Recently, many patients related to heart disease have surgical operation by expanding a blood vessel to treat the angiostenosis. So far most angioplasties have been performed using balloon-dilative stent made of stainless steel. Some researchers are studying the stent made of shape memory alloy (SMA) to operate the angioplasty more easily. and there are several papers which introduce the angioplasty using SMA. However, most of the analysis models for stents are constructed using solid elements. So much computing time is required to solve the analysis model. In this study, we suggest the SMA stent model using 1D truss element which is much faster than stent model using 3D solid element. To represent non-linear behavior of SMA, we apply 1D SMA constitutive equation of Lagoudas'. Pseudo-elastic behavior of stent structures is presented as a numerical example.

This study investigates the reliability and validity of research instruments used in Korean MIS research. Examination of reliability and validity is a necessary process for establishing proper arguments based on research results. We examined 172 MIS research articles published in four major Korean journals between 1990 and 1999. Among them, 79 papers which used multivariate research methods were analyzed in this study. The relationships between reliability measures and several research design characteristics were examined. We found that scale format and the number of items used to measure a construct were significantly correlated with reliability measure. About 27 percent of the articles we examined did not perform validity analysis. Based on the findings in our study, we proposed a checklist for presenting data validation analysis.

Dynamic characteristics of the bell-type structure including acoustic effects and transient dynamic problems were analyzed numerically. Natural frequencies, mode shapes and transient dynamic analysis used the finite element method with 3-D general shell element. Mode shapes and stress distributions of transient dynamic analysis were expressed by computer graphics. The method using this study was evaluated by comparision of theoretical results at reference papers(14), (15) and the experimental test using Fast Fourier Transform analyzer. Vibrational modes governing acoustic characteristics of the typical bell-type structure depended on the first flexural mode(4-0 mode) and the second flexural mode(6-0 mode). Asymmetric effects by Dangiwas, acoustic holes gave rise to beat frequencies, and the Dangjwa was found to be most effective. When impact load acted on the bell, stress concentration occured at the rim part of bell. It was found that the bell type structure should be designed thickly at the rim part in order to prevent impact load from stress concentration.

The purpose of this study is to investigate the research trend of information user studies. The following findings are made. The literature on information user studies during 1980-1990 reveals 120 titles. The faculty members of university tend to publish their results in scientific journals and university publication while non-faculty members are more likely to represent their research papers in unpublished master thesis and bulletin. Subject distribution of research were classified into ten: user studies, material use studies, information needs and uses, user education, library use pattern, citation analysis, journal use, catalog use, information system, non-use study. Survey research, literature research, survey reserch and literature research use jointly, experimental research and citation analysis were employed for information user studies.

The purpose of this research was to analyze the effects of smart learning. By using meta analysis method, twenty MA and Ph.D degree papers published from 2006 to 2013 were analyzed and 104 effect sizes were calculated. Followings were the results of the research: (a) Smart learning turned out to be more statistically effective comparing to traditional education. The total mean effect size was .886 and the value of U3 was 66.53%. (b) All effect size of sub dependent variables(ie, academic achievement, learning satisfaction, learning attitude) were also effective by adapting smart learning. (c) The moderated variables likes learner characteristics, learning content, and interaction had high effect sizes. Operation system variable had a low effect size but it was not significant.

This paper presents a current perspective on advanced fusion research trends in the construction industry as reflected in the proceedings of International Symposium on Automation and Robotics in Construction (ISARC) which has focused on advanced fusion technology in last decades. The paper reports the results of a 7-year analysis of papers between 2000 and 2006. The analysis focused on such data as research topics of the proceedings. The paper summarizes the data extracted from the paper and uses it to analyze advanced fusion research trends. The research result shows that the top research topics in advanced fusion research areas are construction robots and automation and intelligent construction management. The research also found that research related to advanced fusion technology is increasing throughout the world and topics are changing as current needs change.

Recently, there has been a growing interest in threat hunting presented to overcome the limitations of existing security solutions. Threat hunting is generally recognized as a technique for identifying and eliminating threats that exit inside the system. But, the definition is not clear, so there is confusion in terms with penetration testing, intrusion detection, and incident analysis. Therefore, in this paper, compare and analyze the definitions of threat hunting extracted from reports and papers to clarify their implications and compare with defense techniques.

The construction industry is in the process of changing from the existing labor-intensive production system to a construction automation system using advanced information and communication technologies. Accordingly, in order to identify key research areas and utilization technologies in the field of construction automation, this study collected the latest 17 years (2000-2016) of papers published in International Symposium on Automation and Robotics in Construction (ISARC) and conducted a correlation analysis between the construction management areas and automation technologies based on the keyword frequency. As a result, the BIM, WSN, and Augmented reality were extracted as the technology keywords with high correlation with various areas of construction management.

Purpose: This study aimed to identify research topics in the emergency medical technician (EMT) field and examine research trends. Methods: In this study, 261 research papers published between January 2000 and May 2022 were collected, and EMT research topics and trends were analyzed using topic modeling techniques. This study used a text mining technique and was conducted using data collection flow, keyword preprocessing, and analysis. Keyword preprocessing and data analysis were done with the RStudio Version 4.0.0 program. Results: Keywords were derived through topic modeling analysis, and eight topics were ultimately identified: patient treatment, various roles, the performance of duties, cardiopulmonary resuscitation, triage systems, job stress, disaster management, and education programs. Conclusion: Based on the research results, it is believed that a study on the development and application of education programs that can successfully increase the emergency care capabilities of EMTs is needed.

The number of studies on e-government has increased rapidly in South Korea while the government has implemented world-class e-government. However, there has been little effort to assess the achievements and limitations of e-government studies up to the present. This article analyzes 146 research papers from 43 academic journals by using the meta-analysis method. Our analysis focuses on the papers' perspectives and topics, methodologies and methods, and use of theories. Comparisons to similar foreign studies are also conducted. Our finding shows that there have been substantial improvements and practical contributions of e-government research, mainly in Public Administration and Information Systems literature. Some recommendations are suggested on ways to strengthen e-government research: a multi-disciplinary approach, the rigor and diversity of research methods, theory building, salience, and plasticity.
