The purpose of this study was to analyze differences in general characteristics, loss experience, aging anxiety, and depression between young-old and old-old and to investigate the difference between the two groups in the effect of loss experience on aging anxiety and depression. The subjects were 65 elderly living in Seoul and Gyeonggi area. First, the young-old were more likely to have spouses than the old-old. Second, old-old experience more loss of health, relationships, economy, and role than young-old. And old-old had higher aging anxiety and lower depression than young-old. Third, for young-old, loss of health, economy, and role affected depression. And for old-old, loss of role affected aging anxiety and depression, and loss of economy affected aging anxiety. This study is meaningful as a basic data for preparing policy and system to supplement loss experience suitable for young-old and old-old.

As the number of aged-housing has been rapidly increased, many kinds of defects and problems such as degeneration of housing environment, structural performance, and equipment performance have been appeared. The reconstruction as the way to improve the aged-housing has been used mostly because the legal process of the reconstruction is relatively easy. On the other hand, it has caused problems such as the lack of natural aggregate, the environmental damages owing to construction wastes, the loss of national resources, and the lack of the housing for rent nearby the reconstruction area. This problems limit active tying into the reconstruction business at present in the industrial and political perspective. In this context, it is required to revitalize the remodeling rather than the reconstruction. In order to reach this objective, this research aims at identifying the user-oriented performance for the housing industry and developing the new technologies. It is expected that the result of this research can contribute to more revitalize the remodeling as tying researches in terms of design, structure, equipment, and construction.

The purpose of the this research is to find out what basic factors of aging for korean elderly(above 65years old). First of all, 90 preliminary questions were developed from 551 questionnaires. In addition, some practices of the composition factors were carried out from another 552 seniors and additional tests were tried for composition validity, certified validity and successful aging standards from other 399 elders. The survey showed that the standard of the successful aging for korean elderly, which was composed of 47 questions, displayed satisfaction of everyday life, off-spring's success, psychological support, positive activity. sense of self effectiveness, mental stability, satisfaction of spousal relationship and family support. The reliability of the Validation of Successful Aging for Korean Elderly showed high internal consistency of 0.932. It is also verified that the relationship between the factors and the questions has statistically meaningful, which makes it possible to confirm the reliability of the structure of the factors.

The method in this study, which is more efficiency than the existing method, propose the optimal rehabilitation model based on the deterioration prediction of the laying pipe by using the deterioration survey method of the water distribution system. The deterioration prediction model divides the deterioration degree of each pipe into 5 degree by using the probabilistic neural network. Also, the optimal residual durability is estimated by the calculated deterioration degree in each pipe and pipe diameter. The optimal rehabilitation model by integer programming base on the shortest path can calculate a time and cost of maintenance, rehabilitation, and replacement. Also, the model is divided into budget constraint and no budget constraint. Consequently, the model proposed by the study can be utilized as the quantitative method for the management of the water distribution system.

The purpose of this study is to provide basic data for developing effective intervention methods to improve the quality of life by identifying the factors that affect the quality of life of the baby boomers. A descriptive survey research was conducted with the research subjects, 145 baby boomer women who lived in Island J from June 1 to June 30, 2018. The analysis of quality of life had positive correlations with health condition, family relationship satisfaction, retirement preparedness, age, aging anxiety, and showed negative correlations with family relationship satisfaction, and aging anxiety. Therefore, this research is expected to provide useful materials to develop efficient mediation programs in various areas for positive preparation for the golden age and improved family relationship.

The purpose of this paper is to pay attention to the problems of the elderly in our society, which is facing an aged society, to understand the lives of the elderly and to recognize the need for retirement and death preparation. It reviews and analyzes the story of So-young, the main character of the movie "Killing Woman," according to the context of the work. The narrative of the film illustrates the problems of suffering for the elderly, such as poverty, disease, dementia, loneliness, and fear of death. In the face of the ultra-aged era, institutional supplementation measures for underprivileged senior citizens at the national level should be established, and social interest and safety nets should be secured, and specific retirement preparations are needed personally. Furthermore, support for research and education of old age preparation education programs and death education programs to prepare for retirement and death should be continuously provided.

최근 몇 년 동안 기후변화에 대응하기 위한 탄소중립 혹은 저탄소 운영의 중요성이 강조되어왔다. 상수도 관망은 직접적인 탄소 배출 시설물은 아니지만, 상수도 관망의 운영 그리고 구성요소의 제조부터 폐기까지의 전 생애주기 동안 막대한 양의 에너지를 사용하는데, 이러한 에너지의사용이 탄소 배출에 간접적인 영향을 주는 것으로 알려져 있다. 특히 수자원공사에 따르면, '17년 기준 수도사업 관련 전기 사용에 따른 간접 배출이 70만tCO2eq에 이르는 것으로 보고되고 있어, 에너지의 효율적인 운영 및 자산관리 체계의 필요성이 커지고 있는 실정이다. 상수도 관망의 에너지 효율에 영향을 주는 요인은 크게 구성요소의 노후와 누수로 구분할 수 있다. 본 연구에서는 상수도 관망 관로 별 노후와 누수 여부를 판단하여 교체 전략을 수립할 수 있는 자산관리 모형을 제안하고 관로별 에너지 효율을 시각화하여 전반적인 자산관리에 근거를 제시하고자 한다. 모형은 최적화 기법을 통한 관로별 기능적 노후도 산정 및 누수 탐지, 관만 내 누수 지역화, 에너지 효율 시각화 등 총 3개의 모듈로 구성되어 있다. 제안한 모형은 고도의 차이가 큰 국내 D시 가상 관망에 적용하였다. 해당 관망에 다양한 관로의 노후 및 누수 상황을 가정하여 가상의 데이터를 생성하고 이를 토대로 관로별 기능적 노후와 누수 조건을 고려하여 해당 모형을 검증한다. 또한, 노후와 누수에 따른 가상 상황별 관로의 자산관리 의사결정 예시를 제공하여 향후 모형의 활용에 대한 가이드 라인을 제시한다. 마지막으로 관망 내 설치된 감압밸브를 터빈으로 전환하여 관망 운영 단계에서 무의미하게 소산되는 열에너지를 회수하는 방안을 검증하였다. 최적화 기법을 통해 비용 대비 최적 터빈 설치 지역을 선정하였고 향후 터빈 설치에 고려해야 할 사항을 정리한다. 본 연구에서의 결과는 향후 종합적인 저탄소형 상수도 관망을 위한 초석을 제공할 것으로 기대한다.

This study aims to look at the factors affecting later-life expectation of semi-older adults. Total of 323 participants aged from 50 to 64 was used for analysis from the data of 'Korean's Perception on Aging Society', which was conducted on behalf of Initiative for Humanities' Research and Education, funded by National Research Foundation of Korea. Multiple regression analysis was used for analysis, and the results are as follows. First, later-life expectation of semi-older adults appeared to be high. Second, the significant factors were prejudice towards the elderly and social solidarity. That is, participants with lower prejudice towards the elderly and higher trust and solidarity with society showed greater later-life expectation. Based on the results of this study, future research directions and implications for policy and practice were suggested.
