Due to increasing frequency of yellow dust, not to mention high rate of precipitation and cloud formation in summer season of Korea, atmospheric correction of satellite remote sensing is necessary. This research analyzes the effect of atmospheric correction has on imagery classification by comparing DN distribution before and after atmospheric correction. The image used in the research is LANDSAT-5 TM. As for atmospheric correction module, commercial product ATCOR, FLAASH as well as COST model released on the internet, were used. The result of experiment shows that class separability increased in building areas.

This study was performed to examine the effect of convergence-based simulation education on the problem solving ability and self-efficacy and confidence of core fundamental nursing skill performance for nursing students. A non equivalent control group post-test only design was utilized(experimental group(n=97), control group (n=87)). Data were analyzed using independent t-test, Chi-square test and Pearson's correlation. The scores of the problem solving ability(t=-2.04, p=.043) and confidence of core fundamental nursing skill performance(t=5.31, p<.001) were higher than those of the experimental group than control group. It is necessary to find ways to iterative and convergent research that verifies the continuous development and effectiveness of various courses.

The purpose of this study was to identify the factors influencing confidence in performing core basic nursing skills(CBNS) for low-grade nursing students. The data were collected from 213 nursing students from one nursing college located in G do from November 25 to December 4, 2020. Data were analyed by frequencies, t-test, ANOVA, Scheffe test, Pearson's correlation coefficient, multiple regression using SPSS 21.0. Differences in confidence in performing CBNS according to general characteristics were university life satisfaction, practical satisfaction, academic achievement, and interpersonal relationship. Confidence in performing CBNS was significant positive correlation with self-efficacy, major satisfaction, and learning attitude. The factors influencing confidence in performing CBNS were self-efficacy and learning attitude, and explanatory power was 32.5%. Based on the results of this study, it is necessary to develop learning strategies and educational programs and verify the effectiveness of lower class nursing students to increse their confidence in performing CBNS.

본 논문에서는 단일 카메라로부터 주어진 영상을 실시간으로 장애물과 비장애물 영역으로 분류한 후 VFH 를 이용하여 안전한 경로를 선정하는 실시간 주행 시스템을 개발한다. 제안된 시스템은 점유 그리드맵 생성기와 VFH 기반의 선정기로 구성된다. 점유 그리드맵 생성기는 입력된 $320{\times}240$ 영상의 색조와 명도 정보를 이용하여 실시간으로 배경과 장애물 영역을 분류하고, 이를 바탕으로 위험도에 따라 10 개의 그레이 레벨을 가지는 $32{\times}24$ 의 점유 그리드맵을 생성한다. VFH를 이용하여 폴라 히스토그램을 작성한 후 밀도가 낮은 곳으로 주행 경로를 결정 한다. 제안된 기술의 효율성을 증명하기 위하여 다양한 형태의 장애물을 포함하는 실내 및 실외 환경에서 평가하였으며 센서 기반의 그 결과는 기존의 센서기반의 주행시스템과 비교 되었다. 그 결과 제안된 시스템은 88%의 정확도를 보였으며, 기존의 시스템보다 실시간으로 빠르고 안전한 주행을 수행할 수 있음이 증명되었다.

This convergence study was done to identify the effectiveness of core nursing skills improvement program on nursing skills competence in nursing students. The design of research was one group pretest-posttest and the participants were 158 nursing students. The core nursing skills improvement program was composed of 7 fundamental nursing skills(vital sign, intramuscular injection, oral medication, subcutaneous injection, enema, oxygen therapy and nelaton). The data were collected using self-report questionnaires from January 19 to 23, 2015 and analyzed using paired t-test. The mean score of nursing skills competence in posttest was significantly higher than those in pretest (t=-4.71 ~ -8.00, p<.001). The score for self-confidence(t=-11.61, p<.001) and that for problem solving skills(t=-2.04, p=.043) increased significantly after core nursing skills improvement program. The results indicate that core nursing skills improvement program was effective in improving nursing skills competence.

Distraction osteogenesis is applied to correct mandible or maxilla deformities. Owing to the distractor being away from the skin, it is not aesthetic. Infection can arise due to manual part. And therefore, it is necessary to make the distractor using a new mechanism. 3D software was used for the intraoral distractor modeling. 3D meshes were used to analyze the stress distribution of the distractor was analyzed using Finite element analysis software. This research developed a intraoral distractor for continuous mandible distraction through convergence study. Base on the results, it provide helpful data for future version of the wireless intraoral distractor in other fields of bio and medical engineering.

This study was conducted to confirm the effect of vibration on muscle activity in IASTM. The subjects were 20 healthy adults. The intervention applied in this study was IASTM applied to the biceps brachii muscle. In the case of the experimental group, unlike the control group, the vibration function was turned on when IASTM was applied. The interventions for each group were applied, and the muscle activity of the biceps brachii muscle was measured before and after the intervention. All measured values were calculated as %MVIC values, dependent t test and independent t test were performed and analyzed for comparisons. As a result of this study, only in the control group, the muscle activity of the biceps brachii muscle after the intervention was significantly decreased compared to before the intervention. When vibration is applied together with IASTM, the relaxation effect is reduced, which is considered to be inappropriate for treatment.

Sleep disorders, increasingly prevalent in the general population, induce impairment in daytime functioning and other clinical problems. As changes in cortical excitability have been reported as potential pathophysiological mechanisms underlying sleep disorders, multiple studies have explored clinical effects of modulating cortical excitability through non-invasive brain stimulation in treating sleep disorders. In this study, we critically reviewed clinical studies using non-invasive brain stimulation, particularly transcranial magnetic stimulation (TMS) and transcranial direct current stimulation (tDCS), for treatment of sleep disorders. Previous studies have reported inconsistent therapeutic effects of TMS and tDCS for various kinds of sleep disorders. Specifically, low-frequency repetitive TMS (rTMS) and cathodal tDCS, both of which exert an inhibitory effect on cortical excitability, have shown inconsistent therapeutic effects for insomnia. On the other hand, high-frequency rTMS and anodal tDCS, both of which facilitate cortical excitability, have improved the symptoms of hypersomnia. In studies of restless legs syndrome, high-frequency rTMS and anodal tDCS induced inconsistent therapeutic effects. Single TMS and rTMS have shown differential therapeutic effects for obstructive sleep apnea. These inconsistent findings indicate that the distinctive characteristics of each non-invasive brain stimulation method and specific pathophysiological mechanisms underlying particular sleep disorders should be considered in an integrated manner for treatment of various sleep disorders. Future studies are needed to provide optimized TMS and tDCS protocols for each sleep disorder, considering distinctive effects of non-invasive brain stimulation and pathophysiology of each sleep disorder.

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the quality of chest compression by conducting comparison research between mechanical chest compressor(LUCAS) and manuale cardiopulmonary resuscitation(CPR) in a out-of-hospital environment and suggest effective advanced cardiac life support using mechanical chest compressors. For this, a out-of-hospital cardiac arrest was simulated with a team of 3 ambulance workers, and manuale CPR and CPR using LUCAS were performed on site and during transport in an ambulance. The research results are as follows: the comparison of manuale CPR between on site and in an ambulance revealed that on-site manuale CPR showed significant differences in the average compression depth, compression rate, and relaxation rate. Second, the comparison between manuale CPR and LUCAS in an ambulance showed significant differences in the average compression depth, compression rate, the number of compression per minute.
