As Kori unit 1 is undergoing the decommissioning process, estimating the disposal amount of waste from the decommissioned nuclear reactor has become one of the challenging issues. Since the waste disposal amount estimation depends on the packing of the waste, it is highly desirable to optimize the waste packing plan. In this study, we developed an efficient scheme for packing waste component segments. The scheme consists of 1) preparing three-dimensional models of segments, 2) orienting each segment in such a way to minimize the bounding box volume, and 3) applying hybrid genetic algorithm to pack the segments in the disposal containers. When the packing solution converges in the algorithm, it comes up with the number of containers used and the placement of segments in each container. The scheme was applied to Kori-1 reactor pressure vessel. The required number of containers calculated by the developed scheme was 24 compared to 42 that was the estimation of the prior packing plan, resulting in disposal volume savings by more than 40%. The developed method is flexible for applications to various packing problems with waste segments from different cutting options and different sizes of containers.

Pressure drop and flow characteristics through a filter medium have been investigated numerically. A basic model similar to the filter employed in a hard disk drive was established so that the inflow velocity was 0.1 m/s and the box size was $40mm{\times}50mm{\times}30mm$. The filter medium specifications were 0.38mm of thickness, $1{\mu}m$ of fiber diameter, 0.05 of packing density. And the filter medium was pleated by 10 within the filter box. Twenty-one sets of calculation were performed with different inlet velocities, pleated numbers, and packing densities from the basic model. As the result, it was found that the velocity after filter medium had maximum value at the rear of the upstream pleated line, but had minimum value at the rear of the downstream pleated line. This made the velocity distribution have sinusoidal form immediately after the filter medium. As the inlet velocity increased, the pressure drop increased linearly. But as the packing density increased the pressure drop increased quadratically.

Rapid Prototyping has made a drastic change in all industries which needs to reduce the time for the development of new products. Orientation and packing in rapid prototyping is considered as the most important factors to maximize the utilization of space in the build chamber and reduce build time. However, the decision of these parameter is mainly dependant on the operators's experience. This paper presents the methodology to find the optimal build layout considering an orientation and packing of multiple parts in SLS processing. Each part is represented as a voxel structure to deal with the inefficiency in a bounding box approach. Test results show that the adapted BL algorithm with a genetic algorithm(GA) can be applicable to a real industry.

This study was carried out to investigate the influences of environmental condition in storage room, moisture content and packing weight of leaf on the carbonization of processed flue-cured leaf tobacco, and find out a regression model able to pre-estimate the degree of carbonization. The influence of temperature and humidity in storage room on the carbonization was high,, while that of packing weight was relatively low, However, high moisture content and packing weight of leaf accelerated the carbonization under the high temperature and humidity condition. Thus the leaf tobacco under the condition of 4$0^{\circ}C$, 7$0^{\circ}C$ R.H. in storage room, 16% moisture content and 286 kg/box of packing weight could be carbonized within one month. The pH, total sugar content, lightness(L) and yellowness(b) of leaf were closely related to carbonization of leaf during storage. There were significant regression and yellowness of leaf. It is considered that the certification and/or pre-estimation of carbonization during storage may be possible by applying the regression equation.

This study compared and analyzed the importance-satisfaction regarding the selection attributes of the convenience store focusing on PB lunch box for consumers of 20s and 30s. According to the research results, the importance of factors such as easy purchase, time reduction, convenient intake were found to be high among the selection attributes of the convenience store PB lunchbox and those of factors such as confirmation of food ingredients, nutrition, and new taste were found to be relatively low. In addition, factors with high satisfaction included easy purchase, convenient intake, time reduction, while factors with low satisfaction were confirmation of food ingredients, nutrition and hygiene. The results of the IPA analysis were as follows: The $1^{st}$ quadrant (Keep up the good work) included convenience, time reduction, easy purchase, convenient intake, convenient cooking method, and convenient packing container Etc. $2^{nd}$ quadrant (possible overkill) includes origin labeling and the 3rd quadrant (low priority) includes packing container design, convenient storage, consistency of quality and taste, good taste, moderate amount, new taste, one meal, moderate quantity and quality, inexpensive intake, and hygiene Etc. $4^{th}$ quadrant was found to include no corresponding factors.

This paper analyzes the consumers' preference for packaged apple and derives the measures to vitalize the distribution of packaged apple. To do this, survey was conducted for consumers in large cities, Seoul, Busan, and Daegu to observe their purchasing behavior and satisfaction both for packaged and unpackaged apple. Survey was focused to how they are satisfied with several attributes of package such as size, appearance, content, material, and label. On the basis of the survey results, the values of the package attributes were estimated. Survey results show that consumers tend to buy unpackaged apple rather than packaged apple. About 34 percent out of 313 respondents have ever purchased apple packed with paper box while only 10.5 percent have an experience to buy packaged apple with transparent box. Most respondents answered they preferred the package of five to six apples and 1.3 kilograms most. They preferred mid or large size apple. Estimation of the values of the package attributes using the conjoint analysis shows that consumers are giving the highest value to the price of packing material. It means that consumers are reluctant to the extra payment resulted from packing the apple. Therefore, the efforts to reduce the cost of packing apple should be made steadily. In order to vitalize the distribution of small packaged apple, the package should contain high quality apple with high sugar content, proper size, good appearance, and so on. And it needs to be promoted to the consumers that small packaged apple are not inferior to apple packed with paper box.

While anthropomorphic robots are gaining interest, dual-arm robots are widely used in the industrial environment. Many methods exist in order to implement bimanual tasks by dual-arm robot. However, kinesthetic teaching is used in this paper. This paper suggests three different kinesthetic teaching methods that can implement most of the human task by the robot. The three kinesthetic teaching methods are joint level, task level, and contact level teaching. The task introduced in this paper is box packing, which is a popular and complex task in industrial environment. The task is programmed into the dual-arm robot by utilizing the suggested kinesthetic teaching method, and this paper claims that most tasks can be implemented by using the suggesting kinesthetic teaching methods.

Woodcraft activity is inseparable with our ordinary life and its relevant research should be consistently maintained because it has significant educational value to blossoming students. These days, which interest in woodcraft is rapidly expanding from early childhood to old age, this study was done to provide images to those who work in this field or who have interest. Out of the 43 jewelry and gift boxes used in this study, species of white which has low proportion of packing materials consists of species of Fir (Abies spp), Birch (Betula spp) and Amercia basswood (Tilia americana Linnaeus) and the higher proportion species of Mahogany (Swietenia macrophylla), Bayor (Pteorospermum diversifolium Bl), Snakewood (Piratinera guianensis aubl.) and Bintangor (Calophhyllum spp.) were used in valuable products. It was showed that out of 56 works selected from '400 Wood Boxes', the species of Walnut (Juglans regia), Cherry (Prunus serotina), Wenge (Milletia laurentii De. wild), Ebony (Diospyros spp.), Ash (Fraxinus spp.) and Cocobolo (Dallbergia cultrata Grah.) were frequently used.
