Recently, the study of energy saving technology of ships begins in earnest, as energy saving policies are performed all around the world. SEMS (Ship Energy Management System) is one of the techniques to increase energy efficiency by applying to a independent system like a ship and offshore. SEMS is composed of Cooling Pump Control System (CPCS), Renewable Energy Emergency Power Control System (REEPCS), Load Control System (LCS), and Heating, Ventilation, and Air Conditioning System (HVACS). SEMS is enable to increase energy efficiency and achieve integrated management through the interlocking of each system. Especially, it is possible to improve the flexibility of the selection of the generator capacity in conjunction with a rechargeable battery and renewable energy. In this paper, SEMS applied rechargeable battery is proposed and simulated. By applying the rechargeable battery, it was confirmed that SEMS applied rechargeable battery can be operated at optimum efficiency of the generator.

Self-expandable metal stent (SEMS) is effective for biliary drainage, especially in pancreaticobiliary cancer. The mechanical properties, material, and design of SEMS are important in preventing recurrent biliary obstruction and complication. Radial and chronic expansion forces play roles in preventing stent migration and collapse. Complications, such as stent impaction, cholecystitis, and pancreatitis, were related to the axial force. The nickel-titanium alloy shows more flexibility, conformability, and optimal axial force compared to previously used stainless steel. Additionally, the stent structure affected the mechanical properties of SEMS. Therefore, understanding the mechanical properties, material, and design of SEMS will provide the best outcome for biliary drainage, as well as better SEMS development.

An 18-year-old woman was evaluated for a chronic productive cough and dyspnea. She was subsequently diagnosed with mediastinal non-Hodgkin lymphoma (NHL). A covered self-expandable metallic stent (SEMS) was implanted to relieve narrowing in for both main bronchi. The NHL went into complete remission after six chemotherapy cycles, but atelectasis developed in the left lower lobe 18 months after SEMS insertion. The left main bronchus was completely occluded by granulation tissue. However, the right main bronchus and intermedius bronchus were patent. Granulation tissue was observed adjacent to the SEMS. The granulation tissue and the SEMS were excised, and a silicone stent was successfully implanted using a rigid bronchoscope. SEMS is advantageous owing to its easy implantation, but there are considerable potential complications such as severe reactive granulation, stent rupture, and ventilation failure in serious cases. Therefore, SEMS should be avoided whenever possible in patients with benign airway disease. This case highlights that SEMS implantation should be avoided even in malignant airway obstruction cases if the underlying malignancy is curable.

In case of rolling stock, SEMS is generally applied in the advanced countries, but is start stage in our country. SEMS is defined the system engineering management system in order to achieve the optimized train performance among the several client requirements aspect of technical engineering management during the design life cycle. And the fire engineering activities in hong kong EMU project are introduced aspect of SEMS in this paper. The fire engineering at rolling stock in view of SEMS controls to apply the satisfied interior material by the fire safety standards (regulation of the commute urban subway safety guideline by the MOCT, BS 6853, NFPA 130, NF F 16-101) and to minimize the fire load in order that passengers egress safe from the fired rolling stock. The rolling stock in the advanced countries is designed to stand for 15-20 minutes in considering the rolling stock to be fired in tunnel. For passenger fire safety, the passenger evacuation provision and progress is set up.

Since the insertion of self expandable metalic stent[SEMS has became popular method for hollow organ stenosis, many attempts for further apply the stent to airway stenosis as an simple procedure has been made, but intrabronchial migration of stent or occurrence of inflammatory granuloma around stent develop occasionally and sometimes it worsen bronchial stenosis further more. This report describes 2 case of surgically treated bronchial restenosis in whom intrabronchial stent were applied for release of bronchial stenosis. Our surgical option was pneumonectomy and bronchoplasty with sleeve right middle and upper lobectomy respectively. During the operation we found the SEMSs were tightly impacted in restenotic bronchial lumen with overgrowth of granulation tissues. The bronchial obstructions occupied more than 90% of lumens in both cases, and needed much complicated procedure to be relieved. Therefore, even though the insertion of SEMS remains as a prcedure determined by the physician`s preference, it has to be considered prudently that the use of SEMS can cause severe restenosis and the surgeon has more difficulties in performing segmental resection of restenotic bronchus in patient with SEMS previously inserted. Throughout these experiences we can conclude that the insertion of SEMS must be performed only in very selected cases of bronchial stenosis.

During the last two years, Site Information and Total Environmental database management System (SITES) ver. 1.0 has been developed for the systematic SITES Database Module (SDM), which includes site information, facility information and environmental information. The SITES includes the module for site environmental monitoring system and safety assessment (M&A) system for the nuclear facility. SITES is expected to be an effective system for the radioactive waste disposal management facility. Currently, SITES ver.2.0 is under development after the SITES ver.1.0 that is focused on the M&A system. The main purpose of this paper is to introduce and try to account for the major development in the concept of SEMS sub-module of the M&A module. The SEMS is purposed of development of the program for real time environmental monitoring, prediction, and automatic alarm system using SITES Database and related information.

Malignant colorectal obstructions urgently require decompression therapy to prevent the severe risks of intestinal ischemia and bowel perforation. In managing malignant colonic strictures endoscopically, the use of self-expandable metal stents (SEMS) is the predominant approach. Colonic SEMs are primarily used in preoperative decompression therapy before curative surgery and palliative treatment in patients with advanced disease stages. Furthermore, the stenting process, which requires rigorous clinical supervision, can lead to complications. This review endeavors to concisely review the clinical considerations associated with the SEMS procedure, with a focus on its indications, technical aspects, and potential complications that may arise during the procedure.

As the development of total management systems for sites along with site environmental information is becoming standard, the system known as the Site Information and Total Environmental database management System (SITES) has been developed over the last two years. The first result was a database management system for storing data obtained from facilities, and a site characterization in addition to an environmental assessment of a site. The SITES database is designed to be effective and practical for use with facility management and safety assessment in relation to Geographic Information Systems. SITES is a total management program, which includes its database, its data analysis system required for site characterization, a safety assessment modeling system and an environment monitoring system. It can contribute to the institutional management of the facility and to its safety reassessment. SITES is composed of two main modules: the SITES Database module (SDM) and the Monitoring & Assessment (M&A) module [1]. The M&A module is subdivided into two sub-modules: the Safety Assessment System (SAS) and the Site Environmental Monitoring System (SEMS). SAS controls the data (input and output) from the SITES DB for the site safety assessment, whereas SEMS controls the data obtained from the records of the measuring sensors and facilities. The on-line site and environmental monitoring data is managed in SEMS. The present paper introduces the procedure and function of the M&A modules.
