  • Based on the Kohut's theory, this study carries out an investigation into the counselor's self object role in pathological narcissism. The theological understandings deal with narcissism, pathology, and self object. Narcissism and pathology can be seen as the failure of the formation of cohesive self. Early infant self, by feeling proper sympathy and love, usually forms integrated cohesive self. In other words, narcissistic personalities, when failing to receive sympathy and accommodation, can result in forming helpless and vulnerable self, which is filled with resentment. In addition, narcissistic characters are afraid of the world and maintain the grandiose image of self to protect themselves from feeling helplessness and emptiness. On the other hand, when they experience accommodation and admiration provided by self object, they can strengthen the image of grandiose self and demonstrate creative abilities as well. An infant remains as a fragmented self, when his or her relationship experience with self object is to be damaged. This study suggests the following conclusions: The counselor's self object role for pathological narcissism should be sympathetic self object so that the counselee will be able to form his or her own healthy cohesive self. Additionally, self object should play a kind role to guide infant desires for ideal models, which eventually help infants to pursue healthy ideas and maintain early states of narcissistic balances.

  • In this study, numerical analysis is applied to a two - dimensional model for verifying the general finite element program, Abaqus' s extended finite element method(XFEM). The cohesive element model used in the existing research has a limitation in simulating the actual crack because of the disadvantage that the crack path should be predicted and the element should be inserted. For this reason, the extended finite element method(XFEM), which predicts the path of cracks based on the directionality and specificity of stress, is emerging as a new solution in crack analysis. The validity of the XFEM application was confirmed by comparing the cohesive element analysis with the XFEM analysis by applying the crack path to the self - evident two - dimensional model. Numerical analysis confirms stress distribution and stress specificity immediately before crack initiation and compares it with actual crack initiation path. Based on this study, it is expected that cracks can be simulated by performing actual crack propagation analysis of complex models.

  • Cohesive sediments form flocs through the flocculation process. The size and density of floc are variable whereas those of a fine sediment are always assumed to be constant. The settling velocity, one of main factors of sediment transport, is determined by size and density of particle. Therefore, the flocculation process plays an important role in transport of cohesive sediment. It is of great difficulty to directly measure the density of floc in the field due to technical limitation at present. It is a popular approach to estimate the density of floc by applying the fractal theory. The main assumption of fractal theory is the self-similarity. This study aims to examine the applicability of fractal theory to cohesive sediment in small rivers of Korea. Sampling sediment has been conducted in two different basins of Geum river and Yeongsan river. The results of settling experiments using commercial camera show that the sediment in Geum river basin follows the main concept of fractal theory whereas the sediment in Yeongsan river basin does not have a clear relationship between floc size and fractal dimension. It is known from this finding that the fractal theory is not easily applicable under the condition that the cohesive sediment includes the high content of organic matter.

  • This paper describes the role of counselors' transitional object for the therapeutic activation of clients who have lost the function of selfobject based on Heinz Kohut's Self theory. In this study, it was an opportunity to confirm that human beings need self-target throughout their lives. Next, referring to the process of metamorphic internalization, infants return to reality from a fantasy world, experiencing parental limitations due to optimal frustration through self-targeting. The role of a counselor as a transfer target shall ensure that the counsellor establishes an cohesive self-identity and uses the appropriate self-target. And they should empathize with the over-the-topism and flauntism of the physician, and the counselor should be the object of idealization, giving the interviewer the opportunity to be recognized and identified. The counselor may provide the best frustration for the counsellor during the consultation process. When the counselor acknowledges his mistake, the counselor looks at the counselor realistically and builds a healthy self to achieve transformative internalization. If you form an cohesive self to a physician through counseling, you can empathize with others and form a healthy human relationship. Then you can control your emotions and have a vision. And the patient realizes that he or she has no choice but to live by having a relationship with the right person throughout his or her life.

  • Visual literacy, a key element of a design portfolio, is achieved by communicating a consistent visual aesthetic with respect to design elements, design principles and individual style. Yet, students often feel challenged in articulating their personal aesthetic or design philosophy in order to create a unifying design identity within a body of artifacts. This paper shares some best practices on overcoming this challenge through students' engagement in self-reflection and identity formation processes. The implemented innovative strategy in a senior-level portfolio development course for apparel designers involved four different phases: 1) one-on-one meetings to self-reflect on previous design work, 2) selection and revision of artifacts, 3) peer-review and critiques of revised portfolio artifacts, and 4) development of a final ePortfolio to showcase a unified design identity. It was evident that recording students' initial self-reflection in the form of a metacognitive oral report encouraged and motivated identity development in their portfolio. Further, students expressed their satisfaction in the ability to participate in the selection process of artifacts by self-reflecting about what they wanted to highlight about themselves and why. Overall, student outcomes from this strategy exceeded expectations and the portfolios developed were successful in creating a cohesive design identity.

  • Self-consolidating concrete (SCC) is a stable and cohesive high consistency concrete mix with enhanced filling ability properties that reduce the need for mechanical compaction. Limited standards and specifications have been reported in the literature on the structural behavior of reinforced self-compacting concrete elements. The significance of the research presented in this paper stems from the need to investigate the effect of enhanced fluidity of SCC on the structural behavior of high strength self-consolidating reinforced concrete beams. To meet the objectives of this research, twelve reinforced concrete beams were prepared with two different generations of superplasticizers and designed to exhibit flexure, shear, or bond splitting failure. The compared beams were identical except for the type of superplasticizer being used (second generation sulphonated-based superplasticizer or third generation polycarboxylate-based superplasticizer). The outcomes of the experimental work revealed comparable resistance of beam specimens made with self-compacting (SCC) and conventional vibrated concrete (VC). The dissimilarities in the experimental values between the SCC and the control VC beams were not major, leading to the conclusion that the high flowability of SCC has little effect on the flexural, shear and bond strengths of concrete members.

  • The purpose of this study was to evaluate the adaptation of self-cured glass ionomer cement and resin-modified glass ionomer cement and polyacid-modified resin composite, which are light-cured giass ionomer cements, to dentin surface. Twelve extracted human maxillary and mandibular molar teeth were used in this study. The entire occlusal dentin surfaces of teeth were exposed with Diamond Wheel Saw and smoothed with sand papers (300, 600, 1200grits). They were randomly assigned into 3 groups according to glass ionomer cements used; Control group- Fuji II, Expeimental group 1 - Fuji II LC, Expeimental group 2 - Dyract. According to the manufacturer's directions, three glass ionomer cements were bonded to exposed dentin surfaces of the tooth crown and cured. Crowns and glass ionomers were trimmed after 24hrs and sectioned horizontally and vertically with diamond saw. The interface of glass ionomer cements and dentin was examined under SEM. The results were as follows : 1. Good adatation between glass ionomer cement and dentin on the horizontal section was showed in control and experimental group 1, but the gap of $20{\mu}m$, which was observed distinct separation between glass ionomer cement and dentin, was showed in experimental group 2. 2. Good adatation between glass ionomer cements and dentin on the vertical section was showed in control and experimental group 1, but the gap of 80-$100{\mu}m$ was showed in experimental group 2. 3. Cohesive fracture within glass ionomer cements in control and experimental group 1 was showed, but no cohesive fracture was showed in experimental group 2.

  • Digital image processing algorithms for the analysis and characterization of grains and voids in cemented materials were developed using toolbox functions of a mathematical software package. Utilization of grayscale, color and watershed segmentation algorithms and their performances were demonstrated on artificially prepared self-compacting concrete (SCC) samples. It has been found that color segmentation was more advantageous over the gray scale segmentation for the detection of voids whereas the latter method provided satisfying results for the aggregate grains due to the sharp contrast between their colors and the cohesive matrix. The watershed segmentation method, on the other hand, appeared to be very efficient while separating touching objects in digital images.

  • With the increasing demand in the production of concrete, there is a need for adopting a feasible, economical and sustainable technique to fulfill practical requirements. Self-Compacting Concrete (SCC) is one such technique which addresses the concrete industry in providing eco-friendly and cost effective concrete. The objective of the present study is to develop a mix design for SCC with Crushed Rock Fines (CRF) as fine aggregate based on the plastic viscosity of the mix and validate the same for its fresh and hardened properties. Effect of plastic viscosity on the fresh and hardened properties of SCC is also addressed in the present study. SCC mixes are made with binary and ternary blends of Fly Ash (FA) and Ground Granulated Blast Slag (GGBS) with varying percentages as a partial replacement to Ordinary Portland Cement (OPC). The proposed mix design is validated successfully with the experimental investigations. The results obtained, indicated that the fresh properties are best achieved for SCC mix with ternary blend followed by binary blend with GGBS, Fly Ash and mix with pure OPC. It is also observed that the replacement of sand with 100% CRF resulted in a workable and cohesive mix.

  • Self-compacting concrete (SCC) can be placed and compacted under its own weight with little or no compaction. It is cohesive enough to be handled without segregation or bleeding. Modifications in the mix design of SCC may significantly influence the material's mechanical properties. Therefore, it is vital to investigate whether all the assumed hypotheses about conventional concrete (CC) are also valid for SCC structures. The aim in this paper is to develop analytical models for flexural cracking that describe in appropriate detail the observed cracking behaviour of the reinforced concrete flexural one way slabs tested. The crack width and crack spacing calculation procedures outlined in five international codes, namely Eurocode 2 (1991), CEB-FIP (1990), ACI318-99 (1999), Eurocode 2 (2004), and fib-Model Code (2010), are presented and crack widths and crack spacing are accordingly calculated. Then, the results are compared with the proposed analytical models and the measured experimental values, and discussed in detail.
