The purpose of this study was to investigate the furniture use pattern and needs for built-in furniture of apartment residents. The subjects were 289 housewives who live in apartment houses in Haeundae, Busan. The size of apartments was 60 $m^2$ or 85 $m^2$.The self-administered questionnaire was used. There was no any furniture pattern which can be categorized as the specific one. That is, each family has different kinds of furniture pattern in living room and master bedroom. Also, some subjects wanted to have builted-in furniture in master bedroom.

The gene encoding the extracellular medium-chain-length poly(3-hydroxyalkanoate) (MCL-PHA) depolymerase of Pseudomonas luteola Ml3-4, $phaZ_{plu}$, was cloned and analyzed. It was found to be 849 bp, with a deduced protein of 282 amino acids, and was revealed to have a typical leader peptide at its N terminus. The amino acid sequence of $PhaZ_{plu}$ revealed relatively low identity (69 to 72%) with those of other Pseudomonas MCL-PHA depolymerases. In comparison with the amino acid sequences of all available MCL-PHA depolymerases, the depolymerase was found to consist of three domains in sequential order; signal peptide, an N-terminal substrate binding domain, and a catalytic domain, indicating that $PhaZ_{plu}$ belongs to the type IV depolymerases family. The enzyme also contained Asn as an oxyanion hole amino acid.

In this study, the acceleration vector in each time step is assumed to be a mth order time polynomial. By using the initial conditions, satisfying the equation of motion at both ends of the time step and minimizing the square of the residual vector, the m+3 unknown coefficients are determined. The order of accuracy for this approach is m+1, and it has a very low dispersion error. Moreover, the period error of the new technique is almost zero, and it is considerably smaller than the members of the Newmark method. The proposed scheme has an appropriate domain of stability, which is greater than that of the central difference and linear acceleration techniques. The numerical tests highlight the improved performance of the new algorithm over the fourth-order Runge-Kutta, central difference, linear and average acceleration methods.

An asteroid specimen was collected from Jumunjin, Gangwon-do in the East Sea, Korea at a depth of 50 m using fishing nets on 26 May 2013. It was identified as Pteraster militaris (O.F. $M{\ddot{u}ller$, 1776) belonging to the family Pterasteridae of the order Velatida based on morphological characteristics. This species is usually distributed in the cold boreal zone around northern Pacific and Atlantic, and is distinctly distinguished from P. tesselatus which was reported in Korean fauna: body form, length ratio of arm to disc and surface of dorsal membrane.

A new marine gastrotrich species, Ptychostomella jejuensis n. sp. belonging to the family Thaumastodermatidae, is described on the basis of the specimens from subtidal sand bottom at about 6-7 m depth of Jeju Island, South Korea. Ptychostomella jejuensis n. sp. is distinguished from its congeneric species with smooth cuticular armature by the character combination: (1) small body up to about 160 ${\mu}m$ in length; (2) presence of knob-like cephalic tentacles; (3) absence of dorsal and ventral adhesive tubes; (4) bifid pedicles; (5) pyriform copulatory organ. Under scanning electron microscopy, numerous epidermal gland openings were observed in the new species, characteristically flanking a bristle. Taxonomic accounts on the affinities, some brief remarks on the epidermal gland openings and the cooccurrence with P. orientalis Lee and Chang, 2003 are also presented with detailed illustrations and scanning electron photomicrographs.

The alkali activation products of slag, fly ash C and fly ash F were investigated using compressive strength test and synchrotron x-ray diffraction. We propose that the predominantly amorphous geopolymer formed under ambient conditions is a disordered form of one of the ABC-6 group of zeolites, which includes poly-types such as hydroxycancrinite, hydroxysodalite, chabazite, levyne or fransinite.

We describe here the cDNA sequence and mRNA expression of a novel family of the antioxidant protein, peroxiredoxin, from the firefly, Pyracoetia ruin. The 555 bp cDNA sequence codes for a 185 amino acid protein with a calculated molecular mass of approximately 21 kDa. The deduced protein of P. rufa peroxiredoxin gene contains two conserved cysteine residues. Alignment of the deduced protein of P. rufa peroxiredoxin gene showed 71.1% protein sequenceidentity to known insect Drosophila melanogaster peroxiredoxin. Northern blot analysis revealed that the P. rufa peroxiredoxin is specifically expressed in the fat body of P. rufa larvae.

This study attempts to examine the average number of stored items of apartment residents composed of 4 family members and to compare the quantitative differences of the stored items according to the apartment size and the stage of life-cycle. The finding shows that the number of items stored in apartments increases as the size of apartments and the stag of life-cycle of husband and wife living in the apartments of more than 180$m^2$ increase approcimately twice, compared to those in the apartments of less than 83$m^2$. Therefore, the storage space in apartments should be designed more effectively considering the change of the stored items in relation to of the apartment size and their stage of life-cycle. This study suggests the specific design of the built-in closets for clothings, sheets, accessories and shoes based on the number of the items.

we consider the hp-version to solve non-constant coefficients elliptic equations $-div(a{\nabla}u)=f$ with Dirichlet boundary conditions on a bounded polygonal domain $\Omega$ in $R^2$. In [6], M. Suri obtained an optimal error-estimate for the hp-version: ${\parallel}u-u^h_p{\parallel}_{1,\Omega}{\leq}Cp^{(\sigma-1)}h^{min(p,\sigma-1)}{\parallel}u{\parallel}_{\sigma,\Omega}$. This optimal result follows under the assumption that all integrations are performed exactly. In practice, the integrals are seldom computed exactly. The numerical quadrature rule scheme is needed to compute the integrals in the variational formulation of the discrete problem. In this paper we consider a family $G_p=\{I_m\}$ of numerical quadrature rules satisfying certain properties, which can be used for calculating the integrals. Under the numerical quadrature rules we will give the variational form of our non-constant coefficients elliptic problem and derive an error estimate of ${\parallel}u-\tilde{u}^h_p{\parallel}_{1,\Omega}$.

One leptocephalus (TL 59.9 mm) from the family Ophichthidae collected from Jeju Island, Korea, was identified using morphological and molecular methods. Our ophichthid leptocephalus was identified as belonging to the genus Muraenichthys based on morphological characters: 157 myomeres; the origin of the dorsal fin located a little in front of the anus; a distinct melanophore present on the opercle; and six gut swellings present. An analysis of 886 base pairs of the 12S rRNA mtDNA sequences showed that our leptocephalus must be Muraenichthys gymnopterus, because its sequences were concordant with those of an adult M. gymnopterus (d=0.001) and next to those of Muraenichthys sp. leptocephalus (d=0.034). Here, we are the first to describe the morphological characteristics of the M. gymnopterus leptocephalus.
