이 논문은 헤지펀드 등 금융기관들의 금융적 투기가 효율시장가설의 주장과 달리 상품시장의 가격변동과 왜곡을 발생시킬 수 있고, 따라서 이러한 시장에 대한 엄격한 규제가 필요하다는 것을 주장한다. 효율시장가설은 헤지펀드가 가격위험을 헤징하고 정확한 가격을 발견하는데 중요한 역할을 한다고 주장하지만, 이 글은 이와 반대로 선물시장에서 헤지펀드의 거래가 증가할수록 가격이 장기균형가격으로 수렴하는 속도가저하되는 등의 왜곡현상이 나타난다고 주장한다. 또한 선물시장에서의 투기적 거래가 역사적인 수준으로부터 크게 벗어나지 않았다는 주장과달리, 과잉투기(excessive speculation)가 존재하였으며 과잉투기를 이끈 헤지펀드 등에 의해 선물가격이 비정상적으로 폭등하였다. 선물시장에서의 가격폭등은 현물-선물등가법칙에 의해 곧바로 현물시장의 가격폭등을 유발시키고, 그 결과 경제 전체적으로 나쁜 영향을 주게 된다.

Energy is an essential driving force for modern society. In particular, electricity has become the standard source of power for almost every aspect of life. Electric power runs lights, televisions, cell phones, laptops, etc. However, it has become apparent that the current methods of producing this most valuable commodity combustion of fossil fuels are of limited supply and has become detrimental for the Earth's environment. It is also self-evident, given the fact that these resources are non-renewable, that these sources of energy will eventually run out. One of the most promising alternatives to the burning of fossil fuel in the production of electric power is the proton exchange membrane (PEM) fuel cell. The PEM fuel cell is environmentally friendly and achieves much higher efficiencies than a combustion engine. Water management is an important issue of PEM fuel cell operation. Water is the product of the electrochemical reactions inside fuel cell. If liquid water accumulation becomes excessive in a fuel cell, water columns will clog the gas flow channel. This condition is referred to as flooding. A number of researchers have examined the water removal methods in order to improve the performance. In this paper, a new water removal method that investigates the use of vibro-acoustic methods is presented. Piezo-actuators are devices to generate the flexural wave and are attached at end of a cathode bipolar plate. The "flexural wave" is used to impart energy to resting droplets and thus cause movement of the droplets in the direction of the traveling wave.

Concrete surfaces have weak surface strength due to bleeding and laitance, and problems such as peeling, cracking, and cracking may occur. In particular, underground parking lots can be said to be more vulnerable to peeling, breaking, and cracking if excessive loading of materials and equipment movement are not managed at the initial age after placing of concrete. Cracks, peeling, and cracking problems in slab concrete in underground parking lots of apartments can lead to leakage problems and affect finishing materials constructed on top of topping concrete, reducing the performance required for waterproof materials. Therefore, in this study, the bleeding and surface strength according to the standard of topping concrete and the use of admixture were reviewed to solve the crack, peeling, and cracking problems among the types of defects in underground parking lot slab concrete. As a result, it was derived that the optimal concrete compressive strength is 30MPa or more, and it is a reasonable performance design method to prohibit the substitution of admixtures.

Purpose: This study investigated the immediate biomechanical effects of unilateral mastication for 10 minutes on the temporomandibular joint (TMJ) with 21 healthy adult participants. Methods: The gum group chewed gum on the right side for 10 minutes, and the control group rested for 10 minutes. Biomechanical data were obtained using a three-dimensional infrared camera before and after intervention. An independent t-test assessed the variation of kinematic data to identify differences between before and after intervention. Results: Among biomechanical variables, the gum group's length of the left forehead middle region and the temporomandibular joint angle decreased compared to the control group (p<0.05). Conclusion: Caution with unilateral masticatory activity is recommended, as unilateral mastication causes biomechanical changes due to excessive load on the soft tissues of the contralateral TMJ.

This study has a purpose on contributing to apprehend safe and right way to stop to the inline skate beginners and to the instructors who teaches line skating on the basis for the result of the kinematical analysis on Heel brake stop movement of the inline skate, focusing on the displacement on COG, angle displacement of ankle joint, angle displacement of knee joint, angle displacement of hip joint, using a 3D image method by DLT. To achieve this goal, we analysed the kinematical factor of the 3 well-trained inline skating instructors and obtained the following results. 1. During the movement of heel-brake stop, when strong power was given to a stable and balanced stop and the lower limbs, if the physical centroid is lowered the stability increases, and if it is placed high from the base surface, as the stability decreases compared to the case of low physical centroid, we should make a stop by placing a physical centroid in the base surface and lowering the hight of physical centroid. 2. To make a stable and balanced stop and to provide a strong power to the lower limbs, it is advisable to make a stop by decreasing an angle displacement of ankle joint during a "down" movement. In case of the left ankle joint, in all events and phases the dorsiflexion angle showed a decrease. Nevertheless, in the case of the right ankle joint, the dorsiflexion angle shows an increase after a slight decrease. The dorsiflexion angle displacement of ankle joint can be diminished because of the brake pad of the rear axis frame of the right side inline skate by raising a toe, but cannot be more decreased if certain degree of an angle is made by a brake pad touching a ground surface. To provide a power to a brake pad, it is recommended to place a power by lowering a posture making the dorsiflexion angle of the left ankle joint relatively smaller than that of the right ankle. 3. To make a stable and balanced stop and to add a power to a brake pad, the power must be given to the lower limbs in lowering the hight of physical centroid. For this, it is recommended to make a down movement by decreasing the flexion angle of a knee joint and it is necessary to make a down movement by a regular decrease of the angle displacement of knee joint rather than a swift down movement in every event and phase. 4. The right angle displacement of hip joint is made by lowering vertically the hight of physical centroid as leaning slightly forward. If too narrow angle displacement of hip joint is made by leaning forward too much, the balance is lost during the stop by placing the center in front. To make a stable and balance stop and to place a strong power to the lower limbs, it is recommendable to make a narrow angle by lower the hip joint angle. However, excessive leaning of the upper body to make the angle too narrow, can cause an instable stop and loss of physical centroid. After this study, it is considered to assist the kinematical understanding during the heel brake stop movement of the inline skate, and, to present basic data in learning a method of stable and balanced stop for the inline skating beginners or for the inline skate instructors in the present situation of the complete absence of the study in inline skating.

Objective : The purpose of this study was to conduct biomechanical analysis of varying backpack loads on the lower limb movements during downhill walking over $-20^{\circ}$ ramp. Method : Thirteen male university students (age: $23.5{\pm}2.1yrs$, height: $175.7{\pm}4.6cm$, weight: $651.9{\pm}55.5N$) who have no musculoskeletal disorder were recruited as the subjects. Each subject walked over $20^{\circ}$ ramp with four different backpack weights (0%, 10%, 20% and 30% of body weight) in random order at a speed of $1.0{\pm}0.1m/s$. Five digital camcorders and two force plates were used to obtain 3-d data and kinetics of the lower extremity. For each trial being analyzed, five critical instants were identified from the video recordings. Ground reaction force, loading rate, decay rate, and resultant joint moment of the ankle and the knee were determined by the inverse dynamics analysis. For each dependent variable, one-way ANOVA with repeated measures was used to determine whether there were significant differences among four different backpack weight conditions (p<.05). When a significant difference was found, post hoc analyses were performed using the contrast procedure. Results : The results of this study showed that the medio-lateral GRFs at RHC in 20% and 30% body weight were significantly greater than the corresponding value in 0% of body weight. A consistent increase in the vertical GRFs as backpack loads increased was observed. The valgus joint movement of the knee at RTO in 30% body weight was significantly greater than the corresponding values in 0% and 10% body weight. The increased valgus moment of 30% body weight observed in this phase was associated with decelerating and stabilizing effects on the knee joint. The results also showed that the extension and valgus joint moments of the knee were systematically affected by the backpack load during downhill walking. Conclusion : Since downhill walking while carrying heavy external loads in a backpack may lead to excessive knee joint moment, damage can occur to the joint structures such as joint capsule and ligaments. Therefore, excessive repetitions of downhill walking should be avoided if the lower extremity is subjected to abnormally high levels of load over an extended period of time.

광양만에 분포하는 미고결 퇴적충의 물성특성을 Core 시료를 채취하여 분석하였다 퇴적상태의 특성을 지시하는 퇴적층의 공극율이 퇴적깊이에 따라 일정한 변화를 나타내지 않으며, 이는 자체하중에 의한 자연적 압밀이 매우 미세한 것을 나타내고 있다. 조석에 의한 해수면 변동이 퇴적층 거동에 미치는 영향을 수치해석적으로 분석한 결과, 퇴적층에 형성되는 공극수압이 이토층의 낮은 투수계수에 기인하여 해수면 변동에 따른 표층 수압변화보다 느리게 진행되고 있다. 따라서, 최소 해수면시점에 발생되는 공극수압이 해수압에 의한 역학적 응력보다 커서 퇴적층의 유효응력이 인장력으로 반전되며 일정깊이에서의 현장유효응력도 인장력상태(quick sand condition)인 것으로 나타난다. 이러한 현상은 퇴적물조직의 재구성이 내부적으로 발생될 수 있는 가능성을 제시해 주고 있다. 모래질이토층(sandy mud layer)이 이토층내에 존재할 경우에도 이토층과의 경계부분에서 인장력강태의 현장유효응력(quick sand condition)이 발생한다. 이는 퇴적물 재구성작용에 의해 모래질 입자가 표층에서 하부층으로 하강될 수 있는 역학적 이론근거를 제시해 주고 있으며, 본 연구결과에 의하면 모래질 입자들이 약 40cm 깊이에 하강될 때까지 quick sand condition이 형성된다.

The US railroad network carries 40% of the nation's total freight. Railroad bridges are the most critical part of the network infrastructure and, therefore, must be properly maintained for the operational safety. Railroad managers inspect bridges by measuring displacements under train crossing events to assess their structural condition and prioritize bridge management and safety decisions accordingly. The displacement of a railroad bridge under train crossings is one parameter of interest to railroad bridge owners, as it quantifies a bridge's ability to perform safely and addresses its serviceability. Railroad bridges with poor track conditions will have amplified displacements under heavy loads due to impacts between the wheels and rail joints. Under these circumstances, vehicle-track-bridge interactions could cause excessive bridge displacements, and hence, unsafe train crossings. If displacements during train crossings could be measured objectively, owners could repair or replace less safe bridges first. However, data on bridge displacements is difficult to collect in the field as a fixed point of reference is required for measurement. Accelerations can be used to estimate dynamic displacements, but to date, the pseudo-static displacements cannot be measured using reference-free sensors. This study proposes a method to estimate total transverse displacements of a railroad bridge under live train loads using acceleration and tilt data at the top of the exterior pile bent of a standard timber trestle, where train derailment due to excessive lateral movement is the main concern. Researchers used real bridge transverse displacement data under train traffic from varying bridge serviceability levels. This study explores the design of a new bridge deck-pier experimental model that simulates the vibrations of railroad bridges under traffic using a shake table for the input of train crossing data collected from the field into a laboratory model of a standard timber railroad pile bent. Reference-free sensors measured both the inclination angle and accelerations of the pile cap. Various readings are used to estimate the total displacements of the bridge using data filtering. The estimated displacements are then compared to the true responses of the model measured with displacement sensors. An average peak error of 10% and a root mean square error average of 5% resulted, concluding that this method can cost-effectively measure the total displacement of railroad bridges without a fixed reference.
