The purpose of this paper is to suggest the strategical lifting postures able to alleviate imbalanced EMG amplitude leading to an increase in low back muscle fatigue while lifting asymmetric load dynamically. Eleven male subjects are required to lift symmetrically an external load with 15.8kg and load center of gravity (LCG) deviated 10cm to the right from the floor to the waist height at the speed of about 25cm/sec. The EMG amplitudes on bilateral low back muscles (Longissimus, Iliocostalis, and Multifidus) are recorded during 2sec and analyzed. Independent variables are trunk postures (No bending vs. Bending to the LCG) and feet placements (Parallel vs. Right foot in front of the other vs. Right foot behind the other). Dependent variables are EMG amplitude average on six muscles and the EMG amplitude difference between right and left muscle group. Results indicate the phenomenon showing an amplitude increase in the left muscle group is equal to an decrease in the right one is observed in dynamic as well as static lifts, bending the trunk to the LCG increases amplitude discrepancy more than no trunk bending, and the amplitude discrepancy in one foot ipsilateral to LCG in front of the other foot is lowest among other foot postures. As bilateral EMG amplitude discrepancy increases total low back muscle fatigue, the strategical combination of no trunk bending and one foot close to LCG in front of the other is recommended for preventing elevated incidence of low back pain (LBP).

When driving on uniformly tining concrete pavement road, the whine noise which has high spectrum at the specific frequency related to the uniform tining space exist. In this paper, a randomization method of tining space for concrete pavements is proposed to reduce the whine noise. The proposed method is developed based on the LCG(linear congruential generator) algorithm. The design parameters used in the method are number of different tining space, ratio of each tining space, total linings of each size. sequence of actual tining under given constant drag length and texture. Monte Carlo simulations are used to validate the proposed method.

목적: SPIO-enhanced MRI상에서 얻은 radiological non-invasive hepatic fibrosis index (RNHFI)와 AST/혈소판 비(AST to platelet ratio index, APRI)간의 상관관계를 알아보고자 하였다. 대상 및 방법: 5년동안 SPIO-enhanced MRI를 시행받은 환자들을 대상으로 하였다. 환자들을 간경변 집단과 비(非)간경변 집단으로 분류했다. PACS를 이용, 각 환자의 SPIO-enhanced MRI에서 RNHFI (간실질 신호강도 표준편차의 평균(SD), 잡음교정 변이계수(CV))를 산출했고, 각 환자의 실험실 검사 결과를 이용, APRI를 산출했다. Student's t-test를 이용하여 두 집단간의 RNHFI와 APRI의 차이를 비교했다. 각 집단에서, RNHFI와 APRI간의 이변량 상관분석을 시행했다. 결과: 간경변 집단에서, SD, CV의 평균은 각각 $10.3{\pm}3.7$, $0.19{\pm}0.08$였다. 비간경변 집단에서, SD, CV의 평균은 각각 $6.5{\pm}1.6$, $0.08{\pm}0.05$였다. 두 집단의 평균 APRI는 각각 $2.04{\pm}1.7$, $0.32{\pm}0.32$였다. RNHFI와 APRI는 두 집단 사이에서 의미 있는 차이를 보였다 (p<0.05). 간경변 집단에서, SD와 APRI는 양의 상관관계를 보였다 (r=0.5, p<0.001). 결론: SD값이 간섬유화의 간단하고 유용한 예측 인자가 될 수 있을 것으로 기대된다.

본 연구에서는 콘크리트 포장에서 발생하는 소음을 저감시키기 위한 최적의 임의간격 횡방향 타이닝 설계 간격을 제안하였다. 기존 문헌조사를 바탕으로 소음 발생에 대한 원인을 규명하였고, LCG(linear congruential generators) 알고리즘 이론을 이용하여 특정 주파수에 집중되는 에너지를 효과적으로 분산시킬 수 있는 타이닝의 간격을 설계하였다. 실내 시뮬레이션 결과를 대구-포항 고속국도 현장에 적용하였고 기존 국내외에 적용된 임의간격 횡방향 타이닝 시공도 병행하여 실내 외 소음 및 교통소음을 비교하였다. 실내 외 소음 측정 결과, 피치 소음으로 인한 소음을 감소시킴으로써 임의간격 횡방향 타이닝 구간이 일반구간 보다 낮은 소음도를 보였으나, 그 효과가 크지 않았다. 교통 소음 측정에서도 전체적으로 일반 타이닝 구간에 비해 임의 간격 횡방향 타이닝 구간에서 더 큰 소음저감 효과를 확인할 수 있었으나, pass-by 소음 측정과는 다소 차이를 보였다.

The enormous prevalence of transferring official confidential digital documents via the Internet shows the urgent need to deliver confidential messages to the recipient without letting any unauthorized person to know contents of the secret messages or detect there existence . Several Steganography techniques such as the least significant Bit (LSB), Secure Cover Selection (SCS), Discrete Cosine Transform (DCT) and Palette Based (PB) were applied to prevent any intruder from analyzing and getting the secret transferred message. The utilized steganography methods should defiance the challenges of Steganalysis techniques in term of analysis and detection. This paper presents a novel and robust framework for color image steganography that combines Linear Congruential Generator (LCG), simulated annealing (SA), Cesar cryptography and LSB substitution method in one system in order to reduce the objection of Steganalysis and deliver data securely to their destination. SA with the support of LCG finds out the optimal minimum sniffing path inside a cover color image (RGB) then the confidential message will be encrypt and embedded within the RGB image path as a host medium by using Cesar and LSB procedures. Embedding and extraction processes of secret message require a common knowledge between sender and receiver; that knowledge are represented by SA initialization parameters, LCG seed, Cesar key agreement and secret message length. Steganalysis intruder will not understand or detect the secret message inside the host image without the correct knowledge about the manipulation process. The constructed system satisfies the main requirements of image steganography in term of robustness against confidential message extraction, high quality visual appearance, little mean square error (MSE) and high peak signal noise ratio (PSNR).

관행, 저농약 및 유기농 재배한 참다래 과실의 저온저장 중 품질변화를 조사하였다. 경도는 저장초기 심하게 감소한 다음 연화되는 경향을 보였는데 연화 속도는 유기농 과실에서 다소 빨랐다. 당도는 저장 중 증가하는 경향을 보인 반면, 산함량은 감소하였고, pH는 변화가 없었다. 환원당 함량은 전분함량이 감소하면서 저장초기 크게 증가하는 경향을 보였다. 유기농 과실은 저장 중 부패율이 관행재배나 저 농약재배에 비해 유의하게 높았고, 병을 유기하는 병원균은 잿빛곰팡이, 연부병, 꼭지썩음병 순으로 높았다. 호흡량과 함께 에틸렌발생량이 증가하면서 과실이 연화되었는데, 호흡량과 에틸렌함량은 유기농 과실에서 다소 높은 경향을 나타내었다. 유기농 과실은 연화와 함께 부패과 증가로 관행재배나 저 농약재배에 비해 저장력이 감소되었다.

This study is aimed to show that an asymmetric load in the frontal plane leads to an increase in low back loading and fatigue in comparison with a symmetric load when workers lift an external weight by investigating previous studies and verifying the phenomenon with an experiment. Ten male subjects are required to lift and hold an given external load at 70cm height during 50sec, then the EMG amplitude and median frequency on bilateral low back muscle groups (Longissimus, Iliocostalis, and Multifidus) are recorded and analyzed. Independent variables are two-level load weight (13kg, 20kg) and three-level LCG (Center, 6.5cm to the right, and 13cm to the right), and dependent variables are EMG amplitude average, difference, and Fatigue Index (FI). Results show that load weight increases significantly amplitude average and FI, but LCG does significantly amplitude difference and FI significantly (P-value < 0.05). Also the correlation coefficient between amplitude difference and FI is over 0.99. These implies that trunk loading should be explained by not EMG amplitude but muscle fatigue aspect since the association between an external load and amplitude is linear, but the relationship between an external load and median frequency as muscle fatigue index is almost exponential.

This study explores whether consumers' sustainable luxury purchase (SLP), which refers to luxury consumers' conscientious purchase behavior of "buying luxury for its timeless style and durable quality that leads to extended product usage and less waste," leads to luxury consumer pleasure (LCP). Furthermore, the current study examines whether LCP leads to positive post-purchase behavior reflected by sustainable divestment intention (SDI) and repurchase intention (RI). In addition, by building on Coping Theory, we explore whether luxury consumer guilt (LCG) positively moderates the relationship between LCP and SDI. Our empirical findings of the SEM analysis based on 452 valid responses demonstrate the significant relationships between SLP and LCP, between LCP and SDI, and between LCP and RI. This implies the importance of SLP in creating a favorable consumer response, which further leads to consumers' intentions to make a sustainable divestment and to repurchase luxury. Furthermore, the critical moderating role LCG plays in the relationship between LCP and SDI was supported, stressing the importance of guilt as a trigger of consumers' sustainable divestment behavior.
