Purpose : The purpose of this study is to examine the effect of the segmental mobilization technique of the lower back on the characteristics of the muscles and limited of stability of chronic backache patients. Methods : The subjects of the study were 30 chronic back pain patients who were divided into groups of 15, a manual therapy group (Group I) and a spinal decompression therapy group (Group II), via random assignation. The subjects had 15 minutes of superficial heat therapy, 15 minutes of interference wave therapy, and 5 minutes of ultrasound therapy for conservative physical therapy. Additionally, manual therapy and spinal decompression therapy were administered to each group for 30 minutes, 5 times a week for 8 weeks. Before intervention, the characteristics of the muscles and limited of stability of the muscles were analyzed. After 8 weeks of intervention, the above items were re-measured in the same manner and analyzed between groups. Results : The results of comparative analysis of the characteristics of the muscles and limited of stability between groups showed that there were statistically significant differences. The manual therapy group (Group I) showed significant differences in characteristics of the muscles compared to the spinal decompression therapy group (Group II). The manual therapy group (Group I) showed significant differences in limited of stability compared to the spinal decompression therapy group (Group II). Conclusion : The result confirmed that manual therapy was more effective in the characteristics of the muscles and limited of stability. Based on this study, additional studies are necessary on the effect of various techniques of manual therapy on muscle activity and muscle thickness in chronic back pain patients. In order to develop an effective manual therapy program, studies using a variety of evaluations are needed.

This paper presents the basic application idea of superconductor cable for voltage stability limited power system. In bulk power system, the transfer capability of transmission line is often limited by the voltage stability, and superconductor cable could be on of the countermeasure to enhance heat transfer limit as well as voltage stability limit. Steady state voltage stability approach by P-V curve is used to calculate the maximum transfer capability of initial system and superconductor applied system IEEE-14 bus system is used to demonstrate its applicability.

본 연구는 복부압박벨트가 만성 뇌졸중 환자의 안정성한계와 보행 변수에 즉각적인 효과를 알아보기 위해 실시하였다. 뇌졸중 환자 30명을 모집하여 복부압박벨트 착용 전과 복부압박벨트 착용 후 변화를 확인하였다. 측정은 균형변수인 안정성한계(limited of stability), 시공간적 보행 변수(spatiotemporal gait parameter)를 측정하였다. 복부압박벨트 착용 후 마비측, 비마비측, 전방, 후방 이동면적이 유의하게 증가하였고(p<.05), 시간적 보행 변수인 분속수(cadence), 보행속도(gait velocity), 공간적 보행변수인 보폭(stride length)이 유의하게 증가하였다(p<.05). 본 연구를 통해 복부압박벨트 착용은 뇌졸중 환자에게 균형과 보행 기능 개선에 즉각적인 효과가 있다는 것을 확인할 수 있었다. 향후 연구에서는 뇌졸중 환자의 균형과 보행 기능 개선에 효율적인 복부압박 수준과 중재기간에 대한 연구가 필요하다.

This paper presents a lateral stability control for rear wheel drive (RWD) vehicles using electronic limited slip differentials (eLSD). The proposed eLSD controller is designed to increase the understeer characteristic by transferring torque from the outside to inside wheel. The proposed algorithm is devised to improve the lateral responses at the steady state and transient cornering. In the steady state response, the proposed algorithm can extend the region of linear cornering response and can increase the maximum limit of available lateral acceleration. In the transient response, the proposed controller can reduce the yaw rate overshoot by increasing the understeer characteristic. The proposed algorithm has been investigated via computer simulations. In the simulation results, the performance of the proposed controller is compared with uncontrolled cases. The simulation results show that the proposed algorithm can improve the vehicle lateral stability and handling performance.

본 논문은 전력계통의 전압 안정도 제약 문제를 해결하는데 고온 초전도 케이블을 적용하기 위한 기법을 제시하였다. 대전력계통의 유효 송전용량은 종종 전압 안정도 제약에 의해 결정된다. 기존의 초전도 케이블 응용 연구는 주로 도심지역의 고밀도 전력 수송 문제를 해결하는 대안으로 연구의 초점을 두어왔지만, 고온 초전도 케이블의 선로정수 개선효과를 이용하면 전압 안정도로 제약된 계통의 송전용량을 증가시킬 수 있어 그 응용 범위가 확대될 수 있다. 전압 안정도에 의한 최대 수송전력을 결정하는 데는 IPLAN에 의한 P-V곡선을 이용하였고, 대체 대상선로는 부하 증가시 무효전력 손실감도가 가장 큰 선로로 하였다. 결과의 타당성을 검증하기 위해 IEEE 14모선 계통을 사용하였으며, 적용결과 Case II는 70[%], Case III에서는 160[%]의 추가 수송 능력 증가를 가져올 수 있었다.

Negative bias temperature instability (NBTI) and positive bias temperature instability (PBTI) are critical circuit reliability issues in highly scaled CMOS technologies. In this paper, we analyze the impacts of NBTI and PBTI on SRAM $V_{MIN}$, and present a design solution for mitigating the impact of NBTI and PBTI on SRAM $V_{MIN}$. Two different types of SRAM $V_{MIN}$ (SNM-limited $V_{MIN}$ and time-limited $V_{MIN}$) are explained. Simulation results show that SNM-limited $V_{MIN}$ is more sensitive to NBTI while time-limited $V_{MIN}$ is more prone to suffer from PBTI effect. The proposed NBTI/PBTI-aware control of wordline pulse width and woldline voltage improves cell stability, and mitigates the $V_{MIN}$ degradation induced by NBTI/PBTI.

This paper presents a series of simulation results of transient stability on SCOPF operated power system whose transmission capabilities are limited by voltage stability. Three steps of voltage security guidelines, 5[%], 7[%], 10[%] are introduced to increase power transfer from generation centers to load center and observed the effects of voltage guidelines to transient stability for three kinds of load level(peak, medium, off-peak). As a result, dynamic characteristics weren't affected by the voltage security limits in model system, but became worse for the off-peak level than peak case, and sustain oscillations are observed for the all load level. This gives us some intitutions for the development and applications of security limits to use SCOPF program in open electric market.

Loss of postural stability can possibly lead to slip and fall accidents in the number of workplaces and everyday life. This study was aimed to examine the effects of whole body fatigue and partially limited visual field on the ability of maintaining postural balance during quiet standing. A group of twelve healthy male subjects participated in the experiment. Before and after experiencing the whole body fatigue induced by bicycling exercises, the position coordinates of subject's center of pressure (COP) were obtained under the two levels of visual field condition (i.e., open visual field and limited visual field). Four levels of the whole body fatigue examined were rest, 300watt, 600watt, and 900watt. Position coordinates of COPs measured on a force plate were then converted into the total length of postural sway path in both the medio-lateral (ML) direction and the anterior-posterior (AP) direction. Two-way ANOVA result showed that the length of sway path in the AP direction became significantly larger as the whole body fatigue accumulated. Post-hoc test revealed statistically significant differences between rest and 900watt and between 300watt and 900watt. The significant increase of the sway length was also found when the visual field was partially obstructed by the boxes. In the ML direction, however, there was no statistically significant difference of the postural sway in both the AP and ML directions. The results imply that the ability of maintaining postural stability can be reduced significantly due to such tasks along with whole body fatigue. The postural balance can also be impaired by the limited visual field.

본 연구는 만성 뇌졸중으로 인한 편마비 환자를 대상으로 런지자세에서 자가신장과 움직임을 동반한 가동술을 적용후에 하지근육 근활성도와 안정성한계에 미치는 영향을 알아보는데 있다. 대상자 16명을 무작위 추출하여 실험군과 대조군으로 분류하였다. 실험군은 런지자세에서 자가신장을 중재하였고, 대조군은 런지자세에서 움직임을 동반한 가동술을 중재하였다. 중재는 8주 동안 주 5회, 1회 20분의 중재를 시행하였다. 통계학적 처리는 반복 측정분산분석을 이용하여 실시하였다. 결과는 실험군과 대조군의 그룹간 하지근육 근활성도(%MVIC)와 안정성 한계(LOS)는 통계학적 유의성이 없었다(p>.05). 하지만 실험군과 대조군의 그룹 내의 근활성도와 안정성 한계는 통계학적으로 유의하였다(p<.05). 따라서 뇌졸중으로 인한 편마비 환자들에게 런지자세에서 자가신장이 근력 및 균형에 긍정적인 영향을 줄 수 있을 것으로 생각된다.

In recent years, the challenge of higher energy efficiency has emerged as urban buildings have become taller, and the area of window glasses has increased. To address the problem of energy efficiency in buildings, research on smart windows is being actively conducted. In this study, an accelerated experiment for thermal stability was conducted to fabricate a liquid crystal cell applicable to external windows. It was confirmed from the study that the function is maintained even in a high-temperature external environment through the change in transmittance by voltage. Compared with the initial transmittance, after the passage of time, the smart window cell to which the sealant was applied showed a small change in transmittance of 1~2%. This result confirmed the thermal stability of the liquid crystal-based smart window.
