This study was undertaken to assess the lateral ventricle, which was some portion of brain and related to congenital anomalies, from 1, 2, 4, and 8 months of age in healthy micropigs. They were induced general anesthesia and performed magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) with a 0.3 Tesla magnet. Each age group was evaluated by three subjects such as lateral ventricular volume, ventricular volume ratio and asymmetry. T1 weighted transverse images were acquired for calculation of lateral ventricular and corresponding brain parenchyma areas. The ratio of bilateral ventricle areas used to analyze the asymmetry. The mean ventricular volumes of each month were $676.74{\pm}25.58mm^3$ (1 month-old), $630.64{\pm}143.84mm^3$ (2 month-old), $992.12{\pm}106.03mm^3$ (4 month-old) and $1172.62{\pm}237.57mm^3$ (8 month-old), respectively. The ventricular volume ratio was the smallest at 2 month-old and re-increased from that age. The ratio was significantly different between 2 month-old and other age groups (p < 0.05). The value of bilateral area ratio showed within 1.5 in all experimental animals. Consequently the lateral ventricle showed a positive correlation with aging and symmetric shapes in both sides. The developmental pattern of the lateral ventricle provides basic data in micropigs as an experimental animal model for physiological and neurosurgical approach.

Purpose: Gait is the most basic element when evaluating the quality of life with activities of daily living under ordinary life circumstances. Symmetrical use of the lower extremities requires complicated coordination of all limbs. Thus, this study examined asymmetry of muscle activity quadriceps femoris and tibialis anterior as a baseline for training during over-ground walking and stair walking of stroke patients. Methods: Subjects were 14 stroke patients included as one experimental group. Gait speed used in this study was determined by the subject. Low extremity paretic and non-paretic EMG was compared using the surface EMG system. Results: The low extremity EMG difference was statistically significant during over-ground walking and stair walking (p<0.05). The result of low extremity EMG substituted symmetry ratio formula was compared to EMG symmetry ratio in both legs during over-ground walking and stair walking. The average symmetry ratio of quadriceps femoris during over-ground walking was 0.65, and average symmetry ratio of quadriceps femoris during stair walking was 0.47, with significant difference (p<0.05). Conclusion: EMG data was higher in stair walking than over-ground walking. However, in the comparison of symmetry ratio, asymmetric EMG of quadriceps femoris was significantly increased during stair walking. These findings suggested that application of stair walking for strengthening of both legs can be positive, but the key factor is maintaining asymmetrical posture of both legs. Therefore, physical therapists should make an effort to reduce asymmetry of quadriceps femoris power during stair walking by stroke patients.

The aim of this study was to determine the effect of two lighting programs (continuous lighting (CL) 24L:0D and intermittent lighting (IL) 1L:3D) on the broiler performance, carcass traits, incidence of tibial dyschondroplasia (TD), relative asymmetry (RA), duration of induced tonic immobility (TI), heterophils-lymphocytes ratio (H/L), serum glucose, cholesterol and triglyceride levels. The chicks were randomly divided into 2 treatment groups consisting of 100 chicks per treatment, continuous lighting (CL) 24L:0D or intermittent lighting (IL) 1L:3D. Each treatment consists of 5 replicates of 20 chicks. The experimental period was 6 weeks. Use of IL decreased feed to gain ratio, improved immune response and reduced fearful. Body weight, carcass traits, TD and stress parameters (organ weights, RA, H/L, glucose, cholesterol and triglyceride levels) were not significant in different lighting groups. As a result IL was beneficial for producers and chickens than CL.

The purpose of this study was to investigate the influence of the static pelvic inclination and declination in the static standing position on weight bearing rate and gait elements. Fourteen healthy adults in their twenties were participated. Two groups of healthy adults were allocated in this study: above and below the average of pelvic tilt. The correlation between the pelvic inclination, weight bearing rate and gait elements were measured. There was a statistical correlation between the pelvic tilt and step. Also, there was a statistical difference when we compared anterior declination with swing period and posterior declination with step. There was an asymmetric correlation between pelvic tilt and step. However, there was no statistical difference between the groups above and below the average of pelvic tilt. This result indicates that dipper pelvic inclination doesn't affect the asymmetry of step.

Drawability and other mechanical properties of sheet metals are strongly dependent on their crystallographic orientations. In this paper the formability of the AA 5052 Al alloy sheets was investigated after asymmetric rolling and subsequent heat treatment. In most cases, after asymmetric rolling specimens showed a fine grain size and subsequent heat treated specimens showed that the ND // <111> texture component were observed. The anisotropy of formability is often described by the plastic strain ratios (r-value) as a function of the angle to the rolling direction in sheet metal. For a good formability, a high r-value is required in sheet metals. In the asymmetry rolled and subsequent heat treated Al alloy sheet, the variation of the plastic strain ratios have been investigated in this study, The plastic strain ratios of the asymmetry rolled and subsequent heat treated AA 5052 Al alloy sheets were higher than those of the original Al sheets. These could be related to the formation of ND // <111> texture components through asymmetric rolling in Al sheet.

Switched reluctance motors have the advantage a high torque/weight ratio, as the large reluctance torque is made by salient poles of both stator and rotor, and a high reliability. On the other hand, the switched reluctance motors have the disadvantage of a large ripple torque which is made by salient poles. So the application for the industrial fields have been limited to special cases. This paper describes the design of a 12/8 switched reluctance motor using a enemy layer method of the asymmetry rotor. The design is focussed to reduce the torque ripple and radial force in the demanded value. The three dimension finite element analysis method(3D-FEM) was used for decides a enemy layer angle of the asymmetry rotor. This paper presents modifications of the rotor pole shape which reduces the torque ripple.

안면비대칭의 원인은 다양하며, 비대칭적 성장은 상악골과 하악골의 길이나 각도로 평가되어지곤 한다. 하지만 하악 과두의 비대칭적인 위치나 형태 또한 비대칭의 표현에 영향을 줄 것으로 생각된다. 따라서 본 연구는 하악 과두가 안면비대칭의 표현형인 이부 편위에 영향을 주는지에 대해 알아보고자 하였다. 50명의 골격성 III급 부정교합자 중 4 mm 이상의 menton point deviation을 보이는 비대칭군 30명, 4 mm 이하의 menton point deviation을 보이며 뚜렷한 안면비대칭이 없는 20명을 대칭군으로 하여, 두개저에 대한 좌우 하악 과두의 근원심적, 전후방적 위치를 평가하고, axial 평면에서 장축을 설정해 하악 과두의 최대 크기와 coronal plane에 대한 각도를 평가하였으며, sigmoid notch 상방 하악 과두의 길이와 부피를 측정하였다. 대칭군은 좌우 하악 과두의 위치, 각도, 크기, 길이, 부피에 있어 통계적인 차이가 없었다. 비대칭군은 이부 편위측과 비편위측으로 나누어볼 때, 이부 편위에 따른 좌우 하악 과두의 위치와 angulation 에서 통계적 차이는 없었으나, 하악 과두의 크기, 길이 및 부피에서는 비편위측 값이 컸고, 이부 편위량이 클수록 좌우 크기, 길이의 차이 및 편위측에 대한 비편위측 하악 과두의 부피비가 컸다. 또한 편위측에 대한 비편위측 하악 과두의 부피비가 이부 편위의 정도를 가장 잘 설명해주는 특성이었다. 이상의 결과를 통해 하악 과두의 비대칭이 안면비대칭의 발현에 영향을 주며, 비편위측 하악 과두가 편위측에 비해 크고 길다는 것을 알 수 있었다.

본 연구는 국내 상장시장 간 원가의 비대칭성의 차이가 있는지, 상장기업의 기업 규모에 따라 원가의 비대칭성이 차이가 있는지 검증하였다. 기존의 연구에서는 상장기업만을 대상으로 한 원가의 비대칭성은 살펴보았지만, 상장기업 간의 규모의 차이는 살펴보지 않았다. 그러나 다수의 연구에 따르면 상장시장 간 또는 상장기업이라 할지라도 기업의 특성이나 기업고유의 위험(firm risk)이 서로 다르기 때문에 이와 같은 영향이 기업 내부 자원배분 의사결정에 미치는 영향에 차이가 있을 것이라고 보고 분석을 실시하였다. 이를 위해 2011년부터 2019년까지 유가증권시장과 코스닥시장을 대상으로 Anderson et al.(2003)의 원가행태 모형을 이용하여 분석한 결과, 유가증권시장과 코스닥시장의 원가행태는 차이가 있는 것으로 나타났다. 전반적으로 선행연구와 마찬가지로 원가의 하방경직성이 보고되었으나 유가증권시장의 경우 원가의 하방경직성이 완화됨을 확인할 수 있었다. 기업규모가 클수록 매출액이 감소할 때 유휴자원의 처분의사결정이 더 뚜렷한 것으로 나타났다. 추가적으로 외국인투자자 지분율이 높은 경우, 유가증권시장일수록, 기업규모가 클수록 원가의 하방경직성의 완화는 더 크게 나타남을 관찰할 수 있었다. 본 연구는 원가의 비대칭성에 관한 연구를 확장하고 상장시장 간, 기업규모 간의 차이가 존재함을 밝힌 연구로써 선행 연구와의 차별성을 갖는다.

The physical and mechanical properties of the sheets metals are closely related to the presence of preferred crystallographic orientations which were produced by the manufacturing process. To obtain the aluminum alloys sheets with good Al sheet formability, the plastic strain ratio (or r-value) of AA1050 Al sheets after asymmetric rolling and subsequent heat treatment was studied. The AA1050 aluminum alloy sheets after asymmetric rolling with high reduction ratio and following heat treatment had the higher plastic strain ratio.
