The purpose of this study was to investigate the effects of circuit weight training(CWT) on isokinetic muscle strength and body composition in elderly. The subjects who engaged in this experiment exercised at 40$\%$ of 1-RM, 12 repetitions, followed by 15 sec as the subject moved to the each break training program which was consist of the circuit of 10 stations performed on 3 set a day, circuits 3 days a week during 10 weeks. The assessment of isokinetic factor was in concentric flexors and extensors of right and left knee joint. Tests were performed on the Cybex 770 Isokinetic Dynamometer and body composition were estimated the three parts of chest, abdomen and anterior thigh by using skinfold caliper, calculated the average and followed by Seri and Brozek way. Statistical analysis were performed using analysis of variance paired t-test, accepting level for all significant was above $\alpha$=.05 and $\alpha$=.01. Following is as a result of 10 weeks circuit weight training. 1. At the $60_{\circ}$ /sec, the right and left knee isokinetic concentric flexors and extensors peak torque increased significantly (p < .01). 2. At the $180_{\circ}$ /sec, the right and left knee isokinetic concentric flexors and extensors peak torque increased significantly (p < .01). 3. At the $60_{\circ}$ /sec, the right and left knee isokenetic concentric flexors and extensors average power increased significantly(p < 0.5, p < .01) and at the $180_{\circ}$ /sec, the right extensors didn't show any statistical significant. 4. At the $60_{\circ}$ /sec, the right and left knee Isokinetic concentric flexors and extensors total work increased significantly(p < .05, p < .01) but at the $180_{\circ}$ /su right concentric flexors didn't show any statistical significant. 5. The body composition changed significantly(p < .01). These results suggest that 10 weeks circuit weight training increases the peak torque, average power, total work significantly and decreases the $\%$body fat significantly.

영상기반 가상현실 시스템에서 사용되는 가상환경은 영상모자익(image mosaics)을 통해 만들어진 파노라마 영상으로 표현할 수 있다. 이 경우 실린더 파노라마 영상은 생성 시 제약성 때문에 고정 시점에 방향만을 바꿀 수 있는 탐색을 지원하다. Shum은 가상환경 내에서 자유로운 시점이동을 제공하기 위해 카메라를 일정한 간격으로 회전시켜 얻은 영상으로부터 동심원을 이루는 여러 개의 실린더 형태인 광필드(light field)의 4차원 함수를 세 개의 파라미터, 즉 중심으로부터 거리, 높이, 각도의 3차원 함수로 단순화시킨 동심원 모자익(concentric mosaics)을 제안하였다[10]. 그러나, 이 방법은 카메라의 동일한 간격의 수평 회전운동에 의해 영상을 얻어야 하기 때문에 특별한 장치가 필요하고, 중심으로부터의 거리에 따라 카메라를 배치시켜 촬영함으로써 많은 영상을 처리해야하는 단점이 있다. 본 논문에서는 Shum의 동심원 모자익 생성시의 단점을 보완하기 위하여 영상 스트립을 실린더 평면에 배치시키는 방법을 이용한 효율적인 동심원 모자익 생성 알고리즘을 제안한다. 이는 영상 촬영 시 자유로운 수평 회전이 가능하여 부가적인 촬영장치가 필요하지 않다. 또한 새로운 시점에 대한 영상을 생성할 때, 보간 영상의 사용을 최소화하여 영상의 질을 향상시켰다.

본 연구에서는 등척성 운동 시 단축성 운동과 신장성 운동에 따른 이두근과 삼두근의 근피로도 변화를 근전도를 통해 평가하였다. 건강한 남성12명을 대상으로 팔꿈치 관절의 최대 굴곡을 통한 단축성 운동과 최대 신전을 통한 신장성 운동을 수행하였다. 획득한 근전도 신호는 시간 영역과 주파수 영역에서 Integrated EMG(IEMG)와 Mean Power Frequency(MNF)로 분석하였다. 단축성 운동과 신장성 운동 모두에서 이두근과 삼두근의 IEMG는 증가하였고 MNF는 감소하는 경향을 보였다. 하지만 근 피로지수는 운동 방법에 따라 근의 길이가 신장되는 부위에서 더 높게 나타났다. 이러한 결과는 단축성 운동과 신장성 운동에서 근의 피로는 이두근과 삼두근에서 모두 일어나며 근의 길이 변화가 근의 피로에 영향을 미치는 것으로 사료된다.

본 연구의 목적은 고정자장에서 이중원관내 인가자장의 방향 변화에 따른 자성유체의 열유동 특성에 관하여 실험적으로 연구하는 것이다. 이를 위하여 이중원관 내부원관은 $30^{\circ}C$로 유지하고 외부원관은 $25^{\circ}C$로 유지하였으며, 자성유체가 담겨져 있는 중앙관에 고정자장을 상하 좌우의 4방향으로 인가하였다. 인가자장은 영구자석 4개를 이용하여 이중원관 전체로 균일하게 인가하였고, 이중원관내 자성유체는 인가자장의 방향에 따라 열유동 특성이 변화였다. 결과적으로 인가자장을 상측면에서 인가하였을 경우 중력의 영향이 감소하는 방향으로 열확산이 이루어졌으며, 반대로 인가자장을 하측면에서 인가하였을 경우 외견상 중력에 자기 체적력이 추가되어 열확산이 촉진됨을 알 수 있다.

The power production using hub height wind speed tends to be overestimated than actual power production. It is because the hub height wind speed cannot represent vertical wind shear and blade tip loss that aerodynamics characteristic on the wind turbine. The commercial CFD model WindSim is used to compare and analyze each power production. A classification of atmospheric stability is accomplished by Monin-Obukhov length. The concentric wind speed constantly represents low value than horizontal equivalent wind speed or hub height wind speed, and also relevant to power production. The difference between hub height wind speed and concentric equivalent wind speed is higher in nighttime than daytime. Under the strongly convective state, power production is lower than under the stable state, especially using the concentric equivalent wind speed. Using the concentric equivalent wind speed considering vertical wind shear and blade tip loss is well estimated to decide suitable area for constructing wind farm.

This paper investigates the effect of prolonged high temperature exposure on concentric laminated $Al_2O_3-ZrO_2$ composites. An ultrafine scale microstructure with a cellular 7 layer concentric lamination with unidirectional alignment was fabricated by a multi-pass extrusion method. Each laminate in the microstructure was $2-3{\mu}m$ thick. An alternate lamina was composed of 75%$Al_2O_3$-(25%m-$ZrO_2$) and t-$ZrO_2$ ceramics. The composite was sintered at $1500^{\circ}C$ and subjected to $1450^{\circ}C$ temperature for 24 hours to 72 hours. We investigated the effect of long time high temperature exposure on the generation of residual stress and grain growth and their effect on the overall stability of the composites. The residual stress development and its subsequent effect on the microstructure with the edge cracking behavior mechanism were investigated. The residual stress in the concentric laminated microstructure causes extensive micro cracks in the t-$ZrO_2$ layer, despite the very thin laminate thickness. The material properties like Vickers hardness and fracture toughness were measured and evaluated along with the microstructure of the composites with prolonged high temperature exposure.

The aim of this study is to develop a semi-analytical method to investigate fluid-structure coupling of concentric double shells with different lengths and elastic behaviours. Co-axial shells constitute a cylindrical circular container and a baffle submerged inside the stored fluid. The container shell is made of functionally graded materials with mechanical properties changing through its thickness continuously. The baffle made of steel is fixed along its top edge and submerged inside fluid such that its lower edge freely moves. The developed approach is verified using a commercial finite element computer code. Although the model is presented for a specific case in the present work, it can be generalized to investigate coupling of shell-plate structures via fluid. It is shown that the coupling between concentric shells occurs only when they vibrate in a same circumferential mode number, n. It is also revealed that the normalized vibration amplitude of the inner shell is about the same as that of the outer shell, for narrower radial gaps. Moreover, the natural frequencies of the fluid-coupled system gradually decrease and converge to the certain values as the gradient index increases.

The exact diagnosis of left ventricular hypertrophy (LVH) is very important in the treatment of hypertension. The purpose of our study is to determine the relationship between left ventricular remodeling patterns and electrocardiography (ECG) findings in hypertensive patients. We divided 137 patients into four groups according to left ventricular mass index (LVMI) and the relative wall thickness: normal, concentric remodeling, concentric hypertrophy, eccentric hypertrophy. LVH on the ECG was defined by three ECG criteria: Sokolow-Lyon voltage criteria, Cornell voltage criteria and Romhilt-Estes point score. LVH on the echocardiography was defined by LVMI. The prevalence of ECG LVH was increased in concentric hypertrophy and eccentric hypertrophy group. The QRS voltages by Sokolow-Lyon voltage criteria (r = 0.494, P = 0.002) and Cornell voltage criteria (r = 0.628, P < 0.001), and Romhilt-Estes point score (r = 0.689, P < 0.001) were positively correlated with LVMI. Also, the QRS voltages and point scores were significantly increased in the concentric hypertrophy and eccentric hypertrophy group with increased LVMI. The QRS voltage and Romhilt-Estes point scores were positively correlated with LVMI. The QRS voltages and Romhilt-Estes point scores were also increased in the left ventricular remodeling groups with increased LVMI.

Effect of Convex Surface Curvature on the Onset of Nucleate Boiling of Subcooled Fluid Flow in Vertical Concentric Annuli An experimental study has been carried out to investigate the effect of the transverse convex surface curvature of core tubes on heat transfer in concentric annular tubes. Water is used as the working fluid. Three annuli having a different radius of the inner cores, Ri=3.18mm, 6.35mm, and 12.70mm with a fixed ratio of Ri/Ro=0.5 are used over a range of the Reynolds number between about 40,000 and 80,000. The inner cores are made of smooth stainless steel tubes and heated electrically to provide constant heat fluxes throughout the whole length of each test section. Experimental result shows that heat flux values on the onset of nucleate boiling of the smaller inner diameter model is much higher than that of the larger size test model.
