One of the most performed action in daily life is standing up from sitting position. As the population of the world is aging at the high rates, people may face problems with reduced muscle strength as well as psychological changes. This can lead elderly people having difficulties with standing up from chair. Now, with the aging trend worldwide, products are being developed that can support the lives of the elderly. This study examines the distribution of hip pressure in relation to the seating positions of the standing assistance seats under development to prevent standing up accidents in older adults. The currently developing standing assistant chair designed to tilt to a maximum angle of 25 degrees. At over $25^{\circ}$, design considers that older people are at risk of thrown back out of that force and that the forces exerted on their arms and legs can be a significant burden to older people. By considering danger of higher than $25^{\circ}$ for older people which is experimented in the basis of static capturing approach in previous papers, it is experimented people with age group of 20~60 on $0^{\circ}$ to $25^{\circ}$ tilting angle on the basis of dynamic capturing method in order to pick convenient angle of inclination. Moreover, tried to find the optimum angle by comparing the hip pressure distribution when seated at the edge of the seat and at the center of the seat with the pressure distribution sensor.

연구 목적: 지르코니아 보철물을 위한 치아 형성이 실제 임상에서 어떻게 이루어지는지에 대해 조사하고 향후 치아 형성에 대한 교육 자료 및 추가 연구의 기초 자료로 활용하고자 한다. 연구 재료 및 방법: 지르코니아 치관 제작을 위해 milling center에 보내진 모형을 조사하여 Lava CAD/CAM System으로 스캔 한 후 'ImageJ' 프로그램 상에서 측정하여, 이를 비교 분석하였다. 각 치아마다 근원심면과 협설면에서의 축면 경사각을 측정하였다. 또한, 견치를 제외한 전치에서 절단연 0.4 mm 하방 부위의 bucco-lingual diameter 측정하였다. 결과 및 결론: 실험군 내에서 지르코니아 전부도재관을 위한 지대치의 축면 경사각은 $18.67^{\circ}$로 문헌에서 추천하는 각도 보다 크게 나타났다. 지르코니아 완전도재관의 지대치 형성 시 축면 경사각은 협설과 근원심면, 악궁 내 위치에 따라 차이가 있었다. Peak 0.4의 평균값은 1.18 mm로 밀링버의 최소직경을 고려한 요구조건인 0.8 mm 보다 큰 값으로 나타났다. 그러나 선각 부위 rounding 에 관한 추가적인 연구가 필요할 것으로 생각된다.

본 연구에서는 육묘장에서 인력 또는 관행 자동관수장치의 활용도 조사를 통해 관수장치의 문제점과 그 개선점을 파악하여 균일관수가 가능한 스마트 관수장치를 개발하고 그 성능을 분석하였다. 자동관수와 인력관수의 평균 관수량은 각각 28.7±4.4g과 14.2±4.3g으로 두 조건 모두 변동계수가 30% 이내로 균일관수로 판단할 수 있다. 그렇지만 변동계수가 30%인 인력관수에 비해 자동관수는 15%로 균일도가 높았다. 개발된 균일관수장치에 탑재된 분사각이 80°인 노즐은 이론상 600mm 높이에서 가장 균일한 것으로 분석되었고, 균일관수 장치를 이용한 관수시험 결과 중앙부의 관수 균일도는 평균 대비 20% 이내이지만 가장자리부는 중앙부에 비해 50% 이상 관수량이 적었다. 균일관수장치를 활용한 토마토 접목묘 재배시험 결과, 시험기간 10일간 중앙부는 초장이 평균 72mm 생장한 데 비해 가장자리부는 평균 28mm 생장하여 가장자리부에 대한 추가 관수가 필요한 것으로 나타났다. 가장자리부 추가 관수장치를 부착하여 관수할 경우 중앙부에 비해 가장자리부의 관수량은 50% 이상이었으며, 중앙부에서는 분사각의 겹침으로 인하여 관수량의 차이는 발생하였으나, 그 차이는 30% 이내였다. 가장자리 집중관수 시스템 활용 시 각 지점별 생장 차이는 있으나, 10일간 생육을 비교하면 양측 가장자리의 평균 생장률은 24%, 중앙부의 평균 생장률은 26%인 점을 고려하면 균일관수장치에 비해 생장 균일도가 높았다. 모종의 초장 균일도 향상을 위해서는 관수장치의 진행방향에 거리센서를 설치하여 작물의 생장에 따라 관수장치의 높이를 조절이 필요할 것으로 판단된다.

Small cells are deployed in Heterogeneous Networks (HetNet) to improve overall performance. These access points can provide high-rate mobile services at hotspots to users. In a Small Cell Network (SCN), the good deployment of small cells can guarantee the performance of users on the basis of average and cell edge spectrum efficiency. In this paper, the performance of small cell deployment is analyzed by using system-level simulations. The positions of small cells can be adjusted according to the deployment radius and angle. Moreover, different Inter-Cell Interference Coordination (ICIC) techniques are also studied, which can be implemented either in time domain or in frequency domain. The network performances are evaluated under different ICIC techniques when the locations of Small evolved Nodes (SeNBs) vary. Simulation results show that the average throughput and cell edge throughput can be greatly improved when small cells are properly deployed with the certain deployment radius and angle. Meanwhile, how to optimally configure the parameters to achieve the potential of the deployment is discussed when applying different ICIC techniques.

본 논문에서는 2차원 물체영상으로부터 면을 분할하고 분할된 면의 형태에 대한 정보를 추출하는 새로운 면 분할 및 표현 알고리즘을 제안한다. 본 논문에서 사용된 signature기법은 물체나 면의 중심을 구하고 중심점으로부터 반시계방향으로 360도 회전하면서 중심점과 경계선까지의 거리 D를 회전각도 ${\theta}$의 함수로 표현하는 방법으로, 물체영상에 적용했을 때 면의 위치에 따라 signature영역에서 하나의 회전각도에 대응하여 2개 이상의 거리값을 갖는 구간들이 존재하게 되며, 이들 거리값들은 각 구간 내에서 면의 개수 만큼의 폐곡선을 형성한다. 이와 같은 특징을 이용하여 면을 분할할 수 있으며, 분할된 면으로부터 꼭지점의 수, 모서리의 수, 오목특성 등과 같은 면의 특성을 얻을 수 있다. 제안된 알고리즘은 면의 일부분이 손실된 경우에도 curve fitting방법을 적용하여 손실된 부분을 용이하게 복구할 수 있다는 장점을 갖는다.

An original sensor system based on Fiber Bragg Gratings (FBG) for the strain monitoring of an adaptive wing element is presented in this paper. One of the main aims of the SARISTU project is in fact to measure the shape of a deformable wing for performance optimization. In detail, an Adaptive Trailing Edge (ATE) is monitored chord- and span-wise in order to estimate the deviation between the actual and the desired shape and, then, to allow attaining a prediction of the real aerodynamic behavior with respect to the expected one. The integration of a sensor system is not trivial: it has to fit inside the available room and to comply with the primary issue of the FBG protection. Moreover, dealing with morphing structures, large deformations are expected and a certain modulation is necessary to keep the measured strain inside the permissible measure range. In what follows, the mathematical model of an original FBG-based structural sensor system is presented, designed to evaluate the chord-wise strain of an Adaptive Trailing Edge device. Numerical and experimental results are compared, using a proof-of-concept setup. Further investigations aimed at improving the sensor capabilities, were finally addressed. The elasticity of the sensor structure was exploited to enlarge both the measurement and the linearity range. An optimisation process was then implemented to find out an optimal thickness distribution of the sensor system in order to alleviate the strain level within the referred component.

The mixed-mode stress intensity factors of 2-D angled cracks are evaluated by Petrov-Galerkin natural element (PG-NE) method in which Voronoi polygon-based Laplace interpolation functions and CS-FE basis functions are used for the trial and test functions respectively. The interaction integral is implemented in a frame of PG-NE method in which the weighting function defined over a crack-tip integral domain is interpolated by Laplace interpolation functions. Two Cartesian coordinate systems are employed and the displacement, strains and stresses which are solved in the grid-oriented coordinate system are transformed to the other coordinate system aligned to the angled crack. The present method is validated through the numerical experiments with the angled edge and center cracks, and the numerical accuracy is examined with respect to the grid density, crack length and angle. Also, the stress intensity factors obtained by the present method are compared with other numerical methods and the exact solution. It is observed from the numerical results that the present method successfully and accurately evaluates the mixed-mode stress intensity factors of 2-D angled cracks for various crack lengths and crack angles.

This paper shows the numerical and experimental results about the hydrodynamic characteristics of X-Twisted rudders having continuous twist of the leading edge along the span. All the results were compared with those of the semi-balanced rudder. Calculation through the Reynolds-Averaged Navier-Stokes Equation (RANSE) code with propeller sliding meshes shows large inflow angle and fast inflow velocity in the vicinity of ${\pm}0.7$ R from the shaft center, so it may cause cavitation. Also, X-Twisted rudder has relatively small inflow angles along the rudder span compared with semi-balanced rudder. For the performance validation, rudders for two large container carriers were designed and tested. Cavitation tests at the medium sized cavitation tunnel with respect to the rudder types and twisted angles showed the effectiveness of twist on cavitation and the tendency according to the twist. And the resistance, self-propulsion and manoeuvring tests were also carried out at the towing tank. As a result, in the case of X-Twisted rudder, ship speed was improved with good manoeuvring performance. Especially, it was found out that manoeuvring performance between port and starboard was well balanced compared with semi-balanced rudders.
