승마 시뮬레이터는 승마동작을 모사하여 실내에서 신체활동을 수행하기 위한 운동기구이다. 본 연구는 승마 시뮬레이터를 이용한 운동 시 소모되는 에너지 추정에 관한 연구이다. 실험은 총 9개의 동작으로 구분된 승마 동작에 대해 운동부하를 1분 단위로 변화시켜 총 25분 동안 운동을 수행하도록 설계하였으며, 호흡가스측정을 통해 에너지소모량을 수집하였다. 그 결과 신체조건에 따라 각 동작별 에너지소모량에 유의한 차이가 있음을 확인하였다. 이를 통해 사용자의 생체정보 측정 없이 신체정보만을 활용한 승마운동의 에너지소모량 추정방법을 개발하였다. 연구결과는 승마 시뮬레이터를 이용한 운동시 동작의 변화와 주행시간, 성별, 연령을 이용하여 실시간 에너지소모량의 계산이 가능해질 것이다.

본 연구에서는 실내용 승마운동기를 이용하여 승마운동이 젊은 성인남녀의 기초체력, 유연성 및 근기능 증진에 미치는 효과를 정량적으로 평가하고자 하였다. 피험자들은 신체 건강한 20대 남성 10명과 여성 10명을 대상으로 실시하였다. 운동은 방향별 15분씩, 총 45분을 수행하였으며 매주 3일씩 총 4주간 진행하였다. 또한 증진효과를 알아보기 위하여 피험자들에 대한 기초체력, 유연성 및 근기능 평가를 실시하였다. 실험결과, 운동 4주 후 피험자들의 기초체력, 유연성 및 근기능 능력이 모두 유의하게 증가하는 경향을 나타냈다. 이는 승마운동 시 3차원적이며 지속적인 움직임이 복부와 요추의 길항근에 원심성 운동효과를 유도하였으며 또한 유연한 움직임은 근반응성을 향상시켰다. 승마운동기는 전신운동효과에 매우 긍정적이며, 향후 고령자 및 장애인에게 효과가 있다고 판단된다.

제주마를 이용한 경속보(rising trot)시 숙련정도에 따라 2보폭동안 기승자세를 비교 분석하여 교육과정에 응용 할 수 있는 정량적 자료를 제시한다. 참여한 피험자는 총 10명(숙련군: 5명, 미숙련군: 5명)이었고, 실험 및 분석 방법은 3차원 영상분석(Kwon3D Motion Analysis System)을 하였고, 분석변인은 국면 및 이벤트별 시간, 선 및 각운동변인이었다. 숙련군이 미숙련군에 비해 상대적으로 지지기보다 공중국면의 소요시간 비율이 더 많았고, 국면경과에 따라 더 적은 상하운동범위 속에서, 전후 및 좌우속도에서 더 일관된 속도를 유지하였고, 상하방향에서 말의 보조와 동조를 이루면서 일관된 주기를 이루면서 반동운동이 이루어졌다. 숙련군이 미숙련군에 비해 상대적으로 팔꿈치에서 더 많은 굴곡 및 국면경과에 따라 어깨의 더 많은 후방신전자세를 취하였다. 고관절과 무릎은 더 많은 전방굴곡자세를 취한 반면 발목의 경우 모두 저측굴곡의 자세를 유지하였다. 동체는 수직축에 대해 후방신전자세인 반면 미숙련군은 전방굴곡자세를 유지하였다. 즉 미숙련군의 경우 숙련군에 비해 다소 경속보에서 보조의 경과에 따라 불안한 자세를 취한 것으로 사료된다.

This paper analyzes the motion of a horseback riding robot which has two actuators and three joints. It is impossible to control the saddle to get to any position and orientation using the two motors because the robot has less degrees of freedom than the number of joints. Therefore it is required to know the possible location and orientation along with the velocity characteristics of each pose prior to motion planning. For this purpose, this paper analyzes the characteristics of the robot motion. The authors derive the forward and inverse kinematics of the robot motion and developed the trajectory editor for motion planning. Also, Jacobian of the robot is analyzed. It reveals that one of the actuator has little influence to the speed of the saddle motion while the other affects the speed of the saddle motion dominantly. The approach of the paper can be applied for the analysis of characteristics of a robot which has less number of actuators than that of joints.

This paper reads Tristram Shandy around the issue of hobbyhorse, Sterne's main contribution to novelistic techniques as well as his insightful understanding of the modern condition. First, Sterne represents his characters according to the principle of hobbyhorse, declaring "I will draw my uncle Toby's character from his HOBBY-HORSE." Gradually distancing himself from the Juvenalian satiric mode as well as Henry Fielding's grand narrative and Samuel Richardson's psychological realism, as is seen in the early episode of Yorick's death, Sterne suggests that the best way to represent his characters lies in describing their hobbyhorses. Sterne's foregrounding of hobbyhorse is linked with his embrace of madness as part of the modern identity. He accepts that hobbyhorse-riding, a quirky and mad habit of mind or behavior, is indispensable for some people, like Uncle Toby, to survive and get along with their otherwise unbearable lives. Uncle Toby's hobbyhorse of waging mock battles in the bowling green saves him from the perplexing real world of language and sexuality, while the fictionality of his hobbyhorsical world is exposed by Widow Wadman. Since a hobbyhorse is by definition a world of private pleasure and eccentricity, sentimentalism comes along to bridge the two virtually incommensurable hobbyhorsical world in place of linguistic communication. Yet if Tristram Shandy fully stages sentimentalism, a cardinal part of hobbyhorse riding, it also offers an awareness of it, which is a significant development in the cult of sentimentalism in the eighteenth century. Tristram Shandy performs a version of sentimental journey where each character rides his hobbyhorse and the reader is invited to ride his/her own hobbyhorse.

본 연구는 승마가 노인의 골밀도에 어떠한 영향을 미치는지 알아보기 위하여 실시되었다. 본 연구에 참여한 대상자는 총 31명의 정상 노인으로 승마운동군 15명, 승마기구운동군 16명을 무작위로 나누어 연구에 참여하였다. 승마운동 프로그램은 12주 간 주 2회 25분을 실시하였다. 사전 검사는 승마운동프로그램 시작 전에 실시하고, 사후 검사는 운동 6주 후, 운동 12주 후에 연구 전 검사와 동일한 방법으로 시행하였다. 두 그룹의 운동 전과 운동 6주 후, 운동 12주 후의 측정변인에 대한 변화를 알아보기 위해 이원배치 반복측정 분산분석을 이용하였다. 집단별 골밀도의 변화를 비교한 결과, 두 그룹 모두 허리뼈 L3, L4, 넙다리 돌기에서 시간에 따라 유의한 차이가 있었다. 결론적으로, 승마운동을 통한 말의 3차원적인 움직임을 통해 노인들에게 정상적인 움직임을 유도하여 골밀도에 긍정적인 영향을 미칠 수 있다. 노인 대상자의 건강 상태, 시간적 경제적 여건이나 선호도를 고려하여 적절하게 승마운동프로그램을 활용한다면 노인의 삶의 질 향상에 도움이 될 수 있을 것이다.

Objective : The purposes of this study was to analyze the effects of the stirrup length fitted to the rider's lower limb length and it's impact on less skilled riders during trot in equestrian events. Methods : Participants selected as subjects consisted of less skilled riders(n=5, mean age: $40.02{\pm}10.75yrs$, mean heights: $169.77{\pm}2.08cm$, mean body weights: $67.65{\pm}7.76kg$, lower limb lengths: $97.26{\pm}2.35cm$, mean horse heights: $164.00{\pm}5.74cm$ with 2 type of stirrups lengths(lower limb ratio 74.04%, and 79.18%) during trot. The variables analyzed consisted of the displacement for Y axis and Z axis(head, and center of mass[COM]) with asymmetric index, trunk front-rear angle(consistency index), lower limb joint(Right hip, knee, and ankle), and average vertical forces of horse rider during 1 stride in trot. The 4 camcorder(HDR-HC7/HDV 1080i, Spony Corp, Japan) was used to capture horse riding motion at a rate of 60 frames/sec. Raw data was collected from Kwon3D XP motion analysis package ver 4.0 program(Visol, Korea) during trot. Results : The movements and asymmetric index didn't show significant difference at head and COM, Also, 74.04% stirrups lengths in trunk tilting angle showed significant difference with higher consistency than that of 79.18% stirrups lengths. Hip and knee joint angle showed significant difference with more extended posture than that of 74.04% stirrups lengths during trot. Ankle angle of 79.18% stirrups length showed more plantarflexion than that of 74.04% stirrups lengths. Average vertical force of rider showed significant difference with higher force at 79.18% stirrups lengths than that of 74.04% stirrups lengths during stance phase. Conclusion : When considering the above, 74.04% stirrups length could be effective in impulse reduction with consistent posture in rather less skilled horse riders.

This study aimed to investigate the effect of four common types of Qigong position (standing, sitting, supine, and horse-riding position) on the autonomic nervous system. Thirty healthy subjects participated in this study once a week for four weeks. Electroencephalogram (EEG) was measured three times (before, during, and after the position) while the subject maintained one of four positions for ten minutes. There were significant changes in HRV components compared with EEG power spectra in the standing position. Especially, the ratio of low-to-high frequency (LF/HF) which represents a state of balance of autonomic nervous system was increased. In the sitting position, $\beta$ wave which reflects a state of alert consciousness was increased and both the sympathetic and parasympathetic nerves were activated. On the other hand, in the spine position, $\theta$ wave which signifies a state of relaxation was increased and heart rate (HR) was decreased. Activation of sympathetic and parasympathetic nerves was also observed in this position. Significant increases of indices related to awakening and concentration were observed accompanied by increase of HR and a sympathetic nerve was activated in the riding-horse position. In the present study, it was shown that each Qigong position caused various and significant changes in autonomic nervous system. It would be expected that these results can be applied in the choice of appropriate Qigong position according to objective of Qigong therapy although it is remained to further evaluate the effects of long-term maintenance of Qigong positions and repeated Qigong training.
