Degree of noise by personal dental laboratory working process and degree of noise by complex dental laboratory working process were measured separtely. The time of exposure to noise greater than 70dB was analyzed. Then, the whole degree of noise in dental laboratory was estimated on the basis of afore-mentioned information. Questionaire were employed to investigate the mental, emotional and physiological effects of noise in dental technicians, The purpose of this study was to provide basic information on keeping dental techneicans who are exposed to noise pollution in good working condition and good health. Results obtained are as follows ; 1. Polishing process in each working part showed high degree of noise greater than 70dB in terms of degree of noise by personal working. 2. Degree of noise by complex working process in each working part was greater than that of personal working process. 3. Time of exposure to noise complex working process the part of porcelain 150min, partial denture 120 min, crown and bridge 100 min, full denture 80 min. 4. Degree of noise by time in dental laboratory was 80dB in general for polishing process and below 75dB for waxing process. 5. Effects of noise on mental and emotional state of dental technicians showed that they felt irritated every day(14%), irritated once in a while(29%) and easily ger mad(19%). 6. Effects of noise on heart and stomach were hyper-gastric acid(38%), gastric ulcer(11%), gastritis(5%), deuodenal ulcer(3%) and weak heart function(32%). 7. Effects of noise in the hearing ability were weak(39%), moderate(33%) and normal(14%) Data presented in this study demonstrated that noise in the dental laboratory exerts profound effect on dental technicians mentally, physiologically and emotionally, in light of the above results, therefore, it appears advisable to devots substantial on the management of working condition and put further(continuing) efforts in the investigation for reducing noise problem.

This study presents the simulation results of Photopia when a lecture room with north-facing windows were illuminated by two different types of daylighting systems to improve the imbalance in its lighting conditions. Especially, the candela power distribution curves (CDCs) on a clear sunny day at the summer solstice, reaching $80^{\circ}$ in solar altitude, were analyzed with respect to the illuminance available at task areas (work planes). The difference between its illuminance on the north and south areas exceeded 1,000 lux without any daylighting system. This, however, decreased drastically with the application of a daylighting system. When a light tube system was introduced, it reduced from 906lx to 603lx and, even further to 308lx with the application of a dish concentrator system. Generally, the performance of a light tube system was greatly influenced by solar altitude while its effect on the dish concentrator system was rather negligible.

The basic model of impeller was developed for the theoretical analysis of performance. The developed model was tested with two different blade radius of curvature based on the pumping efficiency under the operating conditions in Korea. And the pump performance of the impeller was also tested for the various speeds. The results obtained are summarized as follows; 1. There was no significant effect on the different blade radius of curvatures on the discharge and pump efficiency. 2. Head and power requirement was increased in proportion to the blade radius of curvature. 3. In the mathematical approach of the blade radius of curvature, the method of involute curve was more recommendable as compared with the method of circular arc curve. 4. The pump efficiency of the model impeller developed based on the theoretical analysis increased about 10% more than that of the existing impeller.

Recent technological advances in the domestic railway industry have turned out to deliver a profound impact on the forefront of other industries as well. Furthermore, the introduction of the high-speed railway systems has made it possible to travel around our country in a day, thereby changing our life styles a lot. However, it has been well recognized that many factors can cause unanticipated accidents during the operation. One of the causes is known to be the human errors made by the train operators in locomotive cabs. The problem is getting more serious as the trains run at high speed. As such, the objective of this paper is on how to improve the work environment of the locomotive cabs. Our approach is based on the systems engineering methodology. Specifically, we first identify the context and scope of the problem to be solved. We then continue our effort in deriving the requirements set to accomplish the improvement. These results are utilized in constructing a computer-aided management system for test and evaluation intended for the improvement. The approach taken and the results obtained in this paper is expected to make a contribution on the route to keeping our nation's technologies on the competitive edges in the high-speed railway systems industry.

The techniques of 3d image processing have broadly used in the areas including movies, games, performances, exhibitions. In addition, increasing demands for practical uses have gradually extended to the areas of architecture, medicine, nuclear power plant. However, dominant techniques for 3d image processing seem to depend on multi-camera in which two stereo images are merged into one image. Also the pipeline has limitations to provide real-time 3d viewer in ubiquitous computing. It is not able to be applicable onto most general screens as well. In addition, the techniques can be utilized for the real-time 3d game play without a particular monitor or convertor. Hence, the research presented here is to aim at developing an efficient real-time 3d viewer using only mono camera which do not need post processing for editing as well.

We are investigated about the state of the working circumstances and infection blocking facility within Metropolitan, Chungcheong and Gyeongsang regions in Korea. The result is as follows. The HAV vaccination rate is 35% and the HBV vaccination rate is 50% among the funeral directors. We expected that the infection risk of funeral directors was very high. Significantly, tuberculosis prevalence rate of funeral director was four times as high as the public. The wear rate of gown, mask, gloves showed relatively high than the others. The wear rate of individual protective equipments has decreased with work experience. The funeral directors have shown that there is difficult to get safe protection from infection. The personal hygiene of funeral directors and the infection blocking equipment should be strengthened institutionally. We are thought to recommend institutional support about infection management, individual protective equipment, vaccination of funeral director and guideline to avoid reversion to previous habitual behavior.

대학, 기업 및 국 공립 출연 연구소의 연구 활동 종사자는 학술적 연구 및 신기술, 신물질의 개발을 통해 우리나라 과학기술 발전에 크게 기여하고 있다. 그러나 이와 더불어 각종 안전사고에 노출되어 있는 것도 사실이다. 즉, 실험실은 대부분의 작업장 보다 더욱 많은 화재, 폭발 등의 위험에 항상 노출되어 있다. 이는 일반적인 작업장과는 다르게 실험이 종료되면 기존 실험 장치를 철거하고 신규로 다른 실험장치가 설치되기 때문이다. 연구실험실에서 발생한 사고 원인을 분석해 보면, 실험실 기능의 불비, 설비 및 유지관리의 불충분, 실험공간의 협소, 실험 작업 안전에 대한 배려부족, 안전전문가의 부족과 교육훈련체제의 미흡 등을 지적할 수 있으며, 이와 같은 빈번한 사고발생은 우수한 연구 활동 종사자의 연구 의욕을 떨어뜨리고, 건강과 생명에 위협을 느끼게 하고 있다. 본 연구에서는 기존의 실험실 안전관리 체크리스트들을 검토하고, 안전관련 분야에서 사용되고 있는 심의 체크리스트를 조사하여, 대학 및 연구기관 등의 바이오실험실에 사용할 수 있는 표준 체크리스트를 개발하고자 한다. 현재 개발된 바이오 분야 체크리스트는 "연구실험실 공통 체크리스트"에 기반하여 바이오 분야에서 중점 평가할 항목을 심화시켜 구성하였다. 바이오 분야에서 주로 이루어지는 생물 실험 및 동물해부 실험시 안전을 위해 반드시 점검해야 할 총 8개의 세부 점검 항목을 제시하였으며, 실험동물 관리 및 사육실 출입시 안전을 위해 점검해야 할 총 11개의 세부 점검 항목을 제시하였고, 세포, 조직 배양 실험 및 유전자 조작 실험시 안전을 위해 점검해야 할 총 5개의 세부 점검 항목을 제시하였다. 또한 미생물 취급시 안전을 위해 점검해야 할 총 19개의 세부 점검 항목을 제시하였으며, 세균 취급시 안전을 위해 점검해야할 총 8개의 세부 점검 항목을 제시하였고 마지막으로, 바이러스 취급시 안전을 위해 점검해야할 총 5개의 세부 점검 항목을 제시하였다. 실험실 안전은 연구종사자의 올바른 안전의식, 연구관련 부서의 체계적 지원 및 실험실 안전 관련 법령의 완비가 뒷받침 되었을 때 비로소 가능한 일이다. 따라서, 본 연구에서 얻어진 체크 리스트가 이에 기여할 것이라 사료되며, 추후 분야별 실험실 안전관리 실태조사의 지침서로 활용되는데 목적이 있다.

This paper reviews the recent development of electronic textile technology, mainly focusing on chip-textile bonding. Before the chip-textile bonding, a circuit on the textile should be prepared to supply the electrical power and signal to the chip mounted on the fabrics. Either embroidery with conductive yarn or screen-printing with the conductive paste can be applied to implement the circuit on the fabrics depending on the circuit density and resolution. Next, chip-textile bonding can be performed. There are two choices for chip-textile bonding: fixed connection methods such as soldering, ACF/NCA, embroidery, crimping, and secondly removable connection methods like a hook, magnet, zipper. Following the chip-textile bonding process, the chip on the textile is generally encapsulated using PDMS to ensure reliability like water-proof.
