In this paper, collision analysis is carried out between two FRP fishing boats. A computer simulation with finite element method is used to accomplish this objective. At first, a detailed geometric model of the boat is constructed using 3-D CAD program. The formation of a finite element from a geometric data of the boats is carried out using HYPERMESH that is the commercial software for mesh generation and post processing. Twelve collision configurations are established by combining two kinds of contact angle($90^{\circ},\;135^{\circ}$) and three different speed(5, 10, 15knot) for small and large boats. Collision analysis is accomplished using DYNA3D. Stress distribution and deformation shape are investigated for each collision condition. In general, $90^{\circ}$ collision angle generate larger stress than $135^{\circ}$ case and the collision for two moving boats showed larger maximum stress than the case that one is moving and the other is stationary. When analysis is carried out until 150ms contact parts of two boats are broken for 10 and 15knot collision speed, in which maximum stress is larger than ultimate strength of the material.

Chungkookjang was fermented by B. subtilis MC31, a ${\gamma}$-amino butyric acid (GABA) producing microorganism. The characteristics of Chungkookjang were investigated while fermenting. Twenty four amino acids were detected in Chungkookjang, leucine was the highest of them all. Total cell populations of B. subtilis MC31 phase were between log $9.52{\pm}0.5$ ~ log $9.049{\pm}0.5$ CFU/g at stationary phase. Contents of moisture, crude ash, crude protein, crude lipid and crude fiber are $61.07{\pm}0.01%$, $1.52{\pm}0.01%$, $17.66{\pm}0.04%$, $8.96{\pm}0.03%$ and 2.61%, respectively. Contents of ammonia type nitrogen, amino type nitrogen and reducing sugar were increased during fermentation at $40^{\circ}C$ for 72 hr, however those of titratable acidity and total sugar were decreased. pH was slowly alkalized during fermentation. Viscous substance and protease contents in Chungkookjang were $4.7{\pm}0.05%$ and $0.519{\pm}7.36$ g/l, apiece. When the fibrin plate and Robbin method for fibrinolytic activity were applied, B. subtilis MC31 showed high activity. These results suggested that B. subtilis MC31 is suitable to be used as a starter to enhance the quality of Chungkookjang.

Microorganisms capable of producing biosurfactant were isolated from oil-contaminated soils and seawater. Among them, the selected strain SW1 was identified as Pseudomonas sp. by taxonomical characteristic tests, and so tentatively named Pseudomonas sp. SWI. The optimal temperature and initial pH for biosurfactant production were TEX>30^{\circ}C.$ and 7.0, respectively. The optimal medium composilion for the production of biosurfactant by Pseudomonas sp. SW1 were hexadecane of 2.0%, yeast extract of 0.04%, $K_{2}HPO_4$ of 0.02%, $KH_2PO_4$ of 0.03% and $MgSO_4$ center dot $7H_2O$ of 0.04%, respectively. Under the above conditions, minimum wrface tension was 32 mN/m after incubation of 2 days. The biosurfactant was produced during initial stationary phase in the optimal medium. Pseudotnonas sp. SWl utilized various hydrocarbons such as Bunker oils, n-alkanes and branched alkanes as a sole carbon source.

A conventional elastic material replacement and performance evaluation are very complicated and time-consuming, and it is difficult to know when to replace the elastic material in advance. By comparing with the product limit and the functional limit, the necessity of elastic material replacement and the improvement of track support stiffness according to replacement can be immediately demonstrated based on experimental data. Using an evaluation system of track support stiffness, the performance evaluation data for elastic materials obtained through field tests using software for track support stiffness is integrated and managed on the administrator's computer. Therefore, the replacement plan is established and maintenance history is managed by identifying the replacement time and location of elastic materials. It is possible to evaluate the performance and condition of the elastic material at the various points during the working time of the track inspection and the track performance (track support stiffness) and durability of the elastic material (aging level, spring stiffness variation rate, etc.) at the operation condition. The elastic material could be replaced timely, and the deterioration of the elastic material can be continuously monitored.

In the existing research paper, we developed Mechanical Pressurizing Equipment(MPE) that can apply a certain amount of pressure and found out about improving the bonding strength of repair materials constructed in the repair section, and if pressurized, the bonding strength could be increased. In this study, the pressure of Mechanical Pressurizing Equipment(MPE) was changed to 0, 10, 30, 50, and 80 kPa, and the test was conducted to select effective pressure by measuring the flexural, compressive, and bonding strength of the specimens and deformation of the pressure plate at the age of 3 and 28th days. As a result of the test, 30 kPa was the most efficient pressure for the MPE. After producing the specimen with three types of repair materials with different main components, the bonding strength was measured according to dry and wet conditions, construction site (ceiling, wall and floor), and whether or not pressurized, on the 3rd, 7th, 14th, and 28th, indicating that the repair materials mixed with cellulose fiber was most effective for the MPE.

This study is a descriptive research study to compare the safety perception between patients and nurses and to identify the factors affecting the nurses' safety management activities in tertiary hospitals. Data were collected with structured questionnaires from 147 patients and 147 nurses from a university hospital in J city, Gyeongnam, from July 24 to September 23, 2019, and analyzed using SPSS 23.0. The result showed that the patient's safety perception was significantly higher than the nurse's perception. The significant factors affecting patient management activity were nurse's educational level, position, effective communication, patient safety perception, and perception of importance on patient safety management. In the multiple regression analysis, knowledge about 'effective communication', and 'concerned about patient safety management', explained 54.8% of the nurses' patient management activity. Based on the results of this study, it is emphasized that nurses need to develop strategies to improve the communication and attention between patients and hospital members to improve patient safety management activities in tertiary hospitals.

In this study, 3D analysis was compared in evaluating the track deformation of subway structures during adjacent excavation. For the 3D analysis model, the boundary conditions of the tunnel model and the application level of the ground water were analyzed as variables. As the result of the effects of track irregularity using the 3D model, the analysis model considering the site ground water level instead of the design values and changing the constraint of the boundary condition is more reasonable. In addition, the influence of track irregularity due to the boundary condition and load condition of the analytical model is more obvious in the factors directly affected by the longitudinal relative displacement of the rail, such as alignment, cross level and gauge irregularity. Therefore, the evaluation on track stability according to adjacent excavation work was appropriate to analysed the longitudinal deformation of the track by using 3D model that could be investigate the deformation of rail. In addition, the boundary condition and load condition(ground water level) of the numerical model was important for accurate analysis results.

The Web-based the genus Haliotis SNP database was constructed on the basis of Intel Server Platform ZSS130 dual Xeon 3.2 GHz cpu and Linux-based (Cent OS) operating system. Haliotis related sequences (2,830 nucleotide sequences, 9,102 EST sequences) were downloaded through NCBI taxonomy browser. In order to eliminate vector sequences, we conducted vector masking step using cross match software with vector sequence database. In addition, poly-A tails were removed using Trimmest software from EMBOSS package. The processed sequences were clustered and assembled by TGICL package (TIGR tools) equipped with CAP3 software. A web-based interface (Haliotis SNP Database, http://www.haliotis.or.kr) was developed to enable optimal use of the clustered assemblies. The Clustering Res. menu shows the contig sequences from the clustering, the alignment results and sequences from each cluster. And also we can compare any sequences with Haliotis related sequences in BLAST menu. The search menu is equipped with its own search engine so that it is possible to search all of the information in the database using the name of a gene, accession number and/or species name. Taken together, the Web-based SNP database for Haliotis will be valuable to develop SNPs of Haliotis in the future.

This report Introduces a total heat exchanger in a solar air-conditioning system using Lithium Chloride(LiCl) solution. The hot and humid outside air is cooled and dehumidified by LiCl solution that is sprayed on the packed layer of the total heat exchanger. LiCl solution once diluted is concentrated again in a regenerator using solar energy. Three types as the packed materials were used in this experiment and the dehumidification performance was evaluated by the value of $k_xa(kg/h{\cdot}m^3{\cdot}{\Delta}x)$, overall mass transfer coefficient based on a humidity ratio potential difference, the influence of inlet LiCl solution flow rate, air flow rate, packed layer height on $k_xa$ was investigated. It was found that air flow rate, LiCl solution flow rate, packed layer height for all types had a great influnce on the value of $k_xa$.

Nocardia farcinia, an aerobic, gram-positive bacilli actinomycetes of the genus Nocardia, is an uncommon pathogen found in humans. The most common Nocardia infection sites are the lung, central nervous system, and skin. Even though hematogenous dissemination can occur, isolation of the organism from blood cultures is very rare. We report a case of Nocardia infection that was isolated on blood cultures. A 59-year-old male with a medical history that includes a liver transplantation 6-years prior due to hepatocellular carcinoma secondary to chronic hepatitis B, developed pneumonia and was transferred to Severance Hospital. At the time of admission, the patient's initial exam showed hypothermia, tachypnea, and hypotension. His chest radiograph showed severe pneumonia and a large abscess on left upper lobe. Under the presumptive diagnosis of bacterial pneumonia or other opportunistic infection, we started broad spectrum antibiotics. However, he developed Nocardia sepsis, rapidly deteriorated, and subsequently died.
