The automobile industry is representative industry of complex characteristics, which employing 10 million people, the largest manufacturing industry over $1 trillion in sales and assembling with 20,000 parts to make complete automobile and automobile assembly processes have a lower automation rate than other processes, which is labor intensive processes of assembling to painted body with 3,000 components such as seats, built-in, instrument panel, glass, engine, transmission units. However, the current assembly process does not have real-time monitoring. If a tool position tracking system is adapted to assembly process for directing consistent work order and checking for missing work, the productivity and quality improvement of the assembly process can be achieved by preemptively preventing possible defects in the assembly process. So, this paper aims to develop a Tool Position tracking system using UWB(Ultra Wide Band) with trilateration and proves their effectiveness for real-time monitoring of automotive assembly process.

In applying Numerov-Cooley method, Excel tool ‘Solver' is used to match those two wave functions propagated inward and outward, respectively. It is numerically confirmed that the same eigenvalue is obtained by using the average of two energy values of each inward and outward wave functions. This method is applied to a NO molecule potential, and we calculated the variations of the average bond distance and tunneling for a given vibrational energy. It is found that the average bond lengths increase proportionately to the vibrational energy, while the tunneling is not so sensitive to the energy changes. Rather substantial amount of tunnel effect is found for every vibrational state.

We developed a user-friendly program to independently verify monitor units (MUs) calculated by radiation treatment planning systems (RTPS), as well as to manage beam database in clinic. The off-axis factor, beam hardening effect, inhomogeneity correction, and the different depth correction were incorporated into the program algorithm to improve the accuracy in calculated MUs. A beam database in the program was supposed to use measured data from routine quality assurance (QA) processes for timely update. To enhance user's convenience, a graphic user interface (GUI) was developed by using Visual Basic for Application. In order to evaluate the accuracy of the program for various treatment conditions, the MU comparisons were made for 213 cases of phantom and for 108 cases of 17 patients treated by 3D conformal radiation therapy. The MUs calculated by the program and calculated by the RTPS showed a fair agreement within ${\pm}3%$ for the phantom and ${\pm}5%$ for the patient, except for the cases of extreme inhomogeneity. By using Visual Basic for Application and Microsoft Excel worksheet interface, the program can automatically generate beam data book for clinical reference and the comparison template for the beam data management. The program developed in this study can be used to verify the accuracy of RTPS for various treatment conditions and thus can be used as a tool of routine RTPS QA, as well as independent MU checks. In addition, its beam database management interface can update beam data periodically and thus can be used to monitor multiple beam databases efficiently.

Recently, research on precise parts required in aerospace, ship, and automobile industries has been actively conducted. In this paper, electron beam drilling machining parameters were selected and experiments were conducted to compare processing characteristics analysis according to machining parameters through machining experiments of a vaporization amplification sheet to which STS 304 was applied. Also, as a result of measuring the machining. As the thickness gradually increased, it was confirmed that the electron beam could not reach the vaporization amplification sheet and thus melted on the surface of the material. As a result of the experimental analysis, it was analyzed that the vaporization explosion reaction of the vaporization amplification sheet was not normally performed due to the working distance (WD) according to the material thickness.

Cards made from PVC and PET materials do not oxidize or decompose readily, so they are generally incinerated or landfilled after use and cause pollution problems, such as environmental hormones and combustion gases during incineration. In addition, there is a problem of environmental pollution because they are discarded as semi-permanent refuse without being decomposed at landfill. This study attempted to solve this problem using polylactic acid (PLA), which is a representative biodegradable material as a substitute material that can solve the issues with these cards. On the other hand, when the thin card core sheet is made from only PLA material, the physical properties of the material are insufficient, such as the low temperature impact strength, high temperature stability, and poor bending properties, so its use is limited. To solve this problem, the compositional ratio of PLA was reviewed, and the optimal biodegradable compound composition was determined through an examination of the compositions, such as crystallization nucleating agents, additives, and nano compound technology. The high functionalization as a biodegradable card was verified through a laminating process using annealing technology.

The aim of this research is to examine patterns of design governance used by Northern European countries to respond to social crises and understand design governance as a tool for sophistication of social services and social integration. Design governance as applied in Sitra of Finland, MindLab of Denmark and the Gulliver project of Germany encourages using design methodology for analyzing and solving problems related to social phenomena based on involvement of the private, public, industrial, and academic groups. Especially, the citizens are actively involved in developing problem-solving ideas and designing new policy with other governance members, rather than simply providing information or one-time participation. In the cases discussed in this study, design governance reduce unnecessary administrative and financial consumption and inconvenience caused by complicated rules, based on field-oriented approach, regional characteristics, pluralism, and respect for diversity. Therefore, future design policy paradigm will need to evolve into concept of policy design and pluralistic monitoring centered on design governance based on participation of private sector to lead policy development, from the current system in which only few officials decide policy.

Video display units (VDU) are interfaces between computers and human operators. This study was performed to have a good understanding of the potential causes of eye problems in 50 students to enable them to perform an accurate assessment of the patient's visual performance while looking at a computer screen. The TSS Optometric Toolkit for Computer Users provides a powerful set of tools to enable eye care practitioners to assess visual performance under conditions that closely simulate a computer user's normal working conditions. The program consists of seven tests: Near vision chart, Sample text display, Spreadsheet display, Fixation disparity, Duochrome, Number search, Randolt Ring search. The results of this study show that 55% of the subjects do not have computer-related eye problems. It is apparent from this data that approximately 25% of all computer-related eye problems are attributable to the display screen, the workstation or inappropriate workpractices. Of the remaining cases, 20% of them will require general purpose spectacles and spectacles specifically for work at the computer. This study suggests that computer program, The TSS Optometric Toolkit for Computer Users, is very useful for assessment of computer-related eye problems.

This study aimed to identify priorities in community pharmacist's roles in aged society using Analytic Hierarchy Process. We developed a survey questionnaire for AHP, which consisted of 19 pharmacist's roles selected from the FIP/WHO guidelines. The AHP survey questionnaire was self-administered by 127 pharmacists. The results showed that pharmacists put medication therapy management at the highest priority, preparation, dispense, distribution of medication at the second priority, and efficient healthcare system at the lowest priority. Among the 19 roles, new roles such as monitoring of medication therapy results, team-based health care, and transitions of care obtained relatively high priority.

The baby-tech industry, which combines IT with existing parenting product, is attracting increasing amounts of attention. Consequently various types of baby products incorporating functionality and design are being launched. In recent years, particularly as the market segments increases for babywearing products, parenting products that account for the child's comfort and parents' convenience are required. Therefore, this study examines the characteristics and consumer perception of babywear products, which are important for the emotional stability, development, and rearing of children. The study utilizes text mining and a network analysis by collecting unstructured text data. An examination of the network, based on the frequency of keywords for each babywear product and the degree of the connection to the centering index, revealed that consumers value convenience and price when purchasing products. The consumer perception and consideration factors that appear individually according to the product were also identified. In addition, studying body parts with high TF-IDF values revealed a difference in the body parts considered by consumers for each product. Lastly, through the visualization data based on the keywords that appeared in public, commonly appearing keywords, and those that appeared individually were examined. Through SNS, product characteristics as well as a new parenting culture that shared child-rearing routines were confirmed. This study suggests planning and marketing directions for the development of babywear products that meet consumer needs.
