Characteristics of joint orientation, length, spacing and their distribution are very important factors for slope stability, Especially, the effect of joint spacing is an essential factor of slope stability. This study is to analyze the effect of joint spacing in cases of sliding and toppling, which is a typical failure mode. Joint spacing can divided into vertical spacing(spacing) and horizontal spacing(gap). And then, the spacing/length ratio of joint directly affect rock slope failure. When the ratio is below 0.05, the possibility of failure is rapidly increased. In case of toppling, the possibility of failure depends on the ratio of spacing to height of slope ratio slope. As the ratio decreases, the possibility of toppling failure increased. The critical ratio of spacing to height of slope is determined by the dip angle of the slope and the orientation of joint sets.

Objective: The aim of this study was to investigate the periodicity of the lower extremity joint flexion/extension angle to compare the local stability between young and elderly women during walking on a treadmill. Method: Eighteen young women (mean $age=21.2{\pm}1.6y$; mean $mass=57.1{\pm}6.1kg$; mean $height=1.61{\pm}0.04m$) and 18 elderly women (mean $age=66.4{\pm}1.2y$; mean $mass=55.4{\pm}8.3kg$; mean $height=1.56{\pm}0.04m$) participated in this study. Approximate entropy (ApEn) was used to determine the periodicity in the lower limb joint angles. Results: The ApEn values of the two groups were statistically greater in the surrogate data test than in the original time series data (p<.05). The periodicity of the hip and ankle flexion/extension angles decreased in the elderly women group compared with the young women group (p<.05). The periodicity of the lower extremity joint flexion/extension angle showed that the ankle joint increased dominatingly in both groups (p<.05); the hip joint decreased compared with the knee joint in the young women group; and the knee joint decreased compared with the hip joint in the elderly women group (p<.05). Conclusion: These results suggest that the lower extremity joint flexion/extension angles of the young and elderly women during walking contained random noises as well as biological signals. In addition, the differences in the periodicity in the lower extremity joint between the young and elderly women may provide some insight in predicting potential falls and be used as a characteristic indicator for determining local stability in elderly women during walking.

Numerical analysis is important for the design, construction and maintenance of large caverns. The rock mass contains generally discontinuities such as faults, joints and fissures. The mechanical behavior and geometric characteristics of these discontinuities would have a significant impact on the stability of the caverns. In this research the Distinct Element Method(DEM) was used to analyze the structural stability of the large cavern. The Barton-Bandis Joint Model (B-B J.M) was used as a constitutive model for the joint. In addition, two different cases 1) analysis with a support system and 2) analysis with no support system, were analyzed to optimize a support system and to investigate reinforcing effects of a support system. The most significant parameters of in-situ stress, JRC of in-situ natural joints, and spatial distribution characteristics of discontinuities were acquired through field investigation. Displacement (horizontal, joint shear), maximum joint opening, maximum and minimum principal stresses, range of relaxed zone, rockbolt axial forces and shotcrete stresses were calculated at each excavation stage. As a result of analysis the calculated values proved to be under the allowable value Rockbolts also proved to be an efficient support measure to control joint shear displacement which had significant effects on extending the relaxed zone. As a consequence, the structural stability of the cavern was assured with an appropriate support system.

Author report a case of double metatarso-phalangeal joint transplantation to the elbow joint in the 31 years old female patient who have large bone defect associated with skin and soft tissue defect. The donor joints were second and third metatarso-phalangeal joint as double joint transfer fashion to enhance stability of graft. The graft based on dorsalis pedis vessel to anastomosed with radial artery of recipient site. The result is unsatisfactory because of long lasting lateral instability of reconstructed elbow joint in spite of 40 degree flexion motion and fair axial stability. We can conclude that joints from foot can not be an effective donor for biologic joint arthroplasty of elbow joint even though double metatarso-phalangeal joint were harvested.

인공관절은 관절부의 뼈가 파괴되거나 관절 손상을 입어 관절로서의 기능을 할 수 없게 된 경우에 사용된다. 고관절용 인공관절 시스템의 일차안정성을 평가하기 위해서는 인공관절이 삽입된 직후 인공관절에 반복하중을 가하여 대퇴골과 인공관절 사이의 상대변위를 측정하게 된다. 이때, 정확한 안정성을 평가하기 위해서는 인공관절이 대퇴골을 파고드는 변위와 대퇴골에서 인공관절이 회전한 각의 변화량을 정확히 측정하여야 한다. 본 연구에서는 고관절용 인공관절 시스템의 일차안정성을 평가하기 위해 새로운 상대 변위측정 방식을 제안하고 이를 이용하여 수술 방법의 차이 및 대퇴골 자체 강성의 차이에 따른 일차 안정성을 사체에서 얻은 대퇴골 실험을 통해 비교 평가하였다.

An essential consideration when analyzing the gait of walking robots is their ability to maintain stability during walking. Therefore, this study proposes a vertical waist-jointed walking robot and gait algorithm to increase the gait stability margin while walking on the slope. First, the energy stability margin is compared according to the posture of the walking motion on slope. Next, a vertical waist-jointed walking robot is modeled to analyze the stability margin in given assumption. We describe new parameters, joint angle and position of a vertical waist-joint to get COG (center of gravity of a body) in walking. Finally, we prove the superiority of the proposed gait algorithm using simulation and conclude the results.

Purpose : The objective of this study was conducted to find out the treatment of joint problems. Methods : This is a literature study with books, seminar note and international course books. Results : Passive oscillation and distraction movement therapy is only joint mobilization and pain control. In the joint therapy need muscle strengthening, training of eccentrical control and neurophysiological therapy for joint mobility, stability, stability of mobility and skill. Conclusion : Joint therapy is not only joint mobility but also strengthening of soft tissue. Need the neurophysiological therapy those are use of ventromedial motor nucleus and dorsolateral motor nucleus, reciprocal inhibition, eccentrical muscle contraction training, proprioceptors and exteroceptor for structures and functional activities. For the pain control, reduce swelling, keeping GAGs and functional activities need direct and indirect therapy.

This paper proposes a V-shaped Lyapunov function approach for the model-based control of flexible-joint robots, in which a new model-based nonlinear control scheme is designed based on a V-shaped Lyapunov function. The proposed control guarantees global asymptotic stability for link trajectory control while keeping all internal signals bounded. Since joint flexibility is used as a control parameter, the proposed control is not restricted by the degree of joint flexibility and be applied to flexibility-joint, partly-flexibility, or rigid-joint robots without modification. the effectiveness of the proposed control has been by computer simulation.

In complex waterproofing method, the stability of the joint is an important factor. The joints should not be broken for repeated movements and tensile forces. Therefore, we tried to confirm the stability of joints in newly developed joints and general joints. Repeated fatigue resistance performance tests and joint tensile strength tests were carried out on four types of joints. The fatigue resistance performance test showed no abnormality in all four types. It was confirmed that the newly developed top-down joint has higher stiffness than existing joints.

현장에서 측정된 절리 trace 길이에 의거하여 영속성을 산정할 수 있는 통계적 분석법을 개발하였다. 이 방법에서는 잠재적 키블록과 불연속면의 상대적인 규모에 따라 절리 trace 기링 또는 원형절리의 직경에 대한 확률밀도분포를 이용한다. 대규모 지하공동의 설계 및 안전적 굴착에 대한 개발된 분석법의 활용성을 설명하기 위하여 규모 및 영속성이 다른 잠재적 키블록의 안정성을 고찰하였다.
