The Mireuksaji stone pagoda is constructed Baekje Period in the 7th century which is located in Iksan, Korea. This stone pagoda designated by National Treasure No. 11 is the only remaining pagoda. This pagoda has lost the original form in part and the whole stonework wase dismantled. Work for the restoration is currently in progress. This study was divided into soil strata such as construct layer of the temple site, foundation layer of the pagoda basement, and construct layer of the stylobate by stratum to interpretation the skill of rammed earth and making techniques. The of physical, mineralogical and geochemical characteristics of soil samples were identified. Five pieces of soil in and around the Mireuksaji temple site was selected for the comparative study to interpretate the mutual homogeneity among soil stratum. As a result, artificial addition has not been identified in all soil samples using rammed earth. The soils used for the basement of the stone pagoda (construct layer of the temple site, foundation layer of the pagoda basement, construct layer of the stylobate) were confirmed to be the same origin as soil in and around Mireuksaji temple site. Thus these results indicate that the basement of the pagoda was constructed using soils in and around the Mireuksaji temple site without work as careful selection.

The term hybridity has recently emerged as one of the most popularized leitmotivs in contemporary diasporic and transnational problematics on migrants' nomadic experiences. Especially, in postcolonial politics, hybridity is argued to provide a critical 'third space' on which to challenge discursive boundaries and redescribe power-embedded history However, this paper suggests that the hybrid subject position can be easily articulated in producing new cultural discourse and empowering hegemonic subjects in certain spates. Based on distinguishing the intentional, conscious hybridity from the organic, lived hybridity, this research Intends to investigate the Janus-faced, double-edged nature of the postcolonial politics of hybridity in the case of Los Angeles Koreatown. First, I discuss how a place of organic hybridity in Koreatown can lead to challenging invented and depoliticized ethnicity. At the second half of this paper, 1 focus on understanding the ways in which new Korean American professionals and elites employ the discourse of '1.5 generation' as an intentional hybridity for empowering their own political position at a local scale. I conclusively suggest that hybridity should be a deconstructive strategy to unlearn dominant socio-spatial boundaries rather than bring about the third space as a reterritorialized political position.

In Korea, a series of noise-reduced aluminum forms are being recently used in apartment housing construction. However, their complicated and time-consuming work processes, and the noise which is still generated due to the inherent property of aluminum when especially installing and dismantling them have been pointed out as a problem to be certainly solved for increasing their practical use in construction sites. The primary objectives of this study are proposing an optimal conceptual design of a newly designed noise-reduced aluminum form and verifying the technical feasibility by conducting a working mock-up drive experiment. Thus, conventional noise-reduced aluminum forms have been analyzed and three conceptual designs of a newly noise-reduced aluminum forms have been deducted. AHP has been applied to a survey data collected by interviewing field experts. A trade-off analysis results have shown that 'Noise-reduced System Aluminum Form with a Drop-down Floor Post and Adaptive Beam' the highest weights of safety(0.52), work convenience(0.54) and thus selected. The suggested conceptual design in this study improved problems of conventional system aluminum forms. It is also expected that the suggested design will be used as a reliable guideline for the actual development of an aluminum form that ensures noise-reduce, work convenience and labor safety.

Animation has been developed with trying a transformation of a reality continuously. The animation's trio is needed to study how the reality is expressed, transform, and developed through postmodernism, which the culture characteristic is one of culture phenomenons. First of all, to study, it s need to define what is animation and postmodernism. And then, the characteristic of postmodernism is studied to figure out how to relate with the reality in animation by the definition, and the reality is classified and expressed properly by a animation film. According to the study, the theory of simulation in animation based on Jean Baudrillard is to express the reality of post modern animation. 11 also shows what master narration is collapsed by the disorganization an outlook on consideration of an idealism and an absolutism and by the reality based on the implication aesthetic through the stream of the times. Finally, according to the combination of the genre such as the mixing 3-Dimensional and 2-Dimensional images, the appearance of the new genre is a result of the autogenous efforts in the animation which makes up the lack of the narrative due to the magical character of the hyper-realism image and the external image caused by the rapid development of technology. In this paper, the post modern reality is analyzed by a animation film such 'Animatrix', and the paper discusses how to express and re-analyze post modern reality in the animation.

Effects of the aluminum melting temperature, melting time and a kind of flux agents on the distribution of surrogate nuclide were investigated in the electric furnace at the aluminum melting including surrogate radionuclides(Co, Cs, Sr) in order to establish the fundamental research of the melting technology for the metallic wastes from the decommissioning of the TRIGA research reactor. It was verified that the fluidity of aluminum melt was increased by adding flux agent but it was slightly varied according to the sort of flux agents. The results of the XRD analysis showed that the surrogate nuclides move into the slag phase and then they were combined with aluminum oxide to form more stable compound. The weight of the slag generated from aluminum melting test increased with increasing melting temperature and melting time and the increase rate of the slag depended on the kind of flux agents added in the aluminum waste. The concentration of the cobalt in the ingot phase decreased with increasing reaction temperature but it increased in the slag phase up to 90$\%$according to the experimental conditions. The volatile nuclides such as Cs and Sr considerably transferred from the ingot phase to the slag and dust phase.

Our world is communicating by digital network that transcends time and space. In such world of rich technology, people are longing for humanity and analog esthetic. 'Art' stimulates analog esthetic and 'design' is a good and easy tool to show personal esthetic preferences. This study is about the convergence of digital and analog art focusing on the researcher's artwork series. The series is derived from series. They are made by cut and deconstructed pieces from the original series. I assembled these pieces into another creation by using graphic editing programs. I looked into the succession cases of art and design collaborations and developed various design products with the assembled artwork images. Through this, I want to communicate more familiarly with the world widely connected to network viewers. There are already many fine artists making their artworks into design products. Collaboration with cultural art and commercial product provides win-win effect to artist, company, and consumer. It also creates innovative products and values. In this study, I try to design products from various fields using my artwork images, and research about how to promote the artist and art products effectively to the world.

Quorum sensing (QS) is a cell-to-cell communication system, which is used by many bacteria to regulate diverse gene expression in response to changes in population density. Bacteria recognize the differences in cell density by sensing the concentration of signal molecules such as N-acyl-homoserine lactones (AHL) and autoinducer-2 (AI-2). In particular, QS plays a key role in biofilm formation, which is a specific bacterial group behavior. Biofilms are dense aggregates of packed microbial communities that grow on surfaces, and are embedded in a self-produced matrix of extracellular polymeric substances (EPS). QS regulates biofilm dispersal as well as the production of EPS. In some bacteria, biofilm formations are regulated by c-di-GMP-mediated signaling as well as QS, thus the two signaling systems are mutually connected. Biofilms are one of the major virulence factors in pathogenic bacteria. In addition, they cause numerous problems in industrial fields, such as the biofouling of pipes, tanks and membrane bioreactors (MBR). Therefore, the interference of QS, referred to as quorum quenching (QQ) has received a great deal of attention. To inhibit biofilm formation, several strategies to disrupt bacterial QS have been reported, and many enzymes which can degrade or modify the signal molecule AHL have been studied. QQ enzymes, such as AHL-lactonase, AHL-acylase, and oxidoreductases may offer great potential for the effective control of biofilm formation and membrane biofouling in the future. This review describes the process of bacterial QS, biofilm formation, and the close relationship between them. Finally, QQ enzymes and their applications for the reduction of biofouling are also discussed.

For several decades, many countries operating nuclear power plants have been studying the various disposal alternatives to dispose of the spent nuclear fuel or high-level radioactive waste safely. In this paper, as a direct disposal of spent nuclear fuels for deep geological disposal concept, the rod consolidation from spent fuel assembly for the disposal efficiency was considered and analyzed. To do this, a concept of spent fuel rod consolidation was described and the related concepts of disposal canister and disposal system were reviewed. With these concepts, several thermal analyses were carried out to determine whether the most important requirement of the temperature limit for a buffer material was satisfiedin designing an engineered barrier of a deep geological disposal system. Based on the results of thermal analyses, the deposition hole distance, disposal tunnel spacing and heat release area of a disposal canister were reviewed. And the unit disposal areas for each case were calculated and the disposal efficiencies were evaluated. This evaluation showed that the rod consolidation of spent nuclear fuel had no advantages in terms of disposal efficiency. In addition, the cooling time of spent nuclear fuels from nuclear power plant were reviewed. It showed that the disposal efficiency for the consolidated spent fuel rods could be improved in the case that cooling time was 70 years or more. But, the integrity of fuels and other conditions due to the longer term storage before disposal should be analyzed.

1992년 전반기에 우리나라에 근해해운기업 3개사가 도산하였으며, 많은 그해해운기업이 심한 경영상의 어려움을 겪고 있다. 그러한 도산이유를 대별하면 기업 내적요인과 기업 외적요인으로 나눌 수 있을 것이다. 이 논문에서는 기업외적 요인의 하나로서 근해지역에 있어서의 선박의 과잉공급과 운임의 덤핑을 상정하고서 최근 소련의 연방해체 이후 극동지역에서 생성되기 시작한 러시아의 해운사기업의 생성배경 및 경영형태를 분석하고, 그러한 러시아의 해운사기업이 보유하고 있는 선박이 우리나라의 근해해운시장에 미치는 영향을 살펴본 뒤 이에 대처하기 위한 우리나라 해운정책의 기본방향을 제시한다. 이 논문의 목적을 달성하기 위하여 사용된 연구방법은 문헌조사, 현장조사, 그리고 면접법이다. 본 연구는 러시아 해운사기업의 생성근원이 되는 국영해운기업, 실제로 극동지역에서 경영되고 있는 러시아의 해운 기업 및 러시아 연방정부의 교통부산하 해운국을 방문하여 각 조직의 최고 책임자 및 주요 인사를 대상으로 면접과 현장조사를 실시하였으며, 일본 및 러시아의 해운연구기관의 주요인사와 우리 나라의 해운기업의 최고경영자들도 본 연구의 면접대상에 포함되었다. 이 연구에서 도출된 주요 결과로서는 첫째, 러시아의 해운사기업은 소련연방산하에 이었던 국영해운기업에서 제공된 매운 낮은 용선료의 선박과 우리나라의 근해선사 또는 대리점과의 노우 하우(know-how) 의 결합에 의해 생성되었으며 둘째, 그러한 매커니즘에 의해서 우리나라 근해지역에 영업활동중인 러시아 선박은 재화중량톤수 약 4천 내지 5천톤에 해당하는 하천.해상형태(river sea type)의 살물선으로서 총 40여척에 달하고 있으며, 셋째, 그러한선박의 용선료는 1992년 3월에 현재 우리나라 근해해운시장에서 형성된 용선료 수준의 50% - 60%에 해당하며, 넷째, 우리나라의 근해화물을 원활하게 확보.수송하기 위하여 일부의 선박은 편의치적국의 선적을 이용하여 운항되기도 한다. 이 연구의 결과를 바탕으로 한 정책적 제언은 경영기술, 자본력, 선박의 질적수준 및 경쟁의 측면에서 일본보다도 취약한 상태에 있는 우리나라의 근해해운을 성장.발전시키기 위해서는 정부는 먼저 연안해운에 적용시키고 잇는 면허제도를 점진적으로 개방화시켜 우리나라의 연안해운의 자본력을 증강시키고 경쟁원리에 의한 경쟁력을 제고시켜야 하며, 제 2선적제도의 발달과 해운경영의 국제성에 맞추어 근해해역에서 활동하는 우리나라의 선박에대해서 부분적으로 선박의 국적을 점차 개방시켜 나가는 정책을 검토해야 할 단계라는 것이다. 이러한 점에 있어서 지난 30여년간 외항해운부문에 중점을 두어온 우리나라의 해운정책은 이제 근해해운정책의 개발에도 관심을 기울여야 하는 전환점에 있다고 할 수있다.

The purpose of this study is to analyze the effect of social trust on risk perception. In other words, I tried to analyze empirically how the generalized trust about other people they have based on subjective perception of Seoul citizens affects the perception of risk factors. First, the risk factors that Seoul citizens face in everyday life are classified into five categories: natural disaster, technical disaster risk, economic risk, social disintegration risk and health risk. Then, the influence of social trust on each of these risk perception was analyzed by multiple regression model. The results show that social trust has a statistically significant negative impact on all types of risk perception. These results imply that social trust makes low-risk assessments of various risk factors around people. The implication of this study is that the responsibility for risk is given to the central and local governments in the modern risk society. In order to prevent effective risk, it is necessary to make efforts to promote social trust through various activities together with efforts to prevent the spread of unfounded risk will be. And trust among people also promotes cooperation in coping with risks, so it is necessary to promote communication and mutual understanding that can build trust among people in their daily life.
