A methodology has been presented for evaluating the partial safety factors on the sliding failure mode of vertical caissons of composite breakwaters and for determining the cross sections of those by Level I reliability-based design method. Especially, a mathematical model has been suggested for the sake of a consistency of code format as well as convenience of application in practical design, for which the uncertainties associated with buoyancy and its own weight can be taken into account straightforwardly. Furthermore, design criteria equation has been derived by considering accurately the effect of uplift pressure, so that the cross sections of caissons can be assessed which must be safe against the sliding failure. It has been found that cross sections estimated from partial safety factors proposed in this paper are in very good agreement with the results of Level II AFDA and Level III MCS under the same target probability of failure. However, partial safety factors of the Technical Standards and Commentaries for Port and Harbour Facilities in Japan and Coastal Engineering Manual in USA tend to estimate much bigger or smaller cross sections in comparison to the present results. Finally, many reliability re-analyses have been performed in order to conform whether the stability level of cross section estimated by Level I reliability-based design method is satisfied with the target probability of failure of partial safety factors or not.

Objective : This study aimed to assess the applicability of the Yonsei Lifestyle Profile (YLP), initially developed for adults, for adolescents and verify its reliability and validity. Methods : This study evaluated the reliability and validity of the YLP among 436 middle and high school students in South Korea. The internal consistency of this scale was analyzed using Cronbach's alpha and Spearman-Brown's coefficient. Concurrent validity was assessed using Pearson's correlation coefficient with the Korean Youth Physical Activity Questionnaire, the Korean version of the Children and Adolescents Participation Scale, and the Nutrition Quotient for Adolescents. Results : The overall internal consistency of the YLP items demonstrated high reliability, with a Cronbach's α of .811 and Spearman-Brown's coefficient of .779. Significant positive correlations were observed for physical activity (r=.555, p<.01), activity participation (r=.177, p<.01), and dietary habits (r=.633, p<.05), indicating consistent correlations with the related scales. Conclusion : This study analyzed the YLP targeting adolescents and confirmed its high reliability and significant validity in the areas of physical activity, activity participation, and dietary habits. These findings suggest that the YLP can be utilized as a reliable tool for evaluating healthy lifestyles among adolescents.

It is important for regional comparative analysis about economically active population ratio by sex and total economically active population ratio to a policy data of central and local government. Through the result of comparative analysis, Central and local government can use policies distinctively according to the region and keep the efficiency of detail policy application. This paper shows regional comparative analysis about economically active population ratio by sex for the Seoul metropolitan region, Gangwon region, Chungcheong region, Youngnam region, Honam region using the economically active population survey data in 16 cities and provinces. We used the survey of economically active population for 13 years from 2000 to 2012, we calculated total economically active population ratio and economically active population ratio by sex about the 5 regions. And we analyzed the relative ratio between economically active population ratio of male and female by each region, we also analyzed the results of regional comparative analysis by sex.

Regional comparative analysis for the variability of young man's employment indexes is important to unemployment or employment policy data of central and local government. Through the result of comparative analysis, central and local government can use differentiated policies for the regions and keep the efficiency for the application of detailed policy. In this study, based on economically active population survey data which consider economically active population rate, employment population rate and unemployment rate as typical employment indexes of young man, we analyzed the variability of these indexes by metropolitan cities and province regions using coefficient of variation. Also we proposed the largest index in variability of three employment indexes, and proposed the city and province region with the largest variability for each employment index.

Any errors that are generated in the channels and networks distort the video quality and are propagated in both the spatial and temporal domains. In particular, header errors ran result in serious visual degradation of the output video encoding/decoding schemes that can make an error resilient compressed bit-stream in error prone environments, such as mobile networks. In this paper, we proposes an header error resilience method that consider the activity of macroblock in video bitstream syntex. The extract of header error repaetedly embeds the header parameters into the least significant bits(LSB) of the quantized DCT coefficients prior to VLC. Experimental results show that the proposed error resilience method restores good image quality despite the detected error on header parameters.

The emission factor and activity data of fugitive dust in the domestic agricultural field have been applied to the US inventory system without reflecting the domestic environmental conditions (wind speed, humidity, etc.) and agricultural characteristics. In this study, the temporal resolution was improved for each region by deriving a monthly distribution factor through the application of wind speed and dry season and the spatial resolution was improved for each region by subdivided into dong and ri from ci·gun·gu. Through this study, it is judged that it can be used as an important data for improving the emission and activity data of fugitive dust in the agricultural field that currently exist.

I constructed the 2003 Korean 'social accounting matrix'(SAM) to analyze the multipliers of total demand for each economic activity. I find that the relative magnitude of the influence of the welfare policy to the national economy measured by input-output production multipliers tends to be underestimated compared to SAM multipliers. This is because the total demand multipliers of SAM include the private sector effects, which is not considered in the input-output model. The result also support that income inflows in public service areas including education, health and social work, generate gains in the relative income of households.

The purpose of this study was to investigate retained activity and level for community dwelling healthy and stroke group aged more than 55 years, and to identify group difference for following research. Korean-Activity Card Sort was used to collect research data. The equation for calculating retained activity level was used. Descriptive statistical analysis was used to analyze retained activity level in elderly. Spearman Correlation Coefficients applied to analyze the relation between demographic data and retained level of activities. Mutiple Linear Regression was used to analyze the variables affecting retained activity level. The ratained level of activity, the healthy group perform, was decreased on the stroke group. And statistically significant correlative and affecting variables was different between demographic data and retained activity of individual groups. The results of this research, retained level of activities and group differences, can provide the basic data to provide health care services to adapt or replace activity participation of healthy and stroke group aged more than 55 years.

This paper reports the process two 11th grade students went through in reinventing derivatives on their own via a context problem involving the concept of velocity. In the reinvention process, one of the students conceived a tangent line as the limit of a secant line, and then the other student explained to a peer that the slope of a tangent line was the geometric mean of derivative. The students also used technology to concentrate on essential thinking to search for mathematical concepts and help visually understand them. The purpose of this study was to provide meaningful implications to school practices by describing students' process of reinvention of derivatives. This study revealed certain characteristics of the students' reinvention process of derivatives and changes in the students' thinking process.

Vapor-liquid equilibrium apparatus is designed and set up. The vapor-liquid equilibrium data of the binary system HFC125/134a are measured in the range between 268.15 and 283.15K at five compositions. Twenty-five equilibrium data are obtained. To verify consistency of these data, they are tested for thermodynamic consistency. Based upon the present data, the binary interaction parameter for CSD and RKS equation of state is calculated at five isotherms and comparison with the data in the open literatures is made. Results of Nagel and Bier are in very good agreements with those from this study within 0.32∼1.11% for bubble point pressure and －0.66∼0.18% for vapor mole fraction.
