In order to obtain the basic data for diagnosis of occlusion the author investigated the occlusal sounds produced by mandibular closing movement from rest position to centric occlusion by using the Korotkoff sounds microphone electrodes and physiograph for Korean 20S without TMJ problems. And the author analyzed the correlation of the occlusal sounds with height, body weight, mandibular closing movement distance, maxillary sinus size and masseter muscle activities relating to the production of occlusal sounds. The obtained results were as follows : 1. The occlusal sounds prouduced by mandibular closing movements from rest position to centric occlusion were ranged from 3.08mV to 52.00mV, their maen value 19.07mV in right side, and ranged from 2.41mV to 18.33mV, their mean value 9.19mV in left side in group of Angel's class I occlusion subjects having right habitual side of mastication. 2. In general the occlusal sounds in the habitual side of mastication were greater than those in the opposite side. 3. The correlations of the occlusal sounds with height and maxillary sinus size were not significant. 4. The correaltions of the occlusal sounds with body weight, mandibular closing movement distance and masster muscle activities were significant.

This paper investgated on fabrication process and tolerance of resistance body with a uniform thickness formed by the process of cavity type on organic substrate for application of embedded resistor. To improve the tolerance of resistance value according to a position of PCB cause by conventional screen printing, we introduced the process of cavity type from organic substrate. A resistor with a desired shape and volume was precisely formed by the process of cavity using a resistor paste and screen printing. This method can increase PCB's productivity by shortening its production time because process conditions of a screen prining device can be set quickly without any affection on its position accuracy.

This paper presents a real-time motion restoration system for people who need remedial exercise of musculoskeletal based on Inverse Kinematics. A new approach is suggested to recognize a gesture based on restored human motion which is calculated the 3D positions of intermediate joints using 3D positions of body features estimated from images. For generating the 3D candidate positions of intermediate joints which cannot be extracted from images, we apply an Inverse Kinematics theory to compute the target position of intermediate joints. And we can reduce the number of candidate positions by applying the various physical constraints of body. Finally, we can generate the more accurate final position using the Kalman filter for a motion tracking and the relationship between the previous frame information and the candidate positions. The system provide motion information which are rotation angle and height in real-time, therefore the rehabilitation exercises can be performed based on the information and figured out proper exercise for individual status.

Quiescent filaments are bigger, more stable, and longer lived than active region filaments. So, the shape of a quiescent filament changes little during its lifetime and a fast motion of plasma rarely occurs. But when it is dynamically influenced by external phenomena, a rapid motion of plasma may temporarily occur. By analyzing the motion of plasma we can infer some of the magnetic structure permeating such an excited quiescent filament. We analyzed the H$\alpha$ images of a quiescent filament in the northern hemisphere that was observed at Big Bear Solar Observatory on 2004 August 2, and found that: 1) the filament was excited by a flare that occurred in a remote active region located in the southern hemisphere, 2) By this excitation, a part of the filament moved vertically upward and horizontally out of main body, and then it stayed there without much motion. Then after it moved vertically downward and horizontally to the main body, 3) the final position of plasma, however, was not the same as the initial position, being about 14Mm above it. We suggest that the filament was initially in a more or less static equilibrium. The excitation of the filament broke the initial equilibrium, and then brought about a new one that is different from the original one. Since the filament should have magnetic field, it is likely that both the equilibria may have been maintained by diplike magnetic structures. Furthermore, the transition from one equilibrium to another as we inferred should have accompanied a permanent change of magnetic configuration as well.

The study of fish robot is a main subject that are related with the propulsive force comparison using a varying amplitude and frequency for body and tail motion trajectory, and the quick turn using a proper trajectory function. In this study, when a fish robot thrusts forward, feedback control is difficult to apply for a fish robot, because body and tail joints as a sine wave are rolled. Therefore, we detect the virtual position based on the path of the fish robot, define the angle errors using the detected position and the look-ahead point on the given path, and design a controller to track given path. We have found that the proposed method is useful through the computer simulations.

The purpose of this study is understanding modern woman's various aesthetic values and aesthetic sense through observing expression aspects of gender images in the 1990s military fashion and analyzing their aesthetic characteristics and formative factors. Gender images in military fashion have expressed the masculine image of authoritative image and offensive image and offensive image, and the feminine image of conservative image and ostentatious image, sensual image. The authoritative image showed authority and dignity of military uniform by using the classic military uniform's image. This spoke for desire of women to rise their position. Heroism and androcentrism affected as its formation factor. The offensive image destroyed original dignified image of military uniform by that resistance to authoritative image and existing gender identity appeared as way-out form and deconstructive expression. Anti-establishment spirit, resistance to gender identity, and deconstructionism affected as its formation factor. The conservative image expressed military fashion only with slim and soft silhouette, curved line, color, and simple details by magnifying feminity. Fallen man's authority affected as its formation factor. The ostentatious image expressed military fashion with magnifying accessories such as gold button and belt by women who wanted to display ostentatiously their social position and charm. The aspiration for class of elite affected as its formation factor. The sensual image intended to show erotic voluptuous beauty of woman's body by indirect and direct body exposure. Narcissism, desire to show, and sexual amusement affected as its formation factor.

동맥계에서 맥파의 전달속도는 혈관의 긴장도에 따라 결정된다. 동맥혈관의 긴장도는 혈압에 의존적이며 순간적인 혈압의 증가에 따른 혈관긴장도의 변화는 순환기계의 질병을 야기할 수 있다. 본 연구에서는 말초맥파를 이용한 동맥 긴장도 평가 방법의 유용성을 밝히기 위하여 말초맥파 도달시간을 체위에 따라 측정하고, 체위 변화에 따른 정수압 변화와 말초맥파도달시간의 관계를 관찰하였다. 말초맥파도달시간의 측정은 심전도의 QRS파 피크로부터 말초에서 나타나는 광전용적맥파의 최대기울기점까지 시간을 측정하였다. 생체 신호를 아날로그-디지털 변환하여 PC에서 매번 심장주기마다 맥파도달시간을 분석하였으며 결과는 스플라인 보간법을 사용하여 그래프로 결과를 제시하였다. 소프트웨어는 C＋＋을 사용하여 windows 환경에서 운용하였다. 앙아위에서 말초맥파도달시간은 233.38$\pm$1.84 ms이었으며 서있는 자세에서는 226.77$\pm$2.16 ms로 유의하게 감소하였다. 앙아위의 자세에서 손을 수직으로 들어올림에 따라 말초맥파도달시간은 각도에 비례하여 증가하는 특성을 보였다. 이러한 실험결과는 말초맥파도달시간이 동맥계의 일시적인 압력 변화에 매우 민감하게 반응하는 것을 제시하였으며, 고혈압 및 동맥경화가 있는 환자에서 예후를 판단하는 방법으로 유용하게 사용될 것이라 사료된다.

A novel ultra-wideband (UWB) transceiver structure is presented to be used in wireless body area networks (WBANs). In the proposed structure, a data channel and a control channel are combined into a single transmission signal. In the signal, a modulation method mixing pulse position modulation and pulse amplitude modulation is proposed. A mathematical framework calculating the power spectrum density of the proposed pulse-based signal evaluates its coexistence with conventional radio systems. The transceiver structure is discussed, and the receiving performance is investigated in the additive white Gaussian noise channel. It is demonstrated that the proposed scheme is easier to match to the UWB emission mask than conventional UWB systems. The proposed scheme achieves the data rate requirement of WBAN; the logical control channel achieves better receiving performance than the logical data channel, which is useful for controlling and maintaining networks. The proposed scheme is also easy to implement.

This paper describes a location tracking system to guide landing process of an Unmanned Helicopter(UMH) exploiting MIT Cricket nodes. For automatic landing of a UMH, a precise positioning system is indispensable. However, GPS(Global Positioning System) is inadequate for tracking the three dimensional position of a UMH because of large positioning errors. The Cricket systems use Time-Difference-of-Arrival(TDoA) method with ultrasonic and RF(Radio Frequency) signals to measure distances. They operate in passive mode in that a listener attached to a moving device receives distance signals from several beacons located at fixed points on ground. Inevitably, this passive type of implementation causes large disturbances in measuring distances between beacons and the listener due to wind blow from propeller and turbulence of UMH body. To cope with this problem, we proposed active type of implementation for positioning a UMH. In this implementation, a beacon is set up at UMH body and four listeners are located at ground area at least where the UMH will land. A pair of Ultrasonic and RF signals from the beacon arrives at several listeners to calculate the position of the UMH. The distance signals among listeners are synchronized with a counter value appended to each distance signals from the beacon.

Superolateral dislocation of the condyle is a rare mandibular fracture. The treatment goal is to return the dislocated condyle to its original position to recover normal function. This study reports on superolateral dislocation of the condyle with mandibular body fracture. The mandibular body was completely separated, and the medial pole of the condyle head was fractured. The condyle segment was unstable and easily dislocated after reduction. The temporalis muscle on the condyle segment might have affected the dislocation of the condyle. A coronoidectomy was performed to disrupt the function of the temporalis muscle on the condyle segment in order to successfully reduce the dislocated condyle. Coronoidectomy is a simple procedure with minimal complications. We successfully performed a coronoidectomy to reduce the superolateral displaced condyle to its original position to achieve normal function. Coronoidectomy can be effectively used for reduction of superolaterally displaced condyles combined with severe maxilla-mandibular fractures.
