Multiple ligament knee injury is defined as rupture to at least two of the four major knee ligament structures. Three or four knee ligament injury results in knee dislocation as complete disruption of the integrity of the tibiofemoral articulation. In multiple ligament knee injury, vascular and neurologic assessment should be performed meticulously and systematically. Emergency surgery should be needed if arterial injury is suspected. Surgical treatment rather than conservative management should be done and early surgery might be better than delayed surgery. Reconstruction of ACL and PCL, repair or reconstruction of MCL, and reconstruction of posterolateral corner are recommended, although many debates have occurred. Multiple ligament knee injury requires more aggressive management than single ligament knee injury.

Recently, much attention has been focused on plant antioxidants, because they are expected to protect against oxidative damage, possibly preserving biological functions of cells. Antioxidant compounds were isolated from Angelica keiskei through extraction with 80% EtOH, and fractionations were carried out sequentially with n-hexane, chloroform, ethyl acetate, n-butanol, and water. Two active compounds were isolated from ethyl acetate fraction by silica gel column chromatography, and were identified as isoquercitrin ($quercetin-3-O-{\beta}-D-glucose$) and hyperoside ($quercetin-3-O-{\beta}-D-glucose$). Isoquercitrin and hyperoside showed strong antioxidative potency, as revealed by evaluation of their ABTS, DPPH, OH, and $H_{2}O_{2}$ radical-scavenging activities, and ex vivo DNA damage-protecting effects.

In this paper, a new regularization method by parameter subset selection method is proposed based on the residual force vector for damage localization. Although subset selection using the fundamental modal characteristics as a residual function has been successful in detecting a single damage location, this method seems to have limited capabilities in the detection of multiple damage locations and typically requires cumbersome weighting values. The method is presented herein and considers cases in which damage detection must be achieved using incomplete measurements of the structural responses. Model expansion is incorporated to deal with this challenge. The unique advantage of employing the new regularization method is that it can reliably identify multiple damage locations. Through an illustrative example, the proposed damage detection method is demonstrated to be a reliable tool for identifying multiple damage locations for a planar truss structure.

Recently, the consideration of eco-friendly technology to reduce greenhouse gas is being emphasized in the aviation field. Various studies for applying electro-mechanical actuators that control mechanical linear and rotational movements using electricity as the primary power source are in progress. In this study, the fatigue analysis of the electro-mechanical actuator for the front wheel steering of a single aisle aircraft was carried out. A unit load stress table was constructed for the vulnerable part selected through structural analysis, and the representative stress for each load profile was calculated using the unit load stress table constructed for the vulnerable part. Then, individual profiles of representative stress group were extracted from continuous load profiles by applying the rainflow counting method. The damage of each profile was calculated by applying the S-N diagram. Finally, the total damage in the vulnerable parts was calculated by the linear cumulative damage law, and the fatigue life of the electro-mechanical actuator for the front wheel steering of a single aisle aircraft was evaluated.

Purpose: This study was conducted in order to investigate the protective effects of ethanolic extract of Acanthopanax koreanum Nakai (AE) against carbon tetrachloride ($CCl_4$)-induced liver injury in rats. Methods: Male Sprague-Dawley rats were randomly divided into four groups in order to receive the following experimental diets with intraperitoneal injection of $CCl_4$ (2.0 mL/kg body weight, 20% solution 0.65 mL) for eight weeks (n = 8 per group): $CCl_4$ control (CON), $CCl_4$ + AE 1% (AE1), $CCl_4$ + AE 3% (AE3), or $CCl_4$ + acanthoic acid 0.037%, which is equivalent to AE 3% (AA). Results: Highest serum ALT activity and albumin level were observed in the $CCL_4$ control group, but showed a significant decrease by either AE or AA supplementation in a dose-dependent manner (p = 0.0063 and 0.0076, respectively). Both hemotoxylin and eosin staining and Masson's staining indicated remarkable prevention of $CCl_4$-induced liver damage in the AE3 group. $TNF{\alpha}$ and IL-6 production were significantly lowered in the AE treated groups, but not in the AA group (p = 0.0016 and p = 0.0002, respectively). The effects of AE3 were greater than those of AA for inflammation and liver toxicity biomarkers. Conclusion: Taken together, the results suggested that ethanolic extract of Acanthopanax koreanum Nakai provided hepatoprotective effects, leading to the reduction of inflammatory response. In addition, the effect of AE was superior to that of single compound AA.

Purpose: To evaluate and compare the postoperative knee stability and functional scores between single- and double- bundle anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) reconstruction at a minimum 2 years follow-up. Materials and Methods: 56 patients (group T) with ACL injury in one knee were recruited with 27 allocated to the double bundle ACL reconstruction group (group D) and 29 to the single bundle ACL reconstruction group (group S). Clinical outcomes including Lysholm knee scores, Tegner activity scores, Lachman and pivot shift test results, and radiographic stabilities were also compared between two groups. Results: Clinical outcomes including Lysholm knee and Tegner activity scores were similar in the two groups at 2 years follow-up. Furthermore, stability results of Lachman test, pivot shift test, and radiological findings failed to reveal any significant inter-group differences. Conclusion: Double bundle ACL reconstruction does not produce better in clinical outcomes and postoperative stabilities.

This Paper is concerned with the fracture behavoir of Unidirectional Laminate(UD) and the characteristic length of Multidirectional Laminate(MD) around hole under the Uniform Tensial Strain. Two fracture mechanical concepts of the Waddoups-Eisenman-Kaminski(WEK) model based on the Linear Elastic Fracture Mechanics(LEFM) and the Whitney-Nuismer Model based on Point and Average Stress Criteria were applied. The characteristic length of a laminate with a hole is then obtained using the coefficient of stress reduction and the experimental results, and it can be utilized in predicting the stress level at which the specimen will fracture. The results of the fracture characteristics and the strength of the specimens having a hole in the center can be used as the important experimental data in the research branch of the mechanical fastening of laminated structures. The Ultrasonic scanning and the Acoustic Emission(AE) method were utilized in order to find out the initial defects and the fracture behavior, respectively.

In this study a model-based diagnostic method using the Neural Network was proposed for PW206C turbo shaft engine and performance model was developed by SIMULINK. Fault and test database to build the NN was obtained at various off-design operating range such as flight altitude, flight Mach number and gas generator rotational speed variation. According to the fault detection analysis results, it was confirmed that the proposed fault detection method could find well the fault of compressor, compressor turbine and power turbine at on-design point as well as off-design point conditions.
