우리나라는 강우량의 계절적 편기가 심하여 홍수기인 6월부터 9월까지의 년간 총강우량이 2/3을 차지하고 있으며 갈수기의 경우에는 강우량의 부족으로 물 부족현상을 겪고 있다. 이와 같은 현상은 최근 기후변화로 인해 더욱 증가되고 있으며 홍수기에도 국지적인 강우발생이 크게 증가하여 갈수기 가뭄이 더욱 심화되고 있다. 이와 같이 갈수시 가뭄에 대한 대책을 세우기 위해서는 하천에 유입되는 물과 하천 내에서 시간에 따라 유하되거나 조절되는 등 하천 자체 내에서 변화하는 하천유량의 변화 및 하천 외부로 유출되는 용수수요량을 정확히 분석하는 물수지분석이 필요하다. 이에, 본 연구에서는 송강천을 대상유역으로 선정하고 DEM을 통해 3개의 단위유역을 구분하였다. 단위유역별 생활용수, 공업용수, 농업용수 등에 대한 용수수요량 추정을 통해 유역별 용수수요 총량과 장래 수요증가량을 산정하였다. TANK 모형을 활용하여 단위유역별 기준갈수량을 산정하고 물수지분석을 통해 물 부족 여부를 판단하여 단위유역별 하천유지유량을 산정하였다. 분석결과, 단위유역별 하천으로 유입되는 회귀수량이 많아 목표연도별 갈수시 하천유지유량이 평균갈 수량 보다 크게 분석되었으며, 평균갈수시에도 하천의 정상적인 기능 및 상태를 유지하기 위한 최소한의 유량 확보가 가능할 것으로 판단된다.

현대인들의 바쁜 생활방식과 그로 인한 1인 가구 비율의 증가 등 사회적 요소로 인해 외로움을 겪으면서 우울증을 호소하는 사람이 증가하고 있고, 이에 따라 반려식물에 대한 관심과 시장이 증가하고 있다. 기존의 스마트 팜 시스템 관련 기술은 자동화 및 액추에이터 제어, 데이터 분석 및 예측 등 자동화와 정보 제공을 목적으로 사용되고 있다. 홈 가드닝을 통한 식물 키우기에 대한 관심 증가와 더불어 반려식물로 식물에 대한 교감을 제공하는 기능은 제공되지 않고 있다. 본 논문에서는 반려식물의 상태를 감정으로 전달하는 디지털 기반의 홈가드닝 앱을 제시한다. 제시하는 앱은 실제 스마트 팜 시스템과 실시간으로 연결되어 식물의 성장에 따라 변화하는 모습을 적합한 식물 캐릭터로 바꾸어 시각적으로 제공한다. 또한, 딥러닝 기술을 이용하여 식물의 성장 단계를 자동으로 분류하고, 식물의 생육 환경을 판단하여 캐럭터화된 식물의 표정을 제공한다. 제시하는 앱은 반려식물을 키우는 사람의 노동력을 줄여주고, 반려식물과의 교감을 제공하는 다양한 경험을 제시할 수 있다.

This study examined the effects of robot-assisted therapy on the motor and functional recovery of the lower limbs in 53 subacute stroke patients. Robot-assisted therapy was performed using Lokomat? (Hocoma AG, Zurich, Switzerland) for thirty minutes per day, five times a week for four weeks. The outcome measures used were the Fugl-Meyer assessment, Motricity index(MI), Functional ambulation category(FAC), Berg balance scale(BBS) for gait function and balance ability, 10m walking test, K-Modified Barthel Index(K-MBI) for the activities of daily living and Mini mental state examination (MMSE), and Beck's depression inventory(BDI) for depression. All patients recruited underwent these evaluations before and after the four week robot-assisted therapy. For the evaluation, the somatosensory evoked potentials were used to assess the functional recovery. Robot-assisted therapy on the lower limb after subacute stroke showed improvement in motor strength, gait function, and the activities of daily living. All changes in terms of MI, FAC, BBS, and K-MBI exhibited a statistically significant difference after the four weeks robot-assisted therapy. The somatosensory evoked potential result showed a correlation with the MI and K-MBI. Robot-assisted therapy is believed to facilitate the motor and functional recovery of the lower limb in subacute stroke patients.

The traumatic ventricular septal defect (VSD) is a rare but potentially life threatening complication of chest wall injury. The traumatic VSD occurs in up to 4.5% of penetrating cardiac trauma. Most of the patients are usually operated on because of heart failure and/or significant left-to-right shunt. The feasibility of surgical repair under cardiopulmonary bypass may be affected by coexisting pulmonary, cerebral or other vascular injuries. Transcatheter closure of VSD is being considered as an alternative therapeutic modality to surgery in order to avoid the potential risk of cardiopulmonary bypass. We report a patient who underwent a successful transcatheter closure of VSD with an $Amplatzer^{(R)}$ VSD occluder. The patient had a residual VSD with significant left-to-right shunt after surgical repair of post-traumatic VSD using cardiopulmonary bypass.

For fast recovery from physical discomfort and getting back to normal life, many rehabilitation treatments have been performed on patients. Computer games have been one of such treatments that are able to apply to patients effectively. However, because most of such games are locational-based, it is hard to figure out exact medical condition of patients that provide more information to medical doctors. This paper presents a rehabilitation game for patients, which is locational-based as well as rotational-based, who are having external wound or aging diseases by using electromyography signal and gyroscopic sensors. Through this game, we are able to understand how to lead the patients to involve in physical therapy more and how to obtain exact conditions of patients from the games. From several experiments, we found out that our games are able to make patients to increase their physical activity and possibility.

Piping systems are crucial facilities used in various industries, particularly in areas related to daily life and safety. Piping systems are fixed to the main structures of buildings and facilities but do not support external loads and serve as non-structural elements performing specific functions. Piping systems are affected by relative displacements owing to phase differences arising from different behaviors between two support points under seismic loads; this can cause damage owing to the displacement-dominant cyclic behavior. Fittings and joints in piping systems are representative elements that are vulnerable to seismic loads. To evaluate the seismic performance and limit states of fittings and joints in piping systems, a high-stroke actuator is required to simulate relative displacements. However, this is challenging because only few facilities can conduct these experiments. Therefore, element-level experiments are required to evaluate the seismic performance and limit states of piping systems connected by fittings and joints. This study proposed a method to evaluate the seismic performance of an elbow specimen that includes fittings and joints that are vulnerable to seismic loads in vertical piping systems. The elbow specimen was created by connecting straight pipes to both ends of a 90° pipe elbow using flexible groove joints. The seismic performance of the elbow specimen was evaluated using a cyclic loading protocol based on deformation angles. To determine the margin of the evaluated seismic performance, the limit states were assessed by applying cyclic loading with a constant amplitude.

This research involved 226 Jeonbuk Province school dietitians as subjects to investigate intake and perceptions of the healthy functional foods. Sixty nine percent of the school dietitians didn't even know about the law enforcement concerning the health functional foods. Although 68.1% of the respondents said that they slightly knew about health functional foods, only 25% knew exactly what it was. As shown in the survey, most didn't have the cognitive understanding did not understand which should be obtained by education. Sixty two percent of the answerers said they had experience of taking health various functional food products of various kinds such as supplements (57.9%), red ginseng products (52.9%), and chlorella products (30.0%). The motive of intake was in the order of fatigue restoration (25.7%), sickness prevention (22.9%), and nutrient replenishment (22.9%). A fascinating fact from this study was that the reason for healthy functional product intake was different between groups that was primarily interested in the products and those that was not. For those who had interest, the reason for intake was for sickness prevention. On the other hand, for those who didn't have any interest, the reasons was primarily for fatigue restoration and they were mostly persuaded by close friends and relatives. Main concerns were in the order of side effects (4.72), efficacy after intake (4.59), cleanliness (4.51), reliability of the company (4.29), and price (4.23). In view of the study, it is clear that a lot of people are showing interest in healthy functional food products. However, dietitians who are experts in food and nutrition lacked knowledge and information on healthy functional food.

하천법에서 하천유지유량은 "생활 공업 농업 환경개선 발전 주운 등의 하천수 사용을 고려하여 하천의 정상적인 기능 및 상태를 유지하기 위한 최소한의 유량"으로 정의 되어있고, "하천유지유량 산정요령"에 따라 갈수량을 기본으로 하여 하천의 수질보전, 하천 생태계 보호, 하천경관 보전 등 8가지 항목을 고려하여 산정하고 있다. 환경부에서는 2007년1월 환경부 고시에 '중권역별 수질 및 수생태계 목표기준과 달성기간"을 제정 고시하였고, 하천의 주요지점에 목표수질을 설정하고 그 수질을 만족시키기 위해 오염물질의 허용량을 제한하는 오염총량관리제도를 도입하였다. 이와 같이 하천 수질의 중요성이 대두되고 있으며, 하천의 기능을 제대로 유지하기 위해서는 수량뿐 아니라 적절한 수질이 요구 된다. 본 연구에서는 한국건설기술연구원과 SEI-US(Stockholm Environment Institute-U.S center)가 공동으로 개발한 통합수자원평가모형인 K-WEAPq 모형을 이용하여 만경강 유역의 네트워크를 구축하고 2003년의 수질 및 유량 자료를 이용하여 수량-수질을 모의하였다. 일별 수량-수질 동시모의를 통해 만경강 유역의 하수처리장 방류수 수질에 따른 하천 수질의 연중 변화를 파악하였고, 하수처리장 방류수의 수질을 변화시켜 수질모의 결과를 비교하였다. 분석결과 하수처리장 방류수의 수질에 따라 하천의 수질이 변화됨을 알 수 있고, 하수처리장 방류수 농도를 적절하게 조절하여 하천의 목표수질을 달성할 수 있음을 알 수 있다. 이 결과를 활용하면 하천의 수질 및 유량에 따라 하수처리장의 효율적인 운영이 가능하며 비용절감의 효과를 기대할 수 있을 것이다.

As IT technology advances, the need for robots in various areas has been recognized. Robots that focused on the industrial market have been extended to household robots in everyday life. In fact, cleaning robots and security robots have been developed and sold. Most home robots, in spite of high price, their functions are limited. In this paper, we propose the intelligent home robot which is based on smartphones and moving devices to provide various services and voice control.
