In recognition of the increasing social attention paid to the notion of how to die well, this study explored what it is that middle-aged and older Koreans think of as "dying well." Specifically, it was aimed at classifying the perceptions people middle-aged and older have regarding dying well. To this end, we used data from the National Survey on Well-Dying, which was conducted in 2018 by the Korea Institute for Health and Social Affairs, and employed Latent Class Analysis. The demographic characteristics of each of the classified subgroups were identified through technical statistics. The types identified were multilayered depending on the imminence of death, perspectives of the last stages before dying, and the meaning of death in the context of social relationships. These types differed according to gender and subjective health conditions. Based on our findings in this study, we put forward policy suggestions about awareness improvement of personal and social levels, promoting on comprehensive death preparation, providing a system to reduce the cost of medical and nursing expense at the end of one's life, promoting of the right to self-determination regarding death, raising social attention to groups that are least prepared for dying well.

This study aimed to verify the effects of nutritional status, K-ADL, K-IADL, and social network on the life satisfaction of the elderly in home. Total 213 research subjects participated in this study, and their average age was 71.38±5.59. As the methods of analysis, using the SPSS 21.0, this study examined the differences between variables in accordance with the general characteristics, and then verified the correlations between independent variables of nutritional status, K-ADL, K-IADL, social network(family networks, friends networks), and life satisfaction. In order to verify the factors having effects on the life satisfaction of the elderly in home, the stepwise multiple regression analysis was conducted. In the results of this study, in the general characteristics, the life satisfaction showed statistically significant differences in accordance with education(F=5.280, p=.002), economic condition(F=22.407, p<.001), monthly income(F=3.181, p=.015), and subjective health status(F=14.933, p<.001). In the results of verifying the correlation between independent variables, the life satisfaction showed positive correlations with family networks(r=268, p<.001) and friends networks(r=.286, p<.001) while the nutritional status(r=-.222, p=.001), K-IADL(r=-.235, p=.001), and interdependent social support(r=-.283, p<.001) showed negative correlations. The predictive factors on the life satisfaction of the elderly in home included the economic condition(β=.358, p<.001), subjective health status(β=.245, p<.001), interdependent social support(β=-.158, p=.009), and K-IADL(β=-.153, p=.012), and the explanatory power was 30.1%. The regression model was statistically significant(F=23.778, p<.001). Based on such results of this study, it would be necessary to develop programs that could maintain and improve the health of the elderly, and also provide financial support to the elderly suffering from economic hardship, in order to improve the life satisfaction of the elderly in home. Moreover, there should be the concrete measures for vitalizing the community-connected activities for interdependent social support.

아연도금강판은 내식성이 우수하여 자동차용 강판으로 널리 쓰이고 있다. 자동차용 강판은 spot 용접에 의해서 각 부분들이 접합되는데 도금층으로 사용되는 아연은 강판보다 융점이 낮아서 용접작업을 저하시킨다. 현재 사용되는 작업조건에서 용접 타 접수가 평균 2000회를 넘게되면 용접되는 부위의 면적이 감소되어 접합강도가 떨어지게된다. 따라서, 아연이 도금된 강판을 용접하게되면 작업성이 저하되므로 도금층의 성분에 대한 변화를 주므로서 이에 대한 개선을 할 필요가 있다.. Cole, Dickenson 및 Kimchi 등은 도금충내의 알루미늄을 0.1~0.5%(중량비) 함유하는 아연도금강판은 저항용접시 도금충내의 알루미늄 함량에 따라 용접성이 영향을 받는다고 보고하였다. 전극수명은 도금층내의 알루미늄 함량이 증가할수록 떨어지는데 알루미늄이 0.5% 이 하로 함유된 아연도금강판의 경우는 용접타접수가 2000~6000회에 이르르나 알루미늄 이 50%이상 함유된 합금도금강판은 200-600회에 불과한 것으로 나타난다. H. M Matsuda 등은 도금층의 알루미늄이 용접성에 영향을 미치는 이유로서 도금층의 용융 온도 변화를 지적하였다. 도금충내에 알루미늄의 함량이 높게되면 철과 아연의 확산에 의한 합금화 반응이 저하되어 도금층의 용융온도가 높아지지 못하므로 용접성이 나빠지게 된다. 본 연구에서는 아연도금욕의 조성은 기존의 상태로 유지하고 제3의 원소를 첨가하여 도금층에 함유되는 알루미늄의 양에 미치는 효과를 조사하였다. 도금층의 불성변화 및 그에 따른 내식성을 조사하였으며 도금층의 조직변화도 함께 관찰하였다. 아울러 첨가원소에 의한 도금욕의 특성도 평가하였다. 첨가원소에 의해서 도금충내의 알루미늄 함량은 감소하는 경향을 나타내었으며 도금층의 물성은 주어진 조성범위 내에서 별다른 변화를 나타내지 않았다.brittlement)기구도 제안되고 었다. 원전의 냉각수는 고 순도의 물이지만 수 처리 과정과 웅축기 배관의 누수로 인한 산소, $Cu^{2+},{\;}S_xO_6{\;}^{2-}(x=3~6)$ 등이 유입되어 오염되는데 이려한 오염물질들이 수 ppm정도 소량 포함된 경우 응 력부식민감도는 상당히 증가된다. 산성분위기 흑은 산소, $Cu^{2+}$, 등이 소량 포합된 산화성 분위기 그리고 sufur oxyanion 에 오염된 고온의 물에서 600 의 IGSCC 민감도는 예민화도가 증가할 수록 민감하여 304 의 IGSCC 와 매우 유사한 거동을 보인다. 본 강연에서는 304 와 600 의 고온 물에서 일어나는 IGSCC 민감도에 미치는 환경, 예민화처리, 합금원소의 영향을 고찰하고 이에 대한 최근의 연구 동향과 방식 방법을 다룬다.다.의 목적과 지식)보다 미학적 경험에 주는 영향이 큰 것으로 나타났으며, 모든 사람들에게 비슷한 미학적 경험을 발생시키는 것 이 밝혀졌다. 다시 말하면 모든 사람들은 그들의 문화적인 국적과 사회적 인 직업의 차이, 목적의 차이, 또한 환경의 의미의 차이에 상관없이 아름다 운 경관(High-beauty landscape)을 주거지나 나들이 장소로서 선호했으며, 아름답다고 평가했다. 반면에, 사람들이 갖고 있는 문화의 차이, 직업의 차 이, 목적의 차이, 그리고 환경의 의미의 차이에 따라 경관의 미학적 평가가 달라진 것으로 나타났다.corner$적 의도에 의한 경관구성의 일면을 확인할수 있지만 엄밀히 생각하여 보면 이러한 예의 경우도 최락의 총체적인 외형은 마찬가지로 $\ulcorner$순응$\lrcorner$의 범위를 벗어나지 않는다. 그렇기 때문에도 $\ulcorner$

This study applied the Kalman Filter for real-time forecasting the G/R (ground rain gauge rainfall/radar rainfall) ratio to correct the mean field bias of the very-short-range-forecast (VSRF) rainfall. The MAPLE-forecasted rainfall was used as the VSRF rainfall, also the methodology for deciding the G/R ratio was improved by evaluating the change of G/R ratio characteristics depending on the threshold and accumulation time. This analysis was done for the inland, mountain, and coastal regions, separately, for their comparison. As the results, more stable G/R ratio could be estimated by applying the threshold and accumulation time, whose forecasting accuracy could also be secured. The accuracy of the corrected rainfall forecasting by the forecasted G/R ratio was the best in the inland region but the worst in the coastal region.

The purpose of this study was to analyze factors affecting the health behaviors and urinary tract tests of adults and their effects on periodontitis by using raw data from the 6th National Health and Nutrition Survey (1st, 2nd, 3rd year). The subjects were 40 years older who had oral examination and urine tests such as glycosuria and ketonuris. The final 11,036 subjects were analyzed using SPSS. ${\chi}^2-test$ and logistic regression analysis were used to analyze the demographic characteristics, health behaviors, and differences in urine levels and presence or absence of periodontitis. There was statistically significant difference between the urine test values and the incidence of periodontal disease in urine glucose and proteinuria. Risk factors were male, age, income and education level, rural, smoking, obesity, urine glucose. These results suggest that improvement of health behavior and aggressive management of systemic disease factors are necessary and development of management and preventive program of Periodontitis is necessary.

The purpose of this study is to classify the customers according to the characteristics of the relational benefits and to compare the performances of the sub-groups. As a result of the research, the group type according to the relational benefits was subdivided into 3 groups, and each group was named emotional relational group, continuous relational group and intermittent relational group considering customer characteristics. First, the emotional relational group is the group that emphasizes the empathy and assurance between the service provider and the customer, and the continuous relational group is the group with the highest social, confidence and economic benefits. The intermittent relational group was simply a transaction-oriented group. This implies that a differentiated customer management strategy is needed for each relational benefit group based on customer experience in medical services.

This study aims to analyze economically active females' factors influencing problematic drinking, by their jobs. It examined the socio-demographic and health-related characteristics and problematic drinking status of economically active females over 19, by using data from the 6th Korea National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey. They were analyzed by using IBM SPSS 25.0 and the complex sampling design. The findings show that the problematic drinking rates of economically active females were varied by their jobs: 19.1% for office job; 24.8% for manufacturing job; 12.3% for service job. The factors influencing problematic drinking were also differed by jobs: subjective heath status for office job; marital status and smoking for service job; marital status for manufacturing job. They suggest that convergent drinking management programs customized to jobs should be developed by considering the characteristics of females' physical and emotional traits and their jobs, to reduce their problematic drinking rates.

Laminar-shear-boxes are widely used to simulate free-field seismic ground response by using a l-g shaking table or geo centrifuge in geotechnical earthquake engineering. This study numerically modeled and compared the ground responses in the free field, rigid box, and laminar shear box by using a 3-D FEM program. It is found from the numerical simulations that the laminar shear box can simulate the free field ground movement more precisely than the rigid box. However, the laminar shear box underestimated the surface acceleration of the free field ground. It also showed low-frequency characteristics probably because the stiffness and inertia effect of surrounding ground are neglected.
