The aim of this study is to evaluate the applicability of Granulated Blast Furnace Slag to the development of the Powdered Ready-mixed Shotcrete. First of all, after accomplishing SEM analysis and Leaching Test, the laboratory and field experiments for evaluating the utility of Granulated Blast Furnace Slag were performed. As a result of SEM and Leaching test, the environmental stability was confirmed. That is, non-detection of harmful lists and dense shotcrete structure result from mixing Granulated Blast Furnace Slag. As a result of lab. and field test, Blast Furnace Slag is superior to Plain Batch in improving strength and durability. And it will be able to improve to some extent the problem caused by the delayed reaction of existing Granulated Blast Furnace Slag with alkali activated material. Also the proper amount of Granulated Blast Furnace Slag is estimated to be under 30%. Finally, it is possible that Granulated Blast Furnace Slag can apply to economical recycling and development of the Ready-mixed Shotcrete for its price is only about 5% of Silica-finne's price.

A conventional Design for Safety (DfS), introduced to eliminate potential hazards in the design phase proactively, has encountered persistent challenges, such as perfunctory risk assessments and hazard identifications based on 2D drawings and inefficient workflow processes. This study proposes a BIM-based approach to Design for Safety (DfS) to address the limitations of conventional methods, aiming to enhance efficiency and achieve practical safety management benefits. The proposed workflow process for BIM-based DfS has been refined and validated for on-site applicability through various case studies, including risk assessments during the design phase and field applications for safety management activities during the construction phase. Specifically, the critical process of risk assessment within the DfS methodology has also been transitioned to a BIM-based approach. This BIM-based risk assessment process has been evaluated through case studies, encompassing safety reviews for structural design, construction equipment operation, and construction methodology with sequence in design projects. Additionally, the proposed BIM-based DfS has demonstrated exceptional on-site applicability and efficiency, as validated by the application of a BIM deliverable embedded in DfS information for CDE-based daily activity briefing, VR-based safety training, AR-based mitigation measures inspections, and other safety management activities in the construction phase.

Objective : Fire and heat related symptoms and signs are considered common in acute stage of diseases. The purpose of this study is to evaluate the occurrences and changes of fire and heat related symptoms and signs in acute cerebral infarction patients. Method & subjects : 40 acute cerebral infarction patients hospitalized in Oriental medicine hospital, Kyung-Hee University, who had examined and diagnosed 2 or 3 times based on oriental medical diagnosis were selected. We chose 23 as fire and heat related symptoms and signs from 94 diagnostic articles, and we added all those scores together of each patient. We analysed the scores of fire and heat related symptoms and signs as the time passed, and depending on oriental medical diagnosis. Result : In acute cerebral infarction patients of this study, 4 of fire and heat related symptoms and signs were took 1st, 2nd, 4th and 8th places in most changeable 10 articles of total 94 articles. The mean score of fire and heat related symptoms and signs of all patients were decreased significantly over the 3 times of measurements. The 8 patients diagnosed as fire and heat diagnosis at visit1 were samely diagnosed as fire and heat diagnosis at visit2, and at visit3 5 patients of them except for 3 patients excluded between visit2 and visit3, were still diagnosed as fire and heat diagnosis. At all of 3 measuring times, the scores of fire and heat related symptoms and signs of fire and heat diagnosis group were higher than non-fire and heat diagnosis group.

Prior studies on frequency-related image quality analysis of intravascular ultrasound catheters are lacking both in Korea and abroad. Therefore, this study was conducted to prepare a standard for measuring the image quality using the program and to suggest a measuring method to researchers related to the quality analysis of intravascular ultrasound images. For the target, the vessel lumen size is 3.0 - 4.0 mm. Before using intravascular ultrasound, thoroughly clean the ultrasound catheter so that no air or foreign substances enter it. Normal vascular images and lesion vascular images of sufficiently dilated images were used. As a standard image acquisition method, the image of the end-systolic section, which has the best evaluation of vascular lesions when using intravascular ultrasound, was acquired retrospectively through the DCAS PACS program to set the standard. When setting the measurement method criteria, we proposed a standard setting method that corresponds to the concentric and eccentric circles of normal and lesion vessels. By applying this criterion, we proposed a method for measuring the lumen and lateral cavities of normal and lesion vessels of interest and background area. In conclusion, if the image quality of intravascular ultrasonography is measured through the method devised by these researchers, consistent quality measurement is possible regardless of the type of intravascular ultrasound catheter. Therefore, it is thought that it can be applied as a guideline for the actual image quality measurement method in the study related to intravascular ultrasound image quality.

벼룩이울타리(Arenaria juncea M.Bieb.)는 7~8월에 백색의 꽃이 취산화서로 아름답게 피며, 산지, 산비탈 또는 메마른 초지에 자생한다. 청열 및 양혈의 효능이 있고, 은시호의 대용으로 쓰이며, 뿌리에는 triterpenoid saponins과 sapogenin이 함유되어 있다. 본 연구는 분화용 식물로 벼룩이울타리를 활용하기 위한 효율적인 포트 정식방법을 개발하기 위하여 수행되었다. 실험은 2018년 선행연구에서 생산된 유묘를 7월 2일에 정식하여 10월 15일까지 약 15주 동안 재배하였다. 대조구는 플라스틱 화분 10호($9{\times}9cm$)에 원예상토를 충진하고 200구 트레이에 셀 당 4립씩 파종하여 생산된 1셀을 정식하였다. 재배 실험은 용기종류[비닐포트(3, 4치), 플라스틱 포트(8, 10, 12호)], 토양 종류[원예상토, 중화 피트모스:펄라이트(3:1, 4:1), 마사토:중화 피트모스(2:1, 3:1)], 묘의 소질[파종 립수(1, 2, 4, 6립), 파종 용기(162, 200, 288구 트레이)] 등을 달리하여 진행하였다. 연구의 결과, 벼룩이울타리는 토양의 양이 많을수록 생육이 양호한 결과를 보여, 플라스틱 12호에 재배하는 것이 분화용으로 가장 효과적이었다. 한편, 비닐 4치와 플라스틱 10호의 경우, 플라스틱 12호와 생육에 큰 차이가 없어 경제적인 것으로 판단된다. 벼룩이울타리는 원예상토에서 재배하는 것이 전반적으로 생육이 우수하였으며, 다음으로 마사토와 피트모스 혼용토 순이었다. 그러나 피트모스와 펄라이트 혼용토는 비율과 관계없이 생육이 감소하며, 잎에 황백화 현상이 나타났다. 셀당 파종량을 달리하여 육묘한 후 정식한 결과, 전반적인 생육은 1립 파종묘에서 양호하였으나, 2, 4, 6립 파종묘가 1립 처리구에 비해 포트당 엽수가 약 1.35, 1.44, 2.01배 증가하는 경향을 보였다. 그러므로 유묘 생산시 셀당 파종량을 늘려 재배하는 것이 분화용으로 효과적일 것으로 판단된다. 파종용기별 유묘의 생육은 162, 200, 288구 트레이 순이었으나, 정식 후 약 15주 동안 재배한 결과, 162, 200구에서 생산된 유묘를 정식하는 것이 288구보다 양호하였다. 따라서, 육묘 단계에서 토양 및 공간을 절약할 수 있는 200구에 파종하여 재배하는 것이 효율적인 방법으로 생각된다. 결론적으로, 벼룩이울타리의 분화용 재배는 플라스틱포트 12호에 원예상토를 충진하고 200구 트레이에 4립 또는 6립을 파종하여 육묘한 묘를 정식하는 것이 가장 효과적이다. 한편, 경제적인 측면을 고려할 때, 재배면적을 적게 차지하는 비닐포트 4치 또는 플라스틱 포트 10호에 마사토와 중화 피트모스를 혼용하여 충진한 다음 유묘를 이식하는 것도 하나의 방법으로 판단된다.

Despite the fact that Daejeon has excellent technology infrastructures such as government-funded research institutes, Daedeok Innopolis, and KAIST, the infrastructure for initial investment and growth support for technological start-ups is not sufficient. In particular, the amount of venture capital supply in Daejeon is relatively low compared to other innovation infrastructures. The purpose of this study is to suggest the implications of the venture capital ecosystem in Daejeon area through the analysis of what evolution process has been undergoing and what improvements and complementary points are needed in the future. First, the role of public finance system should be strengthened in order to stimulate angel investment and private capital inflows to start-up companies. Second, in order to cultivate investment professionals in the region, it is necessary to grant local funds to local institutions, and to run investment expert training courses in universities. Third, cooperation between related agencies is needed to add accelerator functions to existing incubators and to foster new accelerators. Fourth, in order to expand the role of local governments, it is necessary to establish funds, to open innovation mindset of public officials, and to communicate effectively with the central government. Fifth, basic venture ecosystem infrastructures such as inflow of excellent manpower, prevention of technology deception, improvement of rechallenge environment should be expanded. Sixth, it is necessary to reorganize the step-by-step start-up financing policy of 'Establishment - Growth - Exit - Rechallenge'. This study is meaningful in that it has grasped the current status of venture start-up financial ecosystem in Daejeon, which is changing rapidly. In particular, it is different in that it identifies financial difficulties venture companies in Daejeon and finds ways to utilize existing financial ecosystem efficiently.

This study aims to forecast the future of the Korean society via a big data analysis. Based upon two sets of database - a collection of 46,000,000 news on 127 media in Naver Portal operated by Naver Corporation and a collection of 70,000 academic papers of social sciences registered in KCI (Korea Citation Index of National Research Foundation) between 2005-2017, 40 most frequently occurring keywords were selected. Next, their temporal variations were traced and compared in terms of number and pattern of frequencies. In addition, core issues of the future were identified through keyword network analysis. In the case of the media news database, such issues as economy, polity or technology turned out to be the top ranked ones. As to the academic paper database, however, top ranking issues are those of feeling, working or living. Referring to the system and life-world conceptual framework suggested by $J{\ddot{u}}rgen$ Habermas, public interest of the future inclines to the matter of 'system' while professional interest of the future leans to that of 'life-world.' Given the disparity of future interest, a 'mismatch paradigm' is proposed as an alternative to social forecasting, which can substitute the existing paradigms based on the ideas of deficiency or deprivation.

This study was performed to determine the effect of psyllium husk addition on the physical properties of rice extrudates. Rice-based formulations mixed with psyllium husk (0, 7, 14 and 21%) were extruded at a die temperature of 140℃, screw speed of 200 rpm, and moisture content of 20%. As the content of psyllium husk increased, expansion ratio decreased, while piece density and specific length increased. Apparent elastic modulus, breaking strength, adhesiveness, and hardness augmented with an elevation in psyllium husk content. Lightness declined as psyllium husk content furthered, while redness, yellowness, and color difference intensified. Water soluble index and water absorption index increased with an increased amount of psyllium husk. In conclusion, the addition of psyllium affected the expansion of extruded rice snack possessing hard texture, small cells, and sticky texture due to higher water absorption during hydration.

Cloud detection and removal from satellite images is an essential process for topographic observation and analysis. Threshold-based cloud detection techniques show stable performance because they detect using the physical characteristics of clouds, but they have the disadvantage of requiring all channels' images and long computational time. Cloud detection techniques using deep learning, which have been studied recently, show short computational time and excellent performance even using only four or less channel (RGB, NIR) images. In this paper, we confirm the performance dependence of the deep learning network according to the heterogeneous learning dataset with different resolutions. The DeepLabV3+ network was improved so that channel features of cloud detection were extracted and learned with two published heterogeneous datasets and mixed data respectively. As a result of the experiment, clouds' Jaccard index was low in a network that learned with different kind of images from test images. However, clouds' Jaccard index was high in a network learned with mixed data that added some of the same kind of test data. Clouds are not structured in a shape, so reflecting channel features in learning is more effective in cloud detection than spatial features. It is necessary to learn channel features of each satellite sensors for cloud detection. Therefore, cloud detection of heterogeneous sensors with different resolutions is very dependent on the learning dataset.

Since a linear transducer has an area of interest equal to the length of the transducer, the area of interest can be expanded using the virtual convex function installed in the device.However, it was thought that the change in the direction of the ultrasonic sound velocity according to the change in the visual area of interest would affect the image quality, so this was objectively confirmed. For this study, image evaluation and SNR·CNR of the phantom for ultrasound quality control were measured. As a result, in the phantom image evaluation, both images were able to identify structures in functional resolution, grayscale, and dynamic range. However, it was confirmed that the standard image was excellent in the reproducibility of the size and shape of the structure. As a result of SNR·CNR evaluation, SNR·CNR of most trapezoidal images was low, except for structures at specific locations. In addition, through the statistical analysis graph, it was further confirmed that the SNR and CNR for each depth decreased as the size of the cystic structure decreased. Through this study, it was confirmed that the use of the function has the advantage of providing a wide visual area of interest, but it has an effect on the image quality. Therefore, when using the virtual convex function, it is judged that the examiner should use it in an appropriate situation and conduct various studies to acquire high-quality images and to improve the understanding and proficiency of the equipment.
