The reduction factor of pesticides is getting more crucial these days. However, most studies have focused on the relationship between pesticides and commodities. This study was conducted to examine the pesticide reduction factor based on their physicochemical properties. Five pesticides were selected among 288 insecticides by considering the presence of an ionizable group, the log P, and boiling points. The correlation coefficients between log P and removal by tap water, 5% acetic acid, 20% ethanol, and 0.15% detergent were -0.835 (p<0.001), 0.336 (p=0.221), 0.659 (p<0.01), and -0.939 (p<0.001), respectively. Removal by blanching was affected by log P as it showed a positive correlation with a log P of 0.620 (p<0.05). Removal by frying showed a strong negative correlation with a log P of -0.913 (p<0.001). The results suggest that removing pesticides was affected largely by log P and by vapor pressure during cooking, whereas during washing, the matrix of the food also contributed to the reduction.

To increase the utilization of the intelligent methodology of smart farm management, estimation modeling techniques are required to assess prior examination of crops and environment changes in realtime. A mandatory environmental factor such as CO₂ is challenging to establish a reliable estimation model in time domain accounted for indoor agricultural facilities where various correlated variables are highly coupled. Thus, this study was conducted to develop an artificial neural network for reducing time complexity by using environmental information distributed in adjacent areas from a time perspective as input and output variables as CO₂. The environmental factors in the smart farm were continuously measured using measuring devices that integrated sensors through experiments. Modeling 1 predicted by the mean data of the experiment period and modeling 2 predicted by the day-to-day data were constructed to predict the correlation of CO₂. Modeling 2 predicted by the previous day's data learning performed better than Modeling 1 predicted by the 60-day average value. Until 30 days, most of them showed a coefficient of determination between 0.70 and 0.88, and Model 2 was about 0.05 higher. However, after 30 days, the modeling coefficients of both models showed low values below 0.50. According to the modeling approach, comparing and analyzing the values of the determinants showed that data from adjacent time zones were relatively high performance at points requiring prediction rather than a fixed neural network model.

In the combat environments at the sea, the naval ships should have enough structural integrity to perform the task under the enemy's attack and possible damages. Although the naval ships can be damaged from the enemy's attack, those damages should be minimized and the naval ships must maintain their combat capabilities continuously after recoveries from the damages. Therefore, it is ve교 important for modem naval ships, especially combat naval ships, to ensure the survivability. This paper reviewed the developing procedure for the technique of the naval ships structures and described method, especially box girder system considering survivability. The efficiency of box girder is examined by numerical simulation, and it is found that the establishment of box girder is a good design method to improve the survivability.

IPCC 제5차 보고서('14) 및 세계위험보고서('15) 등에서 기후변화에 대한 과학적 근거를 제시하였으며, 상위 위험요소로 '수자원 위기'를 꼽았다. 전 세계적으로 기후변화로 인한 이상 기상현상이 발생하고 있으며, 국내에서도 최근 기후변화에 따른 수문사상의 변화로 극한홍수 및 극한가뭄 등으로 인한 피해가 지속적으로 발생하고 있다. 물 관리에서 기후변화는 가장 큰 리스크 요인이므로 물관리 계획 수립 과정에서 기후변화 영향을 고려한 대책을 수립할 필요가 있다. 기후변화에 대한 댐 취약성 평가 관련 연구가 이루어지고 있으나, 미래 기후변화의 불확실성을 충분히 고려했다고 보기 어렵기 때문에 현업에서 의사결정 도구로 활용하기에는 한계가 있다고 볼 수 있다. 이에 따라 과거 수문자료 및 특정 기후모델에 의존하지 않고 댐 인프라의 취약성을 평가할 수 있는 새로운 방법론이 필요하다고 판단된다. 따라서 본 연구를 통해 기후변화의 불확실성에 대비한 댐 취약성 평가 방법론을 정립하고자 한다. 본 연구에서는 기존에 진행된 IPCC 기후변화 시나리오에 따른 댐 취약성 평가 연구사례 및 한반도의 기후변화 영향 및 수문변화를 조사하였다. 그리고 기후 스트레스 시나리오 기반 취약성 평가 체계 및 방법론을 정립한 뒤, 월 강우량을 4분위로 나누어 각 분위별 강우량과 기온을 변경하여 기후 스트레스 시나리오를 생성하였다. 생성된 기후 스트레스 시나리오와 IPCC 기후변화 시나리오 기반 취약성 평가를 유출 및 저수지 모형을 결합하여 충주댐, 용담댐, 합천댐, 섬진강댐에 실시하였다. 그 결과 기후 스트레스에 따른 유출 취약성 평가는 20분위 수 갈수량을 이용해 연중 보장확률을 나타내는 것이 효율적이며, 온도의 영향보다는 강우의 변동이 댐 이수안전도 취약성 평가에 더 큰 영향을 주는 것을 확인할 수 있었다.

There are usually plenty of material inventories in a construction site. More inventories can meet unexpected demands, and also they may have an economical advantage by avoiding a probable escalation of raw material costs. On the other hand, these inventories also cause negative aspects to increase costs for storing redundant inventory as well as decreasing construction productivity. Therefore, a proper method of deciding an optimal level of material inventories while considering dynamic variations of resources under uncertainty is very crucial for the economical efficiency of construction projects. This research presents a stochastic modelling method for construction operations, particularly targeting a work process involving on-site fabrication of raw materials like iron-rebar process (delivery, cut and assembly, and placement). To develop the model, we apply the concept of factory physics to depict the overall components of a system. Then, an optimal inventory management model is devised to support purchase decisions where users can make timely actions on how much to order and when to buy raw materials. Also, optimal time lag, which minimizes the storage time for pre-assembled materials, is obtained. To verify this method, a real case is applied to elicit an optimal amount of inventory and time lag. It is found that average values as well as variability of inventory level decreased significantly so as to minimize economic costs related to inventory management under uncertain project condition.

화비정질 실리콘의 빛에 의한 노화현상 (light-induced degradation; LID)은 이미 1977년 보고된 Staebler-Wronski 효과에 의해서 확인된 바 있다. 이는 비정질 실리콘이 빛에 노출될 때, 이미 포함되어 있는 수소원자가 빛 에너지에 의해서 이동하게 되고, 이로 인해서 생성 또는 소멸되는 댕글링 본드 때문에 일어난다. 특히, 일상적인 태양광의 노출 하에서 태양전지의 장시간 성능을 예측하는데 물리적인 이해의 부족 및 기술 환경적인 어려움이 있고, 이러한 요인들은 안정된 태양전지를 개발하는데 장해요인으로 나타난다. 그러므로 비정질 실리콘 태양전지가 장시간 태양광에 노출되어 시간이 지남에 따라서 "성능이 어떻게 변하는지?" 그리고 "이에 대한 원인은 무엇인지?" 등은 여전히 과학적으로 풀어야할 숙제로 남아있다. 본 논문에서는 비정질 실리콘으로 구성된 태양전지가 태양광에 노출될 때 시간이 지남에 따라서 (1) 성능이 어떻게 변하는지, (2) LID의 변화는 언제 안정화되는지, 그리고 (3) 성능변화에 대한 원인은 무엇인지에 대해서 논의한다. 본 논문은 장시간 빛에 노출되는 비정질 실리콘 태양전지의 성능예측에 관해서 연구하였다. 결함밀도의 운동학적 모형을 통해서 태양광 노출에 대한 태양전지 성능변화를 예측하는데 초점을 맞추었고, 이를 위해서 태양전지에 조사되는 태양광 세기, 주변온도, 등이 고려되었다. 특히, 전하운반자의 수명이 결함밀도에 의해서 결정되기 때문에 비정질 실리콘 태양전지의 빛에 대한 노화현상 (LID)이 확장지수함수 (stretched-exponential) 완화법칙을 따르는 결함밀도에 의해서 물리적으로 설명된다. 한편 이와 같은 물리적 계산의 유용성을 확인하기 위해서 동일한 태양전지에 대해서 AMPS-1D 컴퓨터 프로그램을 사용하였고, 이를 통해서 비정질 실리콘 태양전지의 빛에 대한 노화현상을 물리적 및 정량적으로 이해하였다. 본 연구에 적용되는 태양전지는 비정질 실리콘으로 구성된 pin 구조 (glass/$SnO_2$/a-SiC:H:B/a-Si:H/a-Si:H:P/ITO)로서 다음과 같은 특성을 갖는다: 에너지 띠간격~1.72 eV, 두께~400 nm, 내부전위~1.05 V, 초기 fill factor~0.71, 초기 단락전류~16.4 mA/$cm^2$, 초기 개방전압 0.90 V, 초기 변환효율 10.6 %. 우리는 이와 같은 연구를 통해서 과학적으로 비정질 실리콘의 빛에 의한 노화현상을 이해하고, 기술적으로 효율 및 경제성이 높은 태양전지의 개발에 도전한다.

Patterning with a geodesic line is essential for economical or efficient usage of membrane materialsin fabric tension membrane structural engineering and analysis. The numerical algorithm to determine the geodesic line for membrane structures is generally classified into two. The first algorithm finds a non-linear shape using a fictitious geodesic element with an initial pre-stress, and the other algorithm is the geodesic line cutting or searching algorithm for arbitrarily curved 3D surface shapes. These two algorithms are still being used only for the three-node plane stress membrane element, and not for the four-node element. The lack of a numerical algorithm for geodesic lines with four-node membrane elements is the main reason for the infrequent use of the four-node membrane element in membrane structural engineering and design. In this paper, a modified numerical algorithm is proposed for the generation of a geodesic line that can be applied to three- or four-node elements at the same time. The explicit non-linear static Dynamic Relaxation Method (DRM) was applied to the non-linear geodesic shape-finding analysis by introducing the fictitiously tensioned 'strings' along the desired seams with the three- or four-node membrane element. The proposed algorithm was used for the numerical example for the non-linear geodesic shape-finding and patterning analysis to demonstrate the accuracy and efficiency, and thus, the potential, of the algorithm. The proposed geodesic shape-finding algorithm may improve the applicability of the four-node membrane element for membrane structural engineering and design analysis simultaneously in terms of the shape-finding analysis, the stress analysis, and the patterning analysis.

Today's individual firms no longer compete as solely autonomous entities, but rather as supply chain. As such the competitive position of a port is not only determined by its internal strengths but also it is also affected by its links in a global supply chin. In other words, port competitiveness is becoming increasingly dependent on external coordination and control of the whole supply chain. The main purpose of this paper is to examine how a port embeds itself into supply chain in order to strengthen its competitive position by focusing on Dubai port case. This paper found that Dubai port used three phases-insertion, integration and dominance-as a strategies for how it can embedded into global supply chain successfully. Dubai's global supply chain strategies give some implications for the further development of the Port of Gwangyang. First, the Port of Gwangyang should fully utilize symbiotic relationship with Gwangyang free Economic Zone. Second, the integration between Korea Container Terminal Authority and GYFEZ can be recommended for fast decision-making and providing a one-stop-service. Finally, Gwangyang should pursue an aggressive supply chain strategy, aims at dominance in the regional port network through port alliance with small and medium ports in neighboring area.

This study was conducted to examine the therapeutic compliance and its related factors in rural women with osteoporosis. A questionnaire survey was performed from April to May in 2000 for 140 osteoporotic patients who were diagnosed from April to June in 1999 through community health program. The study employed the health belief model for predicting and explaining sick role behavior. The analysis techniques employed included contingency table analysis and path analysis using LISREL. The major results of this study were as follows: Of the subjects, 12.1% were continuously complaint, 53.6% were intermittently compliant, and 34.3% were non- compliant to calcium supplement therapy. As the result of path analysis, the therapeutic compliance was significantly higher(${\mid}T{\mid}$ >2.0) as patients had higher perceived severity of disease, lower perceived barriers of treatment, and when patients thought their disease status as severe. As the patients had higher educational level, more experience of mass media contact or health education about osteoporosis, and when family had more concern for patient treatment, they had higher perceived susceptibility of complication(bone fracture)${\mid}T{\mid}$ >2.0). The patients had higher perceived severity(${\mid}T{\mid}$ >2.0) as they had more educational level, more advice for treatment from their doctors, and when family had more concern for their treatment. As the patients had more advice for treatment from their doctors and when family had more concern for their treatment, they had higher perceived benefit of treatment and lower perceived barriers to treatment(${\mid}T{\mid}$ >2.0). In order to improve the therapeutic compliance in rural osteoporotic women, it would be necessary that the patient should recognize their disease severity properly. And the perceived barriers should be removed through supportive environments for osteoporosis treatment such as doctor 's more advice and family 's more concern for treatment. In addition, effective and continuous management system for osteoporotic patients should be established.

실리콘 이종접합 태양전지 제작을 위한 주요 요소기술 중 TCO/a-Si:H 간의 계면 특성은 태양전지 효율을 결정하는 주요 인자이다. 일반적으로 투명전도 산화막으로는 ZnO:Al 또는 ITO 가 사용되고 있으며 Zn, In, Sn, O 등의 확산과 Si원소의 확산으로 TCO/a-Si:H 계면에서 $SiO_x$가 생성되어 태양전지 충진률을 감소시키는 영향을 미친다. 따라서 본 연구에서는 TCO/a-Si 계면에서 확산을 방지 하면서 패시베이션 역할을 하는 완충층을 삽입하여 실리콘 이종접합 태양전지의 효율을 높이는 연구를 수행하였다. 완충층으로 사용된 ZnO:Al의 수소화와 Zn 박막, $TiO_2$ 박막의 전기 광학적 특성을 분석하였고 AES 분석을 통해 $SiO_x$의 생성과 각 원소의 확산정도를 분석하고, CTLM을 이용하여 TCO/완충층/a-Si 간의 접촉저항을 측정하였다. 결과적으로 완충층으로 사용된 $TiO_2$(5nm)는 광특성에 큰 감소요인 없이 전기적 특성과 접촉저항 특성이 우수하였으며, 원소들간의 확산방지층으로도 우수한 특성을 보였다. ZnO:Al의 수소화는 SIMS 분석 결과 수소원소들이 계면쪽에 위치하지 않고 표면쪽에 다수 존재함으로써 패시베이션 특성을 크게 보이지 않았으나 AZO 박막의 전기적 특성은 크게 향상 시켰다. 그밖에 완충층으로 사용된 Zn 박막은 두께가 두꺼원 질수록 접촉저항의 감소를 가져왔으나 광학적 특성이 크게 감소하면서 효율적인 광포획 특성을 가지지 못하였다. 본 연구를 통하여 TCO/a-Si:H 간의 완충층 삽입을 통해 접촉저항을 낮추고 원소간의 확산을 억제하여 계면 패시베이션 특성을 향상 시킬수 있었다.
