Being engaged in the musical tasks needs cognitive skills to perceive musical sound, organize them into meaningful unit, store them in the memory and retrieve them when needed. These skills are also required for academic tasks indicating that there is positive correlation between skills for musical and academic tasks. Based on these findings, the study purported to examine whether the developed sessions can enhance cognitive skills which is composed of auditory information skills, which is composed of perceiving sounds, organizing them into groups based on the existing information or organization pattern, and short-term memory skills. Eighteen elementary students in 4, 5, and 6th grades have participated in the study. The study has administered Music Cognitive Skills Test(MCST) before and after implementing music therapy sessions. The MCST consisted of five parts, first one measuring the rhythm imitating skills, second, measuring the melodic imitation skills, third, measuring discriminative skills in identifying higher pitch, fourth, measuring discriminative skills in identifying identical chords, and lastly, measuring the tone retention skills. The results indicated that there was statistical difference between the pre and post test in rhythm and melody imitation skills. Because reproduction of perceived rhythm patterns requires memory skills, imitating patterns are considered cognitive skills. Also melody is defined adding spatial dimension to the rhythm which is temporal concept. Being able to understand melodic pattern and to reproduce the pattern also requires cognitive skills. The subjects have shown significant improvement in these two areas. In other areas, there were definite increase of scores, however, no significant differences. The study also explores interpretation of these results and also observed consistencies among the participants in completing the musical tasks.

We fabricated a 3D knee joint model through the imaging processing. The 3D shape information is different depends on specific conditions when the shape of real knee joint is extracted from CT/MRI sliced images. The two types of joint models were fabricated by using 3D printer in order to analysis of joint movement by slight difference of 3D shape information. The compressive force experiments were performed by using knee joint model. As the results, the compressive forces were changed with respect to the difference of geometry. Consequently, feasibility test should be performed before developing biomimetic bioreactor.

2017년 5월 필자는 황비창천명 항해도문 고려 동경에 새겨진 배가 기존에 알려진 것과 달리 고려의 배가 아닐 가능성이 있음을 입증하였다. 황비창천명 항해도문 고려 동경의 원 도안은 북송대에 유래하여 금대에 크게 유행한 뒤 무역을 통해 고려에 유입되어 크게 유행하였다. 따라서 우리나라에서 출토된 황비창천명 항해도문 고려 동경은 중국에서 유래한 원도안을 모방하여 재주조, 변형, 재창조한 것이므로 뒷면에 새겨진 배는 고려의 배라기 보다는 중국의 배라고 보아야 한다는 것이다. 그러나 국립중앙박물관과 국립대구박물관에 소장된 삼족오문 고려 동경(덕수 4927; 덕3194)에 새겨진 배는 평면형 저판 및 선수미, 중첩된 삼판, 최상부 삼판에 보이는 가룡목의 흔적 등 여러 면에서 원양항해용 평저선형 고려선박으로 볼 수 있다. 흥미로운 사실은 황비창천명 항해도문 동경이 기원지인 중국에 비해 고려에서 널리 모방, 변형, 재창조되어 활발하게 주조 및 유통되었다는 점이다. 유리판(于力凡)의 견해를 받아들인다면, 황비창천명 항해도문 동경은 북송의 휘종(徽宗)(재위 1100-1125) 황제의 성덕(聖德)을 찬양(讚揚)할 목적으로 주조되었다. 그러나 이배근의 견해를 원용하면, 고려에서는 항해도문안을 태조 왕건의 조부인 작제건(作帝建)의 설화로 해석하여 태조 왕건을 룡손(龍孫)으로 지체를 높이기 위한 상징물로 활용했을 개연성이 있다. 이것이 황비창천명 항해도문 동경이, 북송과 금을 통해 유입되었음에도 불구하고, 고려에서 이를 모방 및 변형하고 독창적으로 재창조하여 널리 유통되게 된 사회문화적 배경이 되었을 수 있다. 이는 차후의 연구를 통해 밝혀내야 할 과제다.

Most of the metaheuristics are made by imitating the action of the animals. In this paper, we proposed Mine Algorithm. The Mine Algorithm is a metaheuristic that imitates the action of the human being. Speaking of search, the field in which the know-how and the heuristics of the human being are melted best is the mining industry. In the Mine Algorithm we formalize the action pattern of the human being by focusing the mine business. The Mine Algorithm uses various searching techniques fluently and shows equally good performance for broad problems. That is, it has good generality. We show the improved generality of the Mine Algorithm by the comparing experiments with the conventional metaheuristics.

This paper was researched the straight cruise of fish robot according to biological mimic, and it was compared the proposed method which was considered up to 7th order components in fourier series of Liu's tail motion function with the approximate method which was used general sine function by simulation. If fish robot has a large number of links and if the length of tail link is long. The end rotary joint trajectory of tail motion function generally is different from sine function. Therefore The approximate method which expresses tail motion trajectories as fundamental component in fourier series has a problem. Through the computer simulation, the proposed method showed 10% excellent propulsion and velocity than the conventional method.

The imitation processed cheese (IPC), formulated with delactosed non fat dry milk (DENFDM) only, showed the smallest melting area. Calcium caseinate sample showed the largest spread. Satistically protein source as a major ingredient for the IPC yielded significantly different melting areas. In a similar fashion, initial melting temperature was markedly and significantly influenced by protein source. In effect of addition of DENFDM on microstructure of IPC analog revealed that as the fraction of DENFDM was decreased, the network was much more uniform and the fat globules were also better dispersed compared to DENFDM cheese analog. Therefore the results of this study help predict that melting and microstructural characteristics are largely but not solely dependent on the protein source. The DENFDM has a potential beneficial effect as a partial replacement of caseinate in the formation of IPC to characteristic close to processed cheese.

The purpose of this study is to investigate the relationships between institutional pressures and IT investment decision making of management. To analyze the proposed model, we distribute survey questionnaires to mid-size IT firms and collect data from them. Furthermore, the proposed model was tested by PLS(Partial Least Squares) technique. We found that coercive pressure and normative pressure have an effect on mimetic pressure. However, these two pressures do not influence the IT investment decision making. The mimetic pressure has an effect on the IT investment decision making. The conclusions and implications are discussed.

This study explores the organic form generation method, which reflects the evolving biomimetic approaches converging in fashion technology and considers the characteristics of the organic relationship between the body and the clothing to be represented in contemporary fashion. A literature review on biomimetic architecture and design-related theory and a case study on biomimetic fashion were both conducted. Images, articles, and data related to biomimicry fashion and clothing, including the increase in virtual fashion cases around 2020, were analyzed based on the literature review. Biomimicry was used to derive interdisciplinary similarities in the organic morphogenesis principle, and the result was categorized as a network system, folds and unfolds, pneumatic structures, auxetic growth, and membranes. The biomimetic fashion characteristics, including externalization of the body's interior, expansion of the body structure and silhouette, body protection, independence from the body, and post-human expression through virtualization, were analyzed. Morphogenetic processes performed through biomimetic vision are expected to aid in generating research on the possibility of mass production or popularization in the future through various experimental technical studies.

Webtoon is the most popular cultural contents representing contemporary Korea. This study explores the cultural aspects of participatory culture surrounding Webtoon, and reveals the cultural implications of webtoon in contemporary Korea. Particularly, this study notes that the engagement of the participatory culture is formed from the user-generated images and analyzes the reproduction patterns of them. Chapter 2 analyzes the mimicking process of user-generated images based on the 'meme' concept. Especially based on the variation degree of text or image, the user-generated images could be classified into three types of 'completely variant', 'partly variant', and 'completely same'. Users use these images as one of the fun factor by transplanting them into daily messenger conversation. Chapter 3 reveals the cultural meaning which is derived from the process of user-generated images creation. In particular, this study notes that most of the user-generated images are mimicking the main character of the original webtoon, and analyzes the underlying desire of the mass based on the literary theory of Northrop Frye. The main readers of webtoon are petit-bourgeois living in Korean metropolitan, and the user-generated images also reflects the daily lives of these ordinary people. User-generated images of webtoon are imitating the original contents in a way of replicating or mutating the images or texts. Also, they are consumed and enjoyed as an amusing code among users. Especially by mimicking the appearance of the main character in a self-reflective way, they appeal to day-to-day sympathy of users. In that user-generated images reveal the desire of the public living in contemporary Korea, this study examines the cultural implication of webtoon.
