Background: This study was conducted to apply active release techniques to male youth basketball players to help improve physical development and damage prevention and improve performance through improved balance and functional movement. Design: Randomized control trial. Methods: The subjects included 33 youth basketball players who were randomly assigned to the experimental group (n=17) and the control group (n=16). For the experimental group, the active release technique was applied to the hip muscles, calf muscles, posterior thigh muscles based on the distribution of injuries surveyed in youth basketball players in the Korean Basksetball League. The Y-balance test and the functional reach test (FRT) were used to assess balance and the Functional Movement Screen (FMS) was used to assess functional movement. Interventions were conducted twice a week for 4 weeks at 40 minutes per session. The experimental group was the active release technique group, and static stretching, a common exercise therapy technique, and self-myofascial release using a foam roller were applied for 20 minutes. The control group received general exercise therapy and placebo active release technique. The placebo active release technique applies pressure only. results:The experimental group showed a greater improvement in balance, as evidenced by the FRT, compared to the control group, which received general exercise treatment. However, there was no statistically significant difference in improvement between the 2 groups. In the case of the experimental group, the difference in the Y balance test before and after the intervention was larger than that of the control group, but there was no statistically significant difference. Significant improvement was found in functional movement, as evidence by the FMS, for the trunk stability test (p < 0.05), in-line lunge test (p < 0.05), rotational stability test (p < 0.05), total score (p < 0.05). Conclusion: In this study, the active release technique improved the balance and functional movement of young basketball players more than general exercise therapy. The application of the active release technique is therefore expected to assist in physical development, prevent damage, and improve the performance of youth basketball players.

Production control is usually composed of due-dote assignment, production input control, and priority dispatching rule. A production input control(PIC) is mainly to control the WIP level on the shop floor. On the other hand, a priority dispatching rule(PDR) is mainly to control the tardiness/earliness of on order and number of tardy jobs. Therefore, if we select a particular PIC which can control only a particular performance measure(i.e., tardiness), it may cause worsening other performance measure(i.e., WIP level, shopfloor time, etc.) This newly developed production input control, DRD(Dual Release-Dates), is mainly designed to control the WIP level on the shop floor by employing two different release-dates of an order(earliest release. date and latest release-date and the release condition (relationship between the current WIP level and the pre-defined maximum WIP level) while trying to meet the due-date of the order.

The results of performance assessment analyses have shown that the long-lived radionuclides such as I-129 control the potential individual dose impact to the public. I-129 is difficult-to-measure(DTM) in low-level waste because it is non-gamma emitting radionuclides and exists at extremely low concentrations in radioactive waste generated by nuclear reactors. In this study, computer modeling technique to predict release rate of I-129 is developed to provide another tools far performance assessment of land disposal facilities and characteristics of radwaste. Model suggested in this study will give conservative values of I-129 release rate far determination of radwaste characteristics. More detailed approach is implemented to account for release conditions of fuel source-nuclides. 1-131 concentration measured from reactor coolant and released fraction from tramp fuel have dominant roles in calculating release rate of I-129 with fuel defect conditions.

Experimental study has been conducted to clarify the pneumatic characteristics of brake system for freight train and enhance the performance of diaphragm valve. Empty-load and diaphragm brake systems are mainly used in the freight trains of KNR (Korean National Railroad). The train set is composed of thirty freight cars and diesel locomotive. From the experimental results, new quick release valve shortens release time after brake application. In case of normal brake application, the release time is short by 34% of that of original diaphragm control valve. It will be expected to assure brake-release application and reduce maintenance efforts.

Release planning in a software product line (SPL) is to select and assign the features of the multiple software products in the SPL in sequence of releases along a specified planning horizon satisfying the numerous constraints regarding technical precedence, conflicting priorities for features, and available resources. A greedy genetic algorithm is designed to solve the problems of release planning in SPL which is formulated as a precedence-constrained multiple 0-1 knapsack problem. To be guaranteed to obtain feasible solutions after the crossover and mutation operation, a greedy-like heuristic is developed as a repair operator and reflected into the genetic algorithm. The performance of the proposed solution methodology in this research is tested using a fractional factorial experimental design as well as compared with the performance of a genetic algorithm developed for the software release planning. The comparison shows that the solution approach proposed in this research yields better result than the genetic algorithm.

In this paper, the mechanical performance of cracked surface-coated Zircaloy cladding, which has different coating materials, coating thicknesses and initial crack lengths, has been investigated. By analyzing the stress field near the crack tip, the safety zone range of initial crack length has been decided. In order to determine whether the crack can propagate along the radial (r) or axial (z) directions, the energy release rate has been calculated. By comparing the energy release rate with fracture toughness of materials, we can divide the initial crack lengths into three zones: safety zone, discussion zone and danger zone. The results show that Cr is suitable coating material for the cladding with a thin coating while Fe-Cr-Al have a better fracture mechanical performance in the cladding with thick coating. The Si-coated and SiC-coated claddings are suitable for reactors with low power fuel elements. Conclusions in this paper can provide reference and guidance for the cladding design of nuclear fuel elements.

To investigate analgesic mechanism of capsaicin and its analogues (capsaicinoids), release of adenosine was measured by high performance liquid chromatography from dorsal spinal cord synaptosomes, Exposure of synaptosomes to K$\^$+/ and morphine produced a dose dependent release of adenosine in the presence of Ca$\^$++/. Capsaicin (0.1, 1, 10 M), and its analogues 6-paradol (1, 10 M), NE-19550 (1, 10, 100 M), DMNE (1, 10, 100 M) and KR 25018 (0.1, 1, 10 M) produced a dose dependent release of adenosine in the presence of Ca$\^$++/. Nifedipine, L-type voltage sensitive calcium channel blocker, inhibited K$\^$+/ (6, 12 mM)- and morphine (10 M)-evoked release of adenosine completely, but inhibited capsaicin, and capsaicinoids-evoked release of adenosine partially. Capsazepine, a novel capsaicin select ive antagonist, blocked only capsaicin and capsaicinoids induced release of adenosine. Therefore, the adenosine release by capsaicin and capsaicinoids having antinociceptive effects involve activation of capsaicin specific receptor and capsaicin sensitive Ca$\^$++/ channel.

We have performed experimental studies for the improvements of pneumatic brake systems of freight trains. Currently, most of the freight trains operated by the Korean National Railroad have either empty-load or diaphragm type brake systems. In this study, appropriate methods that the air pressure characteristics in both type of brake systems are in accordance with each other have been investigated. We have also performed running tests using a 30 car-train set to design optimum capacity of a quick release valve. The test results show that the quick release valve is considerably effective in shortening the release time of the diaphragm type brake system. In the case of a normal brake application, the diaphragm type brake system with the quick release valve reduces the release time to 34% of that of the system without the quick release valve. This release time is almost equivalent to that of the empty-load type brake system. Accordance of braking performance in different types of brake systems in a train set is expected to prevent wheel flats and to reduce maintenance costs.

최근 미세먼지 및 배기가스로 인한 환경문제를 해결하고자 도로구조물의 광촉매 적용이 시도되고 있다. 이에 본 연구에서는 폐수슬러지에서 제조 후 재활용된 저비용 고성능 광촉매(GST)의 혼합 및 분산방안을 검토하고, 질소산화물(NOx) 제거 성능을 최종 평가하여 저비용 고성능 광촉매를 활용한 콘크리트 이형박리제를 개발하고자 한다. 광촉매적용을 위한 분산방안을 검토하기 위해 분산된 시료를 4주간 옥외폭로하여 분리유무를 통한 안정성을 평가한 결과, 분산형 증점제 사용량 20 % 적용시 층분리 및 침전현상 없이 안정적인 상태를 보였다. 저비용 고성능 광촉매를 활용한 이형박리제를 거푸집에 도포시켜 탈형한 시편의 NO 및 NOx 제거율은 Plain 대비 200~400 %의 우수한 효과를 나타내었다. 저비용 고성능 광촉매를 활용한 콘크리트 이형박리제의 성능을 증진시키기 위해서는 나노사이즈인 광촉매의 분산성 향상 및 사용량 증가가 필요할 것으로 사료된다. 또한, 저비용 고성능 광촉매를 활용한 이형박리제를 도로구조물 및 노출 콘크리트에 사용하게 되면 NOx 제거효율을 증가시킬 수 있을 것으로 판단된다.
