In the trackbed design using an elastic multi-layer model, the stress-dependent resilient modulus is the key input parameter, which reflects substructure performance under repeated traffic loading. The prediction models of resilient modulus of crushed stone and weathered granite soil were developed from nonlinear dynamic stiffness, which can be combined by in-situ and laboratory seismic measurements. The models accommodate the variation with the deviatoric and/or bulk stresses. To investigate the performance of the prediction models proposed, the elastic response of the test trackbed near PyeongTaek, Korea was evaluated using a 3-D nonlinear elastic computer program (GEOTRACK) and compared with measured elastic vertical displacement caused by the passages of freight and passenger trains. The material types of the test sub-ballasts are crushed stone and weathered granite soil, respectively. The calculated vertical displacements within the sub-ballasts are within the order of 1mm, and agree well with measured values with the reasonable margin. The prediction models are thus concluded to work properly in the preliminary investigation.

Purpose- The purpose of this study was to compare the fit of two prototype liquid cooled vests using a 3D body scanner and accompanying software. The objectives of this study were to obtain quantitative measurements of ease values, and to use these data to evaluate the fit of two cooling vests in active positions and to develop methodological protocol to resolve alignment issues between the scans using software designed for the alignment of 3D objects. Design/methodology/approach- Garment treatments and body positions were two independent variables with three levels each. Quantitative dataset were dependent variables, and were manipulated in 3x3 factorial designs with repeated measures. Scan images from eight subjects were used and ease values were obtained to compare the fit. Two different types of analyses were conducted in order to compare the fit using t-test; those were radial mean distance value analysis and radial distance distribution rate analysis. Findings- Overall prototype II achieved a closer fit than prototype I with both analyses. These were consistent results with findings from a previous study that used a different approach for evaluation. Research limitations/implications- The main findings can be used as practical feedback for prototype modification/selection in the design process, making use of 3D body scanner as an evaluation tool. Originality/value- Methodological protocols that were devised to eliminate potential sources of errors can contribute to application of data from 3D body scanners.

Purpose: Recently, a three dimensional approach to hard and soft tissues of the maxillofacial area has been widely used. This study was to evaluate the reproducibility and accuracy of a stereocamera compared to actual measurement methods using a digital caliper and digitizer. Methods: The stereoscopies of 7 head dummies with different sizes and shapes were obtained using a Di3D system (Dimensional Imaging, Glasgow, UK) after marking reference points on facial areas. From the obtained stereoscopy, 10 measurements representing the width, height and depth of each of the facial sections of the dummy were measured twice using a three dimensional reverse engineering software program (RapidForm$^{TM}$ 2006, Inus, Seoul, Korea). The x, y, and z coordinates of each of the three dimensional measurements were obtained and distances between two points were calculated. All procedures were repeated twice. The actual measurement method was performed twice, directly on dummies, using a digital caliper and values were compared with the previously determined values. Results: The results were as follows. In the ANOVA analysis, there were no significant statistical differences among the three measurement methods. In the Bonferroni analysis, with adjustments applied for multiple comparisons, there was no difference between actual measurement methods using a digitizer and a digital caliper. However, there was some difference between using a stereocamera and actual measurement methods using a digitizer and a digital caliper in values of $Ex_{Rt}-Ex_{Lt}$, $En_{Rt}-En_{Lt}$, $Ala_{Rt}-Ala_{Lt}$, $Ch_{Rt}-Ch_{Lt}$, G-Pg', $Ala_{Rt}$-Prn, $Ala_{Rt}$-Prn. The mean value for technical error in measurement (TEM) in Di3D (0.98 mm) was slightly higher than for a digital caliper (0.17 mm) and a digitizer (0.30 mm). In an intraclass correlation coefficient (ICC) there were no significant differences among the three measurement methods, but the Di3D system with the stereocamera showed relatively lower reproducibility compared to actual measurement methods using a digitizer and a digital caliper. Conclusion: These results indicate that some complementary measures may be needed to improve accuracy and reproducibility in the Di3D system with stereocamera.

이 논문에서는 반복측정치에 대한 분석모형 중, 혼합모형의 일종인 변량계수모형에 대하여 이론적으로 고찰한다. 특히 혼합모형의 설정, 모수 추정에 대하여 통계적으로 고찰하고 변량계수모형에 대한 가능한 모형을 열거하며, 그에 따르는 추정과 검정을 논의한다. 사례연구로 식이요법자료를 대상으로 가능한 변량계수모형을 적용하여 추정 및 검정을 실시한 결과, 고정인자인 사전값, 처리, 키 및 시간들의 인자는 체중감소에 대단히 유의함을 보여주었지만, 나이와 혈압은 유의하지 않았다. 처리효과에 있어서는 식이요법과 운동을 병행했을 때의 처리가 식이요법만 실시했을 때의 처리보다 체중이 더 감소했음을 알 수 있으며, 시간에 따른 체중감소의 효과는 삼차함수의 관계가 성립된다. 변량인자로는 개체효과는 유의하며 개체별 시간에 대한 교호작용의 효과는 차수가 높아질수록 급속도로 감소하여 3차 함수 관계가 적절한 모형으로 최종 선택되었다.

Background The survival rate of grafted fat is difficult to predict, and repeated procedures are frequently required. In this study, the effects of the freezing period of harvested adipose tissue and the addition of human adipose tissue-derived stem cells (ASCs) on the process of fat absorption were studied. Methods Adipose tissue was obtained from patients who underwent a lipoaspirated fat graft. The fat tissue was cryopreserved at $-20^{\circ}C$ in a domestic refrigerator. A total of 40 nude mice were used. The mice in the experimental group received three different subcutaneous injections in the back: an injection of fresh fat and ASCs, an injection of fat that had been frozen for one month and ASCs, and an injection of fat that had been frozen for two months and ASCs. The control mice received fat grafts without ASCs. The mice were sacrificed at four or eight weeks after the procedure, and the grafted fat tissues were harvested. The extracted fat was evaluated using photographic analysis, volume measurements, and histological examination. Results In the control group, the fat resorption rates four weeks after transplantation in the grafts of fresh fat, fat that had been frozen for one month, and fat that had been frozen for two months were 21.14%, 22.46%, and 42.56%, respectively. In the experimental group, the corresponding resorption rates were 6.68%, 13.0%, and 33.9%, respectively. Conclusions ASCs can increase the fat graft survival rate. The use of ASCs in fat grafting can reduce the need for repeated fat grafts and provide good long term results.

Objective: We aimed to investigate differences of range of motion in measuring shoulder internal rotation (IR) and external rotation (ER) resulting from posture change in manual scapular stabilization in prone, hook-lying, sitting, and standing positions in healthy young adults. Design: Cross-sectional study. Methods: This study included healthy young adults who agreed to participate after a thorough explanation about the study purpose and methods. A clinometer was used to measure shoulder rotation. Measurements of shoulder rotation according to postural change were performed in prone, hook-lying, sitting, and standing positions. The repeated measures analysis of variance was used to compare between-group differences in postural change. Results: The lower the posture, the greater the average value of IR angle. In contrast, the higher the posture, the greater the average value of the external rotation angle. In active and passive IR with posture change, there was difference in average value but with no statistical significance. In active and passive ER, there was a statistically significant difference between prone and sitting, prone and standing, hook-lying and sitting, hook-lying and standing, and sitting and standing position (p<0.05). Conclusions: Our findings suggest that postural change should be considered in order to increase the strength or range of motion of the internal and external rotation of the patient's shoulder joint.

3차원 스캐너를 통한 인체 측정치는 다양한 분야에서 사용되고 있다. 본 연구는 이러한 3차원 측정치의 정확성과 신뢰도를 조사하기 위한 것이다. 이를 위해 TECMATH사의 VITUS 전신 스캐너로 인체를 측정, ScanWorX Body Measure 소프트웨어를 이용하여 항목을 측정 한 값과 직접 인체측정 에 의해 얻어진 값을 비교하였다. 피험자는 평균 체형의 미국 여대생 25명이며 기준 자세와 일상생활에 많이 쓰이는 $135^{\circ}$ 양팔들기, 어깨 구부리기, 어깨 들어올리기의 3가지 동적 자세를 실험 동작으로 하여 체표의 길이 및 둘레의 변화를 측정하였다. 기준 자세와 135"양팔 들기에 대한 측정치 비교에서 두 가지 측정법에 의한 항목들의 차이는 $-2\~20mm$였으나 두 동작 모두에서 목둘레만이 유의한 차이가 있는 것으로 나타났다. 또한 길이항목보다 둘레항목에서 좀 더 큰 차이를 보였다. 실험 동작에 의해 상반신 18개의 측정항목들은 유의한 체표변화를 나타내었으며 특히 어깨길이, 겨드랑앞벽사이길이, 겨드랑뒤벽사이길이 그리고 견봉사이길이에서 뚜렷한 변화가 나타났다. 그러나 두 측정 법에 따른 체표변화 차이는 없었다. 어깨 구부리기와 어깨 들어올리기 동작시에는 스캔 측정을 3회 반복함으로써 3차원 측정치의 신뢰도를 조사하였는데 모든 항목에서 3회 반복된 측정치가 통계적으로 동일한 것으로 나타났다. 또한 ScanWorX소프트웨어의 가상적 도구인 Body Measure와 자동 프로그램인 ScanWorX Tailor의 측정치를 비교한 결과 자동 측정치가 더 큰 값을 보였고 사용한 프로그램에 따른 유의한 차이를 나타내는 항목들이 나타났다. 이상의 결과로 3차원 인체 측정기를 사용함으로써 짧은 시간에 동작을 촬영하고 이에 대한 측정치를 얻을 수 있어 편리함과 신뢰도에 있어서 장점을 가짐을 확인할 수 있었다. 그러나 좀 더 다양한 분석과 정확한 결과를 얻기 위해서는 의복 분야에 유용한 자동 프로그램의 개발과 3차원 인체 측정기간의 호환성의 문제들이 요구된다고 할 수 있다.

Purpose: We investigated whether repeated irradiation with light-emitting diodes (LEDs) at a combination of 470 nm and 525 nm could suppress the progression of experimental periodontitis. Methods: A experimental periodontitis model was established in the second, third, and fourth premolars of the mandible in beagle dogs for 2 months. The spontaneous progression of periodontitis was monitored under the specified treatment regimen for 3 months. During this period, the animals were subjected to treatments of either plaque control only (control) or plaque control with LED application (test) at 2-week intervals. The clinical parameters included the probing pocket depth (PPD), gingival recession (GR), and the clinical attachment level (CAL). Histomorphometric analysis was performed using measurements of the length of the junctional epithelium, connective tissue (CT) zone, and total soft tissue (ST). Results: There were significant differences in PPD between the control and test groups at baseline and 12 weeks. When the change in PPD was stratified based on time intervals, it was shown that greater differences occurred in the test group, with statistical significance for baseline to 12 weeks, 6 to 12 weeks, and baseline to 6 weeks. There was no significant difference in GR between the control and test groups at any time points. Likewise, no statistically significant differences were found in GR at any time intervals. CAL showed a statistically significant difference between the control and test groups at baseline only, although significant differences in CAL were observed between baseline and 12 weeks and between 6 and 12 weeks. The proportion of CT to ST was smaller for both buccal and lingual areas in the control group than in the test group. Conclusions: Repeated LED irradiation with a combination of 470-nm and 525-nm wavelengths may help suppress the progression of periodontal disease.
