The drybulk shipping market has high freight rate volatility in the chartering market and various and complex factors affecting the market. In the unstable economic situation caused by the COVID-19 pandemic in 2020, the BDI plunged due to a decrease in trade volume, but turned from the end of 2020 and maintained a booming period until the end of 2022. The main reason for the market change is the decrease in the available fleet that can actually be operated for cargo transport due to port congestion by the COVID-19 pandemic, regardless of the fleet and trade volume volatility that have affected the drybulk shipping market in the past. A decrease in the actual usable fleet due to vessel waiting at port by congestion led to freight increase, and the freight increase in charting market led to an increase in second-hand ship and new-building ship price in long-term equilibrium relationship. In the past, the drybulk shipping market was determined by the volatility of fleet and trade volume. but, in the future, available fleet volume volatility by pandemics, environmental regulations and climate will be the important factors affecting BDI. To response to the IMO carbon emission reduction in 2023, it is expected that ship speed will be slowed down and more ships are expected to be needed to transport the same trade volume. This slowdown is expected to have an impact on drybulk shipping market, such as a increase in freight and second-hand ship and new-building ship price due to a decrease in available fleet volume.

The objective of this research is to develop the impact monitoring techniques providing impact identification and damage diagnostics of smart composite laminates susceptible to impacts. This can be implemented simultaneously by using the acoustic waves by the impact loads and the acoustic emission waves from damage. In the previous research, we have discussed the impact location detection process in which impact generated acoustic waves are detected by PZT using the improved neural network paradigm. This paper describes the implementation of time-frequency analysis such as the Short-Time Fourier Transform (STFT) and the Wavelet Transform (WT) on the determination of the occurrence and the estimation of damage.

시화호 개발 시점은 1975년 농업진흥공사가 시화호 유역을 간척농지로 개발한다는 계획을 수립한 시점부터 잡을 수 있으나 건설교통부가 이 지역을 반월특수지역 개발구역으로 지정한 1986년 9월 27일로 보는 것이 타당할 것으로 본다. 1986년에 정부가 그렇게 지정한 목적은 이 지역을 방조제로 막아서 담수호를 만들어 농업용수를 공급하고 농지 조성과 수자원 확보를 기한다는 목적 및 그에 따른 수도권 인구 분산 및 도서 지역 균형 개발을 이루겠다는 것이었다. 그러나 1995년 4월 2억4천백85만 톤의 썩은 시화호 물을 서해로 당류하고 바닷물을 유입한 이래 2001년 2월 정부가 다시 해수호로 인정하기까지 이 호수는 숟한 우여 곡절과 정부의 잦은 정책 변경으로 자연 환경이 파괴되었으며 생태계 변화에 따른 인근 지역과 농작물에 많은 피해를 보았고 염색 공단에서 흘러나온 폐수로 인해 악취를 풍기는 등 오염이 심각해 완전히 실패로 돌아간 '환경실패대작'이라고 할 수 있다. 이렇게 된 데는 정책 집행 과정에서 환경오염 저해 요인에 대한 무사 안일한 대처, 비밀주의, 철저하지 못한 오폐수의 단속 등 정부 폭의 실책을 우선해서 말할 수 있다. 본 논문에서는 이런 것을 포함해서 시화호가 실패하게 된 여타 중요 요인에 대해서 알아보고 또 지속 가능한 활용방안 및 대책에 대해서 간략히 알아보고자 한다.

e-learning은 오프라인 교육에 비해 시간과 공간의 제한을 받지 않고, 반복학습이 가능하며, 비용이 저렴하다. 그러나 이러한 장점에도 불구하고 1990년대 말 도입되어 6년 이상 경과되었으나 아직 널리 보급되지 않고 있다. 본 연구에서는 e-learning이 갖는 다양한 장점에도 불구하고 왜 채택이 저조한가에 대한 원인을 찾고, 보급을 확산시킬 방안을 찾는데 목적이 있다. 이를 위해 e-learning 채택에 대한 선행연구를 검토하고 e-learning 채택자와 미채택자에 대한 인터뷰를 수행하였다. 결과적으로 유용성, 지속성: 재미, 반복성, 비용, 접근성, 학습동기, 즉시성 요인이 e-learning 채택에 영향을 미친다는 연구모델을 도출하였다 여기서 비용과 접근성은 기존 선행연구들과 반대의 가설을 제시하였다. 즉, e-learning은 오프라인에 비해 비용이 저렴하기 때문에 그리고 반복해서 학습할 수 있기 때문에 학습을 미루게 되어 오히려 채택을 저해한다는 것이다. 다중회귀분석을 통해 검증한 결과 즉시성은 채택되지 않았고, 비용이 저렴하기 때문에 그리고 반복해서 학습할 수 있기 때문에 e-learning을 채택하게 된다고 나타나, 본 연구의 가설은 성립되지 않고 기존 연구가설이 타당한 것으로 나타났다. 본 연구의 대상이 e-learning을 사용해본 경험이 비교적 많지 않은 사람을 대상으로 하였기 때문에 나타난 결과라 생각된다. 향후 e-learning을 6개월 이상 사용해본 사람들을 대상으로 연구해 볼 필요가 있다고 생각된다.

많은 기업들은 오늘날 치열한 경쟁 시장에서 효율적인 공급 사슬 관리를 통하여 경쟁적 우위를 확보하려 한다. 이러한 효율적인 공급 사슬 관리를 위해서는 공급 사슬상의 구성원들이 자신이 보유하고 있는 정보를 다른 구성원들과 공유하고 각자의 의사결정에 있어 이러한 공유된 정보를 효과적으로 반영하여야 할 것이다. 효과적이고 정확한 정보의 공유를 위해서는 공급 사슬 상에 속해 있는 구성원들의 적극적인 참여가 무엇보다 필요하다. 이러한 적극적 참여는 공유된 정보가 종국에는 자신에게 이익이 될 것이라는 믿음에 기반 하여야 할 것이다. 정보 공유를 하는 경우가 그렇지 않는 경우에 비하여 그 효과가 클 것이라는 것은 당연할 수 있다 그러나 정보 공유를 위해서 요구되는 투자비용과 서로 이질적인 구성원들 간에 협업을 통해 공통의 의사결정을 내리는데 야기될 수 있는 갈등 등을 고려할 경우 그 효과의 정도가 충분히 크지 않는 경우에는 서로의 정보를 공유하는 것이 이익이 될 것이라고 말하기 어려울 것이다. 정보 공유의 이익은 공급 사슬 환경에 따라 상이할 것이다. 본 연구에서는 어떤 환경에서 이러한 정보 공유에 따른 성과가 극대화 될 것인지, 혹은 반대로 미비한 결과를 나타낼 것인가에 대하여 시뮬레이션 실험을 통하여 분석하였다. 기존의 연구를 바탕으로 공급 사슬 환경 구성을 위한 3가지 환경 요인을 정의하고 각각의 환경요인에 변화에 따라 정보 공유를 통한 경우와 그렇지 않은 경우에 있어 어떤 성과를 내는지 알아보았다.

This study investigated the factors affecting the procedures of becoming a scientist. Interview was used as a research method for deep understanding of individual career choice procedures. Interviews for individual scientists were conducted for about 60 minutes in their offices and all the interviews were tape-recorded. A total of 34 scientists who received some representative science awards in Korea during 1990 - 2001 were sampled. They were all men. But the interview was conducted with 30 scientists. The investigation was based on the framework that was composed of the following four categories: personal ability, home environment, school environment, and sociocultural environment. And each category had several factors as follows: personal ability consisted of the meta-ability to figure out the aptitude and the self-ability and the achievement; home environment consisted of parents, brothers and sisters, relatives, and hobby; school environment consisted of teachers, friends, club activity; sociocultural environment consisted of event, mass media, social recognition and social prospect. From the analysis of the career choice procedure of the scientists it was appeared that the meta-ability for personal ability, the parental influence particularly by father for home environment, science teacher and professor for school environment, and social prospect for sociocultural environment were important. In conclusion, most of the scientists made an important decision for their future career when they were the 12th grade and 1st year in university, and they considered intrinsic factor such as self-interest and aptitude and extrinsic factor such as social prospect. However intrinsic factor related to science teacher and professor and extrinsic factor related to fathers' advice.

The purpose of this study is to provide basic information on clothing preference to help teachers suggest clothes that help students adapt better to school life, and to get basic data specific to Home Economics curricula and how teenagers' attitude toward clothes correlate with their conformity to school as a whole. The survey of 587 students was conducted between December 17-24, 2012 in Gwangju. The data was analyzed using the SPSS 18.0 for window program: frequency, means, factor analysis, cluster analysis, Chronbach's ${\alpha}$, t-test, and ANOVA. There were significant differences in the many adolescents's adapted to school life based on the clothing behavior conformity and the attitude toward the name-brand. The results showed that, if it is not extreme, adolescents had the more the clothing behavior conformity on peer & mass media than less, they did well adapt on school life. And the group of more preference for the name-brand clothing result in low school discipline adaptation but high peer and teacher relationship. In adaptation of learning, they were not different significantly based on attitudes toward the name brand.

The purpose of this study is to investigate phonetic realization of flap [r], one of the allophones of Korean /l/. Phonetic realization of a segment is affected by not only its neighboring segments but also its prosodic position in an utterance. This study examined how various prosodic positions affect the phonetic realization of [r]. Effects of the four prosodic positions on the phonetic realization of [r] were examined: utterance initial, Intonation Phrase initial, Accentual Phrase initial, and Accentual Medial positions. Word positional effect was also examined: word initial, medial, and final positions. Acoustic and statistical analyses showed that flap [r] was realized in a variety of phonetic forms: from sonorant(the most reduced form) to short stop(the least reduced form). It was shown that generally. word-initial position is stronger than word-medial position. It was also shown that in many cases, utterance-initial position and intonation-phrase-initial position are stronger than accentual-phrase-initial and accentual-phrase-medial positions. Sonorants were observed more often in the prosodically weaker portions. VOT duration was also shorter in accentual-phrase-initial and accentual-phrase-medial positions.
