The present study intends to characterize the DNA damage-inducible responses in yeast. The fission yeast, Schizosaccharomyces pombe was used in this study as a model system for higher eukaryotes. To study UV-inducible responses in S. pombe, five UV-inducible cDNA clones were isolated from S. pombe by using subtration hybridization method. To investigate the expression of isolated genes, UVI-155, the cellular levels of the transcripts were determined by Northern blot analysis after UV-irradiation. The transcripts of isolated gene (UVI-155) increased rapidly and reached maximum accumulation after UV-irradiation. Compared to the message levels of control, the levels of maximal increase were approximately 5 fold to UV-irradiation. In order to investigation whether the increase of UVI-l55 trascripts was a specific results of UV-irradiation, UVI-155 transcript levels were examined after treating the cells to mthylmethane sulfonate (MMS). The transcripts of UVI-155 were not induced by treatment of $0.25\%$ MMS. These results implied that the effects of damaging agents are complex and different regulatory pathways exist for the induction of these genes. To characterize the UVI-155 gene, gene deletion experiments were analyzed. The deleted strain was not well grown. This result indicated that the UVI-155 gene is essential for cell viability.

The RAD4 gene of Saccharomyces cerevisiae is essential for the incision step of UV-induced excision repair. A yeast RAD4 gene has been previously isolated by functional complementation. In order to identify the RAD4 homologous gene from fungus Coprinus cinereus, we have constructed cosmid libraries from electrophoretically separated chromosomes of the C. cinereus. The 13 C. cinereus chromosomes were resolved by pulse-field gel electrophoresis, hybridized with S. cerevisiae RAD4 DNA, and then isolated homologous C. cinereus chromosome. The insert DNA of the RAD4 homolog was contained 3.2 kb. Here, we report the characterization of fungus C. cinereus homolog of yeast RAD4 gene. Southern blot analysis confirmed that C. cinereus contains the RAD4 homolog gene and this gene exists as a single copy in C. cinereus genome. When total RNA isolated from C. cinereus cells was hybridized with the 1.2 kb PvuII DNA fragment of the S. cerevisiae RAD4 gene, a 2.5 kb of transcript was detected. In order to investigation whether the increase of transcripts by DNA damaging agent, transcripts levels were examined after treating the cells. The level of transcript did not increase by untraviolet light (UV). This result indicated that the RAD4 homologous gene is not UV inducible gene. Gene deletion experiments indicate that the RAD4 homologous gene is essential for cell viability.

본 연구는 운전자 특성 및 교통사고 발생유형에 따른 사고 심각도(Severity)를 분석함으로써 교통사고를 유발키 쉬운 운전자 집단과 사고 발생시 위험도가 높은 사고유형을 규명하고자 하였다. 교통사고 위험집단 분석을 위한 운전자 특성은 성별, 차종, 연령 등을 대상으로 하였으며, 사고유형별 심각도 분석은 사고유형을 여덟 가지로 분류하고, 결과의 신뢰성 확보를 위하여 안전벨트 착용여부를 추가하여 상해정도와의 관계를 비교하였다. 로그-선형 모형 및 로짓 모형을 사용하여 카테고리 자료를 분석하였으며, 그 결과 위험집단 분석에서는 '20세 미만의 이륜차 운전자', '41세에서 50세까지의 택시운전자'가 가장 위험한 것으로, 또한 남자보다는 여자가 승용차, 택시, 이륜차 등에 관계되었을 때 위험한 것으로 조사되었다. 사고유형과 심각도와의 관계에서는 정면충돌 사고와 앞지르기 시 우회전시 사고가 기여위험도(Odds Multiplier)가 매우 높아 부상 또는 사망사고와 연계될 가능성이 큰 것으로 나타났다. 따라서 교통사고의 예방과 사고발생시의 심각도 경감을 위해서는 교통사고 취약계층으로 분석된 위험집단에 대한 교통안전 교육 및 홍보가 강화되어야 하고, 정면충돌 사고와 앞지르기 시 우회전시 발생하는 사고를 줄일 수 있는 방안이 연구되어야 할 것이다.

This paper aims to analyze the characteristics of the contemporary Chinese fashion market and the competitiveness of Korean fashion brands in China. Fashion professionals experienced in both the Korean and Chinese fashion markets participated to investigate the Shanghai market and consumers. The results of in-depth interviews show that Shanghai is the most favorable city among Tier 1 cities for Korean fashion brands planning on entering into the Chinese market. Shanghai consumers are open to international brands and highly prefer newness in fashion. Contemporary menswear was selected as a potentially big market due to the increase of unique, young, upper-middle-class male consumers. The Korean fashion brands' strength is that they are capable of satisfying Shanghai consumers with excellent product planning and sensory design capabilities. Their disadvantage is that their brand recognition is weaker than that of global and international brands, and their ability to localize to the Chinese market is weak. The opportunity comes is from the Korean Wave, which is a positive for Korea's products and has good geographical access. The threat is that the Shanghai market is fiercely competitive; having access to many worldwide brands, and the competitiveness of Chinese brands is on the rise. To enter the Shanghai market, creative design ability, trendy product development, skill, and appropriate PR methods such as using Korean culture contents would be required to satisfy the young, powerful consumers in Shanghai.

This study will focus on research and analysis covering the period of time since the creation of the People's Republic of China to current day China, with an emphasis on 20-something year-old women living in Shanghai. In conducting this research, historical evidence of fashion was derived from books, photographs, and Internet resources pertaining to the specific periods of interest. Furthermore, each set of data has been organized in approximately decade-long segments that best reflect the transformation of Chinese fashion from 1949 to 2000. As a result of the countrywide emphasis placed on revitalization of the newly created Chinese state during the period of 1949 to 1965, detail to fashion was largely ignored, in preference to the successful upstart of a working economic foundation. This neglect of fashion is evident by the scarcity of new and daring styles during this period. The following the period of 1966 to 1977 ushered in a cultural revolution that was aptly demonstrated in the changing fashion tastes. When compared with the previous period, the blandness of clothing, authorized by the Chinese government clearly reflected the rules and regulations strictly enforced by a government mandate of conformity and obedience. These orthodox changes were so drastic, that women wearing these clothes could hardly be differentiated from men in the same style wear. After Mao Ze Dong's death in 1976 and the end of the sternest period of the Chinese Revolution, a new era of Chinese culture and fashion was made possible by a more lax and tolerant government. During the later palt of the seventies through the eighties, this new governmental policy fostered more openness and self-expression, both of which led to a newfound interest in expressing one's desires and personality through the clothes he or she chose to wear.

A wheeled armored vehicle is a military vehicle that has been developed to enhance combat capabilities and mobility for the army. The wheeled armored vehicle has a high center of gravity, and it operates on unpaved and sloped roads. Therefore, this vehicle has a high risk of rollover crashes. To design the interior of the military vehicle, the crew's safety during rollover crashes is an important factor. However, actual vehicle tests for design are extremely expensive. In this paper, nonlinear dynamic analysis is performed to simulate the rollover crashes and the passenger injury is assessed for a wheeled armored vehicle. The scope of this research is the rollover condition, FE modeling of the wheeled armored vehicle and the dummy, arrangement of dummies, assessment of passenger injuries, and simulation model for rollover crashes.

Underwater channels can be regarded as time-varying systems in view of the acoustical characteristics due to the fact that the characteristics of the channel are affected by the environmental and geometrical conditions. Especially in shallow water case, the surface and bottom conduct as a waveguide so echo effect due tu the multipath reflections are severe. Therefore in shallow water communications, it is very important to equalize the transmitted signals distorted by the underwater channels with time-varying multipath fading. In this paper an equalizer system which employs the frequency domain adaptive filter to equalize the channels using inverse modeling technique is introduced.
