The purpose of this study is to examine the activity ratios of global trunk muscles and local trunk muscles in relation to adjustments in the level of task difficulty while performing stability exercises in easily applied bridging lumbar stabilization exercise. Twenty healthy subjects performed bridging lumbar stabilization exercise while the level of task difficulty was plate was used in the same posture for all the exercises. EMG was used to examine the activity ratios of the global muscles and multifidus in relation to the level of task difficulty. Moreover, the activity ratios of the multifidus muscle, the erector spinae and the gluteus maximus muscle were measured. A one-way ANOVA with repeated measures was used, and a Bonferroni correction was conducted (=.05). When the bridging lumbar stabilization exercise were performed at different difficulty levels, the activity of the multifidus muscle, which is a local muscle, was high in all three exercises. Also, compared to low intensity and intermediate intensity exercises, high intensity exercises showed more significant differences (=.05). Among all the muscles, the multifidus showed the highest activity at intermediate intensity. Based on these results, we suggest that in the case of bridging lumbar stabilization exercise, low intensity or intermediate intensity exercises are more suitable and efficient for local muscle stabilization.

The time variations in relative humidity observed at the Gangjeong (Goryeong) Reservoir in the Nakdong River over a one-year period (September 2012–August 2013) were analyzed with the Bowen ratio. The thermal vertical scale of the reservoir was also evaluated following Yamamoto’s method. The study’s results showed that the relative humidity at the reservoir was higher than that of the Daegu Meteorological Observatory (inland) all year round. The difference was slightly larger at nighttime (17–20 %) than at daytime (13–15 %) in all seasons except summer. The quantitative order of latent heat flux was summer, spring, autumn, and winter. This finding signifies that the thermal vertical scale of the reservoir corresponds to that of a shallow lake. The Bowen ratio was smallest at midday of the summer season. In other words, the net radiation energy was converted more as latent heat flux than sensible heat flux during a higher temperature period.

개인피폭선량계인 열형광선량계(TLD)와 광자극형광선량계(OSLD)를 진단방사선 영역에서 사용할 때 에너지와 조사 횟수, 투시촬영 시간, 산란선 노출 일 수 등에 따라 측정값이 차이가 있는지를 상대비와 상대비 간격으로 알아보았다. 에너지에 따라서는 TLD의 상대비(1.81±0.41)가 OSLD의 상대비(1.40±0.26)보다 높았고, 조사 횟수에 따라서는 TLD의 상대비(2.10±0.10,)보다 OSLD의 상대비(2.33±0.09)가 더 높았다. 투시촬영 시간에 따른 상대비와 산란선 노출일수에 따른 상대비는 두 선량계가 유의한 차이가 없었으나 산란선 노출일수에 따른 상대비의 간격이 0.2 이내로 나타나 직접선의 상대비 간격보다 좁았다. 이는 직접선의 측정결과보다 산란선의 측정에 있어 TLD와 OSLD의 결과값에신뢰가 높다고 할 수 있다. 따라서 방사선 피폭상황에 따라 선량계 간에 상대비가 다소 차이가 날 수 있음을 인지하고,경우에 따라서는 두 가지 선량계를 이용하여 교차평가를 함으로써 선량 측정 결과값에 대한 신뢰성을 높일 수 있을 것이다.
