  • In this paper, we present novel simulation contents for drone racing and autonomous flight of drone. With Depth camera and SLAM, we conducted mapping 3 dimensional environment through RTAB-map. The 3 dimensional map is represented by point cloud data. After that we recovered this data in Unreal Engine. This recovered raw data reflects real data that includes noise and outlier. Also we built drone racing contents like gate and obstacles for evaluating drone flight in Unreal Engine. Then we implemented both HITL and SITL by using AirSim which offers flight controller and ROS api. Finally we show autonomous flight of drone with ROS and AirSim. Drone can fly in real place and sensor property so drone experiences real flight even in the simulation world. Our simulation framework increases practicality than other common simulation that ignore real environment and sensor.

  • This case report describes the clinical presentation and successful surgical repair of a diaphragmatic hernia-related small intestinal strangulation in a neonatal foal. A nine-day-old foal presented with colic signs and respiratory distress. History taking showed that the dam of the foal experienced difficulty during delivery, and the owner assisted in delivery by pulling on the foal. Radiography and ultrasonography confirmed the diaphragmatic rent and the presence of a small intestine within the thoracic cavity. Surgical intervention was required to repair the diaphragmatic defect and address the intestinal strangulation. The diaphragm was reconstructed, and the nonviable incarcerated portion of the small intestine was resected and anastomosed using an end-to-end technique. This unusual case report provides insights into the surgical repair and outcomes of an acquired diaphragmatic hernia in a neonatal foal.

  • A 5-year-old Thoroughbred race horse was presented to Busan Korea Racing Authority equine hospital with a 3-year history of a slow-growing left rostral maxillary mass. The location and progressive growth of the mass eventually resulted in poor food prehension, quidding and mouth bit placement. The mass was solitary and hard, and covered by normal smooth oral mucosa. Radiographic examination of the maxillae showed a flocculated and mixed radiolucent lesion protruding outward and displacing the 202 and 203 teeth caudally. The 202 tooth was in normal size and the 203 tooth was hypoplastic on radiography. Under general anesthesia, a partial surgical resection of the mass was performed to minimize functional loss and facilitate prompt return to track. After surgery, there was improvement in food intake, mouth bit placement, and cosmetic appearance. Histopathological examination determined the resected maxillay mass to be an ossifying fibroma. However, there was continued growth of remnant mass in the maxilla. Equine ossifying fibroma is a rare condition and primarily affects the rostral mandible, and less commonly, the maxillae. In this case, the lesion was slow-growing, and caused cosmetic and functional impairments, including poor food intake and reduced trainability. Surgical resection was performed, but the effect of treatment was limited due to advanced size / stage of the tumor. Early dental care is suggested for horse owners to prevent belated identification and improve successful treatment of oral disorders like ossifying fibroma.

  • A procedure based on solid-phase extraction (SPE) followed by liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry has been developed for the simultaneous analysis of 55 basic drugs in equine urine. The test scope covers diversified classes of drugs including some ${\beta}$-blockers, ${\beta}$-agonists, antihypotensives, CNS stimulants, sedatives, tranquilizers, antidepressants, antihypertensives and so on. LC-MS/MS separation and quantification was carried out in positive electrospray ionization and multiple reaction monitoring (MRM) mode. Four different brands of mixed mode cation exchange SPE sorbents; UCT XTRACT$^{(R)}$ XRDAH, Supelco DSC-MCAX$^{(R)}$, Varian Bond Elut Certify$^{(R)}$ and Waters Oasis$^{(R)}$ MCX were compared. The UCT XTRACT$^{(R)}$ XRDAH sorbent provided the best results in the preconcentration of samples, yielding relative recoveries higher than 80% except for terbutaline (41.3%), salbutamol (71.5%), heptaminol (70.7%), phenylpropanolamine (66.3%). Detection limits of the target drugs provided by the proposed analytical procedure were between 0.2~8.3 ng/mL.

  • The purpose of the study was to explore modern people's emotion regarding sex commercialization related to the abolition of grid girl. To collect data, based on 'reply journalism', this study collected 15 blogs, 10 online cafe contents, 1 youtube video clip, and 364 replies associated with the three online contents. To analyze the data, interpretive text analysis was utilized and the following results were obtained. As results, the analysis on the replies shows that the most strong emotion of the modern people regarding the abolition of grid girl is anti-feminism that includes hatred toward feminists and even females, criticism on feminism, and notion of 'women's enemy is women themselves'. In addition, sympathy toward racing models who lost their jobs, requirement of same abolition to the people with similar occupations, spatial separation between men and women, and consent on the abolition of racing models were found. Unlike the feminists' emotion regarding sex commercialization and racing models, modern people's emotion was different from them. Rather, ordinary people have doubted and even criticized on the rationales of feminism. Unlike feminists' notion about sex commercialization of racing models, these results imply that social image of racing models has changed and wish their position is respected as an ordinary occupation, without issues of sex commercialization.

  • The objective of this study was to estimate effects of the condition of racetrack on racing time in Thoroughbred racehorses, using 148,865 racing records for 8,189 heads that collected from KRA(Korea Racing Association). The results obtained were as follows. Based on moisture contents, the condition of racetrack was classified into Heavy, Good, Soft, Yielding and Sloppy. The condition of racetrack for last 12 years was 40.7%, 34.4%, 14.4%, 8.7% and 1.8% for Heavy, Good, Soft, Yielding and Sloppy, respectively. The frequency of heavy condition for racetrack was the highest and those of Yielding and Sloppy were relatively low. On the other hand, the frequency of heavy condition for racetrack was increased in spring and winter, whereas frequency of sloppy racetrack was increased in summer. The frequency of good condition was the highest in autumn. The regression coefficients of moisture contents in racetrack for racing time by racing distance ranged from -0.068~-0.162 seconds and the racing time was faster in sloppy condition than other track conditions. The time differences between Heavy and Sloppy ranged from -1.47~-3.41 seconds by distance.

  • The simulation results of a small racing boat racing in steady wind and encountering waves are investigated by Nakato & Ha. The simulation of the race running is realized by referring the measured data of boats and the motions are described by a set of equations of motion in six degree of freedom as generals used in the aerodynamics. In this report, Nakato & Ha's motion equations are modified by equipping the flaps to generate the lift. The flaps of the racing boat could restrain considerably the boat from capsizing caused by superposed external disturbances, wind and encountering waves.

  • The present experiments were undertaken to produce the standard antiserum for equine blood typing. The following results were obtained through ISO and Hetero Immunizations of the horses whose blood typing was analysed in the Laboratory of Racing Chemistry of Japan. 1. Of the 21 combinations of ISO-immune, 17 horses were produced antibody (about 80%) 2. Antibody titers were increased from early 1 week to late 5 weeks and any antibody titers were not be obtained in spite of the using of adjuvant and 10 repeated injections in the other 4 horses. 3. High antibody titers were obtained within the earliest period in the Dd antigen but were not increased over 32 times in spite of 8~10 repeated injections in the antigen. 4. Antibody were easily produced in the Ca antigen of ISO-Immune but production of antisera were tailed due to abscence of absorbed blood cell. 5. Antibody titers of 1,024 times were obtained through 5 injections in the Ca of HeteroImmune 6. Of the produced 15 antisera (16 system), 13 antigen (5 system) were absorbed.
