To investigate the flow patterns and diffusions in the Taean coastal waters of the eastern Yellow Sea, hydraulic and numerical experiments of tidal currents and diffusions of dye and cooling water were performed during spring tide along with field observations. Flow patterns obtained by the hydraulic and numerical experiments approximately coincide with those of the field observations. In the fold observations of tidal current, currents flow southwestward during the ebb tide, while currents flow northeastward during the flood tide. and the maximum velocity is 2.13 ㎧ toward WSW direction. The Eulerian diffusion coefficient estimated from field measmements of current is 7.82$\times$10$^{5}$ $\textrm{cm}^2$/s. Diffusion coefficients obtained from the area of dye plume in the model are given by the expression 0.18 $r^{4}$3/, and the coefficients have the range of 10$^{5}$ ~10$^{6}$ $\textrm{cm}^2$/s. These values are similar to the Eulerian diffusion coefficient estimated fram field measurements. Diffusion coefficients obtained in the hydraulic model are one to two orders higher than those obtained in the Onsan Bay in the eastern waters and two to three orders higher than those obtained in the Chinhae Bay in the southern waters of the Korean Peninsula. Diffusion patterns of cooling water by numerical experiments are similar to those of dye plume by hydraulic experiments. Both hydraulic and numerical experiment results of diffusions of dye plume and cooling water in the Taean coastal waters, have shown that the diffusion during the ebb tide is more prevalent than one during the flood tide.

This paper deals with an analysis of crustal movement for the sourthern part of Korean peninsula using GNSS (Global Navigation Satellite System) data. An earthquake of more than 5.0 occurred in the southeastern region of the Korean Peninsula, and it is necessary to evaluate the risk of earthquakes in various ways.In order to reveal long-term tectonic movement patten in Pohang and Gyeongju provinces, we derived crustal movement parameters related with elastic theory. We used GAMIT/GLOBK for analyzing seven-year interval GNSS data of CORS (Continuously Operating Reference Stations). The azimuth of velocity vectors trended generally about 110° with an mean magnitude of 31mm/yr.The main characteristics of the strain change for seven-year in Korea obtaind from our study. Direction of the principal axis of the maximum compression is ENE-WSW as a whole, through there are some exceptions. The mean rate of the maximum shear strain change is (0.11±0.07)μ/yr, that is approximately one third that of Chubu district, Central Japan. Taking into account our results, the mean rate of maximum shear in southern part of Korean peninsula is considered as reasonable. The mean azimuth of principal strain is about (85.4°±26.8°). There are some exceptions of azimuth because the average azimuth differ from the left and right side in Yangsan fault which are about (73.2°±21.5°) and (105.2°±17.0°) respectively, It is noteworthy that the high seismicity areas in the southern part of Korea peninsula almost coincides with the area of large strain rate. As a conclusion, it could be stated that the our study represents the characteristics of crustal deformation in the southern part of peninsula, and contributes to the researches on earthquake disaster management.

Calcite twins were analyzed in six oriented samples of the Pungchon limestone, Joseon Supergroup, to reconstruct the paleostress field. The orientations of c-axis of calcite and e twin plane were measured along with the average thickness and numbers of twins, and the widths of calcite grains. Twin strain, mean width, and intensity of twinning, and the relative magnitude and orientations of principal stresses were calculated using Calcite Strain Gauge program. Twin strain, mean width, and intensity of twinning showed ranges of 1.09-15.36%, 0.53-3.72 ㎛ and 21.0-53.1 twim/mm, respectively. Metamorphic temperatures calculated from the twins were 170-200℃, indicating that the twins developed after the Pungchon limestone was uplifted to at least half of the maximum burial depth. Results for five of the samples indicate that the calcite twins formed during two events with principal stress axes of different orientations, while the remaining sample recorded only one event that produced calcite twins. The axis of maximum compressive stress was oriented mainly WNW-ESE to ENE-WSW, and to a lesser degree NW-SE and NE-SW. Comparison of paleostress orientations measured here and in other studies indicates that most twins were produced during the Songrim orogeny. However, the Daebo orogeny and the Bulguksa orogeny also produced calcite twins in the Punchon limestone.

To get the maximum diffusion boundary of thermal effluent of Youngkwang Nuclear Power Plant, paths of TGPS Buoy and temperatures of surface water are obtained to 4 times at spring tide during 1 year. According to the paths of TGPS Buoy, the flumes of thermal effluent are moved about 12km from outlet to SW or WSW direction. After 3∼4 times of tidal period the waters are reached to Chilsan Island because the ebb flow is more predominant than the flood flow in this area. At the spring and fall season, a sudden drop of surface water temperature is detected around 5km radius from the outlet. At the summer season, it is measured about 10km. On the other hand the flumes are continuously cooled down by the atmosphere condition at winter season.

The purpose of this study is to examine the effects of feedback breathing exercise on respiratory muscle activity. Thirty stroke patients were randomly and equally assigned to an experimental group and a control group. The experimental group received rehabilitation exercise treatment for 30 minutes and feedback respiratory exercise for 30 minutes and the control group received rehabilitation exercise treatment for 30 minutes and conducted motomed exercise for 30 minutes. All of them conducted exercises five times per week for four weeks. Respiratory muscles including the upper trapezius(UT), longissimus dorsi(LD), rectus abdominis(RA), external abdominal oblique(EAO) and, internal abdominal oblique(IAO) were measured using MP 150WSW prior to and after the experiment. Regarding pulmonary functions prior to and after the experiment, the experimental group showed significant differences in all sections but the control group did not show significant differences in any sections. As for in-between group differences after the experiment, there were significant differences in the UT, LD, RA, and IAO but no significant differences in the EAO. In conclusion, respiratory muscle activity was more effective for the experimental group than the control group. It is considered that feedback respiratory exercise may induce improvement in respiratory muscles in stroke patients through feedback breathing exercise.

독도는 울릉도에서도 동남쪽으로 약 87.4km 떨어져 외해의 영향을 많이 받고 있는 지역이지만 방파제 등 외곽시설이 전무하여 평상파랑에도 접안이 어려운 경우가 많아서 독도 관광자원 활용도 및 편의시설 제공면에서 많은 어려움이 있다. 이에 본 연구에서는 독도 접안시설의 전면에 최근 국내에 본격적으로 도입되고 있는 부방파제(floating breakwater)를 설치할 경우 고정식 방파제 설치에 따른 문제점을 충분히 개선할 수 있다고 판단하여, 부방파제 설치에 따른 기술적인 타당성과 부두 이용률 개선효과 등을 연구 하였다. 독도의 접안시설은 해역이 동도와 서도에 의해 북쪽은 일부 차폐되고 남쪽은 직접 노출되어 있는 지리적 특성이 있어 주 파향인 남쪽계열의 8개 파향(SE, SSE, S, SW, SSW, WSW, W, WNW)의 평상파 제어가 가능하도록 방파제를 배치하였고, 이에 따른 부두 이용률 검토결과 부방파제를 설치할 경우 남쪽계열 파랑에 대하여 현상태에 비하여 부두 이용률이 대략 2배정도 증가되는 것으로 나타났으며, 부방파제 계류시스템의 안정에 대해서도 부체에 영향을 주는 외력에 대하여 계류체인의 길이와 Anchor Block 자중의 규모를 적당히 조정하면 충분히 안정한 것으로 검토되었다.

Trunk holding test (Sorensen test) appear to have more value than strength test in prediction the occurrence of low back pain. Electromyographic activity of trunk extensor muscles during these test may provide clues to the etiology of neuromuscular-based low back pain. This study investigated the difference in back muscle endurance between healthy adult men and women using surface electromyographic (EMG) power spectral analysis. Thirty hea1thy subjects (15 men and 15 women) performed an unsupported trunk holding test for 60 seconds. Recording surface electrodes were placed over the erector spinae medially and laterally at vertebral levels of $L_1$ and $L_5$. Slope of total frequency was evaluated using the MP100WSW Fast Fourier Transform spectrum analysis program. The slopes of all indices of back muscle fatigue, except right $L_5$, were significantly steeper in men than in women (p<0.05). Our results indicated that the trunk holding test using EMG power spectral analysis of erector spinae muscles is useful for the evaluation of fatigue rate of these muscles. Our results also showed a higher muscle endurance in healthy adult women than in men.

Source parameters of the December 13, 1996 Yeongweol earthquake are estimated using the grid test technique. Thirty polarities of P waves recorded at KMA, KIGAM, KSRS and JAPAN stations are used for the event. The obtained fault plane solution shows predominantly strike-slip motion with small amount of thrust component. The orientation of the fault is 180$\pm$10$^{\circ}$in strike, 50$\pm$5$^{\circ}$in dip and 150$\pm$5$^{\circ}$in rake, or 292$\pm$3$^{\circ}$in strike, 65$\pm$5$^{\circ}$in dip and 30$\pm$10$^{\circ}$ in rake. These solutions are very similar to those of earthquakes occurred at Sagju, Pohang and offshore Gunsan. The compressional axis of stress field is trending from ENE to WSW, which is consistent with the previously defined typical regional tectonic stress orientation in and around Korean Peninsula.. From the result of this study and other source mechanisms around the Korean Peninsula, we are of opinion that tectonic stress around the Korean Peninsula may be more attributed to the collision of Indian plate with the Eurasian plate than subduction of Pacific and Philippine plates.

본 연구에서는 한국에서 구삼각강(1910-1915)과 정밀1차측지망(1975-1994)을 사용하여 지각변동량을 계산하고, 지체구조의 일반적인 변형패턴을 기하학적으로 조사하였다. 본 연구에서는 변형량을 계산하기 위하여 2차원의 무한소 변형모델을 설정하였으며, 수평변형량은 구좌표와 정밀1차측지망의 정밀동시강조정을 자유강조정법에 의하여 최초로 실시하여 일괄성있는 신좌표를 사용하여 계산된 측지선의 변화량으로 추정하였다. 변형설계결과로부터 1910년부터 1994년까지 누적된 변형량은 평균(1.07$\pm$0.5)$\times$10-5이고, 이로부터 년변형속도는 (0.13$\pm$0.063)$\mu$/yr 임을 알 수 있었으며, 변형의 경향을 보면 변형량이 10$\mu$ 보다 큰 값이 한반도의 동해안 지역에 분포하고 있으며, 서부쪽에는 10$\mu$이하의 값이 분포하고 있는 것으로 나타나 한반도의 동해안에서 지진의 발생빈도가 높은 것을 고려한다면 본 연구로부터 계산된 결과는 장래의 연구를 위해 중요한 데이터가 될 것이다. 본 연구에서 얻은 주변형축의 방향은 전국적으로 $77.6^{\circ}$$\pm$$13.5^{\circ}$방향임을 보여주고 있어 한반도의 지각은 ENE~WSW방향으로 압축상태에 있음을 알 수 있었으며, 이 결과는 지질학자나 지진학자들의 연구로부터 얻은 결과와 P-축의 방향이 일치하고 있고, 최대전단변형 이론과 일치하고 있는 것으로 나타났다.

In and around the Korean Peninsula, 9 intraplate earthquake mechanisms since 1936 were analyzed to understand the regional stress orientation and tectonics. These earthquakes are largest ones in this century and may represent the characteristics of earthquake in this region. Focal mechanism of these earthquakes show predominant strike-slip faulting with small amount of thrust components. The average P-axis is almost horizontal ENE-WSW. This indicate that not only the subducting Pacific Plate but also the indenting Indian Plate controls earthquake mechanism in the far east of the Eurasian Plate.
