This paper presents a dynamic manipulability analysis method of the limb moving in viscous fluid. The key idea of the presented method is that the boundary of joint velocity can be converted to the velocity-dependant dynamic manipulability polytope through the coriolis, centrifugal and drag terms in dynamic equation. The velocity-dependant dynamic manipulability polytope is added to the inertial and restoring force manipulability polytope to get overall manipulability polytope of the limb moving in the fluid Each of the torque and velocity bounds arc considered in the infinite norm sense in joint space, and the drag force of a limb moving in fluid viscous is modeled as a quadratic form An analysis example with proposed analysis scheme is presented to validate the method.

Inherent opportunities on research for restoring high resolution image from low resolution images are increasing in these days. Super resolution image reconstruction is the process of combining multiple low resolution images to form a higher resolution one. To achieve super resolution reconstruction, proper observation model which is based on subpixel shift information is required. In this context, the importance of the subpixel registration cannot be estimated because subpixel shift information cannot be obtained from original image. This paper presents a regularized adaptive super resolution reconstruction method based on phase correlated subpixel registration, where the Constrained Least Squares(CLS) Restoration is adopted as a post process.

In a preliminary study, Lactobacillus plantarum C29 was found to suppress 2,4,6-trinitrobenzenesulfonic acid (TNBS)-induced colitis in mice. Therefore, to understand whether an anti-colitic probiotic C29 could attenuate memory impairment, we examined the effects of C29 on TNBS-induced memory impairment in mice. Orally administered Lactobacillus plantarum C29 attenuated TNBS-induced memory impairment in mice in the Y-maze, noble object, and passive avoidance task tests. C29 treatment increased TNBS-suppressed hippocampal brain-derived neurotrophic factor expression and inhibited TNBS-induced hippocampal NF-${\kappa}B$ activation and blood LPS levels. Moreover, C29 restored the TNBS-disturbed gut microbiota composition. These findings suggest that C29 can alleviate memory impairment presumably by restoring the gut microbiota composition.

The application of carbon fiber reinforced polymer (CFRP) composites for rehabilitation of steel structures has become vital in recent years. This paper presents an experimental program and a finite element (FE) modelling approach to study the effectiveness of CFRP patch for repair of notch damaged circular hollow sectional (CHS) steel beams. The proposed modeling approach is unique because it takes into account the orthotropic behavior and stacking sequence of composite materials. Parametric study was conducted to investigate the effect of initial damage (i.e., notch depth) on flexural performance of the notched beams and effectiveness of the repair system using the validated FE models. Results demonstrated the ability of CFRP patch to repair notched CHS steel beams, restoring them to their original flexural stiffness and strength. The effect of composite patch repair technique on post-elastic stiffness was more pronounced compared to the elastic stiffness. Composite patch repair becomes more effective when the level of initial damage of beam increases.

Limit cycle oscillations (LCO) as well as nonlinear aeroelastic analysis of a swept aircraft wing with cubic restoring moments in the pitch degree of freedom is investigated. The unsteady aerodynamic loading applied on the wing is modeled by using the strip theory. The harmonic balance method is used to calculate the LCO frequency and amplitude for the swept wing. Finally the super and subcritical Hopf bifurcation diagrams are plotted. It is concluded that the type of bifurcation and turning point location is sensitive to the system parameters such as wing geometry and sweep angle.

As a new suspension is being designed, the designer should consider that the vehicle has a good ride and handling performance. It is not easy for a yound desigineer to decide the design parameters. In this study, the design process of a suspension system is described. the method of optimized design to achieve the target of vehicle performance from the initial layout to detailed design stage is also described. As a result, the effects of design parameters in the vehicle dynamic performance are mentioned by the synthesized program

In order to analyze the rolling motion of a ship in random beam waves we use the partial stochastic linearization method. The quadratic damping and the nonlinear restoring moments given by the odd polynomials up to the 11th order are added to a single degree of freedom linear equation of roll motion. The irregular excitation moment is assumed to be the Gaussian white noise. The statistical characteristics of the response by the partial stochastic linearization method is compared with results by the equivalent linearization method and Monte Carlo simulation. It is fecund that the partial stochastic linearization method is not necessarily superior to the equivalent linearization method.

Almost 18,000 children were protected in 285 residential facilities all over the country in 2008 in Korea. The recent trends of the residential care include downsizing, and emphasizing independent living programs for aging out youths. Since the 1990s when the active research on the children in residential facilities has begun, the study focus has extended to the issues of developmental status and outcomes of the children, and recently, to the independency of the youths discharged from the facilities. The practical and policy issues are development of therapeutic programs for the children in care, increase of counseling staff, extension of programs for restoring children's relationship with their families, and planning of various policies to support the independence of discharged youths.

Methods for restoring the posterior portion of the maxilla with delayed and simultaneous sinus lift, composite graft and placement of TPS cylinder and screw type implants are presented. Sinus grafting is needed because of minimal remaining alveolar bone and supporting posterior maxillary portion, The composite graft material uses a combination of autogeneous bone from tuberosity, dimeneralized freeze dried allogenic bone and hydroxylapatite with saline. Since 1991, feb, 1 sinus graft with delayed implantation of 3 cylinder implants and 5 sinus grafts with simultaneous placement of 4HA coated screw typed, 8 TPS cylinder typed implants have been performed for 6 patients. None of the 15 restored implants have been lost, Temporization of prosthesis was done about 2-5 months before final prosthetic work, None of them shows any severe complication.

The severe wear of anterior teeth facilitates the loss of anterior guidance, which protects the posterior teeth from wear during excursive movement. The collapse of posterior teeth also results in the loss of normal occlusal plane and the reduction of the vertical dimension. This case report describes 77-year-old female, who had the loss of anterior guidance, the severe wear of dentition, and the reduction of the vertical dimension. Occlusal overlay splint was used after the decision of increasing vertical dimension by anatomical landmark, facial and physiologic measurement. Once the compatibility of the new vertical dimension had been confirmed, interim fixed restoration and the permanent reconstruction was initiated. This case reports that a satisfactory clinical result was achieved by restoring the vertical dimension with an improvement in esthetics and function.
