The objective of this study is to analyze the utilization patterns of other region inpatients in general hospitals located in Seoul area. For the analysis, the study utilize the nationwide data on '2008 Survey of Patients' of Ministry of Health & Welfare. The statistical methodology used in the study is the logistic regression model. This study has three major findings. First, the significant affecting sociodemographic factors in selecting general hospitals located in Seoul area was sex, age, type of payment and inpatients residence region. Second, compared to other disease groups, the inpatients on both 'congenital malformation, deformity and chromosomal abnormalities' and 'neoplasm' groups are more likely to utilize general hospitals in Seoul area. Furthermore, in 'neoplasm' disease group, inpatients with 'bones and articular cartilage malignant neoplasm' are more likely to utilize general hospitals in Seoul area. Finally, hospitals with more than 1,000 beds was chief factor in selecting Seoul-based hospitals by other region inpatients. In conclusion, the study showed that other region inpatients are more likely to utilize general hospitals located in Seoul area in case of severe disease, rare case and surgical case. Therefore, central and local authority is required to monitor local hospitals on quality of the medical service as well as support them to establish specialized medical centers by providing human and physical resources.

The 40.8-MHz VHF coherent scatter ionospheric radar, located in South Korea (Gyeryong, $36.18^{\circ}N$, $127.14^{\circ}E$), has been operating since December 2009 to investigate ionosphere E- and F-region field-aligned irregularities (FAIs) of mid-latitude. During the observation, we found E- and F-region FAIs appeared frequently: continuous echoes during the post-sunrise period and Quasi-Periodic (QP) echoes at nighttime for E region ; strong post-sunset and pre-sunrise FAIs for F region. The characteristics of E- and F-region FAIs are presented in terms of seasonal and local time variations of occurrence during December 2009 to August 2012. In addition, to investigate the correlation with geomagnetic activity to FAIs occurrence, we compared K-index variations to local time occurrence. It is worth to note our occurrence result since long term observation over several years in the mid-latitude has not yet been carried out.

A pollen analytical study of sediment sequences collected from Yongneup moor (sampling point: $38^{\circ}$12'57.4" N, $120^{\circ}$7'30.2" E) was conducted to understand the vegetation history in the mountainous region of the central Korean peninsula. Carbon dating was carried out to measure five successive samples obtained from the bottom at a depth of 180 cm to the surface. The Yongneup moor sediment revealed four main local pollen zones; that is, four past vegetation phases as follows: Local pollen zone I: Quercus-Pinus zone; estimated age, 5,900-4,800 calibrated years (cal) before present (BP); vegetation type, cool-temperate central/montane deciduous broad-leaved forest. Local pollen zone II: Pinus-Abies-Quercus zone; estimated age, 4,800-3,400 cal BP; vegetation type, cool-temperate northern/alti-montane mixed coniferous and deciduous broad-leaved forest. Local pollen zone III: Quercus-Pinus-Abies zone; estimated age, 3,400-400 cal BP; vegetation type: cool-temperate central/montane deciduous broad-leaved forest. Local pollen zone IV: Pinus-Quercus zone; estimated age, 400-present cal BP; vegetation type, cool-temperate central/montane mixed deciduous broad-leaved and coniferous forest. It was confirmed that subalpine coniferous forests had expanded to the mountainous region of the central Korean peninsula during the period from 4,800-3,400 cal BP and thereafter deciduous forests dominated by Q. mongolica were established. Notably, secondary forests dominated by P. densiflora developed in the lower part of the mountainous region of the central Korean peninsula about 400 cal BP due to human interference.

본 논문에서는 불균등 대비 영상에서 국소 영역별 대비개선과 문턱치 평면의 쌍선형 보간을 이용한 효과적인 적응 이진화 방법을 제안하였다. 제안한 방법에서는 먼저 영상을 국소 영역으로 나누고, 영역별로 흐리거나 대비가 낮은 부분의 명도차를 증대시켜 전체적으로 대비를 개선한 후, 대비 개선된 국소 영역별 명도 분포로부터 해당 영역의 최적 문턱치를 구하였다. 국소 영역간에 이웃하는 문턱치들을 쌍선형 보간하여 전역적으로 영역별 문턱치들간의 불연속성을 없앰으로써 불균등 대비 영상에 대해서도 관심 영역이나 문자 부분에서의 불연속을 줄이도록 하였다. 불균등 대비를 갖는 일반문서 및 PCB나 웨이퍼상의 문자 영상을 제안한 방법과 기존 방법으로 이진화한 영상들로부터 문자들을 추출하고, 동일 조건하에서 같은 역전파 신경회로망으로 인식 실험하여 제안한 방법의 실효성을 확인하였다.

Background: The purpose of this study was to explore the relationship between the local extinction index and total medical service utilization. Methods: A fixed effects model in panel analysis was performed for the 228 administrative districts in Korea. The statistical yearbook on the usage of medical services by region and Korean Statistical Information Service data were used from 2010 to 2019 for analysis. Medical service utilization was represented by the number of visits day, the number of inpatient days, and medical charges. Control variables were selected by using an Anderson model. The local extinction index was calculated using resident registration population data. Results: Descriptive statistics showed that the number of areas at risk of extinction increased from 61 to 95 for the study years. In addition, the number of visits, the number of inpatient days, and medical charges all increased during the study years. After controlling for variables affecting medical service utilization and doing a panel fixed effects model, the result suggested that a one-step increase in the local extinction index was significantly associated with a 12.29% decrease in medical charges of inpatients, a 7.33% decrease in medical charge of outpatient, a 5.21% decrease in the number of inpatient day, and a 5.54% decrease in the number of visits day. Conclusion: This study showed that the higher the region's extinction risks, the higher the region's total medical service utilization. The results of this study suggested that there was a disparity in medical service utilization between areas at risk of extinction and areas not at risk of extinction, so measures should be taken to address this disparity.

Comparing with the large containment, the gas can not flow freely within the local compartment due to the small volume of the compartment in case of serious accident, which affects the hydrogen flow distribution, and it will determines the location where high concentration occurs in compartment. In this paper, hydrogen distribution and possible hydrogen risk in the vessel under the different conditions are investigated. The results show that when the initial gas momentum is increased, the ability of gas enters into the upper region of the vessel will be strengthened, and the hydrogen volume fraction in the upper region of the vessel is higher. Comparing with horizontal source direction, when source direction is vertically towards upper space, hydrogen is more likely to accumulate in the upper region of the vessel. With the increasing of steam mass flow, the dilution effect of steam on the hydrogen volume fraction will be strengthened, while the pressure in the vessel is also increased. When steam flow is decreased, the hydrogen explosion risk is higher in the vessel. The experiment data can provide technical support for the validation of the CFD software and the mitigation of hydrogen risk in the containment compartment.

In this paper, we propose a probabilistic tabu search strategy for function optimization. It is composed of two procedures, one is Basic search procedure that plays a role in local search, and the other is Restarting procedure that enables to diversify search region. In basic search procedure, we use Belief space and Near region to create neighbors. Belief space is made of high-rank neighbors to effectively restrict searching space, so it can improve searching time and local or global searching capability. When a solution is converged in a local area, Restarting procedure works to search other regions. In this time, we use Probabilistic Tabu Strategy(PTS) to adjust parameters such as a reducing rate, initial searching region etc., which makes enhance the performance of searching ability in various problems. In order to show the usefulness of the proposed method, the PTS is applied to the minimization problems such as De Jong functions, Ackley function, and Griewank functions etc., the results are compared with those of GA or EP.

The local heat flux of spray cooling in the film boiling region were experimentally investigated for the spray region of $D_{max}$ = $0.005{\sim}0.03m^3/(m^2s)$. A twin-fluid full cone spray nozzle was employed for the experiment and the distributions of droplet flow rates were obtained for air-water full cone sprays. A stainless steel block was cooled down from initial temperature of about $800^{\circ}C$ by full cone spray. In the region near the stagnation point, it was found that the experimental data are in good agreement with the results predicted from the correlations between the local heat transfer and the local droplet flow rate proposed in the previous report. However, it was found that the experimental data of $D_r$ > $0.01m^3/(m^2s)$ are a little smaller than the results predicted from the correlations.

This study was designed to standardize the recipes of native local foods in Gijang region such as 'Miyeokseolchi', 'Molseolchi', 'Gijangumuk' and 'Seokbakji' and analyze their nutrients. The test recipe for each food was prepared according to the information obtained from the personal interview of Gijang natives and then applied to sensory evaluation. After that, CAN pro 3.0 was used for the nutritional evaluation. The results are as follows: Both Miyeokseolchi and Molseolchi were preferred with soybean sprouts added but Miyeokseolchi with fermented red pepper paste added. Gijangumuk was preferred with dissolved ceylon moss added, not filtered. Seokbakji was preferred with salt-fermented gizzard shad added. Nutrient analysis was performed according to the established standard recipe. In general, it appeared that energy content was low and amino acid contents such as glutamate, aspartic acid, leuicine and arginine were high. Major fatty acids in Miyeokseolchi and Molseolchi were a linoleic acid and Seokbakji has a palmitic acid and EPA.
