The purposes of this study are to assess the diet and nutritional states of elementary and middle school students in the Daegu area by using nutrition quotient (NQ) for children. A survey was conducted with 366 elementary school students and 364 middle school students. Elementary school students showed higher total NQ scores (66.2) than middle school students (58.3), without gender difference. Elementary school students showed higher NQ scores in all 5 domains (balance, diversity, abstinence, regularity, practice) than middle school students. As for gender difference, boys showed higher scores than girls in balance and diversity, and girls showed higher scores in abstinence than boys. When scores of 5 domains were evaluated as good or bad, the percentage of good was highest in abstinence (63.4%) and lowest in diversity (22.9%). The percentage distribution of NQ of 1st (excellent) to 5th (bad) grades were 8.4%, 13.6%, 44.5%, 19.3%, 14.2%, respectively. In the 1st grade, there were 9.5%p more elementary school students, and in the 5th grade, there were 11.6%p more middle school students. No gender differences were found in the distribution of the NQ grades. Since NQ for children presents a convenient method of evaluating the diet and nutritional states of many subjects simply and simultaneously, a follow-up study will hopefully revise and supplement the question items and standards of judgement by the age groups.

The purpose of this study was to investigate the effect of aquatic gait training on plantar foot pressure, foot kinesiology and gait speed in right hemiplegic patients. The subject were 20 stroke patients who elapsed from 12 month to 24 month after stroke(aquatic gait training group(n=10), land gait training group(n=10)). This study measured plantar foot pressure, toe out angle, subtalar joint angle, gait speed from data of gate on 2m long measuring apparatus for RS-scan system(RS scan Ltd. German). This experiment performed in twice, before and after the aquatic gait training and land gait training. Collected data were statistically analyzed by SPSS Ver. 12.0 using descriptive statistics, paired t-test. Aquatic gait training group had more variety pressure area on their foot such as T1(Toe 1), HM(Heel medial), and HL(Heel lateral). But motion of subtalar joint flexibility and toe out angle decreased considerably and gate speed also increased. According to the result, aquatic gait training is considered as more effective way in foot stability and normal gait pattern than land gait training.

A three-dimensional time-domain calculation method is of crucial importance in prediction of the motions and wave loads of a ship advancing in a severe irregular sea. The exact solution of the free surface wave-ship interaction problem is very complicated because of the essentially nonlinear boundary conditions. In this paper, an approximate body nonlinear approach based on the three-dimensional time-domain forward-speed free-surface Green function has been presented. The Froude-Krylov force and the hydrostatic restoring force are calculated over the instantaneous wetted surface of the ship while the forces due to the radiation and scattering potentials over the mean wetted surface. The time-domain radiation and scattering potentials have been obtained from a time invariant kernel of integral equations for the potentials which are discretized according to the second-order boundary element method (Hong and Hong 2008). The diffraction impulse-response functions of the Wigley seakeeping model advancing in transient head waves at various Froude numbers have been presented. A simulation of coupled heave-pitch motion of a long rectangular barge advancing in regular head waves of large amplitude has been carried out. Comparisons between the linear and the approximate body nonlinear numerical results of motions and wave loads of the barge at a nonzero Froude number have been made.

A simple but efficient grid generation technique by using the modified compressible form of stream function has been formulated. Transformation of a physical plane to a streamline plane, the Von Mises Transformation, has been widely used to solve the differential equations governing flow phenomena, however, limitation arises in low velocity region of boundary layer, mixing layer and wake region where the relatively large grid spacing is inevitable. Modified Von Mises Transformation with simple mathematical adjustment for the stream function is suggested and applied to solve the confined coaxial turbulent jet mixing with simple $\kappa-\epsilon$ turbulence model. Comparison with several experimental data of axial mean velocity, turbulent kinetic energy, and Reynolds shear stress distribution shows quite good agreement in the mixing layer except in the centerline where the turbulent kinetic energy distributions were somewhat under estimated. This formulation is strongly suggested to be utilized specially for free turbulent mixing layers in axisymmetric flow conditions such as the investigation of mixing behavior, jet noise production and reduction for Turbofan engines.

Purpose: To evaluate the differences of functional imaging patterns between conventional spoiled gradient echo (SPGR) and echo planar imaging (EPI) methods in cerebral motor cortex activation. Materials and Methods: Functional MR imaging of cerebral motor cortex activation was examined on a 1.5T MR unit with SPGR (TRfrE/flip angle=50ms/4Oms/$30^{\circ}$, FOV=300mm, matrix $size=256{\times}256$, slice thickness=5mm) and an interleaved single shot gradient echo EPI (TRfrE/flip angle = 3000ms/40ms/$90^{\circ}$, FOV=300mm, matrix $size=128{\times}128$, slice thickness=5mm) techniques in five male healthy volunteers. A total of 160 images in one slice and 960 images in 6 slices were obtained with SPGR and EPI, respectively. A right finger movement was accomplished with a paradigm of an 8 activation/ 8 rest periods. The cross-correlation was used for a statistical mapping algorithm. We evaluated any differences of the time series and the signal intensity changes between the rest and activation periods obtained with two techniques. Also, the locations and areas of the activation sites were compared between two techniques. Results: The activation sites in the motor cortex were accurately localized with both methods. In the signal intensity changes between the rest and activation periods at the activation regions, no significant differences were found between EPI and SPGR. Signal to noise ratio (SNR) of the time series data was higher in EPI than in SPGR by two folds. Also, larger pixels were distributed over small p-values at the activation sites in EPI. Conclusions: Good quality functional MR imaging of the cerebral motor cortex activation could be obtained with both SPGR and EPI. However, EPI is preferable because it provides more precise information on hemodynamics related to neural activities than SPGR due to high sensitivity.

본 논문의 수치해법은 경계치문제를 풀기 위하여 코시이론(Cauchy's theorem)을 사용하였다. 경계치문제는 완전한 물체표면조건과 자유표면조건을 만족시키는 초기치문제로 귀결된다. 현 수치해법에서 무한영역은 수치계산 영역인 비선형 영역과 선형 자유표면조건을 만족하는 선형영역으로 나누어진다. 선형영역의 해는 과도 그린(Green)함수를 사용하여 정합조건을 부과함으로써, 수치계산은 비선형 영역에서만 수행된다. 본 논문에서 저자는 수치계산 영역에서 코시이론을 사용하여 적분방정식을 도출하였고, 무한영역의 해는 정합면에서 과도 그린함수를 사용하여 표현하였다. 본 수치계산에서 자유표면에 요소 재분배법을 적용함으로써 쇄파현상에 대해서도 안정적인 수치해석을 할 수 있었다. 본 논문에서 개발된 수치방법을 적용한 문제는 다음과 같다. 첫째는 자유표면에서 실린더가 강제동요하는 경우에 자유표면형상과 힘을 계산하여 이전의 실험치 및 계산치와 비교하였다. 두번째로는 실린더가 자유수면하에서 일정한 속도로 항주하는 경우에는 조파저항과 양력을 계산하여 고차 스펙트럴법과 비교하였다.

Flow mechanism of peristaltic motion is numerically and experimentally investigated to obtain a propulsive force in highly viscous fluid. Computing code for the analysis of the motions is developed with cell-centered unstructured grid scheme. The computed results by the developed code is compared with the experimental results which have been carried out to find out the propulsion mechanism in highly viscous fluid. The computed results shows good correlation with the experimental results and further the propulsive force can be obtained by sinusoidal motion which makes a pressure difference on waving surface. The more computation with variation of Reynolds number and parameters of motion is expected for finding a proper working range.

스펙트럼선의 선폭증대 현상을 방출영역 내 기체입자들이 열운동에 의한 단순 도플러 효과로 가정하여 중심에서 어느 한쪽으로 심하게 치우친 스펙트럼 선윤곽를 해석한다. 본 연구에서는 태양활동영역에서 흔히 관측되는 좌우 비대칭의 선윤곽을 서로 다른 가우스속도분포의 기체성분들이 시선방향으로 중첩된 결과라 해석하고, 최소자승법을 이용한 비선형 선윤곽 맞춤질에 의해 스펙트럼 방출영역에서 떨어져 나가는 기채들의 온도 및 분출속도에 관련된 도플러선폭과 도플러이동량을 구하였다.

지금까지 뇌와 관련된 언어, 감정, 시각, 촉각 등 의학적 영역에서 뇌에 관한 연구들이 활발히 이루어져 왔다. 그러나 이러한 의학적, 심리학적 성과와 IT와의 융합 및 응용은 아직 초보적인 단계이다. 따라서 의학적으로 입증된 뇌 영역에서 발생하는 뇌파에 대해 보다 세밀한 분석 및 연구를 통해 실질적인 응용 가능한 BCI를 구현해보고자 한다.
