A relation between the movement range of arms and arising moment has been studied to find out efficient movement range to minimize impact concerning arm landing in sports aerobics. Four male athletes who won top three in national-level sports aerobics competition were chosen for the experiment. They were allowed to jump in between two force platform so that the right hand and the right leg could land onto the front and rear force platform, respectively. The sampling frequency was 200 Hz. The main conclusions based on the analysis of the angle and joint moment parameters of wrist, elbow, and shoulder are as follows: 1. The wrist moment was small when its angle was small, indicating that the dorsi-flexion of the wrist joint offered a positive influence to reduce wrist moment. 2. The elbow angle increased as wrist angle decreased and vice versa. This means that the movement range of the wrist joint affects that of the elbow joint. The darsi-flexion of the wrist is the position to absorb the impact of the elbow effectively rather than to absorb the impact of the wrist itself. The impact is absorbed by the flexion of wrist joint rather than the wrist. 3. The degree of moment transfer of the shoulder joint, having absorbed the impact from the elbow and elbow joint, became dependent on the efficiency of the fore-joints impact absorption.

Human like robot arm posture for grasping by considering the shape of the target object is quite a challenge in the field of robotics. In this paper, an optimized grasp posture with respect to the shape of the object considering the wrist joint angle and elbow elevation angle, in order to verify that the grasp posture is human like has been proposed. Given a target object, the candidates for grasp are computed by the method described in this paper. For each candidate, the closed loop inverse kinematics has been solved for the corresponding hand position and orientation. From the obtained joint angles through inverse kinematics, the elbow elevation angle has been computed and compared with the elbow elevation angle obtained through human movement data by the characteristic equation. After considering all the candidates, the hand position and orientation with minimum wrist joint and difference in elbow elevation angles has been utilized as the optimized grasp posture. Simulation results are presented.

PURPOSE: This study researched the effects of the changes of elbow joint angle and of arm position in PNF pattern on muscle activation of the contralateral shoulder muscles while performing PNF pattern exercise. METHODS: The research subjects were 16 male physical therapists who had no neuromuscular or neurological disorders. To measure the muscle activation of the contralateral shoulder muscles, EMG electrodes were attached to the muscle valley of the middle and posterior areas of the deltoid and triceps muscles of the arm. Muscle activation while performing the ulnar thrust PNF pattern exercise was measured with the elbow joint positioned at angles of $30^{\circ}$, $45^{\circ}$, and $60^{\circ}$. Resistance points were at the initial, middle, and end ranges of PNF pattern exercise. RESULTS: Muscle activation of the middle and posterior portions of the deltoid muscle increased significantly according to the changes of elbow joint angle. In each resistance point the middle range was significantly higher than at other points. A significant difference on muscle activation was demonstrated throughout each range depending on the type of muscle. Muscle activation of the middle and posterior portions of the deltoid muscle was higher than muscle activation of the triceps. CONCLUSION: The results of this study demonstrate that the PNF pattern exercising method used in this study is a selective exercising method focusing on the deltoid muscle over the triceps muscle. In order to increase the muscle strength to the maximum level, it is necessary to provide the maximum level of resistance in the middle range of the elbow joint.

This paper measured the range of arm joint motion for Korean 54 males in twenties. The range of the arm joint motion of the subjects was measured directly using Goniometer and protractor. The number of the static and the dynamic anthropometric variables are seven and thirteen, respectively. The anthropometric data are analyzed by basic statistical analysis (four group), correlation analysis and regression analysis using commercial SAS program. The results of analysis are compared with American students anthropometric data by Laubach(1978). Thin subjects have larger movement angle as wrist flexion, wrist abduction, elbow flexion, and elbow wupination and have smaller as wrist adduction and shoulder flexion. Fat subjects have larger movement angle as shoulder flexion and are smaller wrist abduction, elbow flexion, pronation, shoulder extension, shoulder adduction, shoulder abduction, and shoulder medial rotation Korean are more flexible than American in wrist and ranges of elbow flexion and elbow rotation. The shoulder movement is similar to that of American, but shoulder flexion is less flexible.

Purpose: This study was conducted to investigate the functional differences of the two heads of the biceps brachii by measuring the functions in supination according to pronation by the angle of the flexion of the elbow joint, except for the activities of the elbow flexors. Methods: This study was conducted with 25 healthy men in their 20s. At a glenohumeral-joint 0˚ flexion posture, angles of flexion of the elbow joint of 0˚, 30˚, 60˚, 90˚, and 120˚ were randomly provided, and they were asked to perform supination and pronation with an elastic band. Using an eight-channel surface electromyogram, the muscle activities of the long and short heads of the biceps brachii were measured. The activities of the short and long heads according to the angle were analyzed using a one-way ANOVA, and as a post-test, LSD was employed. Results: The analysis of the impact of the resistance of the elastic band in supination on the differences in the muscle activities in the short and long heads suggests there was a significant difference between 0˚ and 30˚ (p < 0.05). Conclusion: In supination according to forearm pronation, the long head had greater action in the early flexion posture of the elbow joint, and it is judged that the ratio of the flexion of the elbow joint according to the actions of the biceps brachii was considered small.

팔꿉관절 측방향 일반촬영 검사 시 위팔뼈 양측 위관절융기의 정확한 겹침과 팔꿉관절의 적절한 분리는 매우 중요하다. 그러나 팔꿉관절의 복잡한 해부학적인 구조로 인해서 최적의 영상을 획득하기 어려워 반복적인 검사가 시행되고 있다. 따라서 본 연구는 팔꿉관절 측방향 일반촬영 검사 시 정확한 영상을 획득할 수 있는 환자의 각도를 조사하고자 하였다. 연구 대상은 20명의 환자로 정해진 연구 절차에 따라 시행되었다. 먼저 아래팔과 테이블 사이의 0°의 각도에서 X선을 수직 입사하여 영상을 획득하였다(대조군). 그 후, 팔꿉관절의 측방향 영상이 부적절하다고 판단될 경우 5° 및 10°의 기울기를 가진 스티로폼 지지대를 이용하여 아래팔의 각도를 조정하여 영상을 획득하였다(실험군). 평가 방법으로는 두 명의 평가자가 리커트 5점 척도를 통해 영상을 평가했고, 평가에 대한 신뢰성은 크론바흐 알파 값을 제시하였다. 결과적으로 처음 검사(대조군)에서 양측 위관절융기의 겹침과 팔꿉관절의 분리가 적절하지 않은 환자들은 아래팔뼈와 테이블 사이에 10° 각도를 설정하였을 때 가장 좋은 영상을 획득할 수 있었다. 이에 대한 정성적 평가 점수는 0°에서 1.6±0.8점, 5°에서 2.7 ± 0.8점, 10°에서 4.4 ± 1.3점이었고, 0°, 5°, 10° 각도에 대한 신뢰도 분석 결과 크론바흐 알파 값은 각각 0.867, 0.697 및 0.922였다. 결론적으로 기존의 검사 자세와 X선 입사 방식을 사용하여 정확한 영상을 얻을 수 없는 경우에는 아래팔과 테이블 사이의 각도를 10°로 설정한 후 우선적으로 영상을 획득하고 차츰 각도를 줄여가면서 영상을 획득한다면 반복 검사의 횟수를 줄이면서 최적의 영상을 얻을 수 있을 것으로 판단된다.
