To predict changes in biomechanical parameters such as intradiscal pressure, and the shock absorbing mechanism in the spinal motion segment under different impact duration/loading rates, a three dimensional L3/L4 motion segment finite element model was modified to incorporate the poroelastic properties of the motion segment. The results were analyzed under variable impact duration for normal and degenerated discs. For short impact duration and a given maximum compressive force, relatively high cancellous pore pressure was generated as compared with a case of long impact duration, although the amount of impulse was increased. In contrast relatively constant pore pressure was generated in the nucleus. Disc degeneration increased pore pressure in the disc and decreased pore pressure in the cancellous core, which is more vulnerable to compressive fracture compared with intact case.

A four degrees of freedom (dof) motion platform for bicycle simulator is developed. The motion platform, capable of the vertical linear and three angular motions, is designed based on analysis of the typical motion characteristics revealed by the existing six dof bicycle simulator. The platform essentially consists of two parts： the three dof parallel manipulator, consisting of a moving platform, a fixed base and three actuators, and the turntable to generate the yaw motion. The nonlinear kinematics and dynamics of the three dof parallel manipulator with multiple closed loop chains are analyzed for tracking control of the motion platform. The tracking performances of the three control schemes are experimentally compared： the computed torque method (CTM), the sliding mode control (SMC) and the PD control. The CTM and SMC, incorporated with the system dynamics model, are found to be equally better in performance than the PD controller, irrespective of the presence of external disturbance.

This paper presents a development of 6DOF motion platform far a tilting train simulator. The tilting train simulator will be used to verify the tilting electronics and tilting control algorithm which are to be applied the Korean 180km/h tilting train. The tilting train simulator is composed of a 6-axis motion platform, a track generation system, a graphic user interface, and a visualization system with 1600mm-diameter dome screen. In this study, the 6DOF motion platform for a tilting train simulator has been designed and manufactured. The motion platform developed is a motion platform of Stewart type. The inverse kinematic analysis has been performed to determine the length of the links of the platform. Furthermore, the specification of the motors have been evaluated by the equation of motion of the platform.

Purpose: In this study we introduced minimal invasive plate osteosynthesis (MIPO) and analyzed clinical outcomes to determine the effectiveness of this intervention in proximal humerus fractures. Materials and Methods: We studied 27 patients including 16 cases with a 2-part fracture, 10 cases with a 3-part fracture, and 1 case with a 4-part fracture. Clinical outcomes were evaluated using UCLA score, KSS score and recovery of range of motion. Time to union and humerus neck-shaft angle change were estimated by radiologic assessment. The average follow up period was 19 months. Results: UCLA scores were "excellent" for 15 patients, "good" for 12 patients. The mean KSS score was 91.4 at final follow-up. The average shoulder range of motion was $167.2^{\circ}$ in forward elevation. Bone union occurred by 14.1 weeks postoperatively. Humerus neck-shaft angle recovery was "excellent" in 24 patients and "moderate" in 3 patients. There were no complications such as axillary nerve paralysis, deep infection, or subacromial impingement of the plate. Conclusion: MIPO for proximal humerus fractures is an effective procedure if performed with sufficient understanding of the anatomical structures. MIPO leads to minimized dissection of soft tissue, low complication rates and early recovery of range of motion.

본 연구에서는 코움 드라이브에 비해 구동력은 크고 평행 판 구동 방식에 비해서는 선형 특성이 우수하며 안정된 구동거리가 증가하는 특성을 갖는 새로운 정전력(electrostatic force) 구동 방식을 제안한다. 운동 전극과 고정 전극을 기울어지게 배치하여 전극 면에 평행한 정전력 $F_x$와 전극 면에 수직인 정전력 $F_y$의 합력 $F_e$ 방향으로 전극을 운동시킴으로써 정전력의 방향과 전극의 운동 방향을 일치시킨다. 제안된 구동방식의 정전력 모델을 이용한 해석 결과 코움 드라이브에 비해서는 구동력이 50 % 이상 크며 평행 판 구동에 비해서는 안정된 구동 거리가 10 - 30 % 이상 증가하는 구동 특성을 얻을 수 있었다. 제안된 구동방식을 이용하여 HDD의 트랙 방향 저장 밀도를 증가시키기 위한 듀얼스테이지 서보(dual-stage servo)에 사용 될 마이크로 액츄에이터 (microactuator)를 설계하고 SoG(Silicon on Glass) 공정을 이용하여 제작하였다.

The origin of the East sea is discussed in the light of modern geophysical theories such as plate tectonics and sea-floor spreading. The origin of the East Sea was due to the tensional force of the back-arc spreading which was initiated as early as late Cretaceous time of Paleocene. The spreading was asymmetric with a fast movement of eastward or southeastward and a slow westward motions. The spreading, however, was confined to the East Sea due to the change of the Pacific Plate north-northwest to west-northwest during Eocene time. Further intensifying research based on more accurate seismic data as well as on geophysical and geological informations should be carried out continuously to understand if the spreading of the Japan Sea died out due to triple junction formed by mention of the Pacific, the Eurasian, and the Philippine plates since the Quaternary.

In and around the Korean Peninsula, 9 intraplate earthquake mechanisms since 1936 were analyzed to understand the regional stress orientation and tectonics. These earthquakes are largest ones in this century and may represent the characteristics of earthquake in this region. Focal mechanism of these earthquakes show predominant strike-slip faulting with small amount of thrust components. The average P-axis is almost horizontal ENE-WSW. This indicate that not only the subducting Pacific Plate but also the indenting Indian Plate controls earthquake mechanism in the far east of the Eurasian Plate.

A slider of the pantograph undergoes uneven and abnormal wear due to sliding contact with the catenary. In the case of rain, the loss of lubricant increases the frictional resistance for the reciprocating motion between the catenary and the slider, accelerating local wear. The slider in the winter should have good wear resistance, which can be achieved through alloy design. Uneven and abnormal wear were not observed in the results of a driving test using a wear resistant slider. It was found that the increased density of the slider enhanced the corrosive effects of Fe-Ti, preventing the occurrence of abnormal wear by maintaining the wear and arc resistance in the rainy season. Also, mechanical and electrical wear did not affect the composition of the slider, and this improved the wear resistance. Inaddition, the slider was applied to an entire train and was tested during driving; ananalysis of the correlation of the catenary was performed, including during the rainy season and the winter season.
