The purpose of this study was to analyze the structure of neurophysiological healing in Cho Ji-Hoon's poem "Line" and to use it in literature therapy program. Research shows that action potentials in the human body represent the mind. In other words, the electric charges appear to be the signs of the mind, and the action potentials of all the charges of the human body are integrated together to systematize the mind. Cho Ji-Hoon's poem "Line" resembles the process of collecting, analyzing, synthesizing and reproducing information, which is the function of the human neurophysiological synapse. This is a useful form of poetry in terms of its application to literary therapy programs. If we develop such a form of literary therapy program as Cho Ji-Hoon's poem, it will be more effective in healing process.

Recently, there is increasing demand for image processing technology while activated the use of equipments such as camera, camcorder and CCTV. In particular, research and development related to 3D image technology using the depth camera such as Kinect sensor has been more activated. Kinect sensor is a high-performance camera that can acquire a 3D human skeleton structure via a RGB, skeleton and depth image in real-time frame-by-frame. In this paper, we develop a system. This system captures the motion of a 3D human skeleton structure using the Kinect sensor. And this system can be stored by selecting the motion file format as trc and bvh that is used for general purposes. The system also has a function that converts TRC motion captured format file into BVH format. Finally, this paper confirms visually through the motion capture data viewer that motion data captured using the Kinect sensor is captured correctly.

The purpose of this study was to analyze the variables of plantar pressure distribution, the COG between Flying Sit Spin(FSS) and Flying Camel Spin(FCS) during a Figure Skating. In order to investigate the two types of spin mechanism in the Korea national of elite women Figure skaters(N=4), this study investigated the phase time, CA(contact area), MF(maximum force) Mean Force, and PP(peak pressure) Mean Force. The data was collected using PEDAR Mobile System which is the pressure distribution measuring devices. The obtained conclusions were as follow: During the two types of spins(FSS and FCS), the FCS is higher than the FSS on the MF(20%BW), PP(20%BW) variables during P4 phase, but the FSS is larger than the FCS in the CA, MF, and PP during P1, P2, P3 phase. Consequently, depend on the COP and the COG locations about the vertical ground reaction vector, the FCS comparatively excelled control of speed feedback than the FSS in the P4 phase.

Skin is the soft outer covering of vertebrates. In mammals, the skin is the largest organ of the integumentary system made up of multiple layers of ectodermal tissue, and guards the underlying muscles, bones, ligaments and internal organs. There is a difference of the physiological function and anatomical structure of the skin, as body parts, sex, age, race and nutritional status. In this study, we measured the moisturizing ability of the skin of the 20s Chinese and Korea in Korean. We found that the skin hydrating of Chinese is significantly higher than Korean and TEWL of Chinese is lower than Korean. We measured the moisturizing ability of both 20s Chinese and Korean. As result, the moisturizing ability of 20s Chinese is better than Korean.

본 논문에서는 인체의 머리 부분을 촬영한 의료 영상에서 뇌 영역만을 분할하는 방법에 대해 제시하고자 한다. 뇌의 해부학적 구조 및 기능적 이상 부위를 파악할 경우에 영상 내에 함께 보여지는 두개골과 뇌척수액 등을 제외한 대뇌피질 영역을 분할하면 보다 효과적인 정보 분석 및 진단이 가능하게 된다. 본 시스템에서는 3단계 알고리즘을 제시한다. 첫 번째 단계에서는 영상 내에 존재하는 잡음을 제거하기 위한 필터링이고, 두 번째 단계에서는 필터링된 결과에 대한 영상분할을 수행하는 것이다 이 때 정확한 결과 도출을 위하여 사용자의 인터렉션이 들어가게 된다. 세번째 단계에서는 형태학적 방법을 이용하여 분할 결과를 보완한다. 본 연구를 위한 실험에는 자기 공명 촬영 영상(MRI: Magnetic Resonance Imaging), 단일 광전자 방출 단층 촬영영상(SPECT: Single Photon Emission Computed Tomography), 양전자 방출 단층 촬영영상(PET: Positron Emission Tomography) 등을 사용하였다. 본 시스템에서는 다양한 모달리티의 뇌 영상에서 대뇌피질 부분을 정확하게 영상 분할함으로써 뇌의 구조적 이상을 판단하기 위한 해부학적 정보 분석을 가능케 하고 있다. 뿐만 아니라 뇌 질환에 대한 정확한 진단 시뮬레이션도 가능하게 하고자 한다.

접지시스템은 전력설비에 대하여 인체의 안전을 확보함과 동시에 기기 및 장치의 절연 파괴를 방지하고 통신 잡음을 제거하여 정보 전송의 양질화를 이루는 기능성 향상을 위한 시스템으로, 사고 발생시 대지를 통하여 고장 전류를 신속하게 방전함으로서 기준전위를 유지하는 것을 목적으로 하고 있다. 이러한 접지시스템의 계획과 시공에 있어서 도심지에서의 충분한 접지공사 부지를 확보하는 것은 현실적인 어려움이 있으므로, 건축물 기초 구조물을 접지극으로 활용하여 접지시스템의 효과를 증대 할 수 있는 방안을 제시하고자 한다.

The development of ubiquitous healthcare technology and portable electronic devices requires new energy sources for providing continuous power supply. This study particularly focuses on an energy harvesting system capable of charging energy using clothing. One of the sources for energy harvesting is heat energy, which is the difference in temperature of the body and the surrounding environment. In this study, the skin temperature distribution of the human body was empirically measured to determine the basic materials needed to develop heat energy harvesting clothing. The distribution of skin temperature in different sections of the human body was analyzed. The analysis found that the skin temperature of the upper body was higher than that of the lower body. The area close to the heart with a lot of blood flow was especially high. The skin temperature of the back side of the body, such as the back of the neck, upper back, and waist, was higher than that of the front side of the body. As for the arms, the skin temperature of the upper arms was higher than that of the lower arms, and the skin temperature of the back side of the arms was lower than that of the front and the flank side of the arms. The difference in the average skin temperature and the environment temperature was highest at the back of the neck, and thereby is considered to be the most appropriate section to integrate the heat energy harvesting function and structure. The following sections had the next highest difference in values, listed in descending order: the back of the waist, the sides of shoulders, the front chest area, the front side of the upper arms, and the front abdomen. Based on the skin temperatures of the different sections of the human body, this study outlines the basic guidelines for developing heat energy harvesting clothing.

The characteristics of pressure loss in an asymmetric bifurcating tube were investigated numerically for steady inspiratory conditions. The loss coefficient K calculated for various asymmetry and flow-distribution ratios found in human lung airways showed a power-law dependence on the Reynolds number (Re) and length-to-diameter ratio (L/d), with different exponents for Re $\geq$ 100 and Re < 100. The fundamental characteristics of the asymmetric bifurcation are similar to the case of symmetric bifurcation. In addition, the effect of skewed inlet velocity profiles on the pressure loss was weak, and decreased with an increasing number of bifurcations.

General information is summarized, that is necessary to introduce a scientific assessment of the human health and exposure issue concerning dioxin and dioxin-like compound. Scientific literatures were reviewed to assess the background exposures to the dioxin-like compounds for normal residents. Epidemiologic studies were also reviewed to assess malignant and nonmalignant sweets of dioxins. In 1997, the International Agency for Research on Cancer classified 2,3,7,8-tetrachlorodibenzo-p-dioxin (TCDD) as a human carcinogen, primarily based on occupational cohort studies. The US Environmental Protection Agency made the same decision in it's Draft Dioxin Reassessment. Epidemiologic evidences point to a generalized excess of all cancers, without any pronounced excess at specific sites. Reported non-cancer effects included a range of conditions affecting most systems. Among them, chloracne, elevation in gamma glutamyl transferase(GGT), and alterations in reproductive hormones are related to TCDO, Other adverse outcomes, such as lipid concentrations, diabetes, circulatory and heart diseases, immunologic disorders, neurobehavioral effects, and developmental outcomes require further study before their respective relationships to TCDD can be more definitively assessed.

Are the body and th spirit to different things? How individual ability and feeling displays in a human being and what correation between the two lise physiologically? Namely, what determines the external and the internal world? By what physiological functions and circulations, it makes possible to indciate individual's characteristic? These kinds of questions in constitutional medicine is able us lead to the following approach.
