Purpose: The purpose of this study was to measure the fatigue of operating room nurses and examine factors contributing to their fatigue. Methods: The subjects of this study were 115 nurses who worked in operating rooms of three hospitals. Data were collected from September 15, 2009 to September 30, 2009. Fatigue and job stress were measured by using the Symptom's Fatigue Scale and the job stress measurement tools in operating room nurses. Results: The mean score of fatigue level was $3.10{\pm}0.61$. We analyzed fatigue according to characteristics of subjects and found that there were significant differences in marital status, number of children and sleeping hours in general characteristics. Career, daily participation hours in the surgery relating to job related characteristics. Significant positive correlations were found between job stress and fatigue(r=.233, p= .012). Three significant variables influencing fatigue of operation rooms nurses were job stress, daily participation hours in the surgery, and sleeping hours (Adj. $R^2$=0.284, F=4.773, p<.001). Conclusion: An integrative care program that takes job stress, daily participation hours in the surgery and sleeping hours into consideration is essential to reduce fatigue in operating room nurses.

This study conducted an empirical analysis of the effects of job characteristics on work-family conflict relation and quality of life, as well as moderating effects in accordance with operation type, by targeting 245 dietitian/cooks working for contract foodservice companies. The results of this study are as follows. First, the autonomy and feedback had negative (-) effects on work-family conflict while functional diversity had positive (+) effects on work-family conflict. Job identity and job importance had no relation with work-family conflict. Second, work-family conflict had negative (-) effects on job satisfaction, work-family relation, job support, general happiness, and job environment while having positive (+) effects on job stress. Third, in all paths except for the path with effects of work-family conflict on job stress, there were no differences between the group of shops operating 365 days and the group of shops operating 5 days a week. It would be helpful to the effective operation of human resources by emphasizing the necessity of differentiated management for companies with shops operating 365 days and shops operating 5 days a week, as well as managing employees' job characteristic factors, work-family conflict, and even quality of life.

This study analyzed the influence of firing biogas on the performance and operation of a gas/steam turbine combined system. A reference gas/steam turbine combined system, designed with biogas fuel(57% volumetric methane) was set up and off-design simulation was made to investigate operating characteristics when a couple of operating schemes to mitigate turbine blade overheating were applied. Performance at base-load operation using each scheme was compared and part load operation using the variable inlet guide vane was analysed. Also, differences in operating characteristics and performance caused by changes in the methane content of biogas and ambient temperature were examined.

The purpose of this study was to get the design guidelines of the operating department in army hospital. New A.F.M.H. is now under construction but army hospital's characteristics are not reflected. This research is accomplished through an understanding of the characteristics of operating department in army hospitals by analyzing the plans and behavior survey of some A.F.M.H. This study attempts to examine the current status of domestic army medical center and to establish the design guideline of the operating department of the army hospitals.

This study evaluates the approximation errors of the existing linearized equation for a servovalve nonlinear flowrate characteristic. At first, the errors are evaluated on flowrate/pressure characteristics diagrams. Subsequently, they are investigated with time response simulation results for several hydraulic control systems. To enable systematic evaluation of computational error, the authors propose three kinds of equations with restructured forms of the existing linearized equation. As results of the evaluations, it is ascertained that comparatively good computational accuracy can be achieved with the existing linearized equation when both an operating point for the linearized equation and operating range of the hydraulic system stay near the flowrate axis of the flowrate/pressure characteristics diagram. In addition, the results show that comparatively big computational error may occur when operating range of a hydraulic system stay apart from the flowrate axis of the flowrate/pressure characteristics diagram.

In this study, we investigated operating characteristics of natural gas fuel processor for polymer electrolyte membrane fuel cells (PEMFCs). The fuel processor consists of a natural gas reformer, a water-gas shift reactor, a heat-exchanger and a burner, in which the overall integrated volume is exactly(exceptionally) small, namely, about 10L except outer insulation. The producted hydrogen is $1Nm^3/hr$ and the maximum thermal efficiency is ${\sim}76%$(low heating value) at full operating load. A compact and highly efficient $1Nm^3/hr$ class natural gas fuel processor was developed at UNISON is an advantage for application in residential PEMFCs co-generation systems.

During severe emergencies which result in insufficient generation to meet load, an automatic load shedding method considering the spinning and operating reserve can establish the optimum system operation. This paper presents methods and results of a study on the optimum operating scheme with spinning and operating reserve power in case of outage of large generator units to prevent frequency decay and continue stable operation. This study covers following three parts 1) Analysis of spinning reserve characteristics 2) Determination of operating reserve requirements 3) Development of the optimum load shedding programs By this study the optimum system operating method was recommended for reliable operation of power system.

The objective of this study is to predict the etching characteristics using spray characteristics for the optimization on the etching process of Lead-Frame. The etching characteristics such as etching factor, uniformity were investigated on the actual operating conditions. The correlation between the etching characteristics and the spray ones obtained by measurement were analyzed to simulate the etching characteristics according to actual conditions of lead-frame etching process. These conditions of lead-frame process were spray pressure, distance from nozzle tip to substrate, pipe pitch, and nozzle pitch. To improve the etching characteristics in the lead-frame process, effects of the various operating conditions should be understood in detail. The spray characteristics obtained by experiment using PDA system were simulated by the Monte-Carlo method. The etching process model was coded by Java language. It was found that simulation results generally agreed well with the measured results of etching characteristics in lead-frame etching process. The optimal operating parameters were successfully found under variable conditions.

In this paper, algeration of electical characteristics is analyzed when the operating temperature of MOSFET, BJT and CMOS/BiCMOS inverter is lowered from 300K to 77K. As the operating temperature is lowered, electric characteristics of MOSFET are enhanced generally but, those of bipolar transistor are degraded because current gain is reduced by BGN(Band Gap Narrowing) effect. For the inverter considered in this work, switching characteristics of PSA-BiCMOS inverter are enhanced by the electrical characteristics enhancement of MOSFET when the operating temperature is reduced to 200K, while under 200K, those of PSA-BiCMOS inverter are degraded because the degradation of BJT impacts on the inverter circuit.

This paper aims at investigating the operating-mode characteristics of two-module Thyristor Controlled Series Compensator (TCSC) as an equivalent of the multi-module TCSC in a simple three-phase power transmission system. The load flow program is developed to analyze the steady-state characteristics of two-module TCSC system and to find the thyristor firing angles for the required real power flow. The stability calculation program is developed with Poincare mapping theory. Simulation studies of the TCSC power transmission system using EMTP are performed to evaluate the transient characteristics of two-module TCSC as a real power flow controller and to rpove the results of the load flow calculation and the stability analysis. In the process of the study, the operating-mode characteristics of two-module TCSC are evaluated and compared to those of single-module TCSC.
