Recently, coastal structures have been built to protect coastal areas. However, if a tidal wave caused by an earthquake hits the coast, it would cause catastrophic damages. It is important to analyze the basics and the characteristics of a tsunami to reduce damages caused by natural disasters. In this study, a tsunami passing over different topographical changes is simulated with VOF method based on FVM(Finite Volume Method). The reduction of both scale and velocity is accomplished by similarity analysis, and an initial energy is generated by increasing the water level as needed to create a tsunami as if it is caused by a crustal movement. It is found that the present method is appropriate to simulate the tsunami with its mechanism.

Minor mergers leave behind long lived, but extremely faint and extended tidal features including tails, streams, loops and plumes. These act as a fossil record for the host galaxy's past interactions, allowing us to infer recent accretion histories and place constraints on the properties and nature of a galaxy's dark matter halo. However, shallow imaging or small homogeneous samples of past surveys have resulted in weak observational constraints on the role of galaxy mergers and interactions in galaxy assembly. The Rubin Observatory, which is optimised to deliver fast, wide field-of-view imaging, will enable deep and unbiased observations over the 18,000 square degrees of the Legacy Survey of Space and Time (LSST), resulting in samples of potentially of millions of objects undergoing tidal interactions. Using realistic mock images produced with state-of-the-art cosmological simulations we perform a comprehensive theoretical investigation of the extended diffuse light around galaxies and galaxy groups down to low stellar mass densities. We consider the nature, frequency and visibility of tidal features and debris across a range of environments and stellar masses as well as their reliability as an indicator of galaxy accretion histories. We consider how observational biases such as projection effects, the point-spread-function and survey depth may effect the proper characterisation and measurement of tidal features, finding that LSST will be capable of recovering much of the flux found in the outskirts of L* galaxies at redshifts beyond local volume. In our simulated sample, tidal features are ubiquitous In L* galaxies and remain common even at significantly lower masses (M*>10^10 Msun). The fraction of stellar mass found in tidal features increases towards higher masses, rising to 5-10% for the most massive objects in our sample (M*~10^11.5 Msun). Such objects frequently exhibit many distinct tidal features often with complex morphologies, becoming increasingly numerous with increased depth. The interpretation and characterisation of such features can vary significantly with orientation and imaging depth. Our findings demonstrate the importance of accounting for the biases that arise from projection effects and surface-brightness limits and suggest that, even after the LSST is complete, much of the discovery space in low surface-brightness Universe will remain to be explored.

Purpose: The purpose of this study was to develop an assistant device for the promotion of bag-valve-mask ventilation based on a non-equivalent control group pre-test and post-test design. Methods: The experimental tool was a mask assistance device developed by the researchers. Data were analyzed using SPSS 21.0 with the cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR) evaluation program from August 18 to 30, 2016. The research tools included general, hand-related, and ventilation-related characteristics. Results: Before and after using the mask assistance device, the tidal volume increased by 64 mL (p<.001) from 461.76 mL to 525.86 mL. The tidal volume for control was 477.86 mL, and there was a statistical difference (p<.05). The ventilation frequency in device users was 10 times per minute for a total of 20 ventilations with before 10.65 after 10 times, and that of the control group was before 10.36 times after 10 times; there was no difference in both groups(p>.05). The accuracy of the assistance device was $81.72{\pm}30.86%$, which was a very high value. However, the accuracy of ventilation in the control group with no assistance device was $18.97{\pm}32.44%$, which was a very low accuracy rate. Conclusion: This study's results suggested utilizing the newly-developed mask assistance device in CPR, and showed increases in tidal volume and accuracy of ventilation using the bag-valve-mask ventilation equipment. The general and hand-related characteristics did not have any effect, so the use of the device proved to increase the efficacy in all users.

The efficacies of a supraglottic airway device (SGAD) and an endotracheal tube (ETT) in cats under general anesthesia with volume-controlled ventilation (VCV) were compared. Thirty healthy cats were randomly allocated for airway control using either an SGAD or an ETT. Five tidal volumes (6, 8, 10, 12, and 14 mL/kg) were randomly tested, and respiratory rates were adjusted to achieve a minute ventilation of 100 mL/kg/min. The dose of propofol necessary to insert the SGAD or ETT, the static respiratory pressure, leakage during VCV, and end tidal CO₂ (ETCO₂) were recorded. Dosages of propofol and static respiratory measurements for the SGAD and ETT groups were compared using a t-test. The distribution of leakages and hypercapnia (ETCO₂ > 45 mmHg) were compared using Fisher's exact test. A significance level of p < 0.05 was established. No significant difference in dose of propofol was observed between the SGAD and ETT groups (7.1 ± 1.0, 7.3 ± 1.7 mg/kg; p = 0.55). Static resistance pressure of the SGAD (22.0 ± 8.1 cmH₂O/L/sec) was significantly lower than that of the ETT (36.6 ± 12.9 cmH₂O/L/sec; p < 0.01). Of the 75 trials, leakage was more frequent when using an SGAD (8 events) than when using an ETT (1 event; p = 0.03). Hypercapnia occurred more frequently with SGAD (18 events) than with ETT (3 events; p < 0.01). Although intubation with an ETT is the gold standard in small animal anesthesia, the use of an SGAD can reduce airway resistance and the work of breathing. Nonetheless, SGAD had more dead space and the tidal volume for VCV needs adjustment.

배 경 : Matrix metalloproteinase(MMPs), 특히 주로 염증세포에서 분비되는 MMP-9은 여러 가지 급성폐손상 모델 및 급성호흡곤란증후군 환자에서 증가하고, 최근에는 주기적인 물리적 스트레스가 폐포대식세포 및 결체조직세포에서 MMP-9의 생성 및 활성을 증가시키는 것으로 보고된 바 있다. 따라서 본 연구에서는 기계환기로 인한 백서의 급성폐손상에서 MMP-9의 발현 및 MMP 억제제(MMPI)의 효과에 대해서 연구하고자 하였다. 방 법 : Sprague-Dawley 백서를 적은 일호흡량(tidal volume, $V_T$)과 적절한 호기말양압(positive end-expiratory pressure, PEEP)을 적용한 LVT군과 많은 일호흡량과 PEEP을 적용하지 않은 HVT군 및 동일한 조건에서 MMPI를 투여한 HVT+MMPI의 세 군으로 나누어 실험하였다. MMPI로는 CMT-3(chemically modified tetracycline-3)를 기계환기 3일 전부터 구강으로 투약하였다. 폐손상의 정도는 습건중량비와 급성 폐손상지수로 측정하였고, MMP-9의 발현은 면역조직화학염색으로 고찰하였다. 결 과 : 습건중량비, 급성 폐손상지수 및 MMP-9의 발현이 HVT 군에서 다른 두군에 비하여 유의하게 높았고(p<0.05), HVT+MMP군에서 HVT군에 비하여 폐손상의 정도 및 MMP-9의 발현이 현저하게 낮았다(p<0.05). 결과적으로 MMPI의 투여가 MMP-9의 발현을 저하시킴으로써 기계환기로 인한 폐손상의 정도를 유의하게 감소시키는 것으로 관찰되었다 결 론 : 많은 일호흡량과 PEEP을 적용치 않은 기계환기는 폐조직에서 MMP-9의 발현을 유의하게 증가시켜 폐손상을 유발하고, MMPI는 MMP-9의 작용을 억제함으로써 기계환기로 인한 폐손상의 정도를 유의하게 감소시키는 것으로 판단된다.

The hypothesis of asymmetric resistance to explain the phenomenon of lung hyperinflation (LHI) during hlgh frequency ventilation (HFV) was quantitatively studied. LHI was predicted by modeling the ism-volume pressure-flow (IVPF) data from 5 human subjects using the empirical Rohrer's equation. Non-steadiness during HFV was compensated by em- ploying recently proposed volume-frequency diagram. Tidal volume and ventilation frequency were 100 ml and 20 Hz, respectively. Airflow pattern was a symmetric sinusoid. The predic- tion results of mean pressure drop across the airways were averaged for those 5 subjects, and compared with zero by one-sided student's t-test. A marginally significant (P<0.1) increase in mean pressure drop was observed during HFV at low lung volumes (below FRC) , which could increase mean lung volume up to one liter When the lung volume was above FRC, no significant LHI (P >0.25) was resulted. LHI seemed to be inversely related to the lung volume. These results recommend to clinically apply HFV only at lung volumes above FRC.

High salinity and sodicity of soils play a negative role in producing crops in reclaimed tidal lands. To evaluate the effects of soil ameliorants on salt removal in a highly saline and sodic soil of reclaimed tidal land, we conducted a column experiment with treating gypsum, compost, and phosphate at 0-2 cm depth and measured the salt concentration of leachate and soil. Electrical conductivity of leachate was $45-48dSm^{-1}$ at 1 pore volume (PV) of water and decreased to less than $3dSm^{-1}$ at 3 PV of water. Gypsum significantly decreased SAR (sodium adsorption ratio) of leachate below 3 at 3 PV of water and soil ESP (exchangeable sodium percentage) below 3% for the whole profile of soil column. Compost significantly decreased ESP of soil at 0-5 cm depth to 5% compared with the control (20%). However, compost affected little the composition of cations below a depth of 5 cm and in leachate compared with control treatment. It was concluded that gypsum was effective in ameliorating reclaimed tidal lands at and below a soil layer receiving gypsum while compost worked only at a soil layer where compost was treated.

연구배경 : 일정한 분시 유지하면서도 기도압의 하나인 압력조절용적조정양식(PRVC)의 입상적 유용성에 대한 보고는 없었다. 본 연구는 호흡역학이 불안정한 환자에서 PRVC 양식이 원래의 개발 목적대로 압력 조절 양식에 비해 일호흡량을 일정하게 유지하면서 용적조절양식에 비해 기도압을 낮게 유지하는지를 관찰하였다. 연구방법 : 기계 호흡 중이며 활력징후의 안정을 보이는 환자 중 15분간 관찰 결과 VCV에서 최고 홉기압의 변이계수가 10이상으로 최고 홉기압의 변화가 심하거나, PCV에서 상시 호흡량의 변이계수가 10이상으로 일 호흡량의 변화가 심한 환자 8 명(남 : 녀=6 : 2, $56{\pm}26$세)를 대상으로 하여 일호흡량을 비슷한 유지하도록 VCV, PCV, PRVC 양식을 설정한 후 각 환기양식에서 15분간 일호흡량과 최고 흡기압을 관찰하였다. 결 과 : 1) 평균 일호흡량은 VCV에서 $431{\pm}102ml$, PCV에서 $417{\pm}99ml$, PRVC에서 $414{\pm}97ml$였으며 각 환기양식 간에 차이가 없었다. 2) 상시 호흡량의 변이계수는 VCV에서 $5.2{\pm}3.9%$, PCV에서 $15.2{\pm}7.5%$ PRVC에서 $19.3{\pm}10.0%$로 PCV와 PRVC에서 상시 호흡량의 변화가 심하였다(p<0.01). 3) 평균 최고 홉기압은 VCV에서 $31.0{\pm}6.9cm$ $H_2O$, PCV에서 $26.0{\pm}6.5cm$ $H_2O$, PRVC에서 $27.0{\pm}6.4cm$ $H_2O$로 PCV와 PRVC의 최고 흡기압의 VCV의 경우보다 낮게 유지되었다(p<0.01). 4) 최고 홉기압의 변이계수는 VCV에서 $13.9{\pm}3.7%$, PCV에서 $4.9{\pm}2.6%$, PRVC에서 $12.2{\pm}7.0%$로 VCV와 PRVC에서 최고 홉기압의 변동이 심하였다(p<0.01). 결 론 : PRVC 양식은 호흡역학이 불안정한 환자에서는 VCV에 비해 평균 최고 홉기압은 낮게 유지하였으나 최고 흡기압의 변동이 심하였고, PCV에 비해 상시 호흡량의 변동이 심하여 이중조절환기양식 본래의 목적을 달성하기 어려울 것으로 사료된다.
