In this paper, various structures of the healthcare smart clothing for real-time measurement of vital sign were suggested. The wearing efficiency was evaluated to find out the best ergonomic clothing in the suggested design. The supplementary effects of the clothing components (princess line, double fabric, cushion) on the stable and tight positioning of sensors to the body were evaluated with wear test. Five experimental clothing for male subject were made with closely-fitted shape and they included two representative structure: one was the integrated type of inner and outer garments and the other was the separated type with two garments. Eight subjects in their twenties were participated in the wear test to evaluate the wearing efficiency of experimental clothing. As results, the clothing structure of the separated garments with the inner and the outer shells were evaluated as more efficient and comfortable. However, the effects of clothing components on the light positioning of the sensors to the body surface were not differentiated each other in the subjective evaluation.

Investigators who study on combustion in the cylinders of reciprocating piston type internal combustion engines have been encountered embarrassments due to the difficulties of adjusting specific parameter without interfacing other parameters such as cylinder wall temperature composition of gas in the cylinder existence of cylinder lubricant etc. Rapid compression-expansion machine the position and speed of piston of which are able to be controlled by means of a system controlled electrically and speed of piston of which are able to be controlled by means of a system controlled electrically and actuated hydraulically could be utilized as one of the most preferable countermeasures against those difficulties. Several units of rapid compression-expansion machines were developed but the speed up of frequency of piston movement still is the problem to be improved to cope with actual speed of internal combustion engines. Authors designed and manufactured a new rapid compression-expansion machine electrically controlled hydraulically actuated and computer programed and then examined the performance of one. Results of a set of experiments revealed acquirements of certain improvement of frequency of piston movement preserving the stability of system response and reproducing accurate compression ratio of cylinder those are the key function for the in-cylinder combustion experiments of internal combustion engines.

Purpose: The purpose of this study was to analyze the effects of a balance training program using the TARGET Balance Trainer(TBT), which utilizes a visual target, on the balancing ability of normal, healthy individuals. Methods: Twelve healthy female students with an average of 20.7 years(SD=0.25), were participated in this study. They were randomly divided into two groups(6 subjects in each group); experimental group, control group. The experimental group underwent a 3-week training program using the TBT, while the control group trained using only a dynamic air cushion(DAC). Results: Compared to those who trained using only the DAC, participants who trained with the TBT had a smaller difference between the weights distributed(N) to their left and right foot while normal standing with their eyes open. The TBT group also showed a smaller discrepancy between the weights distributed(N) to their left and right sides while standing on one leg with their eyes open, and also with their eyes closed by eye band. Conclusions: TBT is effective to reduce the degree of weight shifting between left and right side in each group. This study is expected to provide a model for future clinical studies.

Until recently, almost all ETFE film structures that have been erected is the cushion type because there are problems at lower allowable strength under elastic range and viscosity behaviour such as creep and relaxation of ETFE films under long-term stresses. But the number of tension type structures is currently increasing. This paper proposes the stretch fabrication of ETFE film to verify the applicability of ETFE films to tensile membrane structures. First of all, to investigate the possibility of application on tensile membrane structures, the stretch fabrication test is carried out, and it is verified that it is possible to increase the yield strength of the film membrane structures. After simulating the experiment also carries out an analytical investigation, and the effectiveness of the elasto-plastic analysis considering the viscous behavior of the film is investigated. Finally, post-aging tension measurement is conducted at the experimental facilities, and the viscosity behavior resulting from relaxation is investigated with respect to tensile membrane structures.

The purpose of this study was to develop the pattern of scuba diving suits for local men in their thirties by using 3D body-scanned data. It is widely acknowledged that draping method is more suitable than flat pattern for body shape as most scuba diving suits in the market are designed to fit the body tightly in a single piece with sleeves and legs. A dummy for this study was made based on men's standard clothing sizes in 30's which was derived from data of 2004 Size Korea. Accordingly, the basic body block was built upon through draping method. Next, a scuba diving suit was made from neoprene, followed by fit and the clothing pressure tests in order to evaluate the diving suit's functionality and comfort. The results of the fit test had high points of 4.33 in majority parts except armhole and crotch ones. In comparison of clothing pressure between wearer and dummy, the clothing pressure of wearer was indicated relatively low in most parts other than armhole and knee, resulting from cushion function of skin and muscle and high stretch of fabric.

The vacuum preloading method has been used in many countries for ground improvement and land reclamation works. A sand cushion is required as a horizontal drainage channel for conventional vacuum preloading. In terms of the dredged-fill foundation soil, the treatment effect of the conventional vacuum preloading method is poor, particularly in Tianjin, China, where a shortage of sand exists. To solve this problem, straight-line vacuum preloading without sand is widely adopted in engineering practice to improve the foundation soil. Based on the engineering properties of dredged fill in Lingang City, Tianjin, this paper presents field instrumentation in five sections and analyzes the effect of a prefabricated vertical drain (PVD) layout and a vacuum pumping method on the soft soil ground treatment. Through the arrangement of pore water pressure gauges, settlement marks and vane shear tests, the settlement, pore water pressure and subsoil bearing capacity are analyzed to evaluate the effect of the ground treatment. This study demonstrates that straight-line vacuum preloading without sand can be suitable for areas with a high water content. Furthermore, the consolidation settlement and consolidation degree system is developed based on the grey model to predict the consolidation settlement and consolidation degree under vacuum preloading; the validity of the system is also verified.

This study has been conducted to identify and quantify the emissions of Volatile Organic Compounds (VOCs) from a new carpet. The carpet sample consists of polypropylene cushion and latex backing. The VOCs have been sampled on sorbent tubes and analyzed by thermal desorption unit and GC/MSD. For over 240 hours, concentration of VOCs has been measured in a small chamber made of stainless steel. With the measured data, emission factor and mass balance have been considered. The experiments have been conducted in accordance with ASTM D5116-97. The carpet has emitted a variety of VOCs, but in this study, 7 VOCs compounds have been considered： chlorobenzene, ethylbenzene, styrene, isopropylbenzene, bromobenzene, 2-chlorotoluene, and 1,2,3-trimethylbenzene. The results show that the concentrations of VOCs and the emission factors have exponentially decayed from relatively high level to low level with time. The gradients of the concentration of VOCs and emission factors are different for various components. It is found that styrene, 2-chlorotoluene are emitted more than others with higher concentrations.
