The SiOC film of carbon centered system was prepared using bistrimethylsilylmethane (BTMSM) and oxygen mixed precursor by the chemical vapor deposition. The dielectric constant is measured by MIS(metal/insulator/Si) structure, but it could decrease the reliability because the uniformity is not assured. To research the dielectric constant of SiOC film, the range of low polarization was researched in SiOC film using the optical analysis and hardness, and then calculated the dielectric constant of SiOC film with amorphous structure of high degree. After annealing, the dielectric constant of SiOC film was decreased owing to the lowering of polarization, and FTIR spectra of the main bond was shifted to higher wave number. The main bond of 950~1200 cm-1 was composed of the Si-C and Si-O bonds. The intensity increases in Si-O bond infers the bonding strength became stronger than that of deposited film. Annealed SiOC film showed 2.06 in dielectric constant.

Failure of the cut slope is triggered by combination of internal and extemal failure factors. Internal failure factors are related to geological and geometrical conditions of slope itself, and natural and/or artificial loadings on slope can be the external failure factors. Influences of these failure factors show different intensity according to the ground condition and are controlled by behavior characters of the slope. In this study, the soil depth ratio(SR), block size ratio(BR) and rock strength are used as the criteria to divide ground condition based on behavior characteristics. Ground condition of the slope is divided into discontinuous jointed rock mass and continuos soil-like mass, highly fractured rock mass and massive rock mass by the criteria(SR and BR). The SFi-system is a rating system to determine the slope failure index(SFi) by analyzing internal and external factors based on classification of the ground condition. The results of the SFi-system application to the real cut slopes show close relationship between the SFi value and potential or dimension of the failure. Therefore, the SFi-system can be used as a useful tool to predict and analyze the characteristic of the slope failure.

Purpose: This study was to suggest the direction to the exercise intervention development for the stroke survivors. Method: 12 domestic and 54 foreign research papers about the exercise intervention for the stroke patients published during 1998~2007 were analyzed. Result: Among the papers, quasi-experimental design(75.8%) and multidisciplinary approach(60.6%) were the most frequent ones. The mean age of the respondents was 63.3 and the intervention was supplied for 7.14 weeks. The frequency of exercise was 3.87 per week and the exercise time was 1.88 hours. And physical research variables - such as ambulation, muscle strength, activities of daily living and balance - were more than psychosocial variables. This study suggested that the exercise intervention for the stroke survivors need to include aerobic exercise, muscle strengthening exercise, flexible exercise, body coordination, balance exercise. In addition we confirmed that the exercise intervention was revealed as an effective physiological parameters; such as maximum oxygen uptake quantity, blood pressure. Conclusion: We suggest that the further researchs are needed which include the intensity of exercise into the quantity of the exercise. Also researchers need to extend the motion intervention time for an effective sociopsychological variable and to try the meta analysis for the effective exercise intervention for the stroke survivors.

Corrosion characteristics on the 12Cr alloy steel of turbine blade was electro-chemically investigated in 3.5wt% NaCI and 12.7wt% Na2S04 solution, respectively. Electro-chemical polarization test, Huey test and Oxalic acid etching test were previously conducted to estimate corrosion susceptibility of the material. And, using the horizontal corrosion fatigue tester, corrosion fatigue characteristics of 12Cr alloy steel in distilled water, 3.5wt% NaCI solution, and 12.7wt%(1M) Na2S04 solution were also fracture-mechanically estimated and compared their results. Parameter considered was room temperature, 60'C and 90'C. Corrosion fatigue crack length was measured by DC potential difference method.Obtained results are as follows,1) 12Cr alloy steel showed high corrosion rate in 3.5wt% NaCI solution and Na2S04 solution at high tempratue.2) Intergranular corrosion sensitivity of 12 Cr alloy was smaller than austenitic stainless steel.3) Corrosion fatigue crack growth rate in 3.5wt% NaCI and 12.7wt%(IM) Na2S04 solution is entirely higher than in the distilled water, and also increased with the temperature increase.

The purpose of this study is to analyze the effects of aerobic exercise on immune function, physical fitness and fat mass in middle-aged women. Twenty subjects were divided into two groups : experimental group(N:10) and control group(N:10). Experimental subjects were under the exercise conditions to perform the aerobic exercise using the movement of dance-sports with intensity of 60~80% HRmax for 60 min/day, 3 times/week during 12 weeks. After the aerobic exercise, the numbers of neutrophil, Iymphocyte, eosinophil, basophil, 73, 74 and B4 were significantly different. Crip-strength and sit-up ability significantly improved and all so weight and fat mass decreased on experimental group. Therefore, the aerobic exercise using the movement of dance-sports applying to middle-aged women would contribute them healthy life and prevention of chronic disease.

Spectrum sensing, the key technology of the cognitive radio networks, is used by a secondary user to determine the frequency state of a primary user. The energy detection in the spectrum sensing determines the presence or absence of a primary user according to the intensity of the allocated channel signal. Since this technique simply uses the strength of the signal for spectrum sensing, it is difficult to detect the signal of a primary user in the low SNR band. In this paper, we propose a way to combine spectrum sensing and support vector machine using wavelet packet decomposition to overcome performance degradation in low SNR band. In our proposed scheme, the sensing signals were extracted by wavelet packet decomposition and then used as training data and test data for support vector machine. The simulation results of the proposed scheme are compared with the energy detection using the AUC of the ROC curve and the accuracy according to the SNR band. With simulation results, we demonstrate that the proposed scheme show better determining performance than one of energy detection in the low SNR band.

Base-isolation is now being adopted as a retrofitting strategy to improve seismic behaviour of reinforced concrete (r.c.) framed structures subjected to far-fault earthquakes. However, the increase in deformability of a base-isolated framed building may lead to amplification in the structural response under the long-duration horizontal pulses of high-magnitude near-fault earthquakes, which can become critical once the strength level of a fire-weakened r.c. superstructure is reduced. The aim of the present work is to investigate the nonlinear seismic response of fire-damaged r.c. framed structures retrofitted by base-isolation. For this purpose, a five-storey r.c. framed building primarily designed (as fixed-base) in compliance with a former Italian seismic code for a medium-risk zone, is to be retrofitted by the insertion of elastomeric bearings to meet the requirements of the current Italian code in a high-risk seismic zone. The nonlinear seismic response of the original (fixed-base) and retrofitted (base-isolated) test structures in a no fire situation are compared with those in the event of fire in the superstructure, where parametric temperature-time curves are defined at the first level, the first two and the upper levels. A lumped plasticity model describes the inelastic behaviour of the fire-damaged r.c. frame members, while a nonlinear force-displacement law is adopted for the elastomeric bearings. The average root-mean-square deviation of the observed spectrum from the target design spectrum together with a suitable intensity measure are chosen to select and scale near- and far-fault earthquakes on the basis of the design hypotheses adopted.

Recently, the population of people exploring High Mountain trekking or expedition is increasing as an increase in the backpackers. Many accidents occurring at High Mountain above 6,000 m are the results of snow blindness. The damage of cornea and/or retina is direct cause of snow blindness. The UV intensity increases on the hand, along with the altitude caused by decrease in the atmospheric pressure, on the other hand the reflections by bright snow at high mountain area. And it increases approximately 3 times and 4 times higher than the ground level at altitude of 4,000 m and 8,000 m, respectively. The use of sunglasses is more favorable than goggles for the protection of snow blindness at High Mountains. The eye frames that have high mechanical strength and the plastic lenses which can protect UV 100% are recommended. The attachable shielding pads are needed to prevent the incident UV light reflected or scattered from the gap between glasses frame and face. The sunglasses must have flexible and long temples to wind the ears adequately for the prevention of detachment during climbing and it is recommended that the metal frame to be coated with plastics to prevent the eye surroundings from frostbite.
