Purpose : The purpose of this study is to figure out the effects of Open Laser Microdiscectomy(OLM) on deep muscles by comparing multifidus and longissimus muscle size (cross section area; CSA) of pre and post operation. Methods : The subjects consisted of forty patients who had OLM. The data were analyzed with paired t-test comparing left and right deep muscle CSA of pre and post-operation, and both the deep muscle CSA of pre and post-operation, using SPSS ver. 15.0 program. Results : The results of this study showed a significant difference in deep muscle size (CSA) between pre and post operation (p<.05). Although there was not a meaningful difference between right and left deep muscle size (CSA) in pre operation (p>.05), there was a significant difference between both of them in post operation (p<.05). Conclusion : Therefore we made the conclusion that the operation causes decrease of muscle tone in deep muscles and muscle imbalance by causing muscle atrophy in the lumbar deep muscle after the operation.

Purpose: The purpose of this study was to characterize changes in back muscles in patients with chronic back pain. Accordingly, we studied 154 patients with chronic low back pain with regard to area, aspect and triggering position of the pain. We also determined muscle atrophy in painful areas. Methods: Subjects were questioned about pain and a pain provoking test was done. On Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI), we measured cross sections of the multifidus, erector spinae, iliopsoas and quadratus lumborum muscles at each spinal level. Results: Muscles in painful regions (multifidus and erector spinae muscles) decreased in area significantly more than nonpainful regions, and showed a significant difference (p<0.05) at levels L3, L4, and L5. Painful regions of the iliopsoas and quadratus lumborum did not change significantly more than non-painful regionsexcept at L5 (p<0.05). The group that had unilateral low back pain showed a significant decrease in cross section compared to the group that had central or bilateral pain (p<0.05). Conclusion: Chronic low back pain causes variable decreases in cross-sectional areas of some but not all back muscles, and at some but not all spinal levels.

The purpose of this study was for analysis of ease about basic bodice pattern, as the first step of the research process for the drawing method of basic bodice for women in their twenties. The five selected basic bodice were made and they were worn by FRP body The garment space of each bodice was measured by analysis of the garment space of each section in figure of polymerization of cross section by a 3-D measuring instrument. The research suggests that this compared analysis is an objective reference. This analysis not only of the area of cross section of garment space and ease but also of the girth of the body shape and wearing shape, using the PAD system and 3-D measuring instrument, can be helpful in making garment patterns.

TBM 공법 적용을 위한 도로터널 단면의 국내 외 설계사례와 시공사례 및 터널단면 설계기준을 조사 분석하였다. 교통량에 따라 차로수의 규모 및 내부형상(단층 혹은 복층)이 상이하였고, 상 하부의 여유공간은 환기, 방재시설 및 유지관리 공간 등으로 다양하게 활용하고 있음을 확인하였다. TBM도로터널의 구성요소별 면적비를 확인하기 위하여 2차로 규모의 표준단면을 가정하고, 길어깨 폭원변화에 따른 내공단면 구성요소(시설한계 수용공간, 상부여유공간, 하부여유공간)의 단면적비를 분석하였다. 아울러 도로터널에 필수적으로 설치되는 차도 슬래브의 지지형식별 소요두께를 구조해석을 통하여 산정하였고, 산정된 벽체 및 슬래브 두께와 하부 여유공간의 상관관계를 분석하여 유효단면적 범위를 제시하였다.

근래에 와서 도로교량의 형식 선정에서 미관에 대한 고려가 더욱 더 강조되는 추세 있으며, 미적으로 뛰어난 곡선교의 가설이 자연적으로 선호된다. 전달행렬법은 이론의 체계가 알기 쉽고, 응용범위가 넓은 점에서 구조해석법으로 범용성이 있는 것으로 주목되어 왔다. 전달행렬법에 의한 변단면 곡선 상자형교의 정적해석을 유한요소법과 비교하여 잘 일치함으로써 프로그램의 타당성을 검증하였다. 곡률반경과 중심각에 따른 해석 및 변단면 곡선식에 따른 지간비를 구하여 최적지간비와 변단면 비를 순수비틂이론에 의한 해석치를 분석하였다.

휴대용 방광 용적 측정시스템을 위한 새로운 추정 알고리듬을 제안하였다. 먼저 주어진 화상 데이터로부터 방광벽과 소변의 경계 끝점을 추출하고, 이로부터 축의 길이를 계산한 후 필터링하여 단면을 얻는다. 방광의 모양의 불규칙성을 고려하여 종단면과 횡단면 두 개의 데이터로부터 단면을 얻은 후 종단면으로 면적을 구하고 이를 횡단면에 적용하여 부피를 계산한다. 반대의 과정을 거쳐 또 하나의 부피 추정치를 얻고 이를 평균하여 실제 부피를 추정하였다. 제안된 알고리듬과 기존의 추정방법을 비교한 결과 제안된 방법에서 좋은 결과를 얻었다.

It is very important that there are saving resource and energy in the future as well as in these day. Weight saving of structural parts, which are formed by extrusion, plays a key role in manufacturing field. Especially these aluminum parts used in the car need other processes to vary the cross section in the axial direction. Thus, applications of these parts are limited by high cost. if the cross section of the parts is variable by only extrusion, application of extruded aluminum parts will more increase. Therefore, a new CNC extruder which can control the section area of a car part was invented the nation's first. Using the extrusion machine, the experiment and FE analysis were performed during the varied section extrusion process.

The objective of this study was to develop the simple method to estimate ungauged river section for flood stage analysis. Damage prediction should be prioritized using hydrological modeling to reduce flood risk. Mostly, the geographical data using hydrological modeling depends on national river cross-section survey. However because of the lack of measured data, it is difficult to apply to many local streams or small watersheds. For this reason, this study suggest the method to estimate unguaged river cross-section. Simple regression equations were derived and used to estimate river cross-section by analyzing the correlation between the river cross-sectional characteristics (width, height and area). The estimated cross-sections were used to simulate flood level by HEC-RAS (Hydrologic Engineering Center's River Analysis System). The applicability of this method was verified by comparing simulated flood level between measured and estimated cross-section. The water surface elevation of the flood stage analysis was 6.56-7.24 m, 5.33-5.95 m and 6.12-6.75 m for measured cross section, for estimated cross section and for estimated cross section based on DEM elevation, respectively. Further study should consider other factors for more accurate flood stage analysis. This study might be used one of the guidelines to estimate ungauged river section for flood stage analysis.

The problem of a concrete cross section under flexural and axial loading is indeterminate due to the existence of more unknowns than equations. Among the infinite solutions, it is possible to find the optimum, which is that of minimum reinforcement that satisfies certain design constraints (section ductility, minimum reinforcement area, etc.). This article proposes the automation of the optimum reinforcement calculation under any combination of flexural and axial loading. The procedure has been implemented in a program code that is attached in the Appendix. Conventional-strength or high-strength concrete may be chosen, minimum reinforcement area may be considered (it being possible to choose between the standards ACI 318 or Eurocode 2), and the neutral axis depth may be constrained in order to guarantee a certain sectional ductility. Some numerical examples are presented, drawing comparisons between the results obtained by ACI 318, EC 2 and the conventional method.

There is much room for consideration that the magnet design of UTM. When the vehicle runs 60mR curved line on test track, the ratio of cross section area changed to cross the magnet pole and rail. The ratio is reduced about 20% of the total magnet on one bogie. Therefor, magnet current is increased about 3.5A to maintain constant air gap. This paper suggest to margin of the magent design is 1.1 rather than rated levitation force.
