O-Y·PSM에 의한 CSR과 보행분석에 의한 RCOF와의 관계

Relationship between RCOF Calculated from the Results of Gait Analysis and CSR Measured Using O-Y·PSM

The purpose of this study was to present the necessary data concerning the selection and development of floor-coverings in view of slipperiness by comparing the relationship between CSR measured with O-Y·PSM and RCOF calculated from the result of gait analysis. CSR was calculated from maximum tensile load(Pmax) divided by perpendicular load(785N) when pulled 18 degrees upward the moment the bottom of the slip piece contacted the surface of the test piece. RCOF was calculated based on Fy/Fz from when horizontal load reached the maximum point within the sections from the moment the front of outsole touched the test piece to when pulled off the test piece. The results from the research were as follows: (1) Range of CSR was 0.15-1.02, which meant the differences of slipperiness of the test pieces definitely showed up. (2) RCOF are inadequate to express the characteristic about the slipperiness of the floors, since there were no differences between the test pieces.
