  • This paper examines "Difference in Requests." The study of speech acts is a crucial area in sociolinguistics and ethnolinguistics, and has aided in the development of TESOL. It also provides a useful means of relating linguistic form and communicative intent. This paper concentrated on 3 request strategies, which were requests made with an explanation, requests made without an explanation and no requests. The purpose of this study, and of concern in TESOL, was to discover whether Koreans framed their requests differently under different conditions. Based on these differences, I wanted to ascertain whether Koreans who spoke English as a second language, and who have lived in the United States, frame their requests as they would in their native tongues thus creating the potential for sociolinguistic failure, or use American sociolinguistic style. As the results of the study, it was found that in the majority of cases, Americans made an explanation with a request. In many cases the Koreans living in Korea would not give an explanation when making a request. Rather, they were direct in request. In many cases the Korean speaking English and living in the US had adopted the American request strategy of giving an explanation.

  • This paper presents a new method for generating smooth free-form surface by local correction. B-spline surface is used for its convenience of local correction, and the direction of surface correction is fixed to the average-surface-normal direction. The surface to be corrected is approximated into a uniform cubic B-spline surface. Then, the smoothness (curvature arrows, iso-parametric lines) of the approximated surface is displayed with B-spline control points. When a control point near the region that needs correction is selected, a new point 1 mm higher than the original control point in the direction of the average surface normal is displayed. And the surface is corrected by giving the amount of control point movement interactively. Since the direction of correction is given by the program and the amount of correction is selected by the user, the method is called semiautomatic. sufficiently smooth surface can be obtained by this method. Examples are given to illustrate the method.

  • For most of the measuring methods of traditional control theory, measuring equipments are located at the output of the system to measure quantities transformed from non-electrical form into electrical one. This method helps us to define the value of parameters to be measured, but it has limitation because it can only assess the efficiency of a movement process. That means we can not understand the inner kinetics which is the essence of the system. In the modern control theory, states of system are considered as the feedback to the control process, which helps us to assess the elements in the inside of the system. In this paper, we survey methods for estimating states being not exposed to the correct measurements. Using this method, we also suggest an application for giving an estimate of the traffic on the LSPs to adapt the network configuration for changing traffic conditions.

  • We present a scheme for monolithically integrating aligned arrays of single walled carbon nanotubes (SWNTs) with sheets of graphene, for use in electronic devices. Here, the graphene and arrays of SWNTs are formed separately, using chemical vapor deposition techniques onto different, optimized growth substrates. Techniques of transfer printing provide a route to integration, yielding two terminal devices and transistors in which patterned structures of graphene form the electrodes and the SWNTs arrays serve as the semiconductor. Electrical testing and analysis reveal the properties of optically transparent transistors that use this design, thereby giving insights into the nature of contacts between graphene and SWNTs.

  • The purpose of this paper is to make sure of identity as a paradigm of new fsahion to introduce the concept of Sumulacres by J. Baudrillard, For converting to new aesthetic value. To do this, we started observing the general concept of Simulacres, and examined Cyberpunk within thinking of Simulacres and Cyberpunk fashion at virtual space, and then divided aesthetic consciousness appeared at Cyberpunk fashion centering on the concept of Simulacres into inwards sense and outwards sense. Cyberpunk is understood to be one of tendency in the cyber cultures controlled by computer and electronic technology. It is not yet defined clearly and therefore ambiguous and still being elaborated. However, the form started changing our sense sinking into overall cultures in the World, including even movie, literature, music and fashion, and giving complex, deep cultural and artistic possibilities. Also, as a subculture, Cyberpunk is building its own cultural territory in cyber space and is experiencing more real Simulacres than that of it in the ordinary life.

  • This paper presents an efficient and accurate method for nonlinear analysis of frame structures by idealized structural unit method. The main idea behind the present method is to minimize the cost of the computational effort by reducing the number of unknowns. An explicit form of the tangential elastic stiffness matrix of the element is derived by using updated Lagrangian approach. An ultimate limit state of the element is judged on the basis of the formation of a plastic hinge mechanism. The elasto-plastic stiffness matrix and the post-ultimate stiffness matrix of the element are formulated by plastic node method. A comparison between the present method is very efficient and accurate because the computing time required is very small while giving the accurate solution.

  • As a step preliminary to the factor-analysis of a child-rearing attitude scale under construction, its preliminary form containing a total of 368 self-answered questions was administerd to 88 married women with one or more children in the grade school age. all graduates of colleges and in possession of a home telephone and a house, twice from one week apart. The test-retest correlation coefficients, calculated for each test item based on the subject's choice among the three response alternatives on two test ocasions, ranged from .80 to .10. The cut-off point of r=.41 or lower led to the elimination of 48 items. As a point of incidental interest, the rate of response concordance. The namber of subjects giving the same categroy response on two occasions was calculated for each item and it was correlated with its test. retest correlation coefficient. The two different indices of item test-retest reliability were found not related to each other. Empirical evidence, as well as rational justifications, was presented to show that the correlation coefficient is the better of the tow indices of item test-retest reliability.

  • Image of Modern Art & Fashion are created on the whole in daily life. Image itself is not simple. There is no more distinction between content & form through mutual crossing for intellectual thinking. Specially, image of reproduction circumstance too many mixtual and compromise (collage) are continued to occur. They could pursuit to change their image through the more increase of impulse, exception and popular experience. In this thesis, I studied about image of Modern fashion & Art. In the modern art, visual image showed as anti-beauty and combination of cultural system. It has shown in the theory of Fred Davis and through fashion brand advertising image as follows; Youth vs maturity (ageless image), male s female and androgynous vs unisexuality (genderless image), colligation vs monopoly (street mode image). As a results, the modern trend image are showing the value of the ambivalence. It can be said that he anti-beauty which are occasionally showed in ambivalence has shown a tendency toward another tradition (feminity) through giving an impulse and paradox.

  • This paper resents frequency distribution of annual maxima of daily rainfall, temperature and pressure at twelve major meteorological stations in South Korea based on avaliable series of annual maxima. As a first step a traditional way of estimating the probabilities of extremes using Jenkinson's method was used here. The results are presented in the form of graph giving the various recurrence periods of rainfall, temperature and pressure and the frequency distributions obtained are discussed.

  • Giving teachers and students the clean visual environment, the classroom lighting is an important part that prevents the decrease of the visual acuity and improves the studying environment. In order to improve the classroom lighting, a proper blackboard luminaire is to be developed. This paper explains how to design the optical form of the high efficient reflector which offers the uniform illuminance at the vertical surface of the blackboard and, after all, the problem of a large source in reflector design process is explained.
