The purpose of the study was to identify the effects of a 12-week low-intensity exercise program on muscle strength, flexibility, balance, and cognitive characteristics related to the performance of activity of daily living(ADL). A total of 16 patients who were admitted to the medical unit of a general hospital in ChoongChung province were recruited, eight for the exercise group and eight for the comparison group. Four levels of low-intensity exercise from 'ROM on bed' to 'exercise while walking' were then applied to the exercise group according to their physical condition. During hospitalization, patients in the exercise group performed each level of the prescribed exercise with the researchers until they felt comfortable doing it independently. The researchers also visited the patients' homes after discharge to make sure they could perform the exercise with Theraband in their living environment. The exercise group was contacted by phone once a week to assess the frequency and intensity in which they performed the exercise as well as their physical condition. The subjects in the comparison group participated in measurements for the study without performing the exercise and were contacted by phone after discharge, in a matched time frame with the exercise group, to assess physical condition. Muscle strength, flexibility, balance, cognitive characteristics, and performance of ADL for the two groups were compared at the pretest and the posttest after the low-intensity exercise program by utilizing SPSSWIN and the results are as follows : 1) At the postest, measurements of muscle strengths showed that the strength of the dorsal flexor in the exercise group was significantly higher than in the comparison group. 2) Objective balance for the exercise group was significantly better than for the comparison group as measured by 'standing on one foot' and Tinetti gait and balance control. 3) The exercise group showed significantly higher task self-efficacy than the comparison group. 4) Perceived exertion for ADL for the exercise group was significantly lower than for the comparison group. 5) Improvement of performance of ADL without assistance was significantly higher for the exercise group than the comparison group. The findings suggest that a low-intensity exercise program would be useful for the elderly who show decline in their physical functioning due to hospitalization by partly improving physical strength, task self-efficacy, and performance of ADL. Directions for further research on issues of motivating people to exercise as well as of standardizing various types of exercise were discussed.

광중합형 복합레진은 일부 성분들이 강한 광학-전자기선에 노출됨으로써 경화된다. 최초의 제품들은 자외선을 이용하여 중합되었다. 초기의 이러한 제품들은 작업시간의 조절가능 기포 형성 감소, 색 안정성 향상으로 각광받았지만, 자외선의 위해 성과 얕은 중합깊이를 극복하지 못해 결국 가시광선 중합형으로 대체되었다. 가시광선 중합형 복합레진의 중합완성도는 단량체(monomer)에서 복합체(polymer)로의 변환율에 의해 결정된다. 결국 수복물의 성공여부는 조사된 가시광선의 중합능력과 밀접한 연관성을 갖는다. 이번 조사의 목적은 현재 임상(치과 병 의원)에서 사용되고 있는 광중합기의 광도를 여러 연구를 통하여 그 신뢰성이 입증된 digital radiometer를 이용해 평가하고, 3가지 기본부품의 결함을 검증해서 임상가들에게 유익한 정보를 주기 위함이다. 조사 결과, 조사 대상 광중합기 중 17.8%가 적절한 중합에 부적절한 상태에 있으며, 46.6%가 광 조사시간을 연장할 필요가 있는 것으로 드러나, 광조사기의 절반 이상이 수복물의 성공적인 중합을 위해서는, 중합시간의 연장을 필요로 하거나, 기계적 결함으로 점검을 필요로 하는 상태에 있었다. 이번 조사로, 현재 치과 병, 의원에서 사용중인 광조사기의 부품성능과 그 관리에 문제가 있음을 알 수 있다. 이러한 결과는, 최근에 이루어진 외국의 조사에서와 유사하였다. 광조사기를 이용한 수복치료의 성공과, 구입당시 수준의 적절한 품질(quality)을 유지하기 위해서는, 광조사기 관리와 부품 교체에 대한 임상가들의 이해가 필요할 것으로 보인다.

본 논문에서는 다차원 인접화소 간 명암차 기반 극좌표의 비선형 양자화 히스토그램을 이용한 서명인식을 제안한다. 다차원 인접화소 간 명암차는 기준화소를 중심으로 횡방향, 종방향, 대각 방향, 역대각 방향 각각의 이웃화소 간 명암차이고, 극좌표는 횡과 종 방향 및 대각과 비대각 방향 각각의 직교좌표로부터 변환된 좌표이며, 비선형 양자화 히스토그램은 반복계산 기법인 Lloyd 알고리즘에 의해 극좌표 값을 비균일 양자화한 히스토그램이다. 여기서 4방향 명암차의 극좌표 히스토그램은 대응하는 화소간의 상관성을 좀 더 많이 고려할 뿐만 아니라 히스토그램의 수를 감소시켜 계산부하를 줄이기 위함이다. 또한 비선형 양자화는 화소간의 명암변화의 속성을 더욱 더 잘 반영할 뿐만 아니라 저차원의 히스토그램 레벨을 얻기 위함이다. 제안된 기법을 256*256 픽셀의 90개(3인*30개) 서명들을 대상으로 city-block거리, Euclidean 거리, 순서값, 그리고 정규상호상관계수 각각의 정합척도에 기반 한 실험결과, 선형 양자화 기반 히스토그램에 비해 우수한 인식성능을 가지며, Euclidean 거리가 가장 우수한 정합척도임을 확인하였다.

Landmarks like high-rise building are one of the important elements for the enhancement of city identity and provides the hierarchy of city streets, playing a central and symbolic role in cities. Research on physical attribute of landmarks, such as height, distance, location and shape, which are suitable for a city scale, can help a city create a distinct image and maintain comprehensible structure. To achieve this purpose, it is necessary to understand the spatial and cognitive characteristics of a landmark for the establishment and management of it. The results of this study can be summarized as follows: 1. The level of representativeness of a landmark increases in proportion to the degree of cognitive intensity on it. The relation between representativeness and cognitive intensity can be explained as the log-function as follows: Log(the number of people who respond "It has representativeness")=$-1.2579+1.5908{\times}$(cognitive intensity); 2. There are a few differences based on the attributes of respondents: while gender has no distinct influence, residential period and age show statistically meaningful influence on cognitive intensity of a vertical landmark Cognitive intensity of an individual landmarks especially, differs according to the class of main users. Because of frequent changes in occupation or employment, respondents consider the distance from a residential area more important than the distance from a working area in evaluating cognitive intensity of landmarks; 3. landmark can be classified into two kinds: a district landmark and an urban landmark A district landmark is closely connected with physical attributes of the landmark itself, such as distance, size and height. An urban landmark is mainly related to cognitive attributes such as the image and identity of a city as a whole. As a result, the landmark analysis data in this research provides spatial order and identity in a city. It is difficult to establish and reinforce the image of a city as a single element ike a landmark. However, withy steady follow-up research, this study could be seen as a systematic and logical model to improve urban landscape and image.

The purposes of this study were to assess energy expenditure of eight walking activities in normal weight and overweight or obese high school students and to evaluate the accuracy of two accelerometers worn on the ankle and waist. Thirty-five (male 17, female 18) healthy high school students participated in this study. They were classified into normal weight (n=21) and overweight or obese (n=14) groups. The subjects completed five treadmill walking activities (TW2.4, TW3.2, TW4.0, TW4.8, TW5.6), followed by three self-selected hallway walking activities (walk as if walking and talking with a friend: HWL, walk as if hurrying across the street at a cross-walk: HWB, walk as fast as you can but do not run: HWF). Energy expenditure and metabolic equivalents (METs) were measured using a portable indirect calorimeter, and predicted energy expenditures and METs were derived from two accelerometers placed on the ankle and waist. Measured energy expenditures per body weight (kg) of eight walking activities were significantly higher in the normal weight group than in the obese group and significantly higher in female than male. The ankle accelerometer overestimated energy expenditures and METs (bias 49.4~105.5%), whereas the waist accelerometer underestimated energy expenditures and METs (bias -30.3~-85.8). Except for HWF (fast) activity, METs of seven activities were moderate intensity based on Compendium METs intensity categories. HWF (fast) activity was vigorous intensity. METs from the ankle accelerometer were vigorous intensity except TW2.4 activity (moderate intensity). METs from the waist accelerometer were low intensity (TW2.4, TW3.2, TW4.0, TW4.8, HWL) and moderate intensity (TW5.6, HWB, HWF). Physical activity guidelines were developed based on measured physical activity level of high school students. Further studies should investigate the effects of body composition in larger subjects.

현재 전세계적으로 널리 사용되고 있는 드보라크 방법에 의한 태풍강도 분석법을 1991년 우리나라에 영향을 준 6개 태풍사례에 대해 실제 적용하여 강도분석을 하였다. 또한 분석된 태풍 강도를 이용하여 태풍의 중심기압과 최대풍속을 산출하는 상관 관계식을 계산하여 제시하였다. ORCHID 태풍에 이 관계식을 실제 적용하여 관측값과 비교하여 그 정확도를 평가하였다. 그 결 과 중심기압(MSLP : Minimum Sea Level Pressure)과 최대풍속(MWS : Maximum Wind Speed)이 관측값보다 약간 낮은 값을 보였지만 전체적인 패턴은 비슷하게 나타났다. 그러나 미국 국립 해양 대기청(NOAA) 및 일본 기상청(NAA)에 의해 작성된 상관 관계표로 산출된 값은 관측 값과는 많은 차이를 보여 주었다. One of the world widely used methods in determining the intensity of a typhoon is Dvorak's technique. By applying the Dvorak's method to the typhoons which affected our country in various degress and extents without regard to their individual severity, we estimated their intensity for six different cases of typhoons. We have derived a regression equation of estimating the central pressures and maximum wind speeds for the six selected typhoons. Their intensity was estimated from the Dvork's method using GMS satellite image data. The derived equation has tested to typhoon ORCHID and the computed values have been compared with the direct observations in its central pressure and maximum wind speed. The computed values in the Dvork's method are smaller in their magnitudes than the observed corresponding values. But their relative magnitudes do not change so much at each different time step. But our results are significantly different from those of NOAA and JMA. The cause of differences are not investigated in depth in this analysis.

For $P_B=50Torr,\;P_T=5401Torr,\;T_S=450^{\circ}C,\;{\Delta}T=20K$, Ar=5, Pr=3.34, Le=0.01, Pe=4.16, Cv=1.05, adiabatic and linear thermal profiles at walls, the intensity of solutal convection (solutal Grashof number $Grs=7.86{\times}10^6$) is greater than that of thermal convection (thermal Grashof number $Grt=4.83{\times}10^5$) by one order of magnitude, which is based on the solutally buoyancy-driven convection due to the disparity in the molecular weights of the component A ($Hg_2Cl_2$) and B (He). With increasing the partial pressure of component B from 20 up to 800 Torr, the rate is decreased exponentially. It is also interesting that as the partial pressure of component B is increased by a factor of 2, the rate is approximately reduced by a half. For systems under consideration, the rate increases linearly and directly with the dimensionless Peclet number which reflects the intensity of condensation and sublimation at the crystal and source region. The convective transport decreases with lower g level and is changed to the diffusive mode at $0.1g_0$. In other words, for regions in which the g level is $0.1g_0$ or less, the diffusion-driven convection results in a parabolic velocity profile and a recirculating cell is not likely to occur. Therefore a gravitational acceleration level of less than $0.1g_0$ can be adequate to ensure purely diffusive transport.

Experimental data are presented which describe the effects of a combustor-level high free-stream turbulence on the near-wall flow structure and heat/mass transfer on the endwall of a linear high-turning turbine rotor cascade. The end wall flow structure is visualized by employing the partial- and total-coverage oil-film technique, and heat/mass transfer rate is measured by the naphthalene sublimation method. A turbulence generator is designed to provide a highly-turbulent flow which has free-stream turbulence intensity and integral length scale of 14.7% and 80mm, respectively, at the cascade entrance. The surface flow visualizations show that the high free-stream turbulence has little effect on the attachment line, but alters the separation line noticeably. Under high free-stream turbulence, the incoming near-wall flow upstream of the adjacent separation lines collides more obliquely with the suction surface. A weaker lift-up force arising from this more oblique collision results in the narrower suction-side corner vortex area in the high turbulence case. The high free-stream turbulence enhances the heat/mass transfer in the central area of the turbine passage, but only a slight augmentation is found in the end wall regions adjacent to the leading and trailing edges. Therefore, the high free-stream turbulence makes the end wall heat load more uniform. It is also observed that the heat/mass transfers along the locus of the pressure-side leg of the leading-edge horseshoe vortex and along the suction-side corner are influenced most strongly by the high free-stream turbulence. In this study, the end wall surface is classified into seven different regions based on the local heat/mass transfer distribution, and the effects of the high free-stream turbulence on the local heat/mass transfer in each region are discussed in detail.
