In human walking, muscle co-contraction which produces simultaneous activities of multiple muscles is important in motor control mechanism of the central nervous system. This study aims to understand positive and negative covariation mechanism of inter-muscle activities during walking. In this study, we measured electromyography (EMG) in leg muscles. To identify motor modules, we recored EMG from 4 leg muscles bilaterally (the tibialis anterior, medial gastrocnemius, rectus femoris and medial hamstring muscles) and performed non-negative matrix factorization (NMF) and principa component analysis (PCA). Then, we computed covariation values from various combinations between muscles or motor modules and used two-way repeated measures analysis of variance to identify significantly different covariation patterns between muscle combinations. As the results, we found significant differences between covariation values of muscle combinations (p < 0.05). muscle groups within the same motor modules produced the positive covariations. However, there were strong negative covariation between motor modules. There was negative covariation in all muscle combination. Stable inter-module negative covariation suggests that motor modules may be the control unit in the complex motor coordination.

Lately, there has been increasing research on the prediction of motion performance using artificial intelligence for the safe design and operation of ships. However, compared to conventional ships, research on small fishing boats is insufficient. In this paper, we propose a model that estimates the motion response essential for calculating the motion performance of small fishing boats using a deep neural network. Hydrodynamic analysis was conducted on 15 small fishing boats, and a database was established. Environmental conditions and main particulars were applied as input data, and the response amplitude operators were utilized as the output data. The motion response predicted by the trained deep neural network model showed similar trends to the hydrodynamic analysis results. The results showed that the high-frequency motion responses were predicted well with a low error. Based on this study, we plan to extend existing research by incorporating the hull shape characteristics of fishing boats into a deep neural network model.

미농무성에서 개발된 유역수문모형 SWAT을 국내유역에 적용할 경우 일반적으로 일단위 유출 수문곡선의 첨두부가 관측치에 비해 과소하게 모의되는 경향이 있다. 본 연구에서는 이러한 원인에 대해서 고찰하고, 첨두부가 작게 모의되는 문제를 해결하기 위해서 지표유출의 지체와 관련된 서브루틴을 개선하였다. SWAT 모형에서는 지표유출의 지체는 운동파 집중시간(kinematic wave time of concentration)을 변수로 하는 지수형 감쇠함수를 사용하고 있다. 그러나 집중시간 계산식에서 지표유출에 기여하는 초과우량을 6.35mm/hr로 작은 고정값으로 가정하고 있어 큰 호우가 발생한 경우에도 집중시간이 길게 계산되는 구조를 가지고 있다. 이로 인해 지표유출의 지체 효과가 커서 첨두유량이 과소하게 산정되는 문제가 발생한다. 따라서 본 연구에서는 집중시간 계산시 고정값 6.35mm/hr 대신에 일 단위로 모의된 지표유출 발생량이 입력되도록 알고리즘을 수정하였다. 이 방법은 지표유출량의 크기에 따라 집중시간을 가변적으로 산정되게 함으로써 수문곡선의 첨두부를 보다 유연하게 구현할 수 있는 장점이 있다. 모형의 개선 효과를 평가하기 위해서 충주댐 상류유역을 대상으로 개선 전, 후의 일 단위 유출수문곡선의 첨두부를 비교하였으며, 그 결과 큰 홍수가 발생한 기간의 첨두유량이 10 % 이상 증가하는 것으로 분석되었다.

하천의 수위와 유량에 대한 정확한 정보는 이수, 치수와 같은 수자원 관리에 있어서 가장 기본적인 기초자료가 된다. 하천 수위와 유량 자료를 확보하기 위한 지속적인 직접 계측 방법은 많은 시간과 비용이 소모되며, 홍수 시에는 위험성이 존재하여 자료 확보가 불가능하다. 따라서 수치모형을 이용한 수위-유량 자료의 예측과 활용이 필요하며, 2차원 수치모형의 경계조건을 설정할 경우에도 활용할 필요성이 있다. 본 연구에서는 복단면 개수로 및 불규칙한 하상을 보이는 횡단면 상에서의 단위유량 예측을 위한 유한요소모형을 개발한다. 지배방정식은 Wark 등 (1990)이 제시한 운동량방정식을 이용하며, 단면형상과 Manning 조도계수, 그리고 수위를 알면, 결과적으로 흐름방향 단위유량의 횡방향 분포를 얻을 수 있다. 개발된 모형의 검증을 위해 실측 자료와 비교하며, 또한 Darcy-Weisbach 마찰계수를 이용하는 Darby와 Thorne (1996)의 모형 결과와도 비교한다. 검증된 모형의 알고리즘을 2차원 모형의 상류단 경계조건 설정에 활용하여, 절점별 유입유량을 차등분배 시켰을 때와 그렇지 못했을 때의 결과를 비교한다. 또한 수위를 경계조건으로 입력하였을 때 개발 모형을 활용하여 유입유량을 예측하는 활용방안을 제시한다.

Objective : Localized vibration has been shown to have a positive effect on recovery of upper-limb motor function in patients with hemiparetic stroke, but there has been little research on kinematic analysis for qualitative changes in movement. This study investigated kinematic changes in elbow motion during reaching after localized vibration in persons with hemiparetic stroke. Methods : This study used a one-group, cross-over trial design. Ten chronic stroke patients randomly received localized vibrations on the affected biceps brachii for 5, 10, or 20 min, at 70 Hz. Kinematic analysis of reaching was measured using a 3-D motion analysis system. Variables included peak angular velocity, time to peak angular velocity, and movement units during elbow motion. Result : Affected side elbow motion during reaching was faster, smoother, and more efficient after 20 min localized vibration. Peak angular velocity increased (p<0.05), and time to peak angular velocity (p<0.05) and the movement unit were significantly decreased (p<0.05) during elbow motion for reaching. Conclusion : Localized vibration can improve kinematic components during reaching motion in persons with hemiparetic stroke.

This paper proposed semiotic model to explain representation process of time in cinema. Limitations of cinematic narratology which explain representation process of time in cinema were indicated, then alternative explanations of Deleuzian philosophy of cinema were proposed. After discussion about articulations of cinematic code, Deleuzian concept of movement-image was suggested as semiotic minimal unit of cinema. In cinema, Movement-image is divided two different aspects ; "normal movement-image" and "abnormal movement-image". Therefore, two different semiotic representation process of time was reconstructed in accordance with Peircean semiosis theory. In this two different semiotic process, modern cinema emphasize the direct representation process of time with "abnormal movement-image". As Deleuze indicated, The "time-image" is presented in this semiotic process. The "time-image" makes it possible to consider "time itself" as philosophical fact which is laid between reality and cinema, This semiotic process more emphasizes pure expressionality than representationality. Deleuzian philosophical journey through cinema was started in this point.

The authors' theory developed in the preceding Paper 1 was applied to plastic deformation of ceramics, metals, alloys and single crystals. For polycrystalline substances, the flow mechanisms due to dislocation movement and grain boundary movement appear together or separately according to the experimental conditions whereas for single crystals, only the mechanism of dislocation movement appears. The parameters appearing in the flow equations $({\alpha}_{d1},\;1/{\beta}_{d1})and\;({\alpha}_{gj}/X_{gj},\;1/{\beta}_{gj})$ (j = 1 or 2), and the activation enthalpies ${\Delta}H_{k1}^{\neq}$ (k = d or g) were determined and tabulated. Here, the subscript d1 indicates the first kind of dislocation flow units and gj expresses the jth kind of grain boundary flow units. The predictions of the theory were compared with experiment with good agreement. Concerning the activation enthalpies, it was found that ${\Delta}H_{d1}^{\neq}$ 〉{\Delta}H_{g1}^{\neq}$ and that the former agrees with the activation enthalpy for bulk self-diffusion whereas the latter agrees with the activation enthalpy for grain boundary self-diffusion. These facts support the adequacy of the authors' theory which is considered as a generalized theory of plastic deformation.

In this study, an improved post-processing technique for correcting MRI artifact due to the unknown respiratory motion in the imaging plane is presented. Respiratory motion is modeled by a two-Dimensional linear expending-shrinking movement. Assuming that the body tissues are incompressible fluid like materials, the proton density per unit volume of the imaging object is kept constant. According to the introduced model, respiratory motion imposes phase error, non-uniform sampling and amplitude modulation distortions on the acquired MRI data. When the motion parameters are known or can be estimatead a reconstruction algorithm based on biliner superposition method was used to correct the MRI artifact. In the case of motion parameters are unknown, first, the spectrum shift method is applied to find the respiratory fluctuation function, x directional expansion coefficient and x directional expansion center. Next, y directional expansion coefficient and y directional expansion center are estimated by using the minimum energy method. Finally, the validity of this proposed method is shown to be effective by using the simulated motion images.
