Collapse shape of tunnel roof in layered Hoek-Brown rock media is investigated within the framework of upper bound theorem. The traditional collapse mechanism for homogeneous stratum is no longer suitable for the present analysis of roof stability, and it would be necessary to propose a curve failure mode to describe the velocity discontinuity surface in layered media. What is discussed in the paper is that the failure mechanism of tunnel roofs, consisting of two different functions, is proposed for layered rock media. Then it is employed to investigate the impending roof failure. Based on the nonlinear Hoek-Brown failure criterion, the collapse volume of roof blocks are derived with the upper bound theorem and variational principle. Numerical calculations and parametric analysis are carried out to illustrate the effects of different parameters on the shape of failure mechanism, which is of overriding significance to the stability analysis of tunnel roof in layered rock media.

We investigated a solution-derived $Y_2O_3$ film treated by ion beam (IB) irradiation as a liquid crystal (LC) alignment layer. With IB irradiation, homogeneous LC alignment was achieved irrespective of the annealing temperature. To verify the effect of IB irradiation, we conducted surface analyses such as X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) and scanning electron microscopy (SEM). As $Y_2O_3$ is a high-k material, the electro-optical properties of the twisted nematic (TN) cells were superior to those of conventional TN cells based on a rubbed polymer, with an LC rising time of 4.1ms and falling time of 2.9ms. The IB-irradiated $Y_2O_3$ is a good alternative as an alignment layer for fast-switching TN LC displays.

The purpose of this study is to examine the effects of assertiveness training and value clarification training on nurse's conflict and conflict management mode. Fifty seven registered nurses participated in the study ; they were employed by three general hospital located in Daegu, Korea. The study employs two treatment groups. The assertiveness training group consisted of subjects who participated in 90-120 minutes sessions of assertiveness training nine times over five weeks. The other treatment group, was adiministed nine, 90-120 minutes sessions of value clarification during the same period. For the control group, nursing subjects were appointed the training after five weeks. Pre-test evaluation were administered to all subjects in three groups prior to one week of the treatment. Role conflict Inventory-general(RCI-G) and Communication Conflict Inventory-general (CCI-G) measure nurse's conflict management mode. Post-test evaluation were administered to all subjects in three groups two weeks after the last session by Role Conflict Inventory-Specific(RCI-S), Communication Conflict Inventory-Specific (CCI-S), Management Model-Specific(CMMI-S). The analysis of variance(ANOVA) and covariance(ANCOVA) on gain scores were running the SPSS program. In order to test statistical differences among mean scores of the scales obtained after treatment, multiple comparisons were carried out by Turkey method. Conclusions obtained from the results are as follows. 1. The assertiveness training and the value clarification training were effective in decreasing the nurse's role conflict. The value clarification was more effective than the assertiveness training in decreasing the nurse's role conflict. 2. Both assertiveness training and value clarification training were effective in decreasing nurse's communication conflict. There was, however, no differences between assertiveness training and value clarification training in decreasing the nurse's communication conflict. 3. The assertiveness training and the value clarification training were quite effective in compromizing and collaborating conflict management mode, to reducing the withdrawl and accomodate, force and accomodate conflict management mode to conflict. There was no difference in the effectiveness of assertiveness training and value clarification. In assessing the effects of the treatments, this study employed different measurements. It is unclear whether the measurement affected the test results. It is worth conducting a further test using the same measurements. The results of future studies can be compared with those of this study. The homogeneity of the control group and treatment group is questionable. Futher studies may employ homogeneous sample group to evaluate whether the sample characteristics bias the test results. Assertiveness training or value clarification training for nurses can be utilized in nursing intervention.

Aluminium Foam Sandwich (AFS) panels are becoming always more attractive in transportation applications thanks to the excellent combination of mechanical properties, high strength and stiffness, with functional ones, thermo-acoustic isolation and vibration damping. These properties strongly depend on the density of the foam, the morphology of the pores, the type (open or closed cells) and the size of the gas bubbles enclosed in the solid material. In this paper, the vibrational performances of two classes of sandwich panels with an Alulight(R) foam core are studied. Experimental tests, in terms of frequency response function and modal analysis, are performed in order to investigate the effect of different percentage of porosity in the foam, as well as the effect of the random distribution of the gas bubbles. Experimental results are used as a reference for developing numerical models using finite element approach. Firstly, a sensitivity analysis is performed in order to obtain a limit-but-bounded dynamic response, modelling the foam core as a homogeneous one. The experimental-numerical correlation is evaluated in terms of natural frequencies and mode shapes. Afterwards, an update of the previous numerical model is presented, in which the core is not longer modelled as homogeneous. Mass and stiffness are randomly distributed in the core volume, exploring the space of the eigenvectors.

Turbulence plays a crucial role in controlling star formation as it produces density fluctuation as well as non-thermal pressure against gravity. Therefore, turbulence controls the mode and tempo of star formation. However, despite a plenty of previous studies, the properties of turbulence remain poorly understood. As part of the Taeduk Radio Astronomy Observatory (TRAO) Key Science Program (KSP), "mapping Turbulent properties In star-forming MolEcular clouds down to the Sonic scale (TIMES; PI: Jeong-Eun Lee)", we mapped the Orion A and the Ophiuchus clouds, in three sets of lines (13CO 1-0/C18O 1-0, HCN 1-0/HCO+ 1-0, and CS 2-1/N2H+ 1-0) with a high-velocity resolution (~0.1 km/s) using the TRAO 14-m telescope. The mean Trms for the observed maps are less than 0.25 K, and all these maps show uniform Trms values throughout the observed area. These homogeneous and high signal-to-noise ratio data provide the best chance to probe the nature of turbulence in two different star-forming clouds, the Orion A and Ophiuchus clouds. We present comparisons between the line intensities of different molecular tracers as well as the results of a Principal Component Analysis (PCA).

SPECT 이상조직 검출능에 근거한 투사 영상의 다해상도 필터링 기법이 SPECT 영상 재구성 문제에 대한 한 최적 해를 제공할 수 있다. 본 논문에서는, 이전 연구 결과와 관련하여, 주어진 물리적 조건하에서의 SPECT 이상조직 검출능을 m개의 최소 검출가능 이상조직 크기 (MDLS)로 예측하고, 각 MDLS에 의존하는 해상도 $\frac{MDLS}{4\sqrt{2In2}}$를 유지하는 수준에서 잡음 억제 효과를 최대화하도록 설계된 m개의 재구성 필터를 구성시켰다. 제안된 다해상도 필터링 기법은, 주어진 투사 영상으로부터 이들 필터들을 적용하여 얻어진 m개 수준 해상도의 필터 영상에 coarse-to-fine 접근방법을 사용하였다. 먼저 필터 영상 각각에 대하여, 각 화소를 중심으로 한 창에서 계산된 지역 분산값과 지역 분산 분포로부터 결정된 최빈값을 비교함으로써 지역 균일도를 결정한다. 지역 균일도에 근거하여, 해상도가 가장 낮은 필터 영상으부터 균일한 영역으로 추정되는 화소들을 찾아 그 화소 값을 취하고, 나머지 화소에 대해서는 점점 해상도가 높은 필터 영상으로부터 균일 영역 화소를 찾는 과정을 반복한다. 균일 영역 화소를 찾는 반복 과정을 마친 후에도 여전히 윤곽선 영역으로 암아 있는 화소들에 대해서는 최고 해상도 필터 영상의 화소 값이 대체된다. 모의 실험 수행 결과, 제안된 다해상도 필터링 기법은 투사 영상의 균일 지역에서는 강한 평활화 효과를 보이는 반면 윤곽선 지역에서는 우수한 해상도 향상 효과를 보였으며, 이에 따라 재구성 영상에서의 우수한 적응적 효과를 제공하였다.

최근 들어 싱글족, 맞벌이 부부 증가 등 가구구성 체계에 많은 변화가 발생하였고, 이로 인한 개인들의 일상적인 업무수행의 변화는 통행행태에도 지대한 영향을 미치게 되었다. 이 중 중요한 특징 중의 하나는 예를 들어 출근 중에 자녀들을 등교시키거나, 퇴근 길에 구매 또는 여가활동을 수행하는 다수의 통행목적을 하나의 out-going 통행으로 처리되는 비중이 늘고 있다는 것이다. 따라서 통행을 하나의 목적을 수행하기 위하여 독립적으로 발생하는 것이 아닌 하루 동안 개인이 다양한 활동을 수행하기 위하여 장소를 이동한 activity-based 개념의 통행고리의 형태로 파악하고 이에 기반 한 통행발생 모형의 필요성이 높다. 본 논문은 통행발생 모형에 있어서 직업, 승용차 보유여부 등을 기준으로 "유사한 통행특성"을 갖는 집단을 분류하고, 집단별 구성원들의 평균적인 1일 중 activity diary를 분석하여 업무수행 순서, 통행고리별 발생시간, 이용 교통수단 등 통행특성에 의하여 총 통행량을 추정하는 모형을 개발하였다. 실증적인 검증으로서 공주시 가구통행실태조사를 수행하여 "유사통행행태" 집단의 분류, 집단별 통행행태의 특성과 이에 기초한 교통지구 별 통행발생량을 추정하였다. "유사통행행태" 집단의 구분은 통행발생에 있어서 유의성이 높은 설명인자인 직업과 승용차의 보유여부, 학생인지의 여부를 기준으로 하였다. 분석결과 이와 같은 구분기준이 기존 국내 교통계획모형에서 일반적으로 적용되고 있는 산업군 분류기준에 비하여 비교적 통행특성을 잘 반영하고 있는 것으로 나타났다. 또한 집단별 통행고리 특성에 기반 한 통행발생 추정 결과 교통지구별 통행발생량들이 교통지구별 인구, 직장인수, 자동차 보유율과 인구유입시설 등의 각종 사회 경제지표의 특성 등도 잘 반영하는 것으로 나타났다.

용접접합부 균열의 파괴역학적 해석을 위해서는 용접중에 발생하는 잔류응력해석과 파괴해석이 병행되어야 한다. 잔류응력이 존재하면 J-적분은 더 이상 적분경고에 관계없이 인정한 값을 갖는 특성을 잃어버리게 된다. 또한 균질한 재료와는 달리 이종재료 계면균열에서는 균열선난에서 Mode I과 Mode II의 파괴거동이 동시에 발생한다. 그러므로 이종강재 용접접합부 균열의 J-적분 해석을 위해서는 이종강재 용접시 발생하는 잔류응력이 존재하는 경우에도 적분경로에 관계없이 일정한 값을 갖는 새로운 J-적분식이 도입되어야 한다. 따라서 본 연구에서는 기존의 J-적분을 수정하여, 이종강재 용접시 발생하는 잔류응력이 존재하는 경우에 경로 독립성을 유지하는 J-적분을 고찰하고, 이를 이용하여 잔류응력과 외력이 동시에 작용하는 균열선단에서의 J-적분을 해석할 수 있는 프로그램을 개발하였다. 자체개발한 탄소성 해석프로그램을 이용하여 이종강재 용접시 잔류응력과 외력에 대한 응력분포를 계산하였으며, 이를 이용하여 잔류응력과 외력의 복합하중에 대한 J-적분을 계산하였다.

Natural gas is one of the most promising alternatives to gasoline and diesel fuels because of its lower harmful emissions, including $CO_2$, and high thermal efficiency. In particular, natural gas is seen as an alternative fuel for heavy-duty Diesel Engines because of the lower resulting emissions of PM, $CO_2$ and $NO_x$. Almost all CNG vehicles use the PFI-type Engine. However, PFI-type CNG Engines have a lower brake horse power, because of reduced volumetric efficiency and lower burning speed. This is a result of gaseous charge and the time losses increase as compared with the DI-type. This study was conducted to investigate the effect of injection conditions (early injection mode, late injection mode) on the combustion phenomena and performances in the or CNG Engine. A DI Diesel Engine with the same specifications used in a previous study was modified to a DI CNG Engine, and injection pressure was constantly kept at 60bar by a two-stage pressure-reducing type regulator. In this study, excess air ratios were varied from 1.0 to the lean limit, at the load conditions 50% throttle open rate and 1700rpm. The combustion characteristics of the or CNG Engine - such as in-cylinder pressure, indicated thermal efficiency, cycle-by-cycle variation, combustion duration and emissions - were investigated. Through this method, it was possible to verify that the combustion duration, the lean limit and the emissions were improved by control of injection timing and the stratified mixture conditions. And combustion duration is affected by not only excess air ratio, injection timing and position of piston but gas flow condition.

CREAMS (Circulation Research of the East Asian Marginal Seas) Expeditions have provided a rare opportunity to carry out precise measurements of salinity, temperature and chemical tracers extensively in all major basins of the East Sea (Japan Sea) in 1993-1996 for the first time in more than 60 years since Uda's investigation (Uda, 1934). Studies revealed unequivocal evidence that the East Sea Proper Water (ESPW), previously known as a single homogeneous water mass, is indeed made of several distinct water masses. CREAMS data further confirmed the earlier observations of Gamo et al. (1986) that properties in Deep Waters in the East Sea have been changing during at least the last 25 years. There is evidence, especially from the analysis of the DO profile, that these changes may result from a major change in the mode of deep water formation: from bottom water formation in the past to intermediate/deep water formation in recent years. The causes for these changes are not clear at the present time, but nay include natural variation and may also reflect recent global changes in regional scale. A moving-boundary box model is presented to describe current observations, predicting the turnover time of the total deep and bottom waters to the cold surface waters to be ${\sim}$80 years in 1996.
