In the present paper, we study the geometric properties of the invariant submanifold of an almost Kenmotsu structure whose Riemannian curvature tensor has (𝜅, 𝜇, 𝜈)-nullity distribution. In this connection, the necessary and sufficient conditions are investigated for an invariant submanifold of an almost Kenmotsu (𝜅, 𝜇, 𝜈)-space to be totally geodesic under the behavior of functions 𝜅, 𝜇, and 𝜈.

Main objective of the present paper is to establish Chen inequalities for slant Riemannian submersions in contact geometry. In this manner, we give some examples for slant Riemannian submersions and also investigate some curvature relations between the total space, the base space and fibers. Moreover, we establish Chen-Ricci inequalities on the vertical and the horizontal distributions for slant Riemannian submersions from Sasakian space forms.

류마티스성 관절염 등의 관절 질환이나 내반 변형 등을 동반한 환자에게 정형외과적으로 인공슬관절 치환술을 시행하는데 수술용 금속정을 삽입할 때 대퇴체부의 휨 정도로 인해 대퇴피질부에 손상을 주거나 2차 골절 등의 부작용을 유발하기도 한다. 이때 대퇴체부의 중심 좌표값을 알면 금속정이 해부학적 모양의 중심으로 삽입될 수 있어 이러한 부작용을 예방할 수 있을 것이다. 본 연구에서는 인공슬관절 치환술이 필요한 10명의 환자와 대퇴골 질환이 없는 정상군 10명의 대퇴부 단층촬영영상을 이용하여 3차원 좌표값을 찾은 후 Matlab을 이용하여 중심좌표값을 찾아 해부학적 모양을 반영한 그래프를 얻었고, 구간별 3차원 곡률반경 값을 구하였다. 그 결과 실험군의 대퇴골 평균 곡률반경과 표준편차는 $758.15{\pm}206.3mm$로 측정되었고, 정상군은 $1672.97{\pm}395.6mm$로 측정되었다. 측정된 결과는 통계적 유의성 확보를 위해 f-검정을 실행하여 두 집단간 평균의 차이를 검증하였다. 이 결과로 미루어 실험군의 대퇴체부 휨 정도가 더 심함을 확일할 수 있었으며 이러한 영상 분석방법을 이용하여 해부학적 중심점을 찾는다면 인공슬관절 치환술 같은 정형외과적 수술에 도움이 될 것이라 사료된다.

비자성체의 자유곡면 자기연마 공정에서 자기력 세기의 향상은 매우 중요하다. 비자성체 자유곡면의 표면에 발생하는 자기력의 세기에 따라 자기연마 입자가 가지는 수직 절삭력이 변화하기 때문이다. 이러한 자기력 향상을 위하여 전자석 배열 테이블이 적용된 제 2세대 자기연마공정이 비자성체의 자유곡면 자기연마에 적용된다. 본 연구에서는 이러한 제 2세대 자기연마공정에서 전자석 배열 테이블에 발생하는 자기력 세기 향상을 위한 극성배열 방법을 제시하고 이를 알루미늄합금의 곡률 자기연마에 적용하였다. 그 결과 볼록 및 오목 형상에서 각각 S-N-S와 S-N-N-N-S 극성 배열에서 가장 높은 표면거칠기의 향상을 확인하였다. 또한 상승 가공경로에서 상대적으로 높은 표면거칠기 향상을 나타내었다.

Purpose: Changes in the curvature of the vertebral columns of elderly women with increasing age causes various side effects and disorders. Therefore, this study was conducted to evaluate the effectiveness of the 8-figure scapular brace to improve pulmonary function and balance ability based on lung capacity and foot pressure by increasing the vertebral curvature. Methods: Seventeen elderly women with a forward head posture were selected. Women were asked to wear the 8-figure scapular brace and the forced expiratory volume in 1 second (FEV1) and forced vital capacity (FVC) were measured, as were changes in foot pressure. Measurements were conducted three times each and the mean values were used for subsequent analyses. For static evaluation, we used the paired t-test to identify differences between pre and post values. Results: There was no significant difference in FEV1 and FVC before and after use of the brace (p>0.05); however, there was a significant decrease in forefoot pressure and an increase in rearfoot pressure following application of the brace (p<0.05). Conclusion: Application of the 8-figure scapular brace to correct vertebral curvature in elderly women influenced pressure distribution change from immediate effect body arrange of cervical and thoracic. However, wearing the 8-figure scapular brace may interfere with expansion of the chest and therefore respiratory muscle activity. Accordingly, it is necessary to apply appropriate treatment when wearing a scapular brace and to allow a sufficient intervention period while also providing therapeutic interventions such as posture correction or respiration training.

일반적으로 강콘크리트 합성형교는 불완전합성에 대한 해석의 복잡함 때문에 강재와 콘크리트 계면에서의 상대변위가 발생하지 않는 완전합성형으로 설계된다. 그러나, 이러한 설계는 기존 강합성형 의 거동을 평가하는 경우 실제 구조물의 내하력과 내구성을 정확하게 도출하지 못하게 된다. 이러한 경우에는 불완전합성이론을 이용하여 구조물의 거동을 정확히 반영해야 한다. 본 연구에서는 집중하중을 받는 단순합성형교에 대하여 처짐 거동을 고려한 불완전합성곡률의 변화양상을 확인하기 위하여 유한요소해석 모델을 이용하여 전단연결재의 배치간격과 배치열수 그리고 콘크리트 탄성계수를 매개변수로 선택하여 해석을 수행하였다. 본 연구의 결과로서 합성형의 처짐이 증가할수록 불완전합성 정도가 증가함을 알 수 있었으며, 콘크리트 슬래브에서 균열이 발생으로 인한 강성 및 강도의 감소가 합성정도에 큰 영향을 미치는 것을 알 수 있었다.

An analytical procedure to determine a proper profile of the spring rail that generates intended contact pressure distribution in the flat wiper blade is introduced. The flat wiper blade is one piece blade and subjected to pressing force at a center point. In this type of blade, contact pressure distribution in the tip of rubber strip is determined by the pressing force, the initial profile of the blade before contact and bending stiffness of the blade. Experimentally obtained bending stiffness of the blade assembly is almost identical to that of the spring rail. Principle of reciprocity has been used to define the initial profile of spring rail from the deformed profile that is assumed to be identical to the windshield glass profile. The procedure has been verified experimentally by measuring the contact pressure of the blade assembled with the spring rail designed by the procedure proposed here. Measured contact pressure distributions of the blades show good agreements with intended distributions over the entire blade span. Consequently, it can be concluded that proposed procedure has relatively good accuracy in developing the spring rail for flat blade having a specific contact pressure distribution.

An electromagnetic flowmeter, based on a magnetic induction principle; provides an obstructionless flowmeter that essentially averages the velocity distribution over the pipe cross-sectional area. To predict the installation effects, the flowmeter installed near $90^{\circ}$ elbow is simulated by using a commercial code FLUENT(ver. 4.48) for the laminar flow field and a code developed through this study for magnetic field. The installation effects of the flowmeter are estimated by varying a number of the dependent parameters such as the radius of the elbow(Rc=1D, 1.5D, 2D, 3D), the location, Reynolds number and the direction of electrodes plane(${\varphi}$). It was found that all these factors affect the performance of the electromagnetic flowmeter significantly. The longer installation distance from the elbow is not always optimal to minimize the error, and also there exists an optimal location to install the EMF for a minimum error. Especially the flow signal with the electrodes plane direction of ${\varphi}=45^{\circ}$ is shown to yield smallest measurement error regardless of the Reynolds number and the curvature of elbow.

Architectural fabrics membranes have not only the structural performance but also act as an efficient cladding to cover large areas. Because of the direct relationship between form and force distribution in tension membrane structures, form-finding procedure is an important issue. Ideally, once the optimal form is found, a uniform pre-stressing is applied to the fabric which takes the form of a minimal surface. The force density method is one of the most efficient computational form-finding techniques to solve the initial equilibrium equations. In this method, the force density ratios of the borders to the membrane is the main parameter for shape-finding. In fact, the shape is evolved and improved with the help of the stress state that is combined with the desired boundary conditions. This paper is evaluated the optimum amount of this ratio considering the curvature of the flexible boarders for structural configurations, i.e., hypar and conic membranes. Results of this study can be used (in the absence of the guidelines) for the fast and optimal design of fabric structures.

A computer program is developed for the prediction of the aerodynamic performance and the noise characteristics in the basic design step of axial flow fan. The flow field and the performance of fan are analyzed by using the streamline curvature computing scheme with total pressure loss and flow deviation models. Fan noise is assumed to be generated due to the pressure fluctuations induced by wake vortices of fan blades and to radiate via dipole distribution. The vortex-induced fluctuating pressure on blade surface is calculated by combining thin airfoil theory and the predicted flow field data. The predicted performances, sound pressure level and noise directivity patterns of fan by the present method are favorably compared with the test data of actual fan. Furthermore, the present method is shown to be very useful in optimizing design variables of fan with high efficiency and low noise level.
