This study aimed to found out the effect of patellofemoral overlap distance by changing femur thickness and center X-ray angles in Merchant method images. Based on the femur thickness, it suggested tube angle minimizes overlap. It was conducted by Merchant method, a knee tangential view, and the image was obtained by changing the thigh thickness from 14 to 20 cm and the center ray angle from 60°, 57°, 55°. The images were measured by five researchers using a method of measuring the overlap, which was designed by them. The results showed at 60°, 57°, 55° angle, the patellofemoral overlap distance resulted in 0.47±0.66 to 20.89±0.65 cm, 2.26±0.28 to 15.73±0.62 cm, 1.39 ± 0.83 to 12.49 ± 0.37 cm. However, for 57° and 55°, no overlap in thickness under 14.5 and 14 to 15.5 didn't appear. it showed high correlation between femur thickness and overlap. The difference in the mean value of overlap in each group showed a statistically significant difference (p<0.01), all were classified as independent groups in the post-hoc test. In all images, the patellofemoral overlap distance increased as the thickness increased, and at the average thickness of Korean men and women, overlap decreased when reducing center ray. When conducting Merchant tests on Koreans, it was suggested it would be useful to use 57° angle because it minimize the effects of overlap and intrusions of tibia.

The principle of an illumination and projection system including LED light sources for a spot type stage lighting system was presented, and its optical system was designed with optimizing parameters by the analytical methods. A dichroic mirror incorporated with an illumination system to optimizing LED source positions and to obtain the compact system. The projection system was optimized with specific constraints such as a chromatic aberration, distortion aberration and angle of incidence angles. Optimized design system has a beam angle from $10^{\circ}$ to $45^{\circ}$, and its illuminance was 4,500lux at distance of 6m on the work plane.

The self-noise from blade cascade at off-design points mainly comes from separated boundary layer and vortex sheddings, and is also dependent on blade shape. If the incidence angle to the cascade increases, the stalling in blades may occur and the noise level increases significantly. The hybrid method using acoustic analogy was employed to compute the far-field noise spectra and directivity patterns from the separated vortex shedding at off-design points of the cascade of impeller. This paper is compared with the experimental data of a stationary cascade in the same conditions. The simulated result is in excellent .agreement with the measured data except th slight under-prediction near the maximum radiation angle for a dipole sound.

The paper deals with the energy transmission of the elastic waves obliquely transmitting and refracting through a plate and a pipe. By calculating the transmitting ratio depending on the incidence angle, the angle corresponding to the maximum transmission was determined theoretically and considered in the design of ultrasonic transducers for flow velocimetry. Experiments were carried out by using prototypes of the transducers. Experimentally-obtained transmission ratios were compared with and confirmed the theoretically-calculated results.

We have studied biofouling in Korea's offshore wind farms by using image analysis through monitoring and surface energy analysis. To observe the biofouling characteristics, samples were fabricated using Micron extra 2 and PropOne, which have a self-polishing property, and Hempathane HS 55610, which is used in substructure coatings. The manufactured samples were installed at the bottom of a ladder in a substructure, and monitored for 10 months. The most biofouling occurred in the sample without the self-polishing property, and algae, barnacles and corallinales were observed. The surface energy analysis used the Owens-Wendt-Rabel and Kaelble (OWRK) model, which uses the contact angles of two standard fluids. As a result of calculating the surface energy using contact angle measurement, the sample without the self-polishing property showed the highest value. This result was consistent with the biofouling incidence observed through monitoring.

The initial configuration for 95-seat passenger regional turboprop aircraft, the so called KC950, was designed to meet the market requirements. This paper prescribes the initial design based upon aircraft design guidelines and compared the competitive aircraft configurations after considering the related FAR 25 regulations. More specifically, results of design describe how to select the fuselage cross-sectional area, how to layout the cabin, and how to determine the overall shape and physical dimension of the fuselage. Sizing of wing and empennage areas is estimated using empirical equations and tail volume coefficients in this design. Some design guidelines to determine wing sweep angle, taper ratio, incidence angle and location are also introduced.

We studied prism design method for actual light source that have bulk in order to accomplish particular intensity distribution. When we know incidence angle and try to send ray to given direction, numerical formula that yields prism vertical angle, and then vertical angles were calculated sequentially. After analyzing problem that supposing to point light source, supplemented this and derived applicable prism design method on bulk light source. The intensity distribution and efficiency that came out by each design results were compared and analyzed, we got improved results through supplemented design method.

CFD simulation for Smart-UAV(TR-E2Sl) is performed to analyze its aerodynamic characteristics. Base geometry and several cases, decided by control surfaces being deflected, are simulated. To obtain the better lift characteristics, the elevator should be deflected between 10o and 20o with the incidence angle of the wing 1o.

In this paper, the motion performance in waves for the training ship Kaya of Pukyong National University is obtained by using a computer program based on Strip method. To guarantee the pleasant seafaring in ocean, the vertical acceleration of ship motion is calculated according to the location of the ship. The results of calculation by changes of ship speed are compared with the guideline of MSI(Motion Sickness Incidence). The degree of motion sickness is shown and discussed through the comparison between calculated vertical acceleration spectrum and MSI guideline. The computational results of MSI were as follow; when ship speed increased in the order of 5 knots, 10 knots, 12 knots and encounter angle became the bow quartering sea of $120^{\circ}$ compared to $180^{\circ}$ and $150^{\circ}$, the vertical acceleration values grew higher.
