Mandibular movement is composed of border movement and functional movement. Border movement such as maximal mouth opening, hinge opening ad lateral eccentric movement has good reproducibility, but functional movement such as chewing, swallowing and speech has also reproducibility. Especially for chewing movement, individual reproducibility has been confirmed by many studies. Study of chewing pattern is still in controversy. In new approach for raising the diagnostic value, numeric parameters and morphologic characteristics could be used for evaluation of chewing pattern. This study was performed to investigate the differences between chewing pattern in controls and in patients with temporomandibular disorders. Sixty-three patients with temporomandibular disorders participated in this study, and they were divided into unilaterally affected subjects or bilaterally affected subjects. Then unilaterally affected subjects were classified into closed lock group, disk displacement with reduction group, and degenerative joint disease group. For recording of chewing pattern, subjects were asked to chew one piece of presoftened chewing gum on both sides, and the chewing movement was recorded with the Electrognatho- Graphy(Bio-Research Associates Inc., U.S.A.). Tooth contact pattern for occlusal stability (Total left-right statistics )was also recorded with T-Scan(Tekscan Co., U.S.A.). The dta related to chewing pattern and total left-right statistics were statistically analyzed by SAS/stat program. The obtained results were as follows : 1. In patient group, mean value of A-P distance and the ratio of A-P distance to vertical distance were larger than control group, but the value of lateral distance in affected side and the closing velocity in unaffected side were smaller than that of control group, respectively. 2. In case of unilateral affected patients, chewing pattern of other side had tendency to restricted movement and slow velocity in closed lock group or degenerative joint disease group than control group or disk displacement with reduction group. 3. In bilateral degenerative joint disease patients, contralateral side had tendency to large range of motion and slow chewing velocity than preferred chewing side. 4. The patients with restricted mouth opening below than 35mm had higher value of total left-right statistics than patient group mouth opening above 35mm. Also closed lock group had higher total left-right statistics than disk displacement with reduction group, degenerative joint disease group and control group. 5. There was some difference in morphologic characteristics of chewing pattern between in control group and in affected side of unilateral patient group, but no difference between control group and unaffected side of unilateral patient group. 6. There were positive correlations between vertical distance and A-P distance, between vertical distance and chewing velocity, between A-P distance and chewing velocity, and between opening velocity and closing velocity in unilateral affected patients.

AS human movements have the inherent property of anticipating target and can be coordinated to realize a given schedule, finger movements have stereotyped patterns during hand grasping. Finger movements have been studied in the past to find out the coordination pattern of hand joint angular movement. These studies analyzed only a few finger joints for a limited number of hand postures. This study investigated fourteen joint angles during eight hand-grasping motions to analyze the angular correlations between finger joints and to suggest motion factors which represent hand grasping. Hand grasping motions including forward arm motion were examined in ten healthy volunteers. Eight objects were used to represent real hand grasping tasks. $CyberGlove^{TM}$ and $Fasreack^{TM}$ measured hand joint angles and wrist origin. Joint angle correlations between PIJ(proximal interphalangeal joint) and MPJ(metacarpophalangeal joint) at one finger, between neighboring PIJs and MPJs were four factors related to the fast phase of hand grasping motions and eight factors related to the slow phase of hand grasping motions.

The purpose of this study was to investigate the relationship between the quantitative analysis of biomechanical movement and the qualitative analysis of video software in order to evaluate for the walking movement. The fourteen collegiate students who agreed with the purpose and method of this study participated as subjects. The slow walking and fast walking of the subjects in the place of experiment were photographed, and calculated several mechanical factors. This empirical evidence from the experiment indicated the significant difference(p<.001) between each distant factors of the walking movement for both analyses methods, but there was no statistically significant difference between the spacial factors observed in the experiment. For more detail, no significant difference between the walking ratios that expressed the coordination between stride length and stride frequency was found. The findings also indicated the high coefficient of correlation(over r=.9) which supports higher explanation force for the biomechanical method and the Dartfish video software method. Therefore, if the data was gathered by using the proper experimental method, the video software method could be used just like the quantitative data of biomechanical method.

For the last several decades, the fate of organic pollutants has been extensively studied in natural environments with emphasis on sorption and desorption phenomena. Although the mechanisms involved are not clear yet there is a consensus about the existence of hysteresis in the sorption and desorption of organic pollutants. Furthermore, it is found that hysteresis is the outcome of slow nonequilibrium sorption of organic pollutants, which results in the formation of desorption-resistant fractions of the pollutants. Desorption-resistant fractions may increase as a function of the residence time of the pollutants in the environments. Field monitoring data show a slow but continuous decline of chemicals applied to soil, followed by little or no subsequent disappearance. One plausible explanation for such resistance to biodegradation, desorption, or extraction can be attributed the gradual movement of organic pollutants to less accessible remote sites inside the matrix with time. This phenomenon has been termed sequestration or aging. The fact that some pollutants are sequestered in soil with time may have a great impact on bioremediation and risk assessment, Some portion of the resistant pollutants may still be present in the environments after bioremediation. It requires vigorous means to completely remove the aged portion that may not be further bioavailable. However, precaution should be taken since aging is not always evident. Aging seems to be soil and chemical specific.

In this study, a wireless crack sensor is developed for monitoring cracks propagating in two dimensions. This sensor is developed by incorporating a laser-based optical navigation sensor board (ADNS-9500) into a smart wireless platform (Imote2). To measure crack propagation, the Imote2 sends a signal to the ADNS-9500 to collect a sequence of images reflected from the concrete surface. These acquired images can be processed in the ADNS-9500 directly (the navigation mode) or sent to Imote2 for processing (the frame capture mode). The computed crack displacement can then be transmitted wirelessly to a base station. The design and the construction of this sensor are reported herein followed by some calibration tests on one prototype sensor. Test results show that the sensor can provide sub-millimeter accuracy under sinusoidal and step movement. Also, the two modes of operation offer complementary performance as the navigation mode is more accurate in tracking large amplitude and fast crack movement while the frame capture mode is more accurate for small and slow crack movement. These results illustrate the feasibility of developing such a crack sensor as well as point out directions of further research before its actual implementation.

This paper presents the predicted polar mapping that is to improve the efficiency of an unexpected moving obstacle detecting system. When the movement of the robot per a step becomes a bit large then static objects or background are detected as moving objects. Thus, the velocity of the robot becomes so slow. Therefore, to enlarge the movement of the robot, we propose the predicted polar mapping that predicts the polar mapped image after robot moves to be admissible. In order to verify experimentally our proposed procedure, we make several comparative tests in the corridor.

Objective: The purpose of this study was to compare the lower extremity muscle activity and knee joint load according to movement speed conditions during the barbell back squat. Method: Nine males with resistance training experience participated in this study. Participants performed the barbell back squat in three conditions (Standard, Fast, and Slow) differing movement speed. During the barbell back squat, muscle activity of the rectus femoris (RF), vastus lateralis (VL), vastus medialis (VM), biceps femoris long head (BFL), semitendinosus (ST), gluteus maximus (GM), gastrocnemius (GCN), and tibialis anterior (TA) was collected using an 8 channel wireless EMG system. The peak flexion angle of the lower extremity joints and the peak resultant joint force in each direction of the knee joint were calculated using eight motion capture cameras and ground reaction force plates. This study was to used the Friedman test and the Wilcoxon signed rank test, to compare lower extremity muscle activity and peak resultant joint force at knee joint according to movement speed conditions during the barbell back squat, and the statistical significance level was set at .01. Results: In the downward phase of the barbell back squat, the RF and TA showed the higher muscle activity in the fast condition, and in the upward phase, RF, VL, VM, BFL, ST, GM, and TA showed the higher muscle activity in the fast condition. As a results, analyzing of the load on the knee joint, in the downward phase, and in the upward phase, the higher peak compressive force of the knee joint was showed in the fast condition. Conclusion: The barbell back squat with fast movement speed was more effective due to increased muscle activity of lower extremity, but one must be careful of knee joint injuries because the load on the knee joint may increase during the barbell back squat with fast movement speed.

본 연구는 다양한 디지털 기기에서 리스트 형태의 정보 디스플레이에 일반적으로 적용되는 랩어라운드 (Wraparound)의 유용성에 대해 조사하였다. 랩어라운드는 리스트의 첫 항목에서 커서를 위로 이동시키면 마지막 항목으로, 마지막 항목에서 커서를 아래로 이동시키면 첫 항목으로 커서가 점프하는 것을 말한다. 본 연구에서는 랩어라운드의 유용성을 검증하기 위해 리스트의 종류와 길이, 그리고 랩어라운드 기능 유무를 달리하여 두 번에 걸친 실험을 수행하였다. 실험 결과, 랩어라운드의 효과는 리스트의 종류와 길이에 따라 그 유용성이 달랐다. 긴 리스트에서는 랩어라운드가 있는 경우 커서의 이동횟수는 줄여주나 이동속도는 다소 느리게 만드는 효과가 있었다. 랩어라운드가 있음으로 인해 느려진 커서의 이동속도는 랩어라운드의 사용여부에 대한 인지판단 시간으로 인한 것으로 보였다. 리스트의 길이가 충분히 긴 경우, 느려진 이동속도로 인한 시간만큼을 랩어라운드로 인해 줄어드는 커서 이동횟수 만큼의 감소시간이 상쇄시킴으로써 전체적인 완료시간까지 감소시키는 효과를 가져왔다. 또한 실험참여자들은 리스트의 길이가 더 긴 경우에 랩어라운드가 더 필요하다고 생각하였다.

목적 : 방사선치료계획용 전산화단층활영(computerized tomography, 이하 CT) 시 주사시간이 종양부피의 재현성에 미치는 영향을 살펴보고자 하였다. 대상 및 방법 : 인공호흡기의 환기작용에 의해 세로방향의 왕복 운동을 하는 N자형 모형을 제작하였고, 호흡주기를 T로 하였을 때 주사시간을 상대적으로 각각 0.33, 0.50, 0.67, 0.75, 1.00, 1.33, 그리고 1.53 T로 설정하고 CT촬영을 시행하였다. 또한 2002년 3월 19일부터 2002년 5월 21일까지 서울아산병원 방사선종양학과에서 정위방사선수술(stereotactic radiosurgery)을 시행받은 비소세포성 폐암 환자 3명을 대상으로, 주사시간이 빠른 CT (LightSpeed, GE Medical Systems, 주사시간 0.8초)와 느린 CT (IQ Premier, Picker, 주사시간 2.0초)를 각각 $1\~4$회 시행하였다. 각각의 slice에서, N자형 모형의 왕복 운동이 CT 영상에 반영된 좌우방향 선분의 길이를 측정하여 치료계획용 CT 촬영이 모형의 움직임을 반영하는 정도를 측정하였다. 환자를 대상으로 한 연구에서는 정위적 체부 고정틀을 이용하여, 빠른 CT 및 느린 CT의 종양을 하나의 CT 영상조합에서 재구성하여 종양의 체적과 장경을 측정하여 비교하였다. 결과 : 모형실험에서 주사시간에 비례하여, 세로방향 운동을 CT 촬영에서 반영하는 정도는 증가하였으며 1.00 T 이상에서는 일정한 양상을 보였다 주사시간 1.00 T 이상에서 얻어진 결과를 기준으로, 1.00 T 미만의 주사시간을 가지는 CT촬영에서 모형운동을 반영하지 못하는 비율이 각각 $0.33\;T:\;30\%,\;0.50\;T:\;27\%,\;0.67\;T:\;20\%,\;0.75\;T:\;7.0\%$로 측정되었다. 또한 투시검사로 측정한 종양의 세로 방향 움직임이 각각 3 mm, 5 mm, 10 mm이었던 각각의 환자에서 느린 CT에서 얻어진 종양의 세로방향 장경이 빠른 CT에 비해 $5.3\%\;17\%,\;23\%$ 증가하였다. 결론 : 주사시간을 환자의 호흡주기 이상으로 하는 경우 setup margin만을 고려하여 계획용표적체적(planning target volume, PTV)을 정의할 수 있으므로 정상 폐조직에 조사되는 방사선량을 줄여 치료효율을 향상시킬 수 있을 것으로 생각된다.

This study analyzed snatch technique in weight-lifting performed by female gold, silver, and copper medalists at the 75kg level in the 2002 Pusan Asian Games and obtained the following conclusions. 1. KSH used more extensor in the waist than those in ankles, knees, or hip joints during the second pull, So further training is required to manifest both each of joints and waist extensor effectively and thus for the line from shoulders through barbell to hip joints to form a smooth vertical pattern. 2. Contrary to those in other countries, Korean athlete KSH tended to be swift in starting but slow in the second pull section, showing less effectiveness in movement during the second pull; therefore, they must try to exert a swift movement in lockout. 3. KSH showed slowdown in the speed, which was a factor interfering with performance during second pull, despite the great maximum speed of moving barbell. It is important to use barbell sufficiently not to reduce the speed of vertical movement but rather to keep the speed increasing. 4. KSH, who kept doing inefficient movements such as failure to perform swift lockout after lifting the heel at the maximum angle of lower limbs, needs to reduce this meaningless extension of ankles, knees, or hip joints to exert energy effectively.
