This study investigated the engineering characteristics of non-sintering binder-stabilized mixtures consisting of different ratios of a hardening agent(3%, 6%, 9%, 12%) for recycling industrial by-products through several series of laboratory tests. The hardening agents consisted of two kinds of non-sintering binders(NSB-1, NSB-2), which were developed by using inter-chemical reactions among blast furnace slag, phospho-gypsum, and an alkali activator. In addition, ordinary Portland cement(OPC) was used to compare the engineering characteristics of the stabilized mixture. An unconfined compressive test showed that the unconfined compressive strength increased with the curing time and mixing ratio. Experimental test results indicated that the 7-day strength of the NSB-1 mixture was similar to that of the OPC mixture. However, its 28-day strength was higher than that of the OPC mixture. The secant module of elasticity showed a range of $E_{50}=(42-109)q_u$ regardless of the agents. Based on the results of triaxial tests, the cohesion and friction angle increased with the mixing ratio.

In this study, high volume of industrial by-products including blast furnace slag, recycled aggregate powder and incineration ash have been utilized on the slurry of the foamed lightweight concrete. As to decrease the price of the lightweight foam concrete, mortar based slurry and concrete based slurry has been fixed. As the variation of the foam conduction ratio and aggregates, the foam ratio and compressive strength has been tested. Results showed that using recycled aggregates in the slurry showed better effect than using natural aggregates due to the alkali properties of the recycled aggregates could activate the potential hydraulic properties of the blast furnace slag. Consider about the low price of the recycled aggregates, it could be identified that using recycled aggregates in high volume blast furnace slag blended lightweight concrete showed better compressive strength than natural aggregates.

In today's mass production/consumption society, there are many important constituents people need to have/do for their happy life. Very few People think that among those components enjoying Pro-sports in their life is essential, and Many business companies are interested in owning/operating pro-sports teams. Thus, many studies have been progressed on sports management or sports marketing domestically and abroad. This paper studied the preference relationship between subject's majors and products/service and pro-sports. We constructed hypotheses about the relationship and tested them by using ANOVA and Tuckey tests. We found significant results that preference for coke/cider is influenced by subject's majors, and that preference for pro-baseball, pro-football, and pro-basketball is also influenced by subject's major, etc. As the results, we can have important information about who are the most important customers and who should be target customers for marketing and promotion, and with the information related business companies can attain higher profitability and less loss through more effective sports marketing.

Offshore software development (OSD) is international business collaboration. OSD projects often encounter intercultural and inter-linguistic problems disturbing the projects. Business documents are formal media of information and knowledge for OSD. While OSD documents should convey common understanding of the OSD products, the documents may contain unsuitable expressions which draw misunderstanding of the required products and offensive issues for the collaboration. Intercultural and inter-linguistic differences cause mistakes and inappropriate expressions. OSD from Japan to China is the largest in Asia, and Japanese language is often used in OSD documents. Large similarity is found between Japanese and Chinese in their languages, while many differences exist even for the same word. The similarity induces to write unsuitable expressions for both sides of OSD. To introduce risks for OSD projects caused by unsuitable or inappropriate expressions in OSD documents, we propose to apply a proofreading system of Japanese documents for OSD. Japanese consignor uses the system to refine OSD documents written by Japanese engineers for Chinese readers, and Chinese consignee uses it to refine Japanese documents written by Chinese Engineers as derivatives of OSD projects. Effectiveness of applying the proofreading system is discussed for actual projects.

Lot sizing and shipment scheduling are two interrelated decisions made by a manufacturing plant and a third-party logistics distribution center. This paper analyzes a dynamic inbound ordering problem and shipment problem with a freight container cost, in which the order size of multiple products and single container type are simultaneously considered. In the problem, each ordered product placed in a period is immediately shipped by some freight containers in the period, and the total freight cost is proportional to the number of containers employed. It is assumed that the load size of each product is equal and backlogging is not allowed. The objective of this study is to simultaneously determine the lot-sizes and the shipment schedule that minimize the total costs, which consist of production cost, inventory holding cost, and freight cost. Because the problem is NP-hard, we propose three meta-heuristic algorithms: a simulated annealing algorithm, a genetic algorithm, and a new population-based evolutionary meta-heuristic called self-evolution algorithm. The performance of the meta-heuristic algorithms is compared with a local search heuristic proposed by the previous paper in terms of the average deviation from the optimal solution in small size problems and the average deviation from the best one among the replications of the meta-heuristic algorithms in large size problems.

Isolation and identification of algal lytic bacteria were carried out. Nine strains of algal lytic bacteria were isolated by the double-layer method using Anabaena flos-aquae as a sole nutrient. The isolate, AFK-13, showing the highest algal lytic activity was identified as Sinorhizobium kostiense based on the l6S rDNA sequence. The algal lytic experiments of the culture supernatants of AFK-13 demonstrated that the bacterial cell growth reached a maximum at 36-h culture, but the supernatant of 72-h culture exhibited the highest activity. Components among the extracellular products in the crude enzyme of the supernatant from S. kostiense AFK-13 culture were responsible for degradation of cell walls of Anabaena flos-aquae. Algal lytic assay tests of the culture supernatants suggest that the main substances for algal lytic activity could be proteinaceous. The activity of glucosidase was observed highly by polysaccharolytic analysis using the crude enzyme from S. kostiense AFK-13, whereas activities of galactosidase, mannosidase, rhamnosidase, and arabinosidase were also detected in low levels. The molecular weights (MW) of ${\alpha}-\;and\;{\beta}$-glucosidases were estimated to be approximately 50-100 kDa by the ultrafiltration method.

Non-destructive test techniques are becoming increasingly important for assessment and maintenance. These techniques are very useful for assessment of materials such as wood, whose performance can vary considerably depending on the conditions of use. It is possible to estimate some mechanical properties of a material by determining the movement of energy through the material with the help of these techniques. In this study, it was investigated whether the wood material could be tested nondestructively by the heat energy produced by a source. The correlations between the thermal conductivity and mechanical properties of Scots pine (Pinus sylvestris L.) and sessile oak (Quercus petraea L.) woods were investigated. The thermal conductivity (TC), density, modulus of rupture (MOR), compression strength (CS), and modulus of elasticity (MOE) values of samples were measured according to the related standards and these values were correlated with each other. The linear and multiple regression tests were employed to determine the correlation between thermal conductivity and mechanical properties. The results showed that there is a very strong correlation between thermal conductivity and both density and MOR values. However, the correlations between TC and both MOE and CS were moderate. The results of this study suggest that the thermal conductivity value can be used to estimate the density and some mechanical properties of wood.

한국은 1960년대부터 경제개발의 일환으로 사회기반시설, 공업단지 등이 활발히 건설되었으며 이로 인해 현재까지 산업화가 급격히 이루어졌다. 하지만 산업화에 따라 발생하는 산업부산물 또는 폐기물의 발생량이 점차 증가하고 있다. 일부 산업부산물은 재활용되고 있지만 대부분의 폐기물은 매립되는 실정이다. 이에 따라 산업폐기물 처리를 위한 다양한 방안이 검토되고 있으나 경제성과 환경성을 고려한 기술은 구축되어 있지 않다. 따라서 본 연구에서는 제지산업과 화력발전산업에서 발생하는 제지애시, 플라이애시를 활성화하여 적용한 활성분체와 세라믹섬유를 동시 혼입한 콘크리트의 재료성능을 검토하고자 한다. 애시를 분쇄과정에서 활성화시켜 수화도를 높여 물성을 향상시켰으며 동시에 콘크리트의 균열 저감을 위해 세라믹섬유를 동시 혼입하였다. 활성분체 및 세라믹섬유의 재료성능을 검증하기 위하여 KS 규격에 의거하여 원주형 콘크리트 공시체를 제작하였으며 슬럼프 및 재령 28일 압축강도를 측정하였다. 활성분체 플라이애시 20%, 제지애시 10% 혼입 콘크리트에서 활성분체 무혼입 콘크리트 압축강도의 90% 이상으로 나타난 것으로 확인하였다.

This study describes behavioral characteristics of Korean population over twenty years old in a variety of activities of daily living by analyzing the raw data of the time use survey provided by Statistics Korea (KOSTAT). Seven activities and forty four sub-activities of daily living were selected for analysis : personal care, employment, household care, family care, voluntary work and community participation, social life, recreation and leisure, and travel. In order to quantitatively understand how Korean adults spend their time for a day and how their lifestyle changes over time, we collected the time recorded by 3,673 respondents in three surveys over the past ten years (in 1999, 2004, and 2009). Then, we performed analysis of variance to compare the behavioral characteristics by user age and gender based on the mean time of each activity. The differences in behavior among user groups and over time could be used to design ergonomic products and services based on user experience, especially for universal design of housing and transportation facilities.

Centrifugal casting is suitable for producing hollow-products using centrifugal force. Bush type metal bearings are the key parts that facilitate the rotational movement of various machinery. Metal bearings produced by conventional centrifugal casting machines show rotational imbalance. Therefore, after injecting a large amount of material, the product's precision is secured in the secondary processing. Rotational imbalance is caused by the force acting on the rotary disc plate. In order to minimize rotational imbalance, NASTRAN was used for the optimal design and structural analysis. It was concluded that the rotating plate of the conventional centrifugal casting machine should be prevented from tilting. For this purpose, the location & thickness of the stiffeners were obtained through the optimum design. In the conventional centrifugal casting machine, both ends of the product are lower in temperature than the center part, so internal stress occurs. This solves this problem by inserting a heating coil into the rotating plate.
