The purpose of this study was to examine the effect of foot orthotics on the overall comfort and muscle activity during running. The subjects were 10 members from the joggers' club which consisted of 2 women and 8 men. These individuals ran on the treadmill by 4.0m/s speed with and without the custom foot orthotics. The data concerning the overall comfort was collected by a questionairre that examined the overall comfort, heel cushioning, forefoot cushioning, medio-lateral control, arch height, heel cup fit, shoe heel width, forefoot width, and shoe length The MegaWin ver. 2.1(Mega Electronics lid, Ma. Finland) was used to gain electromyography signals of the muscle activity; Tibialis anterior, medial gastronemius, lateral gastronemius, vastus lateralis, vastus medialis, biceps femoris, and rectus femoris were measured. The results of the study were as follows. 1. During running the overall comfort was higher for the foot arthotic condition than the nonorthotic condition. Among the inquiries the overall comfort showed the biggest difference comparing the two conditions. and the shoe heel width showed the highest score for contort. 2 The muscle activity of the biceps femoris, and vastus lateralis in the stance period decreased. due to the foot orthotics. The muscle activity of the vastus medialis in the swing period also decreased and the muscle activity tibialis anterior in the stance and swing stance decreased as well During running, orthotics showed positive result in foot comfort. The foot comfort related to decreased stress, muscle activity, and foot arch strain. Overall comfort and the adequate decrease of muscle activity were associated with injury prevention and the best method to prevent injury semms to be the maintenance of foot comfort.

The purpose of this study is to pro-actively respond to changes in government R&D policy and start to supplement the limitations of previous KIGAM R&D planning process. We looked out through the existing literature for a variety of R&D planning process, and analyzed the R&D planning process characteristics of each institution through the interview. As a result, we can be derived conclusions and implications from three sides, environmental analysis, demand excavation methods, R&D project configuration and selection method. In the case of environmental analysis and the overall need to enhance the skills and mega trend analysis by market trend analysis. And in the demand side, the institute need to establish challenging and specific R&D goals.

Objective : The authors tried to reveal some unique features of lipomeningomyelocele (LMMC), including clinical presentation, factors precipitating onset of symptoms, pathologic entities of LMMC associated with tethered cord syndrome, and surgical outcome in LMMC patients. Methods : Seventy-five patients with LMMC were enrolled in this study. Neuro-imaging and intraoperative findings allowed classification of LMMC into three Types. The patients were divided into two groups by age : A (51 patients), from birth to 3 years, and B (24 patients), from 3 to 24 years. For prevention of retethering of the cord, a mega-dural sac rebuilding procedure was performed in 15 patients. Results : During a mean postoperative follow-up period of 4 years, the surgical outcome was satisfactory in terms of improved pain and motor weakness, but disappointing with reference to the resolution of bowel and bladder dysfunction. Among these 75 patients with LMMC, preoperative deficits were improved after surgery in 29 (39%), remained stable in 28 (37%), changed slightly in 13 (17%), and worsened in 5 (7%). Patients in group A achieved better outcomes than those in group B. Depending on the type of lesion, patients with types I and II LMMC have better outcomes than those with type III LMMC. Finally, retethering of the cord with neurological deterioration occurred in 4 (5.3%) of the 75 patients, but no retethering was found in the 15 patients who were recently treated with a mega-dural sac rebuilding procedure. Conclusion : Our data continue to support the opinion that early diagnosis and optimal surgery are still essential for the treatment of patients with LMMC, since there is a high likelihood of residual neurological functions that can be preserved. Based on our surgical experience of untethering and decompression of lipomas, a mega-dural sac repair is useful to prevent retethering of the cord.

This research provides a quantitative analysis on research articles published in PLoS ONE, a multidisciplinary open access journal, by authors affiliated with Korean institutions. Korean authors published more than 6,500 research ariticles in the mega journal between 2006 and 2019. Korea is ranked the top 11th place in terms of article publishing in the journal. Most articles by Korean authors are concentrated in the biomedical fields. In recent years, the overall production of PLoS ONE has decreased as authors migrated to competing mega journals such as Scientific Reports and BMJ Open. The change might have been affected in part by the delay in the review period and the dropping impact factor score. The open access share of the Korean PLoS ONE authors of more than 10 articles hovers around 30%. However, there is a significant variation among researchers reaching up to 50% discrepancies. Among altmetrics provided by PLoS ONE, the saves are highly correlated with the views and the citations. On the contrary, the shares show low correlation with other use metrics. A follow up, survey questionnarie based research involving researchers who have published in PLoS ONE is planned in order to investigate author motivation and experience in the review process.

Locality of domestic high-Ca limestones can be divided into three districts, i.e., (1) the Jecheon-Danyang area, (2) the Samcheok-Taebaek-Jungsun area, and (3) the Uljin-Andong area, in accordance with their geologic background and type of the deposits. Except for some crystalline limestones from the Jecheon-Danyang area, domestic high-Ca limestones were mostly recrystallized and Ca-enriched by the effects of hydrothermal alteration and/or thermal metamorphism. The lime-stones can be also divided into crystalline limestone type, marble type, micro- and mega-crystalline calcite types on the basis of their composition, crystallinity, and mineral facies. An applied-mineralogical characterization of the high-Ca limestones was done through the systematic analyses and tests for the limestones. The high-Ca limestones from the area (1), which are megascopic ally close to the original limestone in lithology, display lower whiteness, higher contents of CaO (51 ～ 54 wt.%), low crystallinity, and fine-grained texture. Two typical hydrothermal types of the high-Ca limestones from the area (2), i.e., micro- (mostly 0.2～0.3 mm) and mega-crystalline (2～15 em) calcite types, have comparatively higher whiteness and rather variable CaO contents (50～55 wt.%) with exhibiting quite different crystallinity each other. The micro-crystalline calcite type is especially dominant in this area, and has comparatively uniform crystallinity and homogeneous composition. Compared to these limestones, the high-Ca limestones from the area (3) show remarkable differences in grade and quality according to their types of deposit and occurrence. Based on these mineral characters and chemical composition, a possible scheme for industrial uses of the domestic high-Ca limestones was suggested.

A severe problem in VE study of a project is to reduce value due to loss of performance, caused by focusing on cost reduction. Also a lack of understanding performance concept, no trial VE workshop as well as cost saving-based policy have not satisfied customer needs. A efficient VE job plan for especially large scale railroad construction project is proposed in this study. This study developed a more objective performance evaluation system for value engineering study of mega projects and suggested a systematic process of performance quantitative analysis for value improvement. The proposed performance measurement method would be very useful for better communication and consensus between decision makers and VE team.

The most recent, 80 mega pixels digital camera appeared through the development of digital technology, and nonmetric digital cameras have been using in various field of photogrammetry. In this study, we experimented lens calibration using aerial photographs and ground control points. The aerial photographs were taken a non-metric digital camera which is CMOS(Complementary Metal Oxide Semiconductor) 21.1 mega pixels sensor and 35mm lens at a helicopter. And the ground control points were selected on the 1:1,000 plotting origin data. As a result, we calculated focal length, PPA(Principal Point of Autocollimation) and symmetric radial distortion coefficients from the lens. Also, RMSE(root mean square error) and maximum residual of the ground control points from the aerial triangulation were compared before and after calibration. And we found that the accuracy of the after calibration was improved very significantly.

This paper presents the results of a laboratory investigation of the porous pavement substructure effect when reinforced with geocell. In order to analyze load carrying capacity of Geocell, a series of 9 reduced-scale laboratory tests was performed, changing the type, thickness, diameter of Geocell. The results of the analyses indicated that the bearing capacity of the reinforced Geocell increases much more than the non-reinforced Geocell and load carrying capacity was considered to be insignificant according to the type of Geocell. It was also found that the most supportive effects appeared as 30 cm in diameter and 1.8mm in thickness.
