  • A 3-year-old black Thoroughbred colt weighing 500 kg was admitted to the Equine Hospital of Korea Racing Authority (KRA) due to the chronic gait abnormality of the hindlimbs. The history revealed that the patient had run and fallen onto the fence of the farm about at the age of 1 year old and the lameness had been worsening insidiously since the accident. The degree of lameness was 2/5 in accordance with the AAEP lameness grading system in both hindlimbs at hand walking and trot. The lameness was exacerbated at lunging clockwise and counterclockwise on both hindlimbs. The definitive diagnosis of the bilateral osteoarthritis of coxofemoral joint was established using radiography under general inhalation anesthesia. The prognosis was considered to be poor with low expectancy for racing and the colt was expelled from the racecourse eventually. The clinicians are required to consider the possibility of osteoarthritis of coxofemoral joint presented with chronic hindlimb lameness although it is rare. This is the first report on the bilateral osteoarthritis coxofemoral joint in Republic of Korea.

  • Inverted maxillary incisor is that maxillary incisor rotates to the counterclockwise direction. The incisal margin and root apex of the impacted incisor is palpated at the mucobuccal fold near the labial frenum and on the palate among the rugae, respectively. Orthodontists confront ectopically erupting teeth in various locations. In the past, extraction of impacted teeth that deviated from their normal course of eruption had been performed indiscriminately. But, if it has not any clearcut contraindications, effeort should be made to achieve optimal esthetic results by conservative means, combining the skills of oral surgeon and orthodontist. The present report provides an illustration of satisfactory correction of a inverted maxillary incisor with surgical intervention and many springs that correct the tooth axis. This technique provides the clinician with an additional means to avoid unnecessary extraction of inverted teeth in certain cases.

  • This paper provides a new method of initializing neurons used in self-organizing neural networks and sequencing input nodes for applying to Euclidean traveling salesman problem. We use a general property that in any optimal solution for Euclidean traveling salesman problem, vertices located on the convex hull are visited in the order in which they appear on the convex hull boundary. We composite input nodes as number of convex hulls and initialize neurons as shape of the external convex hull. And then adapt input nodes as the convex hull unit and all convex hulls are adapted as same pattern, clockwise or counterclockwise. As a result of our experiments, we obtain l∼3 % improved solutions and these solutions can be used for initial solutions of any global search algorithms.

  • Experimental data for the flows in a mixing tank with a bottom agitator are useful for the validation of CFD commercial code. A hybrid volume PIV measurement technique was constructed to measure the flows inside of the mixing tank. The measurement system consists of three cameras. An agitator was installed at the bottom of the tank and it rotates clockwise and counterclockwise. Using the constructed measurement system, instantaneous vector fields were obtained. A phase averaging technique was adopted for the measured instantaneous three-dimensional velocity vector fields. Turbulent properties were evaluated from the instantaneous vector fields.

  • The purpose of this study was to investigate the kinetic factors of Stefan holm's take-off motion and provide the technical data. Collected data of the subject(height: 181 cm, weight: 71 kg, record: 230 cm) were used for the last two strides and take-off phase. The results were as follows: The vertical impulse force was 2044.8 N which was 2.49 times and the anterior-posterior impulse force was -1306.4 N which was 1.88 times of the subject's weight. The take-off leg angular velocities($\omega_x,\;\omega_y$) were switched drastically from clockwise to count clockwise direction between two-step touchdown and take-off. The highest jerk of the take-off foot was 368.97 m/s3 during the two step take-off and the take-off foot made an impact to the ground with 1225.07 m/s3 during the one step touchdown.

  • A two dimensional shallow-water flow around a cavity driven by a sinusoidally oscillating external flow was studied numerically with an Ekman pumping model. A container model of "T" shape was constructed in the numerical computation for comparison with the experimental observation. The material transport in the external region is in good agreement with the experimentally recorded particle trajectories. It turns out that two large coherent vortices situated in the exterior region of the cavity are responsible for clockwise and counterclockwise drift motions, in large scale, of particles. The Ekman pumping model suggested in this study was found to be satisfactory.isfactory.

  • In order to examine the validity of an asymptotic solution for nonlinear interaction in asymmetric vibration modes of a perfect circular plate, we obtain the numerical solution. The motion of the plate is governed by nonlinear partial differential equation. The initial and boundary value problem is solved by using the finite difference method. The numerical solution is compared with the asymptotic solution. It is found that traveling waves relating clockwise and counterclockwise as well as standing wave are depicted by the numerical solution.

  • To reduce the strength of tip vortex of the fixed wing, a horizontal wing-let splitted into two parts was utilized, and the interaction between vortices generated by these wing-lets was investigated by the hot-wire anemometry. The process of vortex forming and merging was clarified by measurements of velocity vectors and their contours at five downstream cross-sections; 0.05C(chord length), 0.2C, 0.5C, 1.0C and 2.0C. Both vortex-lets formed by each wing-lets rotate counterclockwise and merge into a larger single vortex within a short downstream distance, 0.5C in this case. The strength of the merged tip vortex turned out to become smaller than that of the plain wing tip near the vortex core.

  • A three-dimensional barotropic model is used to compute meteorologically-induced circulations in the East Sea for monthly, seasonal and annual basis. The computed barotropic responses have shown that in the upper part of the 40$^{\circ}$ North latitude. counterclockwise meso-scale eddies have been formed off Dong Han Man, middle part of the East Sea and sea area between the Siberian coast and Hokkaido throughout the year except summer season. These results are in good agreements with some of earlier schematic circulation diagram.

  • An ultrasonic motor is a motor which uses vibration -a type of elastic vibration- to obtain a driving force, which then drives the motor using friction. In this paper, mode conversion type - single resonance mode ultrasonic rotary motor that use langevin type ultrasonic vibrator was studied. This model was proposed for the first time by Japanese Kumada in 1985. In this study, finite element analysis (FEA) of a stator and bidirectional driving characteristic of a rotor was newly obtained. The amplitude and phase of displacement and elliptical trajectory of beam was confirmed by FEA The fabricated motor was operated to clockwise and counterclockwise in 40.8 [kHz] and 44.2 [kHz] respectively. But bidirectional driving characteristics did not coincide each other.
