Let $G=O(2){\times}O(2){\times}O(2)$ and let $M^4$ be a closed G-invariant minimal hypersurface with constant scalar curvature in $S^5$. In this paper, we prove a property on $M^4$.

We establish a sufficient condition for a simple closed curve in the Euclidean plain $\mathbb{R}^2$, the unit sphere $S^2$ or the hyperbolic plane $H^2$ to be the boundary of a metric ball.

A curvature variable taper is proposed for a waveguide-microstrip transition. It is applied to a ridge waveguide. The curvature depends on the taper length and difference of waveguide's height and microstrip substrate's height. The taper is manufactured easier than the other tapers. It's reflection coefficient is smaller than the parabolic taper's below one wavelengrh. The results of experiment show that S$_{11}$ is below -20dB and SS$_{21}$ is about -0.5dB in the band of 10~15 GHz. These results are good agreement with the theoritical values.

In this research, we studied the pressure drop affecting on the internal surface roughness and the curvature radius of a U-tube, which is used for the cooling system in PWR(Pressurized Water Reactor). Using ANSYS-FLUENT, a commercial code based on CFD(Computational Fluid Dynamics) technique, we compared a Moody chart with the Darcy friction factor changed by a range of various surface roughness and Reynolds numbers of a straight pipe model. We studied the effect giving variation about a range of various surface roughness and the curvature radius of the full scale U-tube model. The material of the heat transfer tube is Inconel 690 used in the steam generator. We compared the velocity distribution of selected 4 locations, and derived the correlation between the surface roughness and the pressure drop for the U-tube of each representative curvature radius using the linear regression method.

Objectives : This study is performed to evaluate the clinical effect of Chuna therapy on the neck pain associated with kypotic cervical curvature. Methods : This study carried out on two patients with neck pain & kyphotic cervical curvature who have received treatment in Department of Oriental Rehabilitation Medicine, Dong-seo Oriental Medical hospital from 4th April 2011 to 26th May 2012. Pre and post treatment, We evaluated the cervical angle, Jackson's angle, Jochumsen method, VAS and effective score of treatment. Results & Conclusions : Two patients who received Chuna treatment recovered cervical curvature and improved neck pain.

A point-wise car-like robot moving in the plane changes its direction with a constraint on turning curvature. In this paper, we consider the problem of computing a shortest path of bounded curvature between a prescribed initial configuration (position and orientation) and a polygonal goal, and propose a new geometric proof showing that the shortest path is either of type CC or CS (or their substring), where C specifies a non-degenerate circular arc and S specifies a non-degenerate straight line segment. Based on the geometric property of the shortest path, the shortest path from a configuration to a polygonal goal can be computed in linear time.

Objectives This case study aimed to investigate efficacy of Chuna manual therapy (CMT) on acute neck pain patients with abnormal cervical curvature. Methods CMT was administered to five patients with abnoraml cervical curvature in the Department of Korean Medicine Rehabilitation, College of Korean Medicine, Semyung University Korean Hospital from June 2018 to May 2023. Cervical angle, Jackson's angle, Jochumsen method, Ishihara index and visual analog scale (VAS) scores were evaluated before and after treatment. Results In cases 1, 2, 3, 4, and 5, the cervical angle, Jackson's angle, Jochumsen method, Ishihara index all increased, while VAS scores decreased after CMT. Conclusions The observed improvements suggest that CMT is effective in restoring the cervical curvature and alleviating neck pain in patients with acute neck pain.

This paper presents a modified mean curvature diffusion filter to smooth speckle noise in images. Mean curvature diffusion filter has already shown good results in reducing noise in images while preserving fine details. In the mean curvature diffusion, the rate of smoothing is controlled by the local value of the diffusion coefficient chosen to be a function of the local image gradient magnitude. In this paper, the diffusion coefficient is modified to be controlled adaptively by local image surface slope and heterogeneity. The local surface slope contributes to preserving details (e.g.edges) in image and the local surface heterogeneity helps the smoothing filter consider the amount of noise in both edge and non-edge area. The proposed filter's performance is demonstrated by quantitative experiments using speckle noised aerial image and TerraSAR-X satellite image.

Thirty maxillary lateral incisors were injected with china ink, decalcified, cleared and used in an in vitro study to determine the number of root canals, the frequency and location of lateral canals, the location of apical foramens, the frequency of apical deltas, and the curvature of root canals. The results were as follows: 1. Most of the teeth demonstrated single canal, but 6.7% of the teeth were found to have bifurcated canals. 2. Of the 32 canals studied, 37.5% of the canals were found to have lateral canals and these ramifications were usually located in the and apical third of the root. 3. 9 apical foramens were located directly on the root apex and 21 foramens laterally. 4. 3 canals showed mesial curvature, 20 canals distal curvature, 4 canals labial curvature, and 3 canals palatal curvature.
