Interfacial crack problems between fiber and matrix in composite materials are discussed. A series of interfacial crack initiation and propagation experiments are conducted using the biaxial loading device for various mode-mixes. Normal crack opening displacement (NCOD) is measured near crack front by a crack opening interferometry and used for extracting fracture parameters. From mixed mode interfacial crack initiation experiments, large increase in toughness with shear components is observed. Initial velocity of crack propagation is very dependent upon the mode-mixes. It increased with positive mode-mix due to the increase of stress singularities ahead of crack front and decreased with negative mode-mix resulting from the increase of the degree of compressive stress behind the crack front. Crack propagation was less accelerated with positive mode-mix than the negative mode-mix.

As the information society matures, an analysis on possible outputs of internet usage is needed. Thus, this study was peformed in order to understand the utility cognition and negative outputs of internet users. The method used in this study was a web-based questionnaire that was administered to the internet users. Five hundred married men and women were analyzed with a factor and a multiple regression analysis. Results were as follows: First, many kinds of internet usages - information searching, internet shopping, electronic mail, instant messaging, and decision-making dependent on internet information - were differentiated with age. Second, the altitude about the internet was an important explanatory variable in the types of internet usage. Third, negative outputs of internet usage were great in terms of information resource management and unbalanced scheduling in daily time spent. Fourth, utility cognition was affected by qualitative elements on internet usage more than the quantitative ones.

Necessary and sufficient conditions, under which there exists (at least) a sequence of vectors of real numbers for which the distribution function (d.f.) of any vector of extreme order statistics converges to a non-degenerate limit, are derived. The interesting thing is that these conditions solely depend on the univariate marginals. Moreover, the limit splits into the product of the limit univariate marginals if all the bivariate marginals of the trivariate d.f., from which the sample is drawn, is of negative quadrant dependent random variables (r.v.'s). Finally, all these results are stated for the multivariate extremes with arbitrary dimensions.

We have studied on response time of the fringe-field switching (FFS) TFT-LCD using the LCs with negative dielectric anisotropy related to rubbing angle. Simulation and experimental results shows that when a rubbing angle approached $45^{\circ}$, a slope of voltage-dependent curve is decreased such that the operation voltage is increased, however the whole response characteristic between inter-gray levels have a trend to be fast.

This study was performed to investigate the antimicrobial effects of hetero-chitosans and their oligosaccharides against three Gram-negative bacteria and five Gram-positive bacteria. Nine classes of hetero-chitosan oligosaccharides consisted of partially deacetylated chitosans; 90％, 75％, and 50％ deacetylated chitosans. Based on molecular weight, they were prepared using an ultrafiltration membrane reactor system. Seventy-five percent deacetylated chitosan showed the highest antimicrobial acitivity as compared with the 90％ and 50％ deacetylated chitosan, and the activity was dependent on their molecular weights. It was apparent that the growth of Gram-negative bacteria is less inhibited in the presence of the heterochitosans and their oligosaccharides than Gram-positive bacteria. These results revealed that the antimicrobial effects of hetero-chitosans and their oligosaccharides depend on the degree of deacetylation, and their molecular weights.

In this paper new results are obtained for multivariate processes which help us to identify weak negative orthant dependent(WNOD) structures among hitting times of the processes. Furthermore, an approach to derive dependence properties among the processes is proposed and a partial solution to the question tat what kinds of the dependence properties, when they are imposed on processes, are reflected as analogous properties of corresponding hitting times is give. Examples are given to illustrate these concepts.

The study is to clarify the relationship among the positive and negative recognition of stress and physical and psychological abuse and neglect aiming at getting the material. They are to prevent elder abuse at the main care worker for frail and dementia elderly. The degree of fitness to the data where positive and negative recognition of main care worker was located as dependent variable. The casual model in which main care worker was located as independent variable. The degree of fitness of casual model was GFI=0.772, CFI=0.795, RESEA=0.067. Among path coefficient included in the previous model, three of figures going toward three of abuse to the elder were statistically significant.

With the wide spread of direct current (DC) electric railroads in Korea, the stray currents from negative return rails become a pending problem to the safety of nearby underground infrastructures, such as gas pipelines, water distribution lines, heat pipelines, POF cables, etc. The mitigation of such interference, however, is mainly dependent on stray current drainage bond methods, which connect the underground metallic structures to the negative feeder cables attached to the rails with diodes (polarized drainage) or thyristors (forced drainage). Despite some merits of these methods, they increase the total amount of stray currents from rails and cause other interference problems. In this paper, we summarize the domestic conditions of stray current interference and describe a conceptual design of other mitigation methods for such interference.

In order to study the dielectric properties of the oriental lacquer films, three different films have been prepared differing purification and curing procedures. Dielectric properties were measured in the frequency range of 1 Hz to 105 Hz at various temperatures between - 50 ℃ and 150 ℃. The DEA using 1 Hz showed that glass transition and secondary relaxation temperatures of oriental lacquer film are very time dependent. In addition, the frequency-independent negative peak between 25 ℃ and 45 ℃ was observed, which could represent the formation of crosslink by laccase enzyme during heating. On the contrary, the high temperature cured film showed a hardly noticeable negative peak at the temperature range. The relationship between thermodynamic properties and chemical structures has been discussed based on the analysis of the dielectric relaxation behavior using the Cole-Cole plot and the dielectric relaxation intensity.

As smartphone use is increasing within the middle-aged population, society should pay closer attention to the mental health problems associated with smartphone addiction. This study examines the possibility that depression, anxiety, and ADHD can be interpreted not only as negative aspects, but also as positive aspects, in an addiction-related individual. We used habitual and addictive smartphone behavior as the dependent variables; anxiety, ADHD, depression, and habitual smartphone use as the independent variables; and self-control as a moderating variable. Depression and ADHD in smartphone users were found to be associated with higher levels of addictive smartphone use. Anxiety was having negative effect on addictive smartphone use. However, habitual smartphone use didn't significantly affect addictive smartphone use. Further analysis indicated that depression, anxiety, and ADHD have mediating effects on habitual smartphone use. This study confirmed that psychological factors in adults, as well as habitual/addictive smartphone use and self-control, significantly influence smartphone overdependence.
