PURPOSE: The aim of this study was to provide the standard value of the Five Times Sit to Stand Test (FTSST) measurement on the daily life independence of the elderly in Korea and examine the effects of this test on their daily lives. METHODS: This study was conducted on elderly people over 65 years of age living in Gyeongsangbuk-do, Korea. FTSST was performed while sitting position on a chair. The subjects were classified into independent and dependent living groups according to their lifestyle, and their influence was then examined through logistic regression analysis. To determine the usefulness and cut-off value of the FTSST, the analysis was performed using the ROC curve. RESULTS: The elderly were more likely to live in a group rather than independently as the FTSST time increased (p<.05) (OR=1.098). The area of the lower part of the ROC curve was .707, and as the FTSST increased, a subject was more likely to live in a group rather than independently (p<.05). The cut-off value was assigned to the point where both the specificity and sensitivity were at the coordinates. The sensitivity and specificity were .626 and .753, respectively at 15.62 seconds. CONCLUSION: The elderly in Korea are more likely to live a group-dependent lifestyle than live independently; the likelihood of this outcome is increased further for every additional second beyond 15.62 seconds. The loss of independence of daily life could be predicted based on the status of a subject's lower leg strength using the FTSST.

본 연구에서는 지진해일에 의한 원자력발전소의 확률론적 안전성 평가를 위하여 필수적으로 도출해야 하는 지진해일 재해도 곡선을 도출하기 위한 연구를 수행하였다. 1900년도 이후에 기록된 동해안에서의 지진해일 기록과 1900년도 이전에 역사지진기록에서 찾을 수 있는 지진해일 기록을 이용하여 지진해일에 의한 최대파고에 대한 재현주기를 산정하고자 하였다. Power law, upper-truncated power law 그리고 지수함수에 의해서 추세선을 작성하였으며 그 결과를 비교하였다. 동해안에서 발생한 지진해일의 기록이 10건 내외에 불과하므로 기록에 의한 지진해일 재해도 곡선추정 연구에 제한이 있으나 국내에는 지진해일의 재해도곡선 추정에 관한 연구가 전무한 현실이므로 지진해일 확률론적 안전성 평가를 위한 초석을 놓은 것으로 판단된다.

비용과 공기는 수익과 직접적인 상관관계를 갖는 중요한 요소로 성공적인 프로젝트를 위해서는 이들에 대한 정확한 예측이 이루어져야 한다. 현재 최종 공사비와 공기 예측을 목적으로 EVMS(Earned Value Management System)가 범용적으로 활용되고 있지만, 기존에 제시된 공사비 및 공기 예측모텔은 선형적인 예측방식을 사용하기 때문에 예측결과가 부정확하고 시공업체의 성향, 프로젝트의 특성, 진도율에 따른 변화 등을 고려하지 못하는 한계가 있었다. 본 연구에서는 건설산업의 다양한 특성이 반영될 수 있도록 PB-S curve와 다중회귀분석을 이용한 진행단계별 공사비 및 공기의 기울기 예측모델을 제안하고 이를 동해 최종 공사비 및 공기를 예측하고자 한다. 이를 위하여 국내 건설업체로부터 23건의 도로공사 EVMS 자료를 활용하여 공사 진행단계별 기울기 예측을 위한 회귀분석방정식을 도출하고, 활용성을 검증하였다.

상류댐에서의 홍수량에 의한 하류지점에서의 첨두 홍수량과 홍수 도달 시간은 수리학적 홍수추적방법에 의해 계산될 수 있다. 본 연구는 한강 유역의 전구간을 대상으로 시행되었다. 계산된 춤두 홍수량과 댐사이의 홍수도달시간은 상류에서의 방류계속시간과 바류량의 크기에 관련되어 있고 각 댐구간 사이에서 이 관계를 이용하여 다중회기모형을 제안하였다. 댐하류에서의 첨두홍수량은 수위-유량 관계식에 의해서 첨두홍수위로 변환될 수 있다. 그러므로, 제안된 다중회기모형은 상류댐에서의 홍수 방류량과 방류 계속시간에 의한 하류지점에서의 첨두홍수위와 댐구간 사이의 홍수도달시간을 예측하는데 이용될 수 있을 것이다.

Background: The purpose of this study is to assume appropriate outpatient consultation time for each clinical department on the basis of measured outpatient consultation time and satisfaction of outpatient. Methods: We surveyed the feeling and satisfactory outpatient consultation time, satisfaction, revisiting intention and recommendation to others to 1,105 patients of single general hospital in Gyeonggi-do and measured their real outpatient consultation time from October 28 to November 27 in 2013. On the basis of satisfaction, we estimated appropriate outpatient consultation time through area under the receiver operating characteristic curve in logistic regression model. Results: Feeling outpatient consultation time was 5.1 minutess, satisfactory outpatient consultation time which was suggested by patient was 6.3 minutes, and real outpatient consultation time was 4.2 minutes. Department which had longest real outpatient consultation time was infection (7 minutes) and department which had longest satisfactory outpatient consultation time was neurology (9.4 minutes). From the univariate and the multiple linear regression analysis, real outpatient consultation time was longer in pulmonology patient, new patient and afternoon patient, satisfactory outpatient consultation time was longer in infection, neurology, neuropsychiatry, neurosurgery, and rehabilitation patient. Appropriate real outpatient consultation time was suggested as 5.6 minutes which differentiated high and low satisfied patient group. However, we could not assume appropriate outpatient consultation time for each clinical department because the number of patient who had bad satisfaction was too low. Conclusion: To improve patient's satisfaction, we hope outpatient reservation system is operated as each patient's outpatient consultation time is at least 5.6 minutes.

Objective: Persons with chronic stroke fall more often than healthy elderly individuals. The Timed Up and Go test (TUG) is used as a fall prediction tool, but only provides a result for the total measurement time. This study aimed to determine the optimal cut-off values for each of the 6 components of the TUG. Design: Retrospective study. Methods: Thirty persons with chronic stroke participated in the study. TUG evaluation was performed using a wearable miniaturized inertial sensor. Sensitivity, specificity, and predictive values were calculated using the Receiver Operating Characteristic (ROC) curve analysis for the measured values in each section. Optimal values for fall risk classification were determined. Logistic regression analysis was used to investigate the risk of future falls based on TUG. Results: The cut-off values of the 6 sections of the TUG were determined, as follows: sit-to-stand >2.00 seconds (p<0.05), forward gait >4.68 seconds (p<0.05), mid-turn >3.82 seconds (p<0.05), return gait >4.81 seconds (p<0.05), end-turn >2.95 seconds (p<0.05), and stand-to-sit >2.13 seconds (p<0.05). The risk of falling increased by 2.278 times when the mid-turn value was >3.82 seconds (p<0.05). Conclusions: The risk of falls increased by 2.28 times when the value of the mid-turn interval exceeded 3.82 seconds. Therefore, when interpreting TUG results, the predictive accuracy for falls will be higher when the measurement time for each section is analyzed, together with the total time for TUG.

오이, 마늘, 생강, 감자 및 무의 압축특성을 규명하기 위하여 식품물성 측정기로 압축 힘, 거리 및 시간을 측정하고 이들의 상관관계를 살펴보았다. 힘-거리 및 거리-시간 곡선은 비교적 간단한 형태를 나타냈고 변곡점들이 잘 나타나지 않았다. 파괴점까지의 시간은 감자가 압축속도 60mm/min에서 11.79, 압축속도 120mm/min에서 6.16초로 가장 길었다. 마늘은 각각 9.65 및 4.55초로 적게 소요되었는데 이는 시료의 압축강도에 따른 차이 때문으로 생각된다. 파괴힘은 무와 감자는 압축속도별로 16.64∼20.00N으로 가장 컸으며, 파괴시에 시료는 탐침 밑에 뭉개어지는 거동을 보였다. 압축시험시 파괴점까지의 힘-시간과 거리-시간에 대한 회귀분석 결과 상관계수 값이 0.96이상이었으며, 시료간의 차이는 작았다. 힘-시간 곡선의 기울기는 오이와 마늘이 1.772∼3.385로 가장 켰으며, 감자가 각각 1.743 및 3.338로 작았으며, 거리-시간 곡선의 기울기와는 반비례 관계를 나타냈다.

In the case of the remediation studies, push pull test is a more time and cost effective mettled than multi-well tracer test. It also gives Just as much or more information than the traditionally used methods. But the data analysis for the hydraulic parameters, there have been some defections such as underestimation of dispersivity, requirement for effective porosity, and calculation of recovery of center of mass to estimate linear velocity. In this research, Weibull distribution function is proposed to estimate the center of mass of breakthrough curve for Push pull test. The hydraulic parameter estimation using Weibull function showed more exact values of center of mass than those of exponential regression for field test data.

We explored how changes in blood vessel compliance affected the systolic rise time (SRT) of the maximum blood pressure (BP) peak wave and the diastolic fall time (DFT) of the minimal BP peak wave, compared to photoplethysmograpic (PPG) parameters, using a two-compartment, second-order, arterial Windkessel model. We employed earlier two-compartment Windkessel models and the components thereof to construct equivalent blood vessel circuits, and reproduced BP waveforms using PSpice technology. The SRT and DFT values were obtained via circuit simulation, considering variations in compliance (the dominant influence on blood vessel parameters attributable to BP changes). And then performed regression analysis to identify how compliance affected the SRT and DFT. We compared the SRTs and DFTs of BP waves to the PPG values by reference to BP changes in each subject. We confirmed that the time-shift propensities of BP waves and the PPG data were highly consistent. However, the time shifts differed significantly among subjects. These simulation and experimental results allowed us to construct an initial trend curve of individual BP peak time (measured via wrist PPG evaluations at three arm positions) that facilitated accurate individual BP estimations.

This paper describes a novel quantitative discomfort evaluation method based on motion data and its application to discomfort analysis of ingress/egress motions for cars. To develop the discomfort evaluation model, we introduced the discomfort regression curve and the range of motion for each degree-of-freedom of the joints of a whole human body. The maximum discomfort value for the joints at a specific time is selected to represent the discomfort value of the whole body at the time. The results of the experiments and questionnaires support the claim that our discomfort measure matches experimental subjective discomfort levels.
