Background Synocial chondromatosis(SC), a proliferative disorder of the synovial membrane. The etiology or cause of SC remains unclear. SC usually occurs in large articular joints such as knee, hip, elbow, and ankle. SC of the TMJ is very rare. It is a benign disease that mainly affects unilateral side. It can form cartilagenous and calcified loose bodies of various sizes and cause abnormal function of TMJ. Case Report In this paper, we report two cases of SC in the upper joint space of the left TMJ. One complained that "Sometimes the left jaw joint feels disoriented" and the other had no symptoms. CT scan and MRI showed left TMJ space widening, multiple tiny calcified mass. After clinical and radiographic analysis, we performed surgical removal of the lesion under genereal anesthesia. In the histologic examination, synovial chondromatosis was diagnosed in both patients. Conclusions We report two cases of synovial chondromatosis in the upper joint space of the left TMJ. We performed surgical removal of the lesion. The two patients showed good prognosis without recurrence or pain up to date.

This paper concerned with the behaviour of shaping formation and the erection for SCST structure by cable-tensioning for three kinds of structure models. The joint types of experimental models are ball type joints, bolt type joints with gusset plates, and bolt type joints. The feasibility of the proposed shaping method and the reliability of the established geometric model were confirmed with a nonlinear finite element analysis and an experimental investigation for full size scaled pyramid test model and three kinds of SCST structure models. The characteristic of the behaviour of each joint type is shown in the shaping test for practical design purposes. As a results, the behaviour characteristics of joints is very significant in shaping analysis of space structures. So the joint type should be considered in the design and analysis of the shape formation for space structures. Also, in the special field condition, it could be a fast and economical method for constructing the space structure.

The transposed Jacobian is proposed to transform the control space from task space to joint space, in this paper. Instead of inverse Jacobian, the transposed Jacobian is preferred to avoid singularity problem, short real time calculations and its generality to apply for rectangular Jacobian. On-line Jacobian identification is proposed to cancel parametric errors produced by D-H parameters of manipulator. To identify Jacobian, the joint angles and the end-effector position are measured when tracking a desired trajectory in task space. Stability of control system is analyzed. The control system is simulated for position control of a two-link manipulator driven by permanent magnet dc motors. Simulation results are shown to compare the roles of inverse Jacobian and transposed Jacobian for transforming the control space.

A general method of solving inverse kinematics of three-joint manipulator composed of revolute joints or prismatic joints or combinations of those joints is presented in this study. In completing real-time control, it is very important to obtain the closed form solutions of inverse kinematics rather than iterative numerical solutions, because iterative numerical solutions are generally much slower than the corresponding closed form solutions. If it is possible to obtain the inverse kinematic solutions for general cases of considering twist anlges and offsets, the manipulator work space can be designed and enlarged more effciently for specific task. Moreover, in idustrial manipulators, the effect of main three joints is larger than that of the other three joints related to orientation in the view of work space. Therfore the solutions of manin three-joint are considered. Even The inverse kinematic equations are complicatedly coupled, the systematical solving process by using symbolic calculation is presented.

The analysis of actuating forces (or torques) and joint reaction forces (or moments) are essential to determine the capacity of actuators, to control the system and to design the components. This paper presents an inverse dynamic analysis algorithm for flexible multibody systems with closed-loops in the relative joint coordinate space. The joint reaction forces are analyzed in Cartesian coordinate space using the inverse velocity transformation technique. The joint coordinates and the deformation modal coordinates are used as the generalized coordinates of a flexible multibody system. The algorithm is verified through the analysis of a slider-crank mechanism.

The purpose of this study was to evaluation of temporomandibulr joint space according to increasing the occlusal force on working and non-working side during unilateral bite. For the study, 22 normal adults, age ranged from 23 to 25, who had no symptoms on TMJ area and masticatory muscles and had normal or class I molar relationship were selected. Transcranial TMJ radiograph was taken during unilateral biting with sensor of Bite force checker (Nihon Kohden Kygyo Co.Ltd., Japan) on each 1st molar teeth of right and left side which were forced each 0Kg, 10Kg, 20Kg and 30Kg by use of Accurad-200 (Denar Corperation's product). The radiographs were traced on the screen, which was magnified by 5. The size of temporomandibular joint space at anterior, superior and posterior compartment were measured with Dumas's method (reference line of between squamotympanic fissure and the most inferior point of articular eminence). On the basis of this study, the following results were obtained. 1. Size of anterior TMJ space was tend to decrease on the working side and increase on the non-working side according to increasing the occlusal force, but not significant statistically (p>0.05). 2. Size of superior TMJ space was tend to increase on the working side and decrease on the non-working side according to increasing the occlusal force (p<0.05). 3. Size of posterior TMJ space was tend to decrease on both working ad nonworking side, but non significant statistically.

Background: Rotator cuff tears are often associated with synovitis, but the ability of noninvasive ultrasonography to predict the severity of synovitis remains unclear. We investigated whether ultrasound parameters, namely peak systolic velocity in the anterior humeral circumflex artery and Doppler activity in the glenohumeral joint and subacromial space, reflect synovitis severity. Methods: A total of 54 patients undergoing arthroscopic rotator cuff repair were selected. Doppler ultrasound was used to measure peak systolic velocity in the anterior humeral circumflex artery and Doppler activity in the glenohumeral joint and subacromial space, and these values were compared with the intraoperative synovitis score in univariate and multivariate analyses. Results: Univariate analyses revealed that tear size, peak systolic velocity in the anterior humeral circumflex artery, and Doppler activity in the glenohumeral joint were associated with synovitis in the glenohumeral joint (P=0.02, P<0.001, P=0.02, respectively). In the subacromial space, tear size, peak systolic velocity in the anterior humeral circumflex artery, and Doppler activity in the subacromial space were associated with synovitis severity (P=0.02, P<0.001, P=0.02, respectively). Multivariate analyses indicated that tear size and peak systolic velocity in the anterior humeral circumflex artery were independently associated with synovitis scores in both the glenohumeral joint and the subacromial space (all P<0.05). Conclusions: These findings demonstrate that tear size and peak systolic velocity in the anterior humeral circumflex artery, which can both be measured noninvasively, are useful indicators of synovitis severity.

본 연구에서는 터널을 굴착할 때 절리가 있는 암반의 역학적 거동특성을 실험적으로 규명하고자 하였다. 절리와 터널의 이격거리, 측압계수를 변화시키며 실험을 수행하였다. 터널주변에 수직절리가 있는 경우 천단부와 수직절리 반대편의 어깨부에서 가장 큰 영향이 발생되며 측압이 작을 경우에는 천단부 보다 절리 반대편 측벽부에서 접선 방향의 응력이 크게 증가된다. 반면 $45^{\circ}$의 경사절리가 있는 경우 발생하는 압축응력은 절리면 방향의 터널 좌측부가 무절리 상태의 3배정도로 터널의 안정성에 큰 영향을 미치는 것으로 나타났다.
