Special security guards play the role to safely operate and manage nuclear power plants from unintended internal and external threats. Physical fitness management of special security guards is one of the most important factors for improving and maintaining the level of physical protection. Thus, the purpose of this study is to analyze the physical fitness factor and physical fitness level required for mission accomplishment through job analysis of special security guards. The special security guards of Nuclear Power Plant in Korea were performing 7 jobs, 26 duties, 159 tasks. In order to accomplish theses tasks, the following physical fitness were required: muscle strength and muscle endurance of the hand, upper limb, lower limb and core, quickness, agility and Cardio function. The duties that require a lot of physical fitness were in the order of conducting arrest and self-defense, conducting unarmed defensive tactics, demonstrating proficiency with semiautomatic rifle, using protective equipment, performing emergency plan and defensive strategy, etc. The results of this study are expected to provide basic data necessary for establishing guidelines for fitness qualification and training of special security guards in the future and contribute to enhancement of physical protection of nuclear power plants.

When manufacturing Alaska pollack Gadus chalcogrammus surimi for 3D printing, it examined the characteristics of physical properties and sensuality by adding polysaccharides alginic acid [0, 1, 2, 3% (w/w)]. As a result of the color value of surimi by adding alginic acid, it showed that the lightness of heated surimi containing 2% (w/w) alginic acid was the highest and ∆E value was the lowest. In the changes in physical properties, the heated surimi of 3% (w/w) alginic acid content showed the lowest values of hardness, springiness, cohesiveness, gumminess, chewiness and resilience, but the highest adhesiveness. In the case of fried surimi, its hardness, cohesiveness, gumminess, chewiness and resilience were the lowest at the content of 3% (w/w) alginic acid. After 7 days of cold storage, the hardness, gumminess, and chewiness of heated surimi with an alginic acid content of 2% (w/w) were significantly higher, and fried surimi was also the same. In the results of the sensory evaluation, there were significant differences according to the alginic acid content in hardness and fishy smell, and as the alginic acid content increased, it felt more fishy smell, resulting in poor preference.

The Seonwonjeon(璿源殿) in the Deoksugung Palace was initially the ritual space for the royal family affiliated with the Gyeongungung Palace during the Korean Empire. It is currently, however, empty, as a landscape restoration and maintenance plan is established as a part of the restoration project for the Seonwonjeon area. The following results were obtained through the historical investigation of the original form and examination of similar cases. First, the original topography of the backside grove, which had been in the Seonwonjeon area, is 3.0-5.0m higher than the base of the building, and a terraced flower bed(花階) was installed on the border of the green to set off the difference in a scenic way. Second, the backside grove was composed with fruit trees to bear fruits used in rites and pine trees which symbolize the ritual space. Third, resting places were established at both ends of the site for the convenience of visitors without interrupting the atmosphere of the sacred ground. A trail was also created inside the backside grove along with minimum landscape elements, including functionally required items, such as the signboard, bench, tree guard, ramp, street lights, and landscaping lights. Fourth, the information on original planting in the palace and ritual space was extracted through historical materials, such as literatures, antique paintings, and photographs along with site surveys. Based on the information acquired, a planting plan was established for the courtyard, pedestrian road, resting places, terraced flower bed, pine grove, and fruit tree garden, which constitute the landscaping space of the Seonwonjeon area.

Detrital zircon U-Pb dating of samples from the Baekseoktan (Iljik Formation), Mananjaam (Jeomgok Formation), and Sinseongri (Sagok Formation) geosites in the Cheongsong Global Geopark were carried out to estimate the depositional age and provenance of the Hayang Group in the Gyeongsang Basin. In the Iljik Formation, Jurassic and Triassic zircons are dominant with minor Precambrian zircons, with no Cretaceous zircon. In contrast, the Jeomgok and Sagok formations show very similar age distributions, which have major age populations of Cretaceous, Jurassic, and Paleoproterozoic ages. The weighted mean ages of the youngest zircon age groups of the Jeomgok and Sagok formations are 103.2±0.3 and 104.2±0.5 Ma, respectively. Results suggest that the depositional ages of the Jeomgok and Sagok Formations are Albian. The detrital zircon age spectra indicate a significant change in provenance between the Iljik and Jeomgok formations. The sediments of the Iljik Formation are thought to have been supplied from nearby plutonic rocks. However, the Jeomgok and Sagok sediments are interpreted to have been derived from relatively young deposits of the Jurassic accretionary complex located in southwest Japan.

Nitrate-nitrite-nitric oxide (NO) pathway is a major alternative source of NO and is essential for NO - dependent physiological functions in body. Food supplements having nitrate/nitrite can improve metabolic syndromes including hypertension through antioxidant activity or vasodilation. The purpose of this study was to observe the effects of fermented garlic (F. garlic) having high concentration of NO2- on changes in blood flow and nitric oxide synthesis in the cerebral cortex of rodents. The generation of nitric oxide detected by a chemi-luminescence detector was higher in F. Garlic compared with NaNO2 solution under artificial gastric juice with pH 2.0. Ether F. garlic or NaNO2 diluted with artificial cerebrospinal fluid was directly applied into around the needle probe of laser Doppler flow meter that was located on epidural surface of the cortex. Direct application of F. garlic resulted in increase of cerebral blood flow detected by a laser Doppler flow meter with a dose-dependent manner. Compared with NaNO2 solution, F. garlic produced changes in cerebral blood flow at lower concentration of NO2-. Pretreatment of methylene blue, a guanylyl cyclase inhibitor prevented upregulation of cerebral blood flow by the treatment of F. garlic. In addition, the application of F. garlic with 250, 500ppm of NO2- caused significantly the production of NO in the cortical tissue but NaNO2 solution with 500ppm of NO2- did not. In summary, these results suggested that F. garlic with high content of NO2- induce increase in cerebral blood flow through nitric oxide-dependent signal pathway.

In this study, the possibility of use as a cartridge for 3D printing was confirmed by adding calcium to the alginic acid-added surimi mixture. The Alaska pollack Gadus chalcogrammus surimi added with alginic acid was immersed in a calcium solution (1 M calcium carbonate, 1 M calcium chloride, 1 M calcium sulfate, and 0.1 M calcium lactate) to evaluate the physical properties, color differences, and sensory properties of Alaska pollack surimi according to calcium types. As the results, in the case of surimi paste to which 1 M calcium carbonate was added, physical properties were weaker than that of 1 M calcium chloride, but gelation was appropriate and sensory properties was excellent. Addition of 1 M calcium chloride has the best physical properties, but it has a problem of bitter taste. With the addition of 1 M calcium sulfate, it has low solubility and poor physical properties as well as poor elasticity and bad taste. Addition of 0.1 M calcium lactate has weak physical properties but good sensory properties. From these results, 1 M calcium chloride has the best physical properties, but there is a decisive problem in sensory properties, so 1 M calcium carbonate is most suitable for commercial use.

In 2021, AI basics were introduced in the high school curriculum. There are many worries that the problem of utilization-oriented education will be repeated with the introduction of artificial intelligence education rather than the principles that occurred when ICT was applied to education in the past. Most of the existing AI education platforms focus only on the use of AI. For artificial intelligence education of middle school students, there are difficulties in learning about the process by which artificial intelligence derives results and learning the principles of artificial intelligence algorithms. Recently, as the educational application of metaverse has become a hot topic, research has been started to improve learning achievement by arousing students' immersion and interest. This research developed educational game contents about decision tree algorithm using metaverse as educational contents that can be used in middle school AI education. By applying games to education, it was intended to increase students' interest and immersion in artificial intelligence, and to increase educational effectiveness. In this paper, the educational effectiveness, difficulty, and level of interest were analyzed for pre-service teachers regarding the developed game content. Based on this, a future principle-oriented artificial intelligence education method was suggested.

Purpose: The goal of this research is to create a numerical analytic database that may assist fire prevention managers and building officials in prioritizing items that need to be addressed in order to improve evacuation safety performance while working within a constrained budget and time frame. Method: It was carried out utilizing the CFD Tool, a quantitative evaluation approach, to assess evacuation safety. One direct staircase-type apartment houses and one corridor-type apartment were chosen to make it. Result: In the fire compartment category, Apartment A's evacuation time was around 130 percent longer than that of sprinkler facilities. Conclusion: Fire prevention managers and building officials feel that starting with a single level and implementing "dwelling unit separations" will increase evacuation safety, and that maintaining fire compartments and sprinkler systems at all times will be effective. Because of the limited characteristics of smoke propagation in corridor-type apartments compared to direct staircase-type flats, it is thought that fire extinguishing equipment should be addressed.

Typical bacterial symptoms, water-soaking brown and black leaf spots with yellow halo, were observed on watermelon seedlings in nursery and field of Gyeongnam and Jeonnam provinces. Bacterial isolates from the lesion showed strong pathogenicity on watermelon and zucchini. One of them was rod-shaped with 4 polar flagella by observation of transmission electron microscopy. They belonged to LOPAT group 1. The phylogenical trees with nucleotide sequences of 16S rRNA and multi-locus sequencing typing with the 4 house-keeping genes (gapA, gltA, gyrB, and rpoD) of the isolates showed they were highly homologous to Pseudomonas syringae pv. syringae and grouped together with them, indicating that they were appeared as P. syringae genomospecies group 1. Morphological, physiological, and genetical characteristics of the isolates suggested they are P. syringae pv. syringae. We believe this is the first report that P. syringae pv. syringae caused leaf spot disease on watermelon in the Republic of Korea.
