PURPOSE: This study aimed to determine the most effective feedback condition for static balance in elderly subjects. METHODS: Thirty-eight elderly subjects (12 men and 26 women with a mean age of 77.21 years) participated in this study. They each completed a questionnaire on their general characteristics, excluding personal identification codes. The static balance ability of the participants was evaluated using a Wii Balance Board and the Balancia program (version 2.0). The following three feedback conditions were considered: condition 1 (tactile feedback), condition 2 (visual feedback), and condition 3 (no feedback). One-way repeated-measures analysis of variance was used for the comparisons according to sway length and sway velocity. The statistical significance level was set to α = .05 for all variables. RESULTS: Significant differences in the sway length and sway velocity were observed between the three conditions (p < .05). Significant differences in the sway length were noted in the order of conditions 1, 2, and 3 (p < .05), and significant differences in the sway velocity in the order of conditions 3, 2, and 1 (p < .05). CONCLUSION: Significant differences in static balance ability were observed between the three conditions. In this study, tactile feedback was found to be the most effective feedback for balance training. Owing to aging and impairment of the senses, such as that observed in the tactile receptors, visual receptors, and proprioceptors, it is recommended that elderly subjects participate in balance training.

Multi-sensory systems, including the visual, somatosensory, and vestibular ones, are involved in maintaining standing balance. The organization of these sensory systems is as important as the efficiency of each individual system in maintaining optimal balance. The purpose of the present experiment was to investigate the developmental changes in static standing balance and sensory organization under altered sensory conditions. This study involved 64 children (from 4 to 15 years of age) and 17 young adults. The children were divided into four age groups: 4~6, 7~9, 10~12, and 13~15 years. Static standing balance was assessed with the one-leg standing test under four different sensory conditions: the children stood on a firm surface with (1) eyes open or (2) closed, and they stood on a foam surface with eyes (3) open or (4) closed. In balancing ability, the age groups exhibited significant differences. The function of sensory organization for balance control was poorer for the children than for the young adults. The functional efficiency of the somatosensory system of the children aged 7~9 years was at the young adults' level, and the visual function of the children aged 10~12 years had also reached the young adults' level. However, the functional efficiency of the vestibular system of children was significantly lower than that of the young adults, even at the age of 15 years. This may indicate that sensory organization and standing balance are still developing after the age of 15 years.

대형 비행기 조종사들은 지상으로부터 높은 조종실의 위치, 빠른 접근속도와 수직강하속도로 인하여 불충분한 시각정보를 바탕으로 착륙 조작을 하여야만 한다. 본 연구에서는 이러한 대형 비행기의 특징으로 인하여 비행기 착륙의 최종 조작인 당김(flare) 조작을 할 때 대형 비행기 조종사들이 정확한 높이지각을 하기 어렵다는 사실을 검증하였다. 연구 1에서는 조종석 외부로 보이는 공항에 대한 사진을 제시하고 높이 추정을 하도록 하여 정적 시각 단서만으로 정확한 높이지각이 가능한지를 살펴보았다. 85feet의 고도에서는 정확한 높이지각을 하나 당김 조작을 준비해야 하는 높이인 55feet부터 낮은 고도에서는 정확한 높이를 추정하지 못하였다. 연구 2에서는 착륙의 전 과정을 녹화한 화면을 보여주어 높이 추정을 하도록 하여 동적 시각 단서와 정적 시각 단서를 모두 제공하여 주었다. 시각단서가 연구 1보다 풍부하였으므로 50feet까지 정확한 높이지각을 하였으나 연구 1의 결과와 마찬가지로 당김 조작을 시작하는 높이인 30feet 이하의 저고도에서의 높이지각이 모두 부정확하였다. 시각 단서의 해석에 경험이 중요한 요인이므로 경험이 많은 기장과 경험이 적은 부기장 간의 높이 추정에 차이가 있는지를 연구 1과 연구 2에서 모두 비교하여 보았으나 차이는 유의하지 않았다.

Background: Although visual examination and palpation are used to assess shoulder motion in clinical practice, there is no consensus on shoulder motion under dynamic and static conditions. This study aimed to compare shoulder joint motion under dynamic and static conditions. Methods: The dominant arm of 14 healthy adult males was investigated. Electromagnetic sensors attached to the scapular, thorax, and humerus were used to measure three-dimensional shoulder joint motion under dynamic and static elevation conditions and compare scapular upward rotation and glenohumeral joint elevation in different elevation planes and angles. Results: At 120° of elevation in the scapular and coronal planes, the scapular upward rotation angle was higher in the static condition and the glenohumeral joint elevation angle was higher in the dynamic condition (P<0.05). In scapular plane and coronal plane elevation 90°-120°, the angular change in scapular upward rotation was higher in the static condition and the angular change in scapulohumeral joint elevation was higher in the dynamic condition (P<0.05). No differences were found in shoulder joint motion in the sagittal plane elevation between the dynamic and static conditions. No interaction effects were found between elevation condition and elevation angle in all elevation planes. Conclusions: Differences in shoulder joint motion should be noted when assessing shoulder joint motion in different dynamic and static conditions.

본 연구는 대학생의 라이프케어에서 시력 차이가 균형 및 보행능력에 미치는 영향을 연구하였다. 본 연구는 G 광역시에 소재의 H 대학교에 재학 중인 45명을 대상으로 안경과 콘택트렌즈를 착용하지 않는 대조군(n=22)과 안경과 콘택트렌즈를 착용하는 실험군(n=23)으로 나누어 실시하였다. 대상자는 안경과 콘택트렌즈를 착용하지 않은 상태에서 logMAR 차트로 시력을 측정하고, BIOrescue로 균형능력을 평가하였으며, G-Walk로 보행능력을 평가하였다. 본 연구의 결과는 시력 측정에서 대조군보다 실험군은 통계적으로 유의하게 시력이 낮았다(p<.01). 정적 균형능력은 오른발의 무게중심 이동이 대조군보다 실험군이 통계학적으로 유의하게 증가하였으며(p<.05), 동적 균형능력은 대조군보다 실험군에서 안정성 한계가 통계적으로 유의하게 감소하였다(p<.05). 보행능력은 한발짝 거리와 한걸음 거리는 대조군보다 실험군의 오른발에서 통계적으로 유의하게 짧았으며(p<.05), 흔듦기는 대조군보다 실험군의 오른발에서 통계적으로 유의하게 감소하였다(p<.05). 본 연구의 결과를 종합해 보면, 대학생의 라이프케어에서 시력 차이는 균형과 보행능력의 감소시키는 것을 알 수 있었다. 따라서 대학생의 라이프케어에서 시력이 낮은 대학생의 넘어짐과 부딪침을 예방하기 위해 안경 및 콘택트렌즈를 통한 시력 교정이 필요할 것으로 생각된다.

The diagnosis of bridge serviceability is carried out by a combination of in-situ visual inspection, static and dynamic loading tests and analyses. Structural health monitoring (SHM) using information technology and sensors is increasingly being used for providing a better estimate of structural performance characteristics rather than above traditional methods. Because the mechanical behavior of bridges with various kinds of damage can not be made clear, it is very difficult to estimate both the damage mode and degree of damage of existing bridges. In this paper, the sensitivity of both static and dynamic behaviors of bridges are studied as a measure of damage assessment through experiments on model bridges induced with some specified artificial damages. And, a method of damage assessment of bridges based on those behaviors is discussed in detail. Finally, based on the results, a possible application for structural health monitoring systems for existing bridges is also discussed.

Human can recognize the environment by detecting spatial perception, and most of environmental perception depends on visual perception. In view that the acquisition of spatial information is accomplished through visual recognition, analysis of visual structure contained in the space is thought to be very important sector in studying the characteristic of the space. The history of studies on visual structure of space, however, wasn't too long, and furthermore most of the theories up to now focused on static and planar principles. Under this circumstance, this study is intended to suggest new theory by combining Isovist theory and VGA theory that have been actively discussed as the theory on visual perception-based spatial structure and supplementing them between each other to expand into 3-dimensional model. The suggested theory is a complex principle in dimensional and dynamic form in consideration of visual direction, which forms 3-dimentional virtual model that enables visualization of the property of spatial structure as the routine discriminating whether visual connection is made between viewing point and target point, and the target point is included in the visual field quadrangular pyramid or not. Such model was built up by an analysis application where four probe paths were applied to simulate the visual structure that occurs in virtual space, and then the characteristics were analyzed through quantification. In result, in spite of the path with equal space and equal length, significant difference in the acquired quantity of spatial information could be found depending on the probe sequence. On the contrary, it was found that probe direction may not affect the acquired quantity of information and visual property of the space.

This paper examines the conventional notion of natural beauty and its legacy on the aesthetic experience of nature and landscape architecture in terms of critical perspective. We can take its clue for discussion from the our routine convention of experiencing natural beauty from the picture-like nature. We often equate natural beauty with superficial representations of nature shown in pictures. However, it is no more than a by-stander's nature seen purely through the eyes of the outsider. Problems of the picture-like nature can be summarized as the contemplative and visual-oriented aesthetic experience of landscape, which has had its influence not only on the ways of seeing the natural beauty but also on the ways of making it. The tradition of the picture-like nature has been transplanted into the real world through the practice of landscape architecture. It has been mass-producing superficial beauty of nature, focused on visual form. Landscape architecture in such a form is just a static means of decoration devoid of meaning and content.
