The survival rate of children with cancer has increased significantly from less than 30% in 1960s to 75% during the recent years with the development of modern medical technologies. As a result, the cancer of children today is no longer classified as incurable diseases. Rather, it is recognized as a chronic illness. However, children with cancer are still suffering from physical and psychosocial ailments caused by long-term hospitalization. In particular, teenagers are more likely to be affected by these problems because of interests on one's appearance and peer relationships This study investigated the relationship of the level of body distortion and disease adjustment of children with cancer, and how demographic factors, disease factors, and the level of body distortion affect disease adjustment. Data were collected between October 22, 2007 and November 16, 2007 and the total respondents consisted of 82 children, ages 10 to 18. SPSS 12.0 with descriptive statistics, t-test, correlation and multiple regression were used for data analysis. The results showed that the factors which influence the disease adjustment of children with cancer were age, school enrollment, and the level of body distortion. The result of this study has major implications for the government to provide support for children with cancer to stay in school. Additionally, programs that assist children to build positive body images need to be developed in accordance with their ages and psychosocial characteristics.

강우패턴이 유출반응에 미치는 영향을 분석하는 것은 수문연구에서 중요한 주제 중 하나이며 댐유역에 대해 기상 및 유출자료를 사용하여 이를 상세히 분석함으로써 이수기에 필요한 수자원을 예측 및 확보하는 것은 중요하다. 강우패턴이 유출반응에 미치는 영향을 상세히 분석하기 위해서는 댐유역의 상류부터 하류까지 많은 유출관측지점의 자료를 사용해야 하지만 상류의 소유역들은 대부분 미계측유역이라는 문제점이 있다. 본 연구에서는 자료공간확장 방법을 사용하여 미계측유역의 유출자료를 생성하고 이 자료들을 분석함으로써 강우패턴이 유출반응에 미치는 영향을 자세히 분석하였다. 먼저 안동댐유역내 관측유역인 안동댐, 도산, 소천유역을 대상으로 1989년부터 2009년까지의 기간 중 20개의 사상에 대하여 분포형 모형인 GRM 모형의 적용성을 조사하였으며 전반적으로 0.5 Nash-Sutcliffe 계수 이상의 타당한 모형효율성 결과를 얻었다. 그 후 자료공간확장 방법을 사용하여 안동댐 상류에 위치한 47개의 미계측 소유역들의 유출자료를 생성하였으며 세 관측유역을 포함한 총 50개 유역의 유출자료를 연구에 사용하였다. 그리고 총 50개 유역의 평균강우량 시계열 자료를 생성하고 이동평균방법을 사용하여 이 평균강우량 자료를 강우강도-지속시간 곡선으로 변환하였다. 강우패턴과 유출반응간의 관계를 분석하기 위해 합리식의 유출계수와 강우강도비율을 사용하였으며 유출계수와 강우강도비율을 계산하기 위해 유역별 도달시간을 사용하였다. 여기서 강우강도비율은 강우강도지속시간 곡선을 사용하여 첨두강우강도를 도달시간에 해당하는 평균강우강도로 나눠준 값이다. 그리고 이 유출계수와 강우강도비율을 유역면적에 대해 도시함으로써 그 경향을 조사하였다. 그 결과 20개 사상은 유출계수, 강우강도비율과 유역면적을 사용하여 물리적으로 타당한 네 가지의 타입으로 분류될 수 있었다. 이 네 가지 타입은 강우의 이동 및 분포와 상관이 있었는데 첫번째 타입은 안동댐 유역전체에 강우가 거의 등분포하는 경우, 두 번째는 강우가 유역의 상류방향으로 이동하는 경우, 세 번째는 강우가 유역의 하류방향으로 이동하는 경우, 그리고 네 번째는 강우가 유역에 무작위로 분포하는 경우였다. 이것은 어떠한 사상에 대해서도 유출계수와 강우강도비율을 유역면적에 대해 도시함으로써 강우패턴과 유출간의 관계를 분석할 수 있다는 것을 나타낸다. 그리고 이 네 가지 타입에 대한 강우사상들의 비율은 각각 65%, 20%, 10%, 그리고 5% 였다. 이 타입별 강우사상의 비율은 향후 강우-유출관계에 의한 수자원 예측 및 확보에 활용될 수 있다.

As human-based tunnel inspections are affected by the subjective judgment of the inspector, making continuous history management difficult. There is a lot of deep learning-based automatic crack detection research recently. However, the large public crack datasets used in most studies differ significantly from those in tunnels. Also, additional work is required to build sophisticated crack labels in current tunnel evaluation. Therefore, we present a method to improve crack detection performance by inputting existing datasets into a deep learning model. We evaluate and compare the performance of deep learning models trained by combining existing tunnel datasets, high-quality tunnel datasets, and public crack datasets. As a result, DeepLabv3+ with Cross-Entropy loss function performed best when trained on both public datasets, patchwise classification, and oversampled tunnel datasets. In the future, we expect to contribute to establishing a plan to efficiently utilize the tunnel image acquisition system's data for deep learning model learning.

This study reviewed the research in China on music interventions for adult brain injury patients. Eighty-three studies that met the inclusion criteria were included for analysis. Our review revealed that the number of intervention studies using music with adult brain injury patients has been on the rise since 2012, and random control research design methods have been dominant. Studies focused on the physical domain and emotional domain together were most common. Researchers in fields outside of music therapy conducted 43 of the studies, and music therapists carried out 14 of the studies as intervention providers. Most of the studies carried out by experts in fields other than music therapy used listening activities involving preexisting recorded music. However, most of the studies conducted by music therapists adopted reconstructed music and played it live during their intervention. The specificity of the described content of the interventions and level and relevance of stated rationale to the target goal of the intervention suggests that high quality of intervention was conducted with a therapist/investigator who has completed adequate professional education/training, which would emphasize the importance of music therapy professionalism. This study provides the baseline data for how music intervention research has been implemented in China and presents implications for future clinical practice and research.

In the Chinese construction industry, the utilization of Building Information Modeling (BIM) aims to increase the total output of the construction industry by solving the problem of inefficient interoperability in the construction industry. In 2011, the Chinese Ministry of Housing and Urban-Rural Development despite the technical advantages of BIM and the government policy, the BIM adoption rate in China is lower than 45%. Meanwhile, as the South Korean construction industry is a step ahead of its Chinese counterpart in introducing and utilizing BIM, it is expected that BIM is more actively utilized and accepted in South Korea than in China. According to a comparative study based on the hype-cycle theory, South Korea is at a more advanced stage of introducing BIM, than in China. This study aimed to suggest how to increase BIM utilization rates in China. To this end, this study comparatively analyzed factors affecting BIM acceptance between China and South Korea. For the comparative analysis of the BIM acceptance factors between China and South Korea, literature reviews on the technology acceptance model (TAM) and BIM acceptance model were carried out, and based on that, the BIM acceptance factors were classified. Other BIM acceptance factors were also added and considered, as they reflected Chinese national characteristics and construction industry. As for the derived BIM acceptance factors, construction project participants, especially actual BIM users in China and South Korea, were targeted for the survey. A t-test using SPSS 22.00 was carried out to identify significant differences in data. Finally, based on the t-test results, this study suggested ways of improving the BIM utilization rate in China. Based on the findings, this study is expected to contribute to activating BIM adoption in the Chinese construction industry and also to set a theoretical foundation for future studies on BIM utilization in the industry.

The purpose of this paper is to review the small unmanned aerial system (sUAS) safety policy promoted by the United States(US) government. Therefore, in this paper, along with sUAS risk factors, the risk factors of sUAS that the US government is interested in are described. In addition, the risk factors were classified into physical and non-physical factors, and provisions mentioned in the Federal Aviation Administration(FAA) Relicensing Act were reviewed. Other risk scenarios were analyzed focusing on target scenario items that the FAA is interested in, such as flight operation disruption, infrastructure damage, and facility trespassing. Of course, we looked at the risk management principles promoted by the US FAA. In this paper, as a research method, the direction and contents of the FAA's sUAS policy were studied and reviewed from the analysis of major foreign journals and policy. In the research result of this paper, by analyzing the FAA sUAS safety risk management policy, the integrated operation and safety policy, physical risk management policy, operation and safety regulation, and sUAS policy and technology direction necessary for establishing the sUAS safety risk management guide in Korea are presented. The contribution of this study is to identify the leading US sUAS safety policy direction, and it can be used as basic data for deriving future domestic policy directions from this. Based on the research results presented in the future, policy studies are needed to derive detailed implementation plans.

This study examined the changes in the cardiopulmonary functions of stroke patients by adjusting the s heart rate during walking training. This study was conducted on 20 chronic stroke patients. The experimental group conducted walking training by varying the walking speed according to the change in heart rate on the treadmill. In contrast, the control group conducted walking training by the subjective speed of the subject. The walking training was conducted for 32 minutes, three times a week, for a total of six weeks. The changes after the intervention of the subjects were determined by measuring the VC, ERV, IRV, FVC, FEV1, and PEF. The study revealed interactions between the groups and timing in the VC, ERV, and IRV(p<.05). There were no interactions between the groups and timing in FEV1, FVC, and PEF. The main effects showed no significant differences between the groups (p>.05) but showed significant differences between periods (p<.05). These results suggest that the cardiopulmonary function was improved significantly when the training was conducted by changing the pace of the heart rate in the walking process, leading to significant changes in the cardiopulmonary function.

This paper studies and analyzes the effect of illustrations in picture books on time representation with fictional picture books as the study scope. In this paper, the time type of picture books can be divided into time point, timeline and time rhythm, referring to case analysis from time symbolic elements, picture layout and picture sequence respectively. First of all, time symbolic elements are referred to the time point and time rhythm. The materialized time symbolic element is things that can directly represent time and trigger associations with time; the color symbolic element means the color changes in the real world within a certain time; the contrast of light and shadow corresponds to the changes in a day. Fast-moving objects will be presented with dashed or blurred lines, while static, stable and slow objects will be depicted with solid lines. Secondly, the picture layout of illustrations in picture books is suitable for representing the content of the timeline and describing the sequence or causality of events. Finally, the picture sequence can represent the timeline, time rhythm and "synchronicity". It will make use of visual logic to win readers' trust in time information expressed in pictures, and then follow and connect viewpoints on the basis of adapting to reading habits. The essence of time representation in picture books is to express time by space, and use different combinations of elements in space and visual guidance to convey time information.
