Background: It has been argued that changes in muscle activity in the upper trapezius and serratus anterior may or may not cause shoulder joint pain and dysfunction. Objective: To investigate the effects of active vibration exercise on muscle activity regarding scapular stabilization using a flexi-bar. Design: A randomized controlled trial. Methods: A total of 24 subjects were randomly assigned to a flexi-bar group with active vibration and general stick group with non-active vibration. Both groups performed the same four action programs for 6 weeks, three times a week for 30 minutes at a time. The upper trapezius muscle, middle trapezius muscle, lower trapezius muscle and serratus anterior muscle of the dominant side was measured by electromyography before and after the 6 weeks of exercise. The independent t-test and paired t-test were used to analyze data. Results: There was a significant difference between groups in upper trapezius muscle and serratus anterior muscle activity after exercise (P<.05). Also, there was a significant difference in upper trapezius muscle and serratus anterior muscle activity before and after exercise in the flexi-bar group (P<.05). Conclusion: This study demonstrates that active vibration exercise using a flexi-Bar contribute to reduce the activity of the upper trapezius muscle and promote the activity of the serratus anterior muscle.

Background: The importance of postural stabilization and cervical mobilization in subjects with pain from the anterior head posture is drawing more attention. However, studies on head and neck stabilizing intervention after mobilization are lacking. Objective: To examine the effects of Kinesiotaping and posture setting exercise on forward head posture (FHP). Design: Crossover Study Design Methods: The subjects were 17 male and female college students in their 20s with FHP. They were randomized into the Kinesiology taping group (KTG) with 9 subjects and posture stabilizing exercise group (PSEG) with 8 subjects. The intervention was conducted for 4 weeks, and changes in pain, craniovertebral angle (CVA), and proprioception were observed before and after intervention. Results: Pain was significantly reduced in the KTG and PSEG both before and after intervention. CVA and proprioception were significantly increased only in the PSEG. The differences in CVA and proprioception between the two groups were significant. Conclusions: These findings suggest that the application of posture setting exercise could decrease pain, proprioceptive error and increase CVA on FHP

The purpose of this study was to investigate the effects of occipital bone stimulation by cervical stabilizing exercise on the muscle tone, stiffness, ROM, and cervical lordosis in patient with forward head posture( FHP). This study was a case study of a single patient with forward head posture. This study used a ABA' design, A and A' were the baseline phases and B was the intervention phase. The intervention was occipital bone stimulation by cervical stabilization exercise. It was administered once daily for 7 days. The therapist kept hands together, and placed the two index fingers under the subject's occipital bone. The subject performed the chin-in exercise with a maximum isometric contraction for 20 sec.The exercise was implemented by performing the movements 10 times as a set and repeating the set three times. The muscle tone was not significantly changed after intervention. However, the stiffness was decreased and lasted the effect lasted without intervention. The cervical flexion angle was increased, but the cervical extension angle was not significantly changed after the intervention. The left and right lateral flexion angles were increased and the effect lasted without any intervention. However, the left and right rotation angles were significantly changed after the intervention. Cervical lordosis increased not from 37° to 41° after the intervention. These results suggest that occipital bone stimulation by cervical stabilizing exercise had a positive effect on cervical stiffness, flexion and lateral flexion ROM, and lordosis in a patient with forward head posture.

In order to get stabilized pure retinol in skin care cosmetics, developing the three layered matrix bead capsules were studied. This study relates to make a cosmetic composition using the three layered matrix capsule that could increase the stability of the active ingredient. A primary encapsulation, vitamin A (pure retinol) of active ingredient was perfectly capsulated into water-in-oil (Water-in-Oil: W/O) emulsion vesicle using PEG-10 dimethicone copolyol emulsifier. A secondary encapsulation of multiple emulsion of the water-in-oil-in-water (W/O/W) emulsion blending W/O emulsion using sucrose distearate of surfactant was developed using homogenizing emulsifying system. Pure retinol of active ingredient was stably capsulized to inside the W/O/W-multiple emulsion in order to load the triple matrix capsulation. By coating it with a polymer matrix base, encapsulated in the triple layered type, which were developed bead encapsulation of 2~10mm uniformly size.

Impaired respiratory function is common in patients with stroke. The purpose of this study were to investigate the effectiveness of exercises and to assess forced vital capacity and peak cough flow after completion of neck stabilizing and respiratory reeducation exercises (combining diaphragmatic breathing and pursed-lip breathing exercises). The 45 participants were randomly assigned to an experimental group 1 (n1=15), experimental group 2 (n2=15), and a control group (n3=15). All subjects performed conservative physical therapy for 30 minutes. Experimental group 1 undertook the neck stabilizing exercise and the respiratory reeducation exercise. Experimental group 2 undertook the respiratory reeducation exercise. Additional exercise did not exceed 30 minutes, five times a week for six weeks. The subjects were assessed for deep neck flexor thickness and breathing function (forced vital capacity, forced expiratory volume at one second, forced expiratory volume at one second/forced vital capacity, peak expiratory flow, and manual assisted peak cough flow) at pre-post value. The results of this study were as follows. Experimental group 1 showed a significant increase only in deep neck flexor thickness change rate (p<.05). All groups showed significant increases in forced vital capacity, forced expiratory volume at one second, and peak expiratory flow in pre-post measurement (p<.05). Experimental groups 1 and 2 showed an increase in manual assisted peak cough flow in pre-post measurement (p<.05). There was no significant difference between experimental group 1 and experimental group 2, but experimental group 1 improved more than experimental group 2 in respiratory function as a whole. In conclusion, these findings suggest that the neck stabilizing exercise in combination with the respiratory reeducation exercise can improve forced vital capacity and peak cough flow in patients with stroke.

본 연구에서는 중금속 오염토양 및 광미의 고형화 처리를 위한 보통 포틀랜드 시멘트의 혼화재로서 제강슬래그의 처리효과를 검토하였다. 대상시료는 충청남도 청양군 남양면 구룡리의 구봉광산 주변 하천퇴적토와 강원도 영월군 상동읍 내덕리의 상동광산에 위치한 광미를 채취하여 사용하였다. 경화제는 시멘트 95%에 제강슬래그 분말 5%를 혼합하여 제조하였으며, 하천퇴적토 및 광미오염토양에 5%, 10% 및 15%(w/w)의 경화제를 첨가하였다. 이때 이 결과들은 시멘트만을 사용한 것과 Ca 함량이 제강슬래그 보다 상대적으로 높은 굴폐각 분말을 사용하여 배합한 결과와 함께 비교하였다. 공시체는 지름 5cm, 높이 10 cm의 몰드를 이용하여 혼합토를 채워 넣은 후, 습윤양생기에서 1일간 양생시킨 다음 탈형 후, 수조에 수중양생을 실시하였다. 7일, 14일 및 28일 경과된 시료를 대상으로 강도시험 및 중금속 용출시험을 실시하여 처리효과를 비교·검토하였다. 광미시료의 경우, 시멘트, 제강슬래그 그리고 굴폐각 순으로 강도 개선의 효과가 큰 것으로 나타나 제강슬래그의 효과를 확인할 수 없었고, 하천퇴적토의 경우는 혼합비 15%에서 제강슬래그를 혼합한 경우에서 우수한 효과를 나타내 혼화재로서 적용을 기대할 수 있을 것으로 판단되었다. 폐기물용출시험 및 0.1 N 염산추출법 결과 경화제의 혼합비가 증가할수록 중금속 및 비소의 농도가 감소하는 경향이 나타났고 특히 비소에 있어서는 제강슬래그의 효과가 가장 좋게 나타났다. 산도가 가장 높은 1N 염산추출법의 결과에서는 광미의 경우 대조구 보다 제강슬래그로 처리한 시료에서 중금속 및 비소의 농도가 아주 낮게 나타났다. 그러나 하천퇴적토는 대조구와 큰 차이가 없이 중금속 및 비소가 용출되었다. 이는 하천퇴적토가 95%이상의 모래로 토양의 입경이 크기 때문에 상대적으로 중금속의 고정화율이 상대적으로 낮은 것으로 판단되었다.

There is increasing interest in zirconia as a dental material due to its aesthetics, as well as the exceptionally high fracture toughness and high strength that are on offer when it is alloyed with certain oxides like yttria. In recent years, many solution based chemical synthesis methods have been reported for synthesis of zirconia, of which the sol-gel method is considered to be best. Here, we synthesize zirconia by a sol gel assisted precipitation method using either PEG or PVA as a stabilizing agent. Zirconia sol is first synthesized using the hydrothermal method. We used NaOH as the precipitating agent in this method because it is easy to remove from the final solution. Zirconium and yttrium salts are used as precursors and PEG or PVA are used as stabilizers to separate the metal ions. The resulting amorphous zirconia powder is calcined at 900˚C for 2 h to get crystallized zirconia. XRD analysis confirmed the partially stabilized zirconia synthesis in all the synthesized powders. SEM was taken to check the morphology of the powder synthesized using either PEG or PVA as a stabilizing agent and finally the transparency was calculated. The results confirmed that the powder synthesized with 10 % PVA as the stabilizing agent had highest percentage of transparency among all the synthesized powder.

케이블 돔은 초기에 불안정한 상태에서 각각의 케이블에 장력을 도입하면서 점차적으로 안정화되는 구조이다. 이러한 과정은 케이블에 압축력이 발생하게 되며, 일반적인 구조해석으로는 그 해를 찾을 수 없으므로 이 논문에서는 동적이완법을 사용한다. 또한, 안정화 이행과정해석을 실제적인 문제에 적용하는 방법으로 서울올림픽 체조경기장 케이블 돔 지붕에 적용함으로써 해석결과와 실측결과를 비교하고 안정화 이행과정해석의 적절함을 검증한다.

플라즈마 화학기상증착법에 의해 증착된 저유전율 SiOF박막의 물성 안정화를 위하여 증착후 N2O플라즈마로 열처리함으로써 그 특성을 평가하였다. SiOF박막은 대기방치 및 열처리에 불안정한 성질을 가진다. SiOF 박막은 박막내의 F-Si-F 결합의 존재 때문에 흡습현상이 발생하며, 박막내의 F함량이 증가함에 따라 수분 흡수가 증가한다. 또한 열처리를 거치면서 F이 탈착되어 박막내의 F함량이 감소한다. N2O플라즈마 열처리는 표면에 얇은 SiON층을 형성시킴으로써 박막을 안정화시키는데 효과적이었다. 그러나 장시간의 N/sun 2/O플라즈마 열처리는 유전율을 크게 증가시킨다. 따라서 N2O플라즈마 열처리에 의한 유전율의 증가없이 물성을 안정화 시키기 위해서는, 대기방치나 열처리에 의한 안정화 효과를 유지하면서 N2O플라즈마 열처리에 의한 유전율의 증가를 최소화시킬 수 있는 공정의 확립이 필요하다.

항만간 허브항 경쟁이 극심해 지고 있는 오늘날, 컨테이너 선사는 M&A 및 전략적 제휴로 컨테이너터미널 운영사와의 가격 협상력의 우월적 지위를 갖게 되어 컨테이너터미널 운영사간에 선사 및 화물유치를 위한 경쟁을 더욱 부추기고 있다. 그러나 수요측면에서 컨테이너물동량 증가율 둔화로 컨테이너터미널에서 처리해야 할 물동량은 한정되어 있는 반면, 공급 측면에서 항만터미널의 지속적인 건설은 항만간 또는 터미널간 물량 유치경쟁을 과열시키고 있다. 특히 부산항은 신항 개장이후 북항과 신항간 물동량 유치경쟁으로 인하여 항만하역시장의 교란을 가져오고 있다. 본 연구에서는 부산항 컨테이너 항만하역시장의 구조적 특성분석과 설문조사 방법론을 통하여 향후 부산항 항만 하역시장의 안정화 방안을 제시하고자 한다. 하역시장 안정화 방안으로 항만하역 요율결정체계 개선, 요금신고제도의 개선 및 공정경쟁규약의 제정 등과 같은 법 제도적 개선방안과 컨테이너터미널 운영사별 처리물량 상한제를 도입을 전제로한 항만풀링제도 및 물량연동 임대료제도의 도입방안을 제안한다.
