Recently, various construction projects are invested with plenty capital, manpower and resources. The advanced methods of the construction management is introduced to Korea. However, the cases which get involved in excessive cost frequently occur. We can explain it means that the cost management in the entire phases and the risk factors in its works has not been done yet as expected. Thus, it is necessary to unearth risk factors relative to cost management and analyse them for preventing cost-increasing and the success of projects. In this point of view, this study aims to identify the risk factors of the cost management focused on pre-construction stages from the perspective of construction management which is possible to take part in the whole phases and works in cost management. Also, the impact priority and grade of risk factors to cost-increasing are evaluated by using FMEA.

The satellite thermal control H/W composed of two parallel channels working for heat pipe (HP) and phase change material (PCM) is suggested for the high heat dissipating component which works intermittently with short duty. In a limited point of view, the HP-PCM device is a kind of off-the-shelf component that requires no dedicated configuration and thermal designs to PCM. Therefore, it can be used with less impact on the program cost and schedule different from most of the PCM applications. In present study the typical honeycomb structure radiator applying the HP-PCM device is designed and the detail thermal math model is developed for numerical analyses. The result comparison between without and with PCM shows that the HP-PCM device redistributes the peak heat around the whole mission period through the alternate melting and freezing of PCM, and, as a result, the maximum and minimum temperatures are effectively alleviated. The drawback of PCM application due to low thermal conductivity can be successfully resolved by means of parallel arrangement of HP channel.

First, the level of satisfaction on class was high and the class was evaluated with significant contemplation. Second, it has been collecting a variety of learning materials to understand, interpret and improve the ability to solve practical problems in the process of actively reconstruct their own knowledge structure. It also gave a positive impact on the creative and divergent thinking to accelerate the promotion of autonomy. Third, opinions about teamwork, sharing your thoughts with colleagues point is that you can see yourself in other people's positions were evaluated as positive effects.

Plasticizers play roles in increasing plasticity or fluidity during mixing. Representative plasticizers are DOS, DOA, IDP and BTTN. In particular, BTTN is an energy plasticizer that helps propellant performance and is widely used. However these compounds are sensitive relatively. So, in order to develop insensitive energetic plasticizer, synthesis of one of the derivatives of triazole, 4,5-bis (azido methyl)-(1-butyl)-1,2,3-triazole (1-DABTR), was studied. Also, the compound was characterized by NMR, IR spectroscopy, and physicochemical properties such as glass transition temperature, melting point, decomposition temperature, density, viscosity and impact sensitivity were measured. In addition, the heats of formation (${\Delta}H_f$) of 1-DABTR was also calculated using Gaussian 09.

In the fast block matching algorithm. search patterns of different shapes or sizes and the distribution of motion vectors have a large impact on both the searching speed and the image qualify. In this paper, we propose a new fast block matching algorithm using the flat-hexagon search pattern that ate solved disadvantages of the diamond pattern search algorithm(DS) and the hexagon-based search algorithm(HEXBS). Our proposed algorithm finds mainly the motion vectors that not close to the center of search window using the flat-hexagon search pattern. Through experiments, compared with the DS and HEXBS, the proposed f)at-hexagon search algorithm(FHS) improves about $0.4{\sim}21.3%$ in terms of average number of search point per motion vector estimation and improves about $0.009{\sim}0.531dB$ in terms of PSNR(Peak Signal to Noise Ratio).

Based on the DGPS radio wave measurement in the coast of the yellow-sea, south-sea and east-sea, the DGPS service regions in the korean coastal ferry route are analyzed in this paper. The impact of obstacles on the propagation due to the archipelago and island regions are measured and analyzed in the point of service region. The ocean-based DGPS reference stations provide the wide DGPS ocean service regions with signal strength more than $40dB{\mu}V/m$ and signal-to-noise ratio more than 10 dB. Based on the overlapping of the service regions between the DGPS reference stations, the DGPS services with good quality are provided in the coastal ferry route segments. In case of regions where the propagation obstacles are scattered, the increasingly good service can be provided under conditions of output power reinforcement and antenna efficiency enhancement.

In this paper, the adaptive MPSAM is suggested in order to analyze and improve problems caused by the case of the impact of delay waves on Pilot Symbol Assisted Modulation (PSAM), a singular Pilot method. PSAM predicts and compensates amplitude and phases caused on fading channels, using the Pilot Symbol. In addition, the Basic method is not only analyzed but also grafted onto the suggested method properly; therefore, the performance could be improved. Comparing to the Basic method, the BER performance can be distinguished in case that the level of delay on delay waves with the suggested method goes below 0.7. On the other hand, the BER performance can be inferior due to a considerable effect of the adjacent symbol in the event that the level of delay on delay waves is worse. However, the BER performance is rather improved on the point where the level of delay on delay waves is serious because the Basic method uses reciprocal compensation. Hence, stable improvement can be expected in all areas which receive the influence of delay waves within one symbol once grafted onto the suggested method.

In this paper, we introduce an improved algorithm for computing matrix triple product that commonly arises in primal-dual optimization method. In computing $P=AHA^{t}$, we devise a single pass algorithm that exploits the block diagonal structure of the matrix H. This one-phase scheme requires fewer floating point operations and roughly half the memory of the generic two-phase algorithm, where the product is computed in two steps, computing first $Q=HA^{t}$ and then P=AQ. The one-phase scheme achieved speed-up of 2.04 on Intel Itanium II platform over the two-phase scheme. Based on memory latency and modeled cache miss rates, the performance improvement was evaluated through performance modeling. Our research has impact on performance tuning study of complex sparse matrix operations, while most of the previous work focused on performance tuning of basic operations.

Objective: This in vitro study aimed to evaluate the effects of different whitening toothpastes on a composite resin during at-home bleaching with 10% carbamide peroxide. Materials and Methods: Sixty samples (7 mm × 2 mm) were used for color and roughness analyses, while another 60 samples (3 mm × 2 mm) were utilized to assess microhardness. The factors analyzed included toothpaste, for which 5 options with varying active agents were tested (distilled water; conventional toothpaste; whitening toothpaste with abrasive agents; whitening toothpaste with abrasive and chemical agents; and whitening toothpaste with abrasive, chemical, and bleaching agents). Brushing and application of whitening gel were performed for 14 days. Surface microhardness (SMH), surface roughness (Ra), and color (ΔL^*, Δa^*, Δb, ΔE^*_ab, and ΔE₀₀) were analyzed. The Ra and SMH data were analyzed using mixed generalized linear models for repeated measures, while the color results were assessed using the Kruskal-Wallis and Dunn tests. Results: Between the initial and final time points, all groups demonstrated significant increases in Ra and reductions in SMH. No significant differences were found between groups for SMH at the final time point, at which all groups differed from the distilled water group. Conventional toothpaste exhibited the lowest Ra, while whitening toothpaste with abrasive agent had the highest value. No significant differences were observed in ΔL^*, Δa^*, and Δb. Conclusions: While toothpaste composition did not affect the color stability and microhardness of resin composite, combining toothbrushing with whitening toothpaste and at-home bleaching enhanced the change in Ra.
