"Behind a Mask" (1866) marks the new direction of Louisa May Alcott's artistic and personal life. Her European trip solidified her identity as a mature woman, most importantly as a mature American woman, one whose independence from Victorian stereotypes would, from now on, make her fortune and fame. Her sensational stories, especially "Behind a Mask," would tell truths that readers recognized but had rarely seen written. These truths would free them, and the author herself, to explore their talents as individuals. Henceforth, Alcott would embody the successful American artistic entrepreneur as one who shed the European domination of false titles and inherited wealth. These motifs of the transnational connection pervade the story, in the form of images and likenesses. Just as Alcott would soon, in two years, reach astonishing financial success with the publication of Little Women, her meteoric ascent parallels America's rise to power in the world's economy, which came about with almost alarming speed after the conclusion of the American Civil War.

Eugene O'Neill portrays Puritan values of the Mannon family inherited from their family past. Since Puritan values of the Mannons suppress the normal way of life and love, they retain only rigidity, without the charity which is the core element of the teaching of Christianity. With Puritan repression and its dissociation from the vital spring of life, the Puritan Mannons live in a world drained of life and in a world of hypocrisy between outer beauty and inner ugliness. Ironically, they think more of death itself, neglecting to feel the vitality of life. Working as a fate, Puritan values of the Mannon as 'Force Behind' in O'Neill's own term are the cause of suffering and destruction of the Mannons throughout the whole play. The mask-like house and faces are effectively used as a dramatic technique to express the distorted Puritan values.

Tension mask assembly is positioned right behind the glass-made front panels of CRT type display devices. The frame-supported thin metal sheet contains numerous slits, through which electron beams are focused to enhance definition. Pretension is imposed on the masks, especially for enlarged flat screens, in order to avoid vibration due to acoustic or mechanical impact. High temperature assembly process subsequent to pretensioning, however, degenerates the creep resistance of common mask materials, and if tensile stress is high enough, tension on the mask may be loosened substantially due to creep deformation. In this study, the assembly is modeled as a combined structure of beams and wire array, and a numerical simulation is attempted for pretensioning followed by high temperature process. According to a model study, small amount of creep strain is likely to be generated, but its adverse influence is not negligible. Some structural modification measures to reduce the creep-induced tension loosening are proposed and evaluated. Also, optimal configuration of frame structure is sought for, which maintains high tension of masks and minimizes the possible creep of frame simultaneously.

Tension mask is a part of CRT type devices, which is installed right behind glass-made front panel. Numerous slits on the thin metal sheet enable the electron beams emitted from posterior gun to be focused, resulting in enhanced definition. Flattened and enlarged displays necessitate the imposition of pretension on the masks, in order to improve the robustness of display quality against vibration or impact. High temperature assembly process subsequent to pretensioning, however, degenerates creep resistance of mask material, and common mask may become susceptible to undesirable elongation due to creep. Once tensile stress becomes high enough to induce creep deformation, pretension is substantially loosened. In this study, tension mask assembly is modeled as a combined structure of beams and wire array, and a numerical simulation is attempted for pretensioning followed by high temperature process. Based on a model study, creep occurrence is found to be probable and its adverse influence is quantified. As fur maintaining high tensile force, simply increasing pretension does not seem to be helpful. Instead, the structure of frame needs to be modified somehow, or material for mask needs to be selected properly.

This paper gives a feminist reading of Suzanne Alexander in The Alexander Plays by focusing on her performances as active reconstitutions of history and memory. A compilation of four of Adrienne Kennedy's more recent plays, The Alexander Plays revolves around a central protagonist who, behind windows and within the closed spaces of the home, waits for her missing husband to return home. Yet, the plot of the waiting wife seems to mask the hidden and more dangerous desires for political transgressions of the play. By analyzing Suzanne's interaction with various literary and historical figures, memories and events, this paper argues that her seeming approval of domesticity, femininity and intimacy serves as a cover for her more political altercations with history, race and gender.

In this paper, we demonstrate a self-imaging technique that can visualize longitudinal interference patterns behind periodically-structured objects, which is often referred to as Talbot carpet. Talbot carpet is of great interest due to ever-decreasing scale of interference features. We demonstrate experimentally that Talbot carpets can be imaged in a single exposure configuration revealing a broad spectrum of multi-scale features. We have performed rigorous diffraction simulations for showing that Talbot carpet print can produce ever-decreasing structures down to limits set by mask feature sizes. This demonstrates that large-scale pattern masks may be used for direct printing of features with substantially smaller scales. This approach is also useful for characterization of image sensors and recording media.

COVID-19 팬데믹의 확산은 마스크를 일상생활에서의 필수품으로 변화시켰으며, 마스크에 대한 대중의 인식과 행동에 큰 변화를 일으켰다. 마스크 착용 의무의 완화가 진행되고 있는 가운데, 여전히 많은 사람들이 마스크 착용을 유지하며, 마스크를 개인의 개성과 정체성을 표현하는 패션 수단으로 활용하는 추세가 나타나고 있다. 그러나 마스크와 관련된 기존 연구는 주로 마스크의 감염 예방 효과나 팬데믹 상황에서의 채택 태도를 탐구하는 등 제한된 분야에 국한되어 있어, 마스크 디자인에 대한 소비자 선호도를 이해하기 위한 연구의 필요성이 대두되고 있다. 본 연구는 마스크의 접이 방식에 따라 마스크 디자인을 수평 접이형 마스크와 수직 접이형 마스크 두 가지 유형으로 구분하고, 각각의 디자인에 대한 소비자 지각과 선호도를 설문 및 시선 추적 방법론을 활용하여 조사하였다. 소비자 설문에 대한 T 검정을 수행한 결과, 수직 접이형 마스크가 수평 접이형 마스크 대비 소비자에게 선호되며, 독특성, 세련미, 입체감, 생동감이 높게 평가되는 경향이 나타났다. 이후, 수직 접이형 마스크가 매력적으로 인식되는 원인을 실증적으로 이해하기 위해 각 마스크 디자인에 대한 아이트래킹 분석을 수행하고, 마스크 디자인 별 시선 패턴의 차이를 도출하였다. 본 연구는 마스크 관련 연구의 범위를 감염 예방 효과 검증 등의 제한적인 영역에서 나아가, 소비자의 디자인 지각 및 평가 영역까지 확장한 점, 마스크의 접이 방식이라는 디자인 요소가 소비자의 지각, 태도 및 생리적 반응에 미치는 잠재적 영향력을 설명하고자 한 점에서 이론적인 공헌이 있으며, 소비자에게 선호되는 마스크 디자인을 위한 의사결정을 지원할 수 있다는 측면에서 실무적인 함의가 있다.

Fiber Bragg gratings (FBGs) are the most compact and reliable method of suppressing atmospheric emission lines in the infrared for ground-based telescopes. It has been proved that real FBGs based filters were able to eliminate 63 bright sky lines with minimal interline losses in 2011 (GNOSIS). Inscribing FBGs on multi-core fibers offers advantages. Compared to arrays of individual SMFs, the multi-core fiber Bragg grating (MCFBG) is greatly reduced in size, resistant to damage, simple to fabricate, and easy to taper into a photonics lantern (PRAXIS). Multi-mode fibers should be used and the number of modes has to be large enough to capture a sufficient amount of light from the telescope. However, the fiber Bragg gratings can only be inscribed in the single-mode fiber. A photonic lantern bi-directionally converts multi-mode to single-mode. The number of cores in MCFBGs corresponds to the mode. For a writing system consisting of a single ultra-violet (UV) laser and phase mask, the standard writing method is insufficient to produce uniform MCFBGs due to the spatial variations of the field at each core within the fiber. Most significant technical challenges are consequences of the side-on illumination of the fiber. Firstly, the fiber cladding acts as a cylindrical lens, narrowing the incident beam as it passes through the air-cladding interface. Consequently, cores receive reduced or zero illumination, while the focusing induces variations in the power at those that are exposed. The second effect is the shadowing of the furthest cores by the cores nearest to the light source. Due to a higher refractive index of cores than the cladding, diffraction occurs at each core-cladding interface as well as cores absorb the light. As a result, any core that is located directly behind another in the beam path is underexposed or exposed to a distorted interference pattern from what phase mask originally generates. Technologies are discussed to overcome the problems and recent experimental results are presented as well as simulation results.

본고에서는 신자유주의의 폭력성으로 인해 라틴아메리카가 얼마나 많은 피해를 감수해 왔는지를 에두아르도 갈레아노의 작품을 통해 살펴보고자 한다. 1980년대 중반부터 시작된 신자유주의는 많은 나라에서 다양한 문제점을 드러내고 있다. 미국과 국제금융기관은 금융위기에 빠진 라틴아메리카 국가들에 자신들의 프로그램과 조정계획을 강요하였다. 그 결과 라틴아메리카에서는 사회적 불평등이 심화되고 사회 복지대신 투자 환경이 중요시되고, 사회적 안전 대신 금융 안정이 우선시되었다. 노동의 유연성으로 인해 중산층도 붕괴되었다. 신분상승의 기회를 박탈당한 빈민층에서는 폭력이 일상화되었다. 그래서 갈레아노는 자유주의가 중시하는 생산성의 가치에 대한 재검토 필요성을 제기한다. 갈레아노는 동시에 신자유주의의 군사화도 경계한다. 신자유주의는 평화를 가장하여 국경 없는 다국적 전쟁을 유발하기 때문이다. 미국이 '마약과의 전쟁'을 명분으로 라틴아메리카를 폭력의 장으로 변질시킨 점을 예로 든다. 신자유주의의 시장 자유화와 이익 극대화 정책은 세계의 환경오염에도 지대한 공헌을 하고 있다. 그러나 대기업과 국제기구가 협동으로 벌이는 환경파괴행위는 겉으로 드러나지 않는다. 녹색 가면을 쓰고 있기 때문이다. 갈레아노는 녹색 가면 뒤에 숨어있는 그들의 허위의식을 드러내려 노력한다. 갈레아노는 신자유주의 정책으로 인해 폭력이 일상화된 라틴아메리카의 모습을 그의 작품에서 간결하지만 날카로운 필체로 잘 그려내고 있다.

This study was a descriptive research on the level of self-care available to continous ambulatory peritoneal dialysis patients (hereinafter referred to as 'CAPD patient') related to the specific area of infection management. The method employed for the collection of data was a modified instrument of the self-care survey essentially based on Young Sook Choi's instrument. The relevant data was collected from september 1, 1996 to september 30, 1996. The subjects were provided with an open-ended question regarding the reasons behind why they did not seek self-care. The answers provided about self-care compliance were analyzed by SPSS for frequency, percentage, mean, t-test, ANOVA. Reasons for non-compliance were analyzed by content analysis. The results of the study were as follows : 1. The percentage of patients engaging in self-care were according to the following self performed tasks : preparation of dialysis : 30.58 points Dialysate exchange procedures : 49.40 points - Two bag type : 50.50 points - Spike type : 48.80 points - Neo type : 48.90 points Catheter exit site care : 25.13 points More specifically, in relation to the preparation of dialysis as referred to above, those patients engaging in self care was relatively high with respect to the cleaning of the dialysis before use and for the preservation of peritosol. However, in dialysate exchange procedures, data revealed that those patients engaging in self-care are relatively low with respect to putting on a mask during the performance of peritosol exchange. Similary in peritosol exchange procedure and catheter exit care, low levels of self-care performance were found in the area of putting on a mask during the peritosol exchange procedures and catheter line testing procedures, respectively. 2. In general characteristics, there appeared to be no distinction in self-care compliance among CAPD patients. 3. The main reasons for non-compliance were based in the following factor : intellectual, attitude, enviromental surrounding and physical. As a result of the foregoing finding, nurses should provide adequate assistance to promote self-care compliance by CAPD patients by checking the preparation of dialysis, dialysate exchange procedure, and catheter exit site care which recieved low point in this research.
