The contractors which execute the design-build project have difficulties in design management and contract administration in the pre-construction phase because they have managed construction projects focused on only construction phase so far. Moreover, they have to manage the design development stage without any contingency following-up various design revisions from the design reviews of outside experts. Therefore, the design management in the design development stage is a critical success facto. of the design-build project. The objective of this study is to structure the problems in the management skill for design development phase in the domestic design-build projects and to suggest a design development management method to settle the problems. To achieve these objectives, this study 1) analyzes the prior studies about the design-build procurement methods, 2) designs and performs a case study to embody the problems of the domestic design-build projects, and 3) proposes a method of design development management by analyzing the results of case study and interviewing experts.

A total of 19 elevators for evacuation were installed in the Lotte World Tower and it is planned to operate the shuttle using the manual key from five refuge floors to the 1st floor in an emergency. In the event of a fire or other disaster, it is necessary to conduct intensive analysis to determine how much RSET reduction could be achieved using the evacuation elevator compared to the existing evacuation plans. When the optimal transportation sharing ratio by the evacuation elevators was 40% at the Lotte World Tower, the RSET of the evacuation scenario in parallel with the elevators in the entire building was calculated to be 1 hour and 2 minutes. The RSET of a conventional evacuation scenario (Walking along the stairs without using the elevators) was calculated to be 1 hour 29 minutes, therefore, the former evacuation scenario were found to have a shortening effect of approximately 27 minutes compared to the latter. On the other hand, to maintain this effect, each part of the evacuation route using the elevator must have the capability to protect the evacuee from any hazards caused by fires, such as smoke, flame, and radiant heat during the evacuation. Moreover, the evacuation route should be continuous from the residence position of the elevator user to the final evacuation site, and be recognized easily.

The purpose of this study is to identify the conflict frames in the process of designating the national geopark, among local residents, geology experts, and local public officials. For this purpose, the progress of the public hearing on the implementation of the national geopark in Buan and Gochang were recorded with prior consent from the participants and transferred in text form. Subsequently, we developed a reference frames for analyzing conflict frames through literature review, and analyzed the conflict frames by three researchers based on this. These analyzed conflict frames were again analyzed by using semantic network analysis. The results are as follows. In the Buan area, 'Sagree' frame, 'Snot' frame, and 'Sdisagree' frame showed high eigenvector centrality, and 'Gharm' frame and 'Cmeconomy' frame were closely connected to the 'Snot' frame located at the center of the semantic network. In the Gochang area, 'Aresource' frame, 'Cmexample' frame, and 'Gharm' frame showed high eigenvector centrality, and 'Gharm' frame and 'Cmproblemsolution' frame were closely connected to the 'Snot' frame located at the center of the semantic network. Through these results, we could see that there is still the conflict about the certification of national geopark between stakeholders in Buan, and that Gochang's stakeholders are proudly aware of their own resources. The Buan's stakeholders focused on economic gains in resolving conflicts, while Gochang's stakeholders focused on problem solving. This result of this study provides information in conflict from the national geopark in other regions.

The purpose of this study was to evaluate the evaluation of long - term care institutions (evaluation rating, evaluation rating, suitability of evaluation index), quality of service of caregivers, Quality satisfaction, life satisfaction, and facility choice. After receiving the IRB, in January and February of 2018, the survey was completed for 79 long-term care institution managers, 381 nursing care workers, and 381 elderly people. The survey carried out an allocation sample reflecting the 2015 long - term care (facility benefit) evaluation results. The results of this study are as follows. First, it is found that the institutional evaluation (evaluation level, change of evaluation level, recognition of suitability of the index) has a greater impact on the quality of life of the elderly, appear. However, the intention of reselecting the facility after discharge was more influenced by the quality of services of caregivers. Therefore, except for the intention to reschedule the facility, it can be said that the evaluation of the National Health Insurance Corporation was partially validated.

Autonomous driving vehicles recognize the surroundings through various sensors mounted on the vehicle and control the vehicle based on the collected information. The level of autonomous driving technology is improving due to the development of sensor technology and algorithms that process collected data, but the implementation of perfect autonomous driving technology has not been achieved. To overcome these limitations, through autonomous cooperative driving centered on infrastructure. In this study, developed a position correction sign that provides a reference for positioning of autonomous vehicles. First of all, an analysis was performed on the current status of positioning technology for autonomous driving. And measure the number of point clouds for the 1st sample consisting of two square reflective surfaces and 2nd sample that increased the vertical length of each reflective surface. Experimental results show that both primary and secondary products are installed at least 15 m apart It could be recognized as a sensor, and it was confirmed that the secondary production that increased the length of the top and bottom had a higher number of point clouds than the primary production and better expressed the shape of the facility.

Recognizing the importance of abductive inquiry in Earth science, some theoretical approaches that deploy abduction have been researched. And, it is necessary that the abductive inquiry in a geological field excursion as a vivid locale of Earth science inquiry should be researched. We developed a geological field trip based on the abductive learning model, and investigated students' abductive inference, thinking strategies used in those inferences, and the impact of a teacher's pedagogical intervention on students' abductive inference. Results showed that students, during the field excursion, could accomplish abductive inference about rock identification, process of different rock generation, joints generation in metamorpa?ic rocks, and terrains at the field trip area. They also used various thinking strategies in finding appropriate rules to construe the facts observed at outcrops. This means that it is significant for the enhancement of abductive reasoning skills that students experience such inquiries as scientists do. In addition, a teacher's pedagogical interventions didn't ensure the content of students' inference while they helped students perform abductive reasoning and guided their use of specific thinking strategies. Students had found reasoning rules to explain the 01: served facts from their wrong prior knowledge. Therefore, during a geological field excursion, teachers need to provide students with proper background knowledge and information in order that students can reason rues for persuasive abductive inference, and construe the geological features of the field trip area by the establishment of appropriate hypotheses.

This study aimed to improve customer perception of Prunus mume through analysis of amygdalin contents according to changes in variety, harvest time, and fermentation conditions. Five Prunus mume domestic cultivars were harvested at five harvest times. We compared cyanogenic glucosides in four types of fruits on the market. For amygdalin contents in seeds and flesh of Prunus mume by variety and harvest time, seeds contained higher amygdalin contents than flesh with time. As Prunus mume ripened, both amygdalin contents in seed and flesh increased. However, the rate of increase gradually decreased. For prunasin contents in Prunus mume, we determined that the dramatic increase in amygdalin from May 3 to 19 was due to amygdalin synthesis from prunasin. Moreover, in the case of fermented Prunus mume, we observed lower amygdalin content as the sugar ratio and fermentation time increased until around 90 days, followed by a decrease. Furthermore, we analyzed alteration of organic acids in Prunus mume and fermented solution based on analysis of amygdalin content in four other market fruits. Amygdalin was detected at $252.37{\pm}2.3$, $22.01{\pm}0.31$, and $8.75{\pm}0.14mg$ per 100 g in plums, peaches, and grape seeds, respectively. In flesh of plums and peaches, amygdalin contents were detected at $84.14{\pm}0.26$ and $7.54{\pm}0.06mg$ per 100 g, respectively. These results suggest scientific improvements for consumption and breeding lines.

Male Mongolian gerbils $(60{\sim}80g)$ were given DL-difluoromethylornithine (DFMO; 250mg/kg, ip) and methylglyoxal bis(guanylhydrazone) (MGBG; 50 mg/k, ip), respectively, 1 h prior to transient (7 min) occlusion of bilateral common carotid arteries (OBC7) and a daily dose of one of them for 6 days after recirculation, and the polyamine contents, activities of ornithine and S-adenosylmethionine decarboxylases (ODC and SAM-DC), and light microscopic findings of the hippocampus were evaluated. The hippocampal putrescine (PT) levels of the control gerbils treated with saline (STGr), markedly increased after OBC7, showing a peak level at 24 h after recirculation. The peak PT level was reduced in DFMO treated gerbils (DTCr) and in MGBG treated gerbils (MTGr). And 7 days after recirculation, the PT level of DTGr was decreased to about 75% of the PT level in the sham operated group (nonTGr) and to about 55% of the STGr level, respectively. The hippocampal spermidine (SD) level of STGr tended to decline, showing the lowest value at 8 h after recirculation. But the spermidine (SD) level of DTGr was somewhat higher at 8 h after OBC7 than those of STGr and MTGr The hippocampal spermine (SM) levels of all the experimental groups were little changed for 7 days after OBC. OBC7 markedly increased the hippocampal ODC activity. reaching a maximum (about 3 times higher than preischemic level) at 8 h and rapidly recovered to the control value by 24 h in STGr gerbils, and the OBC7-induced increase of ODC activity was significantly attenuated by DFMO or MGBG treatment. Whereas OBC7 induced a rapid decrease of the hippocampal SAMDC activity follwed by gradual recovery to the preischemic level, and the decrease of the SAMDC activity was slightly attenuated by DFMO or MGBG treatment. 7 Days after OBC7 the histological finding of the hippocampal complex stained with cresyl violet showed an extensive delayed neuronal damage in the CA1 region and to a lesser extent, in the dentate gyrus, sparing the CA3 region. And the neuronal death was aggevated by DFMO but significantly attenuated by MGBG. The immunochemical reactivity of hippocampus to anti-GFAP antibody was significantly increased in the CA1 region and to a lesser extent, in the dentate gyrus 7 days after OBC7, but was little changed in the CA3. And the increase of the anti-GFAP immunoreactivity was moderately enhanced by DFMO and significantly suppressed by MGBG. These results suggest that the polyamine metabolism may play a modulatory role in the ischemic brain damage.

Background/Aims : The increasing use of diagnostic and therapeutic interventional radiology calls for greater consideration of radiation exposure risk to radiologist and radiological technician, and emphasizes the proper system of radiation protection. This study was designed to assess the effect of a protective grass shield. Methods : A protective grass was following data depth, 0.8 cm; width, 100 cm; length, 100 cm, lead equivalent, 1.6 mmPb. The protective shield was located between the patient and the radiologist. Thirty patients (13 male and 17 female) undergoing interventional radiology between September 2010 and December 2010 were selected for this study. The dose of radiation exposure was recorded with or without the protective grass shield at the level of the head, chest, and pelvis. The measurement was made at 50 cm and 150 cm from the radiation source. Results : The mean patient age was 69 years. The mean patient height and weight was $159.7{\pm}6.7$ cm and $60.3{\pm}5.9$ kg, respectively. The mean body mass index (BMI) was $20.5{\pm}3.0$ kg/m2. radiologists received $1530.2{\pm}550.0$ mR/hr without the protective lead shield. At the same distance, radiation exposure was significantly reduced to $50.3{\pm}85.2$ mR/hr with the protective lead shield (p-value<0.0001). The radiation exposure to radiologist and radiological technician was significantly reduced by the use of a protective lead shield (p value <0.0001). The amount of radiation exposure during interventional radiology was related to the patient' BMI (r=0.749, p=0.001). Conclusions : This protective shield grass is effective in protecting radiologist and radiological technician from radiation exposure.
