Concerning to breathability and thermal conductivity as heat transport phenomena, it was observed that breathability of fabrics woven with hybrid yarns such as sheath core and siro-fil in the warp and hi-multi filaments in the weft showed the lowest water vapor resistance, which was explained as due to for air gap in the fibres of the spun yarns to restrict the wet heat transport from perspiration vapor. Thermal conductivities of the fabrics woven with PET/Tencel siro-fil yarns in the weft and hybrid yarns such as sheath core and siro-fil in the warp revealed the highest values, which was observed as due to higher thermal conductivity of PET than PP and more contact point between fibres in the siro-fil and sheath core hybrid yarns.

It is very important not only to detect PD signal but also to locate PD source in power cable line including its accessories. In this paper, the PID localization technique using interruption of metal sheath of cable or accessory is described. By interruption of metal sheath, the polarity of PD pulse to be measured on each part can be compared. With this technique, the exact location of PD in the accessory which has some defects can be found. Although the 'Soft' interruption method, that is, cable sheath is divided by semi-conductive layer with the resistance of higher than 1 k$\Omega$, was used instead of 'Hard' interruption method, it is also possible to detect exact location of PD. This technique is considered to be very effective for detecting PD localization in the type test of cable and accessories.

This paper describes the analysis of sheath circulating current and various methods to reduce the large circulating current in case of operating cable system using EMTP/ATPDraw. And also, possible methods are proposed through a detailed analysis regarding cable systems by considering various electrical and environmental factors. It is evaluated that the proposed reduction methods can be effectively applied to reduce the large sheath circulating over current with the minimized electrical problems.

This paper describes the sheath induced voltage in underground transmission cable system which will be operated with cable cover protection unit(CCPU). Simulation was carried out to analyze the sheath induced voltage in the real cable system which was installed by 154㎸ CV cable in the case with and without CCPU. The sheath induced voltage will be also analyzed according to the change of grounding method, fault resistance and fault angle. Simulation was performed using EMTP and ATP Draw, the simulation results show whether the CCPU in necessary or not in underground transmission power cable system.

Ion implantation is a well established superior superior surface modification technique for the improvement of wear resistance, hardenece, hardness, corrosion resistance, biocompaibity, surface friction, as well as for the modification of surface electric conductance. Conventional ion implantaion is a line-of-sight process witch ues the ion beam accelerator techniques. Plasma sheath ion implantation (PSII), as a new technique, is described in this paper. In PSII high voltage pulse is applied to a target material placed directly in a plasma, forming a think ion-matrix sheath around the target. Ions accelerate through the sheath drop and bombard the traget from all sides simultaneosuslyregardless of the target shape. This paper describes the principle of PSII, which has non-line-of sight characteristics, as well as the experimental appratus.

It is well known that the understanding of the complex mechanism of magnetoplasma is closely related with understanding of the collective behavior of discharge plasma parameters such as the cathode-sheath potential, cathode-sheath thickness, electron temperature, electron density, and ambipolar diffusion. In this paper, some of the relationships between these plasma parameters and magnetic field is investigated experimentally with a Langmuir probe in the magnetoplasma generated by D.C diode system. It is found that when magnetic field is increased, cathode-sheath potential, cathode-sheath thickness, and ambipolar diffusion are decreased. In addition, peak ion density obtained as a parameter of ionic signal voltage by Faraday cup method is independent of magnetic field. (author). 9 refs., 11 figs.,1 tab.
