Purpose: We describe a new and simple technique for arthroscopic fixation of tibial intercondylar eminence avulsion fracture using bioabsorbable pins in skeletally immature patients. Operative Technique: Diagnostic knee arthroscopy is performed using anterolateral and anteromedial portals. Fracture debris and blood clot are debrided to expose the injured site well. The fragment is reduced with the probe and fixed temporarily with a 1.1-mm diameter K-wire that is inserted percutaneously from the anterosuperior aspect of the knee joint. The drill guide is introduced into the joint and the fragment is secured by bioabsorbable, poly-p-dioxanone 1.3-mm pins inserted from different angles. The pins are 40 mm in length. The knee is placed in a long leg cast in extension for 4 weeks to assure that full extension is obtained. Conclusion: Arthroscopic fixation of an tibial intercondylar eminence avulsion fracture using bioabsorbable pins is not a technically demanding, suitable method that ensures fracture healing and restores the stability of the joint.

허리는 등부터 엉덩이 사이의 잘록한 부분을 뜻하며 상체와 하체를 구분하는 기준이 되기도 한다. 본 논문에서는 허리의 Flexion과 Extension에 대해 다루도록 한다. Flexion은 몸통의 수직선을 축으로 앞으로 몸을 구부리는 덧을 말한다. 이때 구부리는 각은 70~80도의 움직임이 기준이다. 이보다 크거나 적고 고통을 동반하면 이상이 있는 것이다. Extension은 엉덩관절을 고정한 채 몸을 뒤로 구부리는 것이다. 이때 각도는 25~35도 정도이다. 이보다 크거나 적고 고통을 동한하면 이상이 있는 것이다. 실험을 통하여 50대 사람들의 Flexion과 Extension의 이상 여부를 알아보았다.

본 논문에서는 광학식 모션 캡쳐를 이용하여 얻은 한국인의 발레 동작에 대한 모션 캡쳐 데이터를 사용하여 다른 모션으로 변형함으로써 새로운 형태의 동작을 생성하거나 원래 데이터의 에러가 생긴 경우에 보정이 쉽게 수정 가능하도록 하였다. 즉, 모션 캡쳐 데이터의 구조는 다양한 포맷들로 되어 있는 스켈레톤 구조로서 관절의 각도나 위치에 대해 변형을 가하기 힘들다. 그러므로 모션 수정에 관련된 기술을 이용하여 선택된 조인트(joint), 엔드이펙터(end effecter), 마커(marker)들을 보여주고, 오일러(Euler Angles), 쿼터니언(Quaternions), 지수 맵(Exponential Map) 보간이 가능하여 실시간에서도 재생 되도록 구현하였다.

물리 시뮬레이션 기반의 캐릭터 동작 제어 문제를 강화학습을 이용하여 해결해 나가는 연구들이 계속해서 진행되고 있다. 이에 따라 이 문제를 강화학습을 이용하여 풀 때, 영향을 미치는 요소에 대한 연구도 계속해서 진행되고 있다. 우리는 지금까지 이뤄지지 않았던 상태 표현 방식에 따른 강화학습에 미치는 영향을 분석하였다. 첫째로, root attached frame, root aligned frame, projected aligned frame 3 가지 좌표계를 정의하였고, 이에 대해 표현된 상태를 이용하여 강화학습에 미치는 영향을 분석하였다. 둘째로, 동역학적 상태를 나타내는 캐릭터 관절의 위치, 각도에 따라 학습에 어떠한 영향을 미치는지 분석하였다.

In an attempt to investigate the effect of long-term aquatic exercise program on lower limbs' muscle strength, knee Joint flexion, pain reduction and weight changes with aquatic exercise program. Forty three women with arthritis were pre and post tested for changes of muscle strength, range of motion, weight and pain. This data was collected from April 1, 1997 to February 24, 1998. The mean age was 52.5. Statistically significant in lower limbs' muscle strength with an aquatic exercise program by age, BMI, education, rheumatic drug use, illness duration until 12 weeks after experiment. Statistically significant in knee joint flexion with aquatic exercise program by age, BMI, education, rheumatic drug use, illness duration until 12 weeks after experiment. Statistically significant in pain reduction with aquatic exercise program by age, BMI, education, rheumatic drug use, illness duration until 12 weeks after experiment. Statistically significant in weight changes with aquatic exercise program by age, BMI, education, rheumatic drug use, illness duration until 6 weeks after experiment. As a conclusion, aquatic exercise programs for the patients with arthritis require at least 12 weeks and a variety of aquatic exercise programs for the effective control should be developed.

This paper presents a study on transformable multiple quadruped robots by docking between robots and waist joints. This robot is able to go on a variety of angles because of mecanum wheels. It is also a hybrid design which allows robot use legs to overcome obstacles on complex terrains and wheels to move on flat ground. The robot is applied kinematics of mecanum wheels and walking, and its walking is based on specific patterns. Docking module is located in front and backside of robot, docking algorithm is suggested and fulfilled for docking between 2 robots. A waist joint is at the center of robot body for transformation and after docking and transformation, robot can activate new functions that carry something.

The present study determined the normal reference ranges for overall pelvic limb alignment of small-breed dogs. For this purpose, 60 cadaveric canine pelvic limbs from normal small-breed dogs (Maltese, Poodle, Shih Tzu, Yorkshire Terrier). A frontal full-limb radiograph of each pelvic limb was obtained, and mechanical tibiofemoral angle (mTFA), mechanical metatarsotibial angle (mMTTA), mechanical axis-femur angle (MAFA), and mechanical axis-metatarsus angle (MAMTA) were measured from each radiograph, along with mechanical deviation of the stifle (SMAD) and tarsal joints (TMAD). The 95% CI for radiographic values of all pelvic limbs were mTFA, 5.7-7.4; mMTTA, $-2.2--0.8^{\circ}$; MAFA, $3.5-4.5^{\circ}$; MAMTA, 1.0-2.0; SMAD, 2.1-2.7%; TMAD, 0.5-1.0%. There values varied among the breeds, except for mTFA. The reference ranges can be used for diagnosing pelvic limb deformities in small-breed dogs and for planning corrective osteotomies.

Purpose: The biomechanics and kinematics of knee joint were reviewed in this article. And then the common sports injuries were presented. Anatomy and Kinetics: None of the pairs of bearing surfaces in the knee joint is exactly congruent This allows the knee six degrees of freedom of motion. Tibiofemoral Kinematics: In flexion and extension, the axis of motion is not perpendicular to the medial-lateral plane of the joint, nor is it perpendicular to the axis of longitudinal rotation. This results in coupled varus angulation and internal rotation with flexion and in valgus angulation and external rotation with extension. Patellofemoral Articulation: Loads across the patellofemoral joint are indirectly related to the angle of knee flexion and directly related to the force generated within the quadriceps mechanism. Fractures of the Patella: Nonoperative treatment is indicated if the extensor mechanism is intact and if displacement of fragment is minimal. The specific type of internal fixation depends on the fracture pattern. It is important to repair retinaculum. Acute and Recurrent Patellar Instability: The degree of dysplasia and the extent of the instability play a large part in determining the success of nonoperative treatment. Patients who experience recurrent dislocations and patients with major anatomic variations require surgery to minimize their instability. Sports Injuries in School-age Atheletes: Patellar pain in young athletes groups a number of conditions, including Idiopathic Adolescent Anterior Knee Pain, Osgood- Schlatter Disease, and Sinding-Larsen-Johansson Disease.
