This study analyzed the factors related to the job satisfaction and turnover rate of students in the skin care contract department, and suggested ways to enhance long-term employee retention. Frequency analysis and multiple regression analysis were performed using the SPSS statistical program and based on the survey data of 260 skin care contract students. The main results were as follows. First, contract students had high job satisfaction because of sufficient in-service training during the internship and also received the authority to perform the job duties of their positions. Second, the regular technical education for the job of contract students gave them confidence in job performance and job confidence, which led to long-term employee retention. Third, contractual students' turnover was reduced by applying compensation such as incentives, awards, and promotion opportunities in accordance with their work performance. Therefore, the results of the study suggest that compensation based on job performance, and the confidence in job performance of skin care contract students, can lead to increased job satisfaction, a reduced turnover rate and better long-term employee retention.

This study analyzed the effectiveness of visiting reading programs for vulnerable children, focusing on the case of libraries in A-si, Gyeonggi-do. Library A utilized a visiting teacher to deliver books that matched the children's levels and interests through non-face-to-face interactions, or to engage in face-to-face reading sessions and deliver books together. In 2022, a total of 158 individuals from 103 families participated in the program, with 103 individuals from 67 families delivering books and 55 individuals from 36 families engaging in book reading activities. Pre- and post-project surveys were conducted to assess the reading effects, and interviews were conducted with the visiting teachers. The analysis revealed that the level and interest of the children during book delivery and reading sessions were identified, and the effects of reading books with high levels of interaction were significant. Infants who were able to easily acquire reading experiences according to their age exhibited better reading effects compared to elementary school students. The program aimed at the new participant group showed slightly greater effectiveness than the group of continuing participants. Furthermore, following the implementation of the program, improvements were observed in reading interest, reading attitude, reading environment, reading interaction, self-esteem, social skills, language ability, reading proficiency, self-directed learning ability, and library utilization rate.

Since the construction of Kori 1 was completed in 1978, the construction projects for nuclear power plant are increasingly expanded into domestic and foreign sites. However, some of construction sites of nuclear power plant have the problems of process delay and cost loss due to lack of ability of risk management. The construction of reactor containment building in nuclear power plant is especially dotted with many risk factors because it needs professional skills and large-scale resources due to long duration compared with different construction phase. Therefore, it needs the study that analyzes risk factors expected in construction of reactor containment building and suggests way of stable performance of projects. So, this study assesses risk factors of construction of reactor containment building. For the objectives, this study uses survey for group of minority specialists of 36 experts. The risks of 24 factors is classified by criterions of process, cost, safety, and quality and the results of assessment is analyzed by analytic hierarchy process. As the results, the importance and priority of risk factors classified by each criterion were calculated and the applicability of analytic hierarchy process was identified to analyze risk factors of nuclear power plant construction. These will be baseline data for risk management in construction phase of reactor containment building.

Since the active matrix organic light-emitting diode (AMOLED) encapsulation process is very vulnerable to moisture and oxygen, high-purity nitrogen with minimal moisture and oxygen must be used. In this study, a copper-based catalyst used to remove oxygen from nitrogen in the AMOLED encapsulation process was optimized. Two-component and three-component catalysts composed of CuO, Al2O3, or ZnO were prepared through a co-precipitation method. The prepared catalysts were characterized by using BET, XRD, TPR, and XRF analysis. In order to verify the oxygen removal performance of the catalyst, several catalytic reactions were conducted in a fixed bed reactor, and the corresponding oxygen contents were measured through an oxygen analyzer. In addition, reusability of the catalysts was proven through repetitive regeneration. The properties and oxygen removal capacity of the catalysts prepared with CuO and Al2O3 ratios of 6 : 4, 7 : 3, and 8 : 2 were compared. The number of active sites of the catalyst with a ratio of CuO and Al2O3 of 8 : 2 was the highest among the 2-component catalysts. Moreover, the reducibility of the catalyst with a ratio of CuO and Al2O3 of 8 : 2 was the best as it had the highest CuO dispersion. As a result, the oxygen removal ability of the catalyst with a ratio of CuO and Al2O3 of 8 : 2 was the best among the 2-component catalysts. The best oxygen removal capacity was obtained when 2wt% of ZnO was added to the sub-optimized catalyst (i.e., CuO : Al2O3 = 8 : 2) probably due to its outstanding reducibility. Furthermore, the optimized catalyst kept its performance during a couple of regeneration tests.

A process for manufacturing virally-safe bovine amniotic membrane(BAM) has been developed for biological dressing. BAM was harvested from a healthy bovine placenta, and then the epithelium was removed. The remaining stromal layer was consecutively disinfected with 70% ethanol and 0.05% sodium hypochlorite. The stromal layer was incubated in a decellularization solution containing 0.25%(w/v) trypsin to remove the cellular components. The resulting acelluar BAM was lyophilized to preserve its biochemical and structural integrity. The BAM was packed and exposed to 25 kGy of gamma irradiation for sterilization purpose. Histological, electron microscopical, and biochemical observations showed that the acellualr BAM had intact structural integrity of three dimensional collagen fibers and contained several growth factors, accelerating wound healing, such as EGF (Epidermal growth factor), KGF (Keratinocyte growth factor), and FGF (Fibroblast growth factor). Bovine herpes virus (BHV), bovine viral diarrhoea virus (BVDV), bovine parainfluenza virus type 3 (BPIV-3), and bovine parvovirus (BPV) were chosen as the biological indicators for validation of viral safety of the acellular BAM. Samples from relevant stages of the production process were spiked with each virus and subjected to viral inactivation processes. Viruses were recovered from the samples and then titrated immediately. All the viruses tested were completely inactivated to undetectable levels within 1 h of 70% ethanol treatment. Enveloped viruses such as BHV, BVDV, and BPIV-3 were more effectively inactivated than BPV by 0.05% sodium hypochlorite treatment. BHV, BVDV, and BPIV-3 were completely inactivated to undetectable levels by 25 kGy of gamma irradiation. Also BPV was effectively inactivated by 25 kGy of gamma irradiation. The cumulative log reduction factors of BHV, BVDV, BPIV-3, and BPV were ${\geq}$13.30, ${\geq}$14.32, ${\geq}$15.22, and ${\geq}$7.57, respectively. These results indicate that the production process for acelluar BAM has a sufficient virus-reducing capacity to achieve a high margin of the virus safety.

There is an increase in interest and investment in high-rise housing as it is perceived to be a new value-added market in the construction industry. In constructing a high-rise housing, the finishing works are executed in accompaniment with many other activities that are progressed repeatedly and spontaneously on each floor. It was reported that the duration of finishing works differs according to the management ability of the executing company and has a significant effect on the entire project duration. We suggest a need to concentrate on important management factors by analyzing the factors affecting the productivity of finishing works based on the site characteristics in high-rise housing. There are various complex productivity-affecting factors including the technical factors involved in planning and managing the processes of finishing works. From the viewpoint of planning and management factors, the importance of productivity-affecting factors was analyzed using the Analytic Hierarchy Process (AHP). A continuous examination of the management of high-importance factors will make it possible to improve productivity by enhancing the understanding of productivity-affecting factors of finishing works and suggesting a practical management direction.

토지이용의 고도화에 따라 비점오염원 부하는 증가하는 추세이며 기후변화에 따른 강우강도 증가 등으로 지표면에 축적된 고농도의 비점오염물질이 하천으로 유출, 수질오염을 가중시키고 있어 비점오염원 관리가 필요하다. LID 기법은 자연적 기작(mechanisms)과 공정(process)을 이용하여 생태계의 물질순환(물순환 포함)과 에너지 흐름이 원활하도록 조성하는 기법으로, 불투수층면에서 발생되는 강우유출수를 관리 가능하다. LID 시설에는 전처리 시설을 두어 초기 고농도의 입자상 물질을 저감시키고, 강우유출수 저류공간을 통한 유출저감, 첨두유량 등을 저감시킨다. 이러한 전처리 시설에는 유기물질 및 영양소의 생물학적 제거를 위한 미생물 서식공간의 제공 등의 역할을 수행하기 위하여 다양한 여재를 적용하고 있다. 본 연구는 비점오염물질 유입이 LID 기법 전처리 시설 내 여재층의 물리·화학적 및 생물학적 환경을 평가하였다. 3개 시설 모두 100%의 불투수층에서 발생되는 강우유출수를 처리하는 LID 시설을 연구대상으로 선정하였으며, 각각의 전처리 시설에는 자갈, 우드칩, 쇄석 등이 적용되어 있다. 퇴적물의 경우 가장 상부에 존재하는 층으로 퇴적물의 오염물질 농도는 2~10.7배 이상 매우 높게 나타났다. 우드칩의 경우 다른 여재에 비해 높은 함수량과 유기물 함량을 보였으며 이는 우드칩의 수분을 보유하는 능력과 거친 표면공극에 오염물질이 부착되기 때문으로 나타났다. 또한, 같은 무기성 여재인 쇄석과 자갈의 경우 여재 크기의 차이를 보임에도 불구하고 미생물의 군집구성과 함수량의 차이를 보이는 것으로 평가되었다. 유기물의 함량이 낮은 강우유출수의 생물학적 처리능력을 향상시키기 위해서는 유기성 여재가 필요하며, 다공성 무기 멀칭재를 적용하고 하부의 토양은 적정 유기물을 배합하여 질산화 및 탈질화 유도가 가능하도록 설계가 필요한 것으로 분석되었다.

최근 반도체 회로의 미세화로 인해 디자인 공정이 20 nm 이하로 내려갔다. 그 결과 회로간의 간격이 줄었으며 많은 문제가 발생 한다. 첫 번째 문제는 미세하게 여러 박막 층들을 쌓기 때문에 박막 층이 그전 50 nm 공정에 비해선 쉽게 무너질 수 있다. 따라서 하나의 박막 층은 다른 여러 박막들의 하중을 잘 견뎌야 할 것이다. 결과적으로 회로의 미세화에 따라 박막의 기계적 특성이 좋아야 될 것이다. 또 다른 문제는 너무 좁은 회로의 간격으로 인해 다른 회로에 영향을 미치는 크로스토크라는 전기적 문제이다. 크로스토크가 크다는 것은 회로간의 누설 전류가 크다는 것을 의미하며 그만큼 신호 전달 능력이 감소 한다는 것을 뜻한다. 크로스토크의 문제점을 해결하기 위해 회로 사이에 절연 막을 만들어 누설전류를 막아야 한다. 이러한 문제를 바탕으로 본 연구는 Zirconium nitride (ZrN) 박막이 이러한 문제점을 해결 할 수 있는 지연구해 보았다. 박막 제작 시 변화 요인은 질소유량 과 열처리 온도 이며 질소유량 변화는 2 sccm 과 8 sccm 두 경우로 하였다. 또한 열처리는 As-deposited state, $600^{\circ}C$ 와 $800^{\circ}C$로 열처리 하였다. 박막 증착은 RF magnetron sputtering을 이용하였으며 열처리는 질소 분위기에서 furnace를 이용하였다. 기계적 특성분석 결과 질소유량이 2 sccm 인 박막의 hardness는 as-deposited stste에서 18.8 GPa이고 $600^{\circ}C$에선 18.4 GPa로 거의 비슷하고 $800^{\circ}C$ 열처리한 경우는 15.4 GPa 으로 hardness가 감소하는 것을 알 수 있었다. 질소 유량을 8 sccm 흘려주며 증착한 박막의 경우는 as-deposited state, $600^{\circ}C$, $800^{\circ}C$에서의 hardness가 각각 17.5, 16.4, 21.1 GPa 으로 감소하다가 증가하는 경향을 보였다. 또한 zrN 박막의 전기적 특성인 누설 전류 밀도도 측정하였다. 결과적으로 본 연구는 ZrN 박막의 질소 유량 변화와 열처리에 따른 기계적, 전기적 특성변화를 확인 하였다.

New polysulfone scintillation proximity membranes were prepared by impregnating Cerium Activated Yttrium Silicate (CAYS), an inorganic fluor, in a membrane structure. The membranes were applied to detect the radionuclide contamination directly without the aid of a scintillation cocktail. The preparation of membranes was divided into two processes. A supporting polymer film was made of casting solutions consisting of polysulfone and solvent, their cast film being solidified by vacuum evaporation. CAYS-dispersed polymer solutions were cast over the first, solidified polymer films and coagulated either by evaporating solvent or by exchanging solvent in the solution with nonsolvent in a coagulation bath. The prepared membranes had two distinguished, but tight1y attached, double layers: one is the supporting layer of dense polymer film and the other the detecting layer consisting of CAYS and polymer. The radionuclide counting results revealed that the prepared membranes were efficient to monitor radioactivity contamination with reliable counting ability.
