This study examines the structure of intergenerational relationship and its effects on old-age security of the Korean society. Of interest is the effects of the middle aged's attitudes on old parents'security on their intergenerational exchange relationship and on their own old-age security as well. This study also attempts to test the applicability of the social exchange perspective to the study of intergenerational support relationship in Korea The social exchange perspective considers intergenerational relationship as an exchange of aids and rewards between generations. However due to strong norm of filial duty and inadequate welfare system, supporting old parents is regarded as younger generation's duty in Korea This study utilizes a survey data conducted by Kim et al.(2000). Major findings can be summarized as follows. First, the middle aged who gives one-sided supports to their parents tends to have the traditional attitude on old parents' security. It implies that intergenerational support relationship in Korea is not consistent with the explanations from the social exchange perspective. This study suggests a 'chained reward system'as an altermative explaining the intergenerational relationship. Second, an absolute majority of the middle aged tend to think that they are responsible for their own old-age security regardless of the pattern of intergenerational support relationship and attitudes on old parents' security. It implies that the middle aged in Korea holds the status of 'marginal men' who supports their parents but can't take the similar supports from their children.

In this paper, an electromagnetic analysis methodology using reaction theorem based on reciprocity theorem is presented for the aspheric ogival radome applied to a missile and/or airborne radar. The presented analysis methodology is verified using actual measured data. The type of antenna assumed to develope the methodology is a waveguide slot array antenna, and has the structure of 2 axes monopulse of "X" type. The shape of radome is assumed as Von Karman and the ratio of length to base diameter(L/D) is assumed to be 2:1. The electrical characteristics of the radome are measured using radome measurement system and the results are compared to the values estimated using the presented analysis methodology. It is found that the comparison shows good agreement. It is expected that the presented methodology can be applied for the development of missile and airborne radome.

The flash lamp annealing (FLA) process has been considered highly promising for manufacturing low-temperature polysilicon on large-scale backplanes. Based on a theoretical estimation, this study clarifies the critical mechanisms of glass backplane deformation during the FLA process. A simulation using a commercial FEM code with viscoelastic models shows that the local region, whose temperature is larger than the glass softening point, undergoes permanent structural shrinkage owing to stress relaxation. For larger backplanes (4th Gen), structural shrinkages and gravitational deflection are critical to deformation in the FLA process, resulting in an "M" shape; in smaller backplanes (0th Gen), the latter is negligible, resulting in a "U" shape.

As the demand for electric power increases, all devices operating in power stations and all devices adopted in order to deliver distant loads need to be operating in perfect condition at the level of reliability expected by consumers. In general, the lifetime of cables used in delivering high power is declared to be 30 years from the time of production. Deterioration (which is the worsening of electric properties) starts from the very moment of operation. In spite of the reduction in reliability caused by deterioration, the reality is that cables often operate at considerable risk of accidents because the reliability of operation has not been diagnosed. We have invented a device to diagnose the deterioration processes of high-voltage power cables. It has been installed and is currently operating at Korea Western Power Co., Ltd., located in Chungnam, Korea. In previously published papers we have shown graphs obtained by plotting insulation resistances versus time, through analyzing the data extracted from operating cables using the devices we have invented. In this paper, we verify that the previously plotted graphs agree with the life time index of Weibull distribution of probability.

The depression and anxiety are the most popular mental disorders and not easy to distinguish because of their lots of similarities in the diagnostic criteria, related theories, and clinical symptoms. In this article, we developed the affect scale for distinguishable diagnosis, utilized the relationships between the Positive and Negative affect, and the depression and anxiety. We made up the seed scale of the items which selected by partial correlation, and set the scoring up by multiple regression method. The Multi-dimentional affect scale is reliable and working similarly as the scales used before, but less correlated to each other. We conclude that the affect scale achieved the diagnosis for distinguish between depression and anxiety. Our suggestions for the further study are to redeem the cultural differences, modify by the elaborate methods, and validate by the actual clinical data.

This study carried out a geometrical nonlinear dynamic analysis of laminated composite shell structures. Based on the first-order shear deformation shell theory and nonlinear formulation of Sanders, the Newmark method and Newton-Raphson iteration are used for dynamic solution considering nonlinear effects. The effects of radius, fiber angles, and layup sequences on the nonlinear dynamic response for various parameters are studied using a nonlinear dynamic finite element program developed for this study. The several numerical results were in good agreement with those reported by other investigators for square composite plates, and the new results reported in this paper show the significant interactions between the radius, fiber angles and layup sequence in the laminate. Key observation points are discussed and a brief design guideline of laminated composite shells is given.

The field of neural networks has been a recent surge in activity as a result of progress in developments of efficient training algorithms. For this reason, and coupled with the widespread availability of powerful personal computer hardware for running simulations of networks, there is increasing focus on the potential benefits this field can offer. The neural network may be viewed as an advanced pattern recognition technique and can be applied in many areas such as financial time series forecasting, medical diagnostic expert system and etc.. The intention of this study is to build and implement one simple artificial neural networks hereinafter called ANN. For this purpose, some literature survey was undertaken to understand the structures and algorithms of ANN theoretically. Based on the review of theories about ANN, the system adopted 3-layer back propagation algorithms as its learning algorithm to simulate one case of medical diagnostic model. The adopted ANN algorithm was performed in PC by using turbo PASCAL and many input parameters such as the numbers of layers, the numbers of nodes, the number of cycles for learning, learning rate and momentum term. The system output more or less successful results which nearly agree with goals we assumed. However, the system has some limitations such as the simplicity of the programming structure and the range of parameters it can dealing with. But, this study is useful for understanding general algorithms and applications of ANN system and can be expanded for further refinement for more complex ANN algorithms.

In order to describe external effects on the behavior of the adhesive tape, the semi-rigid body cylinder chain model for adhesive tape has been proposed as follows. Firstly the behavior of the tape is in detail investigated while it's being pulled off from the plate, and subsequently a relevant phenomenological model is designed. Then all the contributors affecting the force to peel out the tape from plate (hereafter, the pull out force) are clearly defined and their sensitivity analyses are made to set up the experimental reference condition, under which the angular dependence of the pull out force is measured in every $10^{\circ}$. The experimental data turn out to be in good agreement with the theoretical ones by our model within the measurement error, and the effects due to other factors are proved to be well explained from the phenomenological viewpoint. From these results, the concept of this study might be expected to be very useful for the test and evaluation of PSA types of adhesive tape.

Field practicum is the core of Social Work education and plays a key role in the integration of theory and practice. To maximize the effectiveness of field education, it is important that both the faculty field liaison and field instructor are cooperated. However, the current field education is almost dependent on the supervision by field instructors. This study explores the perception on the areas of supervision by using the Q-methodology. As a result, the perception of faculty field liaison was categorized into three types and field instructors' was two. Their types of perception were partially overlapped rather than contrast. Findings of the study suggested the need for greater collaboration between academia and agencies.
