In order to validate the variable aperture channel model that can deal with the non-uniform How rate in flow domain, migration experiments of conservative tracer were performed in two artificial fractures, a parallel and a wedge-shaped fracture. These different fracture shapes were designed to give different flow pattern. The fractures were made from a transparent acrylic plastic plate and a granite slab with dimensions of 10 $\times$ 61 $\times$ 61 cm. Uranine (Fluorescein sodium salt) was used as a conservative tracer. The volumetric flow rates of uranine feed solution were 30 mL/ hr, giving a mean residence time in the fracture of approximately 24 hours for the parallel fracture and 34 hours for the wedge-shaped fracture. The migration plumes of uranine were photographed to obtain profiles in space and time for movement of a tracer in fractures. The photographed migration plume was greatly affected by the geometric shape of fractures. The variable aperture channel model could have predicted the experimental results for the parallel fracture with a large accuracy. It is expected that the variable aperture channel model would be effective to predict the transport of the contaminant, especially, with the flow rate variation in a fracture.

The are early diagnosis of acoustic neuroma is important for radical removal of it and for early radiologic diagnosis which was considered to be the most reliable method it is required to know the normal dimension of the internal auditory meatus. There are two methods for internal auditory meatal measurement; one is indirect, such as the conventional roentogenography, laminoraphy and cisternography and the other is direct using rubber cast method of Amjad, A.H. et. al. Authors measured the anatomical dimensions of Korean adult internal auditory meatus with regular rubberbase impression material.

The crystal structure of p-phenylenediamine dihydrochloride has been determined from X-ray oscillation and Weissenberg photographs. The crystal is triclinic, space group $C_i1-P{\bar\1},$ with cell dimensions $a = 4.38{\pm}0.02, b = 5.90{\pm}0.02, c = 8.76{\pm}0.03 {\AA}, {\alpha} = 110{\AA}1, {\beta} = 96{\pm}1\; and\; {\gamma} = 101{\pm}1^{\circ}.$ There is one molecule in the unit cell. The atomic coordinates were found by means of two-dimensional Fourier projection and ($F_o-F_c$) projection along the a, b and c axes. The structure of p-phenylenediamine dihydrochloride is discussed in relation to the structures of hexamethylenediamine dihydrochloride, hexamethylenediamine dihydroiodide and ethylenediamine dihydrochloride.

This paper presents the results of a set of wind tunnel tests carried out to examine wind-induced overall structural loads on rectangular medium-rise buildings. Emphasis was directed towards torsion and its correlation with peak shear forces in transverse and longitudinal directions. Two building models with the same horizontal dimensions but different gabled-roof angles ($0^{\circ}C$ and $45^{\circ}C$) were tested at different full-scale equivalent eave heights (20, 30, 40, 50, and 60 m) in open terrain exposure for all wind directions (every $15^{\circ}C$). Wind-induced pressures were integrated over building surfaces and results were obtained for along-wind force, across-wind force, and torsional moment. Maximum wind force component was given along with the other simultaneously-observed wind force components normalized by the overall peak. The study found that for flat-roofed buildings maximum torsion for winds in transverse direction is associated with 80% of the overall shear force perpendicular to the longer horizontal building dimension; and 45% of the maximum shear occurs perpendicular to the smaller horizontal building dimension. Comparison of the wind tunnel results with current torsion provisions in the American wind standard, the Canadian and European wind codes demonstrate significant discrepancies. Suggested load combination factors were introduced aiming at an adequate evaluation of wind load effects on rectangular medium-rise buildings.

Performance evaluation continues to receive attention today as it has for the past few decades. The problem addressed in this paper concerns the relationship between supervisor's causal attributions and their subsequent responses behavior. Previous study in personnel and other disciplines has indicated the importance of causal attributions in the interpretation of poor performance. However, most study has focused on antecedents of attributions than supervisor's responses to the subordinate's poor performance. The objective of this study was to investigate the effects of supervisor's causal attributions and subordinate's responses to a subordinate's poor performance. Specifically, using in the public sector context, the study examined the effects to two dimensions of causal attributions: locus of causality and stability, as well as on the punitiveness of supervisors's responses. The result supported that when the subordinate is internal causes for the performance failure, supervisor's responses were more punitive. Consistent with previous studies, internal attributions were found to result in more punitive behavior than external attribution. In addition, attributions to effort and luck were found to result in more punitive behavior than attributions to ability and task difficulty. Thus, the first hypothesis and second hypothesis supported. These result suggest the importance of appropriately for performance evaluation.

Gaskets are usually used for the sealing of flange joints. The joint is usually composed of two flanges, a ring gasket and clamping bolts. The metal ring gasket is suitable for pipe flanges, pumps and valve joints in high temperature and high pressure environments. A very high surface stress is developed between a ring type joint gasket and the flange groove when the ring type joint is bolted up in a flange. The dimensions of flanges and ring joint gaskets for the pipe sizes that are in common use are specified in the ANSI codes. However, sometimes it is necessary to make a new design for the flange joint which is not specified in the codes, as the equipment is getting larger and larger in size. This paper presents the contact behavior of Class 600 ring joint gaskets with oval and octagonal cross sections. Five different sizes of gaskets are employed in the analysis, and one of them is newly designed on the basis of analysis results obtained from existing models. Three load steps are used to find the stress, stain and contact pressure etc., and to compare the contact characteristics among the models due to the bolt clamping force and the working surface pressure. ANSYS Workbench version15 is used to conduct the finite element analysis.

Purpose: The purpose of the study was to identify the pain patterns and factors affecting low back pain in middle-aged women with backache. Method: A descriptive research design was utilized. The participants were middle-aged women who visited to two back pain clinics in Wonju from October, 2006 through February, 2007. A total of 195 low back pain patients agreed to participate in this study, and data from 177 were analyzed. Data were collected using a questionnaire which included a modified short-form Korean pain rating scale, demographic factors, factors related to low back pain and health behavior. Descriptive statistics and multiple regression analysis was utilized in the analysis. Results: The mean score for low back pain was relatively low(M=21.57, SD=11.44). Among pain patterns, scores for dull pain were the highest of all the dimensions. In the regression analysis, significant factors affecting low back pain were found to be age, level of education, religion, BMI, experience of pregnancy, delivery type and exercise. These variables explained 24.8% of variance in low back pain(F=3.79, p<.001). Conclusion: These results suggest that nurses need for assessment and intervention to take into consideration pain patterns as well as factors affecting middle-age women with backache.

The current study developed the analysis program by employing the Polygon Clipping Algorithm to calculate the open area on the court when players try to spike a ball. The program consists of two kinds of output screen. First, on the main output screen, it is possible to calculate both blocked area by net and blockers, and opened area to avoid the blocked area when players spike the ball. Additionally, the secondary output screen shows the moving path of setter and the location of set. Main output screen indicates hitting points of spiking, blocking, and open area. Also, it is possible to analyze the movement of setter, location of set, and hitting point of attacker. The program was tested by comparing real coordinate value and location coordinate value which is operated on the program. To apply this program in the field, future study needs to develop the program that can calculate three dimensions coordinate fast by tracking the location of players or ball in real time.

A numerical model considering the vapor pressure and the creep models, in the form of a analytical program, for tracing the behavior of high strength concrete (HSC) members exposed to fire is presented. The two stages, i.e., spalling procedure and fire resistance time, associated with the thermal, moisture flow, creep and structural analysis, for the prediction of fire resistance behavior are explained. The use of the analytical program for tracing the response of HSC member from the initial pre-loading stage to collapse, due to fire, is demonstrated. The validity of the numerical model used in this program is established by comparing the predictions from this program with results from others fire resistance tests. The analytical program can be used to predict the fire resistance of HSC members for any value of the significant parameters, such as load, sectional dimensions, member length, and concrete strength.
