섬유제품의 유해물질의 유해성에 관한 연구로서는 가공처리제의 공해실태, 시판되고 있는 천 및 의류제품의 formaldehyde 함량조사와 인체장해실태가 조사된 정도이며, 무기 화합물, 유기 화합물질의 발암성 주요인이 되는 다이옥신에 관한 유해성평가는 전무한 실정이다. 환경친화적인 활동이 활발한 유럽 각국에서는 섬유제품의 환경마크인 Eco-Label를 기준으로 하며, 미국과 일본에서는 발암성의 원인이 되며 내분비계 장애물질인 다이옥신에 관한 피복의 유해성 평가에 관한 연구가 활발하게 행해지고 있다. (중략)

Avian Influenza is an infectious desease of birds. The infection can cause a wide spectrum of symptoms in birds, ranging from mild illness to a rapidly fatal diseases which might bring a tremendous economic loss to poultry farms[1]. It can also give fatal diseases to human. Therefore it is important to surveil wildbirds that are primary transportation of avian influenza. This report showed a relationship between avian influenza and a habitat of wildbirds using system dynamics, and concluded with suggestion for surveilance.

교통수단의 발달과 경제활동이 활발해짐에 따라 많은 오염문제가 발생하였는데, 특히 대도시내의 산업단지에서 발생하는 오염물질들은 주거지역과 인접하여 위치하고 있기 때문에 대도시 시민들의 생활과 밀접한 관계를 맺고 있다고 하겠다. 우리나라에서는 2001년부터 대기환경기준에서 TSP항목을 삭제하고 PM10으로 단일화하여 규제를 실시하였으며 이러한 PM10은 인체의 호흡기 계통에 치명적인 악영향을 주는 것으로 오래전부터 밝혀져 왔다. 그러므로 분진의 발생을 억제하여 인간 활동에 불편이 없도록 하기 위해서는 분진의 발생원을 정확히 파악하고 이에 대한 대책을 마련해야 한다.

인체 활동에 따라 우리 몸에는 다양한 전기적 생체신호가 발생하며 특히 뇌의 활동에 따라 발생되는 뇌파(EEG)는 비침습적 방법으로 측정될 수 있는 장점 때문에 뇌기능 연구 및 임상 등에서 널리 사용되어지고 있다. 또한 임상에서는 주로 뇌 신경계 질환환자의 병인 규명 및 기전 연구를 위하여 뇌파가 사용되어지고 있다. 최근에는 컴퓨터 발달에 따라 카오스, 비선형 이론 등의 다양한 방법으로 복잡한 시계열 신호인 뇌파를 분석하는 기법들이 개발되어 뇌파의 특징점을 찾아 임상에 활용하거나 뇌기능 연구에 적용하려는 연구가 진행되고 있다. 본 논문에서는 잡화(artifact)가 섞여 있는 뇌파신호 및 artifact가 제거된 다음 재구성된 뇌파신호(reconstructed EEG signal), 그리고 독립성분으로 분리된 각각의 신호에 대하여 특징점을 찾기 위하여 비선형 및 선형 분석을 실시하여 유의한 차이점을 밝혔다.

본 논문은 실내 환경에서 스마트 워치(smart watch)를 이용하여 사용자의 원시 데이터를 수집, 가공하고, 이를 통해 사용자의 다양한 복합 동작을 인식하는 방법을 제안한다. 사용자의 동작을 인식하는 방법들은 다양하다. 특히 최근 웨어러블 기기(wearable device)들이 각광받으면서 웨어러블 기기를 이용하여 인체 동작이나 활동 상태 등의 생체신호를 인식하려는 다양한 시도가 일어나고 있다. 하지만 동작이나 활동 상태에 관한 많은 연구들이 센서를 허리에 부착하는 등의 특정한 상황만을 상정하거나 위성항법장치(GPS, global positioning system)에 의존한 실외 환경에 국한되어 있는데, 이는 대부분의 시간을 가정과 직장, 이동 수단 등의 실내 환경에서 소비하는 현대인들의 시간 소비 패턴과는 거리가 있다. 본 연구에서는 스마트 워치의 가속도계(accelerometer), 각속도계(gyroscope), 심박계(heart bit), 압력계(barometer) 등 다양한 센서를 통해 원시데이터를 수집, 가공하여 사용자의 앉기, 서기, 오르막이나 내리막의 걷고 뛰기, 계단의 오르내리기 등 실내에서 일어날 수 있는 복합 동작을 인식하는 방법을 제안한다.

Human-powered self-generating devices have been attractive with its operation characteristic independent from outer environment such as weather condition and wind speed. However, conventional self-generators have low electric power output due to their weakly-coupled electromagnetic structure. More importantly, rotary crank motion which is usually adopted by conventional self-generator to generate electricity requires specific skeletal muscles to maintain large torque circular motion and consequently, causes fatigue on those muscles before it can generate enough amount of electricity for any practical application. Without improvement in electric power output and usability, the human-powered self-generator could not be used in everyday life. This study aims to develop a human-powered self-generator which realized a strong electromagnetic coupling in a closed-loop tubular structure (hula-hoop shape) for easy and steady long-term driving as well as larger electric output. The performance and usability of the developed human-powered generator is verified through experimental comparison with a commercial one. Additionally, human workload which is a key element of a human-powered generator but not often considered elsewhere, is estimated based on metabolic energy expenditure measured respiratory gas analyzer. Further study will focus on output and portability enhancement, which can contribute to the continuous power supply of mobile equipments.

In the late 16th century, the Theatrum Anatomicum or anatomical theatre opened in Leiden in the Netherlands. The theatre was open to a fee-paying audience of students, surgeons, and the public and soon settled down as one of the highbrow cultural activities in the city. This trend soon spread into Amsterdam, and Nicholaes Tulp appearing in Rembrandt van Rijn's was at the center of it. Human anatomy was not just an eyesore but started to get accepted as a cultural event for the civilized citizens of the time. It was with this backdrop that Rembrandt got inspired by this interesting scene of Tulp dissecting human body. Rembrandt well understood the changes of the time and captured them on canvas to attempt convergence between science and art.

In this paper, we propose a parametric model for analyzing the motion information obtained from the acceleration sensors to measure the activity of the human body. The motion of the upper body and the lower body does not occur at the same time, and the motion analysis method using a single motion sensor involves a lot of errors. In this study, the 3-axis accelerometer is attached to the arms and legs, the body's activity data are measured, the momentum of the arms and legs are calculated for each channel, and the linear predictive coefficient is obtained for each channel. The periodicity of the upper body and the lower body is determined by analyzing the correlation between the channels. The linear predictive coefficient and the periodic value are used as data to measure the type of exercise and the amount of exercise. In the proposed method, we measured four types of movements such as walking, stair climbing, slow hill climbing, and fast hill descending. In order to verify the usefulness of the parameters, the recognition results are presented using the linear predictive coefficient and the periodic value for each motion as the neural network input.

This study was to analyze the effects of sudden rise in cortisol and human symptoms in the situation of rescue at river, The experimental results are as follows. The subjects were A, B, C, and the values of cortisol elevation before and after diving were 6.30ug/dl, 6.50ug/dl, and 6.57ug/dl, respectively. However, in the subject D, the elevation of cortisol before and after diving was significantly elevated to 11.00ug/dl. The reason for this is thought to be the depletion of physical strength through weighty due to the inferiority of the underwater view and tense during the sudden rise. The subjects E showed significantly lower cortisol elevation before and after diving, as 4.28ug/dl, because the age of E was the youngest of the subjects and the anxiety was low due to abundant experience of deep sea diving. Fatigue is 7 to 8, anxiety is 7 to 9, Both showed high values. Psychological strain increased fatigue in underwater search, and poor visual field seemed to increase anxiety. The research results will be provided as empirical data on the safe underwater search activities of rescuers.

The purpose of this study is to utilize emotional movement and developmental process in literary therapy. So, I tried to reveal the process of the emotional channel that works in the human body when we deal with literary works. As a result, the emotions confirmed that the emotional codes in the human body were pulled from each other and gathered to the positions of amino acids when the shears were spoken. However, it was judged emotionally to act as a catalyst for the synthesis of amino acids. Of course, this is a humanistic and convergent argument, not a medical proof. However, if these studies continue, it will contribute to making people think more healthily.
