The experimental study aims to investigate uniaxial behavior of ultra-high-performance fiber-reinforced composite (UHPFRCC) columns with compressive strengths of 180, 150, and 120 MPa. Eleven square columns and six circular columns will be constructed and tested with uniaxial load. Main variables were the amount and spacing of transverse reinforcement, and concrete compressive strength. The amount and spacing of transverse reinforcement were chosen based on the seismic design provisions of ACI Code (ACI 318-14) and CSA Standard (CSA 2014).
In the actual research fields, the studies for applications of 180 MPa ultra-high-performance fiber reinforced composite (UHFRCC) to compressive members are limited due to its very high compressive strength. In this study, in order to find basic research data for the design specification of UHPFRCC compressive members, a series of draft experiments, including short columns with square and circular sections, were performed and its failure modes and behaviors were assessed.
Recently, national attention on the regulations for carbon dioxide emission has risen. Thus, diverse attempts are being actively carried out to reduce the resistance of ships and to develop a new propelling system that reduces the emission of carbon dioxide. This study presents to induce a way to utilize the generated wind power for the electrical energy source of a ship’s lighting, air conditioning and heating by installing a compact wind power facility on the experiment target; a small size high-speed vessel. The vessel targeted for application is a 30ft high-speed leisure boat made of aluminum alloy. The wind power facility installed on the hull and the batteries that will be charged by the electric energy generated by the wind power system were considered at the designing stage of the boat. A new presumption equation for air resistance of wind turbines and efficient measures for management are suggested based on a model test that verifies the basic performance of the wind-powered leisure boat.

Traditionally, ultraviolet (UV) has been used for treating the pressure sore and skin wound. The effects of UVA and UVB radiation on disinfection have been reported. The purpose of this study was to examine the effectiveness of UVC radiation on disinfection of Escherichia coli, Staphylococcus aureus, Salmonella typhimurium in vitro. Three bacterium were radiated by UVC (250 nm, 20 seconds) and incubated at for 24 hours at the agar culture medium. Kill rates of all three bacterium were 99.9%. UVC radiated on three kinds of bacterium for 30 or 60 seconds. Kill rates were 99.9% both 30 and 60 seconds. This data suggests that UV light at 250 nm could be a useful method to minimize infection and shorten healing time in pressure sore and skin wound condition.
This study was designed to identify the effects of walking conditions (normal walking vs. toe-walking) on electromyographic (EMG) activity of gastrocnemius, tibialis anterior, and soleus muscle. Seven healthy adult males participated in this study. The exclusion criteria were orthopedic or neurologic disease, congenital anomaly or acquired deformity, or pain in low back or lower extremities. The maximal voluntary isometric contraction for each muscle was used for the reference contraction, and EMG activity of each muscle during normal walking and toe-walking was expressed as a percentage of reference contraction. The gait cycle was determined with two foot switches, and gait was normalized as 100% gait cycle for each condition. The maximal values of EMG activity in terminal stance (30~50% of gait cycle) of each condition were compared for data analysis. No significant differences were found in EMG activity of the tibialis anterior and soleus (p>.05), whereas significant decrement was found in EMG activity of gastrocnemius during toe-walking compared to normal walking (p<.05). There is a limitation to generalize the results of this study, because small number of subjects participated for this study and only EMG was used for data collection. The treatment methods should be developed to improve gait efficiency by substituting the weakened muscles secondary to upper motor neuron, or by strengthening the distal muscles in lower extremity.
Normal balance is defined as state in which the body is equlilibrium. It is complex motor control task, requring integration of sensory information, neural processing, and biomechanical factors. There are major two factors contribute to balance control, the neurological and the musculoskeletal. The neurological factor provides the sensory processing and motor output mechanisms that are the neurophysiological basis for response. The musculoskeletal factor provides the mechanical structure for response. When all components of two factors are operating effectively, the postural response should be appropriate and effective for good balance control. Therfore, balance can be influenced by above all factors. In addition, balance can be also influenced by muscle tone, hearing, physiological factors, and environmental factors. Physical therapists must understand factors of balance control so that we can accurately assess balance. Therefore, physical therapists have to develop useful balance measurement tools to evaluate balance.
The purpose of this study were to evaluate and compare the balance ability at different conditions in normal 20 to 29 years old on unstable platform, KAT 2000(Breg, Inc., Vista, CA. 1994). Static and dynamic BI(balance index) were measured 3psi and 5psi surface conditions. Static tests were done on right and left leg separately, then both legs together with the feet apart 20cm with the eyes opened and closed. Dynamic tests were done on both legs together with apart 20cm with the eyes opened. A dynamic test was performed in which the subject moved platform in a circular manner to chase a moving object on a computer screen. Seventy healthy students(average 21.6 years, male, female) were tested. In this study applied the paired t-test and correlation to determine the statistical significance of result. The results were as follow: 1) The mean static balance index of the Rt leg was on 3psi surface condition with the eyes opened, and that of the Lt leg was . 2) The mean static balance index of the Rt leg was on 5psi surface condition with the eyes opened, and that of the Lt leg was . 3) The mean static and dynamic balance index of both legs were , on 3psi with the eyes opened, and , on 5psi respectively. 4) The mean static balance index of the Rt leg was on 3psi surface condition with the eyes closed, and that of the Lt leg was . 5) The mean static balance index of the Rt leg was on 5psi surface condition with the eyes closed, and that of the Lt leg was . 6) The mean static balance index of both legs was on 3psi surface condition with the eyes closed, and that of the 5psi was . 7) The balance index on 3psi surface condition was significantly higher than that of 5psi (p<0.05, p<0.01). 8) The balance index with the eyes closed was significantly higher than that of the eyes opened (p<0.05). 9) The balance index on the left leg was significantly higher than that of the right leg (p<0.05, p<0.01). 10) There was no correlation between static balance index and dynamic balance index. 11) Therewas no correlation between weight or height and balance index.
The purposes of this study were to measure skin temperature and blood flow on the contralateral upper extremity when heat is applied to one upper extremity, were to compare the effect of contrast bath. The subjects were 38 healthy adults with no history of peripheral vascular disease. The subjects of contrast bath were 18 persons and the subjects of warm bath were 20 persons. The subjects of one group were seated with their right arm in water() up to the mid-forearm. The subjects of the other group were seated with their right arm up to the mid-forearm in water which was changed from warm to cold using the contrast bath technique. The continually changing temperatures and blood flow were measured by an independent observer at intervals of 10, 15, 20, 25 and 30 minutes respectively after the start of the procedure. The results were as follows. The temperature of the warm bath group rose 4.28% over the pre-experimental temperatures and the temperature of the contrast bath group rose 3.41%. There was no statistically significant difference between the two groups. The blood flow of the warm bath group rose 8.31% over the pre-experimental blood flow and the blood flow of the contrast bath group rose 17.24%. There was a statistically significant between the two groups 20 minutes after the start of the procedure. Thus the contrast bath is a more effective method than the warm bath to increase blood flow.
Spasticity has been defined as a motor disorder characterised by a velocity-dependent increase in tonic stretch reflexes with exaggerated tendon jerks resulting in hyperexcitability of the stretch reflexes as one component of the upper motor neuron syndrome. Weakness and loss of dexterity, however, are considered to be more disabling to the patient than changes in muscle tone. The discussion includes the important role that alterations in the physiology of motor units, notably changes in firing rates and muscle fiber atrophy, play in the manifestation of muscle weakness. This paper considers both the neural and mechanical components of spasticity and discusses, in terms of clinical intervention, the implications arising from recent research. Investigations suggest that the resistance to passive movement in individuals with spasticity is due not only to neural mechanisms but also to changes in mechanical properties of muscle. The emphasis is on training the individual to gain control over the muscles required for different tasks, and on preventing secondary and adaptive soft tissue changes and ineffective adaptive motor behaviours.
본 논문에서는 다단계다목적함수 최적화(MLMO)를 통해 철근콘크리트 뼈대구조의 최적해를 일단계단일 목적함수 최적화(SLSO)에 의한 결과와 비교하였다. MLMO방법에 의해서 간단히 가중치(Weighting factor)를 도모함으로써 경비와 처짐의 두가지 목적함수를 만족시키는 것이 가능했으며, 단계별로 제약조건식의 수를 감소시키고, 문제형성의 비선형성을 감소시킴으로써 최적화의 과정을 효율적으로 수행할 수 있었다. 또한 각 부구조물간의 설계변수의 변화에 의한 부재력의 변화를 제약조건에 반영하기 위하여 부재력변화량 추정을 하였고 부구조물의 최적화시 부재감 결합(coupling)이 가능하도록 하였다. 부구조물의 최적화시 선형화된 구조시스템의 선형화된 목적함수와 제약조건식을 사용하여 재해석 과정을 효율적으로 감소시킬 수 있었다. 최적화 과정중 초기에는 설계변수에 대한 비교적 큰 이동한계의 사용이 가능하였으며 반복회수 4호 정도에 최적해로의 효율적인 수렴이 이루어졌다.
