본 연구는 발가락 지방 소거 검사 시에 종종 저품질의 영상이 획득되는 경우에 주목하여 다양한 조절인자들을 조절하지 않아도 손쉽게 영상 품질을 향상하는 방법을 고안해보았다. 팬텀과 지원자를 대상으로 발 전용 코일만 사용한 경우와 추가 코일을 결합 사용한 경우의 영상을 획득 후 신호대 잡음비(SNR)를 측정하여 비교하였다. 시상면, 관상면, 축상면 모두 T2 Dixon을 시행하였고, 시상면의 경우 T2 지방 소거(FS)와 T1 지방 소거를 추가 시행하였다. 팬텀 검사에서 추가 코일을 결합 사용 시 SNR은 시상면의 경우 T2 Dixon water는 1.21배, T2 FS은 1.22배, T1 FS은 1.17배 향상되었다. 관상면 T2 Dixon water는 1.15배, 축상면 T2 Dixon water는 1.47배 향상되었다. 지원자 검사에서 추가 코일을 결합 사용 시 SNR은 시상면의 경우 T2 Dixon water는 2.07배, T2 FS은 5.17배, T1 FS은 3.20배 향상되었다. 관상면 T2 Dixon water는 1.20배, 축상면 T2 Dixon water는 1.37배 향상되었다. 추가 코일을 결합 사용하였을 때 모든 지방 소거 검사 및 모든 방향에서 SNR 향상의 결과를 얻을 수 있었다. 결론적으로 사용자의 고도 기술 및 추가 검사 시간이 필요하지 않고도 SNR을 향상할 수 있음을 의미한다.

To investigate the effect of thinning intensity on environmental factors and ectomycorrhizal mushroom fruiting in forest ecosystems, we studied canopy closure, throughfall, soil temperature, soil moisture, light response of understory vegetation, and ectomycorrhizal mushroom fruiting in a 10-year-old pine forest after 34%, 45%, and 60% thinning. Canopy closure was significantly higher in the 34% treatment and control plots, ranging from 80–85% in April. However, in November, all thinning treatment plots showed a decrease of approximately 5–10% compared with the control plot. The 60% treatment plot had over 200 mm of additional throughfall compared with the control plot, and monthly throughfall was significantly higher by more than 100 mm in October. The soil temperature in each treatment plot increased significantly by up to 1°C or more compared with the control plot as the thinning rate increased. The soil moisture increased by more than 5% in the thinning treatment plots during rainfall, particularly in the 34% treatment plot, where the rate of moisture decrease was slower. The photosynthetic rate of major tree species (excluding Pinus densiflora)was highest in Quercus mongolica, with a rate of 7 μmolCO2·m-2·s-1. At a lightintensity of 800 μmol·m-2·s-1, Q. mongolica showed the highest photosynthetic level of 6 ± 0.3 μmolCO2·m-2·s-1 in the 45% treatment. The photosynthetic rate of Fraxinus sieboldiana and Styrax japonicus increased as the thinning intensity increased. The Shannon– Wiener index of mycorrhizal mushrooms did not significantly differ among treatments, but the fresh weight of mushrooms was approximately 360–840 g higher in the 34% and 45% treatments than in the control. Additionally, the fresh weight of fungi in the 60% treatment was 860 g less than that in the control. There were more individuals of Amanita citrina in the control than in the thinning treatment, while Suillus bovinus numbers increased by more than 10 times in the 34% thinning treatment compared with the control.

Background: Delivery workers repeatedly get in and out of trucks and walk or run to deliver packages during work. Iliotibial band syndrome (ITBS) is a well-known non-traumatic overuse injury of the lateral side of the knee caused by frequent knee flexion and extension. Hip muscle strength is among the factors that prevent lower extremity injuries. Although many studies have examined the relationship between ITBS and hip muscle strengths, there was no study comparing hip muscle strength and ratio between delivery workers with and without ITBS. Objects: This study aimed to compare hip muscle strength and hip internal/external rotator and adductor/abductor strength ratios between delivery workers with and without ITBS. Methods: Fourteen delivery workers with ITBS matched inclusion criteria in the present study among 20 participants. Because total sample size was required 28 subjects by G*power program (ver. 3.1.9.4; University of Trier), 14 delivery workers without ITBS were recruited. Hip muscle strengths were measured in a side-lying position using a Smart KEMA pulling sensor (KOREATECH Co. Ltd.). An independent t-test was used to compare hip muscle strengths and hip internal/external rotator and hip adductor/abductor strength ratios between delivery workers with and without ITBS. Results: The adductor/abductor strength ratio was significantly greater in delivery workers without ITBS than in those with ITBS (p < 0.05). The strengths of the hip abductor, hip adductor, hip internal rotator, hip external rotator, and the ratio of internal/external rotator strengths were not significantly different between the delivery workers with and without ITBS (p > 0.05). Conclusion: This study’s findings showed that delivery workers with ITBS had significantly lesser adductor/abductor strength ratio, while the strengths of the hip abductor and adductor muscles did not differ significantly. These results suggest that adductor/abductor strength ratio should be considered when evaluating and treating ITBS in delivery workers.

The purpose of this study was to analyze the physicochemical properties by mixing ratio of soybean and peanut protein to secure basic data for developing alternative protein foods. As a result of analyzing the protein molecular weight pattern, it was confirmed that the specific molecular weight was affected by the soybean and peanut protein mixture. The content of glutamic acid, aspartic acid, arginine, glycine, serine, alanine, and tyrosine among nonessential amino acids was higher as the mixing ratio of peanut protein to soy protein was higher. However, the higher the peanut protein mixing ratio, the lower the water absorption capacity. Based on the results of this study, further studies, such as selecting soybean and peanut cultivars for determining the optimal mixing ratio of soybean and peanut protein and processing methods to improve physical properties, are necessary

In this study, the quality characteristics were compared by substituting allulose with a ratio of 0-40% instead of sugar used in dacquoise. The specific gravity and pH of the dacquoise dough were not significantly different, regardless of the allulose content. The spreadability was the highest in the sample using only sugar and decreased as the allulose content increased. Moisture content did not show a significant difference, the baking loss was the highest in the sample using 100% sugar, and there was no significant difference in the samples replaced with allulose. As a result of measuring the chromaticity of dacquoise, the L value and b value decreased and the a value showed a significant difference between the samples as the amount of substitution of allulose increased. Hardness increased as the replacement amount of allulose increased, while gumminess and chewiness showed similar trends. As a result of the sensory evaluation, the overall acceptability for the substitute sample of 100% sugar and 10% allulose was the highest. The maximum substitution ratio of allulose for dacquoise is considered to be 10%.

Structures of high-rise buildings are less prone to earthquake damage. This is because the response acceleration of high-rise buildings appears to be small by generally occurring short-period ground motions. However, due to the increased construction volume of high-rise buildings and concerns about large earthquakes, long-period ground motions have begun to be recognized as a risk factor for high-rise buildings. Ground motion observed on each floor of the building is affected by the eigenmode of the building because the ground motion input to the building is amplified in the frequency range corresponding to the building's natural frequency. In addition, long-period components of ground motion are more easily transmitted to the floor or attached components of the building than short-period components. As such, high-rise buildings and non-structural components pose concerns about long-period ground motion. However, the criteria (ASCE 7-22) underestimate the acceleration response of buildings and non-structural components caused by long-period ground motion. Therefore, the characteristics of buildings’ acceleration response amplification ratio and non-structural components were reviewed in this study through shake table tests considering long-period ground motions.

This study was conducted to identify the distribution characteristics of the impervious area in urban watersheds and to reduce the deviation of the impervious area ratio that occurs depending on the degree of construction of land surface condition data. The average impervious area ratio by land use that can be applied to the calculation of the urban impervious area ratio was derived by statistically analyzing the distribution characteristics of the impervious area ratio by land use according to the urban watershed conditions. In urban watersheds, the change in impervious area ratio over the past 20 years has continuously increased in watersheds with an impervious area ratio of less than 60%, and decreased in watersheds with a high impervious area ratio of 60% or more. The average impervious area ratio by land use applicable to the land use technique is “Residential area” 84.0%, “Residential and commercial mix” 93.6%, “Commercial and business facilities” 89.8%, “Industrial land” 84.8%, “Public land” 47.3%, “Transportation facility” 93.3%, “Urban revitalization facility” 61.1%, “Bare land” 17.6%, “Special area” 11.4%, “Forest and open space” 3.5%, “Rivers and lakes” 9.2%. As a result of examining the adequacy of the average impervious area ratio by land use, the difference between the calculated value of the impervious area ratio using land use techniques and the actual impervious area ratio of the biotope map ranged from -3.0%p to 2.6%p at the significance level of 95%. In addition, when the watershed condition is applied, the difference ranged from -2.3%p to 1.7%p. By applying the average impervious area ratio by land use derived in this study, it was found that the impervious area ratio of the target urban watershed could be calculated within a deviation of ±3%p.

This study set up the revenue water ratio that could be achieved within the range of the expenses of the water distribution network maintenance project, developed an analysis methodology that could estimate the additional project quantity to achieve the target revenue water ratio of 85% and applied and verified that to S. City. This methodology allowed the distribution of the leakage quantity for each leakage component by the pipeline through the total revenue water account balance analysis and BABE approach and the redistribution into the calculated leakage quantity more accurately through a step test. In addition, the level of reduction in leakage and the quantity of the project were estimated before and after the application of four strategies for the promotion of the revenue water ratio presented by IWA, according to the leakage components by the pipeline. As a result of the application of this analysis method to S. City, it would be possible to achieve up to the revenue water ratio of 81.0%, which was 74.7% in the beginning, if the water distribution network maintenance project was promoted within the range of the project expenses, and to achieve the revenue water ratio of 85.0%, the goal of the project, it would be necessary to replace the pipeline of 22.2% of the entire pipelines in the target area. As a result of the re-estimation of the revenue water ratio achievable, applying the actual water distribution network maintenance quantity in the scope of the business with the results of this analysis, the revenue water ratio was 81.7% while the actually measured revenue water ratio was 82.3%. Thus, the reliability of this analysis method could be secured to some extent.

In vitro 소화 전에는 염소고기 분할 육 중 등심에서 글리신(11.03%)이, 앞다리에서 글루타민 (53.44%)이 다른 고기 종류 및 분할육들에 비해 유의적으 로 높은 비율로 포함된 것이 확인되었다(P<0.05). In vitro 소화 후에는 염소고기 갈비 부위에서 라이신(17.54%)이 가 장 높은 비율로 포함된 것으로 확인되었으며, 소 갈비 부 위보다 유의적으로 높았다(P<0.05). 본 연구는 염소고기 분 할육의 단백질 가수분해도 및 아미노산 조성을 제공하며 단백질 소화양상 및 생체 이용률을 평가하기 위한 기초 자 료로써 활용되어질 수 있을 것으로 사료된다.

In order to determine fragility curves, the limit state of piers for each damage level is suggested in this paper based on the previous test results in Korea, including our test results. In previous studies, the quantitative measures for damage levels of piers have been represented by curvature ductility, lateral drift ratio, or displacement ductility. These measures are transformed to lateral drift ratios of piers for consistency, and the transformed values are compared and verified with our push-over test results for flexural RC piers with a circular cross-section. The test specimens are categorized concerning the number of lap-splices in the plastic hinge region and whether seismic design codes are satisfied or not. Based on the collected test results in Korea, including ours, the lateral drift ratio for each pier damage level is suggested.

In this paper, we propose a dynamic stability prediction method for heavy vehicles based on Lateral Load Transfer Ratio. The key factors influencing vehicle roll motion are the vehicle's load, the position of the center of mass, the tread and the vehicle speed. Using these factors, we derive the lateral load transfer ratio (LTR) formula. In addition, we investigated LTR changes and vehicle rollover of heavy vehicles in various scenarios using TruckSim. As a result, the threshold value of the change rate of the LTR at which the vehicle rolls over was 0.68-0.72. Finally, we performed a numerical experiment to prevent rollover by calculating the optimal speed in the rollover situation.

본 연구는 원예용 상토:마사토:재사용 암면을 100:0:0(대조 구), 80:0:20(M1), 60:30:10(M2), 40:30:30(M3), 30:40:30 (M4) 및 0:50:50(M5)의 비율(v:v:v)로 혼합한 후 상토의 물 리∙화학성과 ‘설향’ 딸기 자묘의 생육에 미치는 영향을 알아보 기 위하여 수행하였다. 상토의 물리적 측면에서는 통계적 차 이가 인정되었으며 용적밀도 및 입자밀도는 원예용 상토가 대 부분인 대조구와 M1에서 낮았으나, 재활용 암면과 마사토의 혼합비율이 높았던 M3, M4, M5에서 용적밀도와 입자밀도가 높았다. 유효수분과 완충수분에서도 비슷한 경향을 보였다. 반면 공극률과 기상률은 대조구와 M1에서 높았고 M3, M4, M5에서 낮았다. 치환성 양이온(K, Ca, Na, Mg)과 염기치환 용량(CEC)은 대조구와 M1에서 높았으며 M1, M3, M4, M5 에서 낮았다. ‘설향’ 자묘를 재배한 결과, 초장은 M2에서32.1cm로 길었고 M4에서 28.4cm로 작았으나 자묘의 생육지 표인 크라운 직경으로 판단한다면 모든 배지에서 11.23－ 12.03mm로 형성되어 자묘의 생육에 적합하다고 생각된다. 지상부, 지하부의 생체중과 건물중은 유의한 차이가 없었다. 생육 결과를 종합하였을 때, 일정 비율의 재사용 암면과 마사 토를 혼합하여도 원예용 상토만을 사용한 것과 동일한 수준의 생육을 나타내었으나, 재활용 암면과 마사토를 적정 비율로 혼합하였을 때, 공극률, 기상률 등 물리성이 개선되어 관수관 리에 유리할 것으로 판단된다.
