A new series of PEO-PPO-PEO and PPO-PEO-PPO copolymers having several hydroxyl groups on the PPO chain segment were synthesized, further modified with various poly(lactic acid) PLA oligomeric chains to confer physical stability after thermo-gelation in the body fluid. Gel stability was endowed by either increasing hydrophobic interaction between PLA chains or inducing stereocomplex formation between enatiomeric isomers of PLA chains. Macromolecular drugs were incorporated within the gels and their release patterns were investigated using Pluronic F127 as a control.

This study investigates the factors of LOHAS (Lifestyles of Health and Sustainability), to segment consumer groups by LOHAS and identify the differences of LOHAS groups in the purchase of LOHAS fashion products. A total of 398 people aged from 20s to 50s were surveyed in September, 2009. The data were analyzed with factorial analysis, ANOVA, LSD, Chi-square, Cronbach' ${\alpha}$, using the SPSS 12.0. The survey showed: 1) Seven LOHAS factors (environment preservation, family centered, pursuit of rural life, preference of environmentally friendly products, interest in health, pursuit of leisurely life, and soul & body balance), 2) LOHAS consumers were classified into five segments (health interest, well-being, LOHAS, unconcerned, and naturalist). The distribution of age level, education level, and the type of job were different among LOHAS groups; and 3) Experiences of purchasing LOHAS AS fashion products in the past and intention to purchase LOHAS fashion products in the future were different among LOHAS groups.

Traction has been used since ancient times in the treatment of painfull spinal conditions, but the literature on traction and its clinical effectiveness Is limited. Traction can be defined as a drawing or pulling tension applied to a body segment. Cervical traction is a technique that applies a longitudinal force of the cervical spine and associated structures. Goals of traction include reduction of radicular signs and symptoms associated with conditions such as disk protrusion, degenerative disk disease, lateral stenosis, muscle spasm, and subluxations. The various mechanical factors most relevant to cervical traction are organized and discussed. The factors presented are 1) angle of pull, 2) Traction force, 3) duration of traction, 4) neck position and clinical application, and 5) frequency of treatment. It should allow physical therapists to adjust traction protocol to match the patient's symptoms and diagnosis. The purpose of this study is to provide a comprehensive overview of the cervical traction and treatment guidelines.

A species of the parasitic copepods Phrixcephalus unbellatus (Lernaeide ; Cyclopoidea) from Branchiostegus japonicus is described and reported for the first time in Korea. The parasite was recovered from the eye of host. P. umbellatus was easily identified by the body shape extensive ramification of the antennal processes and numerous branches on the thoracic horns, The parasite inserted its head and the anterior portion of thorax up to the 4th segment in the eye ball of the host through a narrow hole which it usually burrowed near the upper margin of the cornea above the crystalline lens. Prevaklence of the parasite increased from 3.3% January to 11.9% in June.

Three new species of Collocheres are described as associates of crinoid and ophiuroid echinoderms from Cheju Island, Korea: Collocheres brevipes n. sp. from the crinoids Comanthus solaster A. H. Clark and Decametra tigrina (A. H. Clark); C. solidus n. sp. from two species of the crinoids Comanthus solaster and Comanthus japonicus (Muller) and one species of ophiuroid-Ophiomastax mixta (Lutken); and C. tamladus n. sp. from the crinoid Catoptometra rubroflava (A. H. Clack). The three species are distinguished from one another and other congeners by the body size, dimension of caudal ramus and free segment of leg 5, and shape and ornamentation of urosome.

In these days, composite materials are applied to the military field like parts of air crafts, rockets, ammunitions and so on. As high pressure is loaded on the composite body, however, cracks or delamination phenomena can be occurred between layers of laminate. These cracks or delamination usually cause a deterioration of mechanical properties under the complicated loads. In this study, methods for improvement of the inter-laminar bonding strength of thick carbon/epoxy composite structures are suggested and discussed in terms of segment bending test.

Current fighter pilots, flying new generation aircrafts with high performance, are under severe stress during aerial combat maneuvering when they are exposed to high sustained +Gz(Head-to-foot) acceleration stress. Two major factor limiting performance during high sustaied +Gz acceleration stress are loss of vision-greyout or blackout, and loss of consciousness (LOC). These symptoms are believed to occur as a result of insuff- icient blood flow to the retina and the brain. This study was conducted to evaluate the effects of high sustained +Gz stress under different seat back angle. The results. obtained by the biodvanmic computer simulations using the ATB(articulated total body) model, are represented with respect to three variables, such as HIC(head injury criterion) value, average G, and maximum G. The results demonstrate that the seat back angle(over $30^{\circ}C$) had a significant effect to decrease +Gz stress on the head segment and had no significant effect on HIC.

This paper proposes a new color segmentation method of vehicle license plates in the RGB color space. Firstly, the proposed method shifts the histogram of an input image rightwards and then stretches the image of the histogram slide. Secondly, the method separates each of the three RGB color components and performs the adaptive threshold processing with the three components, respectively. Finally, it combines the three components under the condition of making up a segment color and removes noises with the morphological processing. The proposed method is implemented using C language in an embedded Linux system for a high-speed real-time image processing. Experiments were conducted by using real vehicle images. The results show that the proposed algorithm is successful for most vehicle images. However, the method fails in some vehicles when the body and the license plate have the same color.

Vortex shedding from a circular cylinder is simulated by means of the discrete vortex method. The shear layer emanating from the separation point is approximated as a sheet vortex which is in turn represented by a sequence of discrete vortices. The strength of these vortices is calculated from the vorticity shedding rate and introduced at a small distance off the side ($\Theta=\pm\pi/2$) of the cylinder surface in regular time step. Sheet vortex cutting, rediscretization and replacement of vortex by vortex segment are put to use to enhance stability of the sheet vortex evolution. The simulated vortex distribution pattern very well reproduces structure like the Karman vortex street. However, as for the force coefficients, the qualitative properties are correctly predicted but some more improvements are needed for the quantitative accuracy.
