  • Body ownership illusion (BOI), which means 'the illusion that a non-bodily object feels like my body', has been actively studied since the Rubber-hand Illusion showed that a person can feel a rubber hand like one's own hand. It has been proven that BOI can be elicited for virtual bodies in virtual reality. Although many studies have been examined the effect of visuomotor (VM) and visuotactile (VT) stimuli, which are mainly used for the elicitation of BOI, there were very limited studies that delivered both stimuli to the whole body at the same time. In this paper, we investigated how each stimulus affects BOI when delivering VM and VT stimulisimultaneously to the virtual avatar, and examined user experience that appears as presence, emotion, and virtual motion sickness. The results showed that BOI was high when VM is synchronous, but there was no significant difference according to VT levels. In the case of presence, it was confirmed that VT affects only when VM is synchronous, and in the case of emotion, both VM and VT affect valence, and in the case of virtual motion sickness, a statistical difference is not found.These results suggest that overall synchrony of VM is important factor in BOI with virtual avatars, but that the matching VT affects subjective experience such as presence when VM is synchronous.

  • Purpose: The study was conducted to describe body shapes of school age children using the degree of obesity index (DOI) and body mass index obesity index classified by the Ministry of Education, Science and Technology (M-BOI) and Seoul Metropolitan Office of Education (S-BOI). Methods: In this cross sectional descriptive study health screening data for school children collected in 2007 was used. Results: Data were analyzed for 2,193 4th-6th grade boys (52%) and girls who attended 4 schools in rural areas. DOI determined that only 44.3% of students had average weight. This proportion was much lower than the results of other methods (74.3-77.6%). All three methods defined girls (51.3-61.8%) as skinnier than boys. Skinny and average body shaped children classified by DOI and obese children classified by S-BOI were heavier and taller and presented higher degrees of obesity (DO) and BMI scores than by other methods. M-BOI and S-BOI presented statistically significant positive correlations with weight, height, DO and BMI, while DOI was not correlated with height. Conclusion: BMI based body shape classifications provide a more rigorous classification of body shape which are favorable for school health professionals with limited resources and policy makers for internationally comparable references.

  • The conditions for callus formation and plant regeneration were confirmed in birdsfoot trefoil (Lotus corniculatus L.). Among SH (Schenk and Hildebrandt), MS (Murashige and Skoog) and N6 medium (Chu), SH medium was highest degree of efficiencies respectively in callus formation and plant regeneration. In this study, we determined volume of hormones and other compounds appended in media. For callus formation, only $3mg/{\ell}$ of 2,4-D (2,4-dichlorophenoxy acetic acid) was appended in their media. For plant regeneration, we used BOi2Y medium (Bingham et al.). We obtained birdsfoot trefoil plants from callus by regeneration, about sixty days later transfer calli to regeneration media.

  • Products and/or services should be objectively verified in terms of the technological and use-conditional considerations before entering a market. Every organization or company tries to find the better procedure and method for checking the core needs of customers based on their experience in the market and looks for continuous ways to evaluate the power of products and services(PoP). They also prefer the overall evaluation of indices that could reflect various customer needs, rather than a separate evaluation index for each characteristic of the product or service. S. Ko (2008) proposes a Multi-characteristics Sigma Level(MSL) that can simultaneously evaluate many characteristics of a product or service. In this research, using MSL and a new Blue Ocean Index(BOI), an application of NPS, mobile phone field test is considered from a practical and statistical point of view.

  • A study of occlusal relationship and TMJ dysfunction, parafunctional relationship and TMJ dysfunction using PRI was investigated in 23 dental students without history of being treated, ranging from 19 to 24 years old. The author used Denar Pantronic and D5-A articulator to study above. The obtained results were as follows : 1. Distribution of PRI in experimental subjects was as follows. None 13%, Slight 43%, Moderate 40%, Severe 4% Prevalance of TMJ Dysfunction was 87% 2. PRI scores of occlusal group Aoi (less than 5 in Helkimo occlusion/articulation index) was $11.72\pm2.32$ , those of occlusal group Boi (more than 5 in Helkimo occlusion/articulation index) 23.0 $\pm$ 8.06. There was a significant difference between group Aoi and group Boi(P<0.01) 3. PRI scores of occlusal group Ald (no eccentric interference, less than 0.5mm in lateral shift of slide in centric) was 12.0 $\pm$ 2.49, those of occlusal group Bld(no eccentric interference, less than 0.5mm in lateral shift of slide in centric) 24.5$\pm$5.33 There was a significant difference between group Ald and group Bld(P<0.05) 4. Prevalance of parafunction subjects(%) was 65.2%. 5. PRI scores of parafunction group was 21.6 $\pm$ 9.48, those of nonparafunctional group 18.7 $\pm$ 9.06. There was not significant difference between parafunctional group and nonparafunctional group(P>0.1)

  • The aim of this paper is to suggest a design method of the optimal model following control system using genetic algorithm (GA). This control system is designed by applying GA with reference model to the optimal determination of weighting matrices Q, R that are given by LQ regulator problem. The method to do this is that all the diagonal elements of weighting matrices are optimized simultaneously by GA, in the search domain selected adequately. And we design the model following control system to boi1er-turbine equipment by the proposed method. The model following control system designed by this method has the better command tracking performance than that of the control system designed by the trial-and-error method. The effectiveness of this control system is verified by computer simulation.

  • This study was conducted to obtain the transformed birdsfoot trefoil (Lotus corniculatus L.) plants with BcHSP17.6 gene using Agrobacterium turnefaciens LBA4404 and we confirmed transformed gene from the regenerated birdsfoot trefoil plants. The expression vector, pBKH4 vector, harboring BcHSP17.6 gene was used for production of transgenic birdsfoot trefoil plants. The callus of birdsfoot trefoil was cocultivated with Agrobacteriurn turnefaciens and transformed calli were selected on kanamycin-containing SH-kc medium to regenerate into plants. The transformed birdsfoot trefoil plants were produced 4 momths after cultivation on BOi2Y medium. The transgenic birdsfoot trefoil plants were analyzed by isolation of genomic DNA and genomic Southern hybridization using a -32P labelled BcHSPl7.6 fragments. (Key words : Birdsfoot trefoil, Transgenic plant. BcHSP17.6 gene, Callus induction, Plant regeneration)

  • Phosphatase activity was measured with other environmental factors in Cheonho reservoir in 1994. It ranged form 95 to 1,685 nM/1/h and was correlated significantly with chlorophyll-a. Such a close relation well matched the fact that over 90% of phosphatase activity was detected in > 3 $\mu\textrm{m}$ fraction. The phosphatase activity also correlated negatively with dissolved inorganic phosphate concentration, which implies derepression of phosphatase production by phosphate limitation. Significant correlation was analyzed between phosphatase activity and BOD, which also appeared to be closely correlated with chlorophyll-a. A great percentage of organic materials seems to be generated autochthonously by algae and extracellular enzyme even though allochthonous influence was thought to be stronger in Cheonho reservoir.

  • To develop transgenic birdsfoot trefoil (Lotus corniculatus L.) plants tolerant to environmental stress, Arabidopsis NDPK gene (AtNDPK) was introduced into birdsfoot trefoil plants using Agrobacterium-mediated transformation and expressed powerfully under the control of the SWPA2 promoter. The expression vector, pCAMBIA2300 was used for introduction of AtNDPK gene into birdsfoot trefoil plants. The transformed calli were selected on kanamycin containing medium and then regenerated. The transformed birdsfoot trefoil plants were cultivated fur 4 months on BOi2Y medium. Genomic DNA PCR and Southern blot analysis confirmed the incorporation of AtNDPK into the birdsfoot trefoil genome.
