The main objective of this study was to examine the effect of continu-ous aerobic training (CAT) in hypertensive, obese people. Seven pa-tients of average age (45.3±3.9 years), height (1.63±0.1 m), body weight (89.09±22.0 kg), and body mass index (33.44±8.6 kg/m2) were subjected to the training. CAT was performed in thrice-weekly nonconsecutive sessions (90 min per week) with intervals of 48 hr between each ses-sion. The training sessions entailed 30 min of walking at an intensity of 70%–80% of the maximum heart rate (MHR) on a treadmill over a period of eight weeks, giving a total of 24 sessions. Through correlation analy-ses, we found significant improvement in the systolic pressure (R=0.5675, P=0.0253) and diastolic pressure (R=0.7083, P=0.0088) when the last session was compared to the first session of training. We found no differences in the diastolic pressure and systolic pressure be-fore, during and after 15 min of the protocol exercise. The program showed a large effect size (ES) for systolic pressure (ES=0.85) and a small ES for diastolic pressure (ES=0.33). We found no differences in the blood pressure (BP) and heart rate (HR) during and after the training of obese hypertensive humans, but we found a positively significant correlation between HR and BP in the last session and a large ES, sug-gesting that this protocol exercise might have significance effect in the long term.

The cultivation of sweet corn is expanding in Brazil, but there are serious constraints about the availability of commercial cultivars. The selection of superior sweet corn genotypes can be performed based on selection indexes based on plant agronomic characteristics. Thus, the objective of this work was to compare selection indexes to select sweet corn genotypes aiming greater productions. The experiment was conducted at the Vegetable Experimental Station of the Federal University of Uberlândia, Campus Monte Carmelo. Eighteen sweet corn accessions (F3 generation) were evaluated. The selection indexes applied to the agronomic characteristics of sweet corn were: direct and indirect, the sum of ranks, desired gains and ideotype indexes. The characteristics evaluated presented significant differences among genotypes, except for stem diameter, prolificacy and grain number per corncob. The coefficients of variation were below 30%, and the genetic parameters were satisfactory for most of the characteristics. The greatest gains with direct selection were in production (21.23%) and productivity of commercial sweet corn ear (15.19%), however, the indirect gains are unsatisfactory for sweet corn selection, and the sum of ranks index provided a balanced distribution of gains. The sweet corn genotypes L2P11, L2P37, P45, L2L5P3, and L5P18 presented a superior performance for the set of characters evaluated.

A Super-twisting Controller for Active Control of Ground Vehicles with Lateral Tire-road Friction Estimation and CarSim Validation

Lucien Etienne,Cuauhtémoc Acosta Lúa,Stefano Di Gennaro,Jean-Pierre Barbot 제어·로봇·시스템학회 2020 International Journal of Control, Automation, and Vol.18 No.5

In this paper, a ground vehicle equipped with Active Front Steering (AFS) and Rear Torque Vectoring (RTV) is considered. The AFS, actuated through the front tires, adds an incremental steer angle on top of the driver’s input, whereas the RTV, actuated through the rear tires, imposes a yaw torque to the vehicle. These actuators allow the active control of the vehicle chassis, so that a feasible and safe reference trajectory can be tracked. To obtain such a feasible reference generation and an efficient control action, the lateral tire-road friction coefficient has to be estimated. To this aim, in this paper the lateral tire-road friction coefficient is estimated in finite-time by means of a high-order sliding mode differentiator. Then, based on this estimation, a high-order sliding mode controller is designed to track the desired references. The performance of the dynamic controller is evaluated using a CarSim virtual vehicle, and the simulation results highlight the characteristics of the proposed observer-based control.

Ideologies in Korean Language Teaching

이 논문은 두 시리즈의 현행 한국어 교과서: 한국에서 출판된 서강 한국어 , 미국에서 출판된 교과서 Integrated Korean에 나타나는 한국어 교육의 이데올로기를 비평담론 분석(critical discourse analysis)를 통해 심도 있게 분석한다. 본 논문을 통해 두 교과서가 한국어, 한국 문화, 한국에서의 한국어 학습자의 사회적 위치 등을 어떻게 표현해내는가를 중점적으로 논하고자 한다. 분석 항목은 다음과 같다: 교과서 대화문에 등장하는 인물들의 성별과 인종, 다른 성별과 인종을 가진 인물들이 대화문에서 차지하는 비중의 정도, 인물들의 존댓말, 반말 사용의 형태, 교과서에 실린 문화 노트(cultural notes)에 나오는 다양한 문화적인 요소. 본 논문은 또한 교과서 대화문의 내용과 문화 노트의 내용 사이에 존재하는 충돌에 대한 분석을 담고 있다. 예를 들어, 교과서 대화문은 한국을 다양한 국적을 가진 사람들이 함께 어우러져서 살아가는 환경을 가진 곳이라고 표현하는 반면, 교과서 문화 노트는 한국의 단일 문화주의적인 모습을 보여준다. 본 논문은 한국어 교육자들에 대한 시사점을 논하며 끝을 맺는다.

Observations on Korean and Japanese Speech Style Shifting

( Lucien Brown ) 한국어문학국제학술포럼 2010 Journal of Korean Culture Vol.14 No.-

이 논문에서는 한국어와 일본어의 청자 경어법 교체 사용(speech style shifting)을 분석하고자 한다. 지금까지 국어학, 일본어학 양쪽에서 교체 사용에 대한 논의가 있어 왔지만 아직까지 이 두 언어의 교체 사용 간에 생기는 유사점과 차이점에 대한 연구를 찾기 힘들다. 본문에서는 기존 학자들의 연구를 요약하여 한국어, 일본어의 청자 경어법 교체 사용을 비교한다. 일본어학의 청자 경어법 교체는 주로 신분을 교체하는 역할을 나타내는 반면 국어학에서는 주로 전략적으로 (불)공손함을 표시한다. 이러한 차이점은 양쪽 학자들이 택한 이론적 배경과 관련이 있겠지만 언어학적 차이와도 깊은 관계가 있다. 특히 한국어의 해요체("polite" {Y} speech style)는 존댓말에 속하지만 이는 비공식적인 존댓말로 화자의 감정 또는 주관적인 의견의 표현과 혼용되고 있어 일본어의 교체 사용과는 차이를 보인다. 중간 위치를 차지하는 해요체가 있으므로 한국어에서 생기는 존대 화체에서 하대 화체로의 교체(또는, 반대로 하대 화체에서 존대 화체)는 일본어에서 생기는 유사한 교체 현상보다 유표적이다. In this paper, I look into patterns of speech style shifting inKorean and Japanese. Although speech style shifting has been analyzed both within Korean and Japanese linguistics, as yet no studies have looked at the similarities and differences as to how this is achieved in the two languages. The current paper summarized how previous researchers have conceptualized this speech style shifting in the two languages. Whereas in Japanese, shifting is primarily seen as playing the role of allowing speakers to shift identity, Korean scholars have primarily seen it as being applied for strategic (im)politeness. Although this difference to some extent reflects the different academic backgrounds of the scholars, it also points up an important linguistic difference between Korean and Japanese. In particular, speech style shifting in Korean seems to work differently due to the existence of a speech style that is "honorific", but that is also informal and can occur with the expression of affect - the "polite" {Y} style. I claim that, due to the existence of this middle-ground style, in Korean, switching between "honorific" and "non-honorific" styles is more restricted and more marked.

As part of a larger project into the acquisition of tense-aspect marking in Korean, this paper reports the findings of a piece of experimental research looking into "when" and "how" second language learners of Korean develop use of the progressive marker "ko issta". The paper sets out to test the claims made by the aspect hypothesis (Shirai 1991, Andersen & Shirai 1996) regarding acquisition of progressive marking; namely that (1) progressive marking is acquired first on activity verbs and later on accomplishment and achievement verbs and that (2) learners do not commit "errors" of using progressive marking with state verbs. However, we acknowledge several problems in applying these claims to Korean: (1) since "-ko issta" can be more easily omitted with activity verbs than with other verb types, it appears questionable that progressive marking is acquired primarily with activity verbs in the case of Korean; (2) in contradiction to claims that learners do not "mis-use" progressive marking with state verbs, Korean "-ko issta" frequently occurs with a category of such verbs (cognitive/emotive) verbs in native speaker talk and (3) Korean verbs of wearing may operate both as accomplishment and as achievement verbs, resulting in dual readings when used with progressive marking. Data was collected through a cloze-style test sat by 40 learners of Korean (20 at elementary level and 20 at advanced level) and retrospective interviews. Analysis of the results can be summarized as follows: (1) contrary to the claims of the aspect hypothesis, progressive marking in L2 Korean occurs first on accomplishment rather than activity verbs, (2) Korean L2 learners acquire progressive marking on cognitive-emotive verbs at a late stage and struggle to fully grasp the meaning even at advanced levels, (3) with verbs of wearing, learners acquire the "accomplishment" reading first and the "achievement" meaning later. We conclude the paper by discussing the implications of this research for Korean language education and by making concrete recommendations as to how teaching of this important point of tense-aspect can be improved.
