This study aims to empirically investigate effects of motion repetition and external load according to joint motion on discomfort through an experiment. Eighteen college students (female: 9; male: 9) participated in an experiment measuring perceived discomfort using the Borg CR10. Joint(wrist, elbow, shoulder and trunk) motion, its repetition and external load were adopted as independent variables. The results showed that all three independent variables were statistically significant on discomfort. Participants’ sex also significantly affected discomfort obtained in the experiment. While the interactions of joint motion and repetition, and joint motion and external load were not significant at α = 0.05, that of motion repetition and external load was significant. Based on the experimental results, four regression equations by the joints involved were presented, which could be used as a tool for evaluating postural loads by the joints. It may be postulated that based on the results of this study, scoring systems of RULA and REBA, and those of OWAS and REBA underestimates effects of motion repetition and external load, respectively. It is expected that the results of this study will be used as a basic data for developing an observational method properly reflecting the effects of motion repetition and external load.

본 연구에서는 유한요소해석 D/B를 기반으로 보간식을 산출하여 개활지 폭발현상에 의해 기둥에 작용하는 폭압이력을 예측하는 모델을 개발했다. D/B 구성을 위해 7종류 기둥 너비에 대해 총 70회의 유한요소해석을 수행했다. 제안하는 방법의 성능확인을 위해, 기존에 제시된 경험식 기반의 예측식과의 비교연구를 수행했다. 또한, D/B를 구성하는 point 외의 영역에서의 예측 정확도 확인을 위 해 유한요소해석 결과와의 비교/검증 연구를 추가로 수행했다. 제안하는 방법은 기존의 경험식 기반 예측식에 비해 유한요소해석 결 과와 유사한 결과를 산출함을 확인했다.

Background: There are insufficient objective or quantitative evidence for the better intervention to improve proprioception particularly for the application of external load. There are conflicting opinions whether the external load is effective for proprioception improvement or not. Objects: The purpose of this study was to investigate effects of external load on proprioception of shoulder joint quantitatively using 3D motion capture system. Methods: Nine healthy adults joined for this study. They were asked to perform scapular plane abduction motion with attaching reflective markers on the trunk and upper limb. The 3D positions of finger marker, while they performed the same task with and without external load, were recorded and analyzed. Results: All participants showed decreased variable errors in the vertical direction when the external load was applied (p<.02). Even though other directions (y, z) and absolute errors increased, they did not have statistical significances. Conclusion: Based on this study results, the external load application would be effective for shoulder joint position sense improvement.

본 논문에서는 원통형 쉘에 부착된 노즐의 구조 건전성평가를 수행하고 그 결과를 비교하기 위해 2차원(2D)과 3차원(3D)해석이 수행되었다. 현재 원자력 발전소에서 사용되는 3개의 노즐을 구조 건전성평가를 위해 선정하였고, 각각 노즐은 내부압력, 온도변화 및 외부하중을 받는다. 내부압력에 대한 2D 해석은 1.5이상의 계수 값을 이용하거나 응력집중 계수를 적용하여야 하고, 온도변화에 대한 2D와 3D 해석결과는 피복재의 유무와 상관없이 서로 거의 비슷하며, 외부하중에 대한 WRC Bulletin 297에 의한 해석결과는 3D 해석결과보다 더 보수적임을 확인할 수 있었다.

This paper presents a new numerical method to analyse tensegrity structures by using singular value decomposition and force method. The tensegrity system consisting of compressive and tensle elements are pin-jointed system. Tensegrity structures, unlike the general structure should be preceded by form-finding. Tensegrity structures form-finding of the self-equilibrium stress stability, seeking to have the process. In this study, tensegrity structures when subjected to external loads, find the optimal pre-stress values was studied.

In this paper, 30 years of aged bridge in service used external post-tendons method flexural strengthening, was carried out the loading test and structural analysis in order to verify the performance improvement effect before and after strengthening. This experimental test results will be improvement of load carrying capacity for aged bridges

In this Study, the dynamic movement of concrete bounded by steel-band on reinforced-concrete column the external sides of which were reinforced by steel band has been evaluated as a case of post-tension engineering. Total five different experimental objectives were made and the rate of deformation of each binding concrete depending on different binding power forced to steel-band and locations of primary roots and different interval distances between reinforcing materials been checked.
