To investigate the influence of the Hf concentration and the annealing effect in $Co_{1-x}Hf_x$(X=0.16, 0.24 at.%) systems, ferromagnetic resonance experiments have been carried out. Spin wave resonance spectra for all samples consist of several volume modes and one (or two) surface mode. It is suggested that both surfaces of the film have a perpendicular hard axis to the film plane (negative surface anisotropy). The surface anisotropy $K_{s2}$ at substrate-film interface is varied slowly from -0.07 to -0.32 erg/$\textrm{cm}^2$ and the surface anisotropy $K_{s1}$ at film-air interface is varied from 0.18 to -0.47 erg/ $\textrm{cm}^2$ with increasing annealing temperature in the amorphous $Co_{84}Hf_{16}$ thin films. Also, the surface anisotropy $K_{s2}$ is varied slowly from -0.31 to -0.41 erg/$\textrm{cm}^2$ and the surface anisotropy $K_{s1}$is varied from -0.19 to -0.60 erg/$\textrm{cm}^2$ with increasing annealing temperature in the amporphous $Co_{84}Hf_{16}$ thin films. We conjecture that the variation of surface anisotropy $K_{s1}$ is due to the increase of Co concentration resulted from Hf oxidation for low temperature annealing(150~175 $^{\circ}C$) and the diffusion of Co atoms near the film surfaces for high temperature annealing (200~225 $^{\circ}C$).

This study analyzed Korean Fair Trade Commission's judgemental cases of cartels in telecommunications and media industry and presented the following results. First, cartels were formed frequently in multi-channel broadcasting industry, telecommunications industry, movie industry, and newspaper industry. In addition, price-fixing were observed in almost all subfield of telecommunications and media industry. Second, administrative guidance facilitated more opportunities for collusion in the telecommunications industry than in the media industry. Third, the telecommunications and media industry, similar to overall domestic industries, had a high proportion of hard-core cartels. Fourth, the depth of judgemental case in evaluating agreements among competitors was generally low, even though detail evaluations were found in the cases of large fines. Fifth, the overall level of sanctions was relatively low.

Substrate integrated waveguide(SIW) constructed by two metal planes and conductive vias in a dielectric substrate, have all the conductors connected each other and hence, cannot be biased by DC sources. We propose a new folded corrugated substrate integrated waveguide(FCSIW) that can be DC-biased. Since the proposed FCSIW replaces the SIW conducting vias by folded open subs, it can supply the DC sources. The FCSIW has better transmission characteristics and 30 % less width than the common corrugated substrate integrated waveguide(CSIW) having a serious leakage generation problem. The FCSIW shows better insertion loss(1.49 dB) compared with that(3.08 dB) of the CSIW measured for 154 mm length devices and averaged at 9~15 GHz frequency band. No leakage has been observed from crosstalk measurements of the FCSIW.

The share of self-employment shows a downward trend until 1990 and then an upward trend since then. The upward trend is mainly due to more employers and more male self-employed, which implies that self-employment plays a significant role as an alternative form of employment. This paper examines whether self-employment can be a bridge between no work and wage work in the processes entering into or exiting labor market, and if so, what determines the choice of self-employment as a bridge, using the data from the Korea Labor and Income Panel Survey(Wave 1 to Wave 5). Empirical analysis employing the probit model shows that the older, female, the less educated, and persons with bad health are more likely to choose self-employment as a bridge in the exit process and that they are less likely to choose it as a bridge in the entry process. Business cycle has a statistically significant negative effect on its role of bridge employment in the exit process but not in the entry process. The result implies that, in the ageing society, labor market policy should consider self-employment as a better alternative than wage work for the aged.

Damage to the highly pathogenic avian influenza virus(H5N1) continues to increase, but there is a lack of antiviral research. In this study, we analyze antiviral properties on H5N1 by coating Cu/TiO2 photocatalyst on polyethylene films. The specimen was manufactured a photocatalyst master batch and coated both sides of the 3-layer polyethylene fabric at 280℃ from the extrusion coating machine. The results showed a 99.9% decrease in the Staphylococcus aureus and Escherichia coli. In particular, H5N1 type highly pathogenic avian influenza viruses, which is capable of human infection, has been found to decrease 99.9% within five minutes of contact with Cu/TiO2 films. Antibacterial effects of films coated with photocatalyst are known, but this study also confirmed the antiviral effects.

The openness of residential space directly affecting lighting, view, and ventilation leads to the variation of open floor plan type in apartment construction project. This study intends to substantiate the effect to the apartment price by design property of open floor plan based on actual design information of apartment and price. The open floor plan type and associated design property, and actual transaction price of apartment have been considered as variables for analysis by the hedonic price function model and artificial neural networks model. Research findings indicate that the openness affects the price of apartment positively and the three sides open plan is the most preferred with the highest price. This study aims to provide the implication to the developer in planning and design stage of apartment and the purchaser seeking the suitable price by floor plan design.

Prediction of the load-bearing capacity of an adhesive-bonded Joint is of practical importance for engineers. This paper introduces interface fracture mechanics approach to predict the load-bearing capacity of composite metal bonded joints. The adhesion strength of composite/steel bonding is evaluated in terms of the energy release rate of an interfacial crack and the fracture toughness of the interface. Virtual track closure technique (VCCT) is used to calculate energy release rates, and hi-material end-notched flexure (ENF) specimens are devised to measure the interfacial fracture toughness. Bi-material ENF specimens gave consistent mode II fracture toughness $(G_{IIc})$ values of the composite/steel interface regardless of the thickness of specimens. The critical energy release rates of double-lap joints showed a good agreement with the measured fracture toughness. Therefore. the energy-based interfacial fracture characterization can be a practical engineering tool for predicting the load-bearing capacity of bonded joints.

In this paper, we propose a horizontal/vertical calibration kit for calibrating a vector network analyzer(VNA) to measure the vertical connector pin. If the conventional calibration kit is used, we should change the arm for a probe or need an assistant device and it takes a long time. In addition there is a risk of precision degradation caused by the position change of the probe tip sensitive to the surroundings. We suggest a 4-port vertical calibration kit to make up for the aforementioned shortcomings. The calibration kit was manufactured for the SOLT calibration method. 'Short', 'Open', and 'Load' are available in the horizontal plane, 'Thru' is available not only in the horizontal plane on the two planes of a PCB, but in the vertical plane between the two planes according to the positions of the probes. We complemented the conventional calibration kit to make a vertical calibration kit to be used for the vertical measurement method. We compared and analysed their reflection/transfer characteristics of the SOLT calibration standards of the proposed calibration kit and conventional one, we get a ${\pm}0.1$ dB differences of transfer characteristics in the range from 300 kHz to 8.5 GHz. In order to demonstrate usefulness, and we performed a case study for horizontal and vertical cases, and compared the results of the proposed calibration kit and conventional one.

Recently, the use of lightweight panels in building structures has been increasing. Of the various lightweight panel types, styrofoam sandwich panels are inexpensive and are excellent in terms of their insulation capacity and their constructability. However, sandwich panels that include organic material are quite vulnerable to fire, and thus can numerous casualties in the event of a fire due to the lack of time to vacate and their emission of poisonous gas. On the other hand, lightweight foamed concrete is excellent, both in terms of its insulation ability and its fire resistance, due to its Inner pores. The properties of lightweight concrete is influenced by foaming agent type. Accordingly, this study investigates the insulation properties by foaming agent type, to evaluate the possibility of using light-weight foamed concrete instead of styrene foam. Our research found thatnon-heating zone temperature of lightweight foamed concrete using AP (Aluminum Powder) and FP (animal protein foaming agent) are lower than that of light-weight foamed concrete using AES (alkyl ether lactic acid ester). Lightweight foamed concrete using AES and FP satisfied fire performance requirements of two hours at a foam ratio 50, 100. Lightweight foamed concrete using AP satisfied fire performance requirements of two hours at AP ratio 0.1, 0.15. The insulation properties were better in closed pore foamed concrete by made AP, FP than with open pore foamed concrete made using AES.

The internal short-circuit between cathodes and anodes has been known to be a critical concern for the safety failures of lithium-ion batteries, which is strongly influenced by the thermal stability of separators. In this study, to effectively suppress the internal short-circuit failures, we developed a new composite separator with the improved thermal stability compared to conventional polyolefin-based separators. The composite separators were prepared by introducing a ceramic coating layer ($Al_2O_3$/PVdF-HFP) onto both sides of a polyethylene (PE) separator. The microporous structure of ceramic coating layers is determined by controlling the phase inversion of coating solutions and becomes more developed with the increase of nonsolvent (water) content. This structural change of ceramic coating layers was observed to greatly affect the thermal stability as well as the electrochemical performance of composite separators, which was systematically discussed in terms of phase inversion.
