Objectives: The purpose of this study was to investigate the association between sleep status and weight loss among adult women with obesity administered with Gamitaeeumjowee-tang. Methods: We retrospectively reviewed the medical records of 137 patients who were were administered with Gamitaeeumjowee-tang for 3 months for the purpose of weight loss. We divided subjects according to sleep duration and sleep quality. We conducted an independent t-test to compare the differences of weight loss between two groups. Also, a regression analysis was applied to determine which factors affected weight loss. Results: There was no significant difference in weight loss between patients who sleep more than 7 hours regularly and patients who sleep less than 7 hours. There was no significant difference between good sleepers and poor sleepers. Initial body mass index and the number of visits to the clinic were the significant factors in weight loss in 2-4 weeks. Initial weight loss was the significant factor in weight loss in 10-12 weeks. There was no significant correlation of sleep duration and sleep quality in weight loss in 2-4 weeks and 10-12 weeks. Conclusions: This study suggests that weight loss may not be affected by sleep status during Gamitaeeumjowee-tang intervention. ostachys japonicus, THP-1, acute myeloid leukemia, apoptosis, autophagy.

Sleep is a necessity for survival. Disruption of sleep leads to numerous adverse physiological and psychological consequences. These could be particularly undesirable for older patients, who are subject to many additional factors. But there is limited research related to hospitalized elderly in Korea. The purpose of the study is to explore sleep patterns and disturbing factors of before and after hospitalization, in order to present basic information regarding elderly sleep to develop nursing intervention. The sample consisted of 32 elderly men and women between the ages of n and 87 years. Data collection was done from September to November 1997. Measures of sleep patterns and related factors were obtained from self-reported sleep questionnaires. Analysis of data was done by use of t-test, paired t-test, ANOVA, and Pearson Correlation Coefficient. The results of this study were summarized as follows : 1. In comparision between before and after admission of their sleep pattern, “sleep onset” tends to be delayed and nocturnal sleep time was significantly reduced. So, hospitalized elderly reported less total sleep time than before admission. 2. Regarding the sleep disturbing factors, medication(hypnotics ; 37.5%), physiological factor (snoring ; 59.4%) environmental factor (pillow ; 78.1%), emotional factor(anxiety related to disease ; 37.5%), and illness factor(fatigue ; 34.7%) were reported. 3. Significant differences in gender were found. Men had more disturbances in sleep than women owing to difficulty in falling a sleep and lack of nocturnal sleep. Women consumed more sleep inducing drugs. Significant increase was reported in napping during the day with increasing age. 4. Significant differences between good sleepers and poor sleepers were found for the following variables : nocturnal sleep time, total sleep time, bed time, sleep onset latency time, sleep latency time after nocturnal awakening, time spent in bed upon arousal, environmental factors, and emotional factors. In conclusion, it was found that the quantity and quality of sleep were significantly altered in hospitalized elderly, but adequate strategies for better sleep were not practiced. Further research is needed to develop Intervention strategies to promote sleep and to prevent sleep problems.

본 연구의 목적은 IoT기반 무선 비접촉 콘크리트 시스템(ICUS)을 개발하고 이를 성능 평가하는데 있다. 개발된 시스템은 16개의 MEMS, 2Mhz의 digitizer, 증폭 회로, FPGA 및 wifi 모듈로 구성되어 있으며 무선 측정 시스템으로 콘크리트의 누설되는 표면파를 측정한다. 데이터 분석은 신호의 정확성을 높이기 위해 다중 채널 분석을 수행하였으며 이를 통해 누설 표면파 및 음향의 속도를 도출할 수 있다. 시스템의 성능을 평가하기 위해 기존의 초음파 전달속도 시험( UPV)과 결과비교 하였으며 이는 철도 현장의 콘크리트 침목에서 수행되었다. 시험 결과, 초음파 전달속도 시험(UPV)을 통해 균열을 검출하는 것은 침목의 균열 형태와 초음파 경로가 평행하거나 접촉식으로 현장 적용의 한계가 있음을 확인할 수 있었다. 하지만 개발된 IoT기반 비접촉 초음파 시스템(ICUS)은 손상되지 않은 침목에 비해 동탄성계수가 최대 59%감소하는 것을 확인할 수 있었다. 이를 통해 개발된 시스템의 표면파 신호 분석은 현장에서 균열을 평가하는데 활용될 수 있을 것으로 사료된다.

레일체결장치는 레일을 침목 등에 결속시켜 정해진 궤간의 유지와 열차 하중을 하부의 침목 및 도상 등에 전달하는 역할을 수행하는 주요 궤도 구성품이다. 본 논문에서는 도시철도 운영환경에서 파상마모에 대한 레일체결장치 클립의 진동 특성 분석을 위해서 조립상태에서 레일체결장치 클립의 모달테스트를 수행하여 고유진동수를 측정하였으며, 이를 파상마모에 의한 통과주파수와의 비교를 통해 공진 영향을 검토하였다. 또한 열차 주행시 파상마모에 따른 레일 및 레일체결장치 클립의 가속도와 레일체결장치 클립의 변형률을 계측하였다. 분석결과 레일 및 레일체결장치 클립의 가속도는 파상마모와 매우 밀접한 관계를 가지고 있으나, 레일체결장치 클립의 변형률과의 관계는 미비한 것으로 나타났다.

국내 대부분의 선구에 부설된 콘크리트침목은 적절히 유지관리되지 않을 경우 열차 운행의 안전성을 심각하게 위협하는 요소가 될 수 있다. 이 연구에서는 최근 가장 강력한 적응성(adaptive)을 갖는 기법으로 활용 범위를 넓히고 있는 Adaboost를 이용하여 고해상도카메라로 촬영한 침목이미지에서 균열을 자동검출할 수 있는 알고리즘을 개발하였다. 개발된 알고리즘은 실제 침목에 발생한 균열 및 비균열 이미지를 분석한 후 도출한 균열특징을 이용하여 학습하였다. 침목균열 자동검출 알고리즘의 적용성은 48개의 학습이미지와 11개의 비학습이미지를 이용하여 검토하였다. 검토 결과 학습이미지와 비학습이미지 모두 균열폭과 균열길이에 대한 인식률이 90% 이상으로 나타났으며, 충분한 균열인식 성능을 갖는 것으로 나타났다.

The societal interest on a faster transportation demands an increase of the train speed over the current operation speed of 350 km/h. However, the dynamic response in the roadbed of concrete track system subjected to the train speed ranging between 300 to 500 km/h has been systematically investigated. Herein, a series of the 2-dimensional numerical simulations using various train speeds were performed. A single wheel was modeled by the rigid body. The rail was attached to the sleepers via linear springs in parallel. The results show that the vertical displacement at the rail and track concrete layer exponentially increases when the train speed increases over 400 km/h. This conclusion implies an existence of the critical train velocity at which the displacement of the track system dramatically increases.

The wooden sleeper has been used at the railway track. Recently the concrete sleeper is pushing the wooden sleeper out, but huge amount of waste wooden sleepers are discharged every year. Due to the contaminant of waste wooden sleeper, its disposal is very difficult. Commonly a wood preservative such as creosote is used in the manufacturing process and it becomes major contaminant after use. And the wooden sleeper is contaminated by diesel from locomotives and lubricant oil from the maintenance of railway turnout. Currently the limitary disposal methods can be used because of high toxicity of waste wooden sleeper. Therefore the preliminary study on thermal-extraction of contaminants such as creosote, diesel and lubricant oil from waste wooden sleeper was conducted and the effects of factors were investigated.

In railway, Ballast plays an essential role as intermedium in transmitting train load to subgrade safely. Gyoung-Bu HSL 1st phase consists of ballasted track except for over 5km long tunnels. Ballast track occurred track irregularity by train loads and requires periodic maintenance work. However, Repetitive train operation and tamping work cause to accelerate track irregularity and ballast deterioration such as abrasion and crushing. For these reason, Track irregularity areas had occurred ballast cleaning work to improve track quality. However, for the train to run safety, ballast cleaner working area needs train speed reduction and track stabilization work due to ballast relaxation and initial settlement. In this study, according to train speed-up and cumulative traffic tonnage, we measured and analyzed the track settlement and acceleration of sleepers to evaluate of track stabilization in order to keep the ballast condition stable after cleaning work.

Considerable longitudinal rail forces and displacements may develop in continuous welded rail (CWR) track on long-span bridges due to temperature variations. The track stability may be disturbed due to excessive relative displacements between the sleepers and ballast bed and the accompanied reduction in frictional resistance. For high-speed tracks, however, solving these problems by installing rail expansion devices in the track is not an attractive solution as these devices may cause a local disturbance of the vertical track stiffness and track geometry which will require intensive maintenance. With reference to temperature, two actions are considered by the bridge loading standards, the uniform variation in the rail and deck temperature and the temperature gradient in deck. Generally, the effect of temperature gradient has been disregarded in the interaction analysis. This paper mainly deals with the effect of temperature gradient on the track-bridge interaction with respect to the support reaction, rail stresses and stability. The study presented in this paper was not mentioned in the related codes so far.
