  • Purpose: This study examined the effects of flexible flatfeet on the accuracy of knee joint motions in closed and open kinetic chain tasks. Methods: Twenty-four healthy participants were recruited for this study. The subjects were divided into two groups using a navicular drop (ND) test: flexible flatfoot group (n=12, male: 6, aged $22.00{\pm}2.22years$) and age-matched control group (n=12, males: 6, aged $22.17{\pm}1.53years$). The accuracy of knee motion was measured quantitatively by tracing through the flexion and extension motion of the knee joints in the closed kinetic chain and the open kinetic chain. Results: There was a significant difference in the accuracy index between the groups in closed kinetic chain task, but there was no significant difference in the open kinetic chain task. In addition, there was a significant difference in the accuracy index between the closed kinetic chain and the open kinetic chain task in the flexible flatfoot group. In addition, a significant negative correlation was observed between the ND and accuracy index in the closed kinematic chain task, but there was no significant relationship between the ND and accuracy index in the open kinematic chain task. Conclusion: Flexible flatfeet can affect the accuracy of the adjacent joints, such as the knee joint in the closed kinematic chain.

  • 폴리(에틸렌 나프탈레이트)(PEN)의 사슬 배향과 이완이 PEN 유연기판의 치수안정성 및 광학 특성에 미치는 영향에 대하여 살펴보았다. 사슬이 배향된 PEN 기판은 사용온도 증가 시 PEN 분자 유동성을 감소시켜 $100^{\circ}C$ 이하에서 PEN의 열팽창계수(CTE)를 $20ppm/^{\circ}C$까지 감소시키나, 유리전이온도 근처에서 연신된 사슬의 이완에 의하여 열수축이 발생됨을 알 수 있었다. 유리전이온도 근처에서의 열처리는 이러한 열수축을 최소화시킬 수 있으나 사슬이완에 따른 PEN 분자의 경직성 또한 감소되어 열팽창계수가 연신 전 PEN의 고유 CTE의 65% 정도인 $70ppm/^{\circ}C$까지 다시 증가함을 확인하였다. 열처리 과정에서 연신된 필름에 응력을 가하지 않는 경우, 열수축 시작 온도 증가와 함께 열수축을 최소화할 수 있으며 연신에 의해 얻어진 낮은 CTE 또한 유지할 수 있었다. 배향에 의한 광 투과도 감소는 없는 반면 열처리는 미약한 결정화를 발현시켜 5% 정도의 광 투과도가 감소됨을 알 수 있었다.

  • Since the 9/11 terror attack, the event which caused supply chain disruption, supply chain security has becomes more important than ever before. Furthermore, such company's logistics strategies conflicting supply chain security as increased global sourcing, JIT manufacturing are increasing supply chain vulnerability. It could burden for global companies to strengthen supply chain security because not only it requires additional investment cost but also changes of companiy's global logistics strategy. However, on the other hand, supply chain visibility and resilience can be improved through supply chain security. In addition, it allows companies to stabilize supply chain structure as well as rapid and flexible response to market demand. The key issue is balancing between efficiency and supply chain security. To do this, identifying risk elements under the supply chain and assessing vulnerability of each supply chain components should be performed before developing efficient supply chain security management system without obstructing supply chain efficiency.

  • A statistical thermodynamic theory of thermotropic main-chain polymeric liquid crystalline melts is developed within the framework of the lattice model by a generalization of the well-known procedure of Flory and DiMarzio. According to the results of Vasilenko et al., the theory of orientational ordering in melts of polymers containing rigid and flexible segments in the main chain is taken into account. When the ordering of flexible segments in the nematic melt is correlated with that of rigid mesogenic groups, the former is assumed to be given as a function of the ordering of rigid mesogenic cores. A free energy density that includes short-range packing contributions is formulated. The properties of the liquid-crystalline transiton are investigated for various cases of the system. The results calculated in this paper show not only the order-parameter values but also the first-order phase transition phenomena that are similar to those observed experimentally for the thermotropic liquid-crystalline polymers and show the transitional entropy terms which actually increase upon orientational ordering. In the orientational ordering values, it is shown that mesogenic groups, flexible segments, and gauche energy (temperature) may be quite substantial. Finally, by using the flexibility term, we predict the highly anisotropic mesophase which was shown by Vasilenko et al.

  • In this paper, we introduce a new combinatorial auction mechanism - N-Bilateral Optimized Combinatorial Auction (N-BOCA). N-BOCA is a flexible iterative combinatorial auction model that offers optimized trading for multi-suppliers and multi-purchasers in the supply chain. We design the N-BOCA system from the perspectives of architecture, protocol, and trading strategy. Under the given N-BOCA architecture and protocol, auctioneers and bidders have diverse decision strategies for winner determination. This needs flexible modeling environments. Hence, we propose an optimization modeling agent for bid and auctioneer selection. The agent has the capability to automatic model formulation for Integer Programming modeling. Finally, we show the viability of N-BOCA through prototype and experiments. The results say both higher allocation efficiency and effectiveness compared with I-to-N general combinatorial auction mechanisms.

  • M2PI is an active single chain mini-proinsulin with a 9-residue linker containing the turn-forming sequence 'YPGDV' between the B- and A-chains, but which retains about 50% of native insulin receptor binding activity. The refolding efficiency of M2PI is higher than proinsulin by 20-40% at alkaline pH, and native insulin is generated by the enzymatic conversion of M2PI. The solution structure of M2PI was determined by NMR spectroscopy. The global structure of M2PI is similar to that of native insulin, but the flexible linker between the B- and A-chains perturbed the N-terminal A-chain and C-terminal B-chain. The helix in the N-terminal A-chain is partly perturbed and the ${\beta}$-turn in the B-chain is disrupted in M2PI. However, the linker between the two chains was completely disordered indicating that the designed turn was not formed under the experimental conditions (20% acetic acid). Considering the fact that an insulin analogue, directly cross-linked between the C-terminus of the B-chain and the N-terminus of the A-chain, has negligible binding activity, a flexible linker between the two chains is sufficient to keep binding activity of M2PI, but the perturbed secondary structures are detrimental to receptor binding.

  • 층상구조의 폴리이미드 제조를 위해 다양한 곁가지 길이를 가지고 있는 두 종류의 디아민 단량체를 합성하였으며, 이를 이용하여 친수성 유연 곁가지와 친유성 유연 곁가지를 가지는 단일 중합 및 공중합 폴리이미드를 합성하였다. 강직한 주사슬의 충간은 유연한 곁가지로 인해 공간이 채워지게 되므로 곁가지의 길이가 특정 길이에 이르게 되면 주사슬과의 반발력으로 인하여 층상구조를 갖는 폴리이미드를 형성하게 된다. 친유성기를 도입한 단일중합체 폴리이미드의 경우 알킬곁가지의 길이가 증가함에 따라 층간거리가 $32.7\~48{\AA}$으로 증가하였고, 친수성기를 곁가지의 길이에 따라 도입한 경우에는 $7\~10.5{\AA}$으로 증가함을 X선 회절을 통해 확인하였다. 친유, 친수성기가 동시에 도입된 공중합체 폴리이미드의 경우에도 서로 다른 성질을 갖는 곁가지의 반발력에 의해 층상구조의 형성이 가능함을 알 수 있었다. 이를 분자모델링을 통한 이론적 구조계산과 비교해 본 결과, 유연한 곁가지의 길이에 따라 층간간격과 몰부피가 증가하는 층상구조의 폴리이미드 형성을 확인하였다.

  • We have investigated the EO characteristics generation of pretilt angle for a nematic liquid crystal (NLC) alignment with photoalignment method on three kinds of photopolymer surfaces using polymer substrates. The LC homogeneous alignment were observed on the PMI3CA (N-(phenyl)maleimide with 3-carbon chain cinnamoyl group) and PMIF (N-(phenyl)maleimide including fluoro cinnamoyl group). However, the homeotropic alignment on the PMI5CA(N-(phenyl)maleimide with 5-carbon chain cinnamoyl group) was obtained. Also, EO characteristics of the flexible photoaligned TN-LCD using PMIF surface are better than that of the flexible TN-LCD using PMI3CA surface. Also, the stable EO performances of flexible photoaligned VA-LCD using the PMI5CA surface was observed.
