Purpose : To examine the imaging findings of mucinous breast carcinoma and to evaluate the difference in these findings based on the histopathologic grade. Materials and Methods : We retrospectively analyzed the imaging features according to BI-RADS in 29 patients with surgically proven mucinous carcinoma. The histopathologic grade was classified as well-differentiated, moderately-differentiated and poorly-differentiated. Based on these criteria, the differences in imaging findings were statistically analyzed. Results : Mammography was available in 20 cases, which contained 17 mass lesions (85%) and 3 cases of normal findings. On ultrasonography (27 cases), mucinous carcinoma was observed as a mass with an oval shape (59.3%), a microlobulated margin (55.6%) or an inhomogeneous isoechogenicity (74.1%). On MRI (21 cases), mucinous carcinoma was commonly observed to have a lobular shape (76%), smooth margin (86%) or heterogeneous contrast-enhancement (61.9%). On the kinetic curve, there was a delayed wash-out pattern (52.3%). There were no significant differences in the imaging findings for each histopathologic grade except that a welldifferentiated tumor had an abrupt interface. Conclusion : A well-differentiated mucinous carcinoma tended to have an abrupt interface on ultrasonography, as compared with the moderately-differentiated one. Mucinous carcinoma showed a heterogeneous enhancement and a delayed washout kinetic curve pattern on dynamic MRI.

Most of flood protection walls built on the impingement in mountain rivers have been made of concrete. It may cause flood disasters because the smooth wall surface could increase flow velocity. In this study the hydraulic experiments was carried out to evaluate the effect of one side wall with rectangular vertical ribs on flow resistance in open channel. The ratio of the pitch between vertical ribs to its depth, ${\lambda}_{nv}$, was designed so that it include the so-called d type and k type roughness. The range of Froude number, $F_r$, based on hydraulic radius is 0.81~1.12. Flow resistance in the open channel with a rib sidewall depends on the interval length of each ribs and the flow discharge. Maximum flow resistance occurred when ${\lambda}_{nv}$ is 9. In the d type roughness which ${\lambda}_{nv}$ is less than 3, the flow resistance decreases with increase of flow discharge. In the k type roughness which ${\lambda}_{nv}$ is greater than 3, the flow resistance increases with increase of flow discharge. The increments of flow resistance are especially great when ${\lambda}_{nv}$ are 9 and 12. The resistance due to vertical rib is mostly by the shape resistance and the vertical rib on one sidewall of open channel affects on the flow resistance so that the equivalent roughness heights of vertical rib may occur in scale of flow depth. Therefore the vertical ribs may be used to reduce the flow velocity and to move the location of maximum flow velocity from the rib sidewall to the centerward in a cross section of channels.

Transparent amorphous oxide semiconductors such as a In-Ga-Zn-O (a-IGZO) have advantages for large area electronic devices; e.g., uniform deposition at a large area, optical transparency, a smooth surface, and large electron mobility >10 cm2/Vs, which is more than an order of magnitude larger than that of hydrogen amorphous silicon (a-Si;H).1) Thin film transistors (TFTs) that employ amorphous oxide semiconductors such as ZnO, In-Ga-Zn-O, or Hf-In-Zn-O (HIZO) are currently subject of intensive study owing to their high potential for application in flat panel displays. The device fabrication process involves a series of thin film deposition and photolithographic patterning steps. In order to minimize contamination, the substrates usually undergo a cleaning procedure using deionized water, before and after the growth of thin films by sputtering methods. The devices structure were fabricated top-contact gate TFTs using the a-IGZO films on the plastic substrates. The channel width and length were 80 and 20 um, respectively. The source and drain electrode regions were defined by photolithography and wet etching process. The electrodes consisting of Ti(15 nm)/Al(120 nm)/Ti(15nm) trilayers were deposited by direct current sputtering. The 30 nm thickness active IGZO layer deposited by rf magnetron sputtering at room temperature. The deposition condition is as follows: a rf power 200 W, a pressure of 5 mtorr, 10% of oxygen [O2/(O2+Ar)=0.1], and room temperature. A 9-nm-thick Al2O3 layer was formed as a first, third gate insulator by ALD deposition. A 290-nm-thick SS6908 organic dielectrics formed as second gate insulator by spin-coating. The schematic structure of the IGZO TFT is top gate contact geometry device structure for typical TFTs fabricated in this study. Drain current (IDS) versus drain-source voltage (VDS) output characteristics curve of a IGZO TFTs fabricated using the 3-layer gate insulator on a plastic substrate and log(IDS)-gate voltage (VG) characteristics for typical IGZO TFTs. The TFTs device has a channel width (W) of $80{\mu}m$ and a channel length (L) of $20{\mu}m$. The IDS-VDS curves showed well-defined transistor characteristics with saturation effects at VG>-10 V and VDS>-20 V for the inkjet printing IGZO device. The carrier charge mobility was determined to be 15.18 cm^2 V-1s-1 with FET threshold voltage of -3 V and on/off current ratio 10^9.

Forest green mold incidence rate, extent of damage according to the inoculation periods, and its cultural characteristics were observed in the automatic cultural system of the winter mushroom, Flammulina velutipes. The incidence rate of the forest green mold was 7.7% in early cultivation stage and slowly increased to 14.9% in harvest stage. When the forest green mold was inoculated at cultural period, the rate was recorded at 100%, but the extent of the damage increased up to 40% (+++). There was also 100% incidence rate at early pinheading time, whereas the yield of mushroom decreased to ++ $(10{\sim}39%)$. The rate of forest green mold was greatly decreased to 34.4% at 10 days after pinheading, and its damage extent was also below 10%. A pathogen to infect the winter mushroom was identified as Trichoderma pseudokoningii. It's optimum temperature for mycelial growth is $25^{\circ}C$, and it grew 2.6 times faster than that of F. velutipes. The mycelial color of T. pseudokoningii was pale yellow or olivaceous in shades on PDA medium. Phialospore was one celled, and ellipsodal or obovoid, smooth walled, and measured $1.3{\sim}3.0{\times}1.0{\sim}2.5\;{\mu}m$. It aggregated in small heads at the tips of the phialides. The phialides were $3.2{\sim}9.2{\times}2.0{\sim}5.5\;{\mu}m$ and were of bowling pin type, solitary and alternate or more irregularly disposed at the conidiophore apex, T. pseudokoningii depressed the F. velutipes growth at the crossing cultivation when they were simultaneously. FV 4-1 (F. velutipes) cultivar was less depressed by T. pseudokoningii, but had a lower cross growth rate than the other four cultivars.

Cu(In,Ga)$Se_2$(CIGS) photovoltaic thin films were electrodeposited on Mo/glass substrates with an aqueous solution containing 2 mM $CuCl_2$, 8 mM $InCl_3$, 20 mM $GaCl_3$ and 8mM $H_2SeO_3$ at the electrodeposition potential of -0.6 to -1.0 V(SCE) and pH of 1.8. The best chemical composition of $Cu_{1.05}In_{0.8}Ga_{0.13}Se_2$ was found to be achieved at -0.7 V(SCE). The precursor Cu-In-Ga-Se films were annealed for crystallization to chalcopyrite structure at temperatures of 100-$500^{\circ}C$ under Ar gas atmosphere. The chemical compositions, microstructures, surface morphologies, and crystallographic structures of the annealed films were analyzed by EPMA, FE-SEM, AFM, and XRD, respectively. The precursor Cu-In-Ga-Se grains were grown sparsely on the Mo-back contact and also had very rough surfaces. However, after annealing treatment beginning at $200^{\circ}C$, the empty spaces between grains were removed and the grains showed well developed columnar shapes with smooth surfaces. The precursor Cu-In-Ga-Se films were also annealed at the temperature of $500^{\circ}C$ for 60 min under Se gas atmosphere to suppress the Se volatilization. The Se amount on the CIGS film after selenization annealing increased above the Se amount of the electrodeposited state and the $MoSe_2$ phase occurred, resulting from the diffusion of Se through the CIGS film and interaction with Mo back electrode. However, the selenization-annealed films showed higher crystallinity values than did the films annealed under Ar atmosphere with a chemical composition closer to that of the electrodeposited state.

Construction Management(CM) and Building Information Management(BIM) have a lot in common that they need to establish a cooperation system among different disciplines and promote smooth communication among project stakeholders throughout the project life-cycle. BIM can be an effective information management tool for CM's business and improve their service value. However, BIM uses by Construction Managers(CMr) are very limited. The objective of this study is to analyze the intention of CMrs to adopt BIM and establish effective BIM use strategy in the CMr's point of view. This study utilizes Technology Acceptance Model(TAM) as a research method, and the results show that 1) CMrs think it is more important whether BIM is required to be adopted in their business process at the social or industry level than that BIM can improve their personal competence, recognition, and impressions through their voluntary BIM adoption; 2) that CMrs think it is important to figure out business processes where BIM can be smoothly incorporated; and 3) that CMrs hesitate the use and trial of BIM in their realworld business although they agree that BIM needs to be eventually adopted in their business in the future. Based on these results, directions for establish a strategy for BIM adoption were proposed at the CMr's point of view

To apply to novel two-interconnected fluidized beds system for selective solid circulation, a solid separator and a solid circulation system were developed. The solid separation rate increased as the gas velocity through the solid injection nozzle, solid height, and diameter of solid injection nozzle increased. However, the effect of the fluidization velocity was negligible. Coarse($212{\sim}300{\mu}m$) and fine($63{\sim}106{\mu}m$) particles were separated using the solid separator and the solid separation rate was ranged from 66 to 453 g/min. The solid circulation rate increased as the gas velocity through the solid injection nozzle, solid height, and the number of solid intake holes increased. However, the effect of the fluidization velocity was negligible. Fine particle was circulated using the solid circulation system and the solid circulation rate was ranged from 65 to 390 g/min. We also proposed two interconnenced fluidized beds system for selective solid circulation equipped with the developed solid separator and the solid circulation system. Long-term operation of continuous solid circulation up to 20 hours has been performed to check feasibility of stable operation. The pressure drop profiles in two beds and the solid separation rate were maintained steadily, and therefore, we could conclude that solid circulation was smooth and stable.

We observed that the thick outer bark layer of Quercus variabilis hindered oak longicorn beetle (Moechotypa diphysis) from laying its eggs in inner bark (secondary phloem tissues). The outer bark thickness of Q. variabilis was average of 7.4mm, while those of Q. mongolica. Q. serrata and Q. acutissima were average of 1.1mm, 1.3mm and 2.0mm, respectively. Inner bark thickness was 4.8mm in Q. acutissima and 3.6-3.9mm in the other oak species. The outer shape of ovipositional holes on the bark by the longicorn beetle was $8-12mm{\times}6-8mm$ wide oval in Q. variabilis, whereas $5-9mm{\times}1-5mm$ narrow fusiform in the other oak species. Oak longicorn beetle drilled average of three ovipositional holes per a 1.2m-long log in a few Q. variabilis logs and its ovipositional rate was 15%. Compared to this, the longicorn beetle preferred Q. mongolica. All the 32 investigated logs of this oak species were drilled to have 20 ovipositional holes per a log and ovipositional rate was 56%. One third of the eggs laid already hatched in early June to damage the inner bark. It seems that oak longicorn beetle prefers oak species with smooth, thin and stable outer bark surface.

The purpose of this study is to investigate relationships among career identity, satisfaction in major, and adjustment to college life for students who major in food and nutrition that is complex and has diversity of carrier and to serve as a guideline for career counselling and college life. After reliability and validity of the data collected were verified using IBM SPSS Statistics 22, difference in variables according to characteristics of students was examined using independent t-test, ANOVA, and chi-square test. The results showed that there was a positive correlation among career identity, satisfaction in major, and adjustment to college life and students who had prior knowledge of their major showed a higher level of career identity, satisfaction in major and adjustment to college life compared to those who did not. Therefore, it is suggested that guidance on Department of Food and Nutrition should be provided to students before they decide on their major for their increased satisfaction in major, smooth adjustment to college life, and career decision. With this data, we recognize the gravity of psychological factor and carrer consciousness may provide base data to practical use of student life and carrer guidance.
