Purpose: The purpose of this study was to investigate the influence of opposite lower extremity lateral muscle activation by proprioceptive neuromuscular facilitation (PNF) exercise targeting the lower extremities. Methods: Nineteen patients with chronic hemiplegia volunteered to participate in this study. PNF flexion, abduction, and internal rotation patterns; initial, end range, and extension patterns; abduction and internal rotation patterns; and initial and end range patterns were applied to the dominant lower extremity. Activation of lateral muscles (multifidus, gluteus medius, tensor fascia lata, and peroneous longus) of the paralyzed leg was then measured by electromyography (EMG). Results: There were significant differences in lateral muscle activation, depending on the PNF pattern applied, with the differences more significant in flexion, abduction, internal rotation, and end range patterns. Conclusion: PNF flexion, abduction, and internal rotation patterns can improve lateral muscle activation of one leg in the standing position in the gait cycle.

Micro-LEDs can be applied to various parts of a product. However, it has disadvantages compared to general LEDs in large displays such as low efficiency, intensity, and contrast ratio, among others, owing to their short history of study. The simulations were carried out using ray-tracing software to investigate the change in light intensity and light distribution according to pattern shapes on the sapphire substrate of the flip-chip micro-LED (FC μ-LED) array. Three patterns-concave square patterns, convex square patterns, and Ag coated convex patterns-which existed on the opposite side of FC μ-LEDs (115 ㎛ × 115 ㎛) array, were applied. The intensity of FC μ-LEDs on the center of the receivers depends on the pattern depth with shape. The concave square patterns having FC μ-LEDs arrays show that decreasing intensity as the patterns depth. On the contrary, the convex square patterns having FC μ-LEDs arrays shows that increasing intensity as the patterns depth. In addition, the highest intensity shows that FC μ-LEDs having Ag-coated convex patterns on the opposite side of sapphire lead to a reduction in light crosstalk owing to the Ag film.

A switchable Yagi-Uda antenna prototype with radiation pattern reconfiguration is presented in this letter. The proposed reconfigurable antenna is based on the concept of switching between the reflector and director of a Yagi-Uda antenna using a radio frequency PIN diode. As a result, the minimum/maximum radiation can be steered towards desired signals or away from interfering signals in opposite directions. The measured 10 dB impedance bandwidth and gain are 210 MHz (7%) and 8.02 dBi at 3 GHz, respectively. Details of the antenna design and its performance are described and empirically analyzed.

Studies on the flow pattern due to reclamation in the Myunggi-Nocksan region are carried out based on field observations and numerical experiments. Serial time series measurement of current, temperature and salinity were conducted for 1 tidal period at intervals of 1 hour from surface to bottom on station located at 128.deg. 54' 44" E, 35.deg. 01' 04" N in April and June 1992. Surface current opposite to the subsurface current causes turbulent mixing to make homogeneous salinity pattern in vertical section. Reclamation has little effect on the wave pattern and flow patterns are also nearly similar except on the nearby region of reclamation where flow speed somewhat weakened.

The anatomical and physical properties of tension wood (TW), opposite wood (OW) and lateral wood (LW) in the branches of Korean paulownia (Paulownia coreana) were compared. The diameter of TW vessels was larger than that of OW and LW vessels. The most distinctive feature of TW fibers was the presence of a gelatinous layer (G-fiber). The cell wall of TW fibers was nearly three times as thick as that of OW and LW. TW differed from OW and LW in density, X-ray diffraction pattern and shear and compressive strengths. The results obtained in this study showed clear differences in the anatomical and physical properties of TW, OW and LW of Paulownia coreana branch woods.

The Schumpeterian process of "creative destruction", associated with the emergence and diffusion of new radical, so-called "general purpose" technologies, has throughout history impacted wealth and income, jobs creation, jobs displacement, and the emergence and submergence of new hotspots of innovation. Emerging countries have benefited most from such a renewing of those societies' dynamics, leading them to higher levels of economic development and welfare. Doing so they have shown a remarkable capacity in moving upstream in the value chain, from outsourcing of manufacturing activities to autonomous process technology development, product development, design, and applied research. At the same time however, such Schumpeterian processes have now and then turned into exactly opposite processes of "destructive creation." Such processes seem to have become common among what could be called "submerging" economies: innovation only benefitting a few at the expense of many with as a result an opposite pattern of a long term reduction in overall welfare, productivity, and employment growth.

현재 배뇨 장애를 진단할 수 있는 대표적인 임상 방법들은 침습적이고 고가이며, 장시간 연속적인 모니터링을 수행하기에는 한계가 있다. EIT는 비침습적 방법으로 외부 전극을 통하여 전류를 주입하고 유기된 전압을 측정하여 내부 전기적(임피던스) 특성을 영상화 하는 기술로써, 저렴한 비용으로 방광의 상태를 모니터링 할 수 있는 유용한 기법이 될 수 있다. 전극을 통하여 주입된 전류 패턴에 따라 측정전압 데이터의 신호특성이 달라지고 영상 복원 성능에 영향을 미친다. 본 논문에서는 인체 하복부 부근에 위치한 방광의 크기 변화에 대한 민감도가 극대화될 수 있는 모델링을 위해 입력전류 패턴에 따른 영상 복원 성능을 분석하였다.

Local Binary Pattern (LBP) is becoming a popular tool for various machine vision applications such as face recognition, classification and background subtraction. In this paper, we propose a new extension of LBP, called the Diagonal LBP (DLBP), to handle the image-based gender classification problem arise in interactive display systems. Instead of comparing neighbor pixels with the center pixel, DLBP generates codes by comparing a neighbor pixel with the diagonal pixel (the neighbor pixel in the opposite side). It can reduce by half the code length of LBP and consequently, can improve the computation complexity. The Support Vector Machine is utilized as the gender classifier, and the texture profile based on DLBP is adopted as the feature vector. Experimental results revealed that our approach based on the diagonal LPB is very efficient and can be utilized in various real-time pattern classification applications.

spiral 패턴과 meander 패턴의 공심 평면 인덕터에 대해 주파수, 도체간격, 도체폭, 턴수등을 변화시켜 저항, 인덕턴스와 같은 전기적인 특성치의 이론적인 예측에 대해 검토하였다. 도체폭이 커짐에 따라 저항과 인덕턴스는 감소한다. 이때 Q는 spiral pattern에서는 최대치를 가지는 도체폭이 존재하는 반면 meander pattern에서는 저항의 감소가 인덕턴스의 감소보다 작아지므로 도체폭이 증가하면 Q가 증가하였다. spiral pattern에서는 도체간격을 작게할 때 저항, 인덕턴스, Q는 더 이상 증가하지 않는 도체간격이 존재하지만 meander pattern에서는 인접 도체 사이의 상호 인덕턴스의 부호가 (-)가 됨에 따라 도체 간격은 가능한 한 커야 한다. 턴수가 증가함에 따라 저항, 인덕턴스는 증가하며 spiral pattern에서는 최대의 Q를 가지는 턴수가 존재하지만 meander pattern에서는 인덕턴스의 증가보다 저항의 증가가 크기 때문에 턴수의 증가에 따라 Q는 감소하였다.

본논문에서는 운동매질내에서 크기가 파장과 동등정도이거나 그 이상인 circular loop antenna의 방사특성을 전류분포가 정현파적인 경우에 대하여 고찰하였다. 고찰결과로는 방사특성이 매질속도의 영향을 받는다는 사실과 그 영향으로는 정지매질의 radiation pattern 과 비교하여 방사지향성이 loop antenna면에 평행인 매질속도성분에만 영향을 받고 수직성분속도에는 무관하며 radiation pattern의 최대지향성은 loop면에 평행인 속도성분방향으로 이동하고 이와 반대방향으로는 Pattern의 크기가 증가하게 된다. 또 이와 같은 운동매질의 영향은 매질속도도가 오고 전류주파수가 높을수록 antenna의 직경이 클수록 더욱 현저하게 된다는 사실을 알게 되었다.
