The purpose of this study was to compare kinematic data between experts and novices, and identify difference kinematic parameters changing direction to kick in penalty kick of soccer play. Novice subjects were 5 high school students Who has never been experienced a soccer player, and expert subjects were 5 competitive high school soccer players. The 3-d angle was calculated by Euler's Angle by inertial axis and local axis with three-dimensional cinematography. Kinematic parameters in this study consisted of angles of knee joints, hip joints, lower trunk and upper trunk when the support foot was contacted on ground and kicking foot impacted the ball. The difference of angle of knee joints in the flexion/extension was insignificantly showed below $4{\sim}9^{\circ}$ in groups and directions of ball at the time of support and impact. But the difference of angle of hip joint was significant in groups and directions of ball at the time of support and impact. Specially the right hip joint of experts were more flexed about $12^{\circ}$($43.99{\pm}6.17^{\circ}$ at left side, $31.87{\pm}4.49^{\circ}$ at right side), less abducted about $10^{\circ}$ ($-31.27{\pm}4.49^{\circ}$ at left side, $-41.97{\pm}6.67^{\circ}$ at right side) at impact when they kicked a ball to the left side of goalpost. The difference of amplitude angle in the trunk was significantly shown at upper trunk not lower trunk. The upper trunk was external rotated about $30^{\circ}$ (novice' angle was $-16.3{\pm}17.08^{\circ}$, expert's angle was $-43.73{\pm}12.79^{\circ}$) at impact. Therefore the significant difference of kinematic characteristics could be found at the right hip joint and the upper trunk at penalty kick depending on the direction of kicking.

The purpose of the research is to let people recognize the necessity of Karatedo training and enhance the value of it. Karate sparring is quite helpful to learn the skills that how to escort a protectee as a guard. The skills are divided into hand skills, foot skills and pitching skills. Firstly, it is the hand skills. 'ap-son-chi-gi' or 'di-son-chi-gi' at pressure points such as face, neck and abdomen is effective to overpower adversary. If straight attacks are not easy, 'return stroke' is better. Secondly, it is the foot skills. Front kick towards pressure points, straight attacks like side kick and hindpaw kick and curving attacks like front-spinning kick, 'ap-hu-ri-gi and 'di-hu-ri-gi', these are different types of the foot skills. Lastly, it is the pitching skills. To overpower compeletly, tripping up and 'hu-ri-gi' for breaking the balance and then hand and foot skills for attacking the pressure points are the best way.

The purpose of this study was to provide data to increase the success rate of penalty kicks through quantifying the shape of skilled kicks by performing a kinematic analysis on the change of movement during the kicking phase which the goalkeeper uses as a vital clue. Three high definition video cameras(GR-HD1KR, JVC, Japan) were used for the study and 18 reflective markers were attached to the body joints. Corners of the goal, difficult for goalkeepers to block, were set as aims and 1 m by 1.2 m targets were installed. Each subject had five sets of kicks at random, and the analysis was done on the movements that hit the target. Time, speed of the right lower limb's center of mass, joint angle, and angular velocity were chosen as factors and the results of the analysis showed statistical significance. The player taking a penalty kick should train to avoid leaning one's body towards the kicking direction and change the angle of the right foot right before the impact to decide the direction of the ball. The goalkeeper can increase the save success rate by studying the angle of the kicker's body and the right foot as well as the timing of the kick.

A Kick Motor, KSLV-I second stage propulsion system, utilizes a flexible seal for pitch and yaw axis controls during combustion. A flexible seal consists of the alternate laminate of rubber and composite reinforcement between forward and aft rings. A Kick Motor nozzle is rotated by the shear deformation of rubber layers. Consequently, the development of rubber, which is appropriate to the usage condition of flexible seal, is very important. A tensile test, QLS test (shear modulus and failure shear stress), and aging test have been carried out to confirm the performance of rubber developed. Test results show that the shear modulus of rubber are 0.4310 ~ 0.4997MPa and the failure shear stress is more than 2.5MPa.

The purpose of perigee kick motor firing is to place a satellite into transfer orbit and that of apogee kick motor firing is to place the satellite into geosynchonous orbit in order to increase the semi-major axis of the transfer orbit and reduce the inclination of the transfer orbit. Because apogee motor firing is always accompanied with injection errors, the satellite is not placed into geosynchonous orbit but into a near-geosynchonous orbit, also knows as a drift orbit. Thus, the orbital maneuver to correct drift orbit into gteosynchonous orbit is required, this maneuver is called the station acquisition. For reduction of expenditure and performance of mission, we estimate $\Delta$V budget and required fuel allowance for station acquisition. As the uncertainty of drift orbit by injection error of perigee and apogee kick motor firing prevents us from obtaining exact $\Delta$V budget, statistical Monte Carlo simulation technique is used in order to get optimal $\Delta$V budget and required fuel allowance with a probability of 99%. With respect to Korea satellite launched by Delta-2 launch vehicle in 1995, Monte Carlo analysis is used in order to get various orbital parameters, $\Delta$V budget and required fuel allowance for station acquisition with a probability of 99%.
