This study investigated the center of mass and lower extremity kinematic patterns between carved and basic paralell turn during alpine skiing. Six experienced skiers (age: $20.67{\pm}4.72yrs$, body mass: $72.67{\pm}7.15kg$, height: $171.00{\pm}5.51cm$) participated in this study. Each skier were asked to perform carved and basic paralell turn on a $22.95^{\circ}$ groomed slope. Each turn was divided into the initiation phase, steering phase 1 and 2. The results of this study show that the carved turn spent significantly less running time than basic paralell turn at all three phases (p<.05). Also vertical displacement of the center of mass was significantly greater in carved turn at all three phases, whereas inward leaning angle of the center of mass was significantly greater in carved turn at the steering phase 1 and 2 (p<.05). Bilateral knee and hip joint angle were significantly greater in basic paralell turn at the initiation phase and the steering phase 2 (p<.05). On the other hand, left knee and hip joint angle were significantly greater in basic paralell turn at the steering phase 1 (p<.05). In order to perform successful carved turn, we suggest that skiers should coordinate bilateral knee and hip joint angles to adjust the center of mass, depending on three ski turn phases.

This study examines what the resort hotel user's requirements with the inauguration of 5 working days are. For that, the present conditions, concepts, principles, development history and examples of the domestic resort hotel were researched. Also the field survey on the real users was carried out, asking what the problems are in using the domestic resort hotel. These research materials can be utilized for the practice application on the planning of the resort hotel with the analyzing each available spaces. In the survey result, the point on the rooms which are considered as the most important aspect for the profits of the hotel got high grade, but the rest which are not related with the profits directly was revealed to get quiet low grade. This result shows the problems which must be improved considering the fact that the actual purpose of resort hotel is the lesuire and rest. Not only the convinience in using each facilities and the contentment in the aspect of room design, but the connection between the spaces will be considered in the planning on the constructing the spaces of future resort hotel.

Mycosis fungoides is an uncommon, chronic fatal disease of lymphoreticular system associated with primary ski3 involvement for many years and terminating as a malignant lymphoma with involvement of lymph nodes and viscerae. On occasion it simulates numerous other nonspecific benign skin lesions, thus it may be impossible to decide whether the infiltrate represents early mycosis fungoides or nonspecific on the histopathologic ground alone. A case of mycosis fungoides was confirmed by electron microscopy and reported here. The patient was 69-years-old male who had suffered from erythematous scaly eruption on the whole body since 10 years. Skin biopsies of 4 times showed focal ulceration with chronic nonspecific inflammation and polymorphic cell infiltration in lower dermis, thus possibility of mycosis fungoides could not be completely ruled out. Electron microscopically several atypical lymphoid cells, which had a large cerebriform nucleus with peripheral condensation of dense chromatin and scant cytoplasm, were noted in the upper dermis. Intraepidermal infiltration of these atypical cells was also seen. It was thought that the electron microscopic study may be very helpful to differentiate equivocal mycosis fungoides from the nonspecific dermatosis.

When we looked at the seasonal food dregs of the eastern side of gangwondo, gangneung city's summer and winter food dregs showed 25.9 and 25.8% respectively due to the presence of beach areas and ski resorts. Sokcho city showed 28.12% in summer and yangyang gun's summer food dregs showed 40.2%. Yangyang gun's august food dregs showed 2.7 times larger than annual average amount. Outlook density showed regional characteristics. Data showed that food dregs' amount rate has been reduced gradually from 2005 because of the prohibition of direct filling up. As a result of compositions analysis, the eastern side of gangwondo's water fraction of living dregs were lower than that of chuncheon city where is located at the gangwondo's inland area. chuncheon city's data showed residential areas 53.5%, community areas 56.8% and commercial areas 55.6%. These discrepancies caused by the characteristics of dregs discharge type and climate. The caloric value of dregs has been increased incrementally after the ban of food dregs' direct filling up. Therefore, heating value of the dregs exceeds the existing furnace design spec and it can cause high caloric value problems, so we need additional research to solve these problems.

PURPOSE: The objective of this study was to determine the effects of virtual reality training on muscle activation in the elderly. METHODS: The subjects were 32 healthy elderly people aged between 65 and 80, who were divided into the VR(virtual reality) training group(n=17) and the control group(n=15). The Virtual reality training group engaged in a 30-minute exercise session using Wii Fit three times a week for eight weeks. Virtual reality training group used the Ski Slalom, Table tile, Balance bubble programs. low-extremity muscle activation of the two groups were measured before and after the intervention. RESULTS: To investigate the effects of the training on lower-extremity muscle activation, biceps femoris, gastrocnemius, tibialis anterior, vastus lateralis were measured. The results revealed that the activation of gastrocnemius and tibialis anterior significantly increased(p<.05), which indicates virtual reality training is effective in improving the activation of the muscles involved in the movement of the ankle joint. CONCLUSION: Virtual reality training is effective in improving the healthy elderly's activation of the muscles involved in the movement of the ankle joint. Thus, virtual reality training can be proposed as a form of fall prevention exercise for the elderly.

In this paper, the dynamic behavior of a very flexible cable due to moving multibody system along its length is presented. The very deformable motion of a cable is presented using absolute nodal coordinate formulation, which is based on the finite element procedures and the general continuum mechanics theory to represent the elastic forces. Formulation for the sliding joint between a very flexible beam and a rigid body is derived. In order to formulate the constraint equations of this joint, a non-generalized coordinate, which has no inertia or forces associated with this coordinate, is used. The modeling of this sliding joint is very important to many mechanical applications such as the ski lifts. cable cars, and pulley systems. A multibody system moves along an elastic cable using this sliding joint. A numerical example is shownusing the developed analysis program for flexible multibody systems that include a large deformable cable.

V parahaemolyticus possessed an extracellular alkaline pretense activity during the stationary growth phase. Various factors such as nitrogen sources, the concentration of NaCl and metal ions were investigated for optimizing the production of alkaline pretense from V. parahaemolyticus ATCC 17802. Among the nitrogen sources tested skim milk showed the distinct increase of the activity and the activity was the highest at 2% in final concentration after 60 hours incubation. The addition of NaCl and metal ions did not increase the alkaline pretense activity. CoC$_2$, CuC1$_2$, and HgCl rather highly inhibited alkaline protease production.

In speed skiing, aerodynamic forces play an important role in determining performance of the skier. To predict aerodynamic effects of the posture of the skier on alpine downhill skiing, we constructed equation of motion of the skier and performed the corresponding CFD simulations. Comparing drag and lift of three different skier postures, it has been shown that drag decreases significantly by tucking upper body to lower body and stretching arms forward. Also, aerodynamic lift which worked as downforce in standing posture worked upward in tuck posture, reducing friction force between snow and ski. This indicates that tuck posture have advantages over standing posture in dual mechanism, namely by reducing drag and also increasing lift. By this two-dimensional initial study we could reveal the general tendency of the aerodynamic force over the skier's body. This study not only provides a theoretical foundation for the athletes to understand the aerodynamic effects of skier postures but also shed a light on towards more accurate and rational three-dimensional CFD simulation of skiers in the near future study.

A microcomputer-aided fermentation system was constructed for high density fed-batch culture using dissolved oxygen(DO) as a substrate feeding indicator. DO signal was processed prior to aquisition to computer. Agitation speed and oxygen flow rate was changed stepwisely to maintain DO value at a constant level. Agitation speed was controlled by the output signal of D/A converter. Oxygen flow rate was controlled by a flow rate control valve connected to a stepping motor. Substrate was fed with a feeding pump operated by the abrupt increase of DO signal. Methylobacillus sp. SK1 was cultivated to test the system and 16.53g/l of cell density was obtained after 10 hr.
