This study focused on the method of interpreting Moire's topography. There has been no standard of interpretation which informed, this study, The conclusions arc as follows: Miore's image closed contour lines which is consisted of points. These points in one contour have the same distances from the screen to the patient's back. Moire's index means the number of contour gaps from symmetrical point of a specific point with the axis of central line. The number of contours which pass the median line means the degree of antero-posterior curvature.

A new hardware compensation method reducing displacement measurement errors, caused by tilt of index scale in moire linear encoders, has been developed. In conventional moire linear encoders, the detectors are aligned perpendicular to the line of moire fringes this structure is very sensitive to an unwanted tilt of the gratings. In this paper, a newly designed grating, called a phase-modulated grating, is developed to compensate for non-orthogonal errors. By using the phase-modulated grating instead of a conventional index, it is possible to reduce non-orthogonal errors of moire linear encoders.

Objectives : The purpose of this study was to investigate the factors related on pain in female office workers. Methods : Neck pain group of 31 female subjects complained of neck and arm discomfort. Normal group of 20 female subjects had no complaints or minimal discomfort. Cervical curvature and muscle tone were assessed by whole spine x-ray, meridian-electromyography(MEMG), craniovertebral angle, and Moire. Neck pain was evaluated by Neck Disability Index(NDI) and Visual Analog Scale(VAS). The emotional and other physical factors that could effect neck pain were checked by questionnaires including Beck Depression Index(BDI), Stress Reaction Index(SRI), Holmes & Rahe Social Readjustment Rating Scale(SRRS), International Physical Activity Questionnaire(IPAQ), and Gastrointestinal Symptom Rating Scale(GSRS). Results : The contraction and fatigue of upper trapezius by MEMG was significantly higher in the neck pain group. And BDI, SRI, SRRS, and GSRS were significantly higher in the neck pain group (p<0.05). However, there was no significant difference in the Jackson's angle, Cobb's method, craniovertebral angle, and moire between two groups. Conclusions : The results suggest that neck pain is related to mental stress rather than physical stress and physical stress does not change cervical curvature significantly.

Objective : The purpose of this study was to investigate the effects of a body alignment correction program on asymmetrically developed squash players. Method : 30 experienced squash players who showed asymmetric body development, after evaluation of moire topography contour line shape, were involved in the experiment. All of them were right-handed and had more than five years of experience playing squash. Variables of body composition, moire topography and EMG were statistically compared between pre- and post- application of the 12-week body alignment correction program. The program consisted of 10-minute, left-handed forehand and backhand drive movements and 36 minutes performing 12 different yoga postures. Results : First, the body alignment correction program showed significant effects on the total weight, body fat percentage, and body mass index of the participants. Second, a decrease of right side inclined angles and an increase of left side inclined angles might result in a higher left-right symmetry rate and a better left-right balance; however the data was not statistically significant. Third, the EMG left-right deviation of erector spinae and latissimus decreased and the erector spinae muscle was thought to be more essential for vertebral movement and left-right asymmetry correction. Conclusion : A body alignment correction program, including yoga and opposite side exercises, could reduce left-right asymmetry.

근래 활발히 연구되고 있는 광통신 분야에서 광섬유는 중요한 위치를 차지하고 있으며 현재까지 여러 가지 연구가 되어져 왔다. 광섬유 중 플라스틱 광섬유는 근거리 광통신 분야에 사용을 위해서 활발한 연구와 개발이 이루어지고 있다. 이러한 광섬유의 특성을 결정짓는 중요한 요소 중 하나가 광섬유의 굴절률 분포이다. 광섬유의 굴절률 분포는 광 전송특성을 결정짓는 요소로서 이러한 이유 때문에 좋은 전송특성을 위해 GRIN 광섬유의 개발과 연구가 이루어져 왔다. (중략)

광통신 분야의 연구 중 근거리 광통신 분야에 적용하기 위한 Plastic Optical Fiber(POF)에 관한 연구와 개발이 활발히 이루어지고 있다. POF의 광전송 특성을 결정짓는 요소 중 가장 중요한 특성이 바로 굴절률 분포이다. 이에 따라 그동안 다양한 형태의 POF 굴절률 측정 방법이 연구되어 왔다. 기존 Glass Optical Fiber의 굴절률 분포 측정 방법 중 가장 일반적이고 효과적인 방법 중 하나는 coherent 빛의 간섭을 이용한 transverse interferograms을 분석하는 방법으로 Fizeau 간섭계와 같은 간섭계를 이용하여 위상변화를 측정하고 측정한 위상을 tomography적인 해석방법을 통해 굴절률 분포를 계산하는 방법이다.

Background: The purpose of this study is to find out the effect on the improvement in idiopathic scoliosis when applying the orthopedic manual physical therapy and myofascial release technique. Methods: 20 patients in Cheon-An ${\bigcirc}{\bigcirc}$ hospital were selected as subjects whose Cobb's angle were higher than $10^{\circ}$ according to the radiograph. They were treated for 60 minutes a day, three days a week, and 8 weeks so that the total time of visit would be 24. We performed five tests (Moire test, X-ray, standing height test, Cobb's angle, pelvic level test, VAS) to indentifiy the therapeutic effects. Results: Four test results were improved more remarkably after those treatment than before(p<.001), except pelvic level test (p>.001). Conclusion: we confirmed that there were correcting effects on most of the valuation index from the primary analysis, which divided the subjects into 2 groups by Cobb's angle, but there were more effective in patients having lower than $25^{\circ}$. There were similarly correcting effects on most of the valuation index according to the secondary analysis, but there were particularly more effective in children.
