Objective: The purpose of this study was to investigate differences of landing strategy between people with or without chronic ankle instability (CAI) during double-leg drop landing. Method: 34 male adults participated in this study (CAI = 16, Normal = 18). Participants performed double-leg drop landing task on a 30 cm height and 20 cm horizontal distance away from the force plate. Lower Extremities Kinetic and Kinematic data were obtained using 8 motion capture cameras and 2 force plates and loading rate was calculated. Independent samples t-test were used to identify differences between groups. Results: Compared with normal group, CAI group exhibits significantly less hip internal rotation angle (CAI = 1.52±8.12, Normal = 10.63±8.44, p = 0.003), greater knee valgus angle (CAI = -6.78±5.03, Normal = -12.38 ±6.78, p = 0.011), greater ankle eversion moment (CAI = 0.0001±0.02, Normal = -0.03±0.05, p = 0.043), greater loading Rate (CAI = 32.65±15.52, Normal = 18.43±10.87, p = 0.003) on their affected limb during maximum vertical Ground Reaction Force moment. Conclusion: Our results demonstrated that CAI group exhibits compensatory movement to avoid ankle inversion during double-leg drop landing compared with normal group. Further study about how changed kinetic and kinematic affect shock absorption ability and injury risk in participants with CAI is needed.

This study reports an optimization of a 3D printed wrist brace (WB) for various tilting angles (0°, 45°, 90°) of the re-entrant (RE) pattern and thickness (2 mm, 4 mm) using thermoplastic polyurethane (TPU) filaments and thermoplastic elastomer (TPE) filaments. The actual printing time, weight, Poisson's ratio, and tensile property of the manufactured samples were analyzed. The results confirmed that the actual printing time and weight increased with increasing thickness, regardless of the filament type. All tilting angles of the WB showed a negative Poisson's ratio (NPR), the largest of which appeared at 90°. The results of the tensile property analysis showed that a 90° tilting angle also had the largest value of elongation and stress. From these results, we conclude that the most suitable wrist brace is one in which the actual printing time is low, the weight is minimized to a thickness of 2 mm, and the tilting angle of the RE pattern is 90° for good shock absorption. The choice of filaments may be decided upon according to the user's preference, since the TPU is stiff and the TPE is elastic.

To assess the seismic performance of Plate-Shell Integrated Concrete Liquid-Storage Structure (PSICLSS), a scaled test model was constructed. This model incorporated a hybrid isolation system, which combined shape memory alloy (SMA), lead-cored rubber isolation bearing (LRB) and sliding isolation bearing (SB). By conducting shaking table test, the dynamic responses of both non-isolated and hybrid-isolated PSICLSS were analyzed. The results show that the hybrid isolation system can effectively reduce the acceleration and displacement responses of the structure. However, it also results in an increase in local hydrodynamic pressure and liquid sloshing height. Under extreme earthquake action, the displacement of isolation layer is small. When vertical ground motion is taken into account, the shock absorption rate of horizontal acceleration decreases. The peak hydrodynamic pressure increases significantly, and the peak hydrodynamic pressure position also changes. The maximum displacement of isolation layer increases, the residual displacement decreases.

수출 절화 백합에서의 포장은 품질 유지 및 신선도에 직접적인 영향을 끼칠 수 있기 때문에 어느 포장재를 선정해야 하는가에 대한 연구가 필요하다. 이 연구에서는 무처리 신문지, OPP천공필름, 연신나이론필름(ON), OPP펀칭필름 그리고 무처리 OPP필름을 이용하여 실험하였다. $25^{\circ}C$에 저장한 백합은 $5^{\circ}C$에 비하여 노화가 급격하게 일어났음을 알 수 있었으며 $25^{\circ}C$에 저장한 백합이 $5^{\circ}C$에 저장한 것보다 수분 흡수와 생체중의 변화폭이 작았다. 뿐만 아니라 생체중은 $5^{\circ}C$가 $25^{\circ}C$ 비하여 OPP필름을 제외한 모든 포장재에서 높게 나타났는데 이는 $5^{\circ}C$가 $25^{\circ}C$에 비해 수분 흡수량이 높게 나타나 생체중 감소를 억제하였기 때문이다. 또한 $5^{\circ}C$일 때 포장재 형태가 백합의 생리활성에 미치는 영향이 $25^{\circ}C$때보다 높게 나타났다. 포장재를 비교하였을 때에는 신문지 포장재만이 저장온도에 따른 절화백합의 생리활성 변화에 영향이 가장 작게 나타났다는 사실로 미루어 보아 개화일은 포장재 형태보다 온도에 의한 영향을 많이 받는다는 사실을 알 수 있었다.

항공기의 착륙장치는 지상에서 동체로 전달되는 충격에너지를 흡수 및 소산시키는 장치이다. 착륙장치 중 반능동형 MR 댐퍼 착륙장치는 다양한 착륙조건에서 높은 충격흡수효율을 보여주며 제어 불능 시 안정성을 확보할 수 있는 장점이 있다. 오리피스가 아닌 환형 관유로를 이용하는 MR 댐퍼 착륙장치의 경우, 유로 압력강하로 인해 발생하는 감쇠력이 MR 댐퍼 내부 형상 구조에 따라 저압 챔버에서 캐비테이션을 유발할 수 있어 기존의 2 자유도계 모델링 기법보다 다중물리시스템 해석 프로그램인 Amesim이 더 유용하다. Amesim을 이용한 해석결과를 바탕으로 착륙장치 내부 유로 형상 배치를 수정하여 캐비테이션을 방지할 수 있는 유로 구조를 제안하였고 낙하 시험 시뮬레이션 결과를 통해 이를 검증하였다. 본 논문에서는 환형 관로 형태 유로 구조를 갖는 MR 댐퍼형 착륙장치의 캐비테이션 발생시 주요 특성을 파악하였고, 아울러 내부형상 배치 수정을 통해 이를 방지하는 방안을 제시하였다.

The purpose of this study was to analyze the changes in kinematic and kinetic parameters of lower extremity joint according to rehabilitation period. Fourteen collegiate male athletes(age: $22.1{\pm}1.35$ years, height: $182.46{\pm}9.45cm$, weight: $88.63{\pm}9.25kg$) and fourteen collegiate athletes on functional ankle instability(age: $21.5{\pm}1.35$ years, height: $184.45{\pm}9.42cm$, weight: $92.85{\pm}10.85kg$) with the right leg as dominant were chosen. The subjects performed drop landing. The date were collected by using VICON with 8 camera to analyze kinematic variables and force platform to analyze kinetic variables. There are two approaches of this study, one is to compare between groups, the other is to find changes of lower extremity joint after rehabilitation. In comparison to the control group, FAI group showed more increased PF & Inversion at IC and decreased full ROM when drop landing. Regarding the peak force and loading rate, it resulted in higher PVGRF and loading. FAI group used more increased knee and hip ROM because of decreased ankle ROM to absorb the shock. And it used sagittal movement to stabilize. In terms of rehabilitation period, FAI group showed that landing patterns were changed and it increased total ankle excursion and used all lower extremity joint close to normal ankle. Regarding the peak force and loading rate, FAI group decreased PVGRF and loading rate. and also showed shock absorption using increased ankle movement. And COP variable showed that proprioception training increased stability during 8 weeks. The results of this study suggest that 8 weeks rehabilitation period is worthwhile to be considered as a way to improve neuromuscular control and to prevent sports injuries.

본 연구에서는 1차원 충돌해석 방법을 이용하여 기존 철도차량 화물차량의 충돌 가속도 분석을 통해 기존 차량의 문제점을 확인하고, 충돌 안전성 향상 대안을 제시하고자 한다. 화물 철도차량의 국내 충돌사고 사례 및 유럽 및 북미 규격 분석을 통해 입환충격 상황과 충돌사고 상황 시나리오를 선정하였다. 차량의 질량과 연결기의 하중-변위 특성을 고려하여 화차용 1차원 충돌해석 모델을 개발하였으며, 상용 유한요소 해석솔버인 LS-DYNA를 이용한 1차원 충돌 해석을 수행하였다. 해석 결과 충돌속도 10km/h 이내의 입환충격 상황에서 화차의 가속도 레벨은 EN 12663 규격에서 제시하는 2g 이하로 안정된 수준으로 예측되었지만, 충돌속도 15~30 km/h 사이의 충돌사고 상황에서는 연결기의 완충용량 부족으로 차체의 변형 및 가속도 레벨의 증가가 예측되어 차체 구조 및 적재 화물의 안전에 취약한 구조임을 확인하였다. 충돌안전성 향상 방안으로 화차에 재료의 소성변형을 이용한 비가역적 충돌에너지 흡수장치를 적용하여 동일 시나리오로 충돌해석을 수행하였고, 기존 차량 대비 최대 12% 수준으로 가속도 레벨이 감소된 것을 확인하였다.

To investigate the anticipatory effect on landing patterns during side-cutting maneuver, thirteen healthy female elite college soccer players participated in this study. Three-dimensional knee kinematics, effective mass and correlation between both these were measured and analyzed using a motion analysis and force plates. Each testing session included anticipated tasks, $45^{\circ}$ side-cutting tasks (AC), followed by a set of unexpected side-cutting (UC) in a random order. Knee flexion/extension, valgus/varus and internal/external rotation angles and effect mass were compared by using paired t-test. Also, correlation analysis was performed to identify the relationship between knee angles and effective mass. Effective mass during UC was greater than that during AC. Effective mass and maximum knee flexion angle were positively correlated during AC and not during UC. Based on the relationship between effective mass and knee flexion angle in AC, shock absorption can be controlled by knee joint flexion in pre-predicted movement condition. However, effective mass can not be controlled by knee flexion in UC condition. The unexpected load affects were more irregular on the knee joint, which may be one of the injury mechanisms of anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) in female soccer players.

An object in the Low Earth Orbit (LEO) is affected by many environmental conditions unlike earth's surface such as, Atomic oxygen (AO), Ultraviolet Radiation (UV), thermal cycling, High Vacuum and Micrometeoroids and Orbital Debris (MMOD) impacts. The effect of all these parameters have to be carefully considered when designing a space structure, as it could be very critical for a space mission. Polybenzimidazole (PBI) is a high performance thermoplastic polymer that could be a suitable material for space missions because of its excellent resistance to these environmental factors. A thin coating of PBI polymer on the carbon epoxy composite laminate (referred as CFRP) was found to improve the energy absorption capability of the laminate in event of a hypervelocity impact. However, the overall efficiency of the shield also depends on other factors like placement and orientation of the laminates, standoff distances and the number of shielding layers. This paper studies the effectiveness of using a PBI coating on the front bumper in a multi-shock shield design for enhanced hypervelocity impact resistance. A thin PBI coating of 43 micron was observed to improve the shielding efficiency of the CFRP laminate by 22.06% when exposed to LEO environment conditions in a simulation chamber. To study the effectiveness of PBI coating in a hypervelocity impact situation, experiments were conducted on the CFRP and the PBI coated CFRP laminates with projectile velocities between 2.2 to 3.2 km/s. It was observed that the mass loss of the CFRP laminates decreased 7% when coated by a thin layer of PBI. However, the study of mass loss and damage area on a witness plate showed CFRP case to have better shielding efficiency than PBI coated CFRP laminate case. Therefore, it is recommended that PBI coating on the front bumper is not so effective in improving the overall hypervelocity impact resistance of the space structure.

The purpose of this study is to verify the impact protection performance and to evaluate the activity, design, fit, and pad characteristics of the fall impact protection clothing for elderly women. The protective clothing was designed as pants type and underwear type, and an impact protection pad in the form of a tightly connected regular hexagon piece was inserted in the hip and hip joints. The pad was made of two kinds of foam single pad and foam and gel combination pad so that they could be inserted into pants type and underwear type, respectively. The results of the shock absorption performance of the fall impact protective clothing showed that when the impact force of 4601N was applied to the pants type protective clothing, the impact force was reduced by 29% in the foam pad type and 26% in the gel and foam pad type. When the force of 5113N was applied to the underwear type, it decreased by 40% in the foam pad type and by 34% in the gel and foam pad type. As a result of wearing evaluation of subject group, it was found that fit and activity of underwear type was better than that of pants type. Foam pad type was evaluated to be lighter than gel and foam pad type in both the subject and the expert group and the gel and foam pad was evaluated to be more flexible in the expert group.
