This paper introduces the design, casting, and sound evaluation results of the Great Bell of 2018 Pyeongchang Winter Olympics. The Olympic Bell was manufactured to announce the opening of the successful Winter Olympics in the world with a grand sound. The bell was designed to the dynamic shape to give a grand and harmonious sound in consideration of the global sports festival. In this study, the performance of the beat making the sound magnificent and the harmony of the bell sound were quantitatively evaluated using acoustical factors. Beat maps were investigated to understand the directivity of the beating sound. The purpose of the research is to present the production technique of a traditional Korean bell that has a dynamic shape and a grand and harmonious sound.

FRP(Fiber Reinforced Plastic) ships are easy to manufacture and repair. Also they are more durable and cheaper than steel wires and neck lines. Therefore FRP ships are widely used in small ships. In Korea, the amount of waste FRP ships is increasing. It is expected that a large amount of waste FRP ships will be generated. Waste FRP ships are emerging as a social problem, such as the difficulty in preserving the marine environment. To improve this, a waste FRP ship melting process system has been developed. In order to construct an effective waste FRP ship processing system, it is necessary to study the treatment facilities location problem. In this paper, we suggest mathematical model to solve optimal location problem of waste FRP Ships and discuss on results by applying it to nine regions selected as candidates for treatment facilities.

In this study, hyaluronic acid (HA) was electro-spun to fabricate nanofibrous membranes for support materials. Because HA is very hygroscopic, it is difficult to obtain enough viscosity to apply electrospinning method. Therefore, we mixed HA with polyethylene oxide (PEO) to obtain proper viscosity and added adipic acid (ADH) to promote cross-linking of PEO/HA during electrospinning. The morphology of PEO/HA membrane was optimized according to PEO/HA concentration ratio and spinning rate. Finally, we fabricated gold-nanoparticle-embedded PEO/HA membranes and their catalyst activities were evaluated in tetramethylbenzidine (TMB) oxidation.

In January 2018, the Ministry of Education published "Seismic design criteria for school buildings" and "Manual for seismic performance evaluation and retrofit of school buildings" to evaluate seismic performances through linear analysis. This paper evaluates the seismic performance of an old school building through the linear analysis. The target building was constructed in the late 1970s, and the seismic-force-resisting system was assumed to be a reinforced concrete moment frame with an un-reinforced masonry wall. As a result of the evaluation, the target building does not satisfy the 'life safety' level of 1.2 times the design spectrum. The average strength ratio of moment frames, an indicator of the level of seismic performance tends to be controlled by beams. However, through the Pohang earthquake, it was known that the short column effect caused by the partially infilled masonry wall caused shear failure of the columns in school buildings. Therefore, it is necessary to improve the linear analysis so that the column controls the average strength ratio of moment frames.

This study represents the marketing strategy of naturally fermented vinegar drink produced by a small business company located in Gangwon-do, the Republic of Korea. We surveyed about 200 potential customers in Seoul, Gyeonggi-do and Gyeongsangnam-do. Based on the survey result, we present the marketing strategy using the credited methodology, marketing mix(4P).

Recently, object detection is a critical function for any system that uses computer vision and is widely used in various fields such as video surveillance and self-driving cars. However, the conventional methods can not detect the objects clearly because of the dynamic background change in the beach. In this paper, we propose a new technique to detect humans correctly in the dynamic videos like shores. A new background modeling method that combines spatial GMM (Gaussian Mixture Model) and temporal GMM is proposed to make more correct background image. Also, the proposed method improve the accuracy of people detection by using SVM (Support Vector Machine) to classify people from the objects and KCF (Kernelized Correlation Filter) Tracker to track people continuously in the complicated environment. The experimental result shows that our method can work well for detection and tracking of objects in videos containing dynamic factors and situations.
