An experimental study in a recirculating water channel was carried out to investigate the effect of large coherent structures to the skin friction on a flat plate. Particle Image Velocimetry (PIV) technique was used to quantify characteristic features of coherent structures growing to the boundary layer. In the PIV measurement, it is difficult to calculate the friction velocity near the wall region due to laser deflection and uncertainty so that Clauser fitting method at the logarithmic region was adopted to compute the friction velocity and compared with the one directly measured by the dynamometer. With changing the free-stream velocity from 0.5 m/s to 1.0 m/s, the activity of coherent structures in the logarithmic region was increased over three times in terms of Reynolds stress. The flow field was separated by Variable Interval Time Averaging (VITA) technique into the weak and the strong structure case depending on the existence large coherent structures in order to validate its effectiveness. The stream-wise velocity fluctuation was scanned through at the boundary thickness whether it had a large deviation from background flow. With coherent structures connected from near-wall to the boundary layer, mean wall shear stress was higher than that of weak structure case. Proper Orthogonal Decomposition (POD) analysis was also applied to compare the energy budget between them at each free-stream velocity.

This study is the quasi-experimental study on the gait training rehabilitation. The purpose of this study is to prepare the baseline data for most suitable of gait while we were scrutinizing how the walking characters, functional walking ability, gait quality of stroke patients were affected by the gait on BWSTT (Body Weight Supported Treadmill Training) through the change of treadmill velocity and body weight support. To accomplish this purpose, this study used thirty subjects, more than 3 months post stroke, for rehabilitation who were divided between two gait training groups they received the neurophysiological physical therapy. For 6 weeks, 5 times a week for 15 minutes per session, the BWSTT group participated in 30 sessions structured speed-dependent treadmill training with 30% body weight supported, and the ratio of body weight support was gradually decreased as the patients advanced the capability of more self-support. The OGT(Over Ground Training) group received the same quantity of equal sessions like BWSTT. Firstly, we measured the absolute improvement of walking velocity (m/s), capacity(min/m) and cadence(steps/min) among walking characters. Secondly, we measured the functional walking ability such as Functional Ambulatory Category(FAC, score out of 5), Modified Motor Assesment Scale(MMAS, score out of 6) and Gait Quality Chart(score out of 41). Data analysis was performed with using SPSS 10.0 win program. The descriptive analysis was used to obtain average and standard deviation. The independent t-test and the paired t-test were used to compare both the groups about pre and post training test. Treatment effects were established by pre and post assessment. Subjects tolerated the training well without side-effects. Therefore, the results of this study were as follows; 1. There was a more significant difference from the improvement of walking velocity(0.09m/s), endurance(4.53min/m), cadence(4.20steps/min), FAC(0.26score), MMAS(0.33 score) and hip joint and pelvic of gait quality(0.39 score) ever before in the BWSTT group(p<.05). 2. There was a more significant increase from the walking velocity(0.01m/s) in the OGT group(p<.05). 3. There was a more statistical significant increase from comparing the average of walking velocity in both groups ever before(0.42m/s in BWSTT group and 0.31m/s in OGT group)(p<.05). There was a statistical significant difference from the average of cadence in both groups(61.87step/min in BWSTT group and 3.60steps/min in OGT group)(p<.05). As we can see from above, the findings suggest that BWSTT may be more effective than the OGT for improving some gait parameters such as gait velocity and cadency. This conclusion also suggest that BWSTT is more effective for the improvement of gait of stroke patients.

최근 수문관측의 측정 인력과 비용의 절감과 측정 정확도를 높이기 위해 초음파를 이용한 ADCP 유량 측정 방법의 적용이 활발하게 이루어지고 있으며 점점 그 비중이 높아지고 있다. 하지만 ADCP의 유속 및 수심 측정 정확도에 대한 자료가 부족하여 ADCP 측정 결과에 대한 신뢰도를 확신하기 어렵다. 이에 본 연구에서는 직선하천에서 체계적이고 정밀한 측정을 통해 ADCP의 유속 및 수심 정확도를 분석하였다. ADCP의 유속 측정 정확도를 분석하기 위해 횡단면에 184개의 측점에서 측정한 ADV 유속 측정 결과와 ADCP의 유속 측정 결과를 비교하여 오차를 계산하였다. 그 결과 바닥을 기준으로 수심비(y/h)가 0.4~0.8 범위에서는 ADCP가 정확하게 유속을 측정하는 것으로 나타났으나, 수면 근처에서는 유속을 작게 측정하였고, 하상 근처에서는 유속을 크게 측정하여 정확도가 떨어지는 것을 확인하였다. 또한 ADCP의 수심 정확도를 분석한 결과 하상추적(bottom tracking) 방식이 약 6%의 오차를 보였고, 연직 빔(vertical beam) 방식이 약 9%의 오차를 보여 식생이 활착한 자연하천의 경우 하상추적 방식이 좀 더 정확하게 수심을 측정하는 것으로 확인하였다. 그리고 고정 측정 방법과 이동 측정 방법의 차이를 검토한 결과 두 방법 모두 유사한 정확도를 나타냈다. 이와 같은 연구 결과는 향후 ADCP의 측정 불확도 평가를 위한 기초 자료로 활용한다면 ADCP를 하천에 적용함에 있어 좀 더 정확한 유속 및 수심 측정이 가능할 것으로 기대된다.

본 연구에서는 설마천 유역에서 관측된 여러 강우-유출사상을 분석하여, 각 사상마다 GIUH의 특성속도를 추정하고, 이를 분석하여 그 변동특성을 살펴보았다. 특히, 본 연구에서는 강우의 특성에 따른 특성속도의 변화에 초점을 맞추어 분석하였다. 설마천 유역의 순간단위도는 HEC-1모형을 이용하여 유도하였으며, 이렇게 유도된 순간 단위도의 첨두유량과 첨두시간을 GIUH의 그것과 비교함으로서 특성속도가 계산될 수 있도록 하였다. 각 강우사상별 특성속도는 GcIUH 및 강우의 여러 특성과 비교분석하였다. 이 과정을 통하여 얻은 결과를 정리하면 다음과 같다. (1) GIUH의 특성속도는 GcIUH의 그것보다 변동정도가 크고 아울러 약간 크게 산정되었으나 그 경향은 유사한 것으로 파악되었다. (2) 총유효우량(또는, 평균유효우량)이 GIUH의 특성속도를 상대적으로 잘 설명함을 파악할 수 있었다. 이는 회귀분석의 결과로 나타나는데 그 결정계수가 0.6 전후로 크게 나타났다. (3) 반대로 강우의 지속 기간이나 최대강우강도는 GIUH의 특성속도를 결정하는데 큰 영향을 끼치지 못하고 있음을 파악하였다. 회귀분석 결과 결정계수는 최대 0.3을 넘지 않았다. (4) 본 연구에서 분석한 강우사상들의 경우 GIUH의 특성속도의 분포가 평균 0.402m/s 표준편차0.173 m/s인 정규분포를 따르는 것으로 나타났으며, 주로 0.4∼0.5 m/s 사이에 대부분의 값이 위치하는 것으로 나타났다. 그 변동계수는 0.43정도로 유출의 경우(대략 1.0 정도)에 비해 훨씬 적은 변동특성을 나타냄을 확인할 수 있었다.

The purpose of this study was to provide information about kinematic variables of the gliding and delivery motion of Hyung-Keun Lee, a high school shot putter who was ranked 1st at the 2011 National Sports Festivals. Three-Dimensional motion analysis using a system of 4 video cameras at a sampling frequency of 60 Hz was conducted during shot-putting events at the 2011 National Sports Festivals. During the gliding and delivery phase of the player the results showed following characteristics; 1) The gliding technique types of the player appeared to be the short-long technique as the gliding and stance length ratio were $42.3{\pm}3.87$ % and $57.7{\pm}3.87$ %, respectively. In addition, the trajectory of shots during the gliding and delivery phase showed different trajectory patterns with "S-shaped" type of elite players due to the deviation from a central axis of the APSS (athletic-plus shot system). 2) The horizontal velocity of COG made from gliding should maintain the velocity during transition and release phase, but the player showed a small momentum for a gradual decrease of velocity. 3) Therefore, the player requires to adjust an appropriate ratio between gliding and stance length with a strong muscle power at the trunk, throwing arm, and the lower extremity during gliding and delivery phase.

Background: Fatigue has a strong impact on workers' performance and safety, but expedient methods for assessing fatigue on the job are not yet available. Studies discuss posturography as an indicator of fatigue, but further evidence for its use in the workplace is needed. The purpose of the study is to examine whether posturography is a suitable indicator of fatigue in clerical workers. Methods: Thirty-six employees (${\emptyset}$ 34.8 years, standard deviation = 12.5) participated in postural tasks (eyes open, eyes closed, arm swinging, and dual task) in the morning and afternoon. Position of their center of pressure (COP) was registered using a Nintendo Wii Balance Board and commercial software. From registered COP time series, we calculated the following parameters: path length (mm), velocity (mm/s), anterior-posterior variance (mm), mediolateral variance (mm), and confidence area ($mm^2$). These parameters were reduced to two orthogonal factors in a factor analysis with varimax rotation. Results: Statistical analysis of the first factor (path length and velocity) showed a significant effect of time of day: COP moved along a shorter path at a lower velocity in the afternoon compared with that in the morning. There also was a significant effect of task, but no significant interaction. Conclusion: Data suggest that postural stability of clerical workers was comparable in the morning and afternoon, but COP movement was greater in the morning. Within the framework of dynamic systems theory, this could indicate that the postural system explored the state space in more detail, and thus was more ready to respond to unexpected perturbations in the morning.

An electromagnetic flowmeter(EMF) essentially averages the velocity distribution over the pipe cross- sectional area, and the measured value is dependent on the velocity profiles. In this study, installation effects of 90$^{\circ}$long elbow(KS B 1522, ISO 3419) on the EMF characteristics was investigated. A commercial EMF was adopted and the distribution of magnetic field in the electrodes cross section was measured. In the experiment, the national flow standard system, of which measurement uncertainty was evaluated in accordance with ISO 17025 recommendation, was used fur characterization of EMF. The leading line has 150D long straight pipe to established a fully developed flow before entering into the elbow and the elbow was installed downstream of it. then the flowmeter was tested within 50 D from the elbow. The installation effects of the flowmeter were investigated by varying the mean velocity(Reynolds No.)in pipe section, the locations and the direction of electrodes plane.($\phi$) From the experimental results, we find the optimal conditions to get most accurate measurements. Generally, the deviations from the calibration value were less than 0.5 % in farther than 10D distance from the elbow and the direction of electrode plane. $\phi$ = 90$^{\circ}$yielded the smallest measurement deviation. These characteristics were shown consistently in turbulent region regardless of the mean Reynolds number.

본 논문에서는 몸체진동형 링레이저 자이로에서 몸체진동을 검출하기 위한 각속도 센서 출력을 V-F 변환하여 링레이저 출력에서 몸체진동에 의한 출력을 제거하는 dither-stripping 방법에 대하여 논의하였다. Dither-stripping에서는 V-F 출력펄스와 링레이저 출력펄스간의 환산계수를 산출하는 방법과 V-F 출력펄스의 offset를 보정해주는 방법이 중요하다. 각속도 센서의 출력을 V-F 변환하여 dither-stripping하는 경우에는 offset을 보정하는 과정에서 몸체진동의 진폭잡음에 의한 자이로 출력의 오차가 크게 발생한다. 우리는 V-F 출력펄스를 미분하여 offset을 제거하는 방법을 고안하였다. 이를 위해서는 각속도 센서의 출력을 90deg 위상 이동시켜서 각도신호를 만들고 V-F 변환해야 하며 링레이저 출력의 위상도 샘플링의 반주기만큼 이동시켜야 한다. 그리고 두 펄스간의 환산계수는 분산을 이용하여 산출하였다. 이러한 각도신호 미분방식의 dither-stripping에 의하여 개선된 결과를 얻을 수 있었다.
