The work of design needs not only a lot of scientific information, but also a artistic sensitivity. Designers require abundant imagination to translate the information of the design, into the Gestaltung. Particularly, the translation of ergonomic information into the elements and grammar of the Gestaltung needs an interface. In order to consider the theoretical possibility for this, a view of fundamental notions, the function of design semantics and ergonomic problems in the design process were analyzed. The purpose of this study is the exploration and relevance of the theoretical model for human factors and design semantics, to see if they could be harmonized as a system of a new design method.

OSHA(Occupational Safety and Health Act) generally regulates employer's business principles in the workplace to maintain safety environment. This act has the fundamental purpose to protect employee's safety and health in the workplace by reducing industrial accidents. Authors tried to investigate the correlation between 'occupational injuries and illnesses' and level of regulation compliance using Survey on Current Status of Occupational Safety & Health data by the various statistical methods, such as generalized regression analysis, logistic regression analysis and poison regression analysis in order to compare the results of those methods. The results have shown that the significant affecting compliance factors were different among those statistical methods. This means that specific interpretation should be considered based on each statistical method. In the future, relevant statistical technique will be developed considering the distribution type of occupational injuries.

PURPOSES : The purpose of this paper is to investigate the application of thermoelectric technology to concrete structures for harvesting solar energy that would otherwise be wasted. In various fields of research, thermoelectric technology using a thermoelectric module is being investigated for utilizing solar energy. METHODS: In our experiment, a halogen lamp was used to produce heat energy instead of the solar heat. A data logger was used to record the generated voltage over time from the thermoelectric module mounted on a concrete specimen. In order to increase the efficiency of energy harvesting, various factors such as color, architecture, and the ability to prevent heat absorption by the concrete surface were investigated for the placement of the thermoelectric module. RESULTS : The thermoelectric module produced a voltage using the temperature difference between the lower and upper sides of the module. When the concrete specimen was coated with an aluminum foil, a high electric power was measured. In addition, for the power generated at low temperatures, it was confirmed that the voltage was generated steadily. CONCLUSIONS: Thermoelectric technology for energy harvesting can be applied to concrete structures for generating electric power. The generated electricity can be used to power sensors used in structure monitoring in the future.

A bibliographical review of Gy sampling theory for particulate materials was conducted to provide readers with useful means to reduce errors in soil contamination investigation. According to the Gy theory, the errors caused by the heterogeneous nature of soil include; the fundamental error (FE) caused by physical and chemical constitutional heterogeneity, the grouping and segregation error (GE) aroused from gravitational force, long-range heterogeneous fluctuation error ($CE_2$), the periodic heterogeneity fluctuation error ($CE_3$), and the materialization error (ME) generated during physical process of sample treatment. However, the accurate estimation of $CE_2$ and $CE_3$ cannot be estimated easily and only increasing sampling locations can reduce the magnitude of the errors. In addition, incremental sampling is the only method to reduce GE while grab sampling should be avoided as it introduces uncertainty and errors to the sampling process. Correct preparation and operation of sampling tools are important factors in reducing the incremental delimitation error (DE) and extraction error (EE) which are resulted from physical processes in the sampling. Therefore, Gy sampling theory can be used efficiently in planning a strategy for soil investigations of non-volatile and non-reactive samples.

This paper is concerned with the precision material property measurement of a micro metal thin foil that is used in MEMS technology. Since these MEMS components require great precision and accuracy, evaluation of reliability such as the lift cycle endurance test, impact test, and residual stress test is necessary for these components. However, in practice, real reliability tests are not easy to perform due to consideration of various factors. Rather than actual testing, it would be much easier to evaluate the reliability of components by the analytical approach. Although the analytical method is utilized by software tools, it is obviously necessary to acquire fundamental properties of materials through real test methods. In this paper, the oriented mechanical properties of aluminum thin foil are measured by nano scale material property measurement system.

The followings are the conclusions drawn from the clinical cases of apoplexy; The main cause of apoplexy is the deficiency of both Jung and Ki. dam typed persons are stricken with paralyses because of the insufficiency of the kidney water. On the other hand, bangkwang typed persons' apoplexy comes from the deficiency of Ki and dump-phlegm. The prevention of apoplexy is very important so that porpe medical care should be taken at the appearance of premonitory symptoms like vertigo, dim sight tinnitus, stiff neck, numbness and others. It appears very reasonable both clinically and pathologically that Li dongyuen classified the apoplexy in to three groups : the first group is apoplexy involving meridians ; the second. involving Bu ; the third, involving Jang. The accurate diagnosis of apoplexy regulates com prehension consideration of four factors configuration color, pulse and symptoms and distinction from the similar diseases. Apoplexy is the up wand floating of Yaug in deficiency due to the deficiency of genuine Yim. In its early stages it should be treated by eliminating the excess in the upper pant. In the lower pant becomes the fundamental treatment.

The threshing action of the head-fed type threshing unit occurs mainly by the impact between threshing tooth and grains. It may be therefore the most fundamental step to calculate the time and order of the occurrance of impact by the tooth for predicting the performance of threshing unit. The threshing teeth arrangement was defined by length and diameter of threshing dram, number of spiral arrays, number of threshing teeth by kind per one spiral array, number of windings of spiral array around the threshing drum, delay angle of impact line. The linear equations for locus of left and right margin of paddy bundle, spiral array, impact line on the development figure of the threshing drum were expressed by fastors of the threshing teeth arrangement. In the computer program, the teeth which inflict impact were searched successively along the impact line. Searching range and impact condition were defined by the relation between four linear equations. If the impacting tooth was found, time and the kind of threshing tooth was derived from the coordinate of the threshing tooth. At this time the unit torque curve was accumulated on the array of computer memory. At last the completed torque curve of threshing drum shaft was described on the computer screen. Remarkably the peack valae and fluctuation of torque curve was decreased by adopting the delay angle of impact line.

Anodic oxidation treatment of metals is one of typical surface finishing methods which has been used for improving surface appearance, bioactivity, adhesion with paints and the resistances to corrosion and/or abrasion. This article provides fundamental principle, type and characteristics of the anodic oxidation treatment methods, including anodizing method and plasma electrolytic oxidation (PEO) method. The anodic oxidation can form thick oxide films on the metal surface by electrochemical reactions under the application of electric current and voltage between the working electrode and auxiliary electrode. The anodic oxide films are classified into two types of barrier type and porous type. The porous anodic oxide films include a porous anodizing film containing regular pores, nanotubes and PEO films containing irregular pores with different sizes and shapes. Thickness and defect density of the anodic oxide films are important factors which affect the corrosion resistance of metals. The anodic oxide film thickness is limited by how fast ions can migrate through the anodic oxide film. Defect density in the anodic oxide film is dependent upon alloying elements and second-phase particles in the alloys. In this article, the principle and mechanisms of formation and growth of anodic oxide films on metals are described.
