Objectives The present study was designed to analyze the posture pattern of healthy right-handed male and to investigate the effect of Chuna treatment. Methods Twenty healthy right-handed male were selected in this study. Body posture was measured by Body $Style^{(R)}$. After that, subjects received Chuna treatment on lumbar and pelvis area. Finally, the 2nd measurement was carried out. Results In shoulder height, left shoulder was higher than right one. In pelvic height, right iliac crest was higher than left, followed by longer right leg than left. In lower limb angle suggesting valgus or varus knee. In height of scapula inferior angle, right seemed higher than left. After the Chuna treatment, shoulder height, pelvic height, and leg length difference showed significant improvement. Other variables showed improvement but it was not significant. Conclusions These results suggest that right-handed male have some characteristic posture pattern because of their daily life habits, and Chuna treatment can be effective in correcting bad posture.

The effect of tip gap height on heat/mass transfer characteristics on the floor of cavity squealer tip has been investigated in a turbine cascade for power generation by employing the naphthalene sublimation technique. The squealer rim height is chosen to be an optimal one of $h_{st}/c$ = 5.51% for the tip gap height-to-chord ratios of h/c = 1.0, 2.0, 3.0 and 4.0%. The results show that heat transfer on the cavity floor is strongly dependent upon the behavior of the cavity flow falling down onto the floor. For lower h/c, the floor heat transfer is influenced by the tip leakage flow falling down along the inner face of the suction-side squealer, whereas the floor heat transfer for higher h/c is augmented mainly due to the impingement of leakage flow on the floor near the leading edge. Compared to the plane tip surface heat transfer, the cavity floor heat transfer is less influenced by h/c. For h/c = 1.0%, the average thermal load is as low as a half of the plane tip surface one, and the difference in the thermal load between the two cases tends to decrease with increasing h/c.

The earth is a huge magnet. All organisms live under the magnetism of earth. The magnetism influences the ions in the cells of organisms and variously functions to lives as well. The medical treatment with magnet has come down from the ancient, it has an effect on the plants' growth. But there are no scientific studies about the influences of magnetism on plant growth. Accordingly, the experiment about the influence of magnetism on several foliage plants was carried out in this study. The promotion of plants' growth led by magnetism will be the method to save the management cost of horticultural market by early shipment. As a results of this experiment, plants treated with magnets showed excellent growth especially in length growth. The experiment results of the respective plants are the following. 1. Rhapis flabelliformis : This have grown so very well in the container lined with magnets as time goes by. Showing the significant(p<0.05) differences, the length growth of Height and Length of leaves was especially distinguished. 2. Howea belmoreana : This has grown well in all containers. Showing the significant(p<0.05) differences, the length growth of Height and Length of leaves was especially distinguished. 3. Chamaedorea seifrizii : There have been the growth differences between Height and Length of leaves as time goes by. The growth of Height and Length of leaves in the container lined with magnets has been excellent. The number of leaves and number of branch generally had no big differences but the growth of Height and Length of leaves was excellent in the magnet container. The method of plant growth promotion with magnet should save the management cost for this reason. Therefore the succeeding studies about the plant growth under the influence of magnet intensity and kind must be performed. The studies with various plants are needed to activate the program for growing plants with magnet.

본 연구에서는 월파조건에서 직립구조물을 따른 연파특성을 평면수조에서 수리실험을 통해 검토하였으며, 실험에 사용된 파랑은 Bretschneider-Mitsuyasu 주파수 스펙트럼을 가지는 일방향 불규칙파이다. 주된 내용은 상대여유고(R)의 변화에 따른 파고저감을 검토하는 것이며, 월파조건과 비월파조건에서의 파고계측 실험결과를 비교하였다. 상대여유고가 작아질수록 월파의 증대로 인해 상대유의파고는 감소하였으나, 연파 폭의 변화는 거의 나타나지 않았다. 그리고 본 실험조건내에서 상대여유고가 1보다 큰 경우는 월파에 의한 파고저감효과가 거의 없는 것으로 나타났으며, R =0.5인 경우는 R =1.5인 경우에 비해 구조물 전면의 파고가 약 10% 저감되는 것으로 나타났다.

Background and Objectives This study was performed to evaluate the long-term effect of adenotonsillectomy on childhood growth by examining preoperative growth status and presenting symptoms. Subjects and Method One hundred and four patients who underwent adenotonsillectomy from January to December 2009 were enrolled in this study. Clinical data were collected from medical record reviews and through the administered questionnaire. We investigated symptoms and growth changes during 5 years following the surgery. Results The mean age of patients was $6.0{\pm}1.94$ years (range, 3-10), with the male to female ratio of 62:42. Pre-operative symptoms were significantly improved after the surgery. The mean pre-operative height and weight percentiles were $53.6{\pm}27.4$ and $59.6{\pm}29.2$ at initial evaluation, and $67.1{\pm}26.4$ and $59.6{\pm}28.6$ at 5 years post adenotonsillectomy (p<0.001, p=0.989), respectively. An increase in height percentile was more prominent in patients whose pre-operative height percentile was less than 50 compared to those with a percentile of 50 or more (p<0.001). Weight percentile was significantly increased in those with the pre-operative weight percentile of less than 50 and decreased in patients with a percentile of 50 or more. Conclusion Adenotonsillectomy has a positive effect on height growth in children with adenotonsillar hypertrophy, especially in patients whose height percentile is less than 50. Weight gain also can be expected in preoperative low-weight children.

Objective: The main purpose of this study was to investigate the effects of wearing an ankle weight belt while performing gait in water by focusing on the effect of using ankle weights have on the gait kinematics and the muscle activities for developing optimum training strategies. Method: A total of 10 healthy male university students were recruited for the study. Each participant was instructed to perform 3 gait conditions; normal walking over ground, walking in water chest height, and walking in water chest height while using ankle weights. All walking conditions were set at control speed of $4km/h{\pm}0.05km/h$. The depth of the swimming pool was at 1.3 m, approximately chest height. The motion capture data was recorded using 6 digital cameras and the EMG was recorded using waterproof Mini Wave. From the motion capture data, the following variables were calculated for analysis; double and single support phase (s), swing phase (s), step length (%height), step rate (m/s), ankle, knee, and hip joint angles ($^{\circ}$). From the electromyography the %RVC of the lower limb muscles medial gastrocnemius, rectus femoris, erector spinae, semitendinosus, tibialis anterior, vastus lateralis oblique was calculated. Results: The results show significant differences between the gait time, and step length between the right and left leg. Additionally, the joint angular velocities and gait velocity were significantly affected by the water resistance. As expected, the use of the ankle weights increased all of the lower leg maximum muscle activities except for the lower back muscle. Conclusion: In conclusion, the ankle weights can be shown to stimulate more muscle activity during walking in chest height water and therefore, may be useful for rehabilitation purposes.

The numerical model for prediction of longshore current with set-up/down effect on a plane beach is developed using the longshore component of the depth-integrated momentum balance equation. To predict the longshore current, the wave height model should first be formulated because the longshore current depends on the wave height directly. Two wave model, regular wave model and random wave model, are developed based on the energy flux balance equation. Also, the numerical model estimating the set-up inside the shoreline is developed using both the on-offshore momentum equation and the moving boundary technique. The numerical models are verified by the analytical solution, and compared with laboratory data. It is found from the comparison that developed models may be predicted accurately the longshore current with set-up/down effect on a plane beach.

Effect of the liquid circulation velocity on the biofilm development was investigated in an inverse fluidized bed biofilm reactor(IFBBR). To observe the effect of the influent COD concentration on biofilm simultaneously, the influent COD value was adjusted to 1000mg/1 f for 1st reactor, and 2500mg/l for 2nd reactor. The liquid circulation velocity was adjusted by controlling the initial liquid height. As the liquid circulation velocity was decreased, the settling amount of biomass was increased and the amount of effluent biomass was decreased. Since the friction of liquid was decreased by the decrease of liquid circulation velocity, the biofilm thickness was increased and the biofilm dry density was decreased. In the 1st reactor the SCOD removal efficiency was constant regardless of the variation of the liquid circulation velocity, but it was increased by the decrease of the liquid circulation velocity because of more biomass population in 2nd reactor.

In order to investigate the effect of flange wrinkling on the wall break of a deep drawn rectangular cup, experiments and simulation were done. The effect of the wrinkling height on drawing force and wall break for a moving blank holder system with spacer were studied by setting a fixed clearance between the drawing die and the blank holder. Simulation and experimental results showed that wall break could be provoked by the flange wrinkling. As the wrinkling height increased, the punch force grew. The maximum punch force was obtained at its final stage of stroke.

A wing operating in close proximity to the ground exhibits a reduction in induced drag, which increase the lift/drag ratio. The poert-augmented ram (RAR) phenomenon involves directiing the efflux from forward mounted propulsion ststem under the wings, with the efflux nearly stagnated under the wings. In the present paper, 3 dimentional PAR was numerically studied by solving the Navier-Stokes equations. Pressure distribution and velocity vectors are calculated around the wing surface and the ground. Through the numerical simulation, Cp values and lift/drag ratio are carefully reviewed by changing the height/chord; 0.05, 0.1, 0.3 and 0.8. The shape of model is NACA 0012 with a span/chord ratio of 3.0. According to the numerical results, the relationship between lift/drag and height/chord is fairly reasonable.
