Purpose : The purpose of this study was to demonstrate the effects of lumbar stabilization exercise on static and dynamic balance performance with unstable supporting surface and an even surface. Methods : The subjects of this experimental study were 30 patients among hospitalized stroke patients. They were randomly divided into two groups: unstable supporting surface group(USS; n=15) and an even surface group(ES; n=15). The lumbar stabilization exercise program for patients in two groups went through 40 minute exercise sessions three times a week for 8 weeks. To analyze the effects of a variety of supporting surface, Functional reaching test(FRT), Berg's balance scale(BBS), and Overall stability index(static balance) were measured before and after the exercise. The paired t-test was used to compare mean differences between before and after exercis and the independent t-test was used to compare mean differences between groups. Results : After 8 weeks exercise program, there were significant differences between before and after exercise in FRT, BBS, and static balance. But there were not significant differences in balance between two groups. Conclusion : This study suggest that lumbar stabilization exercise on unstable supporting surface and an even surface can improve FRT, BBS, and a static balance.

Background: The aim of this study was to compare the effects of squat training on an unstable support surface with different knee flexion angles on the balance ability of normal adults balance ability. Methods: 41 university students in their 20s attending N University in Cheonan, Chungcheongnam-do were divided into a 45-degree knee-bending squat training group and a 90-degree knee-bending squat training group. The groups trained on an unstable support surface 20 minutes per day, 3 times a week, for a total of 4 weeks. Results: Changes in static balance ability were not significant within and between the groups for both the sway distance and sway area in the eyes open and eyes closed states (p<.05). The changes in dynamic balance ability were significant in the forward, leftward, and rightward angles in both groups at the limit of stability (p<.05), but not significant in the backward angle (p>.05), and the comparison between groups was not significant (p>.05). Conclusion: No significant difference between static balance-related variables within and between the groups was found. Significant changes in dynamic balance-related variables within the groups were found but not between the groups. Therefore, in future studies, it is considered necessary to study various ages and differentiated intervention periods, such as young adults and the population of elderly people, with sufficient intervention periods to affect balance ability.

PURPOSE: The aim of the present study was to determine whether high frequency repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation (rTMS) can improve balance ability in acute stage stroke patients. METHODS: The study was conducted on 30 subjects diagnosed with hemiparesis caused by stroke. The experimental group consisted of 15 patients that underwent rTMS for 15 mins and the control group consisted of 15 patients that underwent sham rTMS (for 15 minutes). A 70-mm figure 8 coil and a Magstim Rapid stimulator was used in both groups. Patients in the experimental group received 10 Hz rTMS applied to the hotspot in the lesioned hemisphere in 10-second trains with 50-second intervals between trains, for 15 minutes (total 2,000 pulses). Both groups received conventional physical therapy for 30 minutes a day, 5 days a week, for 4 weeks. Static balance ability analysis was performed using the Gaitview system to measure pressure rate, postural sway, and total pressure, and dynamic balance ability analysis was performed to measure pressure variables using a balance system. RESULTS: A significant difference was observed in post-training gains for pressure rate, total pressure in static balance, and overall stability index in dynamic balance between the experimental group and the control group (p<.05). CONCLUSION: The results of this study indicate that high frequency rTMS may be beneficial for improving static and dynamic balance recovery in acute stroke patients.

4차 산업혁명의 핵심 동인으로서 Software(이하 SW)의 중요성이 더욱 커짐에 따라, 정부는 국가 경쟁력 강화를 위해 SW R&D 투자를 늘리고 SW 관련 정책을 지속적으로 수립하고 있다. 하지만 SW 연구개발에 대한 정부의 지속적인 투자에 비해, SW 연구개발 투자성과에 대한 체계적 분석은 부족한 실정이다. 본 연구에서는 Data Envelopment Analysis(DEA) 기법을 이용하여 SW 국가연구개발 사업의 분야별 효율성을 분석하였다. 2008년~2018년까지 정보통신산업진흥원(NIPA)에서 수행된 1,463개 과제정보를 토대로 효율성을 정태적/동태적 관점에서 측정하였다. 정태적 관점의 규모효율성 측정을 통해 비효율성 원인을 규모와 기술문제로 분석하였다. DEA/Window 모형을 이용한 동태적 효율성 분석 결과를 제시하고 효율성-안정성 매트릭스를 이용해 분야별 대응 모델을 제시하였다. 본 연구는 SW 국가연구 개발사업 전체를 대상으로 효율성 분석을 수행했다는 점에 의의가 있으며, 정태적/동태적 효율성 분석결과는 향후 SW 국가연구개발사업 기획 시 기초자료로 활용이 가능할 것으로 기대된다.

In general, the installation of offshore wind turbine have been carried out by a jack-up barge or wind turbine installation vessel. In case of using jack-up barge, an additional barge is required to transport offshore wind turbines. During the transportation, barge is affected by environmental conditions such as wave, wind etc. So, it is important to secure the static and dynamic stability of the barge. In this study, fundamental research was performed to evaluate the stability of barge due to use the guide frame. The analysis for static stability of barge was performed under the two loading conditions with or without wave and those results were evaluated according to the Ministry of Oceans and Fisheries rules. Also motion analysis was performed under the ITTC wave spectrum using buoy data and evaluated based on NORDFORSK guideline by using commercial software Maxsurf Motions.

장대 아치교 설계 시 시공단계와 완성단계에서 발생할 수 있는 문제에 대하여 검토하고 있으나 케이블 손상에 대한 구조안전성 평가는 매우 미흡한 실정이다. 따라서 본 연구는 공용 중 충돌사고로 인한 행어 파단 시 교량의 구조안전성을 분석하는 것을 연구 목적으로 한다. 이를 위하여 행어 파단에 따른 하중을 충격함수로 이상화하여 동적 해석을 수행하였다. 행어가 파단 되었을 경우 각 행어의 최대 장력은 파단된 행어와 인접한 행어에서 발생한 것으로 나타났으며 정적 하중보다 동적 하중에서 크게 나타났다. 그러므로 장대 아치교의 구조안전성을 확보하기 위해 행어 파단에 따른 충격하중을 동적 하중으로 고려한 해석이 필요하다. 또한 본 연구의 해석 방법 및 결과는 이후 아치교 설계 시 참고자료로 활용될 수 있다.

The flutter and buckling analysis of a beam structure subjected to a static follower force is completely studied in the paper. The beam is fixed in the transverse direction and constrained by a rotational spring at one end, and by a translational spring and a rotational spring at the other end. The co-existence of flutter and buckling in this beam due to the presence of the follower force is an interesting and important phenomenon. The results from this theoretical analysis will be useful for the stability design of structures in engineering applications, such as the potential of flutter control of aircrafts by smart materials. The transition-curve surface for differentiating the two distinct instability regions of the beam is first obtained with respect to the variations of the stiffness of the springs at the two ends. Second, the capacity of the follower force is derived for flutter and buckling of the beam as a function of the stiffness of the springs by observing the variation of the first two frequencies obtained from dynamic analysis of the beam. The research in the paper may be used as a benchmark for the flutter and buckling analysis of beams.

Concrete-to-concrete bedding planes (CCBP) are observed from time to time due to the multistep hardening process of the concrete materials. In this paper, a series of direct/cyclic shear tests are performed on CCBP under static and dynamic normal load conditions to study the frictional behavior effect by the shear velocities, normal impact frequencies, horizontal shear frequencies, normal impact force amplitudes, horizontal shear displacement amplitudes and normal load levels. According to the experimental results, apparent friction coefficient k ($k=F_{Shear}/F_{Normal}$) shows different patterns under static and dynamic load conditions at the stable shear stage. k is nearly constant in direct shear tests under constant normal load conditions (DCNL), while it is cyclically changing with nearly constant peak value and valley value for the direct shear tests under dynamic normal load conditions (DDNL), where k increases with decreasing normal force and decreases with increasing normal force. Shear velocity has little influence on peak values of k for the DCNL tests, but increasing shear velocity leads to increasing valley values of k for DDNL tests. It is also found that, the valley values of k ascend with decreasing impact normal force amplitude in DDNL tests. The changing pattern of k for the cyclic shear tests under constant and dynamic normal load conditions (CCNL and CDNL tests) are similar, but the peak value of k is smaller in CDNL tests than that in CCNL tests. Normal load levels, shear displacement amplitudes, vertical impact frequencies, horizontal shear frequencies and normal impact force amplitudes have little influence on the changing pattern of k for the cyclic shear tests. The tests of this study provide useful data in understanding the frictional behavior of the CCBP under distinct loadings, and these findings are very important for analyzing the stability of the jointed geotechnical structures under complicated in situ stress conditions.

This paper deals with the early development of the Anuloid, an innovative disk-shaped VTOL aircraft. The Anuloid concept is based on the following three main features: the use of a ducted fan powered by a turboshaft for the lift production to take-off and fly; the Coanda effect that is developed through the circular internal duct and the bottom portion of the aircraft to provide further lift and control capabilities; the adoption of a system of ducted fixed and swiveling radial and circumferential vanes for the anti-torque mechanism and the flight control. The early studies have been focused on the CFD analysis of the Coanda effect and of the control vanes; the flyability analysis of the aircraft in terms of static performances and static and dynamic stability; the preliminary structural design of the aircraft. The results show that the Coanda effect is stable in most of the flight phases, vertical flight has satisfactory flyability qualities, whereas horizontal flight shows dynamic instability, requiring the development of an automatic control system.
