This paper reports on analyzing the free and restrained shrinkage characteristic of ternary grout used cementitious admixture. In this study, the cementitious admixture was used such as fly ash, ziricania silica fume by combination of expansive additive (a, b) and shrinkage reducing agent. And a number of basic performance tests were conducted to investigate bleeding, volume change, fluidity and compressive strength behavior. According to the results, within appropriate mixing ratio, even the fluidity is not influenced by expansive additive and shrinkage reducing agent, the resistant properties of bleeding, volume change, shrinkage and compressive strength are increased. Comparing with plain grout, the free shrinkage reduced by a minimum of 29% which specimens are added expansive additive and shrinkage reducing agent. The combination of expansive additive a and shrinkage reducing agent is the most effective for reduction of shrinkage. And increasing the mixing ratio of expansive additive and shrinkage reducing agent extended cracking time. Nevertheless, combined addition of expansive additive a 2.0% and shrinkage reducing agent 0.50% has best shrinkage reduction behavior and not appeared cracking. From the above, the mixing ratio of 2.0% of expansive additive a and 0.50% of shrinkage reducing agent is high performance ternary grout for PSC bridge.

한 국가의 경쟁력은 여러 가지 생산요소들의 질적·양적 우위에 의해 결정되나, 그 중에서도 특히 기술이 체화된 인적자원이 경쟁력 확보의 핵심요소임은 재론의 여지가 없다. 과거 우리나라 급성장의 주요 원동력이었던 우수하고 풍부한 인력이 이제 더 이상 우리 경쟁력의 원천이 되지 못하고 있다. 무한경쟁시대를 이끌어갈 창의력과 지도력을 갖춘 고급기술인력이 부족하고, 우수한 기술인력이 과학기술계를 회피하고 있으며, 산업현장에서 실제문제를 해결할 수 있는 실천적 전문기술과 숙련된 기능을 제대로 갖춘 인력을 배출하지 못하고 있다. 이러한 기숙인력 양성의 문제들을 해결하기 위한 방안의 하나로서 일반대학과 별도로 기술인력양성을 전문으로 하는 학위과정 설치의 필요성이 대두되었으며, 1996년 교육개혁의 일환으로 단설대학원제도와 전문학위제도가 시행되기 시작하였다. 그동안 여러 분야에서 단설대학원 설립이 추진되었으며, 일부에서 운영이 시작되고 있으나 과학기술분야에서는 극히 일부의 사례만이 있을 뿐이고 아직 본격적으로 설립운영되고 있다고 보기 어렵다. 본고는 외국 공공연구기관에서 시행되는 단설대학원의 사례들을 조사 분석함으로써 우리나라 과학기술계 출연연구기관에서의 바람직한 운영모델을 제시하고자한다. 일본의 총합연구대학원대학과 연계대학원제도, 중국 국가연구소들의 학위수여제도, 프랑스 국가연구소들의 석·박사과정, 독일 연구기관들의 박사과정 등을 소개하며, 이 들의 특징과 장단점들을 비교한다. 이어서 우리나라에서 현재 진행되고 있는 현황을 분석하고, 과학기술계 출연연구기관의 단설대학원 설립의 방향과 활성화를 위한 개선방안 등을 제시한다. 보고하였다2) 이 경우 보호피막으로서 NiO 와 $LiCrO_2$가 작용하는데, $LiCrO_2$가 용융탄산염 중에서 보다 안정한 것으로 부터, Cr의 첨가가 내식성에 기여하는 것으로 판단하였다. 다음 단계 로서 Fe/Cr재료에 용-융탄산염 중에서 안정한 산화물을 형성하는 Al의 첨가효과를 검토하였다. Al의 첨가는 더욱 내식성을 향상시키는 것이 발견되었고, 약 4wt%의 첨가로 충분한 내식성을 가지 는 것을 보고 하였다. 그러나 이러한 안정한 산화물에 의한 내식성 향상은 전기진도도의 희생을 바탕으로 한 것으로서, 다읍 단계로서 Ti산화물의 반도체적인 특성을 이용하고자 제 4의 원소로서 Ti첨가를 시도하였다. 그러나 Fe/Cr/AVTi재료가 뛰어난 내식성을 가지는 것은 관찰되었으나, 전도도 향상에는 기여하지 못하는 것이 보고되었다. 현재 MCFC는 실용화를 위한 고성능화의 하나로서 가압하에서의 운전을 시도하고 있다. 이 러한 가압하에서의 운전은 기전력의 향상 및 전극반응의 촉진 등으로 출력의 향상을 가져오나. 현재 문제로 되고 있는 Cathode극인 NiO의 용해/석출 현상을 가속화하는 결과를 초래해, 이에대 한 대책으로서 Li-K보다 NiO의 용해가 적은 Li-Na탄산염으로의 전환이 진행되고 있다. 이러한 배경으로부터 Uchida그룹에서 개발한 FeiCr/AVTi재료와 현재 분리판 재료로 사용증인 SUS 310, S SUS 316재료에 대해. 산화성 분위기의 5기압까지의 가압하에서, Li-K, Li-Na탄산염에 대하여 부 식거동을 검토한 결과, 가압하에서 내식성이 향상되는 것이

This study examined the possibility of utilizing next-generation technology, such as Virtual Reality or AI robots, in the long-term care facilities for the elderly. For the study, the Focus Group Interview was conducted in three different groups of 14 participants (care workers, social workers, and directors of long-term care facilities for the elderly). The analysis revealed a total of three topics, eight categories, and 26 sub-categories. The main results of the study showed that the use of next-generation technology could assist the psychological and emotional stability, provide curiosity and interest, and relieve the desire for physical activity for the elderly. In addition, for long-term care services staff, it could provide useful services for the elderly with physical constraints, facilitate effective management of the elderly roaming around, and enhance emotional support services. Finally, it could also help directors of long-term care facilities promote their services, educate staff, and keep up with current trends. Participants expressed concerns about the introduction of new technologies, but they generally expected that the application of next-generation technology would be positive for the elderly as well as for care workers and directors of long-term care facilities. Therefore, the use of next-generation technology in long-term care facilities for the elderly will also help develop gerontechnology.

The major objective of this research is to suggest the proactive strategy and management of public R&D for the active transfer of technology based on the influential factor analysis of technology transfer. This study identified influential factors which make the greatest impact on the success of public technology transfer and commercialization through three points of view-technology supplier's view, technology adopter's view and view of commercialization-which contribute to successful technology transfer and commercialization. The core influential variables for blocking technology transfer are identified such as additional technological development, search for technology adopter followed by mass production technology and testing of confidence. Technology adopter is to create new markets or expand existing markets through the superiority (innovation) of licensing technology, increasing the internal innovation capabilities and maximizing the impacts of technology. This research suggests two effective strategies for improving technology transfer such as technology planning and marketing in the view of technology license. The strategy of technology planning should be established and executed to meet both technology trends and adopter's needs. And strong patents should be secured in terms of licensing of technology. Also the technological performance should be evaluated at mid-term appraisal, confirming the needs of adopter and competitive advantage of technology and patent. In addition to this, the customized technology marketing strategy for different fields of applications is also required in order to improve the likelihood of technology transfer. If the performance of R&D organization could be evaluated by global technological competitiveness and spillover effects of commercialization rather than quantitative output, the flow of technology transfer and commercialization would be accelerated.

The study used jet water flow, ultra-sonication and ozonation system units to investigate impact of the unit components on water quality of stagnant Yeo-cheon River reach, Korea. Samples were collected at six locations, before operation and after 1, 3 and 6 hrs of operation. By operating the water flow unit only, dissolved oxygen increased as high as 90% after 3 hr at 25 m downstream of the device and Chl-a was reduced by 80%. Incorporating sonication, greater than 80% of Chl-a was removed even at 100 m distance from the device. Besides, total dissolved phosphorus was reduced from an average value of $420({\pm}70){\mu}g/L$ before ultrasonic irradiation to $160({\pm}40){\mu}g/L$ after the treatment. Releasing ozone into the flow with sonication, Chl-a was considerably removed from the water column and ammonia nitrogen was also decreased to average value of $20{\mu}g/L$ from $60{\mu}g/L$. However, as only $3{\ast}10^{-3}mg/L$ of ozone was used for safety purpose and due to brief reaction time it takes, effect of integrating ozone to the system covered limited area. Generally, combining sonication to jet flow is promising in preventing algal bloom formation since it has effectively removed Chl-a from the water column.

City culture resources are critical elements to city brand strategies for improving city attraction and provide much contribution to induce visitors from competitive city. A city brand needs to be distinguished and differentiated from competing cities because they are all engaged in the similar environment of city. The differentiation of brand achievement has become increasingly important to highlight certain brand functions to include emotional, self-expressive, and symbolic functions since the importance of such functions has been further emphasized in promoting tourism activities. In particular, That is the recent role of city brand personality that has been emphasized in city management. In other words, visitors now freely and actively express their personalities or egos in tourism activities, taking an important role in construction of a brand asset. The study examines how culture resources affect city brand personality, relationship quality, and city brand royalty in the tourism city. The authors test the proposed model using data from Jeju tourists. The pivotal findings via the structural equation model in the study are as follows; 1) culture resources have been classified culture programs, culture infra, human resources, 2) The city brand personality has been classified as innovativeness, peacefulness, sophistication, confidence and dynamics; 3) The culture resources influenced on the city brand personality; 4) The city brand personality influenced on the satisfaction and involvement; 5) The satisfaction and involvement influenced on the loyalty. Results from the empirical study indicates that culture resources have a strong positive impaction on city brand personality. To increase tourist' royalty of city brand personality, managements must manage culture effectively and create friendly city brand personality to in accord with tourist needs.

As an origin and a starting point of business start-up, this start-up intention is believed to be the driving force of economic growth. Being aware of the importance of the start-up intention, the study looked into cause-and-effect relationships of variables focusing on intermediate roles of start-up self-efficacy and intrinsic motivation in self-leadership and start-up intention of business founders. In order to achieve the research goal, the study conducted both a survey targeting a total of 195 business founders registered at a business incubation center and an empirical analysis on the results of the survey. According to the findings from the analysis, the study first learned that the self-leadership would have a positive effect on the start-up self-efficacy and the intrinsic motivation which eventually proved that the self-leadership is a leading variable of the start-up self-efficacy and the intrinsic motivation. Second, both the start-up self-efficacy and the intrinsic motivation were observed to be positively related to the start-up intention. That finding signified that roles of the start-up self-efficacy and the intrinsic motivation are important to increase the start-up intention. Third, intermediate effects of the start-up self-efficacy and the start-up intention were discovered from the self-leadership and the start-up intention, the main topics of the research. Hence, in order to improve the start-up intention, the importance of the start-up self-efficacy and the intrinsic motivation should be recognized and promoted as well and for this goal to be achieved, the business founders should understand the idea that the self-leadership has to come first than anything else in this case. Based on the results of the research, the study offers theoretical and practical implications.

In this paper, we develop a speech recognition system using a throat microphone. The use of this kind of microphone minimizes the impact of environmental noise. However, because of the absence of high frequencies and the partially loss of formant frequencies, previous systems developed with those devices have shown a lower recognition rate than systems which use standard microphone signals. This problem has led to researchers using throat microphone signals as supplementary data sources supporting standard microphone signals. In this paper, we present a high performance ASR system which we developed using only a throat microphone by taking advantage of Korean Phonological Feature Theory and a detailed throat signal analysis. Analyzing the spectrum and the result of FFT of the throat microphone signal, we find that the conventional MFCC feature vector that uses a critical pass filter does not characterize the throat microphone signals well. We also describe the conditions of the feature extraction algorithm which make it best suited for throat microphone signal analysis. The conditions involve (1) a sensitive band-pass filter and (2) use of feature vector which is suitable for voice/non-voice classification. We experimentally show that the ZCPA algorithm designed to meet these conditions improves the recognizer's performance by approximately 16%. And we find that an additional noise-canceling algorithm such as RAST A results in 2% more performance improvement.
