For comparison to the Li-ion battery, evaluating a thermal battery must consider additional variables. The first one is the temperature difference between the battery and its unit cell. Thermal batteries and their unit cells have a temperature difference that is caused by the thermal battery activation mechanism and its shape. The second variable is the electrochemical reaction steps. Most Li-ion batteries have a constant electrochemical reaction at the electrode, and battery voltage is affected when the concentration of Li ions is changed. However, a thermal battery has several steps in its electrochemical reaction, and each step has a different potential. In this study, we used unit cell discharge tests based on interpolating a 4D lookup table to estimate the performance of a thermal battery. From the test results, we derived an estimation algorithm by interpolating the table, which is queried from specified profile groups. As a result, we found less than a 5 percent difference between estimation and experiment at the 1.3 V cut-off time.

신뢰성 기법을 도입하여 경사식 해안 구조물에 발생하는 월파현상을 해석하였다. 월파와 관련된 많은 변수를 고려할 수 있을 뿐만 아니라 예측능력이 우수하다고 판단되는 경험식을 이용하여 신뢰함수가 유도되었다. 일반적으로 인정되는 범위내에서 설정된 확률변수의 통계적 특성과 분포함수를 이용하여 허용 월파량을 초과하는 파괴확률이 무차원 천단고의 함수로 산정되었다. 피복재의 종류와 구조물 전면의 경사에 따른 파괴확률의 차이도 해석되었다 또한 상치 콘크리트 전면에 거치된 피복재의 천단폭 변화에 대하여도 해석하였다. 마지막으로 각 확률변수의 불확실성에 따른 민감도 분석이 수행되었다. 월파와 관련된 제반 특성들이 잘 묘사되었을 뿐만 아니라 결정론적 설계법에서는 규명할 수 없는 허용 월파량을 초과하는 파괴확률들이 정량적으로 산정 되었다. 따라서 천단고를 결정할 때 확률적인 개념을 가미함으로서 설계의 효율성을 높일 수 있다.

Objective : The purpose of this study was to describe the clinical characteristics, treatment outcomes, and prognostic factors in patients with brain abscesses treated in a single institute during a recent 10-year period. Methods : Fifty-one patients with brain abscesses who underwent navigation-assisted abscess aspiration with antibiotic treatment were included in this study. Variable parameters were collected from the patients' medical records and radiological data. A comparison was made between patients with favorable [Glasgow Outcome Scale (GOS) ${\geq}4$] and unfavorable (GOS <4) outcomes at discharge. Additionally, we investigated the factors influencing the duration of antibiotic administration. Results : The study included 41 male and 10 female patients with a mean age of 53 years. At admission, 42 patients (82%) showed either clear or mildly disturbed consciousness (GCS ${\geq}13$) and 24 patients (47%) had predisposing factors. The offending microorganisms were identified in 25 patients (49%), and Streptococcus species were the most commonly isolated bacteria (27%). The mean duration of antibiotic administration was 42 days. At discharge, 41 patients had a favorable outcome and 10 had an unfavorable outcome including 8 deaths. The decreased level of consciousness (GCS <13) on admission was likely associated with an unfavorable outcome (p=0.052), and initial hyperglycemia (${\geq}140mg/dL$) was an independent risk factor for prolonged antibiotic therapy (p=0.032). Conclusion : We found that the level of consciousness at admission was associated with treatment outcomes in patients with brain abscesses. Furthermore, initial hyperglycemia was closely related to the long-term use of antibiotic agents.

최근 하수관거 매설과 하수종말처리장 등의 건설로 인해 도시하천의 수질이 크게 개선되고 있으나, 하 폐수 처리시설의 부족으로 하천으로 유입되는 다양한 오염물질은 수중생태계 교란과 적조를 발생시키고 있다. 울산 태화강의 하류부는 하폭이 크고 하상경사가 매우 완만한 감조하천으로써 갈 저수기에는 유속이 매우 느리게 된다. 게다가 약 1.2km 떨어져 있는 2개 교량의 전면기초로 된 교각보호공으로 인해 흐름이 정체되고 오염물질이 퇴적되어, 수년전부터 발생하고 있는 태화강 적조의 원인이 되거나 적조를 활성화 시키고 있다. 본 연구에서는 RMA2모형을 이용하여 두 교량의 교각을 독립기초로 개선하고 흐름을 소통시킬 수 있는 통수단면을 확보했을 때, 수리학적으로 개선될 수 있는 유속과 유량의 변화폭을 모의하였다. 그 결과 유속은 최대 약 103%, 유량은 최대 61% 증가하는 것으로 나타났다. 이는 적조를 직접 소멸시킬 수는 없으나 적조발생을 억제하거나 감소시킬 수 있으며, 오염물질의 퇴적을 막아 적조발생 원인을 근원적으로 제어할 수 있는 것으로 판단된다.

Influences of sustain pulse-width on electrical characteristics and luminous efficiency are experimentally investigated for surface discharge of AC-PDP. A square pulse with variable duty ratio and fixed rising time of 300 ns has been used in the experiment. It is found that the memory coefficient is significantly increased at the critical pulse-width. And the wall charges and wall voltages as well as capacitances are experimentally measured by Q- V analysis method along with the voltage margin relation, in terms of the sustain pulse-width in the range of $1{\mu}s$ to $5{\mu}s$ under driving frequency of 10 kHz to 180 kHz. And the luminous efficiency is also experimentally investigated in above range of sustain pulse-width with driving frequency of 10 kHz to 180 kHz. It is noted that the luminous efficiency for 10 kHz and 180 kHz are 1.29 1m/W and 0.68 1m/W respectively, since the power consumption for 10 kHz is much less than that for 180 kHz. It has been concluded that the optimal sustain pulse-width is in the range of $2.5 {\~}4.5{\mu}s$ under driving frequency range of 10 kHz and 60 kHz, and in the range of $1.5 {\~} 2.5{\mu}s$ under driving frequency range of 120 kHz and 180 kHz based on observation of memory coefficient, and wall voltage as well as luminous efficiency.

The major purpose of this study was to compare the state anxiety of surgical patients by sex (male/female), area of operation (sex-organ/non sex-organ), and family planning (having the plan of child-bearing/having no plan of child-bearing). One hundred sixty patients who were to get surgical operation were equally divided into eight groups resulted from combination of variables of sex, area of operation, and family planning, The state anxiety of surgical patients was measured in terms of the discrepancy score between the state anxiety score on the State-Trait Anxiety Inventory (STAI) administered at a day before operation and the trait anxiety score on it which was administered at a day before discharge. In order to test statistically the differences among meant scores of the state anxiety obtained by eight groups, multiple comparisons were carried out by Scheffe method. The results of this study led to the conclusions that, (1) there was no significant sex difference in the state anxiety of surgical patients, when the area of operation and the family planning variables were disregarded, (2) the state anxiety of patients who were to get operation of their sex-organ was significantly higher than that of patients who were to get operation on the parts other than their sex-organ, when variables of the sex and the family planning were not taken into account, (3) there was no significant sex difference in the state anxiety of patients who were to Bet operation on the parts other than their sex-organ, when the family planning variable was disregarded, (4) the state anxiety of female patients who were to get operation on their sex-organ was significantly higher than the stale anxiety of male patients who were to get operation on their sex-organ, when the family planning variable was not taken into account.
