  • Purpose : The purpose of this study is to investigate the effect of shoulder stabilization exercise accompanied by application of a pelvic compression belt on the muscle activity, pain and function of the muscles around the shoulder in subjects with round shoulders. Methods : For the study method, 28 students who were enrolled in K University with a distance of 1 cm or more between the clavicle of the peak and the outer ear path were selected through GPS 400 global postural analysis system measurement. The subjects were randomly assigned to 14 participants in the group wearing a pelvic compression belt and 14 patients in the group not wearing a pelvic compression belt. In all subjects, the muscle activities of the middle trapezius, lower trapezius, and serratus anterior muscles and the shoulder pain disorder index (SPADI) were measured. The intervention was performed 3 times a week for 4 weeks, and the applied intervention was push-up plus and modified prone cobra exercise. The muscle activities of the middle trapezius, lower trapezius, and serratus anterior muscles and SPADI score were compared using dependent t test before and after intervention. Results : In this study, both groups showed that the muscle activity of the middle trapezius, lower trapezius, and serratus anterior significantly increased after the intervention compared to before the intervention. On the other hand, SPADI showed no significant difference. Conclusion : The results of this study showed that muscle activity in the peri-shoulder joint was increased after push-up plus and modified prone cobra exercise in both groups, regardless of whether pelvic compression was applied or not. Therefore, it was found that shoulder stabilization exercise using the pelvic compression belt also contributed to the enhancement of muscle activity in the joints around the shoulder.

  • The purpose of this study is to evaluate the thermal safety for dry transport of a shipping cask. Analysis condition was based on an ambient temperature of 38$^{\circ}C$ for normal heat condition. The cask was designed to carry 4PWR spent fuel assemblies with a burnup of 38,000 MWD/MTU and 3 years of cooling time. Thermal analysis was carried out by using the COBRA-SFS code. The fuel cavity was considered to be filled with air, nitrogen or helium gas for dry transport. The results of analysis showed that the maximum temperatures of fuel rod cladding in air and helium cavity would be 277$^{\circ}C$ and 226$^{\circ}C$, respectively, for 3 years of cooling time. These values were less than the specified temperature to maintain the thermal integrity of fuel assembly for dry transport.

  • 동물, 곤충, 해조류 등으로 부터 얻어진 독소는 해로운 것으로 알려져 있지만 의학적으로 유용한 화합물을 내포하고 있다. 본 연구는 이러한 점에 착안하여 독사, 또는 곤충의 독 30여종을 대상으로 위암 세포인 SNU-1에 대해서 MTT assay에 의한 세포 독성 시험을 실시하였다. 이 중 세포 독성 활성이 가장 놓은 코브라 계통인 Ophiphagus hannah의 독으로 부터 세포 독성 물질의 정제를 시도하였다. HPLC-GPC와 HPLC-lEX 또는 RP-HPLC를 이용하여 정제하였고 각 분획들을 암세포주에 대해서 시험하였다. TSK-2000SW로 부터 2개의 분획을 얻어 분획 I에서 $IC_{50}$/ 의 값이 0.5 - 3 $\mu\textrm{g}$/ml의 범위 내에서 확인되었다. 분자량이 작은 분획 II에서는 세포독성이 작게 나타났지만 농축하여 성분 분석을 시도하였다. 분획 I을 RP-HPLC를 이용하여 TFA와 acetonitrile의 linear gradient에 의해 더욱 분리를 하였고, phopholipase $A_2$ 활성의 가능성도 측정하였다. 분획 II는 Mono S 칼람을 이용하여 ammonium acetate농도에 따른 pH gradient에 의한 분리를 시도하여 순도를 SDS-PAGE에 의해서 확인하였다. 각각의 크로마토그리피로 부터 얻은 분획에 대해서 세포 독성을 실시중에 있으며 성질도 동정중에 있다.

  • Purpose: The purpose of this study was to verify the effect of aromatherapy program on lowering body mass index and serum estrogen in obese post-menopause women. Method: One group Pretest-posttest experimental design was used. All subjects received intervention of aromatherapy program. The participants used 3% grapefruit oil, cypress and three other kinds of oil. BMI and Serum estrogen level of the participants' were measured by ZEUS 9.9(Resource Medical, 2004) and PACKARD Gamma Counter-Cobra II RI Manual(USA, 1997) before and after interventions being applied at the P. hospital. Data were analyzed by paired t-test using the SPSS/PC+Win 12 Version. Result: The level of serum estrogen and BMI of the participants were significantly decreased after aromathetapy program. Conclusion: These results suggest that the effect of aromatheapy program could be utilized as an effective intervention to reduce BMI and serum estrogen level in obese post-menopause women.

  • The flow at the impeller exit is important to validate engineering design and numerical analysis of pumps. However, it is not easy to measure the flow at the impeller exit and evaluate the impeller performance since there is usually strong interaction between the impeller and the volute casing. We installed axisymmetric collector instead of the volute casing, so there is no interaction between the impeller and casing. A 3-hole Cobra probe is used to investigate the flow at impeller exit and vaneless diffuser region for design and on design flow rate. For a single suction centrifugal pump of low specific speed, the flow field such as velocity, flow angle, and total pressure are measured by traversing the probe across the vaneless diffuser. These data can be used for performance prediction, desist and numerical analysis of pumps.

  • Gomaa에 의해 제안된 CODARTS(Concurrent Design Approach for Real-Time System)방법론은 COBRA(Concurrent Object-based Real-Time Analysis)을 사용하여 실시간 시스템의 행동 모델을 개발하고 행동 모델에서 병렬 태스크 구조로 변환하는 데 도움을 주는 태스크 구성 지침을 제공한다. CODARTS에서는 태스크 구성 지침을 RTSA(Real-Time System Analysis)표기법으로 표현된 행동 모델에 적용하여 태스크를 구성한다. 그러나 RTSA 표기법에는 태스크를 구성하는데 필요한 실행 성질 및 주기, 이벤트의 병렬성 및 순서와 같은 정보들을 기술하지 않기 때문에 직접 태스크 구성 지침을 적용하는 것은 어렵다. 본 논문에서는 CODARTS 방법론의 분석단게에서 태스크 구성에 필요한 정보를 통합적으로 나타낼 수 있는 STS (Specification for Task Structuring)를 제안한고 이를 이용하여 태스크를 자동적으로 구성할 수 있는 알고리즘과 적용 예제를 보인다.

  • We implemented the Aural Cueing System(ACS) system of the reconfigurable tactical trainer(RTT) for th rotor aircraft. RTT provides a collective training system to meet aviation training requirements and supports organizational training for aviations units in combined arms collective training and mission rehearsal. ACS handles the volume, pitch and repetition of the digitally stored sounds based on commands it receives from an UDP/IP. In this paper, we explained and implemented the conceptual and detail design the ACS system for the rotor aircraft such as AH-1H(Iroquios), UH-60(Blackhwak), AH-1(Cobra) etc. The conceptual design composed of the sound cueing data analysis, sound modelling which is inner, outer, weapon and warn environment of rotor aircraft, sound synthesis and replay.

  • The continuous energy Monte Carlo neutron transport code, MC21, was coupled to the CTF subchannel thermal-hydraulics code using a combination of Consortium for Advanced Simulation of Light Water Reactors (CASL) tools and in-house Python scripts. An MC21/CTF solution for VERA Core Physics Benchmark Progression Problem 6 demonstrated good agreement with MC21/COBRA-IE and VERA solutions. The MC21/CTF solution for VERA Core Physics Benchmark Progression Problem 7, Watts Bar Unit 1 at beginning of cycle hot full power equilibrium xenon conditions, is the first published coupled Monte Carlo neutronics/subchannel T-H solution for this problem. MC21/CTF predicted a critical boron concentration of 854.5 ppm, yielding a critical eigenvalue of $0.99994{\pm}6.8E-6$ (95% confidence interval). Excellent agreement with a VERA solution of Problem 7 was also demonstrated for integral and local power and temperature parameters.
