  • 본 연구에서는 유한요소 해석 방법을 이용하여 척추 퇴행성 질환을 가진 환자의 관절 불안정 모델을 개발 및 검증하였다. 관절 불안정 모델은 정상요추 유한요소 모델의 인대 및 협부를 결손시켜 개발하였으며, 요추 유한요소 모델의 제 5 요추체를 완전히 고정시키고 추적 경로 방향의 400 N의 압축력을 가한 상태에서 10 Nm의 굴곡과 신전 모멘트를 가하였다. 굽힘 및 신전 시 관절 불안정 모델들의 회전량이 정상의 요추 모델의 회전량에 비하여 크게 나타났다. 또한 굽힘 시 관절 불안정 모델들의 전위거리가 정상에 비하여 크게 나타났다. 본 연구의 결과는 척추 불안정성의 원인 및 기전의 이해뿐만 아니라 다양한 인체정보 콘텐츠 분야에 널리 활용될 수 있을 것으로 생각된다.

  • A new control method for a redundant manipulator is developed using a local optimal torque and null space joint velocity. By solving the dynamic control equations of the system, the local optimal torque is obtained. If only the local optimal torque is used for controlling the robot there is a possibility that the system is unstable. To eliminate the characteristics of instability during the movements, the control law with a null space concept is used. The new method is applied to the 3-DOF planar manipulator. The simulation results show the effectiveness of the proposed algorithm.

  • Traumatic anterior dislocation of the shoulder is one of the most common directions of instability following a traumatic event. Although the incidence of shoulder dislocation is similar between young and elderly patients, most studies have traditionally focused on young patients due to relatively high rates of recurrent dislocations in this population. However, shoulder dislocations in older patients also require careful evaluation and treatment selection because they can lead to persistent pain and disability due to rotator cuff tears and nerve injuries. This article provides an overview of the nature and pathology of acute primary anterior shoulder dislocation, widely accepted management modalities, and differences in treatment for young and elderly patients.

  • The natural history of the anterior cruciate ligament(ACL)-deficient knee remains controversial. although numerous investigation have tried to ascertain the course that the knee would follow once the ACL has lost functional integrity. An extensive review of the literature performed according to symptoms. physical examinations, associated surrounding tissue injuries. returns to activity level and radiological changes in the knee joint. An active individual with a non-functioning ACL was susceptible to injury to the menisci and deteriorate the articular cartilage, followed radiographic changes. An activity levels in general also changed after injury. The most common symptom was pain. But instability varied in these individuals. Conclusively we believe that all these factors will eventually, if not initially, result in a symptomatic knee. which will result in significant limitations to the individual's desired level. So we recommend an aggressive approach in person who desired to return to a relatively active life style in young person as well as in middle aged individuals who have significant symptomatic ACL deficient knee.

  • In this study, we propose a new method for simulating water responding to human motion. Motion data obtained from motion-capture devices are represented as a jointed skeleton, which interacts with the velocity field in the water simulation. To integrate the motion data into the water simulation space, it is necessary to establish a mapping relationship between two fields with different properties. However, there can be severe numerical instability if the mapping breaks down, with the realism of the human-water interaction being adversely affected. To address this problem, our method extends the joint velocity mapped to each grid point to neighboring nodes. We refine these extended velocities to enable increased robustness in the water solver. Our experimental results demonstrate that water animation can be made to respond to human motions such as walking and jumping.

  • Coracoclavicular ligament is main restraint to superior instability of the distal clavicle. Coracoacromial ligament, extensor tendon of toe, palmaris longus tendon, and Dacron tape have been used to reconstruct coracoclavicular ligament. We used semitedinosus tendon to reconstruct coracoclavicular ligament. The semitendinosus tendon was harvested as a usual fashion. After the distal clavicle and coracoid process were exposed, a hole of six millimeter diameter was made on the center of whole thickness of the distal clavicle. A malleolar screw was fixed from distal clavicle to coracoid process to maintain the reduced position of the acromioclavicular joint. The leading suture of tendon graft was passed through the hole of the distal clavicle and looped under the coracoid process. After leading portion of ten­don graft was looped over the clavicle, sutures were made between each end of the tendon graft with nonabsorbable suture materials.

  • It is well known that the essential pathology in traumatic anterior dislocation of the shoulder is the avulsion of the glenohumeral ligament complex from the glenoid rim, However, there were some reports that the avulsion can occur from the humeral attachment site. We have experienced a 42-year-old man who had complained of persistent shoul­der pain after traffic accident and showed the instability on physical examination. The MR arthrogram and arthro­scopic surgery revealed the avulsion of glenohumeral ligament from the humeral attachment site. We repaired the lesion using the suture anchor through the anterior axillary approach and had a good result after 1 year.

  • This paper deals with the real-time stable walking for a humanoid robot, ISHURO-II, on uneven terrain. A humanoid robot necessitates achieving posture stabilization since it has basic problems such as structural instability. In this paper, a stabilization algorithm is proposed using the ground reaction forces, which are measured using FSR (Force Sensing Resistor) sensors during walking, and the ground conditions are estimated from these data. From this information the robot selects the proper motion pattern and overcomes ground irregularities effectively. In order to generate the proper reaction under the various ground situations, a fuzzy algorithm is applied in finding the proper angle of the joint. The performance of the proposed algorithm is verified by simulation and walking experiments on a 24-DOFs humanoid robot, ISHURO-II.

  • It is not yet possible to solve the optimal number of neurons in hidden layer at neural networks. However, it has been proposed and proved by experiments that there is a limit in increasing the number of neuron in hidden layer, because too much incrememt will cause instability,local minima and large error. This paper proposes a module neural controller with pattern recognition ability to solve the above trade-off problems and to obtain fast learning convergence speed. The proposed neural controller is composed of several module having Multi-layer Perrceptron(MLP). Each module have the less neurons in hidden layer, because it learns only input patterns having a similar learning directions. Experiments with six joint robot manipulator have shown the effectiveness and the feasibility of the proposed the parallel module neural controller with pattern recognition perceptron.

  • Purpose: This study was performed to evaluate the diagnostic usefulness of ankle stress radiograph for evaluation of chronic lateral ankle instability. Materials and Methods: Among patients undergoing the modified-Brostrom procedure, 42 cases with complete rupture of the anterior talofibular ligament were enrolled in this study. Sixty Korean adults (120 cases) were recruited as the control group. Radiologic measurement of talar tilt and anterior talar translation was performed through stress radiographs using Telos device. We obtained the normal range of Korean adults, and used as a standard value for judgment of mechanical instability. We analyzed the sensitivity, specificity, positive and negative prediction value of ankle stress radiograph. Results: On ankle stress radiograph, normal range of talar tilt angle and anterior talar translation was below $8.3^{\circ}$, below 7.6mm. Talar tilt angle on varus stress radiograph showed 57% of sensitivity, 97% of specificity, 89% of positive and 86% of negative prediction value. Anterior talar translation on anterior drawer stress radiograph showed 69% of sensitivity, 97% of specificity, 91% of positive and 90% of negative prediction value. Conclusion: Ankle stress radiograph had a good specificity, positive and negative prediction value for the evaluation of mechanical instability. However it underestimated the mechanical instability of ankle joint. It must be remembered that normal stress radiograph does not exclude ankle instability.
