  • This paper presents a generalized finite element formulation for plastic hinge modeling based on lumped plasticity in the classical Euler-Bernoulli beam elements. In this approach, the plastic hinges are effectively modeled using proper enrichment functions describing weak discontinuities of the solution. The proposed methodology enables the insertion of plastic hinges at an arbitrary location without modifying the connectivity of elements. The formations of plastic hinges are instead achieved by hierarchically adding degrees of freedom to existing elements. Convergence analyses such as h- and p-extensions are performed to investigate the effectiveness of the proposed method. The analysis results indicate that the proposed generalized finite element method can achieve theoretical convergence rates for both cases where plastic hinges are located at nodes and within an element, thus demonstrating its accuracy.

  • This study divided hairpiece-related technologies into three categories: Materials, Structure, Hair Extensions. Then, it investigated the current patent application trends in the above technologies and attempted to determine what aspects should be focused on in terms of the growth potential of hairpiece-related technologies and future technologies. A hairpiece is used to cover a specific balding area resulting from innate factors such as heredity or acquired traits including disease or accident. It is also used to make short hair look longer. Recently, as the rates of hair loss caused by stress increase, there has been a rising demand for hairpieces that can quickly and conveniently cover a balding region as well as satisfy people's aesthetic needs through diverse hairstyling. Even though patents have been applied evenly across hairpiece technology fields, patent activity has declined since 2010 was confirmed. Therefore, this study targets the facilitation and expansion of the hairpiece technology market by suggesting desirable R&D directions for future hairpiece-related technologies after analyzing current hairpiece patent trends.

  • The life insurance industry is interested in various factors that influence the long-term extensions of insurance contracts such as the necessity for the advisors' long-term management of consumers, product consulting, and improvement of the investment aspects. This paper investigates important factors leading to a long-term contract that forms an important part of the life insurance industry in Korea. For this purpose we used the data of contents (i.e., data from Jan 1, 2011 to Dec 31, 2016) of the contracts of xxx insurance company. In this paper, we present how to select important variables to influence the duration of the contract maintenance via a penalized Cox's proportional hazards (PH) modelling approach using insurance life data. As the result of analysis, we found that the selected important factors were the advisor's status, the reward type 2 (annuity insurance) and tendency 4 (safety-pursuing type).

  • Purpose: This article was conducted to determine the immediate effects of unilateral contract-relax (CR) stretching on contralateral knee extension range and to compare both sides of the knee extension range between experimental and control groups. Methods: This study recruited 16 adult males and females with straight leg raising abilities below $90^{\circ}$. The subjects were randomly divided into an experimental group and a control group comprising 8 subjects each. The experimental group performed direct CR stretching on the right hamstring muscles with straight hip extension adduction, and the control group performed indirect CR stretching on the right hamstring muscles with straight hip flexion abduction. Each group performed CR stretching 4 times with 4 repetitions comprising 10 sec of contraction and a 10 sec break between repetitions. Before and after the CR stretching exercises, the subjects' passive knee extensions were measured at the hip in a $90^{\circ}$ flexed position. The subjects' peak force on the right leg and peak pressure on the left leg during each CR stretching exercise were also measured. Results: After doing CR stretching 4 times, each group showed a significantly increased passive knee extension range on both sides, and there was no difference in the passive knee extension ranges between the groups. The peak force on the right leg was significantly higher in the experimental group than the control group. There was no difference in peak pressure between the groups. Conclusion: After applying unilateral CR stretching, the study subjects experienced a significantly increased passive knee extension range on the contralateral side. For patients who find it difficult to apply stretching techniques to knee joints directly, the use of the proprioceptive neuromuscular facilitation technique of CR stretching may be useful in improving the range of the knee joint on the contralateral side without direct treatment.

  • In this study, Gwanghanru Pavilion (Namwon-si, Cheonbuk Province) was dated by tree rings of pines (Pinus densiflora Sieb. et Zucc., 'sonamu' in Korean). The present Gwanghanru Pavilion is composed of three parts: main, wing and entrance parts. The main part is known to have been built in 1626 and the entrance hall in 1879, but the date of construction of the wing part is still unknown. We dated a total of 55 wood samples which were replaced during the repair process in 2001~2002. Tree-ring dates indicated that both main and wing parts were built in 1626. Tree rings also revealed that the entrance hall was constructed in 1880~1881, and both main and wing parts were heavily repaired together while appending the entrance hall. In conclusion, dendrochronology, i.e., tree-ring dating, was a useful and accurate method to identify the critical dates-such as the dates of original construction, reconstruction, repairs and extensions-for the history of Korean traditional buildings.

  • In order to support various parallel computing systems, it is necessary to extend LLVM IR to more efficiently support vector / matrix and to design LLVM IR to machine code as a new algorithm. As shown in the IR example, RISC instruction generation is naturally generated because the RISC instruction is basically composed of the RISC instruction, and the vector instruction is also not supported. There is a need for new IR structures, command generation algorithms and related extensions to support vector / matrix more robustly. To do this, it is important to map each instruction in the LLVM IR to the appropriate instruction in the target architecture (vector / matrix) (instruction selection algorithm). It is necessary to understand the meaning of LLVM IR command, to compare the meaning of each instruction of the target architecture with syntax, and to select the instruction that matches the pattern to make mapping efficient.

  • Physical memory analysis has been an issue on a field of live forensic analysis in digital forensics until now. It is very useful to make the result of analysis more reliable, because record of user behavior and data can be founded on physical memory although process is hided. But most memory analysis focuses on windows based system. Because the diversity of target system to be analyzed rises up, it is very important to analyze physical memory based on other OS, not Windows. Mac OS X, has second market share in Operating System, is operated by loading kernel image to physical memory area. In this paper, We propose a methodology for physical memory analysis on Mac OS X using symbol information in kernel image, and acquire a process information, mounted device information, kernel information, kernel extensions(eg. KEXT) and system call entry for detecting system call hooking. In additional to the methodology, we prove that physical memory analysis is very useful though experimental study.

  • In this paper, we propose a API Gateway technique for the expansion of human resource management module, one of the ERP functions. The institution has introduced ERP (Enterprise Resource Planning) based on its efforts to transform all human and physical resources into business competitiveness and its response to the digital knowledge informatization environment, and listed it as multiple success factors. Human resource management is one of the factors that have been dealt with. However, ERP's Human Resources Management Module remains in the role of functional personnel management. How to utilize human resources begins with navigating and recognizing human resources. The proposed API Gateway technique leverages blockchain networks to design and implement APIs for human resource sharing and navigation, including the possibility of extending ERP's human resource management module. Secondly, it was designed and implemented using a smart contract that behaves like an API for preventing information forgery. The proposed method will not only be used as a tool that can actively utilize human resources, but will also be a complete resource for utilizing big data technology.

  • This study aims to lead the new discussion by looking at variables affecting the number of subscription channels and subscription satisfaction in the absence of academic discussion of users' YouTube subscriptions. To this end, we conducted an online survey and analyzed the factors affecting the number of subscription channels and subscription satisfaction of YouTube users. We conducted hierarchical regression to examine their subscription motivation with exploratory factor analysis and to examine the impact of subscription motivations and the intentionality of Youtubers and the usefulness of YouTube knowledge on the number of subscription channels and subscription satisfaction. The analysis results are as follows: First, YouTube's usage and convenience motivation have had a static impact on the number of subscription channels. Second, factors affecting subscription satisfaction have been shown to be convenience subscription motivation, communication with Youtubers motivation, and perceived usefulness of YouTube. The practical significance of this work is that it can be beneficial to platform and channel operators in the changing new media environment. Furthermore, it aims to expand the interaction research extensions between YouTuber and users in the new media environment.

  • Due to the large number of documents that are important to people and many of their requests from time to time to perform an essential official procedure, this requires a practical arrangement and organization for them. When necessary, many people struggle with effectively arranging official documents that enable display, which takes a lot of time and effort. Also, no mobile apps specialize in professionally preserving essential electronic records and displaying them when needed. Dataset consisting of 10,841 rows and 13 columns was analyzed using Anaconda, Python, and Mito Data Science new tool obtained from Google Play. The research was conducted using the quantitative descriptive approach. The presented solution is a model specialized in saving essential documents, categorizing according to the user's desire, and displaying them when needed. It is possible to send in an image or a pdf file. Aside from identifying file kinds like PDFs and pictures, the model also looks for and verifies specific file extensions. The file extension and its properties are checked before sharing or saving it by applying the similarity algorithm (Levenshtein). Our method effectively and efficiently facilitated the search process, saving the user time and effort. In conclusion, such an application is not available, which facilitates the process of classifying documents effectively and displaying them quickly and easily for people for printing or sending to some official procedures, and it is considered one of the applications that greatly help in preserving time, effort, and money for people.
