The aim of this study was to examine the effect of a brisk walking intervention for 8weeks on isokinetic muscular function factor(strength, power, endurance). The following results were found from the current study: First, Isokinetic muscle function(strength, power, endurance) on $60^{\circ}/sec$ in extension and flexion was significant exercise group and interaction in left knee flexion and right knee extension(P<.00l). Secondly, Isokinetic muscle function(strength, power, endurance) on $120^{\circ}/sec$ in extension and flexion was significant exercise group and interaction in left knee flexion and right knee extension(P<.001). Thirdly, Isokinetic muscle function(strength, power, endurance) on $180^{\circ}/sec$ in extension and flexion was significant exercise group and interaction in left knee flexion and right knee extension(P<.001). Considering the above result of the study the brisk walking had more improvement knee flexor and extensor muscular power. Therefore the brisk walking in the study can be proposed as effective plan to prevention hurt from a sarcopenia and to raise quality in life.

True motion estimation is necessary for deinterlacing, frame-rate conversion, and film judder compensation. There have been several block-based approaches to find true motion vectors by tracing minimum sum-of-absolute-difference (SAD) values by considering spatial and temporal consistency. However, the algorithms cannot find robust motion vectors when the texture of objects is changed. To find the robust motion vectors in the region, a recursive vector selection scheme and an adaptive weighting parameter are proposed. Previous frame vectors are recursively averaged to be utilized for motion error region. The weighting parameter controls fidelity to input vectors and the recursively averaged ones, where the input vectors come from the conventional estimators. If the input vectors are not reliable, then the mean vectors of the previous frame are used for temporal consistency. Experimental results show more robust motion vectors than those of the conventional methods in time-varying texture objects.

The purpose of this study was to investigate the effect of Isotonic Training and Isotonic isometric complex Training to Knee joint Isokinetic muscle function in the high-school Taekwondo athlete. This subjects were randomly divided into two groups; a Isotonic Training group (n=7) Isotonic isometric complex Training group (n=7), Taekwondo athletes share each, 12 weeks between executes a motion. peak torque, H/Q ratio, bilateral muscular ratio muscular endurance of knee joint measured. For this study, two-way ANOVA with repeated measure were used. The result of this study presents between groups was not plain difference expressed. H/Q ratio, bilateral muscular ratio, muscular endurance was plain difference expressed after 12 weeks point of time (p>0.05) and peak torque was plain difference expressed (p<0.05). Conclusion each group did not appear all but one (peak torque), but point of view exercise was effect H/Q ratio, bilateral muscular ratio, muscular endurance, peak torque plain difference expressed.

This study was performed to provide data for developing a more effective and practical pilates exercise program for young women. To meet this purpose, 20 young women were assigned to both groups. The experiment was conducted according to the experimental procedure. Ten subjects in the pilates exercise group performed exercise for 60 minutes everyday at a frequency of 3 days per week for 8 weeks. The subjects in both groups were measured for their physical composition, isokinetic muscular strength in legs, and body balance before and after the experiment. After 8 weeks, the pilates exercise group's body composition showed significantly increased muscular amount (p <.01). There was a statistical increase in knee joint muscle function. For the right knee joint and left knee joint, right knee joint extensor muscle's maximum muscular strength and total work significantly increased under conditions of $60^{\circ}/sec$ (p<.05). Under conditions of $180^{\circ}/sec$, there were statistically significant increases in left knee joint flexor muscle's maximum muscular strength (p<.05). For balance, balance of both legs and right leg showed statistically increases (p<.05).

This study investigated the effect of a 12-week rehabilitation program on the range of motion (ROM) and muscle strength of high school baseball players with shoulder instability. We allocated 12 players with shoulder instability to the rehabilitation group and 13 players without shoulder instability to the normal exercise group. Covariate analysis (ANCOVA) was performed to assess the ROM of the internal (IR) and external (ER) rotational joints before and after participating in the 12 weeks of rehabilitation, and two-way ANOVA was performed to assess isokinetic muscle strength. The statistical significance level was set at p<.05. The IR ROM of the dominant (D) shoulder with instability and non-dominant (ND) shoulder was significantly increased before and after the rehabilitation program. The total ROM of the D shoulder with instability significantly increased after rehabilitation. IR isokinetic strength significantly improved at an angular velocity of 180°/s after rehabilitation. These results indicate that the rehabilitation program used in this study could be effective in improving ROM and muscle strength in patients with shoulder instability. However, due to the limited results, additional research on the premise of extending the rehabilitation period is necessary.

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the possibility of identifying joint damping property through commercially available isokinetic ergometer (BIODEX). The proposed method is to estimate the damping torque of the knee joint from the difference between the external joint torque for maintaining isokinetic movement and the gravity torque of the lower leg. The damping torque was estimated at various joint angular velocities, from which the damping property would be derived. Measurement setup was composed of the BIODEX system with an external force sensor and Labview system. Matlab was used in the analysis of the damping property. The experimental result showed that the small variation in angular velocity due to acceleration and deceleration of the crank arm resulted in greater change of inertial torque than the damping torque, so that the estimation of damping property from the isokinetic movement is difficult.

Recently, swash plate type hydraulic axial piston motors/pumps are being extensively used in the world, because of simple design, light weight and effective cost. Structural problem of the swash plate type motor/pump is that tilting angle of swash plate should be limited to relatively small value and lateral farce on pistons has an undesirable effect in reciprocating motion. To solve these problems, piston rod mechanism, which is commonly used in bent axis type motor/pump, is considered to be applied to the swash plate type motor/pump. In this paper, kinematic analysis was done on the piston rod mechanism. A series of formula were derived and numerical calculations were done for a set of motor parameters.

Purpose: To investigate the effects of an 8 weeks of plyometric training on the total work of knee and ankles Joint. Methods: Nine university man aged 20$\~$22 years was divided in 2 group. Exercisers (N=5) performing plyometrics (pike jump, double leg hop, double leg bound, single leg hop, stride jump cross over, alternate leg bound, box jump) for 8 weeks. Controls (N=4) maintained their usual activities. The total work of knee and ankle joint were tested prior to and after the training. Results: Plyometric training resulted in significantly greater in the total work of high speed of knee and ankle motion(p<0.05). Conclusions: The plyometric training were partially improved the total work of flexion and extension on the ankle joint. Also plyometric training could influence athletic performance.

Multi-target tracking system is defined as tracking several targets simultaneously. Kalman filter is widely used for target tracking problems. Kalman filter is known to be extremely useful as an optimal estimator but has a shortcoming of computational complexity. So a simplified estimator model which had less computational burden is proposed for a real-time implementation of multi-target tracking systems. In this paper, Kalman filter is applied to implement a real-time tracking system with a simplified target model. The proposed Kalman filter model is simpler compared with those of conventional ones, greatly reducing computation time, yet keeping the tracking abilities of the optimal Kalman filter. Through both simulations and experiments with real environments, it is demonstrated that the proposed simplified model works good in real situation with multiple to be tracked.
