  • This paper examined seemingly well-working compromises in identity construction, questioning whether the compromises could function only nominally in practice. The literature has paid attention to the conflicts which end up functionally sense-making, through either unilaterally enforced or mutually assimilated compromises. In contrast, this paper's analysis of Super Tuscan wines under the Italian government's quality regulation illustrated that the compromises between wineries and classification systems do not work well and make the classification systems meaningless in the end. This study thus argued that compromises in identity construction do not always result in functionally sense-making outcomes: they could be only nominal. This study suggested that idiosyncratic institutional contexts, such as weak organizational legacy, affect the results of identity construction in functional terms. At last, the theoretical and practical implications both in organization and management of this study were well discussed.

  • Blanking is one of the most frequently used processes in sheet metal forming. In this paper, attention is paid to the blanking simulation of aluminium foil with $20{\mu}m$ thickness which is used an anode in lithium-ion polymer battery. In order to study the shearing mechanism for the metallic foil, finite element analysis with Crockroft and Latham fracture criterion was performed. The objective of the present work is to evolve a methodology to obtain the optimum punch-die clearance for a given aluminium foil by the simulation of the blanking process using a general purpose FEM code.

  • Objective : This Study aims to survey the current situation of the 'Future Leaders of Korean Medicine' curriculum and thereby improve the quality of the curriculum. Methods : 10 students in the curriculum answered 3 items of the NSSE questionnaires; 'Active and Collaborative Learning', 'Student-Faculty Interaction', 'Satisfaction'. Results : 'Worked with other students on projects', 'Tutored or taught other students (paid or voluntary)' average frequencies are relatively low in the 'Active and Collaborative Learning' item. 'Worked with faculty members on activities other than course-work' average frequency is relatively low in the 'Student-Faculty Interaction' item. Conclusions : The curriculum should be improved to encourage the students to take the leading roles at Collaborative Learning and to interact with the advisors.

  • Motions of an unsymmetric rigid body on a rigid floor subjected to earthquake excitations with special attention to coefficient of friction are investigated. Motions of a body in a plane are classified (Ishiyama 1980) into six types, i.e. (1) rest, (2) slide, (3) rotation, (4) slide rotation, (5) translation jump, (6) rotation jump. Based upon the theoretical and experimental research work special attention is paid to the sliding of a body. The equations of motions and the behavior of coefficient of friction in the time of floor excitation are studied. One of the features of this investigation is the introduction and estimation of the "time dependent" coefficient of friction. It has been established that the constant kinetic coefficient of friction $${\mu}(kin){\sim_\sim}0.8{\mu}(stat)$$ does not give the appropriate results. The method for the estimation of the friction coefficient variation during the time is given.

  • While there is growing evidence regarding the subgroup-sensitive nature of risk factors among delinquent adolescents, researchers have paid little attention to the tracking of risks and needs by subgroups (e.g., gender, ethnicity, and the timing of onset for delinquency) among youth who are currently involved in the juvenile court system. Therefore, greater empirical attention directed toward subgroup-sensitive risk factors experienced by delinquent adolescents is thought to be both timely and necessary. A final convenience sample of 2167 court-involved adolescents in the US was used to specify subgroup-sensitive risks and needs. The results demonstrated that there were various levels of risks according to subgroups associated with gender, ethnicity, and onset for delinquency group. The findings of this study add to the extant literature on delinquency by demonstrating the importance of considering subgroups associated with gender, ethnicity, and the timing of onset for delinquency when practicing treatment or intervention programs with delinquent adolescents.

  • Almost all companies have paid much attention to the safety management ranging from maintenance to operation even at the stage of designing in order to prevent accidents, but fatal accidents continue to increase throughout the world. In particular, it is essential to systematically prevent such fatal accidents sa fire, explosion or leakage of toxic gas at factories in order to not only protect economic losses and environmental pollution. In addition, HRA may be used to detect the human errors which may cause accidents or trace back to any mistake on the part of workers. This work focuses on the coincidence of human error and mechanical failure for management of human error, and on some important performance shaping factors to propose a method for improving safety effectively of the process industries.

  • In recent years, shipboard noise control is attracting increasing attention to human environmental conditions and crew's opportunity for rest and recreation with work on board. In order to minimize the noise levels, careful attention have to be paid by the experts from initial design stage to the delivery. This paper describes the outlines of shipboard noise control including general characteristics of shipboard noise, measurement, evaluation, prediction, and control measures considering the noise transmission mechanism from source to receiver space.

  • Almost all companies have paid much attention to the safety management ranging from maintenance to operation even at the stage of designing in order to prevent accidents, but fatal accidents continue to increase throughout the world. In particular, it is essential to systematically prevent such fatal accidents as fire, explosion or leakage of toxic gas at factories in order to not only protect the workers and neighbors but also prevent economic losses and environmental pollution. In addition, HRA may be used to detect the human errors which may cause accidents or trace back to any mistake on the part of workers. Usually, HRA technique is used in association with other risk assessment techniques. Moreover, it can serve to enumerate the human errors which may occur during operation or down-time or correct the existing system to reduce the mistakes. This work focuses on the coincidence of human error and mechanical failure for management of human error, and on some important performance shaping factors to propose a method for improving safety effectively of the process industries.

  • The purpose of this study was to compare the performance mode of housework related to daily meals. The data for 214 Korean couples living in Seoul and 136 Japanese Couples in Tokyo were collected using structured questionnaires and time diaries. The performance mode of housework were analyzed according to the employment status of wives. The results were as follows; Generally Koreans and Japanese wives had similar patterns in the time use of meals preparation and dish washing. In both nations Husbands seldom participated meals preparation, wives did most part of the work. But Japanese husbands of full-time employed wives spent more time on meals preparation than their Korean counterparts did. Korean wives received more help from other family members and paid labor, on the contrary Japanese wives purchased more ready-made goods for food preparation.

  • In this study, we tried to validate FLUENT solver model and domain setting for the problem of convective heat transfer in multiple tube bank under transitional zone. We have paid special attention to verify proper boundary conditions and the grid convergence. Through validation work, it is found that unsteady solution method with two-dimensional simulation domain can produce reasonable accurate results compared with existing experimental data. Simulation results with steady solution generates relatively large error. We found that both steady and unsteady method for three-dimensional domain shows acceptable accuracy. Further parametric study for deriving correlation from transverse and longitudinal pitch is currently underway.
