The purpose of this study is to evaluate the effects of Ankle Exercise Program on Muscle Strength and Balance in Middle Aged Woman. Subjects of this study, among the patients who were diagnosed with obesity in the study, for patients total of 8 people have agreed to research. Experimental group 4 people, control group 4 people, was a total of 8 people. Group-specific arbitration method, was applied to Unstable supporting surface exercise program(experimental group) and stable supporting surface exercise program(control group). Each training courses 30 minutes for 6 weeks, examined the changes in Functional Reach Test(FRT) and One Leg Standing(OLST), Dorsi Flexion(DF) and Plantar Flexion(PF) ability to examine a total of 6-week course effectively. The intervention were compared by measuring before and after. There were significant improvements in the subscales of the muscle strength and balance test of those who practiced with the unstable supporting surface exercsie program, while the control group showed no significant changes. Therefore, unstable supporting surface exercsie program is effective in improvement of to improve the muscle strength and balance in woman with obesity.

Purpose: The purpose of this study is to investigate the effects of exercising on a stable and unstable surface for a period of six weeks on the arms of female university students in their twenties. Methods: The subjects consisted of 20 female university students. The experimental group consisted of ten individuals who exercised on an unstable surface, and the control group consisted of ten individuals who exercised on a stable surface. The exercise program was composed of aerobic exercises (i.e. Back and forth movements for clapping and raising cross with both arms) and muscle-strengthening exercises (i.e. Push-ups and raising arms). We measured the subjects before the experiment and after the exercise program using the following measurements tool: a ruler and T-scan plus. The same person measured changes in arm size with a ruler three times and calculated the average to minimize any errors in measurement. We controlled the subjects to measure the amount of arm muscle with a T-scan plus. Twelve hours before the measurements were taken subjects were not permitted to exercise, and four hours before the measurements were taken subjects were not permitted to eat anything. Results: The two groups had no significant difference, but each group felt the effect of the exercise program. Conclusion: There was no difference between the experimental group and the control group. However, it was determined that the exercise had a greater effect on an unstable surface than a stable surface.

Macroglossia is an obstacle in regard to general prosthodontic restoration. Not only is it difficult to obtain support and stability from dentures manufactured from normal protocol, obtaining efficacy from basic mastication is also difficult. In such cases, realizing harmony between the occlusion and surrounding muscle structures may be important with regard to manufacture of stable full dentures, and it is necessary to form the appropriate polished surface for this case. The neutral zone is defined as the potential area resulting from the neuromuscular function that results in equilibrium between the outward force exerted by the tongue and the inward force exerted by the lips and cheeks. The artificial teeth of the full denture lies in this area, and if the polished zone follows the anatomic form of the dynamic muscles, the movement of the muscles simply acts as an element of stabilizing the dentures improving the esthetics through facial support.

Successful cases of the implant-assisted removable partial denture and implant overdentures are reported in which a few implants are additionally placed to secure the maintenance, support, and stability of the denture when there are a few residual teeth. When the lateral force applied to the tooth abutment and implant surveyed crown is minimized, the horizontal and rotational movement of the denture is significantly reduced which is an effective method that can improve the address in patients who complain of reduced retention and stability of their dentures. In this case, a small number of implants were placed to fabricate an implant-assisted removable partial denture with implant surveyed crown in the maxilla and implant overdenture with Locator^® attachment in the mandible to improve the retention, stability, and support of the dentures. The patient was satisfied with both functional and aesthetic aspects after the final dentures were delivered.

Purpose: The purpose of this study was to compare the effects of the balance training on the stable and unstable supporting surfaces for the subjects with functional ankle instability. Methods: Twenty-nine subjects with functional ankle instability were randomly assigned to the stable group (n=14) and the unstable group (n=15). Balance training was conducted twenty minutes a day on the stable surface for the stable group and on the airostep for the unstable group three times a week for four weeks. Balance training program was consisted of ten steps by eye opened or closed and two or one leg standing. X-speed for transverse balance and Y-speed for longitudinal balance were measured with eye opened and closed in affected leg standing position. Results: There were significant improvements of balance ability in eye opened (p<.01) and eye closed standing (p<.01) in stable group. Unstable group also showed significant improvements of balance ability in eye opened (p<.01) and eye closed standing (p<.01). There were no statistical differences in the magnitude of improvement between the groups (p<.05). Conclusions: Based on such results, it can be said that balance training on the stable surface is effective as much as training on the unstable surface for the subjects with functional ankle instability.

본 연구에서 자사주매입이 최초로 허용된 1994년 5월부터 1999년 12월까지 자사주매입을 공시한 415건을 대상으로 24개월간 장기성과를 분석한 결과, 자사주매입기업의 성과에 관한 정보신호가설이 부분적으로 지지되는 것으로 나타났다. 자사주매입의 목적별로 보면, 가격안정을 목적으로 한 자사주매입은 정(+)의 성과를 나타낸 반면에 경영권 보호를 목적으로 한 자사주매입은 부(-)의 성과를 나타냈는데, 이는 Denis(1990)의 연구와 다소 일치하는 것으로서 경영권 보호 목적의 자사주매입은 주주에게 오히려 손실을 가져다 줄 수 있음을 의미한다. 자사주매입기업의 특성변수로 기업규모와 BE/ME를 고려하여 분석한 결과, 기업규모가 작을수록 주식의 장기성과가 반드시 크다고는 할 수 없었으나, BE/ME가 낮을수록 장기성과가 비교적 크게 나타났다. Fama-French(1993)의 3요인 모형을 이용한 분석에서, 자사주매입이 주식의 장기성과에 정(+)의 영향을 미친다는 사실을 확인할 수 있었고, 표본을 다양한 방법으로 재구성하여 자사주매입이 장기성과에 정(+)의 영향을 미친다는 것을 재확인할 수 있었다. 나아가, 자사주매입기업의 장기성과에 대한 횡단면 회귀분석에서, 대주주지분율과 사전수익률이 주식의 장기성과에 부분적으로 영향을 미치는 것으로 나타났다.

1830년에는 영국의 Clarence가 16.4 kg/m의 압연레일을 제작하였다. 이것은 그후 영국에서 널리 사용되었던 우두(牛頭)레일(bull-head rail)이라 부르는 형의 원조라고도 한다. 1837년에는 영국의 J. Locke가 그림 9와 같은 쌍두(雙頭)레일(double head rail)을 고안하였다. 쌍두레일은 두부와 저부가 같은 단면으로 하여 레일 교환시에 상하를 전도하여 다시 사용할 목적이 있었다. 그러나, 목적에 반하여 경년(經年)과 함께 레일 하부의 레일을 지지하는 체어(chair)부에 접하는 개소가 손상하기 때문에 저부를 주행면으로 사용하기에는 지장이 생기기 쉽고, 이때문에 영국에서는 1844년에 고안된 우두레일로 바뀌었다. 이것은 두부와 저부의 단면이 대칭적이지 않고 두부가 약간 크다. 이 레일은 제조상 비교적 압연이 용이하고 냉각이 보다 빠르기 때문에 똑바른 레일을 얻기가 쉽지만, 레일의 횡방향 안정성 등에 문제가 있다.

The benefits of utilizing internal reinforced members, such as soil nails and ground anchors, in maintaining stable excavations and slopes have been known among geotechnical engineers to be very effective. Occasionally, however, both soil nails and ground anchors are simultaneously used in one excavation site. In the present study, a method of limit equilibrium stability analysis of the excavation zone reinforced with the vertically or horizontally mixed nail-anchor system is proposed to evaluate the global safety factor with respect to a sliding failure. The postulated failure wedges are determined based on the results of the $FLAC^{2D}\; 및\; FLAC^{3D}$ program analyses. This study also deals with a determination of the required thickness of the shotcrete facing. An excessive facing thickness may be required due to both the stress concentration and the relative displacement at the interface zone between the soil nailing system and the ground anchor system. A simple finite element method of analysis is presented to estimate the corresponding relative displacement at the interface zone between two different support systems. As an efficient resolution to reduce the facing thickness, the modified bearing plate system is also proposed. Finally with various analysis related to the effects of design parameters, the predicted displacements are compared with the results of the $FLAC^{2D}$ program analyses.

Purposed: This study was conducted to find out by ultrasonic waves the thickness change of the deep abdominal muscles, such as transverse abdominal, internal oblique and external oblique when performing general bridge exercise on the stable surface (GBE), single-legged bridge exercise on the stable surface (BES), bridge exercise with a sling (SBE) and single-legged bridge exercise with a sling (SBS). Methods: The subject, 33 healthy adults(18 men and 15 women) in their 20s of V university in J city were subjected to take four postures of GBE, BES, SBE, and SBS. When performing each posture, the thickness of transverse abdominal, internal oblique and external oblique were measured by ultrasonic waves and analyzed by repeated measures of ANOVA. This significance level was set to be p<.05. Results: Muscle thickness was increased in the order of BES, SBE, and GBE in the external oblique, resulting in statistically significant differences(p<.001). The internal oblique was significantly thicker in SBE and SBS rather than in GBE, and was thicker in SBE and SBS rather than in BES (p<.01). The thickness of the transverse abdominal was significantly increased in SBS than in GBE (p<.01). Conclusion: As the result, it may be more effective for the trunk stabilization exercises to activate the internal oblique and transverse abdominal by applying both-legged or single-legged bridge exercise in slings.
