  • The Arrow system, an Israeli missile defense system, was developed through a strategic partnership between the United States and Israel. Israel's cooperation with the Strategic Defense Initiative(SDI) research of the Reagan administration in the United States began in 1986 with the development of a tactical ballistic missile defense system and two increasingly improvements to Arrow 3. It could be a moral lessen to developing Korean Ballistic Missile Defense System because Israel's Geopolitical environment is similar to Korean peninsula.

  • The performance of arrow from a manufacturing process depends on arrow's trajectory(archer's paradox) and intensity of an impact points. Especially, when conducting a shooting experiment over and over in the same experiment condition, the intensity of impact point is an objective standard to judge the performance of the arrow. However, the analysis method for the impact point is not enough, a previous research of the arrow's performance has been focused on a skill to optimize a manufacturing variables(feathers of an arrow, barb of an arrow, arrow's shaft, weight, external diameter, spine). In this paper, We propose measurement system of arrow's impact point with Mamdani fuzzy inference system and similarity of polygon for automation of impact point's measurement. Measuring the impact point data of the arrow moving with a high speed(approximately 275km/h) by using line laser and photo diode array, then the measured data are mapped to arrow's impact point with fuzzy inference and similarity of polygon.

  • In order to evaluate the performance of arrow that manufactures through production process, it is used that personal experiences such as hunters who have been using bow and arrow for a long time, technicians who produces leisure and sports equipment, and experts related with this industries. Also, the intensity of arrow's impact point which obtains from repeated shooting experiments is an important indicator for evaluating the performance of arrow. There are some ongoing researches for evaluating performance of arrow using intensity of the arrow's impact point and the arrow's flying image that obtained from high-speed camera. However, the research that deals with mutual relation between distribution of the arrow's impact point and characteristics of the arrow (length, weight, spine, overlap, straightness) is not enough. Therefore, this paper suggests both the system that could describes the distribution of the arrow's impact point into numerical representation and the correlation model between characteristics of arrow and impact points. The inputs of the model are characteristics of arrow (spine, straightness). And the output is MAD (mean absolute distance) of triangular shaped coordinates that could be obtained from 3 times repeated shooting by changing knock degree 120. The input-output data is collected for learning the correlation model, and ANN (artificial neural network) is used for implementing the model.

  • The point of impact, the shot group, and the flight traces depend on the combination of unique features which decide moving traces of the arrow (paradox of the archer, length of the arrow shaft, weight, angle of the feather, and spline of the arrow shaft). The more dense the impact points in the shot group and the earlier elimination of paradox of the archer, the higher assessment is given for the product. However, there is no way to objectively assess the efficiency and quality of the arrow, and there is no numeric data to be used as the basis for comparison with other products. Although capturing the images of flying arrow using a high-speed motion picture camera is possible, we are limited to observation from specific view angle only. Hence, the criteria for efficiency and quality assessment are mostly based on subjective opinions of experts or hunters, or review on consumers' remarks. In this paper, we propose a hardware composition that are based on three detection frames consisting of line lasers and photo diode arrays without the high-speed motion picture camera. Predicated on measured coordinates data, a nobel method for the archer's paradox measurement, a key parameter that determine the arrow's trajectory, and corresponding numerical analysis model is proposed.

  • This is a report on a aseptic synovitis diagnosed and treated arthroscopically following the meniscal repair using biodegradable Meniscus Arrow$^{(R)}$(Bionix Inc, Malvern, USA). Histological examination revealed chronic nonspecific synovitis and birefringent material. Immunohistochemical tests were positive in lysozyme, ${\alpha}$-1-antitrypsin and ${\alpha}$-1-antichymotrypsin. The patient was received arthroscopic synovectomy, and then pain and swelling of the knee joint was relieved. Range of motion was improved to full range. As far as we know, this is the first case of aseptic synovitis after meniscal repair using biodegradable Meniscus Arrow$^{(R)}$.

  • Purpose : To evaluate the results and usefulness of meniscal repair using meniscal arrows with ACL reconstruction. Material and Methods : Among cases of the simultaneous meniscal arrow fixation and ACL recontruction performed between May, 1997 and September, 2000, 17 cases could be evaluated. The average follow-up were 18.5 months. Twelve cases were medial meniscus, 5 cases, lateral meniscus. All cases were longitudinal tear. Meniscal tear were seen at red-red zone in 13 cases, red-white zone in 5 cases. The results were analyzed by pain, joint line tenderness, locking, McMurray test, the Marshall knee scoring scale and complications. Results : Postoperatively two patients had mild joint line tenderness without pain on joint motion or weight bearing. No patient had locking or positive McMurray test. At last follow-up, 15 cases $(88\%)$ were 'excellent' or 'good' according to the Marshall knee score scale. There were two complications which are soft tissue irritation sign on active knee motion and a femoral chondral injury due to protruded T-shaped head of meniscus arrow. Conclusion : Meniscus arrow can be one of the options in repairing the associated meniscus tear, especially the posterior horn of medial meniscus, during ACL reconstruction. However, surgeons using meniscus arrow should be aware of its potential complications such as pain due to soft tissue irritation and chondral damage of the femoral condyle.

  • Purpose : The purpose of this paper is to analyze the clinical results after meniscal repair using meniscal arrow. Materials and Methods : Between May 1997 and Aug 1998, we repaired 22 tom menisci in 22 patients using meniscal arrows. There were nineteen males and three females with an average age of 27 years. There were longitudinal tear in 14 cases, Bucket-handle tear were 7 cases and horizontal tear was in 1 case. In 22 meniscus tears, 16 cases were associated with anterior cruciate ligament tear. Average number of meniscal arrow that was used were 2.5(ranged 1 to 4). Average follow-up period was 14.7 months(ranged 6 to 22 months). We evaluated the clinical results by the Tapper and Hoover's grading system. Results : There were excellent in 16 cases, good in 4 cases and fair in 2 cases on the clinical results. At the last follow up, the range of the motion of the knee joint were average 135 degrees(ranged 125 to 140 degrees). Mean time elapsed for meniscal repair were 25 minutes(ranged 15 to 40 minutes). Conclusion : Meniscal arrow has many advantages such as short operative time, easy fixation technique, and less neurovascular injury. We think that arthroscopic meniscal repair using meniscal arrow is effective treatment method in selected patient who have longitudinal, bucket-handle tear at the posterior hom associated with anterior cruciate ligament tear.

  • Two-dimensional MT (Magneto-Telluric) modeling is performed to verify the validity of difference arrow for GDS(Geomagnetic Depth Sounding) survey. The electromagnetic mutual coupling between the sea and in-land conductor is used as a criterion that judges the validity of difference arrow. In this study, the mutual coupling between them is examined according to the spatial distance between them and the period of magnetic variations. The difference arrow is valid for conductors located at surface which are far from the sea or when the long period is used, but the mutual coupling is weak for buried conductor in all the periods. However, when a conductor extends vertically down to the deep part, the validity of difference arrow is in doubt, since the strong mutual coupling influences up to the long period. Therefore, to remove the known conductor effect such as sea effect from the observed induction arrow, the mutual coupling between them must be examined and the caution must be exercised in interpreting the resultant difference arrow if mutual coupling between them is strong.

  • Apenetrating head injury by an arrow is extremely rare being only two cases reported in the literature. We report a case of 12-year-old boy who presented with an arrow lodged at the posterior fossa through nasal nostril. He was slightly drowsy, but neurologically intact except a sixth nerve palsy in the left eye. Brain CT showed no intracerebral hemorrhage. The arrow was entered through the right nostril and the tip was stucked in the left cere-bello-pontine angle through the sphenoid sinus. We removed the arrow without craniotomy since the tip was verified smooth and no cerebral arteries were in contact with the arrow. The patient recovered well without any significant complications. The sixth nerve palsy resolved completely after six months. The verification of the shape of the offending material, a retrograde removal of the arrow in the direction of its line of trajectory, and an identification of adjacent cerebral arteries seem to be important in the management of this type of injury.
