The purpose of this study was to analyze the types and characteristics of public complaints caused by the landscape architecture projects in the case of apartment complex. Furthermore, its purpose was also to propose as the basis data for the minimization of complaints in the course of future landscape architecture projects. To analyze and categorize the apartment complex civil complaints, we collected basic and case study data from LH Corporation, SH Corporation and GICO from 2009 to 2012. We also categorized 672 landscape complaints to 73 categories and conducted a survey from residents and landscape architecture. This Survey is to use IPA can collect character(public-private), handling of civil affair(easy-hard) and analyze typical characters and difference of civil complaint awareness between landscape architecture and residents. First, we were categorized 73 civil complaints by type in 5 categories such as park, green space and street trees, pedestrian road, facilities, and others. Second, the most common landscape complaints appear in green spaces, street trees, facilities, pedestrian roads and park orders. Third, results of the analysis conducted for each item which are publicity and measures the ease. 'Facilities', 'landscape and greenery', 'pedestrian road' and others were commonly appears from residents and professional awareness of the complaints. However, complaints of park appear different awareness between landscape architecture and residents. Fourth, 35 from 73 civil complaints(47.9%) are having high publicity and easy to measure, 25 civil complaints(34.2%) has analyzed to individual and difficult to measure so about the these complaints need to check from the design step so that it is necessary to minimize the problem of additional expense by civil complaints burden and decrease the confidence of residence problem were considered.

Purpose: Bipolar hemiarthroplasty is used as an alternative to open reduction and internal fixation for unstable intertrochanteric fractures in elderly patients. Recent advances in medical systems and technologies have resulted in increased survival rates after intertrochanteric fractures of the femur, requiring selection of the appropriate femoral stems considering the mid- to long-term duration of survival. Hemiarthroplasty was performed for unstable intertrochanteric fractures using a double tapered quadrilateral femoral stem (C2 stem), and the clinical and radiological results were evaluated as a five-year follow-up post-surgery. Materials and Methods: From January 2004 to December 2013, 43 patients (43 hips) who underwent hemiarthroplasty with a C2 stem were enrolled in this study. Their mean age was 78.6 years (range, 70-84 years), and the mean follow-up period was 85.4 months (range, 60-96 months). During the follow-up period, clinical parameters, such as the changes in pain, walking ability, and functional status, were examined. Radiologically, changes in the proximal femur, such as osteoporosis and bone resorption of cortical bone, were noted. Complications that occurred during the follow-up period, such as dislocation and prosthetic features, were also reviewed. Results: Initially, the pain was relieved postoperatively, but it increased four years after surgery. The walking ability was reduced by two steps in nine patients after 60 months, and the Harris hip score was reduced significantly postoperatively after two to three years. Radiologically, cortical osteoporosis occurred in 14 patients. Five patients developed cortical bone resorption. Four of them showed nonunion of the trochanteric fracture fragments, and three of them suffered reverse oblique fractures. Conclusion: Careful selection considering the general health condition and remaining lifespan of the patient would be necessary for primary hip hemiarthroplasty using a 3C type cementless femoral stem for unstable intertrochanteric fractures in elderly patients with osteoporosis.

In this paper, we present an inertial sensor-based motion capturing system to measure and analyze whole body movements. This system implements a wireless AHRS(attitude heading reference system) we developed using a combination of rate gyroscope, accelerometer and magnetometer sensor signals. Several AHRS modules mounted on segments of the patient's body provide the quaternions representing the patient segments's orientation in space. We performed 3D motion capture using the quaternion data calculated. And a method is also proposed for calculating three-dimensional inter-segment joint angle which is an important bio-mechanical measure for a variety of applications related to rehabilitation. To evaluate the performance of our AHRS module, the Vicon motion capture system, which offers millimeter resolution of 3D spatial displacements and orientations, is used as a reference. The evaluation resulted in a RMSE of 2.56 degree. The results suggest that our system will provide an in-depth insight into the effectiveness, appropriate level of care, and feedback of the rehabilitation process by performing real-time limbs or gait analysis during the post-stroke recovery process.

Posterolateral instability of the knee occurs more commonly in association with an injury to anterior and posterior cruciate ligament and combined injuries are severe injuries that result in significant functional instability and articular cartilage degeneration. Reconstruction of the anterior and posterior cruciate ligament without an appropriate treatment of posterolateral corner injury result in failure of the reconstructed cruciate ligaments. Meticulous physical examinations, imaging studies, lower limb alignment and gait pattern should be evaluated. Acute grade III isolated or combined injury of the posterolateral corner is best treated within three weeks by direct repair, or augumentation, or reconstruction. The appropriate surgical method or combined methods are selected among the several methods of posterior and posterolateal reconstruction, and all injuried posterolateral and cruciate ligament structures are anatomically reconstructed simultaneously or by stages. If a varus alignment and varus thrust is disclosed in chronic posterolateral instability of knee, soft tissue reconstructions laterally are highly unlikely to be able to correct tile problem. It is appropriate that valgus osteotomy should be done before soft tissue reconstruction and reevaluate the posterolateral instability about 6 months later.

Purpose: The purpose of this study was to demonstrate the effects of a stepwise proprioceptive neuromuscular facilitation (PNF) pattern therapy in weightbearing positions on the balance and walking functions of a patient with subacute stroke. Methods: The patient was a 78-year-old man with right post-stroke hemiparesis who had decreased balance and gait function. During the baseline and withdrawal phases, no intervention was applied; however, in the intervention phase, the patient received a stepwise PNF pattern therapy in weight-bearing positions. Results: During the intervention phase, the LOS improved by 296.51% (from $2482.13mm^2$ to $626mm^2$), and walking speed improved by 18.70% (from 0.75 m/s to 0.64 m/s). The LOS and 10MWT values appeared to be clinically significantly improved after the intervention. In addition, the scores of the BBS and ABC scales improved by 100% (from 36 points to 18 points) and 56.52% (from 720 points to 460 points), respectively. Conclusion: These findings suggest that a stepwise PNF pattern therapy may be helpful in enhancing the balance and walking function of a patient with subacute stroke. Further studies are required to validate the results of this study.

최근 기후변화 및 지구온난화의 영향으로 집중호우, 돌발홍수, 가뭄 등 기상 이변이 빈번하게 발생하고 있어 물관리의 불확실성과 복잡성이 매우 높아지고 있다. 대규모 하천의 경우 다목적댐과 다기능보를 이용하여 홍수 및 가뭄에 대응이 비교적 용이하나, 중소하천의 경우 하천길이가 짧고 하천경사가 급해서 홍수파의 이동시간이 짧기 때문에 홍수대비를 위한 시간이 매우 짧다. 또한 중소하천 관리를 담당하는 지자체는 열악한 재정 여건과 전문인력 및 기술력 부족으로 인해 예방보다 사후복구에 집중하는 상황이며, 최근 하천 고수부지를 수변공원, 천변주차장 등으로의 공간적 활용이 증가됨에 따라 홍수발생시 위험성도 증가하고 있어 예방 및 대응 중심의 홍수 모니터링 기준 수립이 시급하다. 이에 K-water는 공익사업의 일환으로 K-water의 홍수 및 하천관리 노하우를 지자체와 공유하고 있다. 해당지자체의 과거 기상 및 수문자료들을 활용하여 홍수분석을 수행하고 지자체 중소하천에 최적화된 우량 및 수위 홍수 모니터링 기준을 수립하여 선제적 홍수대응을 할 수 있는 여건을 조성하였다. 또한 해당지자체의 우량 수위관측소의 분포와 용수전용댐 및 농업용저수지를 반영하여 유역특성을 고려한 홍수분석모형을 구축하였으며, 예상강우에 따른 주요 지점별 예상수위 및 도달시간 분석으로 지자체 담당자의 홍수대응을 지원하고자 한다. 하천 수위국 기준의 우량 알람은 하천 수위 상승 전 예비 알람의 성격으로 수위국의 수위가 상승하기 전 대비할 수 있는 선제적 대응 예방시간 확보에 도움이 될 수 있다. 또한 단계별 수위모니터링 기준에 의거하여 보행자 및 차량 통행제한 등의 조치를 취할 수 있으며, 제방월류 전 사전대응시간을 확보할 수 있어 자자체에서 능동적으며 선제적인 홍수 대응이 가능할 것으로 판단된다. 하지만 하천 수위국의 상황이 홍수에 따라 변화될 수 있으며, 홍수량 재산정 또는 하천기본 계획의 재수립 등 정책적, 현실적인 상황의 변화로 인해 모니터링 기준이 변화되어야 하는 경우에는 지속적인 보완이 필요할 것으로 사료된다.
