The current study assumes that the net effect of rewards on creativity is determined by interactions of motivational and cognitive properties conveyed by rewards when rewards are actually delivered. To test this hypothesis, experimental research was manipulated with 81 fourth-grade elementary students in Seoul, Korea, consisted of two sessions separated by a one-week interval. Data analyses pointed out that the changes of the creativity performance cannot be explained by the motivational changes and, in general, supported the hypothesis proposed in this study.

The performance characteristics of heating and cooling operation for a heat pump system using seawater heat source and exhaust energy are presented. The heat pump system is made of a waste heat recovery system and a vapor compression refrigeration system. The working fluid is R-22. The heat pump system COPs are measured during heating and cooling operation modes, and the resultant COPs were 9.7 and 7.9, respectively, which are three times higher than those of the heat pump itself. Therefore, the performance of the heat pump system using exhaust energy is excellent compared to that of a general heat pump. The experimental data can be effectively used for the design of the high efficient heat pump using a seawater heat source.

In general, nuclear power plant concrete structure's performance has been very good with the majority of identified problems initiating during construction and corrected at that time. This study is experiments to improve drying shrinkage using glycol ether-based material for the durability of nuclear power plants. Thus, this study evaluated the obtained data from a mock up test for the practical use of concrete containing glycol ether. According to the results of this study, the concrete showed resistance performance of around 40% to drying shrinkage.

The objective of this paper is to define local optimization algorithms (LOA) to solve Resource-Constrained Project Scheduling Problem (RCPSP) and analyze the performance of these algorithms. By representing solutions with activity list, three primitive LOAs, i.e. forward and backward improvement-based, exchange-based, and relocation-based LOAs are defined. Also, combined LOAs integrating two primitive LOAs are developed. From the experiments with standard test set J120 generated using ProGen, the FBI-based LOA demonstrates to be an efficient algorithm. Moreover, algorithms combined with FBI-based LOA and other LOA generate good solutions in general. Among the considered algorithms, the combined algorithm of FBI-based and exchangebased shows best performance in terms of solution quality and computation time.

Many research works for improving a boundary lubrication performance have been executed by using solid lubricants, and been tried to apply an engine lubrication. However those general lubricants like MoS$_2$ or PTFE have not been applied on engines due to the extreme conditions such as very high temperature and pressure by combustion process in a cylinder. A copper nickel alloy fine particle has been introduced and studied. In this Paper the lubricant using the alloy Particles is applied on a marine diesel engine and assessed by the engine performance test The results showed the increase of cylinder pressure related strongly to the engine efficiency as well as the improving the engine lubrication performance.

In general, crankshafts which are used in internal combustion reciprocating engines are subjects to high torsional vibration. Therefore, a damper is often used to minimize the torsional vibration in reciprocating engines. In this paper, in order to investigate damping performance of viscous damper, the real effective viscosity and complex damping coefficient of silicone oil, and the effective inertia moment of inertia ring are calculated considering the relative motion between damper casing and inertia ring. Based on these results multi-cylinder shaft is modeled into equivalent 2-degree of freedom system and optimum condition is estimated by calculating the amplification factor of viscous damper. Also the test damper was manufactured according to the result of theoretical investigation, the performance and durability was ascertained through experimental examination.

LRT System Application Project is performed for the purpose of technical advancement and stabilization of K-AGT system from the viewpoint of practical use and commercialization. For those purpose, the performance test and evaluation procedure for signaling system are developed, and the scheme of verifying the performance and function of signaling system under multi-train and driverless control environment is being conducted. In general, the railway have kept their systems highly safe and reliable through the ongoing efforts over a period of many years. This has been achieved primarily by continuous improvements, which mean that there is a dearth of experience in the introduction of innovative new systems. Therefore it is said that comparing a new system that features a completely new architecture with a conventional one may be difficult. In this paper, we investigate the evaluation method for Radio based-Communication Based Train Control system from case study.

Screw compressor type chillers are widely used in refrigeration for capacity over 30 RT. In general, chillers operate under part-load conditions. Therefore, information on characteristics at part-load is very important in view of chiller performance and energy economy. In this study, performance tests of part-load and economizer system using R22 and R407C have been performed for various secondary fluid temperatures. Adoption of an economizer system increased the cooling capacity and improved COP except for lower part-load condition when injection volume ratio is 1.01. For the same cooling capacity condition at part-load, COP of both non-economizer and economizer system showed similar values.

Objectives This study aimed to identify the differences and the profiles of cognitive deficits in remitted patients with schizophrenia and first-degree relatives of schizophrenic probands. Methods A total of 26 remitted states of schizophrenia patients were included in the study and the same number of unaffected first-degree relatives of schizophrenic probands and healthy controls were matched for age, sex, years of education. Cognitive function of all participants was measured by using the Digit span test, the Continuous performance test, the Rey auditory & visual learning test, the Complex figure test, the Verbal fluency test, the Wisconsin card sorting test and the Finger tapping test. The effects of subsyndromal symptomatology and general intelligence score were controlled. Results Schizophrenia patients' group showed more significant impairment than other groups in verbal memory (learning, immediate recall, delayed recall), visual memory (copy, immediate recall, delayed recall) and cognitive flexibility domains. The family group and the patient group commonly performed significantly worse than healthy controls in working memory and verbal fluency (category) tests. There were no differences in sustained attention, psychomotor performance. Conclusions Our research shows that the deficit in working memory and verbal fluency could be strong candidates of endophenotypic marker in schizophrenia.
