The purpose of this study was to develop a standardized scale to diagnostic life planning in late adolescence. A preliminary 32 item scale was developed through a literature review & a survey. 896 people responded to an online survey using the preliminary scale. A series of test, such as test-retest, item-to-total correlation, factor analysis and Cronbach' ${\alpha}$ reliability were conducted using the survey data and a scale comprising 31 items was constructed finally. The diagnostic scale for life planning in late Adolescence consisted of seven factors : (1) complete growth minds (2) life- plan (3) variety experiences (4) close relationships (5) management of healthy body (6) practical finance-plans (7) active preparation of future job. The scale is useful as a guideline for managing life of the late Adolescence. And it is helpful to them to make plan for the better life.

A commercial CFD code is used to compute the 3-D viscous flow field within the impeller o( a centrifugal pump. Several preliminary numerical calculations are carried out to determine the influence of the parameters such as the grid systems, the numerical schemes, the turbulence models and the shape of the vaneless diffusers at the design flow rate. The results of the preliminary study are used for the calculation of the off-design flow conditions. The circumferentially averaged results such as the radial and tangential velocities, the exit flow angle, the slip factor, the static pressure and the total pressure are compared with the experimental data at the impeller exit to discuss the influence of the prescribed parameters.

We have performed our first cosmological hydrodynamic simulation using the recently developed SPH+GOPTM code that includes radiative cooling/heating, star formation, and supernova feedback. Here we present preliminary results from the simulation $3.4{\times}10^4M_{\odot}$, thus sub-galactic structures, such as satellite galaxies and globular clusters around a host galaxy, can be resolved with more than hundred particles. We follow formation and evolution of the sub-galactic structures in view of their star formation history, merging/accretion rate, and origins.

A preliminary design procedure for a multi-stage axial compressor is developed, which is based on the stage-stacking method. It determines the flow coefficient which gives rise to the design conditions required such as pressure ratio, mass flow rate and rotational speed for a given specific mass flow rate at inlet to a compressor. With this flow coefficient, blade radii, every stage and compressor performance characterics such as stage pressure ratio, adiabatic efficiency etc. are calculated by stacking each stage performance characteristics. It is shown that there is an optimum number of stage which results in the maximum of compressor overall efficiency for a given specific mass flow rate at inlet to a compressor. A test design was tried for three different geometric design constraints, and comparison with a previous study shows that present procedure could be used reliably in determining the number of compressor stage in preliminary design stage.

A simple preliminary analysis is often useful to check a validity of design alternatives before the detailed analysis phase in the viewpoint of efficiency. This paper describes a preliminary analysis procedure for the selection among basket design candidates for the spent fuel shipping cask of Korean standard nuclear power plant. As the cask should maintain the structural integrity in hypothetical accident condition, the case of 9 m drop is significantly considered as the worst scenario among the accident conditions in structural design viewpoint in this paper. As basket design options, totally four different types are considered and analyzed in the point of structural integrity at drop impact and weldability for fabrication. As a result, an insertion round plate type with densely spaced supports turns out to be the best in both of the viewpoints, though the weld plate type shows a bit more design margin.

As a secondary stage of the liquid rocket engine development test, turbopump-gas generator powerpack tests are being performed. The schematics of the test hardware and the test facility for the TP+GG coupled test are presented. The results of a preliminary test results for the verification of the propellant supply system of the test facility are also presented. Based on the preliminary tests results, the verification of the propellants supply systems of the facility system was performed.

The braking hose in the automotive hydraulic braking system exhibits the complicated anisotropic large deformation while its movable end is moving along the cyclic path according to the steering and bump/rebound motions of vehicle. The complicated large deformation may cause not only the interference with other adjacent automotive parts but also the durability problem resulting in the fatal microcraking. In this regard, the design of high-durable braking hose with the interference-free layout becomes a hot issue in the automotive industry. However, since it has been traditionally relied on the cost-/time-consuming trial and error experiments, the cost- and time-effective optimum design method that can replace the experiment is highly desirable. Meanwhile, the hose deformed configuration and fatigue life are different for different hose cyclic paths, so that their characteristic investigation becomes an important preliminary research subject. As a preliminary step for developing the optimum design methodology, we in this study investigate the hose deformed configuration and the fatigue life for four representative hose cyclic paths.

Purpose: The purpose of the study was to develop a knowledge scale of risk factors for fall among community-dwelling older adults. Further, the validity and reliability of the scale was developed. Methods: A preliminary scale was developed through content validity by five experts and targeted subjects using the CVI (Content Validity Index). Following the establishment of content validity, the scale was used with 359 community-dwelling older adults to further establish both validity and reliability of the scale. Specifically, construct validity using known-group comparison technique, and reliability using Cronbach's ${\alpha}$ were established. Results: After content validity testing, 44 preliminary items were selected. Construct validity was established by known group-comparison, in which scores between the fall and no fall groups were compared. The Cronbach's ${\alpha}$ of the final scale was .83. Conclusion: Reliability and validity of the scale were confirmed. This tool may be used for measuring knowledge of fall risk factor for the community-dwelling older adults.

In this study the Ayurvedic formulation Dasamularista was studied for its preliminary pharmacological properties using laboratory mice. Dasamularista showed a decrease in food intake and stool formation, while the water content of stool and water intake was higher and the volume of the urine was less. Dasamularista in a slight extent reduced the intestinal motility. This constipating effect was further supported by the significant anti-diarrhoeal property of the formulation in castor oil induced dairrhoea. The tested formulation markedly increased the latent period of diarrhoea and reduced the purging index value. Dasamularista did not alter the acetic acid induced abdominal writhing. Significant reduction on the onset of sleeping time and increased duration of sleep was observed in pentobarbital induced sleeping time test.

A preliminary in vitro acid neutralizing capacity test of twelve traditional Ayurvedic antacids were performed in this study. Five traditional preparations of ash of conch shell, ash of oyster, ash of pearl, limestone, and ash of cowrie showed high acid neutralizing capacity similar to standard antacid combination of $Al(OH)_3\;and\;Mg(OH)_2$. Among these the ash of conch shell found the highest acid neutralizing capacity. The ash of tamarind and ash of Achyranthus aspera showed moderate acid neutralizing capacity. The acid neutralizing capacity of red ochre; ash of iron; mixture of niter, alum and ammonium chloride; saltpeter; and ash of mica found below the USP 23 limit.
