Objective: The aim of this study is to develop an office chair enabling to keep working at reclined sitting posture. Background: Sedentary workers are supposed to change the posture frequently during long hours of sitting. A reclined sitting position has been recommended to reduce disc pressure. But slumped sitting posture caused by the buttock sliding forward without any adjustment of back reclining is commonly observed. The worker seems to have tendency to change the sitting posture maintaining working condition. We assumed the reason to be their hands movement away from the working space when tilting backward. Method: Slide mechanism allowing seat to move forward was designed to maintain the hand position in working space during reclining. A prototype was manufactured and tilting motion was analyzed using motion capture system. Four experiment chairs were tested including the manufactured prototype chair and three other commercial chairs. Results: A backward movements of the hand position were 13.0mm, 101.7mm, 156.1mm and 139.3mm at the prototype chair, compared to chair B, chair C and chair D, respectively. And the movement was remarkably small at the prototype chair. Conclusion: The developed seat sliding chair allows back tilting maintaining hand position at working space. We expect the user tilting back more often than normal tilting chair during seated work. But further investigation is required to figure out the effectiveness of the developed chair using prolonged working hours. Application: The developed office chair directly affects commercialization.

This paper presents a 3D face modeling method using a CCD camera and a projector (LCD projector or Slide projector). The camera faces the human face and the projector casts white stripe patterns on the human face. The 3D shape of the face is extracted from spatial and temporal locations of the white stripe patterns on a series of image frames. The proposed method employs region segmentation and multi-beam techniques for efficient 3D modeling of hair region and faster 3D scanning respectively. In the proposed method, each image is segmented into face, hair, and shadow regions, which are independently processed to obtain the optimum results for each region. The multi-beam method， which uses a number of equally spaced stripe patterns, reduces the total number of image frames and consequently the overall data acquisition time. Light beam calibration is adopted for efficient light plane measurement, which is not influenced by the direction (vertical or horizontal) of the stripe patterns. Experimental results show that the proposed method provides a favorable 3D face modeling results, including the hair region.

This survey study is to find out children' needs of 'D' child park to remodel into a new one and their common opinions to the child playground, and to contribute this results to drive alternative plans. This park is very old and located in detached residental zone, Wooa-dong, Deokjin-gu, Jeon-city. This was performed by a questionnaire survey method, and the questionnaire was designed by researchers considering relative literatures. Data were collected from 198 children, who had attended elementary school in Wooa-dong. By analyzing those data, findings were as follows : 1) To play experience of 'D' child park was very important for children, so they memoried it. Above all, they membered the perception of 'D' child park through playing with play facilities and the communication with their friends. 2) Children would like to play unrestricted plays, but to need traditional play facilities as like a slide and a swing. So, future playground would be planned to adventure playground with some traditional play facilities.

We designed and implemented a 3-dimensional structure internal antenna which has volume less than 1.5 cc for mobile phone to improve efficiency and gain. Multiple bending for the resonance of small internal antenna derives reduction of gain due to cancellation of antenna current. In this study, the current cancelation was reduced by the minimization of antenna bending. And the helix element was applied for the purpose both compensation of short antenna length and action of radiation element. For the verification of this study, a 1.5 cc volume 3D antenna which was fabricated by the press method applied to the dual band mobile phone. Measurement showed that efficiencies and gains under the slide down and up were 27.73 %, 0.29 dBi for the GSM band and 46.84 %, 2.27 dBi for the USPCS band, and had good performance under the small antenna volume. H-plane radiation pattern showed omnidirectional for the both band.

The growing behavior of Candida albicans in various concentration of glucose and corticosteroid media was studied with the method of modified hanging slide culture. The strains of Candida albicans used in this study were obtained from vaginal swab from outpatients and were isolated from cultured colonies on Sabouraud's glucose agar media. To detect the budding rate of blastospore, the diluted suspension of Candida albicans in normal saline were inoculated into various concentration of glucose (Gl, G2, G3, G4), corticosteroid (S1, S2, S3, S4) and corticosteroid with 10% pepton broth (D1, D2, D3, D4) respectively and cultured at room temperature $(22{\sim}25^{\circ}C)$. The number of budding of blastospore were counted under the high power field of light microscope (400X) at specific time interval, e.g, 1, 2, 3, 6, 9, 12, 18, and 24 hours after inoculation. The results are as following: 1. The most effective budding rate was seen in G4 media (1.25% glucose) in 18 hours aft inoculation (89%). 2. The budding rate in Sabouraud's glucose broth with various concentration of dexamethasone added, was not significantly different from that of simple Sabouraud's glucose broth within 18 hours after inoculation, but there was statistically. significant difference in two budding rate at 24 hours observation. 3. The budding rate in 10% pepton broth media with various concentration of dexamethasone was almost same budding rate in control group, which is normal saline and 10% pepton broth, except on 2 and 24 hours results.

The serological typing of staphylococcus hyicus subsp. hyicus isolated from pigs with exudative epidermitis and healthy pigs was attempted by slide agglutination technique with absorbed sera prepared from antisera against swine strains of the organism. Of 204 Staph. hyicus subsp. hyicus isolated, 202 (99.0%) were classified into 6 serotypes tentatively designated as A, B, C, D, E and F. The organisms were found to possess common antigens and a strain specific antigen. In 26 epizootics of exudative epidermitis, type A was found in 4(15.4%), type B in 12(46.2%), type C in 9(34.6%) and type E in 1(3.8%). All of the piglets of each affected litter were infected by serologically identical strain. In 178 strains isolated from the skin of healthy pigs, type A was found in 14.1%, type B in 23.0%, type C in 30.3%, type D in 1.7%, type E in 7.9% and type F in 21.9%, and 2 strains were untypable. There was a difference in the occurrence of serotypes of Staph. hyicus subsp. hyicus among the farms examined.

We demonstrate a k-domain linearization using a fiber Bragg grating (FBG) array for Fourier domain optical coherence tomography based on a wavelength swept laser. The k-domain linearization is carried out with an interpolation method using a FBG array with five FBGs. The measured signal-to-noise ratio from the point spread function after k-domain linearization is 12 dB improved over that of without k-domain linearization at the 1 mm depth of the sample. Clear OCT imaging of the slide glass with k-domain linearization could be obtained.
