최근 도심지 공사에 있어서는 공간부족 및 주변환경의 영향으로 기성파일의 시공이 불가능한 경우가 많다. 이러한 경우에 소형 장비로 시공이 가능하고 기존 파일의 지지능력을 발휘할 수 있는 소구경 파일 공법이 많이 사용되고 있다. 소구경 파일공법은 현장타설말뚝의 한 종류로서 파일의 직경이 75mm~300mm인 정도로 주변 구조물이나 지반 그리고 공간적인 장애물이 있는 경우에도 시공의 어려움이 거의 없으며 모든 종류의 토질조건에서 시공이 가능하다. 또한 시공과정에서 진동과 소음이 적고 건물 천장이 낮은 곳에서도 시공이 가능하므로 기존 건물의 기초보강에도 많이 이용된다. 이러한 마이크로파일이 압축력이나 인장력을 받았을 때 혹은 시공된 지반특성에 따라 변화되는 거동 특성에 대해서는 연구가 많지 않은 실정이다. 따라서 이 연구에서는 현장에 시공된 마이크로파일에 대한 현장재하시험 자료 분석을 통하여 마이크로 파일에 압축력 및 인장력을 가했을 경우 지반을 구성하는 성분과 파일의 근입조건에 따른 침하 및 지지력 특성을 규명하고 통계분석프로그램인 SAS를 활용하여 마이크로파일의 침하와 지지력에 영향을 미치는 주요한 인자에 대한 분석을 수행하였다.

소프트웨어의 비약적인 발전으로 인해 전문가들에 의해서만 가능하였던 디지털 컨텐츠에 대한 복사, 변질이 일반인들에 의해서도 손쉽게 되었다. 이렇게 디지털 컨텐츠는 여러 장점에도 불구하고 많은 문제점을 야기하게 되었다. 따라서 컨덴츠의 제작자는 소유권 주장이나 내용의 변질에 대한 인증과 검증을 필요로 하게 되었다. 본 논문에서는 디지털 비디오 콘텐츠에 적합한 동영상 워터마킹을 제안하여 MPEG-2 부호기와 복호기에 적용하였고, 동영상에 워터마크를 삽입하기 위해 블록 재정렬 알고리즘과 SCL(Secret Code List)을 제안하여 알고리즘의 기밀성(confidentiality)과 무결성(integrity)을 동시에 만족하였다. 제안한 동영상 워터마킹 시스템의 실험결과는 CIF 크기의 MPEG-2 동영상을 기준으로 16대 1의 압축비에서 최대 3kbps의 워터마크 삽입용량과 추출된 워터마크가 0.99이상의 상관도를 가지는 강인함과 워터마크 된 동영상의 화질열화와 비트율의 변화가 없는 장점을 가지며, 압축과 크기변경 등의 트랜스코딩(Transcoding) 공격에 대해 강건함을 보였다.

Purpose: We investigate biases in the assessments of left ventricular function (LVF), by compressed sensing (CS)-cine magnetic resonance imaging (MRI). Materials and Methods: Cardiovascular cine images with short axis view, were obtained for 8 volunteers without CS. LVFs were assessed with subsampled data, with compression factors (CF) of 2, 3, 4, and 8. A semi-automatic segmentation program was used, for the assessment. The assessments by 3 CS methods (ITSC, FOCUSS, and view sharing (VS)), were compared to those without CS. Bland-Altman analysis and paired t-test were used, for comparison. In addition, real-time CS-cine imaging was also performed, with CF of 2, 3, 4, and 8 for the same volunteers. Assessments of LVF were similarly made, for CS data. A fixed compensation technique is suggested, to reduce the bias. Results: The assessment of LVF by CS-cine, includes bias and random noise. Bias appeared much larger than random noise. Median of end-diastolic volume (EDV) with CS-cine (ITSC or FOCUSS) appeared -1.4% to -7.1% smaller, compared to that of standard cine, depending on CF from (2 to 8). End-systolic volume (ESV) appeared +1.6% to +14.3% larger, stroke volume (SV), -2.4% to -16.4% smaller, and ejection fraction (EF), -1.1% to -9.2% smaller, with P < 0.05. Bias was reduced from -5.6% to -1.8% for EF, by compensation applied to real-time CS-cine (CF = 8). Conclusion: Loss of temporal resolution by adopting missing data from nearby cardiac frames, causes an underestimation for EDV, and an overestimation for ESV, resulting in underestimations for SV and EF. The bias is not random. Thus it should be removed or reduced for better diagnosis. A fixed compensation is suggested, to reduce bias in the assessment of LVF.

Background: Cystic fibrosis (CF) is an autosomal recessive disorder with several clinical presentations. This study was undertaken in the Azeri Turkish population in Iran, to investigate gender differences in the age at onset and diagnosis, age of death, and duration of illness of CF. Methods: The data of 331 CF patients from 2001 to 2015 was surveyed. Parameters including age, sex, ${\Delta}F508$ mutation, age at onset, age at diagnosis, age of death and clinical presentations were evaluated for both sexes, using descriptive analysis. The association of gender with these variables was studied using logistic regression, chi-square test and Mann-Whitney U test by SPSS version 18. Odds ratio with a confidence interval of 95% and $p{\leq}0.05$ was considered statistically significant. Results: The study included 191 males (57.7%) and 140 females (42.3%), all showing statistically significant difference (p<0.001). Age duration differed between genders. Male and female patients were further under 9 and 4 years, respectively. The occurrence of ${\Delta}F508$ mutation was 0.51 times more in females than in males. Age, diagnosis and sex were closely associated: males were diagnosed at a significantly later age than females (p=0.05). While this compression performed based on clinical presentations, males with respiratory disease had a later median age at diagnosis than females at lifespan (p=0.001). The risk of infertility in males was approximately two times greater than in females (p=0.02). Conclusion: These findings indicate gender differences in CF patients. Future studies are needed to establish other differences and evaluate the causes for the gender variations.

Purpose: Complete release of the transverse carpal ligament (TCL) is accepted as the standard treatment for carpal tunnel syndrome (CTS). However, loss of grip and pinch power are reported in some patients after complete release of the TCL. This study was designed to evaluate the effectiveness of complete versus partial carpal tunnel release by using the inching technique. Methods: Nineteen patients (a total of 27 hands) who each had a confirmed diagnosis of CTS were selected from September 2002 to February 2003. The cases were divided into three groups(mild, moderate and severe) based on preoperative electrodiagnostic studies. The patients with partial carpal tunnel syndrome were classified into the mild or moderate groups, while patients with complete carpal tunnel syndrome were classified into the moderate or severe groups. Patient oriented data (functional and symptomatic) were collected and electrophysiologic studies were undertaken preoperatively and postoperatively(on the 2nd week, 1st month, 3rd month and 6th month after surgery).Results: In this study, the mild and moderate groups showed both good functional and symptomatic results and improvements in electrophysiologic studies.Conclusion: Carpal tunnel syndrome patients classified into mild or moderate groups based on nerve conduction studies, and whose precise compression sites were pinpointed using the inching technique, can be treated by partial carpal tunnel release.

The paper presents the details and results of an experimental study on bolted end-plate joints of industrial type steel building frames. The investigated joints are commonly used in Lindab-Astron industrial buildings and are optimized for manufacturing, erection and durability. The aim of the research was to provide an experimental background for the design model development by studying load-bearing capacity of joints, bolt force distribution, and end-plate deformations. Because of the special joint details, (i.e., joints with four bolts in one bolt-row and HammerHead arrangements), the Eurocode 3 standardized component model had to be improved and extended. The experimental programme included six different end-plate and bolt arrangements and covered sixteen specimens. The steel grade of test specimens was S355, the bolt diameter M20, whereas the bolt grade was 8.8 and 10.9 for the two series. The end-plate thickness varied between 12 mm and 24 mm. The specimens were investigated under pure bending conditions using a four-point-bending test arrangement. In all tests the typical displacements and the bolt force distribution were measured. The end-plate plastic deformations were measured after the tests by an automatic measuring device. The measured data were presented and evaluated by the moment-bolt-row force and moment-distance from centre of compression diagrams and by the deformed end-plate surfaces. From the results the typical failure modes and the joint behaviour were specified and presented. Furthermore the influence of the end-plate thickness and the pretension of the bolts on the behaviour of bolted joints were analysed.
