  • This study is concerned with the shape optimization of stem for the artificial hip prosthesis with unbonded cement mantle. The artificial hip prosthesis with unbonded cement mantle allows a stem to slip on cement mantle because of polished stem surface. Unbonded cement mantle type has several advantages compared with bonded cement mantle type, for example, small micro motion, preventing stress shielding and so on. In this study, 2-dimensional axisymmetric model was developed with considering characteristics of unbonded cement mantle. Moreover, optimal shape of stem was obtained by using feasible direction method. The objective of this optimization is maximizing supported vertical loading. The slip motion and stresses of stem, cement mantle and bone is used for constraints. The optimal shape which obtained by this study has slope of 0.15 in proximal part and maintains the width about 5mm in distal part In addition, simplified 3-dimensional analysis which applying optimal shape is carried out. The result of 3-dimensional analysis showed that optimal shape has some advantages for cement mantle stress. However, more realistic 3-dimensional analysis which including bending effect, complex geometries etc. is needed in further research.

  • The shoulder is a complex joint and, by virtue of having a large range of motion, is inherently unstable, relying on the surrounding soft tissue structures for stability. The bony joint consists of the glenoid, acromion, and humoral head, while the soft tissues include the glenoid labrum, the glenohumeral ligaments. and coracoacromial ligament as well as the muscles of the rotator cuff, the long head of the biceps, and the scapulothoracic muscles. Dysfunction in any one of these components can cause shoulder problems. The throwing motion involves a series of phases that stress to their limits the dynamic and static restraints of the glenohumeral and scapulothoracic joints. . Therefore, maintaining a balance of proper biomechanical forces is essential to avoiding shoulder injuries in throwing athletes. Over the last decade, signficant advances have been made in the study and understanding of the shoulder mechanics, and pathophysiology of injury. Additionally, advances in surgical techniques, particularly arthroscopy , have aided in the diagnosis of and the developement of less invasive surgical treatments for injuries that do not respond to nonoperative measures. In this article, we reviewed the pathophysiology of injuries , diagnostic techniques, and surgical management of shoulder injuries in throwing athletes .

  • The purpose of this study was to estimate force of muscles that constituted the rotator cuff during elevation motion in scapula plane, using a skeletal muscle model and quantitatively evaluate rotator cuff function in vivo. A healthy volunteer was measured with an open MR and CT system at elevation positions in scapula plane (MR: $30^{\circ}$, $60^{\circ}$, $90^{\circ}$, $120^{\circ}$, $150^{\circ}$, CT: $0^{\circ}$). After reconstruction three-dimensional MRI-based and CT-based bone surface models, matched each models with registration technique. Then supraspinatus, infraspinatus, subscapularis, teres minor, deltoid (anterior, middle, posterior portions) represented as plural lines. These lines were proportional to physiologic cross-sectional area (PCSA) and defined straight line to bind origin and insertion. Force of supraspinatus became greatest at $59^{\circ}$ of elevation. Subsequently force of deltoid middle portion became greatest at $89^{\circ}$ of elevation. Infraspinatus and subscapularis were active at the meantime. In addition, supraspinatus was active during elevation. These results resembled clinical finding and were proved force couples that contribute to mobility and stability of shoulder complex.

  • This paper presents the replication of a desired vibration response by iterative learning control (ILC) system for a vibration motion replication actuator. The vibration motion replication actuator has parameter uncertainties including system nonlinearity and joint nonlinearity. Vehicle manufacturers worldwide are increasingly relying on road simulation facilities that put simulated loads and stresses on vehicles and subassemblies in order to reduce development time. Road simulation algorithm is the key point of developing road simulation system. With the rapid progress of digital signal processing technology, more complex control algorithms including iterative learning control can be utilized. In this paper, ILC algorithm was utilized to produce simultaneously the six channels of desired responses using the Stewart platform composed of six linear electro-magnetic actuators with Halbach magnet array. The convergence rate and accuracy showed reasonable results to meet the requirement. It shows that the algorithm is acceptable to replicate multi-channel vibration responses.

  • For long slender offshore structures, such as cables and pipe lines, their interaction with surrounding fluid flow becomes an important issue for global design of ocean systems. We employ a long circular cylinder as a representative case of slender offshore structure. A flexibly mounted cylinder in cross-flow generates complex vortex shedding and results in oscillation of the structure. In this paper, flow behind a circular cylinder at Re=100 is simulated. The vortex shedding pattern and flow induced motion are examined in the cross flow configuration as well as with various yaw-angled configurations. The "Lock-in" phenomenon is also observed when reduced velocity is approximately 4.0. The MAC Grid system, which is the typical grid system for Cartesian mesh and pressure correction methods, are used for solving the incompressible Navier-Stokes equations. Predictor/Corrector method is applied for obtaining a non-linear response of structure at the flexibly mounted. The existance and motion of the body is represented by the immersed boundary technique.

  • The technology development for ocean resources can be represented by the increase of water depth. TLP, Tension Leg Platform, is one of the most feasible systems for deep sea development. TLPs show a complex dynamic behavior resulting from the dynamic interactions among platform, tether system and riser system due to their hydrodynamic and structural dynamic characteristics in waves. This paper aims at the theoretical and experimental analysis on motion response of TLP in waves. It is composed of two parts as follows ;(1) wave and wave loadings (2) TLP motion.

  • The hydraulic system have been used much in a heavy machine which high power source is desired. In the case of the heavy press machine and the injection molding machine, the use of the hydraulic power is essential especially for increasing productivity and getting the good products. Because the hydraulic circuit is very complex and the system parameters are uncertain, the development of the simulation model for hydraulic system is not easy in the heavy machine. In this case, Many researchers have used a commercial program for analysis and development in a major field of study. In this paper, the aim is to develop the simulation model of the hydraulic system with various commercial program for trajectory tracking. And adaptive control method is applied to the simulation model for the trajectory tracking of a cylinder motion. Load on the cylinder is modeled in ADAMS program, the hydraulic circuit including pump, spool valve and cylinder is modeled in AMESim program and a controller is designed in MatLab/simulink program. The suggested model is applied for the tracking of a cylinder motion, and through computer simulation, its trajectory tracking performance is illustrated.

  • Social pedestrian groups are the basic elements that constitute a crowd; therefore, detection of such groups is scientifically important for modeling social behavior, as well as practically useful for crowd video understanding. A social group refers to a cluster of members who tend to keep similar motion state for a sustained period of time. One of the main challenges of social group detection arises from the complex dynamic variations of crowd patterns. Therefore, most works model dynamic groups to analysis the crowd behavior, ignoring the existence of stationary groups in crowd scene. However, in this paper, we propose a novel unified framework for detecting social pedestrian groups in crowd videos, including dynamic and stationary pedestrian groups, based on spatiotemporal-oriented energy measurements. Dynamic pedestrian groups are hierarchically clustered based on energy flow similarities and trajectory motion correlations between the atomic groups extracted from principal spatiotemporal-oriented energies. Furthermore, the probability distribution of static spatiotemporal-oriented energies is modeled to detect stationary pedestrian groups. Extensive experiments on challenging datasets demonstrate that our method can achieve superior results for social pedestrian group detection and crowd video classification.

  • This paper proposes a scheduling algorithm that can reduce the power consumed for execution of application programs and the communication cost incurred due to dependencies among tasks. The proposed scheduling algorithm can increase energy efficiency of the DVS(Dynamic Voltage Scaling) by estimating laxity usage during scheduling, making up for conventional algorithms that apply the DVS after scheduling. Energy efficiency can be increased by applying the proposed algorithm to complex multimedia applications. Experimental results show that energy consumptions for executing HD MPEG4, MotionJPEG codec, MP3, and Wavelet have been reduced by 11.2% on the average, when compared to conventional algorithms.

  • An experimental study is carried out to investigate the near-wake characteristics of a NACA 0018 foil with a flat plate. Two-frame grey-level cross correlation PIV method is used to measure the local flow characteristic around a pitch damping foil to control the vertical motion of high speed crafts in a circulating water channel. The analysis also includes angles of attack 10 and 20 degrees respectively. Reynolds number $Re{\fallingdotseq}3.5{\times}10^4$ based on the chord length(C=100mm) of NACA0018 has been applied during the whole experiments. The distance between the foil and the flat plate is D/C=0.5, 1.0 and 1.5 respectively. The channel effect according as the distance between the foil and the flat plate has a close relation with the velocity distributions around the foil. In the wake of 20-degree of attack, the complex turbulent flow and a thick boundary layer are formed due to the processes of vortex generation and dissipation.
