An influence of inlet pressure on the performance of sector-shaped pad thrust bearings is investigated theoretically. The optimum conditions of film thickness or the optimum positions of pivot are found through the evaluation of load capacity for all available conditions of film thickness, under the operating conditions which the thermal and pad deformation effects can be neglected. The bearing performance including the inlet pressure effects is obtained for a wide operating ranges that inertia parameter(Re$^{*}$) is up to unity, and for the various cases of pad extent angle (number of pad) and the three cases of the angle between pads. The results show that the inlet pressure has a large influence on the performance of sector-shaped pad thrust bearings. In the design of sector-shaped pad bearings, due to the inlet pressure, the optimum number of pad is varied with the operating speed and the angle between pads, and the optimum position of pivot is located toward the leading edge along with the operating speed increases.

본 논문은 평면형 구조를 갖는 원형 부채꼴 모양의 전력 분배기-결합기 설계에 대한 것이다. 이 구조는 직렬형으로 구성할 수 있으며 원형 부채꼴 모양으로 인하여 간단한 회로 구성과 출력의 크기와 위상 발란스 특성을 개선할 수 있으며, 이것은 단순한 입력 정합회로를 갖고 있으며 출력 포트 사이에 RC 병렬 회로를 삽입하여 출력의 반사계수와 고립도를 개선하였다. 설계된 분배기와 결합기는 구조적으로 부채꼴 모양의 대칭적으로 설계되었기 때문에 출력 포트를 2개 또는 4개로 구성하였을 때 출력 사이의 크기 발란스 ± 0.1 dB 와 위상 발란스 ± 1o를 갖는 우수한 특성을 갖고 있다. 이러한 전기적 특성을 확인하기 위해서 동작주파수 2 GHz에서 제작된 평면형 전력 분배기-결합기는 시뮬레이션과 특성이 잘 일치함을 확인하였다.

Purpose - In this study, we explore the relationship between the degree of internationalization (DOI) and firm performance (DOI-P) of small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) in the manufacturing sector. Specifically, we investigate whether the costs and benefits dynamics concerning the internationalization of SMEs differ between high-tech and non-high-tech industries. Design/methodology - We extend the prior literature on this relationship by employing 5-year data on 589 Korean SMEs in the manufacturing sector and examining the moderating impact of the industry characteristics. Our findings reveal a U-shaped relationship between the DOI and SME performance. High-tech SMEs demonstrate an inverted U-shaped relationship, whereas non-hightech SMEs exhibit a U-shaped relationship. Findings - Our findings illustrate the importance of the industry factor in testing the performance impact of the internationalization of Korean SMEs. By incorporating industry dynamics, our results indicate that the DOI-P relationship depends on the context of the industry in which an SME operates. High-tech SMEs also display a higher DOI but are outperformed by non-high-tech SMEs for the entire internationalization path, which implies that high-tech SMEs face more challenges than non-high-tech SMEs while seeking internationalization. Originality/value - The findings strongly validate that significant benefits exist for SMEs undertaking internationalization. We also employ the contextual framework contributing to increasing the understanding of the intrinsic value of internationalization and resolving the mixed results issue on the DOI-P relationship, by illustrating that the industry factor leads to different dynamics of costs and benefits of SME internationalization; it also determines the shape and direction of the relationship.

This paper describes a new pivoting technique to improve bearing performance in pivoted pad thrust bearings. This new technique adjusts the pivot line in a line pivoted pad thrust bearing to be parallel to the trailing edge of a sector shaped pad. Bearing performance factors such as load carrying capacity, frictional torque and flow rate are numerically investigated for conventional point-pivoted and line-pivoted pads and for the new parallel-line pivoting technique. It is shown that the load carving capacity can be maximized with the new technique.

The purpose of this study is to explore institutional frameworks to professionalize housing management in Korea. In particular, this research reviews the evolution of professional housing management and its institutional measures in a social constructionist perspective. The main method employed in the study is content analysis in which historical pathways in institutionalization of professional housing management are examined and a wide array of indices from secondary data are drawn out in relation to various actors. The findings show that a series of institutional measures were taken from 1970s to secure the professionalization of housing management ranging from introduction of housing management bylaws, placement of licensed housing managers, legal requirements of professionally managed housing estates, compulsory operation of long-term reserve funds, formation of residents' association, mandatory establishment of long-range maintenance planning, to standardization of multifamily housing management bylaws. Since the Multifamily Housing Management Ordinance of 1979 amended in 1980s, many institutional measures have been legally enforced and shaped contemporary practices of professional housing management such as an association for housing management companies, qualification of on-site housing management agents, national licensing examination for housing managers, an organization for licensed housing mangers, mandatory registration of housing management companies, disclosure of monthly housing management fees, and formalization of public assessment of housing management. In spite of the distinctive marks in the professionalization of housing management, more proactive and competitive approaches to the international professionalization need to be considered.

Adults of Prosimulium kiotoense and Twinnia japonensis were collected and reported from Korea for the first time. Since adult black flies are notorious for morphological homogeneity particularly in female, larval and pupal characters have been mainly used to identify them. Adults of P. kiotoense can be identified by the following combination of characteristics: Adult, wing with radial sector (Rs) branched into R²⁺³ and R⁴⁺⁵; hind leg basitarsus without calcipala; first tarsomere without pedisulcus. Female, claw without basal thumblike lobe; hypogenial valve elongate, convex, heavily sclerotized medially, posterior end touching each other, space between valves rhomboid. Male, claw with basal thumblike lobe; ventral plate keel shaped; gonostylus with 2-3 spinules. Adults and pupa of T. japonensis can be identified by the following combination of characteristics: Adult, antenna with 7 flagellomeres. Female, hypogenial valve broad, posterior end of valve not touching each other; cercus elongate, subquadrate; spermatheca slightly wider and long, round. Male, claw with basal thumblike lobe; gonostylus with 1 spinule; ventral plate flat. Pupa, gill of 16 filaments, arising from 3 swollen stalks; abdominal tergites without spine combs except tergites III and IV with small recurved hooks; terminal spine well developed, wavy shaped.

본 연구에서는 국내 제조업의 기술혁신 패턴을 산업의 기술집약도에 따라 4개 부문-고기술, 중상기술, 중하기술 및 저기술-으로 나누어 살펴보았다. 과학기술정책연구원의 기술혁신조사(KIS 2008) 데이터를 이용한 실증분석 결과, 국내 기술혁신 패턴은 산업의 기술 수준이 높고 낮음에 관계없이 모든 산업부문에서 Pavitt의 과학기반형 특성을 나타내는 것으로 확인되었다. 이러한 결과는 고기술산업과 저기술산업의 기술혁신 패턴이 각각 Pavitt의 과학기반형(science-based)과 공급자주도형(supplier-dominated)으로 뚜렷하게 구분되는 해외 연구결과와는 차이를 나타낸다. 이는 국내 기술혁신활동이 해당 산업의 기술수준이나 특성을 제대로 반영하지 못한 채 고기술산업을 기준으로 획일화되어 있음을 보여주는 것이다. 향후 각 산업의 기술수준이나 특성을 반영하는 효과적인 기술 혁신정책 수립을 위해서는 국내 기술혁신 패턴이 이러한 양상을 나타내는 원인과 그것이 혁신성과에 미치는 영향에 대한 추가적인 연구가 필요하다 하겠다.

Fire sprinkler initial spray was analyzed by Large eddy simulation (LES) and Volume of Fluid (VoF) integrated method. The IsoAdvector geometric VoF was used to identify the liquid-gas interface clearly even with the large Courant-Friedrichs-Lewy number. To reduce the computational costs, sector meshes and Adaptive Mesh Refinement up to level 3 were used. Base mesh size was 1 mm, which is roughly equivalent to the initial sprinkler droplet. Top surface radius of boss and deflector size were modified to investigate the effects of sprinkler head design on primary breakup process. When top surface radius of boss was increased, vertical liquid sheet was formed. This phenomenon reduced the sheet breakup radius, sheet thickness and velocity. Due to reduced liquid sheet thickness, a large amount of ligaments was created from the liquid sheet. As a result, there was a dramatic decrease in volume per surface area, indicating an increase in breakup process. Spray pattern viewed in radial direction also changed when top surface radius of boss increased. When top surface radius of boss was increased, a T-shaped pattern was observed while a V-shaped pattern was observed in all other cases. When the deflector size increases, the spray pattern remains V-shaped, even if the top surface radius of boss increased. Further studies on promoting atomization of the water supplied to the lower part of the sprinkler head in the T-shape pattern should be conducted.

Effects of the ram-pressure on the THD-performance of pivoted pad thrust bearings are investigated experimentally. A sector-shaped tilting pad thrust bearing and a rotating disk are used. Temperature distribution on the disk surface as well as on the pad surface, distribution of the pressure generated within the fluid film, and the film thickness are measured continuously in the circumferential direction after thermal equilibrium is established. The ram-pressure is proportional to the mean pressure of oil film and to the rotational speed of the disk and affects the maximum pressure and the pressure distribution. The temperature rise on the mating surface of the disc and the pad, contacting with the oil film, is proportional to to the bearing load and the disk speed. The ram-pressure and the temperature rise on the disk surface are dominant factors that affect the THD-performance of pivoted pad thrust bearings.
