Aging is a complex biological process characterized by a gradual decline in cellular and physiological functions. This natural process is associated with age-related diseases, including Alzheimer's disease, atherosclerosis, and hypogonadism, which are significant health concerns among older individuals and can significantly impact their quality of life. Researchers have found that epigenetic markers play a crucial role in regulating aging and age-related diseases. Epigenetic markers are heritable gene expression alterations that do not change in the DNA sequence. This review focuses on the involvement of various epigenetic marks, such as RNA methylation, DNA methylation, and microRNAs (miRNAs), in regulating gene expression patterns associated with age-related diseases, such as Alzheimer's disease, atherosclerosis, and hypogonadism. These epigenetic alterations can lead to the dysregulation of specific genes and signaling pathways, contributing to the development and progression of Alzheimer's disease, atherosclerosis, and hypogonadism. Understanding the molecular mechanisms behind these epigenetic modifications is essential for both the aging population and individuals seeking ways to promote overall well-being. By gaining deeper insights into how epigenetic marker alteration occurs during aging and age-related diseases, researchers can potentially develop targeted therapeutic strategies to alleviate the impact of these conditions and improve the quality of life for older individuals.

In this study, the land market in Eastern District of Gyeongseong is examined using land price data in the 1920's. For the study, land information in 1927 is constructed as a DB, and a map in 1929 is constructed as a GIS file to realize digitalization of historical data. As a result of the study, it is confirmed that spatial autocorrelation exists, and through spatial econometrics analysis, some factors affecting the modern land market are also valid at that time. The results show that land use and road accessibility have a positive effect on the land market, while the proximity of anchor facilities and educational facilities have a negative effect. This study is meaningful in that it has moved on to a research topic that has been insufficient until now by examining whether the factors operating in the land market in the 21st century are also valid in the land market in the 1920's.

This study was conducted to investigate the effects of the gloss of a product's packaging on purchase intention and the mediating role of perceived corporate eco-friendliness and perceived quality in food area. The participants were randomly assigned to product package condition (glossy vs. matte) and after observing ketchup and potato chips, they responded to questions on about perceived corporate eco-friendliness, perceived quality, and purchase intention. The participants reported their opinion that companies that manufactured matte package products would likely use more organic ingredients and would be more eco-friendly than companies that manufactured glossy package products. The more the participants perceived a company to be eco-friendly, the better they evaluated the company's product quality and the higher their purchase intention. This study has theoretical and practical implications, in that it extends the study of the product package in relation to its effect on corporate image, and it proposes a practical use of matte product package for improving the eco-friendly image of the company. Limitations and further research were also discussed.

The study examines the significance and limits of modern park planning by analyzing major planning documents of Gyeongseong in the Japanese colonial era. Among seven selected documents from 1925 to 1940, which show the contents related with park planning, documents of 1930 and 1940 presented the official park plan of Gyeongseong. By the 1920s, the park plan was not a major concern in urban planning of Gyeongseong; however, as the planning law as enacted in 1934, the park plan legally became a part of the official master planning process in the 1930s. In 1940, the most comprehensive park plan for Gyeongseong was published. In the beginning of modern urban planning, a park was mainly perceived as a sanitation utility. From the 1920s to the 1930s, the park planning system was significantly improved including systemic classification of parks, guideline development considering spatial planning, and introduction of a concept of infra-structural green space. Despite of the improvement in the park planning, the actual quantity of the overall green spaces barely changed and there was a huge discrepancy between the planning ideal and the reality. The Gyeongseong stadium was the only facility newly built in the 1920s, and only two parks were constructed in the 1930s. The plan to build 38 new parks in the 1930, and 140 in the 1940 was barely realized. However, there were efforts to improve parks and green spaces of Gyeongseong: Such as appropriating natural forest as parks, designating royal palaces as parks, and focusing on constructing smaller scale children's parks. Even though the ideal plan could not be fully implemented due to the war time situation and tight budget, the park system of Gyeongseong provided the framework of park planning of Seoul after the independence.

This paper proposes a motion estimation algorithm with run-time adaptive workload control. It has optimized performance within limited hardware resources while guaranteeing hard realtime operation. It performs maximum searches within hard realtime constraints, since it determines search steps and workload adaptively. It reduces the hardware size to 1/4~1/400 of conventional algorithms, while its PSNR degradation is only 0.02~0.44 dB. It can be easily applied to most conventional fast algorithms, so it is useful to design realtime encoder chips.

하천의 조도계수는 흐름에 대한 하도의 저항 정도를 표시하는 지표로서, 하천의 다양한 수리 계산을 실시할 때 가장 중요한 기본 자료 중 하나이다. 이러한 조도계수는 하도의 형상, 하상 재료, 유량의 크기 등에 의해 영향을 받는다. 본 연구에서는 하천의 유량 규모에 따른 조도계수의 변화 정도를 수리 실험과 수치 모의를 통해 간접적으로 검토하였다. 유량 조건별 수리 실험은 한국건설기술연구원의 하천실험센터 내 직선 수로에서 수행하였고, 수치 모의는 HEC-RAS를 이용하였다. 유량 조건은 하천실험센터의 펌프 가동의 정도를 고려하여 5개로 구분하였고, 각각의 유량 조건에 대하여 유량을 실측하였다. 실측에 따른 유량의 규모는 $0.23{\sim}1.91m^3/s$로 나타났다. 각각의 유량 조건에 대하여 수치 모의의 검증을 위해 6개 지점에서 수위표와 초음파 수위계를 이용하여 수위를 계측하였고, 이 가운데 최하류 지점의 수위는 HEC-RAS 모형의 하류단 경계조건으로 이용하였다. 실험 하도 구간의 총 연장은 372 m 이고, 횡단구조물이 없는 지점을 제외하면 대부분 20 m 간격으로 총 21개의 하천 단면을 입력하여 HEC-RAS를 구성하였다. 각각의 유량 조건에 대한 수치 모의 모형은 5개 수위 계측 지점의 수위 오차가 최소화되도록 조도계수를 변화시켜 보정되었다. 그 결과, 각각의 유량 조건에 대한 수치 모의 결과의 평균 오차는 0.01~0.02 m로 계산치와 관측치가 매우 근사하였다. 결정된 조도계수는 0.041~0.075의 범위를 가지는 것으로 분석되었고, 유량의 증가에 따라 큰 폭으로 감소하다가 특정한 값에 수렴하는 것으로 검토되었다.

The former administration office building of Kyeong-seong-bu(京城府) was a building converted from the Japanese residency-general's of Kyeong-seong(京城理事廳) which was originally built as the Japanese consulate in Joseon(日本領事館). It was too worn and too small as a Kyeong-seong-bu administration office even with several annexes. Kyeong-seong-bu tried to build a new big administration office building at the vacant north side of the same site, which was closely faced to the rotary in front of the Bank of Joseon(朝鮮銀行前廣場). But this trial was ended in vain due to insufficient budget. Therefore Kyeong-seong-bu built a new administration office building in another site and moved to it in 1926 with debts. For paying for the debts Kyeong-seong-bu sold the former site after partitioning with new roads through it. As a result the nature of the former site and its surroundings was changed. This study traces the changes and inquires how the authorities in the colonial Joseon and various commercial powers of Kyeong-seong-bu behaved for their own interests in the meantime. It makes use of the historical records and documentary literatures between early 1910s and early 1930s.

Oil seals are most essential parts in mechanical lubrication system to maintain the close gaps between stationary and high rotating components, and to help prevent oil leakages. Oil seals also can prevent harmful contaminants entering from outside to machinery, especially in severe environments. Therefore, the oil seals have an important performance in the machinery components. The performance of the oil seals are influenced by the design variables such as amount of interference gap between the main lip and shaft, the angle of main lip at air and oil sides and the distance between the garter spring and main lip. In the present study, a finite element analysis was performed to evaluate the oil seal performance with the considerations of number of oil seal dust lips and angle of the lip at oil side with the different design variables. As a result from the FEM analysis, the stress and contact pressure distributions was derived, based on this, performance of the sealing and durability were determined.
