척추 측만증 교정 시 유합 범위에 따른 수술 후 의 효과를 분석하기 위하여 King-Moe type II 형태의 척추 측만증 환자를 대상으로 이에 대한 수학적 유한 요소 모델을 개발하였다. 유한 요소 모델을 이용하여 척추경 나사못을 이용한 고정 및 강봉 감염술 형태의 수술모사를 수행하였으며, 유합 범위를 각기 달리하여 수술 시뮬레이션 후의 척추계의 변화 즉 Cobb 각도, 첨추체 축회전, 흉추 후만각 그리고 늑골고의 변화를 정량적으로 계산하였다. 해석 결과 강봉 감염술의 경우에서 보다 강봉을 척추경 나사못에 연결시키는 과정에서 훨씬 더 많은 Cobb각도의 변화를 얻을 수 있었다. 강봉 감염술 과정에서는 약간의 Cobb각도 감소를 유발시킬 수 있었으나 오히려 척추체 축회전과 늑골 돌출고의 증가를 나타내었다 아울러 강봉과 척추경 나사못의 체결 과정이 척추 후만각 유지에도 큰 역할을 하고 있음을 알 수 있었다. 유합 범위를 변곡 발생 추체의 위치 보다 한 단계씩 길게(T4-12) 하여 60o의 강봉 감염술을 시행하였을 경우 Cobb 각도를 두 배 감소시킬 수 있었으나 급격한 늑골고와 첨추체 축회전량의 증가가 유발되었다. 해석 결과 유합 범위는 만곡 흠추체에서 변곡이 발생되는 위치 보다 한 레벨씩 작게 선정하는 것이 최적의 유합 범위임을 알 수 있었다.

Background: Individuals with spinal cord injury (SCI) rely on their upper limbs for body-lifting activity (BLA). While studies have examined the electromyography (EMG) and kinematics of the shoulder joints during BLA, no studies have considered foot position during BLA. Objects: This study compared the effects of different foot positions during BLA on the shoulder muscle activities, peak plantar pressure, knee flexion angle, and rating perceived exertion in individuals with SCI. Methods: The study enrolled 13 mens with motor-complete paraplegic SCI, ASIA (American Spinal Injury Association) A or B. All subjects performed BLA with the feet positioned on the wheelchair footrest and on the floor independently. Surface EMG was used to collect data from the latissimus dorsi, pectoralis major, serratus anterior, and triceps brachii. The peak plantar pressure was measured using pedar-X and the knee flexion angle with Image J. Borg's rating perceived exertion scale was used to measure the physical activity intensity level. The paired t-test was used to compare the shoulder muscle activities, peak plantar pressure, knee flexion angle, and rating perceived exertion between the two feet positions during BLA. Results: The activity of the latissimus dorsi, pectoralis major, serratus anterior, and triceps brachii and rating perceived exertion decreased significantly and the peak plantar pressure and knee flexion angle increased significantly when performing BLA with the feet positioned on the wheelchair footrest compared with on the floor (p<.05). Conclusion: These findings suggest that individuals with SCI may perform BLA with the feet positioned on the wheelchair footrest for weight-relief lifting to decrease the shoulder muscle activities and the rating perceived exertion and to increase the peak plantar pressure and the knee flexion angle.

최근 다양한 종류의 가상 현실 기기가 개발되면서 고전적인 사용자 입력 방식 이외에도 사용자의 신체 동작을 인식하여 현실감을 높이려는 기술에 관한 연구가 활발하게 진행되고 있다. 이러한 장치 중의 하나인 립모션 컨트롤러는 사용자의 손동작을 인식하여 가상 현실 환경에서 사용자의 손 모양을 실시간으로 나타낼 수 있다. 하지만 인식한 사용자의 손을 사용하여 가상 현실의 물체를 조작하면 종종 손이 물체를 통과하게 되는데, 이러한 상호작용은 실제 현실과는 거리감이 있다. 본 연구에서는 가상 현실에서 사용자의 손과 물체 간의 상호작용 현실감을 높이기 위한 시각적 피드백 시스템의 구축 방법을 제시한다. 가상의 현실에서 사용자의 손과 가상 물체가 충돌하는지 광선 추적법을 활용하여 정밀하게 검사하고, 충돌하였을 때 부호 거리 장과 역기구학을 통해 물체 내부로 들어간 사용자의 손가락 말단의 위치를 물체 표면 밖으로 이동시켜 사용자의 손을 재구성하는 과정을 통해 시각적 피드백을 준다. 이를 통해 실시간으로 가상 현실에서 현실감 있는 상호작용을 할 수 있다.

Observations of dark matter dominated dwarf and low surface brightness disk galaxies favor density profiles with a flat-density core, while cold dark matter (CDM) N-body simulations form halos with central cusps, instead. This apparent discrepancy has motivated a re-examination of the microscopic nature of the dark matter in order to explain the observed halo profiles, including the suggestion that CDM has a non-gravitational self-interaction. We study the formation and evolution of self-interacting dark matter (SIDM) halos. We find analytical, fully cosmological similarity solutions for their dynamics, which take proper account of the collisional interaction of SIDM particles, based on a fluid approximation derived from the Boltzmann equation. The SIDM particles scatter each other elastically, which results in an effective thermal conductivity that heats the halo core and flattens its density profile. These similarity solutions are relevant to galactic and cluster halo formation in the CDM model. We assume that the local density maximum which serves as the progenitor of the halo has an initial mass profile ${\delta}M / M {\propto} M^{-{\epsilon}$, as in the familiar secondary infall model. If $\epsilon$ = 1/6, SIDM halos will evolve self-similarly, with a cold, supersonic infall which is terminated by a strong accretion shock. Different solutions arise for different values of the dimensionless collisionality parameter, $Q {\equiv}{\sigma}p_br_s$, where $\sigma$ is the SIDM particle scattering cross section per unit mass, $p_b$ is the cosmic mean density, and $r_s$ is the shock radius. For all these solutions, a flat-density, isothermal core is present which grows in size as a fixed fraction of $r_s$. We find two different regimes for these solutions: 1) for $Q < Q_{th}({\simeq} 7.35{\times} 10^{-4}$), the core density decreases and core size increases as Q increases; 2) for $Q > Q_{th}$, the core density increases and core size decreases as Q increases. Our similarity solutions are in good agreement with previous results of N-body simulation of SIDM halos, which correspond to the low-Q regime, for which SIDM halo profiles match the observed galactic rotation curves if $Q {\~} [8.4 {\times}10^{-4} - 4.9 {\times} 10^{-2}]Q_{th}$, or ${\sigma}{\~} [0.56 - 5.6] cm^2g{-1}$. These similarity solutions also show that, as $Q {\to}{\infty}$, the central density acquires a singular profile, in agreement with some earlier simulation results which approximated the effects of SIDM collisionality by considering an ordinary fluid without conductivity, i.e. the limit of mean free path ${\lambda}_{mfp}{\to} 0$. The intermediate regime where $Q {\~} [18.6 - 231]Q_{th}$ or ${\sigma}{\~} [1.2{\times}10^4 - 2.7{\times}10^4] cm^2g{-1}$, for which we find flat-density cores comparable to those of the low-Q solutions preferred to make SIDM halos match halo observations, has not previously been identified. Further study of this regime is warranted.

Occupant protection performance in frontal crashes has been developed and assessed for mainly front seat occupants over many years, and in recent years protection of rear seat occupants has also been extensively discussed. Unlike the front seats, the rear seats are often occupied by children seated in rear-facing or forward - facing child restraint systems, or booster seats. In the ENCAP, child occupant protection assessments using 18-month-old(P1.5) and 3-year-old(P3) test dummies in the rear seat have already been changed to new type of 18-month-old (Q1.5)and 3-year-old(Q3) test dummies. In addition, ENCAP are scheduled with the development and introduction of test dummies of 6-year-old (Q6) and 10.5-year-old children(Q10) starting 2016. In KNCAP, Q6 and Q10 child dummies will be introduced in 2017 as well. Automobile manufacturers need to develop safety performance for new child dummies closely. In this paper, we focused on Q6 and Q10 child dummies sitting in child restraint system. Offset frontal crash tests were conducted using two types of test dummies, Q6 and Q10 child dummies, positioned in the rear seat. Q6 and Q10 were used to compare dummy kinematics in rear seating positions between Q6 behind the driver's seat and Q10 behind the front passenger's seat. The full vehicle sled test results of both dummies were conducted with different restraint systems. It showed that several injury and image data was collected as the result of the full vehicle sled test. Based on the results of these investigations, this paper describes which factor is most important and combination is the best performance when evaluating rear seat occupant protection for Q6 and Q10 child dummies.

We search for misclassified type 1 AGNs among type 2 AGNs identified with emission line flux ratios, and investigate the properties of the sample. Using 4 113 local type 2 AGNs at 0.02 < z < 0.05 selected from Sloan Digital Sky Survey Data Release 7, we detected a broad component of the $H{\alpha}$ line with a Full-Width at Half-Maximum (FWHM) ranging from 1 700 to $19090km\;s^{-1}$ for 142 objects, based on the spectral decomposition and visual inspection. The fraction of the misclassified type 1 AGNs among type 2 AGN sample is ~3.5%, implying that a large number of missing type 1 AGN population may exist. The misclassified type 1 AGNs have relatively low luminosity with a mean broad $H{\alpha}$ luminosity, log $L_{H\alpha}=40.50{\pm}0.35\;erg\;s^{-1}$, while black hole mass of the sample is comparable to that of the local black hole population, with a mean black hole mass, log $M_{BH}=6.94{\pm}0.51\;M_{\odot}$. The mean Eddington ratio of the sample is log $L_{bol}/L_{Edd}=-2.00{\pm}0.40$, indicating that black hole activity is relatively weak, hence, AGN continuum is too weak to change the host galaxy color. We find that the O III lines show significant velocity offsets, presumably due to outflows in the narrow-line region, while the velocity offset of the narrow component of the $H{\alpha}$ line is not prominent, consistent with the ionized gas kinematics of general type 1 AGN population.

슬개골 덜컹 증후군은 인공 관절 전치환술 후 슬개골 버튼 근위부에 섬유성 결절이 형성되어 통증, 염발음, 잠김 현상등의 증상이 발생하는 슬개 대퇴 합병증이다. 주로 후방 안정형 삽입물을 사용한 후에 발생하며, 굴곡시 섬유성 결절이 과간 절흔에 포착되었다가 신전시 이탈하면서 증상을 유발한다. 대퇴 삽입물의 구조적 특징이 가장 큰 원인으로 추정되고 초기의 후방 안정형 삽입물에서 발생 빈도가 높았다. 이후 새로운 형태의 삽입물에서는 구조가 개선되어 발생 빈도가 감소하였으나 최근까지도 슬개골 덜컹 증후군의 발생이 보고되고 있다. 진단은 주로 증상에 의해 이루어지며, 영상의학적 검사도 진단에 도움이 된다. 특히, 초음파 검사는 대퇴 사두건의 섬유성 결절을 쉽고 간편하게 발견할 수 있다. 저자들은 초음파를 이용하여 진단된 슬개골 덜컹 증후군 1례를 경험하여 보고하고자 한다.

본 연구의 목적은 파킨슨병 환자의 청각 신호에 따른 보행 시, 상지 스윙의 비대칭과 진폭에 미치는 영향을 알아보기 위함이다. 연구의 대상자는 초기 파킨슨병으로 진단받은 14명의 환자로, 청각 신호(빠른 속도, 일반적인 속도, 느린 속도)를 무작위 순서로 제공하여 보행을 실시하였다. 청각 신호 속도는 전자 메트로놈을 이용하여 대상자의 자연스러운 보행 속도보다 ${\pm}20%$ 속도를 적용하였다. 각각의 속도에 따른 청각 신호를 적용한 보행을 실시하는 동안, 동작분석기를 사용하여 보행 시 상지 스윙의 운동학적 변수를 비교 분석하였다. 정상 속도의 보행 시 파킨슨병 환자의 양측 상지 스윙 진폭의 비교에서는 더 많은 영향을 받은 쪽(MAS)의 상지 스윙 진폭에서 유의한 감소가 나타났다(p<.05). 청각 신호 속도에 따른 보행 시의 비교에서는 빠른 속도의 청각 신호를 적용한 보행 시 상지 스윙의 유의한 증가가 나타났다(p<.05). 본 연구의 결과를 통해 파킨슨 환자의 보행 시 양측 상지 스윙의 비대칭을 확인할 수 있었으며 또한 보행 시 빠른 청각 신호를 적용하는 경우, 파킨슨병 환자의 상지 스윙을 증가시켜 자연스러운 보행양상을 유도할 수 있으므로 중재 시 필요에 따라 적절한 속도의 청각 신호를 적용하여 보행훈련에 적용할 수 있을 것으로 생각된다.

The purpose of this study was to analyze the changes in kinematic and kinetic parameters of lower extremity joint according to rehabilitation period. Fourteen collegiate male athletes(age: $22.1{\pm}1.35$ years, height: $182.46{\pm}9.45cm$, weight: $88.63{\pm}9.25kg$) and fourteen collegiate athletes on functional ankle instability(age: $21.5{\pm}1.35$ years, height: $184.45{\pm}9.42cm$, weight: $92.85{\pm}10.85kg$) with the right leg as dominant were chosen. The subjects performed drop landing. The date were collected by using VICON with 8 camera to analyze kinematic variables and force platform to analyze kinetic variables. There are two approaches of this study, one is to compare between groups, the other is to find changes of lower extremity joint after rehabilitation. In comparison to the control group, FAI group showed more increased PF & Inversion at IC and decreased full ROM when drop landing. Regarding the peak force and loading rate, it resulted in higher PVGRF and loading. FAI group used more increased knee and hip ROM because of decreased ankle ROM to absorb the shock. And it used sagittal movement to stabilize. In terms of rehabilitation period, FAI group showed that landing patterns were changed and it increased total ankle excursion and used all lower extremity joint close to normal ankle. Regarding the peak force and loading rate, FAI group decreased PVGRF and loading rate. and also showed shock absorption using increased ankle movement. And COP variable showed that proprioception training increased stability during 8 weeks. The results of this study suggest that 8 weeks rehabilitation period is worthwhile to be considered as a way to improve neuromuscular control and to prevent sports injuries.
