The long term integrity of concrete cask is very important for spent nuclear fuel dry storage system. However, there are serious concerns about early deterioration of concrete cask from creaking and corrosion of reinforcing steel by chloride ion because the cask is usually located in seaside, expecially by combined deterioration such as chloride ion and heat, carbonation. This study is to investigate the relation between temperature and chloride ion diffusion of concrete. Immersion tests using 3.5% NaCl solution that were controlled in four level of temperature, i.e. 20, 40, 65, and $90^{\circ}C$, were conducted for four months. The chloride ion diffusion coefficient of concrete was predicted based on the results of profiles of Cl- ion concentration with the depth direction of concrete specimens using the method of potentiometric titration by $AgNO_3$. Test results indicate that the diffusion coefficient of chloride ion increases remarkably with increasing temperature, and there was a linear relation between the natural logarithm values of the diffusion coefficients and the reciprocal of the temperature from the Arrhenius plots. Activation energy of concrete in this study was about 46.6 (W/C = 40%), 41.7 (W/C = 50%), 30.7 (W/C = 60%) kJ/mol under a temperature of up to $90^{\circ}C$, and concrete with lower water-cement ratio has a tendency towards having higher temperature dependency.

There have been a number of legal & policy studies on the affecting factors of big data utilization, but empirical research on the composition factors of personal information regulation or data combination, which acts as a constraint, has been hardly done due to the lack of relevant statistics. Therefore, this study empirically explores the priority of personal information regulation factors and data combination factors that influence big data utilization through Delphi Analysis. As a result of Delphi analysis, personal information regulation factors include in order of the introduction of pseudonymous information, evidence clarity of personal information de-identification, clarity of data combination regulation, clarity of personal information definition, ease of personal information consent, integration of personal information supervisory authority, consistency among personal information protection acts, adequacy punishment intensity in case of violation of law, and proper penalty level when comparing EU GDPR. Next, data combination factors were examined in order of de-identification of data combination, standardization of combined data, responsibility of data combination, type of data combination institute, data combination experience, and technical value of data combination. These findings provide implications for which policy tasks should be prioritized when designing personal information regulations and data combination policies to utilize big data.

Because of their nature as public facilities, demands that former military facilities be utilized for the public welfare are increasing, thereby leading to an increase in cases in which these military facilities are reestablished as parks. Cases in which former military bases were reestablished as public parks were analyzed; as a result, several implications were derived. First, the objectives of public park projects should be examined from the perspective of the concept of urban regeneration and regional revitalization. Moreover, it is necessary that profits are yielded and that regional identity and history are reproduced through reusing existing facilities as much as possible rather than entirely remodeling former military sites. As parks become larger in size, bases should be reorganized into complexes rather than single facilities or programs. It is also necessary that parks be established in stages considering the enormous expenses required for building public parks. Consequently, because the special characteristics of military facilities can lead to insufficient on-site investigation in the process of establishing parks, thereby incurring a vast amount of costs for design adjustment and contamination disposal, this should be considered in advance. A method of delegating the development rights to partial sites to private businesses and supplementing the costs of park establishment and maintenance with development benefits should be examined. In addition, given that there are various interests and stakes in former military bases, a method of operating a public-private cooperative decision-making organization during project execution should be considered. Finally, policies related to urban parks need to be improved in order to raise funds, expand profitable businesses, facilitate social services and sponsorship, and encourage the participation of trusts and non-profit organizations in park operation and management.

Recently, the active interaction control (AIC) system was proposed as a semi-active control system. The AIC system consists of a primary structure and an auxiliary structure. The objective of the AIC system is to control the response of the primary structure through engagement and disengagement between the primary and auxiliary structures. Previous switching control algorithms have been shown to be effective in reducing the response of the primary structure. However, they have the main drawback of requiring an excessive engagement-disengagement frequency and high interaction force. In this paper, the regions in which the switching is activated and the regions in which the switching is deactivated are described separately, to effectively determine the engagement or the disengagement. The general relationship between the switching regions and the deactivated switching regions selected according to the engagement-disengagement conditions is described within the newly-developed comprehensive switching framework. The proposed engagement-disengagement conditions are designed within a comprehensive switching framework, to reduce engagement-disengagement frequency and interaction force. Furthermore, the effect of a control sampling period on the AIC system is explained in terms of the engagement-disengagement frequency. The effectiveness of the proposed algorithms and the effect of the control sampling period are considered for a single degree of freedom model under free vibration. It is observed that increasing the duration of stay by using a large control sampling period prevents the AIC system from activating the possible chance of switching. The proposed algorithms are shown to be effective, both in restricting ineffective switching and in reducing interaction force.

Environmental and energy issues such as abnormal climate and depletion of fossil fuel due to global warming have emerged as a critical task to threaten human survival. As a result, interest in the Zero Energy Building is increasing as it is an innovative building that can significantly contribute to building energy reduction and greenhouse gas reduction. In the market, however, the added cost of construction is a major stumbling block to the revitalization of the Zero Energy certification. In this study, general private apartment complexes were selected for research, detailed elements for Zero Energy certification were presented based on the construction criteria for eco-friendly houses from the initial design stage, and the cost efficiency analysis of the components for certification were presented. It has been analyzed that only Grade 3 certification can be implemented in apartments due to technical level and physical limitations. Also, after reviewing the cost trend during the lifecycle cost, all expenses can be recovered within 13 years after completion only in the case of grade 5 of the Zero Energy Building. The additional costs proposed in the present study are reflected appropriately in the review of projects for apartments scheduled for order in the future to contribute to the revitalization of the Zero Energy Building certification.

The aging process in this country is underway at the fastest pace compared to those of the leading countries. On the other hand, preparing for retirement funds is more difficult than before due to the impact of slow interest rate and slow growth. The purpose of this study is to examine the necessity of providing various financial services in preparation for the future aging era. After analizing the various materials and utilizing a survey of the bank employees and the general public, we have found the followings. The replacement rate of this country, 55%, is much lower than the suggested level of World Bank, 75%. Also, the pension ratio in the income after retirement of this country is much lower compared to those of the States and Japan. The most people who participated in the survey needed ￦2,000 - ￦2,990 thousand for monthly living expenses after retirement. For the retirement funds, the higher the age the higher proportion of savings deposits they want, and the lower the age the higher proportion of insurance and pension products they want. Based on these analyses, the necessities of developing financial life planning which includes both financial and non-financial sides, retirement funds management according to age, revitalization of housing pension and developing diverse retirement funds are suggested.

The purpose of this study is to understand the characteristics of unburned carbon (UBC) and NOx emissions for pulverized coal when air staging combustion is applied. A two-staged drop tube furnace capable of applying air staging combustion was designed and installed. The combustion of sub-bituminous (Tanito) has been investigated. UBC and the NOx concentration were measured under various temperatures and stoichiometric ratios in unstaged and staged combustion. As a result, UBC decreased and the NOx concentration increased with an increase in stoichiometric ratio and temperature. In particular, the NOx reduction mechanism was activated when the temperature in the fuel rich zone increased. Both UBC and the NOx concentration decreased as the temperature increased in the fuel rich zone. A high NOx reduction effect was obtained, compared to the UBC increase, when the air staging technique was applied.

세계 반도체 시장은 컴퓨터 기능이 더해진 모바일 기기의 수요가 증가함에 따라 메모리반도체의 시장규모가 최근 빠른 속도로 증가했다. 특히 모바일 기기에서 저장장치 역할을 하는 비휘발성 반도체인 NAND Flash Memory는 스마트폰 및 태블릿PC 등 휴대용 기기의 수요 증가, SSD (Solid State Drive)를 탑재한 PC의 수요 확대, 서버용 SSD시장의 활성화 등으로 연평균 18.9%의 성장을 보이고 있다. 이러한 경제적인 배경 속에서 NAND Flash 미세공정 기술의 마지막 단계로 여겨지는 1Xnm 공정이 개발되었다. 그러나 1Xnm Flash Memory의 생산은 새로운 제조설비 구축과 차세대 공정 기술의 적용으로 제조비용이 상승하는 단점이 있다. 이에 따라 제조공정기술을 미세화하지 않고 기존의 수평적 셀구조에서 수직적 셀구조로 설계 구조를 다양화하는 기술이 대두되고 있는데 이 중 Flash Memory의 대용량화와 수명 향상을 동시에 추구할 수 있는 3D NAND 기술이 주목을 받게 되면서 공정기술의 변화도 함께 대두되고 있다. 3D NAND 기술은 기존라인에서 전환하는데 드는 비용이 크지 않으며, 노광장비의 중요도가 축소되는 반면, 증착(Chemical Vapor Deposition) 및 식각공정(Etching)의 기술적 난이도와 스텝수가 증가한다. 이 중 V-NAND 3D 기술에서 사용하는 박막증착 공정의 경우 산화막과 질화막을 번갈아 증착하여 30layer 이상을 하나의 챔버 내에서 연속으로 증착한다. 다층막 증착 공정이 비정상적으로 진행되었을 경우, V-NAND Flash Memory를 제조하기 위한 후속공정에 영향을 미쳐 웨이퍼를 폐기해야 하는 손실을 초래할 수 있다. 본 연구에서는 V-NAND 다층막 증착공정 중에 다층막의 두께를 가상 계측하는 알고리즘을 개발하고자 하였다. 증착공정이 진행될수록 박막의 두께는 증가하여 커패시터 관점에서 변화가 생겨 RF 신호의 진폭과 위상의 변화가 생긴다는 점을 착안하여 증착 공정 중 PECVD 장비 RF matcher와 heater에서 RF 신호의 진폭과 위상을 실시간으로 측정하여 데이터를 수집하고, 박막의 두께와의 상관성을 분석하였다. 이 연구 결과를 토대로 V-NAND Flash memory 제조 품질향상 및 웨이퍼 손실 최소화를 실현하여 제조 시스템을 효율적으로 운영할 수 있는 효과를 기대할 수 있다.

A smart business card printing system that automatically prints business cards requested by customers online is being activated. What matters is that the business card submitted by the customer to the system may be abnormal. This paper deals with the problem of determining whether the image of a business card has been abnormally rotated by adopting artificial intelligence technology. It is assumed that the business card rotates 0 degrees, 90 degrees, 180 degrees, and 270 degrees. Experiments were conducted by applying existing VGG, ResNet, and DenseNet artificial neural networks without designing special artificial neural networks, and they were able to distinguish image rotation with an accuracy of about 97%. DenseNet161 showed 97.9% accuracy and ResNet34 also showed 97.2% precision. This illustrates that if the problem is simple, it can produce sufficiently good results even if the neural network is not a complex one.

Landscape architecture is an indispensable professional service in building sustainable land and urban environments. The landscape architecture industry is closely related to the promotion of the health and welfare of the people, urban revitalization and residential environment improvement as well as job creation. Despite various public interest values of landscape architecture, the growth engine of the landscape architecture industry, which is supposed to improve the quality of landscape services, has stagnated. In 2015, the Landscape Architecture Promotion Act was enacted to provide a landscape architectural promotion facility and complex system to support revitalization through the integration of the landscape architecture industry. The purpose of this study is to suggest an improvement plan to enhance the effectiveness of the landscape architectural promotion facility and complex system. The results of the analysis are as follows: First, workers and experts in landscape architecture recognized the need for policies and projects to promote the landscape architecture industry. Second, the industrial types suitable for the landscape architectural promotion facility were landscape design, landscape maintenance and management, and landscape construction industry. Meanwhile the industrial types suitable for a landscape architectural promotion complex were landscape trees and landscape facilities production and distribution. Third, the expected effect of the designation of the landscape architectural facility was 'the increase of the business opportunity through the expansion of the network'. On the other hand, that of the landscape architectural promotion complex was 'the activation of various information sharing'. Fourth, 'the size of the local government landscape architecture industry and the capacity to cultivate' was the most important among the designation criteria of the landscape architectural promotion facility. As for that of the landscape architectural promotion complex, the 'feasibility of promotion plan' was the most crucial. Fifth, 'tax benefit and deductible exemption' was considered as a necessary support method for the activation of the landscape architectural promotion facility, and 'maintenance and management fee support' was recognized in the case of the landscape architectural promotion complex.
