We discussed four different methods - the single, double and triple Gaussian fits, and the intensity weighted centroid fit - which extract rotation curves from several emis-sion lines(i.e. [OII], $H{\beta}$, [OIII], and $H{\alpha}$) of spiral galaxies. Spatial extents and the shapes of rotation curves derived through various methods applying to each emission lines of a sample galaxy UGC 11635 are all in a good agreement with one another. Linewidths of $H{\beta}$ and $H{\alpha}$ measure from rotation profiles are in a good agreement with $H{\alpha}$ linewidth of Courteau (1992). however, linewidths of [OII] seems to be much broader than $H{\alpha}$, and the profile of [OIII] does not follow the profile of $H{\alpha}$.

This Paper presents a geometrically nonlinear behaviors of shell problems by using the three-dimensional curved shell element, which includs large displacements and large rotations. The standard formulation of the geometrically nonlinearity is restricted to the assumption of infinitesmal rotation increments. This standard formulation for the displacement function is numerically improved by considering the second order expansions of Tayler series. The nonlinear behaviors of the single and double curved shells are compared wi th the other results.

This paper investigates the load sharing of double circular arc helical gears considering the influence of assembly errors. Based on a load sharing formulae, a three-dimensional finite element tooth contact analysis (TCA) is implemented with commercial software package ANSYS. The finite element grid for the double circular arc gear contact model is automatically generated by using the APDL (ANSYS Parameter Design Language) embedded in ANSYS. The realistic rotation of gears is achieved by using a coupling degree-of-freedom method. Numerical simulations are carried out to exemplify the proposed approach. The distribution of contact stress and bending stress under specific loading conditions are computed and compared with those obtained from Hertz contact theory and empirical formulae to demonstrate the efficiency of the proposed load sharing calculation formulae and TCA approach.

Most partial hand amputees experience limited wrist movement, which hinders the efficient functioning of upper limb, affecting hand-to-use coordination and the usability of the prosthetic hand. This limitation can lead to secondary musculoskeletal issues due to repetitive compensatory movement patterns. However, current partial hand prosthetic lack rotational wrist movement due to challenges in accommodating various hand shapes and limited space. In our study, we proposed a prosthetic hand with a wrist rotation module for partial hand amputees, aiming to reduce compensatory movement. To validate the proposed wrist rotation module, we conducted motion analysis during reach-to-grasp task. Furthermore, during the Jebsen-Taylor hand function test, we evaluated both the effect on upper limb movement and the usability of the prosthetic hand, comparing configurations with and without the wrist rotation module. The results showed that the prosthetic hand equipped with rotational wrist movements reduces compensatory movements and promotes efficient upper limb movement patterns. This finding highlights the value of incorporating a wrist rotation module in prosthetic hands to improve upper limb movement for partial hand amputees.

Purpose: Arthroscopic repair of rotator cuff tears are many techniques that have been developed to improve the initial postoperative strength of the repair. There was a doubt that current arthroscopic cuff repairs using a single row of suture anchors reproduce insufficient area of the anatomic cuff insertion, and concerns about failure of fixation often lead surgeons to limit early motion. Newer technique of double-row repair in arthroscopic treatment may provide initial stronger fixation and more contact with bone at the repair site than single-row repair did. We studied the comparison between clinical outcomes of arthroscopic single- and double-row repair in cuff tears at 1year postoperatively. Materials and methods: We retrospectively analyzed 40 shoulders with single-row repair and 38 shoulders with double-row repair of full-thickness rotator cuff tears between May 2002 and October 2004. Out of total 78 shoulders, 42 (54%) were male patients and 36 (46%) were female patients and the mean age at surgery was 56 years. All patients were diagnosed by physical examination and MRI. At 1year' follow-up after operation, we evaluated with the ASES and the Constant scoring system, and measured muscle power of abduction, internal and external rotation of the affected shoulder then compared with each other. Results: Mean ASES scores and Constant scores in double-row repair group improved more than single-row repair group significantly at 1year postoperatively. Muscle power of abduction and internal rotation, especially abduction power, improved more significantly in double-row repair group than in single-row repair. Conclusion: Arthroscopic double-row repair for the full thickness rotator cuff tear may be a superior technique, which showed better clinical outcomes and restoration of muscle power compared with single-row repair at relatively short period of postoperative follow-up. Restoration of footprint close to normal anatomy by double-row repair seems to play an important role in the recovery of muscle strength.

전방십자인대 부상은 스포츠 활동 중에 빈번하게 발생하며 주로 수술적 치료가 행해진다. 전방십자인대는 전내측과 후외측 다발로 구분되는데 주로 전내측 다발만 재건되는 한다발 재건술이시술되고 있다. 후외측 다발은 경골의 내회전을 복원하는데 효과적이라는 실험 결과가 보고된 바있지만 부상을 야기하는 역동적인 착지동작에서의 역할에 대한 연구가 필요하다. MRI 영상을 이용하여개발된 3차원 슬관절 모델에 인체실험 자료를 입력한 시뮬레이션으로 착지동작 시에 후외측 다발 및두다발 재건술이 얼마나 경골의 내회전을 제어하는지 알아보았다. 본 연구는 후외측 다발 방향의재건이 전내측 다발보다 착지동작 시에 경골 내회전을 효과적으로 감소시키며 두다발 재건술 또한슬관절 회전 안정성을 향상시킴을 밝혔다.

본 논문에서는 지문입력에서 회전에 의한 오차를 줄이는 방법으로 기존의 지문 입력기를 개선한 새로운 지문 입력 방법을 제안한다. 일반적인 지문 센서는 센서 위에 손가락을 올려서 지문 영상을 획득하는데 주의를 해도 회전이 발생하여 인식률에 영향을 미친다. 개선된 입력 방법은 엄지와 검지의 사이에 지문입력기를 두어 회전을 최소화하는 방법이다. 반도체 지문 입력기를 양쪽으로 부착하여 엄지와 검지를 동시에 집게 형태로 쥐어서 지문을 입력하는 방법이다. 이 방법은 지문을 획득할 때 마다 거의 같은 각도를 유지한다. 실험결과 제안된 방법이 인식률이 향상되었다. 단점으로는 하드웨어 비용이 더 추가 된다.

Objective: This paper analyzes the changes on stride parameters, joint angles, and trajectories of the body parts due to high heels during walking and explains the causal relationship between the changes and high heels. Background: This study aims to indicate the comprehensive gait changes by high heels on the whole body for women wearing high heels and researchers interested in high-heeled walking. Method: The experiment was designed in which two different shoe heel heights were used for walking (1cm, 9.8cm), and twelve women participated in the test. In the experiment, 35 points on the body were tracked to extract the stride parameters, joint angles, and trajectories of the body parts. Results: Double support time increased, but stride length decreased in high-heeled walking. The knee inflexed more at stance phase and the spine rotation became more severe. The trajectories of the pelvis, the trunk and the head presented outstanding fluctuations in the vertical direction. Conclusion: The double support time and the spine rotation were changed to compensate instability by high heels. Reduced range of motion of the ankle joint influenced on the stride length, the knee flexion, and fluctuations of the body parts. Application: This study can provide an insight of the gait changes by high heels through the entire body.

Quadrature spatial modulation (QSM) utilizes the in-phase and quadrature spatial dimensions to transmit the real and imaginary parts, respectively, of a single signal symbol. Improved QSM (IQSM) builds upon QSM to increase the spectral efficiency by transmitting the real and imaginary parts of two signal symbols using antenna combinations of size of two. In this paper, we propose a double QSM (DQSM) scheme that transmits the real and imaginary parts of two signal symbols independently through any of the transmit antennas. The two signal symbols are drawn from two different constellations of the same size with the first symbol drawn from any of the conventional modulation sets while the second is drawn from an optimally rotated version of the first constellation. The optimum rotation angle is obtained through extensive Monte Carlo simulations to minimize the bit error rate (BER) of the system. Simulation results show that for a given spectral efficiency, DQSM performsrelatively close to IQSM while requiring a smaller number of transmit antennas, and outperformsIQSM by up to 2 dB when the same number of antennas are used.

In case of skeletal Class III malocclusion with underdeveloped maxilla, the extraoral orthopedic force for the stimulation of maxillary growth or anterior reposition of the maxilla has been used clinically for the improvement of facial skeletal relationship. The purpose of this investigation was to examine the initial reaction of maxillofacial complex to the maxillary protraction by using extraoral orthopedic force. The dried human skull was used and this investigation was done by means of double exposure holographic interferometry. The protraction forces placed on the canine or the first molar were parallel, $10^{\circ}$ downward, $20^{\circ}$ downward to the occlusal plane. Fringe pattern of each protraction condition was compared and analized. The results were as follows: 1. Each maxillofacial bone displaced saparately. 2. More displacement was shown at the area of the teeth and the alveolar bone. 3. A counterclockwise rotation of the maxilla wa decreased by downward protraction and especially 20 degree downward protraction from the canine showed least rotation. 4. On the zygomatic arch, outward bend was observed and this effect was decreased by downward protraction. 5. On the zygomatic bone, the counter clockwise rotation was increased by the downward protraction. 6. When maxillary expansion was applied at the same time, outward and upward displacement with counterclockwise rotation was observed on the maxilla. 7. The lateral pterygoid plate of sphenoid bone was affected by maxillary protraction.
