The purpose of this study was to investigate the effects of visual information and different elevations of medially wedged insoles on the proprioceptive sense of the knee joint. The subjects of this study were 16 able-bodied men who were not athletic. An electrogoniometer was used to determine the error value between calculated 50% of full flexion (target position) and performed 50% of full flexion in a standing position with the upper extremities crossed. Tests were randomly performed in $2{\times}4$ conditions. Visual variations included open eyes vs. closed eyes, while the elevation was adjusted through the use (or lack thereof) of medially wedged insoles of 10 mm, 14 mm, and 18 mm. The average error value in each condition was statistically analyzed. The findings of this study revealed as follows: 1) The average error value was significantly higher with the subjects' eyes open than with their eyes closed (p<.05). 2) The averaged error value was also significantly higher when the subjects were elevated 18 mm than with no elevation at all (p<.05). The findings of this study should be considered in lower extremity rehabilitation programs when medially wedged insoles used.

It does not exist almost that Most satellite image has both high spectral and spatial resolution. In order to apply the satellite image for to be actual, we need numerical and analytical technique development to improve the resolution. Specially in the function of solid illustration, we represent the solid image through the image generation to solid screen. The main function includes magnification, reduction, screen center movement, Panning, territory magnification. The method to process the image includes histogram and contrast modulation. Afterwards, we will develop the function includes 3-dimension cursor to control the elevation position and calculate the ground coordination automatically. There is the layer control includes the representation and the edition of 3D vector, extraction the Z value by On the Ground and digital elevation.

We make DEM of the area that elevation value varies rapidly by the aid. This study evaluates the accuracy and workability between the existing DEM making mathod by processing break line and the DEM absorption method by using the program like ARC TIN or AML. The object data of DEM generation is 1/5,000 digital map publicated by NGII and this study uses 100pieces of map as the criteria. We correct the error by Geoconv and generate DEM by using ARC TIN, ARC VIEW. Accuracy Evaluation accomplished by drawing 100 points from 1/5000 digital map.

This paper proposes a wireless EMG-based human-computer interface (HCI) for persons with disabilities. For the HCI, four interaction commands are defined by combining three elevation motions of shoulders such as left, right and both elevations. The motions are recognized by comparing EMG signals on the Levator scapulae muscles with double thresholds. A real-time EMG processing hardware is implemented for acquiring EMG signals and recognizing the motions. To achieve real-time processing, filters such as high- and low-pass filter and band-pass and -rejection filter, and a full rectifier and a mean absolute value circuit are embedded on a board with a high speed microprocessor. The recognized results are transferred to a wireless client system such as a mobile robot via a Bluetooth module. From experimental results using the implemented real-time EMG processing hardware, the proposed wireless EMG-based HCI is feasible for the disabled.

In this paper, atmospheric turbulence and absorption under clear weather condition, which affect the optical satellite up-link communication between geo-satellites and earth station, were studied. In case of the up-link communication, the received optical power is weakened by pointing loss caused by beam tilt which is the main effect of turbulent atmosphere. This pointing loss directly has relation to the diameter of optical transmitting antenna. From the inverse proportion of the pointing and spaced loss, it is the regions where the diameter of transmitting antenna increases abruptly and the efficient design of transmitting antenna is impossible. In case of using channel coding, it was shown that the peak value of diameter moved to the lower regions of elevation angle with increasing the coding gain and its width was also decreased. In case of considering both coding gain and transmission rate on the design of transmitting antenna, it was known that more coding gain was necessary as transmission rate was increased.

Even though official G/T for KOMPSAT-2 X-Band downlink acquisition was 32dB/K, KARI performed the data acquisition experiment using 2Am X-Band antenna to check if popular 2Am MODIS receiving antenna can receive KOMPSAT-2 MSC data within acceptable quality level. Through several acquisition tests, it was shown that G/T value of 24dB/K can provide the reliable data BER quality, 10-6 for the above the elevation angle of 10 degree. Some plots for Eb/No versus elevation angle are provided.

It is well-known fact that tidal difference between the ebb and flow in Yellow Sea is about 9 m so that it has largest value in the world. This wide range of tide level enables Yellow Sea water to intrude into main stream of Han River. However, the study of the tidal reach of Han River has not been carried out thoroughly since North and South Koreas share this region so that topography data and physical measurement are lacking. In this study, to examine the reverse flow and dispersion behavior by tidal effect at the tidal reach of Han River, 2-D river analysis models were applied. RMA-2 was applied to calculate the horizontal velocities and water surface elevation. With the results of velocities and water depth, RAM4, which is 2-D advection-dispersion model based on FEM was simulated to analyze the horizontal transport behavior of BOD.

The theory of slope erosion is developed along similar lines to the theory of heat flow in solid added to the correcting factor. if slope erosion in the forest and grassland proceeds according to the hypothesis, it is $\delta$y $\delta^2$y = k $\delta^2$y $\delta$$X^2$+f(s b. t) where 5 is internal properties of slope soil and b is biota on slope. When the variables of the equation of slope erosion are x = -λ the initial elevation=-f(λ), x=λ, x==a, the steady value of the initial elevation=y, and dy dx x=0> =O(t>o), respectively, the houndary condition due to the solution of the equation of slope erosion is y= 2 √$\pi$kt [∫a o λe $(X-λ)^2$4kt dλ- ∫ao- $(x+λ)^2$4kt dλ] + ∫∫∫ f (s.b. t)dtdbds

We improved the antenna efficiency of the Taeduk Radio Astronomy Observatory (TRAO) 13.7-m radio telescope by adjusting the antenna panels based on digital photogrammetric measurements. First of all, we measured the surface accuracy of the main reflector of this antenna at three elevation angles of $35^{\circ}$, $45^{\circ}$, and $60^{\circ}$. We performed a total of four sets of the photogrammetric measurements and panel adjustments. When adjusting the panels, we positioned the antenna to the zenith and applied the measured data sets at the elevation of $45^{\circ}$. We found that the antenna surface accuracy has been improved by a factor of ~ 3 times after the final adjustment in comparison with the value before the adjustments. And we also found that the antenna surface accuracy tended to be slightly better at the elevation angles of $35^{\circ}$ and $60^{\circ}$ than that at the elevation angle of $45^{\circ}$. After the final panel adjustment, the aperture and beam efficiencies of the telescope have has been improved from 35% to 44%, and from 41% to 51%, respectively.

This paper proposes a method for 3-D sound source localization (SSL) using region selection and TDOA. 3-D SSL involves the estimation of an azimuth angle and an elevation angle. With the aim of reducing the computation time, we compare signal energies to select one out of three regions. In the selected region, we compute only one TDOA value for the azimuth angle estimation. Also, to estimate the vertical angle, we choose the higher energy signal from the selected region and pair it up with the elevated microphone's signal for TDOA computation and elevation angle estimation. Our experimental results show that the proposed method achieves average error values of $0.778^{\circ}$ in azimuth and $1.296^{\circ}$ in elevation, which is similar to other methods. The method uses one energy comparison and two TDOA computations therefore, the total processing time is reduced.
