Studies were performed on evaluating the applicability of activated carbon bugs on dye tracer tests as tracer detectors by using its adsorption isotherm of the grained activated carbon. We preliminary conducted several standard adsorption and extraction tests and obtained the relationship between standard dye solution and detected concentrations from activated carbon samples in dry and wet conditions. the slopes of the regression line were 0.71 for wet condition and 0.74 for dried one. Field dye tracer tests were performed in a karst area, where several faults occur along a stream and pass the test area. We sampled water samples and activated carbon samples at three points in Hwangji Pond, where groundwater outflows from the karst conduit. According to the results of breakthrough curve analysis, the regional flow along the conduit, which is assumed to cause a karst conduit, was estimated as 0.18 m/day. The relationship between the concentrations of water sample and extracted activated carbon bugs shows the similar slopes with those from standard solution tests. This suggests that activated carbon could be useful as a dye tracer detector because the extraced concentration can be quantified.

A numerical investigation has been carried out for a solar system, which consists of all glass solar vacuum tubes Water is heated as it flows through the coaxial fluid conduit inserted in each tube. The space between the exterior of the fluid conduit and the glass tube is filled with antifreeze solution. This is to facilitate heat transfer from the solar heated absorber surface to water and to prevent the functional problems due to freezing in frigid weather conditions. A one-dimensional steady state model is fully described which will be used to develop three-dimensional model using STAR-CD. These models could be used efficiently in designing all-glass solar collector tubes with different geometrical parameters other than those considered in the present analysis. Results show good agreement when compared with other experimental data demonstrating the reliability of the present model.

A numerical study has been carried out for a solar water heater which consists of double skin solar vacuum tubes. Water is heated as it flows through the coaxial fluid conduit inserted in each tube. The space between the exterior of the fluid conduit and the glass tube is tilled with antifreeze solution. This is to facilitate heat transfer from the solar heated absorber surface to water and to prevent the functional problems due to freezing in frigid weather conditions. A one-dimensional steady state model is fully described which will be used to develop three-dimensional model using STAR-CD. These models could be used efficiently in designing double skin solar collector tubes with different geometrical parameters other than those considered in the present analysis. Results show a good agreement when compared with other experimental data demonstrating the reliability of the one-dimensional model employed.

최근 각종 멀티미디어 서비스의 제공은 전송데이터의 급격한 증가를 가져왔으며, 이러한 서비스의 원활한 제공을 위해서는 초고속 통신망의 구축이 불가피하게 되었다. 초고속 통신망의 구축은 막대한 비용을 요구하기 때문에 망 구축비용의 감소를 위해서는 기존에 설치된 관로를 고려해야한다. 또한 초고속 통신망은 하나의 선로에 많은 양의 데이터가 전송되므로 한 선로에 문제가 있는 경우 막대한 손실이 발생하는 특징을 지닌다. 이 때문에 전체 네트워크를 일정수준이상의 생존도를 가질 수 있게 설계하여야한다. 이러한 문제의 해결을 위해서 기존의 논문에서는 비용을 줄이기 위해 고려된 기존 관로를 다음 단계에서 배제하여 한 관로를 여러 경로에서 사용함으로써 얻을 수 있는 비용 절감효과를 상실하였다. 그러나 본 논문에서는 생존도를 유지하는 범위 내에서 기존에 설치된 관로를 최대한 고려하여 비용 절감을 극대화한 네트워크를 효과적으로 설계하는 방법을 제안한다. 제안한 방법을 사용하여 실험한 결과에 따르면 기존의 방법에 비해 약 7%의 비용절감 효과를 얻을수 있었다.

Background: Graft vessel preservation solution in coronary artery bypass surgery is used to maintain the graft conduit in optimal condition during the perioperative period. Nafamostat mesilate (NM) has anticoagulation and anti-inflammatory properties. Therefore, we investigated NM as a conduit preservative agent and compared it to papaverine. Methods: Sprague-Dawley (SD) rat thoracic aortas were examined for their contraction-relaxation ability using phenylephrine (PE) and acetylcholine (ACh) following preincubation with papaverine and NM in standard classical organ baths. Human umbilical vein endothelial cells (HUVECs) were cultured to check for the endothelial cell viability. Histopathological examination and terminal deoxynucleotidyl transferase dUTP nick end labeling assay were performed on the thoracic aortas of SD rats. Results: The anti-contraction effects of papaverine were superior to those of NM at PE (p<0.05). The relaxation effect of NM on ACh-induced vasodilatation was not statistically different from that of papaverine. Viability assays using HUVECs showed endothelial cell survival rates of >90% in various concentrations of both NM and papaverine. A histopathological study showed a protective effect against necrosis and apoptosis (p<0.05) in the NM group. Conclusion: NM exhibited good vascular relaxation and a reasonable anti-vasocontraction effect with a better cell protecting effect than papaverine; therefore, we concluded that NM is a good potential conduit preserving agent.

We address the problem of designing a physical CATV network with switched-star topology in which the broadband interactive service is provided. There are two types of decision variables: One is where to place conduit paths, and the other is how many cable units to be installed on each link traversed by an established conduit path. Due to the serious drawback of the conventional approach partitioning the problem into two subproblems, the unified approach handled in one setting is used here to attack the whole problem without dividing into two ones. In this paper, we present a mathematical design model and propose an efficient solution method exploiting the nice structure of it. In addition to this physical design, some results on logical network configuration have also been made. Finally, computaional experiments are conducted to illustrate the efficiency of our design approach.

Glutaraldehyde have been used as the most effective cross-linking agent for stabilizing collagen fibers and preventing biodegradation. We processed bovine pericardium in a solution containing 0.625% glutaraldehyde,0.05M HEPES buffer and 0.26% magnesium chloride in saline. The glutaraldehyde-preserved bovine pericardium was implanted in 36 patients at Seoul National University Hospital during a 11-month period between May 1989 and March 1990. 24 were males and 12 females, with ages ranging from 6 months to 168 months [mean age of 43 months]. In 12 patients, the glutaraldehyde-preserved bovine pericardium was used for orthotopic reconstruction of the pericardial sac. In 24 patients. the glutaraldehyde-preserved bovine pericardium was heterotopically implanted.; pulmonary monocusp implant and RVQT [right ventricular outflow tract] patch widening were performed in 10 patients, pulmonary monocusp implant in 6, RVOT patch widening in 4, valved conduit in 2, conduit and pulmonary angioplasty in 1, and ventricular septation in l. With vascular suture techniques, the anastomoses were immediately tight. There was no bleeding from the needle holes and no oozing through bovine pericardium itself. During the follow-up period of up to 10 months, no infections of the glutaraldehyde-preserved bovine pericardium occurred and no bovine pericardium-related complications were observed in this series.

An experimental study was performed to evaluate the efficacy of nerve growth factor(NGF) on inferior alveolar nerve in a rabbit model. In 20 New Zealand white rabbits, 14mm of bilat eral alveolar nerve were resected and the defects were repaired with the 17mm silicone conduits. In group I, 5mm autologous nerve segment were located centrally in the left side after tubulization and NGF solution(Sigma chemical 0.1 mg/mL) was instilled into each conduit. In group II, nerve repair modality was the same but no NGF solution was instilled into the conduits. On 2 months and 6 months postoperatively, the results were evaluated by clinical and hist omorphometric assessment. The result was that autologous nerve segment group show the best nerve regeneration effect and NGF instilled group the worst.

Skeletonization of the internal mammary artery [IMA during myocardial revascularization procedures may provide some advantages, compared with the pedicle graft of the artery. In 17 patients undergoing IMA grafting by skeletonization technique, flow through the artery was measured on mean arterial pressure of 50-55 mmHg immediately after cardiopulmonary bypass started [first flow and just before its anastomosis to left anterior descending artery [second flow . In 16 patients except 1 patient whose graft was injured during mobilization, the first flow of IMA graft was 32.3 $\pm$ 7.4 ml/min and the second flow increased to 59.6$\pm$25.9 ml/min without any treatment and the site for anastomosis of the IMA graft was more than 1.0 cm above the bifurcation. On the basis of previous clinical studies, the flow of the skeletonized IMA was greater than that of the pedicle graft [59.6 $\pm$ 25.9 ml/min versus 37.7$\pm$ 14.1 ml/min, p < 0.05 . In comparison between the skeletonized IMA and the IMA graft intraluminally dilated with papaverine solution, there was no significant difference between two flows[59.6 $\pm$25.7 ml/min versus 74.7 $\pm$31.4 ml/min, not significant , but the former showed longer graft and anastomosis of more proximal portion of the graft to left anterior descending artery. In conclusion, the technique of internal mammary artery skeletonization has consistently produced a satifactory conduit for myocardial revascularization procedures. We have adopted IMA skeletonization not only because of the flow, diameter, and vessel length obtained but also because of limited perivascular tissue disruption that occurs during the dissection.
