선박의 조종성능 평가는 유체역학적으로 매우 복잡한 문제로, 정화한 조종성능 평가를 위해서는 구속모형시험에 의한 유체력의 계측과 수학모델에 의한 수치시뮬레이션, 또는 자유항주시험 등이 필수적이다. 한편 최근 IMO의 "조종성 기준"이 발효되고 나서 각 조선현장에서는 이 기준에 부합되는 우수한 조종성능을 갖춘 선박을 설계초기 단계에서부터 계획할 필요성을 느끼게 되었다. 그러나, 초기설계단계에는 아직 선도가 정해지지 않아, 모형선을 만들수 없고, 따라서 선박의 주요목(예를 들어 L, B, d, $C_b$, Trim $\cdot\;cdot\;cdot$) 및 프로펠러 제원, 타(舵)형상과 같은 극히 제한된 자료를 입력(入力)으로 하여 조종성능을 어느정도 평가할 수 있어야 한다. 본 논문은 이러한 관점에서, 종래의 각종 구속모형시험 결과를 종합하고, 제안된 경험식등을 이용하여 선박의 조종성능을 추정하는 전산 프로그램을 개발하였다.

Objective: The purpose of this study was to identify the effect of high-heels (HH) modification on metatarsal stress in female workers. Method: Seven females who work in clothing stores ($heights=160.4{\pm}3.9cm$; $weights=47.4{\pm}4.1kg$; $age=31.3{\pm}11.1yrs$; $HH\;wear\;career=8{\pm}6.5yrs$) wore two types of HH (original and modified). The modified HH had been grooved with 1.5 cm radius and 0.2 cm depth around the first metatarsal area inside of the shoes using the modified shoe-last. Participants were asked to walk for 15 minutes on a treadmill and to stand for 10 minutes with original and modified HH, respectively. Kinetics data were collected by the F-scan in-shoe system. After each test, participants were asked to rate their perceived exertion using the Borg's 15-grade RPE scale and interviewed about their feeling of HH. Nonparametric Wilcoxon signed-rank test and effect size (Cohen's d) were used to determine the difference of the variables of interest between the original and modified HH. Results: In the present study, modified HH of the peak contact pressure of 1st metatarsal (PCP) left, PCP right, pressure time integral (PTI) left, peak pressure gradient (PPG) left during standing and PPG right during walking are greater than original HH. And even it didn't show statistically significant, the average in all pressure values of modified HH showed bigger than original HH. It surmised to be related to awkward with modified HH. Even though they said to feel the comfortable cause of big space inside of HH in the interview, they seemed to be not enough time to adapt with new HH. So their walking and standing postures were unstable. Conclusion: Modified the fore-medial part of HH can reduce the stress in the first metatarsal head and big toe area during standing and walking.

직조 구조의 복합재의 쓰임이 자동차, 항공 산업 등 여러 분야로 확장됨에 따라, 직조 복합재의 신뢰성 문제 및 물성예측에 대한 필요성이 대두되었다. 본 연구에서는 직조 구조가 다른 복합재료의 물성 예측을 위한 유한요소해석을 수행하여 실험으로 얻은 정적 물성과의 유사성을 검증하였고, 효과적인 모델링 방법을 개발하였다. 직조 구조의 특성을 반영하기 위하여 모델링은 메소 스케일의 대표 체적 요소(RVE)를 이용하였다. 섬유 다발과 순수 기지를 분리하여 3차원 모델링을 진행하였다. 하신 파괴 기준(Hashin's failure criteria)을 적용하여 요소의 파괴 유무를 판단하였고, 해석 모델은 복합재에 적합한 점진적 파괴 모델을 사용하였다. 최종적으로, 직조 구조에 따른 복합재의 물성을 성공적으로 예측하여 본 모델링 및 해석 기법에 대한 적합성을 검증하였다.

Background and Objectives: The Gaps-In-Noise (GIN) test is a clinically effective measure of the integrity of the central auditory nervous system. The GIN procedure can be applied to a pediatric population above 7 years of age. The present study conducted the GIN test to compare the abilities of auditory temporal resolution among typically developing children, children with speech sound disorder (SSD), and children with cognitive difficulty (CD). Subjects and Methods: Children aged 8 to 11 years-(total n=30) participated in this study. There were 10 children in each of the following three groups: typically developing children, children with SSD, and children with CD. The Urimal Test of Articulation and Phonology was conducted as a clinical assessment of the children's articulation and phonology. The Korean version of the Wechsler Intelligence Scale for Children-III (K-WISC-III) was administered as a screening test for general cognitive function. According to the procedure of Musiek, the pre-recorded stimuli of the GIN test were presented at 50 dB SL. The results were scored by the approximated threshold and the overall percent correct score (%). Results: All the typically developing children had normal auditory temporal resolution based on the clinical cutoff criteria of the GIN test. The children with SSD or CD had significantly reduced gap detection performance compared to age-matched typically developing children. The children's intelligence score measured by the K-WISC-III test explained 37% of the variance in the percent-correct score. Conclusions: Children with SSD or CD exhibited poorer ability to resolve rapid temporal acoustic cues over time compared to the age-matched typically developing children. The ability to detect a brief temporal gap embedded in a stimulus may be related to the general cognitive ability or phonological processing.

Objective : Extremely low alanine transaminase (ALT) levels are associated with all-cause mortality in frail elderly individuals; the clinical significance of ALT as a reliable biomarker is now being considered. Predicting mortality with routine tests at the time of diagnosis is important for managing patients after intracranial hemorrhage. We aimed to investigate whether an extremely low ALT level is associated with mortality in the elderly after intracranial hemorrhage. Methods : A retrospective review was performed on 455 patients with intracranial hemorrhage admitted to a university-affiliated tertiary care hospital from February 2014 to May 2019. Multivariate Cox regression analysis was performed for all ages and for each age group to determine whether an extremely low ALT level is an independent predictor of mortality only in the elderly. Results : Overall, 294 patients were enrolled, and the mean age of the subjects was 59.1 years, with 99 (33.8%) aged ≥65 years. The variables associated with all-cause mortality in all subjects were age, C-reactive protein (CRP) levels, hemoglobin (Hb) levels (<11 g/dL), and initial Glasgow coma scale (GCS) scores. In young patients, CRP, low Hb levels, and initial GCS scores were significantly associated with all-cause mortality. However, in the elderly (≥65 years), the variables significantly associated with all-cause mortality were extremely low levels of ALT (<10 U/L) (adjusted hazard ratio, 3.313; 95% confidence interval, 1.232-8.909; p=0.018) and initial GCS scores. Conclusion : Extremely low ALT level (<10 U/L) at the time of diagnosis is a significant risk factor for all-cause mortality in the elderly after intracranial hemorrhage.

Objectives: This study reports on the improvement of anti-N-methyl-D-aspartate (NMDA) receptor encephalitis with ovarian teratoma after Korean medicine treatment. Methods: A patient was treated with Korean medicine treatments, such as acupuncture and herbal medications (Gami-ondam-tang and Samulanshin-tang-gamibang). The patient's improvement was evaluated using manual muscle testing (MMT), the Mini-Mental State Exam-Korea (MMSE-K), the modified Barthel index (MBI), and the Clinical Assessment Scale in Autoimmune Encephalitis (CASE). Results: After using Korean medicine treatments, the patient's MMT, MMSE-K, and MBI scores increased, and the CASE score decreased. Conclusion: This case suggests that Korean medicine can be effective in treating the symptoms of anti-NMDA receptor encephalitis.

본 논문은 디지털 엑스선 장비(DR)에서 사지 검사 시 환자 체형 변화에 따른 최적의 관전압을 알아보고자 하였다. 상지검사는 면적선량(DAP) $5.06dGy{\ast} cm^2$, 하지검사는 DAP $5.04dGy{\ast} cm^2$ 고정한 상태에서 관전압을 4단계 변화시키며 각 단계마다 3회씩 반복 촬영하였다. 환자의 체형의 변화를 주기 위해 10 mm 씩 총 30 mm까지 두께를 증가하였다. 정량적 평가를 위해 Image J를 이용하여 관전압에 따른 네 그룹간의 대조도 및 신호 대 잡음비 값을 산출하였고 통계학적 검정은 95% 신뢰수준에서 Kruskal-Wallis test로 유의한 차이를 분석하였다. 영상의 정성적 분석을 위하여 정해진 항목에 관해 5점 리커트 척도로 평가 하였다. 상지와 하지 실험 모두에서 관전압이 증가할수록 영상의 대조도대잡음비(CNR)과 신호대잡음비(SNR)이 감소하였으며, 환자의 체형에 따른 차이를 보기 위한 실험에서는 두께가 두꺼워 질수록 CNR과 SNR이 감소하였다. 정성적 평과는 상지는 관전압이 증가할수록 점수가 증가하여 최고 55 kV 에서 4.6, 40 kV 에서 3.6이였으며, 하지는 관전압의 상관없이 평균 4.4의 고른 점수가 나왔다. 상, 하지 모두 두께가 두꺼워지면서 점수는 전반적으로 낮아졌으나 상지는 40 kV에서는 점수가 급격히 낮아졌고, 하지에서는 50 kV에서는 점수가 급격히 낮아졌다. 표준 두께를 가지고 있는 환자의 경우 상지에서는 45 kV, 하지에서는 50 kV로 촬영하는 것이 최적화 된 영상을 구현할 수 있으며, 환자의 체형 두께가 증가하는 경우 상지는 50 kV, 하지는 55 kV로 관전압을 설정 하는 것이 효과적이다.
