In this study, the staged seismic performance evaluations were conducted to the 91 high speed railway tunnels in use for checking whether to comply with the recent design criteria or not. In addition, the seismic fragility functions of the tunnels were developed to allow the probabilistic risk assessment. The results of the staged seismic performance evaluations which consist of a preliminary assessment and a detailed assessment, show that the tunnels comply with the recent design criteria. With reference to the results of previous studies, a form of the proposed seismic fragility functions was set as a log-normal distribution by PGA, and the parameters of the functions were determined by using the probability of damage for the design PGA level. The seismic fragility functions were developed for each types (Cut & Cover, NATM) of tunnels. The seismic fragility functions from this study and the existing research results (FEMA, 2004) were compared to evaluate the seismic performance level of the tunnels, as a result the tunnels of this study were relatively superior to the ASSM tunnels on the seismic performance.

A Ubiquitous City (U-city, Smart City) is one that ties information communications technologies (ICT) into many facets of city construction, thereby implicitly intending to function as a smart city that aims to be efficiently managed as well as provide an enhanced standard of living for its residents. Laws related to the construction of such ubiquitous cities point to integrated city management centers, intelligent facilities, and U-City infrastructure, among others, as central components of U-Cities, but do not provide a standard for these structures. Consequently, building of U-Cities by local governments are based on arbitrary judgments constrained the myriad of practical limitations that they face. Such ambiguity brings to light the need to find ways to improve the quality of these efforts. The first and second stages of this research examine the status of the components of a U-City -ubiquitous planning, technology, infrastructure, and services - and undertakes a comprehensive review thereof, with evaluation criteria formulated on the characteristics of stability, connectivity, goal-orientation, and development potential. In the research's third stage, a realistic and detailed evaluation index by which U-Cities can be renewed, demonstrated, and applied (???) is introduced in a step-by-step fashion, which will allow for local governments to properly assess the standard of their U-City in relation to the realities of the locality. Through the research result, it is expected that the index will become a part of the continued development and advancement of the "smart" character of an autonomous U-City at the local scale, and contribute to the overall revitalization of the U-City.

This study was conducted to investigate the chemical characteristics of Gochujang with different amounts of sweet persimmon powder added during fermentation at $20^{\circ}C$ for 90 days, in an effort to improve its taste and organoleptic quality. The moisture content was shown to be inclined to increase in all the treatments throughout the fermentation. There was no significant difference between the paste with sweet persimmon powder and the control. The pH showed a tendency to decrease with increased fermentation time in all the samples during fermentation, keeping a pH range of 4.64-4.67 after 60 days of fermentation. On the contrary, the titratable acidity increased during fermentation, showing a level of 0.147-0.156 mg% in the paste with sweet persimmon powder on the 90th day of fermentation. The sugar content was shown to be $33.67-39.67^{\circ}Brix$ in the early stage of fermentation, revealing a tendency to in crease with an increase in the amount of sweet persimmon powder added. The amino-type nitrogen content was at the 241.27-245.47 mg% level in the early stage of fermentation, and appeared to be significantly high (p<0.05) in the treatments with 3 and 4% sweet persimmon powder added, respectively, after 60 days of fermentation. The content was within the range of 357.47-371.53 mg% on the 90 th day of fermentation in the final stage, showing an increase trend throughout the fermentation. The alcohol content gradually increased with an increase in fermentation time, showing a range of 0.94-0.10% on the 90th day of the final stage of fermentation. Moreover, the content was highest (0.96-0.108%) on the 70th day of fermentation, demonstrating a trend to slightly decline in all the treatments thereafter.

The purpose of this study was to investigate the relationship between self-esteem and differentiation of self, and to identify the degree of self-esteem and differentiation of self. Data were collected from 151 elementary school students using community child center. Factor analysis, reliability analysis, correlation analysis, regression analysis, and cluster analysis were performed. The results of the study are as follows: First, as a result of factor analysis, differentiation of self was classified into differentiation of internal mind, other's and self oriented. Self-esteem was classified into isolation, achievement, relation, and daunted. Second, regression analysis indicated that there was obvious relationship between self-esteem and the differentiation of self. Third, cluster analysis showed that 37.6% of children belonged to cluster 2 with achievement and relation patterns and self-oriented differentiation. Forty-three percent were belonged to cluster 1 with isolated and daunted self-esteem as well as internal mind and other's oriented differentiation. In cluster 3, 19.4% were belonged and their levels of self-esteem and the differentiation of self were very low. Findings indicate that for those children belonged to cluster 1 and 3, programs to raise the self-esteem of children and parental education are needed.

Future prospects for the North Korean construction market created by reunification of the Korean Peninsula has consistently been recognized as highly promising. Although rehabilitation projects of the deteriorating construction facilities in North Korea are expected to serve as new source of growth engine to South Korea in future, the status quo of each infrastructure in the North are described verbosely with signs of subjective translation. There has been limited approach on depicting the condition and performance of the North Korean facilities based on quantitative and systematic approach. Thus, this study has been conducted under a twofold purpose. First, this study proposes a performance indicator for identifying the status quo of the major construction facilities in North Korea based on a quantitative approach. Second, this study applies the developed indicator to visualize the results on the conditions of each facility in the form of a report card. This expected to serve as a basis on determining the appropriate level of the construction infrastructure in North Korea and estimating the range of rehabilitation projects along with the investment cost.

Recently, the interests of consumers in firms that implement the social commitment activities have been consistently growing. Consumers' evaluation about the level of corporate social responsibility(CSR) can affect the overall image for product or service of corporation. This recent changes make a marketer to have to consider direct and indirect effects of CSR efforts on the market performance. This phenomena is also found in the franchise industry. The importance of CSR is more critical rather than other industries since each franchisor should care franchisees as well as end users. Franchisors' execution of CSR could increase satisfaction of end user through consonance of activities provided by franchisees. However most franchisor stay in focusing on the traditional CSR activities. Therefore, this study aims to enhance the understanding the CSR in franchise and provide the phase model of CSR development for general firms including franchise. After diagnosis the firms with the proposed model, the study found many franchisors have huge gap between current CSR activities and higher level of CSR policies that franchisor have to make facing. This study call franchisors to reduce this gap by implementing new CSR efforts. If they answer for this calling, franchise industry could leap for making the best practice of creating shared value with other stakeholders.

Carbon fiber reinforced polymer (CRFP) materials are well suited to the rehabilitation of civil engineering structures due to their corrosion resistance, high strength to weight ratio and high stiffness to weight ratio. Their application in the field of the rehabilitation of concrete structures is increased due to the vast number of bridges and buildings in need of strengthening. However, RC members, strengthened with externally bonded CFRP plates, happened to collapse before reaching the expected design failure load. Therefore, it is necessary to develop the new strengthening method to overcome the problems of previous bonded strengthening method. This problems can be solved by prestressing the CFRP plate before bonding to the concrete. In this study, a total of 21 specimens of 3.3 m length were tested by the four point bending method after strengthening them with externally bonded CFRP plates. The CFRP plates were bonded without prestress and with various prestress levels ranging from 0.4% to 0.8% of CFRP plate strain. All specimen with end anchorage failed by a plate fracture regardless of the prestress levels while the specimen without end anchorage failed by the separation of the plate from the beam due to premature debonding. The cracking loads was proportionally related to the prestress levels, but the maximum loads of specimens strengthened with prestressed CFRP plates were insignificantly affected by the prestress levels.

열전 발전은 버려지는 폐열을 재사용 가능한 에너지로 전환할 수 있다는 점에서 차세대 청정 에너지원으로 분류되며, 19세기 초 발견된 이래 꾸준히 연구되어온 연구 분야이다. 특히 1990년대 열전소재로의 나노 기술의 접목에 따라 열전성능(figure of merit, ZT)이 2 배 이상 증가 되면서, 고성능의 열전 소재 개발을 위해 나노구조화 연구가 활발히 진행되고 있다. 하지만, 기존의 열전 특성 측정용 상용 장비의 경우, 벌크형 소재를 대상으로 설계되어 연구실 수준에서 개발되고 있는 마이크로미터 스케일의 두께를 가지는 박막형 열전 소재의 두께 방향 (cross-plane)의 열전 특성을 평가하는데 정밀성이 떨어져서 적합하지 않다. 이러한 표준화된 측정 기술의 부재로 인하여 최근 연구되고 있는 나노소재들의 열전 특성 측정 결과를 정확하게 측정하지 못하고 있다 [1] 본 연구에서는 박막형 열전 소재의 열전성능을 평가하는데 가장 중요한 요소인 열전도도를 측정하기 위해 장비를 설계하고, 장비의 측정 능력에 대해 평가하였다. 특히, 측정 포인트 간 큰 온도 차가 발생하여 비교적 쉽게 측정이 가능한 너비 방향 (in-plane) 이 아닌, 온도 차가 작은 박막의 두께 방향의 열전도도를 측정하였다. 그리고 센서의 측정 능력을 평가하기 위해, 폴리이미드를 대상으로 $-10-70^{\circ}C$ 온도 범위에서 측정한 결과와 벌크형 소재 대상으로 신뢰성이 확보된 보호열판법을 이용해 측정한 결과를 비교하였다.

The effects of information technology on people and society, while being profusely laid out in academic and popular literature, are largely anecdotal, fragmented, and speculative, not adding up to a consistent theory of IT impact. This is attributed to a lack of a proper research model that guides and integrates the research. This paper examines several dimensions of the IT impact research that characterize and distinguish the research and develops a conceptual model of the IT impact research. Three dimensions are examined - the search domain, the concept of organization, and the level of analysis. The dimensions are combined to produce several conceptual domains, each with differing issues and characteristics for research, that constitute the IT impact research. A model of the IT impact research is developed which proposes a series of transition among the search domains. At the end, the implications of the research model are discussed.

대부분의 갈등해소에 관한 연구들은 갈등해소방법 사용의 상황에 따른 일관성을 미리 가정하고 있다. 그러나 몇몇 연구에서 갈등해소방법에 있어 성격의 효과와 함께 상황적 효과가 있음을 보고하고 있다. 아직까지는 갈등의 쟁점, 감정, 관련 인물과 이들의 상호작용을 고려한 갈등해소방법의 일관성에 관한 연구가 부재한 실정이다. 본 연구는 상황에 따른 갈등해소 방법 선택의 일관성의 수준과 결혼 적응도에 있어서의 이들의 영향을 조사하였다. 나아가, 갈등해소의 과정 및 절차를 관찰하였다. 350쌍의 한국 부부들에게 설문조사(1차연구)를 실시하였으며, 이를 바탕으로 50쌍을 선발하여 갈등해소 과정을 관찰하였다(2차연구). 설문조사 결과에 의하면, 쟁점의 종류나 관련 대상에 따라서는 비교적 일관성 있는 방법을 사용하였으나, 감정상태에 따라서는 비 일관적인 해소방법을 사용하였다. 안정형 애착유형자는 건설적 해소 방법을 사용하는 반면, 불안정 애착유형자는 파괴적 또는 회피적 해소방법을 사용하는 경향을 보였다. 관찰 연구 결과에 의하면, 건설형 및 회피형 사용자는 설문조사와 관찰연구에서 일관성 있는 행동을 보였으며, 파괴형 해소방법 사용자는 설문조사와 관찰연구에 있어 일관성이 결여되어 있었다. 갈등해소의 과정, 즉 시작, 진행, 종료에 있어 유의한 타이가 발견되었으며, 이것이 결혼 적응도에 영향을 주었다. 연구결과들은 갈등해소와 결혼 적응에 관한 이론과 연계되어 논의되었다.
