Purpose: The purpose of this study was to investigate the differences in simple radiographic parameters and results of 3-D scan among normal and patient groups. Materials and Methods: Seventy subjects in each group were studied. Control group consisted of subjects without plantar foot pain (normal group), and two patient groups were one with plantar forefoot pain (metatarsalgia group), the other with plantar heel pain (heel pain group). Simple radiographic parameters were obtained and 3-D scan was done with foot scanner (Nexscan, K&I, Korea) and The height and volumn of the space under the medial longitudinal arch was analyzed (Enfoot, K&I, Korea). These parameters were compared and correlation between radiological parameters and results of the 3-D scan were studied. Results: The results of all parameters istributed normally. There was no signigicant differences among the groups in radiological parameters (talo-first metatarsal angle, calcaneal pitch angle and height of the talar head in standing lateral radiograph) and arch height and arch volumn on 3-D scan. There were statistically significant correlations between radiological and 3-D scan results. Conclusion: This study revealed that there is no significant differences in medial longitudinal arch height and volumn among normal and different patient groups and there are variety of arch height in patients with similar symptoms.

본 연구의 목적은 인솔구두의 굽 높이에 따른 평발을 가진 20대 대학생의 보행 시 발목관절의 각도변화에 대해 융복합적 비교를 하는 것이다. 15명의 대학생을 대상으로 동작분석기(Qualisys Track Manager)를 이용하였다. 인솔이 장착된 기능성 구두를 제작하고, 구두의 굽 높이를 0cm, 3cm와 7cm로 셋팅하였다. 실험대상자들은 두 개의 굽 높이가 있는 구두를 신고 발목관절의 측면에 반사마커를 부착하여 보행을 실시하였다. 보행입각기에서 발목관절의 각도변화를 측정하였다. 평발을 가진 실험대상자가 인솔구두를 착용 시 구두 굽 높이가 높을수록 양측의 Heel strike, Foot flat, Midstance, Toe off에서 유의한 감소가 나타났다. 따라서 평발을 가진 대상자는 인솔구두를 착용 시 낮은 구두를 신어야만 발바닥의 피로를 감소시켜 편안한 보행을 할 것으로 사료된다.

본 연구의 목적은 젊은 여성을 대상으로 구두 굽 높이에 따라 한다리 서기 자세를 수행하는 동안 배곧은근, 척추세움근, 넙다리곧은근, 뒤넙다리근의 근활성도를 비교하기 위해 연구를 실시하였다. 본 연구는 건강한 20대 여성 20명을 대상으로 0cm, 3cm, 7cm 의 각각 다른 높이의 굽이 있는 구두를 착용하고 안정한 지지면 위에서 정적 균형검사 중 하나인 오른쪽 다리로 한다리 서기를 하는 동안 표면 근전도 장비를 이용하여 오른쪽 배곧은근, 척추세움근, 넙다리곧은근, 뒤넙다리근의 근활성도를 측정하여 비교 분석하였으며 연구 결과 척추세움근과 넙다리곧은근의 근활성도는 굽높이가 증가함에 따라 유의한 증가가 있었고(p<0.05), 배곧은근, 뒤넙다리근의 근활성도는 유의한 차이가 없었다(p>0.05). 구두 굽 높이의 증가는 척추세움근 및 넙다리곧은근의 근활성도를 증가시키며 이로 인한 허리 앞굽음과 골반의 앞쪽 기울임 증가는 신체분절의 위치나 무게 중심의 변화를 일으켜 허리 골반 부위 및 엉덩관절, 무릎관절에 근골격계 통증과 같은 문제를 일으킬 수 있을 것이다.

This paper is concerned with the mutual relationship among interpressure, last. foot within a new shoe and foot within a fifty-hour-used shoe at the standing posture at three different heel-heights 1. The interrelationship between the heel-heights and interpressure is very significant at the level of $0.1\%$. The heel-heights cause high interpressure at different parts of foot; heel point and big toe point in a 3 cm-heel shoe, big toe point and heel outside joint point in a 5 cm-heel shoe, and little toe point, heel-outside joint point, and arch point in a 7 cm-heel shoe. 2. Foot girth and foot width measurements either within a new shoe or within a fifty-hour-used shoe significant at the level of $5\%,\;1\%,\;0.1\%$ and show discrepancies at three different heel heights; the part between instep and ball joint in a 3 cm-heel shoe, toe part in a 5 cm-heel shoe, heel-inside joint. heel-outside joint and toe part in a 7 cm-heel shoe are highly influenced by heel heights. The higher the shoe-hee15 are, the more heavily the fore part of foot is pressured in lateral direction because shoe is made to have high instep from a fashion viewpoint. Higher shoe heels prevent weight pressure from being concentrated on heel. If shoe heels are toe high, people in such shoes feel easily tired. It is very worthy of note in selecting shoes to consider not only the shoe fashion but also fore shoe type, heel height, and shoe material with proper elasticity.

This study aimed to investigate the effect of differing heel heights on the electromyographic (EMG) activity in vastus medialis (VM) and vastus lateralis (VL) during stair ascending and descending activities. A total of 26 healthy women volunteered to perform stair-ascending and stair-descending tasks with 3 heel heights: barefoot, 3 cm, and 7 cm. The EMG activities of the VM and VL were recorded during the tasks. During the stair ascending and descending tasks, the EMG activities of both VM and VL significantly changed with differing the heel heights (p<.05). Moreover, the EMG activities of VM and VL during the stair ascending task were significantly higher than the corresponding values during the stair-descending task (p<.05). However, there were no significant differences between the VM:VL EMG ratios for the 3 heel heights (p>.05). The VM:VL EMG ratios between the 2 tasks differed significantly in the 7 cm high heel condition (p<.05). Despite an increase in the EMG activities in both VM and VL during stair ascending and descending tasks, there was no change in the relative EMG intensities of VM and VL, which was measured by calculating the VM:VL ratio this result indicates that no VM:VL imbalances were elicited. The relative EMG intensities of VM and VL during stair descent were lower than the corresponding values during the ascent, suggesting that VM and VL may show an imbalance in the eccentric activation during the weight-acceptance phase. This study provides useful information that will facilitate future research on how heel height affects muscle activity around the knee joint.

In this paper, an efficient method for generating 5-axis cutting data for a turbine blade is presented. The interference elimination of 5-axis cutting currently is very complicated, and it takes up a lot of time. The proposed method can generate an interference-free tool path, within an allowance range. Generating the cutting data just point to the cutting process and using it to obtain NC data by calculating the feed rate, allows us to maintain the proper feed rate of the 5-axis machine. This paper includes the algorithms for: (1) CL data generation by detecting an interference-free heel angle, (2) finding the optimal tool path interval considering the cusp-height, (3) finding the adaptive feed rate values for each cutter path, and (4) the inverse kinematics depending on the structure of the 5-axis machine, for generating the NC data.

본 연구에서는 여러 굽 높이의 신발을 신고 보행하는 동안 발/발목 복합체의 roll-over 모양을 분석하였다. 본 연구를 위해서 근골격계 및 발 질환이 없는 15명의 건강한 성인 여성들을 대상으로 보행분석을 수행하였고, 실험에는 굽 높이가 다른 4종의 신발을 사용하였다. 보행분석 시 roll-over의 특성을 구하기 위해 초기접지기부터 반대발 초기접지기까지의 발목 및 무릎의 반사마커 궤적과 지면반발력의 압력중심 데이터를 이용하였다. 연구결과로 굽 높이가 증가할수록 roll-over의 모양은 원위방향으로 이동하고 그 특성은 굽 높이에 상관없이 일정한 형태로 관찰되었다. 또한, 6cm이하의 신발에서는 roll-over의 곡률중심이 수직방향으로 이동함으로써 일정한 roll-over 특성을 유지하도록 발/발목 복합체에서 자동으로 적응함을 알 수 있었다. 그러나 그 이상의 굽 높이의 신발에서는 발목관절만으로 충분한 균형을 보장할 수 없으므로 무릎 및 엉덩관절의 보상작용이 동시에 일어남을 알 수 있었다. Roll-over 특성에 대한 본 연구결과는 인간 보행의 보다 간단하고 넓은 이해를 제공할 것이고, 나아가 의지 또는 보조기와 같은 재활기기의 보다 넓은 이해를 제공할 수 있을 것으로 기대된다.

Effect of the joint details on the stress distribution over a slot structure has been studied in order to improve its fatigue life using a finite element analysis. The joint details of interest are the radius and height of scallop at the stiffener as well as the mis-alignment between the stiffener and longitudinal member. For a slot structure currently used, the stiffener heel is subjected to the maximum stress for a given external load, where is a potential fatigue crack initiation site. The stresses at the stiffener heel and toe decrease both by increasing the scallop radius and more significantly by increasing the mis-alignment while no notable effect of the scallop height on it is appreciated. A proper combination of these factors makes it possible to reduce the stresses at the stiffener heel and In, theoretically, more than 50%. This is attributed to the modification of the stress distribution over the slot structure including the transition of the maximum stressed region from the stiffener heel to the slot surface of the transverse web. Such then results in a g[eat improvement of the fatigue life of the slot structure.

The purpose of this study was to analyse the effect of the drop height on lower extremity and lower back kinematics and kinetics during drop landing with the use of raised heel insole. Furthermore we investigated the change that occurred in our body. Joint ROM, eccentric work and contribution to total work were calculated in 11 male college students performing drop landing with 8 motion analysis cameras and 1 forceplate. The result were as follows. First, the ROM and eccentric work were increased in all joints with the increase of the drop height. Second, the ankle ROM and eccentric work were decreased with the use of the insole. Third, the use of the lower back was increased as the use of the ankle decreased with the insole. Based on these results, we can infer that putting on the insole may contribute to chronic injury. We recommend not to use the insole during physical activity.
