The purpose of this study was to compare the body alignment during standing on level and wedge board. Twenty healthy college students (8 females, 12 males) were evaluated in this study. Diagnostic contourline potographic imaging system (Model JTC-1, Jodang Trading Co.) was used to measure body alignment. Sagittal and frontal plane images were used to analyze the body alignment. The result showed that the cervical and lumbar lordotic curve significantly decreased during standing on wedge board when compared with standing on level. On the other hand, thoracic kyphosis significantly increased during standing on wedge board. There was no significant difference in body alignment according to gender, weight, and height. Clinically, patients with low back pain and severe lordosis may be affected by heel wedge. Further study is needed to identify whether the standing on wedge board can change the body alignment in patients with low back pain and spinal deformity.

Polymide is widely used alignment material of recent commercial LCD panel structure. Generally, polyimide alignment material is classified soluble polyimide type and polyamic acid type with their main bond structure of solution state. specially, compared to polyamic acid alignment layer, soluble polyimide type alignment layer have excellent reliability during long term LCD driving cause of their high imidazation ratio(%), high voltage holding ratio(%) and low ion density. The other side, this type alignment materials has significant DC image stickicng side effect for using in-plane switching mode lcd structure cause of their slow DC discharging property. we applied inorganic salt to usual soluble polyimide type alignment layer and found out this technique had good DC image sticking property without any loss of reliability property in inplane switching LCD cell structure. This approach leads excellent DC image sticking property with maintaining high reliability property this approach confirmed improves an image sticking and a reliability simultaneously from the horizontality aligned LCD mode whose relatively bad image sticking property.

A simple realization of an alignment-free wireless power transmission (WPT) system is presented in this letter. The WPT system consists of a transmitter with three reconfigurable modes corresponding to various controllable magnetic field directions in the azimuthal plane and an algorithm for the optimum mode selection carried by sensing the reflected voltage of the system. Twelve light emitting diodes (LEDs) are used to confirm the on- and off-state of LEDs powered wirelessly by the transmitter at every $15^{\circ}$ of the azimuthal plane. A criterion voltage from the reflected power of the system is found by using the correlation between the reflected voltage and the on- and off-state of the LEDs. Simply by continuous; monitoring of the voltage from the system, the system maintains power to the LEDs. The system is realized by MATLAB/Simulink and a National Instrument data acquisition device (DAQ) board. Measurements using the system show on-state LEDs in the azimuthal plane except at the angles of $60^{\circ}$, $75^{\circ}$, $180^{\circ}$, and $300^{\circ}$.

Cu matrix composites reinforced with chopped carbon fiber (CF), which is cost effective and can be well dispersed, are fabricated using electroless plating and hot pressing, and the effects of content and alignment of CF on the thermal properties of CF/Cu composites are studied. Thermal conductivity of CF/Cu composite increases with CF content in the in-plane direction, but it decreases above 10% CF; this is due to reduction of thermal diffusivity related with phonon scattering by agglomeration of CF. The coefficient of thermal expansion decreases in the in-plane direction and increases in the through-plane direction as the CF content increases. This is because the coefficient of thermal expansion of the long axis of CF is smaller than that of the Cu matrix, and the coefficient of thermal expansion of its short axis is larger than that of the Cu matrix. The thermal conductivity is greatly influenced by the agglomeration of CF in the CF/Cu composite, whereas the coefficient of thermal expansion is more influenced by the alignment of CF than the aggregation of CF.

This paper describes the out-of-plane order of a liquid crystalline(LC) methacrylate copolymer(3) comprised of a methacrylate(1) with a 4-styrylpyridine moiety as the photo-cyclodimerizable group and a benzoate moiety as the mesogenic group in the side chain, and another methacrylate(2) with a 4-(4-methoxyphenyl)benzoate moiety as the mesogenic group. The composition of 1 and 2 units in 3 was estimated to have a molar ratio of 54.2:45.8 by $^{1}H$ NMR spectroscopy. The X-ray diffraction study revealed that the copolymer forms a partial bilayer smectic structure. The copolymer gave rise to a high out-of-plane order parameter of about 0.74 in a wide LC temperature range of $110{\sim}160^{\circ}C$ after linearly polarized, UV light irradiation and subsequent annealing. Moreover, the external reflection IR analysis indicated that excess UV-light irradiation makes the out-of-plane LC structure of the copolymer appear in a higher and wider temperature range.

We have investigated the effect of molecular structure of polymer of rubbed polyimide (PI) films for surface liquid crystal alignment. To obtain surface alignment effect of Polymer molecular structure, we measured the polar (out of plane-tilt) anchoring strength and surface ordering of 5CB on rubbed PI surfaces. We have found that the polar anchoring strength of 5CB is depend on the polymer molecular structure of these unidirectionally rubbed PI surfaces.

We studied the nematic liquid crystal (NLC) alignment capability by the Ion beam (IB) alignment method on a NDLC (Nitrogen doped Diamond Like Carbon) as a C:H thin film, and investigated electro-optical (EO) performances of the IB aligned In plane switching (IPS) cell with NDLC surface. A good LC alignment by IB exposure on a NDLC surface was achieved. Monodomain alignment of the IB aligned IPS cell can be observed. The good electro-optical characteristics of the IB aligned IPS cell was observed with oblique IB exposure on the NDLC as a-C:H thin film for 1min.

Background: Pilates exercises are used for body shape correction because they can achieve correct posture alignment through spinal stabilization. Objects: This study aimed to determine whether the use of reformers increases the effectiveness of Pilates core exercises on body alignment in standing. Methods: The study included 30 women without known diagnoses of musculoskeletal and neurological disorders or cancer. Those who had taken more than 10 Pilates lessons were excluded. The participants were randomly assigned to either the reformer exercise group or the mat exercise group, and interventional Pilates exercises were performed for 60 minutes a day, three times a week, for a total of 8 weeks. Ten movements of the reformer and mat Pilates core exercise programs were included. Exbody^® 9100 MOMI musculoskeletal analysis equipment (Exbody Inc.) was used to assess the alignment of the standing posture in the frontal plane. Results: As a result of comparing the differences within and between the groups before and after the intervention using the two-way mixed analysis of variance test, height differences in the head, pelvis, left and right, shoulders, scapulas, knees, and ankles in the frontal plane after the intervention were found in both groups. For example, the left-right symmetry of the body alignment in the standing posture was significantly improved within each group (p < 0.05). However, no significant difference was found between the groups (p > 0.05). Conclusion: Both the reformer and mat Pilates core exercises were effective for standing posture alignment, which has clinical significance. If an exercise program is developed based on the analysis of movements necessary for posture improvement and the target muscles to be strengthened, the same effect can be achieved only with mat exercise without using the reformer equipment at the beginner stage.

In this paper, electro-optical characteristic of Nematic Liquid crystal (LC) with varying temperature in different LCD modes, namely Fringe Field Switching (FFS), In-plane switching (IPS), and Patterned Vertical Alignment (PVA) modes are investigated and compared. Electro optic me asurements suggest that rate of change of transmission with temperature in FFS mode was lowest and much more thermally stable as compared to IPS and PVA m odes. However the electro-optical characteristic of patterned vertical alignment (PVA) mode was most affected by changing temperature. The measured threshold voltage was found to be much more thermally stable in FFS and IPS modes than that of PVA mode.
