Objective: The purpose of this study was to investigate the effects of joint mobilization on foot pressure, ankle moment, and vertical ground reaction force in subjects with ankle instability. Method: Twenty male subjects (age, $25.38{\pm}3.62yr$; height, $170.92{\pm}5.41cm$; weight, $60.74{\pm}9.63kg$; body mass index (BMI), $19.20{\pm}1.67kg/m^2$) participated and underwent ankle joint mobilization. Weight-bearing distribution, ankle dorsi/plantar flexion moment, and vertical ground reaction force were measured using a GPS 400 and a VICON Motion System (Oxford, UK), and subsequently analyzed. SPSS 20.0 for Windows was used for data processing and paired t-tests were used to compare pre- and post-mobilization measurements. The significance level was set at ${\alpha}$ = .05. Results: The results indicated changes in weight-bearing, ankle dorsi/plantar flexion moment, and vertical ground reaction force. The findings showed changes in weight-bearing distribution on the left (pre $29.51{\pm}6.31kg$, post $29.57{\pm}5.02kg$) and right foot (pre $32.40{\pm}6.30kg$, post $31.18{\pm}5.47kg$). There were significant differences in dorsi/plantar flexion moment (p < .01), and there were significant increases in vertical ground reaction forces at initial stance (Fz1) and terminal stance (Fz2, p < .05). Additionally, there was a significant reduction in vertical ground reaction force at midstance (Fz2, p < .001). Conclusion: Joint mobilization appears to alter weight-bearing distribution in subjects with ankle instability, with resultant improvements in stability.

A ship cruising in the ocean oscillates continuously due to wave action. In order to reduce the ship's roll, we developed a fin stabilizer as an anti-rolling device for a 500-ton-class high-speed marine vessel. During the development phase, it was necessary to set up control gains for the motion and hydraulic systems and assess the effectiveness of the anti-rolling performance on the ground. For this reason, a Target Simulator, which simulated the ship's motion, was given operator inputs such as the engine telegraph and waterjet deflection angle, and generated roll using a one-degree-of-freedom motion base. Hardware-In-the-Loop Simulation (HILS) was performed using the Target Simulator in order to confirm the various logics of the developed fin stabilizer, select initial control gains, and estimate the anti-rolling performance. In conclusion, it was confirmed that HILS was very helpful to develop the fin stabilizer because it could reduce the number of sea trial tests that were needed and could find many malfunctions in the factory a priori.

The initial impact at foot strike is produced by a slider type mechanical model, which can be measured using a force platform to evaluate various shoes. The lower extremity and foot motion was filmed by a 16mm high speed movie camera and several points on the rear half of the shoe and those near the trochanter and the lateral epicondyle were digitized to provide the linear and angular positions and velocities during impact. With these observed kinematics, a slider type foot strike simulator composed of guide rail and sliding dummy is designed. The simulator system makes the artificial foot of the dummy with running shoe on it to follow the foot strike motion. The dummy has the relevant mass-spring-damper system modeled after McMahon's. The motion of the model is drived by the gravity force and the generated motion alone with the ground reaction forces are monitored by the same procedures afore mentioned producing the initial foot strike impact similar to the onto observed in human gait.

Due to the severe impacts of recent earthquakes, the use of seismic isolation is paramount for the safety of nuclear structures. The diversity observed in seismic events demands ongoing research to analyze the devastating attributes involved, and hence to enhance the sustainability of base-isolated nuclear power plants. This study reports the seismic performance of a seismically-isolated nuclear reactor containment building (NRCB) under strong short-period ground motions (SPGMs) and long-period ground motions (LPGMs). The United States Nuclear Regulatory Commission-based design response spectrum for the seismic design of nuclear power plants is stipulated as the reference spectrum for ground motion selection. Within the period range(s) of interest, the spectral matching of selected records with the target spectrum is ensured using the spectral-compatibility approach. NRC-compliant SPGMs and LPGMs from the mega-thrust Tohoku earthquake are used to obtain the structural response of the base-isolated NRCB. To account for the lack of earthquakes in low-to-moderate seismicity zones and the gap in the artificial synthesis of long-period records, wavelet-decomposition based autoregressive moving average modeling for artificial generation of real ground motions is performed. Based on analysis results from real and simulated SPGMs versus LPGMs, the performance of NRCBs is discussed with suggestions for future research and seismic provisions.

This study identifies efficient earthquake intensity measures (IMs) for seismic performances and fragility evaluations of the reactor containment building (RCB) in the advanced power reactor 1400 (APR1400) nuclear power plant (NPP). The computational model of RCB is constructed using the beam-truss model (BTM) for nonlinear analyses. A total of 90 ground motion records and 20 different IMs are employed for numerical analyses. A series of nonlinear time-history analyses are performed to monitor maximum floor displacements and accelerations of RCB. Then, probabilistic seismic demand models of RCB are developed for each IM. Statistical parameters including coefficient of determination (R²), dispersion (i.e. standard deviation), practicality, and proficiency are calculated to recognize strongly correlated IMs with the seismic performance of the NPP structure. The numerical results show that the optimal IMs are spectral acceleration, spectral velocity, spectral displacement at the fundamental period, acceleration spectrum intensity, effective peak acceleration, peak ground acceleration, A95, and sustained maximum acceleration. Moreover, weakly related IMs to the seismic performance of RCB are peak ground displacement, root-mean-square of displacement, specific energy density, root-mean-square of velocity, peak ground velocity, Housner intensity, velocity spectrum intensity, and sustained maximum velocity. Finally, a set of fragility curves of RCB are developed for optimal IMs.

한반도 남부지역의 세부적인 지진파 감쇠특성 규명을 위해, 기존에는 적용이 불가능하였던 Q 토모그래피 역산을 위한 사전 수치검증 연구를 수행하였다. 특히 강지진동모사를 위해 일반적으로 사용되고 있는 추계학적 점지진원 지진동 모델(stochastic point-source ground-motion model; Boore, 2003)에서 사용되는 Q 값에 대한 2차원(2D; 2 Dimensional) 토모그래피 역산을 시도함으로써 역산 결과가 강지진동모사에 직접 활용될 수 있도록 하였다. 수치검증 방법으로는 Q 토모그래피 checkerboard 시험방법이 사용되었는데, 이를 위해 광역 단일 Q 모델의 추계학적 지진동모델 파라미터 역산결과의 지진원과 부지효과 모델 파라미터 값을 이용해서 관측자료와 지진규모-거리-주파수-오차 분포가 동일한 스펙트럼 합성자료를 생성하였다. 수치검증을 위한 Q 블록 격자의 총 개수는 75개(내륙지역=69개(약 $35{\times}44km^2$의 격자크기); 해양지역=6개)로 설정하였으며, $Q_0f^{\eta}$ 함수형태의 Q 블록 값은 $Q_0$=100, 500, ${\eta}=0.0{\sim}1.0$의 분포를 갖도록 하고, 파선의 깊이는 별도로 고려하지 않았다. 스펙트럼 합성자료 생성에 이용된 모델파라미터의 정해와 모델파라미터의 역산결과를 비교하기 위한 checkerboard 수치검증은 3단계에 걸쳐 수행되었는데, 1단계는 블록별 Q의 초기값 추정 단계이며, 2단계는 관측소별 부지증폭함수를 추정하는 단계, 마지막 3단계에서는 최종적인 Q를 도출하는 단계이다. 관측소별 부지증폭함수의 초기 추정값으로는 기 분류된 관측소 등급에 대한 평균 부지증폭함수(연관희, 서정희, 2007)가 사용되었으며, 3단계의 checkerboard 수치검증 결과 최종적으로 추정된 부지효과 모델에는 오차가 발생하였으나 블록별 Q의 정해는 만족할 정도로 추정할 수 있었다.

계기에 의한 진도산정은 보통 PGA와 진도와의 경험적인 관계식으로부터 계산되어 왔다. 그러나 일본 기상청은 지진에 의한 피해의 정도는 관측된 PGA보다는 진도와 상관이 더 크다는 점에 착안하여, 지진 계측기에 의해 실시간으로 진도를 산정(JMA 계측 진도)함으로서 지진재해를 좀 더 정확히 평가하는 방안을 채택하고 있다. 이 연구의 목적은 국내에서의 JMA 계측진도의 실제적인 활용방안을 제시하는 것이다. 한반도는 강진의 발생빈도가 낮기 때문에 사용할 수 있는 강진자료가 충분치 않다. 따라서 한반도의 지진원 특성과 감쇠특성에 맞는 강진동을 추계학적인 방법으로 합성하였다. 이러한 방법으로 합성된 강진자료에 대하여 JMA 계측진도를 포함한 6개의 공학적 지진동 상수들을 계산하였다. 다음으로 계산된 상수들 사이의 경험적인 관계식을 결정하였으며, 이 상수들을 몇 개의 그룹으로 분류하기 위한 군집분석을 수행하여 지진동 상수들을 분류하였다. 그 결과, JMA 가속도 ($a_0$)는 스펙트럼 진도와 유사한 그룹으로 분류되었으며, CAV(Cumulative Absolute Velocity)와는 비교적 관계가 먼 그룹으로 나타났다. JMA 계측진도는 지진재해 평가에 있어서 다른 하나의 평가척도로서 사용이 기능할 것으로 생각된다. 한편 지진재해의 예측에 활용이 가능한 PGA와 $a_0$에 대한 감쇠식이 모멘트 규모와 진원거리의 함수로 유도되었다.

A method for dynamic analysis and design calculation of a Powertrain Mounting System(PMS) including Hydraulic Engine Mounts(HEM) is developed with the aim of controlling powertrain motion and reducing low-frequency vibration in pitch and bounce modes. Here the pitch mode of the powertrain is defined as the mode rotating around the crankshaft of an engine for a transversely mounted powertrain. The powertrain is modeled as a rigid body connected to rigid ground by rubber mounts and/or HEMs. A mount is simplified as a three-dimensional spring with damping elements in its Local Coordinate System(LCS). The relation between force and displacement of each mount in its LCS is usually nonlinear and is simplified as piecewise linear in five ranges in this paper. An equation for estimating displacements of the powertrain center of gravity(C.G.) under static or quasi-static load is developed using Newton's second law, and an iterative algorithm is presented to calculate the displacements. Also an equation for analyzing the dynamic response of the powertrain under ground and engine shake excitations is derived using Newton's second law. Formulae for calculating reaction forces and displacements at each mount are presented. A generic PMS with four rubber mounts or two rubber mounts and two HEMs are used to validate the dynamic analysis and design calculation methods. Calculated displacements of the powertrain C.G. under static or quasi-static loads show that a powertrain motion can meet the displacement limits by properly selecting the stiffness and coordinates of the tuning points of each mount in its LCS using the calculation methods developed in this paper. Simulation results of the dynamic responses of a powertrain C.G. and the reaction forces at mounts demonstrate that resonance peaks can be reduced effectively with HEMs designed on the basis of the proposed methods.

Background: Hallux valgus (HV) is a foot deformity developed by mediolateral deviation of the first metatarsophalangeal joint. Although various foot-toe orthoses were used to correct the HV angle, verification of the effects of kinetics variables such as ground reaction force (GRF) through three-dimensional (3D) gait analysis according to the various type of orthoses for HV is insufficient. Objects: This study aimed to investigate the effect of soft and hard types of foot and toe orthoses to correct HV deformity on the GRF in individuals with HV using 3D motion analysis system during walking. Methods: Twenty-six subjects participated in the experiment. Participants had HV angle of more than 15° in both feet. Two force platforms were used to obtain 3D GRF data for both feet and a 3D motion capture system with six infrared cameras was used to measure exact stance phase point such as heel strike or toe off period. Total walk trials of each participant were 8 to 10, the walkway length was 6 m. Two-way repeated measures ANOVA was used to determine the effects of each orthosis condition on the various GRF values. Results: The late anteroposterior maximal force and a first vertical peak force of the GRF showed that the hard type orthosis condition significantly increased GRF compared to the other orthosis conditions (p < 0.05). Conclusion: There were significant effects in GRF values when wearing the hard type foot orthosis. However, the hard type foot orthosis was uncomfortable to wear during walking. Therefore, it is necessary to develop a new foot-toe orthosis that can compensate for these disadvantages.
