Objectives: This study aimed to measure the knowledge of dental hygienists regarding dental waste, and identify the relationship between general characteristics and infection control characteristics. Methods: This study was conducted using a self-reported questionnaire in 250 dental hygienists. The questionnaire consisted of 21 items: storage container (5 items), storage locations (5 items), storage period (9 items), and storage method (3 items). The collected data were analyzed using the t-test and analysis of variance. Results: The education experience of infection management within the last year was reviewed for significant differences among dental hygienists regarding storage container and storage periods (p<0.05). Statistically significant differences were observed regarding the knowledge of storage container, storage locations, storage period, and storage method among the enrolled dental hygienists (p<0.05). Conclusions: This study examined the necessity of developing conservative education and job education programs to improve the knowledge level of dental hygienists regarding dental waste management.

This paper dealt with thermal storage efficiency due to difference ($T_{\infty}-Ti$) between the mean temperature of water in the storage tank [$0.5m{\times}0.5m{\times}1.0m$] and the temperature of water flowing into the tank, flow rate of water flowing into the tank and shape of porous manifold which water flow into the tank through. As results of experiments; (1) When the flow rate was constant and the diameter of porous section decreased by 8mm, 6mm, and 4mm, the thermal storage efficiency increased. (2) When the diameter of porous section was constant and the difference ($T_{\infty}-Ti$) between the mean temperature of water in the storage tank and the temperature of water flowing into the tank increased by -30, -20, -10, 5, 10, 15 ($^{\circ}C$), the thermal storage efficiency increased. (3) When the($T_{\infty}-Ti$) was constant and the flow rate decreased by 0.8, 0.4, 0.25(LPM), the thermal storage efficiency increased. (4) When the shape of porous section was rigid, the thermal storage efficiency was the most effective, and with establishing flexible porous section or mesh, the effective thermal storage efficiency was obtained.

The present work was performed to axially and radially investigate the local cold storage performance in the cylindrical tank with the spherical capsules inserted n-Tetradecane as a new cold storage material. The local cold storage performance of the capsules in the tank was experimentally investigated for the inlet temperature of -7, -5, -3, 0.deg. C, for the flow rate of 0.95, 1.89, 2.84, 6.00 l/min, and for the diameter ratio of 4.9, 9.0, 13.1. The local cold storage performance in the case of using water applied for the commercial ice-ball system was axially investigated by changing the flow rate only with the inlet temperature of -7.deg. C and the diameter ratio of 9.0 in order to compare with the performance in the case of using n-Tetradecane. For the case of using n-Tetradecane, the difference of cold storage period between the first and the seventh story was increased as the inlet temperature was increased and the flow rate was decreased. The capsules at the center of the tank showed the supercooling and the increased cold storage period compared with the capsules at the wall of the tank due to the small porosity and insufficient cold storage performance at the center of the tank as the diameter ratio is increased. The case using water showed worse cold storage performance due to comparatively large supercooling than the case using n-Tetradecane.

This study was performed to investigate airtight storage characteristics of rough rice using airtight flexible pve container. A storage test of rough rice of 4 tonnes was carried out to determine the changes of gas composition of air in the container, grain moisture content, air temperature and relative humidity , the presence of insects ,germination rate, crack ratio , fat acidity , 1000-kernel weight, and brown rice recovery over storage period of 5 months in Suwon. Concentration of oxygen was decreased from 20% to 16% and carbon dioxide was increased of from 0.03% to 1.6%. The grain moisture content was decreased from 14.4%(w.b) to 14.1%(w.b) for 5 months storage period . Insect population levels were low but these increased after 5 months storage. Most of insects were dead, Fat acidity increased from 7.5(mg KOH/100g) to 10.2(mg KOH/100g). Other storage factors such as germination rate, brown rice recovery and 1000-kernel , and 1000-kernel weight slightly decreased and crack ratio was slightly increased. Qualities of rough rice during 5 months storage period under hemetic air conditions were maintained fairly good considering the above changes of quality factors during storage.

This paper presents the experimental study of cabin thermal comfort using a cold storage heat exchanger in a vehicle air-conditioning system. Recent vehicle-applied ISG functions for fuel economy and emission, but when vehicles stop, compressors in the air-conditioning system stop, and the cabin temperature sharply increases, making passengers feel thermal discomfort. This study conducts thermal comfort evaluation in the vehicle, which is applied to a cold storage system for the climate control wind tunnel test and the vehicle fleet road test with various airflow volume rates and ambient temperatures blowing to the cold storage heat exchanger. The experimental results, in the cold storage system, air discharge temperature is $3.1-4.2^{\circ}C$ lower than current air-conditioning system when the compressor stops and provides cold air for at least 38 extra seconds. In addition, the blowing airflow volume to the cold storage heat exchanger with various ambient temperature was examined for the control logic of the cold storage system, and in the results, the airflow volume rate is dominant over the outside temperature. For this study, a cold storage system is economically useful to keep the cabin at a thermally comfortable level during the short period when the engine stops in ISG vehicles.

In the information storage development, the trend of the storage device is to increase the recording density. Among such an effort, near-field probe recording is spotlighted as a method of high increasing recording density. For the successfully embodiment of storage device, the actuating mechanism of near-field probe is essentially designed. In this paper, we suggest the slider similar with conventional HDDs and design the slider using near- field probe for the purpose of applying the slider in order to control gap between probe and media. The most important object of slider design is to guarantee the flying ability and stability. For achievement of these design objects, we perform two step of optimal design process. The media is mod! eled as random displacement, which is only considered roughness of disk surface. The design slider is analyzed with dynamic state in assumed media. At this process, the optimal model is confirmed to stable flying stability.

Data storage related with writing and retrieving requires high storage capacity, fast transfer rate and less access time. Today any data storage system cannot satisfy these conditions, however holographic data storage system can perform faster data transfer rate because it is a page oriented memory system using volume hologram in writing and retrieving data. System can be constructed without mechanical actuating part therefore fast data transfer rate and high storage capacity about $1Tb/cm^3$ can be realized. In this paper, to reduce errors of binary data stored in holographic data storage system, a new method for bit error reduction is suggested. We proposal Algorithm use The Extended Kalman filter. The Kalman filter reduce measurement noise. Therefore, By using this error reduction method following results are obtained; the effect of measurement nois of Pixel is decreased and the intensity profile of data page becomes uniform therefore the better data storage system can be constructed.

To find out suitable storage and marketing condition, northern type 'seosan' garlic was stored for 3 months at controlled atmosphere(CA), modified atmosphere(MA), low(0~1$^{\circ}C$) and room temperature(20$\pm$5$^{\circ}C$), and then marketed at low(2~3$^{\circ}C$) and room temperature (20$\pm$5$^{\circ}C$)after storage. The physiological properties of garlic were investigated among treatments. The garlic respiration increased after 2 months at room temperature storage, which seem to be dormancy break time. During storage of garlic by CA, MA condition, sprouting and weight loss were prevented effectively by suppress of respiration, and hardness was maintained higher then those of the others. Decay rate occurred 8.1% at room temperature storage, 2% at MA storage but didn't occurred at CA and low temperature storages. When marketed at room and low temperature after storage, increment of respiration and sprouting were delayed, and changes of weight and hardness were low in garlics stored at CA and MA. Decay rate occurred high in garlics stored at MA and room temperature.

In-network storage is an effective technique for avoiding network congestion and reducing power consumption in continuous data collection in wireless sensor networks. In recent years, network coding based storage design has been proposed as a means to achieving ubiquitous access that permits any query to be satisfied by a few random (nearby) storage nodes. To maintain data consistency in continuous data collection applications, the readings of a sensor over time must be sent to the same set of storage nodes. In this paper, we present an efficient approach to updating data at storage nodes to maintain data consistency at the storage nodes without decoding out the old data and re-encoding with new data. We studied a transmission strategy that identifies a set of storage nodes for each source sensor that minimizes the transmission cost and achieves ubiquitous access by transmitting sparsely using the sparse matrix theory. We demonstrate that the problem of minimizing the cost of transmission with coding is NP-hard. We present an approximation algorithm based on regarding every storage node with memory size B as B tiny nodes that can store only one packet. We analyzed the approximation ratio of the proposed approximation solution, and compared the performance of the proposed coding approach with other coding schemes presented in the literature. The simulation results confirm that significant performance improvement can be achieved with the proposed transmission strategy.
