Natural convection heat transfers on inclined flat plates were measured for Grashof numbers of $8.06{\times}10^7$ and $3.45{\times}10^9$ by using a copper sulfate electroplating system. The inclinations of the plates were varied from upward-facing horizontal to downward-facing horizontal. Test results for the downward-facing plate agree well with the existing theory that the Nusselt number can be calculated by replacing gravitational acceleration, g with g $cos{\theta}$ in the heat transfer correlation for the vertical plate. The natural convection flows for the upward-facing plate follow two distinct flow regimes: boundary layer regime and flow separation regime. The copper plating pattern for the upward-facing plates clearly reveals the flow separation points.

This study examined vertical shafts in high-rise apartments of the old high-rise buildings, reviewed the possibility of using flue ducts, and analyzed airflow patterns according to pressure differences between in and out side of flue ducts through computational fluid dynamics(CFD). The resulting conclusions are as follows: 1) The analysis results of airflow according to the stack effect of flue ducts show that smaller-diameter flue ducts(${\phi}1.2m$) would be morefavorable in increasing downward wind velocity than bigger-diameter ones(${\phi}1.6m$) and that the introduction ducts for outside air should be more than 50% of flue duct diameter to obtain a downward wind velocity higher than $3.0^m/s$ that is the minimum blade wind velocity of a small domestic wind generator. 2) The optimal installation location of a bypass introduction duct is the neutral plane of a flue duct or lower. When the diameter of the upper duct is bigger than that of the lower duct, it will generate more effects on the increase of downward wind velocity in flue ducts.

Background: Scapular downward rotation syndrome (SDRS) is a common scapular alignment impairment that causes insufficient upward rotation and muscle imbalance, shortened levator scapulae (LS) and rhomboid, and lengthened serratus anterior (SA) and trapezius. A modified shrug exercise (MSE), performing a shrug exercise with the shoulders at $150^{\circ}$ abduction, is known as an effective exercise to increase scapular stabilizer muscle activation. Previous studies revealed that scapular exercise are more effective when combined with trunk stabilization exercises in decreasing scapular winging and increasing scapular stabilizer muscle activation. Objects: The purpose of our study was to clarify the effect of MSE with or without trunk stabilization exercises in subjects with SDRS. Methods: Eighteen volunteer subjects (male=10, female=8) with SDRS were recruited for this experiment. All subjects performed MSE under 3 different conditions: (1) MSE, (2) MSE with an abdominal draw-in maneuver (ADIM), and (3) MSE with an abdominal expansion maneuver (AEM). The muscle thickness of the lower trapezius (LT) and the SA were measured using an ultrasonography in each condition. Electromyography (EMG) data were collected from the LT, LS, SA, and upper trapezius (UT) muscle activities. Data were statistically analysed using one-way repeated analysis of variance at a significance level of .05. Results: The muscle thickness of the LT and the SA were the significant different in the MSE, MSE with ADIM (MSE+ADIM) and MSE with AEM (MSE+AEM) conditions (p<.05) In both LT and SA, the order of thick muscle thickness was MSE+AEM, MSE+ADIM, and MSE alone. No significant differences were found in the EMG activities of the SA, UT, LS, and LT in all condition. Conclusion: In conclusion, MSE is more beneficial to people with SDRS when combined with trunk stabilization exercises by increased thickness of scapular stabilizer muscles.

Any object located in the earth's gravitational field experiences a force in the direction of the center of the earth. In order to describe the motion of objects in the field, the solutions to a system of simultaneous vector kinematic equations need to be obtained. In the analysis of freely-falling objects, the reference direction +y is usually defined to be the downward direction. In the analysis of the motion of objects thrown upward, the reference direction +y is usually defined to be the upward direction. In the analysis of the motion of objects thrown downward, the reference direction +y is usually defined to be the downward direction. In this paper, we show that the choice of reference axis in either upward or direction gives the same results by adopting a scalar product of two vectors in solving the vector kinematic equations. It is rare to find other examples of using a scalar product of two vectors in solving vector kinematic equations describing the motion of objects. An application of this study is that we can arbitrarily choose the reference direction for objects moving in a horizontal direction, including projectile motions.

We applied a slope-stability analysis method, considering infiltration by rainfall, to the construction site where an express highway is being extended. Slope stability analysis that considers infiltration by rainfall can be classified into three methods: a method that considers the downward velocity of the wetting front, a method that considers the upward velocity of the groundwater level, and a method that considers both of these factors. The results of slope stability analysis using $Bishop^{\circ}{\Phi}s$ simplified method indicate that the safety factor due to the downward velocity of the wetting front decreases more rapidly than that due to the upward velocity of the groundwater level. For the third of the above methods, the safety factor decreases more rapidly than for the other two methods. Therefore, slope stability during rainfall should be analyzed with consideration of both the downward velocity of the wetting front and the upward velocity of the groundwater level.

In this paper, we propose an electrically tilting system based on a null-steering in order to solve the problem of the shadowing loss caused by the mechanically tilted antenna system in mobile services. Especially, we improve the downward shadowing loss by eliminating or moving the vertical beampattern nulls between $-30^{\circ}{\sim}0^{\circ}$ to be able to tilt the downward beampattern between $-10^{\circ}{\sim}0^{\circ}$. The antenna has 14.5 dBi gain and side lobe level (SLL) is lower than -18 dB within downward tilting range. The isolation of polarization is greater than 30 dB when running in electric tilt down to $-10^{\circ}$. To verify this paper, we made the base-station antenna for W-CDMA and beam tilting devices, and verified the performances.

The purpose of this study was to provide basic information for developing effective marketing strategies of nursing organization by identifying the influence of internal marketing factors on the nurses' organizational commitment. The subjects of this study were 256 nurses who were working in the hospital over 1 year at three university hospitals which had more than 400 beds in seoul and kyung-gido. The data were collected by self-reporting questionnaires. The instruments used in this study were the communication form scale developed by Jo(1995), the welfare scale developed by researcher, the education training scale developed by researcher, the organizational commitment scale developed by Mowday, Porter and Steers(1979). The data were analysed by the SAS package using frequency, percentage, mean, standard deviation, Pearson's correlation coefficient and stepwise multiple regression. The results of this study were as follows; 1. In mean score of internal marketing factors in nursing organization, horizontal communication was 3.42, downward communication 3.32, involvement communication 3.08, upward communication 3.00, education training 2.54, welfare 2.51. The meas score of organizational commitment was 3.00. 2. Organizational commitment was positively correlated with upward communication(r=0.48, p=0.0001), education training(r=0.42, p=0.0001), horizontal communication(r=0.36, p=0.0001), welfare(r=0.34, p=0.0001), involvement communication(r=0.25, p=0.0001) of internal marketing factors in nursing organization, but was negatively correlated with downward communication(r=-0.20, p=0.0014). 3. The major internal marketing factors which influence organizational commitment was upward communication. Upward communication explained 23% of organizational commitment. If education training, horizontal communication, welfare and downward communication were added, 38% of the variance would be explained. In conclusion, the results of this study showed that the higher upward communication level among the internal marketing factors was doing more important role in nurses' organizational commitment. Therefore, for improvement of nurses' organizational commitment, it is important to improve upward communication and to develop the education training program among the internal marketing factors.

In "Lingshu Benshen". five vicera are damaged due to changes in emotion having qi flow opposite to five viscera. As a result, it suggests that mental and physical illness could develop. The content of this piece can be explained in relation to five elements but uniformly through qi's flow. The contents can be summarized as follows. 1. The Heart is fire among the five elements and mainly characterized with dispersing. The flow of its qi is characterized facing upward and outward. On the other hand, being afraid or thinking seriously is characterized by making qi to go downward and stop so that the flow of qi is mainly facing toward inward and downward, damaging the heart. 2. The spleen has the conveyance function and spreads qi. On the other hand, worry and emotion inhibit qi function, blocking qi, damaging the spleen. 3. The liver has dispelling and removing functions and the power of sending up. The qi flow goes toward upward and outward. On the other hand, sadness stagnates qi, preventing the flow of liver's qi, damaging the liver. As a result, work is not done accurately. Madness develops with heat accumulated with qi stagnation. When qi is not sending up, mentality is not clear, leading to forgetfulness. 4. The lung has astringent and sending down functions, lowering qi. On the other hand, happy and joyful emotions bring up qi, showing the opposite flow of qi compared with the lung, damaging the lung. 5. The kidney has closing and storing functions, making qi flow to downward and inward. On the other hand, being angry makes qi to go up. Excessive expression of anger damages the kidney. As a result, the yin function of kidney does not work properly, leading to forgetfulness.
