  • This study is to define how the difference of athletic change influence on the last regrasp after somersault in Belle movement of parallel bars. For his study, the following conclusion was produced by analysis of athletic change by means of three dimensional visual image in three athlete of nation. 1. As the picture of S1, there are total used time(2.01 sec), S3(2.17 sec) and S2(2.19 sec). In case of a short needed time, it is difficult for them to perform the remaining movement of the vertical elevating flight easily and comfortably, it is judged as performing the small movement with restrict swing. 2 In the change of body center sped by each event, it is calculated as $-89.1^{\circ}$ the narrowest in S1, $-81.96^{\circ}$ the widest and then $86.34^{\circ}$ in S3. In E3 event, average compound speed is 4.07m/s, S2 showed the fastest speed of 4.14m/s whereas S1 the narrowest angle of 3.95m/s. 3. A shoulder joint and coxa are the period of mention in E3. In E4 which was pointed out the longest vertical distance, S2 that is indicated the highest vertical height as the period of detach in parallel bars. showed -3.91m. This is regarded as a preparatory movement for dynamic performance after using effectively elastic movement of shoulder joint and coxa while easily going up with turning back movement. In the 5th phrase, long airborne time and vertical change position is showed as the start while regrasping securely air flight movement from high position. 4. In E5, a long flight time and a long vertical displacement were shown as the regrasp after somersault efficiently in high position with stability from the point of the highest peak of the center of the body. Especially, S2 is marked as a little bit long position, while S1 is reversely indicated as performing somersault and unstable motion in a low position. 5. In E3, at the point of the largest extension of the shoulder joint and hip joint the shoulder joint is largely marked in $182^{\circ}$ and the hip point $182^{\circ}$ in S2. The shoulder joint is marked at the smallest angle in $177^{\circ}$ and the hip point $176^{\circ}$ in S1. And S1 is being judged by its performance of the less self - confident motion with lessening a breath of swing. S2 makes the most use of flexion and extension of the shoulder joint and the hip joint effectively. It was performed greatly with swinging and dropping the rotary movement and the rotary inertia naturally. 6. In E6, as the point of regrasp of the upper arm in parallel bars it is recognized by the that of components of vertical and horizontal velocity stably. During this study, the insufficient thing and the study on the parallel bars at a real game later are more activated than now. If it is really used as the basic materials by means of Belle Picked Study of Super E level after Bell movement, you may perceive the technique movement previously and perform without difficulty. Especially, such technique as crucifix is quite advantageous for oriental people thanks to small body shape condition. In conclusion we will nicely prepare for our suitable environment to gradually lessen trials and errors by analyzing and studying kinematically this movement.

  • Statement of problem. In distal extension removable partial denture, the preservation of health of abutment teeth is very important, but abutment teeth are subjected to unfavorable stress under unilateral loading specially. Purpose. The purpose of this study was to investigate the biomechanical effects of mandibular removable partial dentures with various prosthetic designs under unilateral loading, using strain gauge analysis. Material and methods. Artificial teeth of both canines were anchored bilaterally in a mandibular edentulous model made of resin. Bilateral distal extension removable partial dentures with splinted and unsplinted abutments were fabricated. Group 1: Clasp-retained mandibular removable partial denture with unsplinted abutments Group 2: Clasp-retained mandibular removable partial denture with splinted abutments by 6-unit bridge. Group 3: Bar-retained mandibular removable partial denture Strain gauges were bonded on the labial plate of the mandibular resin model, approximately 2 mm dose to the abutments. Two unilateral vertical experimental loadings (30N and 100N) were applied subsequently via miniature load cell that were placed at mandibular left first molar region. Strain measurements were performed and simultaneously monitored from a computer connected to data acquisition system. For within-group evaluations, t-test was used to compare the strain values and for between-group comparisons, a one-way analysis of variance (ANOVA) was used and Tukey test was used as post hoc comparisons. Results. The strain values of group 1 and 2 were tensile under loadings. In contrast, strain values of group 3 were compressive in nature. Strain values increased as the applied load in increased from 30N to 100N (p<.05) except for right side in group 1. Under 30N loading, in left side, group 1 showed higher strain values than groups 2 and 3 in absolute quantity (p<.05). And group 2 showed higher strain values than group 1 (p<.05). In right side, group 1 and 2 showed higher strain values than group 3 in absolute quantity (p<.05). Under 100N loading in left side, group 1 showed higher strain values than groups 2 and 3 in absolute quantity (p<.05). And group 2 showed higher strain values than group 1 (p<.05). In right side, group 1 and 2 showed higher strain values than group 3 in absolute quantity (p<.05). Under 30N loading, group 2 and 3 showed higher strain values in right side than in left side. Under 100N loading, right side strain values were higher than left side ones for all groups. Conclusion. Splinting of two isolated abutments by bridge reduced the peri-abutment strain in comparison with unsplinted abutments under unilateral loading. Bar-retained removable partial denture showed the lowest strain of three groups, and compressive nature.

The data collections of this study were digitized by KWON3D program computed The data were standardized using cubic spline interpolation based by calculating the mean values and the standard deviation calculated for each variables. When performing the Air-rolling-breakfall, from the data analysis and discussions, the conclusions were as follows : 1. Anterior-posterior directional COG(APD-COG) when performing Air-rolling-breakfall motion, while PFO over to the vertical-hurdles(2m height) in judo. The range of APD-COG by forward was $0.31{\sim}0.41m$ in take-off position(event 1), $1.20{\sim}1.33m$ in the air-top position(event 2), $2.12{\sim}2.30m$ in the touch-down position(event 3), gradually and $2.14{\sim}2.32m$ in safety breakfall position(event 4), respectively. 2 The linear velocity of APD-COG was $1.03{\sim}2.14m/sec$. in take-off position(event 1), $1.97{\sim}2.22m/sec$. gradually in the air-top position(event 2), $1.05{\sim}1.32m/sec$. in the touch-down position (event 3), gradual decrease and $0.91{\sim}1.23m/sec$. in the safety breakfall position(event 4), respectively. 3. The vertical directional COG(VD-COG) when performing Air-rolling-breakfall motion, while PFO to the vertical-hurdles(2m height) in judo. The range of VD-COG toward upward from mat was $1.35{\sim}1.46m$ in take-off position(event 1), the highest $2.07{\sim}2.23m$ in the air-top position(event 2), and after rapid decrease $0.3{\sim}0.58m$ in the touch-down position(event 3), gradual decrease $0.22{\sim}0.50m$ in safety breakfall position(event 4), respectively. 4. The linear velocity of VlJ.COG was $1.60{\sim}1.87m/sec$. in take-off position(event 1), $0.03{\sim}0.08m/sec$. gradually in the air-top position(event 2), $-4.37{\sim}\;-4.76m/sec$. gradual decrease in the touch-down position(event 3), gradual decrease and -4.40${\sim}\;-4.77m/sec$. in safety breakfall position(event 4), respectively. When performing Air-rolling-breakfall showed parabolic movement from take-off position to air-top position, and after showed vertical fall movement from air-top position to safety breakfall. In conclusion, Ukemi(breakfall) is safety fall method Therefore, actions need for performing safety fall movement, that decrease and minimize shock and impact during Air-rolling-breakfall from take-off board action to air-top position must be maximize of angular momentum, and after must be minimize in touch-down position and safety breakfall position.

  • 전방십자인대 재건술은 슬관절 수술 중에서 흔하게 시행되는 수술 중 한가지이나 해부학 및 생역학에 대한 이해가 증가하여 수술 기법의 다양한 변화가 있었음에도 수술 실패는 7%-16% 정도로 보고되고 있어 회전 불안정성에 대한 관심은 지속적으로 강조되고 있다. 최근 들어 전외측인대가 회전 불안정성에 대한 2차적인 지지 구조물로 많은 관심을 받고 연구되고 있다. 하지만 아직까지 전외측인대의 해부학적 형태, 생역학 및 임상 결과에 있어서 논란이 있다. 전외측인대는 대퇴골 외상과 부위에서 경골 근위부의 Gerdy's 결절과 비골 골두 사이에서 슬관절 전외측으로 주행하는 구조물로 알려져 있으며 생역학적 연구에서 경골의 내회전에 따라 전외측인대의 긴장도가 증가하는 슬관절 회전안정성에 기여를 하는 구조물로 알려져 있다. 전외측인대 손상의 진단은 신체검사, 방사선적 검사, 자기공명영상 등의 다양한 검사를 이용하여 종합적으로 판단하며 그중 주로 pivot-shift 검사와 자기공명영상의 결과를 종합하여 진단하게 된다. 최근에는 장경인대의 Kaplan 섬유 등과 같이 전외측인대 복합체로 판단하기도 하며 그 구조물들의 손상여부를 각각 고려하기도 한다. 치료에 있어서 다양한 수술법이 소개되어 사용되고 있고, 연구마다 다른 수술의 적응증을 제시하고 있는 실정으로 최근의 임상적 연구에서 회전 불안정성에 있어 긍정적인 효과를 보고하였지만 앞으로 더 많은 연구가 진행되어야 전외측인대를 강화하는 외측 강화 술식의 유용성에 대한 정확한 평가가 될 수 있을 것으로 판단된다.

  • Background: It is very difficult for hemiplegic patients to effectively perform the sit-to-stand (STS) movements independently because of several factors. Moreover, the analysis of STS motion in hemiplegic patients has been thus far confined to only muscle strength evaluation with little information available on structural and environmental factors of varying chair height and foot conditions. Objects: This study aimed to analyze the change in biomechanical factors (ground reaction force, center of mass displacement, and the angle and moment of joints) of the joints in the lower extremities with varying chair height and foot conditions in hemiplegic patients while they performed the STS movements. Methods: Nine hemiplegic patients voluntarily participated in this study. Their STS movements was analyzed in a total of nine sessions (one set of three consecutive sessions) with varying chair height and foot conditions. The biomechanical factors of the joints in the lower extremities were measured during the movements. Ground reaction force was measured using a force plate; and the other abovementioned parameters were measured using an infra-red camera. Two-way repeated analysis of variance was performed to determine the changes in biomechanical factors in the lower extremities with varying chair height and foot conditions. Results: No interaction was found between chair height and foot conditions (p>.05). All measured variables with varying chair height showed a significant difference (p<.05). Maximum joint flexion angle, maximum joint moment, and the displacement of the center of mass in foot conditions showed a significant difference (p<.05); however the maximum ground reaction force did not show a significant difference (p>.05). Conclusion: The findings suggest that hemiplegic patients can more stably and efficiently perform the STS movement with increased chair height and while they are bare-foot.

  • 생역학적으로 우수한 스프링을 설계하기 위해서 스프링의 형태에 여러 가지 변화를 주면서 각 상황에서 force system이 변하는 양상을 수치분석계산과 spring tester를 이용한 실험과 비교하였다. 주어진 해부학적인 한계 내에서 최대한 생역학적 효율을 높이는 요소들을 제시하였다. 1. 스프링의 높이가 증가하면 M/F ratio는 증가하고 L/D rate은 감소한다. 2. 스프링의 최소 굽힘 모멘트 부위보다 위에 wire를 첨가하면 M/F ratio는 증가하고 L/D rate은 감소한다. 3. 스프링의 최소 굽힘 모멘트 부위보다 아래에 wire를 첨가하면 M/F ratio는 감소하고 L/D rate도 감소한다. 4. 스프링의 위쪽에 아무리 wire를 많이 첨가하여도 스프링의 높이 이상의 M/F ratio는 얻을 수 없다. 5. 제한된 높이의 스프링으로 충분한 M/F ratio를 얻기 위해서는 부가적인 모멘트가 필요하다. 6. 스프링의 수평 길이가 증가할 수록 M/F ratio와 L/D rate는 감소하므로 부가적인 모멘트는 점점 각도가 증가할 수 있도록 스프링 전체에 부여할 필요가 있다. 7. L/D rate는 재료, 단면, 그리고 형태에 영향을 받지만 M/F ratio는 재료나 단면에 관계없이 스프링의 형태에만 영향을 받는다.

  • Average Coordinate Reference System (ACRS) 방법은 인체 보행 분석 시 발생하는 실험오타를 줄이기 위해서 개발되었다. 실험적으로 측정되어지는 운동학 데이터가 인체 모델링 분석을 수행하기 위해서 사용되어지며. 그 모델의 정확성은 그 측정된 데이터에 직접적인 연관 관계가 있다. 그러나, 인체가 보행하는 동안에 피부의 움직임과 골격구조의 변형이 발생하고 또한 운동 분석 실험장비 자체가 가지고 있는 여러 가지의 한계 때문에. 그 실험 데이터에 정확도는 의문시되어 진다 개발된 ACRS 방법은. 인체 운동분석을 수행하는 여러 종류의 시스템에 적용할 수 있는데. 본 연구에서는 ACRS 방법을 광학적으로 추적이 되는 표적을 인체의 각 세그멘트에 붙인 시스템에 적용하였다 ACRS 방법에서는. 각 세그멘트에 붙어있는 각각의 표적들이 독립적으로 그 세그멘트 안에서 국부좌표계의 원점으로 취급되어질 수 있다. 실험 과정에서 발생하는 본래부터의 오타 때문에. 각 원점에서 계산된 Euler angle은 서로 상이한 값을 갖는다 실험 초기에 측정한 보정 세그멘트 기준 프레임의 지식을 이용하면, 각 표적 위치에서 계산된 Euler angles들의 평균값을 계산할수 있고, 그 평균값은 피부의 확장과 회전의 영향을 최소화한 값이다. 운동분석에 일반적으로 적응되는 Euler angle 방법과 개발된 ACRS 방법을 비교하여 보면. ACRS 방법을 사용하였을 때 오차가 줄어들었다 만약에, 보행 실험 데이터에 오타가 존재하지 않는다면, 절대좌표계를 사용한 무릎 관절의 분리와 관통된 거리는 일회 보행구간 동안에 제로가 될 것으로 생각된다. 일반적으로 적용되는 Euler angle 방법을 적용하였을 때, 분리와 관통된 거리는 약 18 mm 가지 분포가 되었고, 개발된 ACRS 방법을 사용하였을 시에는 약 12 mm 까지 분포가 되었다.

  • Purpose: The objective of this study was to evaluate the effect of microthreads on removal torque and bone-to-implant contact (BIC). Methods: Twelve miniature pigs for each experiment, a total of 24 animals, were used. In the removal torque analysis, each animal received 2 types of implants in each tibia, which were treated with sandblasting and acid etching but with or without microthreads at the marginal portion. The animals were sacrificed after 4, 8, or 12 weeks of healing. Each subgroup consisted of 4 animals, and the tibias were extracted and removal torque was measured. In the BIC analysis, each animal received 3 types of implants. Two types of implants were used for the removal torque test and another type of implant served as the control. The BIC experiment was conducted in the mandible of the animals. The $P_1-M_1$ teeth were extracted, and after a 4-month healing period, 3 each of the 2 types of implants were placed, with one type on each side of the mandible, for a total of 6 implants per animal. The animals were sacrificed after a 2-, 4-, or 8-week healing period. Each subgroup consisted of 4 animals. The mandibles were extracted, specimens were processed, and BIC was analyzed. Results: No significant difference in removal torque value or BIC was found between implants with and without microthreads. The removal torque value increased between 4 and 8 weeks of healing for both types of implants, but there was no significant difference between 8 and 12 weeks. The percentage of BIC increased between 2 and 4 weeks for all types of implants, but there was no significant difference between 4 and 8 weeks. Conclusions: The existence of microthreads was not a significant factor in mechanical and histological stability.
