Purpose: The purpose of this study was to examine changes of postural sway between the normal group and treatment group of same people through COP movements. Methods: Fifty men with no history of sensory, neurological and orthopedic disorders were participated in this study. Participants were tested on single limb balance during 30 seconds on EMED system with bared foot. Each of them performed two methods and 5 trials totally each method: (1) non-treated group (2) treated group(with big toe flexion limitation). Data on the moving length, average velocity, instantaneous maximum velocity, mediolateral(x axis) maximum velocity, and anteroposterior(y axis) maximum velocity of COP were measured in single limb standing position. Results: The moving length and average velocity of COP were significant difference between normal and treatment group(p<0.05). On correlation of parameters, the faster average velocity of COP, the higher moving length, instantaneous maximum velocity, mediolateral maximum velocity, and anteroposterior maximum velocity of COP increase. The more Instantaneous maximum velocity of COP, the faster is anteroposterior maximum velocity of COP. Conclusions: Limitation of big toe flexors function affected single limb balance of the normal.

The development of a prototype for a Bridge Transported Servo Manipulator (BTSM) system operating in a hot cell is introduced. Mechanical master-slave manipulators (MSMs) which are mounted on the hot cell wall cannot access all the areas for the equipment maintenance due to their reach limitation. The BTSM has been developed to overcome the limitation of access that is a drawback of the MSMs for the equipment maintenance. Wire driven mechanisms have been adopted to increase the handling capacity to weight. This system can be a useful reference for designing other devices in the nuclear industry.

The recent advance of sensor networks and ubiquitous techniques allow collecting and analyzing of the data which overcome the limitation imposed by time and space in real-time for making decisions. Also, analysis and prediction of collected data can support useful and necessary information to users. The collected data in sensor networks environment is the stream data which has continuous, unlimited and sequential properties. Because of the continuous, unlimited and large volume properties of stream data, managing stream data is difficult. And the stream data needs dynamic processing method because of the memory constraint and access limitation. Accordingly, we analyze correlation stream data using principal component analysis. And using result of analysis, it helps users for making decisions.

This study is a descriptive research one and its purpose is to understand subjective xerostomia, JFL and quality of life of the elderly and to apprehend its variable correlation and variables which influence on the OHRQOL. Subjects in this study were over 65-year-old the elderly in city B and the data of 116 ones were collected using the questionnaires from May 6, 2013 to June 7 from them. Collected data were analyzed as descriptive statistics, t-test, one-way ANOVA, Sheffe, Pearson's correlation coefficient and Multiple Regression using program SPSS 18.0. The most influenced factors of OHRQOL were JFL(${\beta}$=-.366), xerostomia(${\beta}$=-.248) and diseases of oral cavity (gingivitis)(${\beta}$=-.172) in order. These factors occupied 73% of OHRQOL. Therefore, development of nursing intervention to develop a program for the improvement in behavior and education to reduce xerostomia, JFL, gingivitis and to improve the OHRQOL elderly development of nursing interventions are required.

Global warming also has effects on the phenology. The limitation of phenology study is an acquisition of phenology data. Satellite images analysis can make up limitation of monitering data. This study is to analyze spatial distribution and characteristics of phenology changes using MODIS images. Research data collected images of 16 day intervals of 11 years from year 2001 to 2010. The data analyzed 228 images of 11 years. It can figure out changes of phenology by analyzing enhanced vegetation index of MODIS image. We made a comparison between changes of phenology and flowering of cherry blossoms. As a results, Startup of season spatially was getting late from southern area to north area. Startup of Phenology was foreshortened 13 days during 11 years, and change ratios of cherry blooming was getting more faster from 0.18 dat to 0.22 day per year during that same period.

During the period of past fifteen years (1992~2006), variations of chlorophyll a in relation with water quality in freshwater reservoirs were investigated. This study compared total nitrogen (TN), total phosphorus (TP), chlorophyll a, Secchi depth (SD) and total suspended solids (TSS) between terrestrial freshwater reservoir and coastal freshwater reservoir systems based on their location. Regression analyses (linear and non-linear regressions) were applied for all study sites to examine relationship and interaction of these factors in the freshwater systems from in-land to coasts. The results demonstrated that chlorophyll a was significantly correlated to total phosphorus ($R^2=0.94$, P<0.0001) and was remarkably related to TSS increase ($R^2=0.63$, P<0.0001) in the selected reservoirs. The TN : TP ratio in the reservoir systems was higher than Redfield ratio (16 : 1) indicating that the reservoirs are potentially experiencing P limitation. Water quality of coastal freshwater reservoir system was more significantly decreased than the reservoirs located in in-land during the past fifteen years. The strict management of nutrient discharge into freshwater systems should implemented in the coastal reservoirs since the freshwater is introduced into coastal estuarine systems.

This paper aimed to exam relationship of lohas image, costomer satisfaction, switching barrier, revisit intention to fast food store. To accomplish this purpose, this study examined previous studies and summarized. 400 questionaries were distributed to the people living in Daegu/Gyeong-Buk. 381 questionaries were obtained and 331 data were analyzed by frequencies, correlation, multiple regression. The results of this study are as follows; First, it is shown that lohas image have a positive influence on the customer satisfaction(p<0.01). Second, it is shown that lohas image have a positive influence on the switching barrier(p<0.01). Third, it is shown that customer satisfaction have a negative influence on the switching barrier(p<0.57). Fourth, it is shown that lohas image have a positive influence on 1he revisit intention(p<0.05). Fifth, it is shown that customer satisfaction have a positive influence on 1he revisit intention(p<0.01). Sixth, it is shown that switching barrier have a positive influence on 1he revisit intention(p<0.01). This study, however, have limitation in obtained sample and area. The future study should consider these limitation to improve model applicability in practice.

The city means not only a geographical area as a role of the spatial boundary, but also a socio-economic place to communicate with each part. It requires various functions to get the income and activities. But city has a limitation of a available land to provide the required function and a sufficient space to supply the activity. Therefore, the development trend of city has not been to spread to the horizontal area any more and considered the vertical area. In addition, various functions put into a massive building because many people want to solve the daily requirements without spending time and cost. In this paper, it aimed at classifying the mixed-use building into function, circulation, relation between the public and private space and the building shape to provide the design information according to the development constraints such as land area, functional limitation, accessibility, etc. The classification of the mixed-use buildings is divided into four areas. The data are collected with foreign countries in Japan, Europe and US.

Clinicians are familiar with limitation of opening mouth caused by temporomandibular disorders. Sometimes, patients also complain of difficulty in closing mouth. Difficulty in closing mouth can be caused by anterior, posterior disc displacement, and subluxation of temporomandibular joint (TMJ). In this report, we presented a patient who had a difficulty in both opening and closing mouth. The patient complained of TMJ noises and intermittent limitation of opening mouth, and inability to get teeth back into maximal intercuspal position. Magnetic resonance images revealed that the left TMJ had an anterior disc displacement with relative posterior disc displacement. We reviewed the possible causes, signs and symptoms, and treatment for difficulty in closing mouth with related literatures.

Desmoplastic fibroma is a rare. benign intraosseous fibroblastic tumor. which is locally aggressive. It is osseous counterpart of soft tissue fibromatosis. The authors experienced the patient who complained persistent mouth opening limitation with mild swelling on the left mandibular angle area. After careful analysis of clinical. radiological and histopathological findings. we diagnosed as desmoplastic fibroma of the mandible. The results were as follows: 1. Main clinical symptoms were mouth opening limitation which had been persistent for 9 months and mild swelling on the left mandibular angle area. 2. Radiographs showed the radiolucent lesion and expansion of lingual cortex. CT finding is homogeneous soft tissue mass with expansion of left mandibular ramus. Destruction of medial wall of ramus and invasion to adjacent soft tissue is also seen. 3. Histopathologically, plump spindle shaped fibroblasts arranged in bundles or fascicles are observed. The cells of tumor are infiltrating into muscle fiber with destruction of bony trabeculae and merged with surrounding salivary gland.
