Since the strand-to-strand type joint far CICC (Cable-In-Conduit Conductor) is small in size and has low DC resistance, it is expected to be useful type fur a superconducting magnet system which had a compact structure like the KSTAR (Korea Superconducting Tokamak Advanced Research) coil system. The DC resistance is changed according to the distribution patterns of strands in cables connected together in the joint. A commercial code was used for the calculation of the DC resistance. With the decrease of outer diameter of the Joint, Which means the increase of strand volume fraction in the joint, the calculated DC resistance decrease rapidly and non-lineally. The variation of resistance depends mainly on the volume fraction of solder which has higher resistivity than copper. The resistance decrease inversely with the increase of the length of the joint. The resistance increase with increase of number of triplets in each stack contacted with that of another terminal cable. In case of the strand-to-strand joint that has 62mm of outer diameter, 52mm of inner diameter, 100mm of overlap length, and four triplets in each stack, the calculated DC resistance is less than 1 n-Ohm.

A small scale joint sample of Nb3Sn CICC was fabricated by sub-cable to sub-cable joining. This joint was produced by parallel insertion of one end of each sub-cable into the sub-cable space of the other side of cable, which can decrease the equivalent electrical resistance at the joint is expected to have average properties, dc resistance and ac losses, in view of the shapes of ITER type joint and strand to strand joint. The 3.8nOhm of dc resistance was measured in the range of 10-200A transport current. The normalized resistivity of the joint was about 6.7 $\mu}$Ohm-$^mm{2}$. Considering the normalized resistivity, the full scale joint prepared by sub-cable to sub-cable joining may have similar joint dc resistance with other conventional full scale joints with a shorter joining length.

The joints between the superconducting wires are inevitably needed from the requirement of a high magnetic stability with respect to time in the superconducting MRI magnet. In this study, a new superconducting joint using Cu/Nb-Ti sleeve has been tried on the MRI type Nb-Ti superconducting wires. The transformer induction type apparatus was made and applied to measure the joint resistance. A very low joint resistance of 10\ulcorner $\Omega$ could be successfully obtained from this joint method. It was confirmed that the initial rapid current decay occurs before the very stable current decay due to only superconducting joint. Some unstable part in the joint like exposed filaments causes the initial induced current to lower and influence on the increase of the joint resistance.

The joints with multi-interfaces was expected to have low DC resistance compared with those with single interface. The small size joint specimens joined with Nb3Sn sub-cables were fabricated to investi-gate the DC performance in the range of 0 to 600A transport current without external magnetic field. The joints with multi-interfaces have a few n-Ohm resistance, which is much lower than that of single lap joint. Because the interfaces between sub-cables of multi-interfaced joint are more complicated than those of single-interfaced joint, the soldering condition between sub-cables is very effective on the joint DC resistance.

Objective: The purpose of this study was to develop a stretchable joint motion sensor that is based on silver nano-particle. Through this sensor, it can be utilized as an equipment for rehabilitation and analyze joint movement. Method: In this study, precursor solution was created, after that, nozel printer (Musashi, Image master 350PC) was used to print on a circuit board. Sourcemeter (Keithley, Keithley-2450) was used in order to evaluate changes of electric resistance as the sensor stretches. In addition, the sensor was attached on center of a knee joint to 2 male adults, and performed knee flexion-extension in order to evaluate accurate analysis; 3 infrared cameras (100 Hz, Motion Master 100, Visol Inc., Korea) were also used to analyze three dimensional movement. Descriptive statistics were suggested for comparing each accuracy of measurement variables of joint motions with the sensor and 3D motions. Results: The change of electric resistance of the sensor indicated multiple of 30 times from initial value in 50% of elongation and the value of electric resistance were distinctively classified by following 10%, 20%, 30%, 40% of elongation respectively. Through using the sensor and 3D camera to analyze movement variable, it showed a resistance of 99% in a knee joint extension, whereas, it indicated about 80% in flexion phase. Conclusion: In this research, the stretchable joint motion sensor was created based on silver nanoparticle that has high conductivity. If the sensor stretches, the distance between nanoparticles recede which lead gradual disconnection of an electric circuit and to have increment of electric resistance. Through evaluating angle of knee joints with observation of sensor's electric resistance, it showed similar a result and propensity from 3D motion analysis. However, unstable electric resistance of the stretchable sensor was observed when it stretches to maximum length, or went through numerous joint movements. Therefore, the sensor need complement that requires stability when it comes to measuring motions in any condition.

We fabricated a closed coils by using resistive-joint method and the joint resistance of the coils were estimated by field decay technique in liquid nitrogen. We used the Runge-kutta method for the numerical analysis to calculate the decay properties. The closed coil was wound by $(Bi,Pb)_2Sr_2Ca_2Cu_3O_x$/Ag tape. Both ends the tape were overlapped and soldered to each other. The current was induced in a closed coils by external magnetic flux density. Its decay characteristic was observed by means of measuring the magnetic flux density generated by induced current at the center of the closed coil with hall sensor. The joint resistance was calculated as the ratio of the inductance of the loop to the time constants. The joint resistances were evaluated as a function of critical current of loop, contact length, sweep time, and external magnetic flux density in a contact length of 7 cm. It was observed that joint resistance was dependent on contact length of a closed coil, but independent of critical current, sweep time, and external magnetic flux density. The joint resistance was measured to be higher for a standard four-probe method, compared with that for the field decay technique. This implies that noise of measurement in a standard four-probe method is larger than that of field decay technique. It was estimated that joint resistance was $8.0{\times}10^{-9}{\Omega}$ to $11.4{\times}10^{-9}{\Omega}$ for coils of contact length for 7 cm. It was found that 40Pb/60Sn solder are unsuitable for persistent mode.

In practical applications of HTS tapes for electric devices such as coils and power cables, the jointing of HTS tapes is needed. In magnet applications superconducting joints are needed to achieve very low resistance at the joint, but for power device applications, a slightly higher joint resistance may be acceptable. In this study, an economical joint with good mechanical and electrical integrity could be achieved for Bi-2223 tapes which can be applicable to electric power applications. A lap joint method has been used. The joint resistance and strength of the jointed Bi2223 tapes have been evaluated. Electro-mechanical properties of the joint sample under tension have been examined and compared with the case of the single tapes.

Purpose: This study was conducted to verify the effect of applying a pressure biofeedback unit on walking ability and knee joint function while performing knee joint extensor strengthening exercises using resistance exercise equipment in total knee replacement (TKR) patients. Methods: This study was conducted on twelve patients receiving rehabilitation treatment after being admitted to a rehabilitation hospital post-TKR. Of these, six were allocated to a feedback group with a pressure biofeedback unit, and the other 6 were allocated to a control group without a pressure biofeedback unit. The subjects performed an exercise program for 45 minutes per session, five times a week, for two weeks. Walking ability and knee joint function were evaluated and analyzed before and after exercise. Results: The feedback group showed significantly better improvements in walking speed, gait cycle, step length on the non-operation side, time on the foot on the operation side, K-WOMAC stiffness, and K-WOMAC function than the control group (p<0.05). Conclusion: When strengthening the knee joint extensor muscles using resistance exercise equipment in TKR patients, the provision of a pressure biofeedback unit was found to improve walking ability and knee joint function by inducing concentric-eccentric contraction of the knee joint extensor muscles. Therefore, the study shows that exercise based on the provision of a pressure biofeedback unit should be considered when strengthening knee joint extensor muscles to improve the walking ability and knee joint function of TKR patients in clinical practice.

본 논문에서는 프리캐스트 방식으로 제작 가능한 격자형 강합성 바닥판의 이음부에 기계식 연결방식을 적용하고자 콘크리트 전단키와 고장력볼트로 구성되는 이음부에 대해 Push-out 시험으로 전단내력을 구하였으며, 이를 전단마찰 이론에 근거한 이론식 및 설계식과 비교함으로써 전단내력을 평가하였다. 분석결과에 따르면, 이음부 접합면을 에폭시로 부착한 경우가 전단키를 강판으로 보강한 경우 보다 약 10% 정도 더 큰 전단내력을 갖는 것으로 나타났으나, 실험체간 전단내력의 편차는 전단키를 강판으로 보강한 경우가 더 작게 나타났다. 실험결과를 계산식 및 설계식과 비교한 결과, 기존 설계식으로 안전하게 설계될 수 있음을 알 수 있었다. 그러나, ACI-318에 의할 경우 이음부 전단내력이 과소평가되기 때문에 LRFD에서 제시된 설계식의 적용이 더 적당한 것으로 분석되었다.
