Objectives: We aimed to evaluate the effects of mattress type on both objective and subjective sleep quality in healthy good sleepers. Methods: Fifteen healthy good sleepers with a mean age of 30.8 years participated in this study. A randomized crossover trial was carried out using two different mattress types: a standard mattress and a contour coil mattress. After a night of adaptation, all participants were randomized to either a standard mattress or a contour coil mattress. Then, nocturnal polysomnography was conducted for two consecutive nights. Subjective evaluations were obtained using a self-report questionnaire before and after the polysomnographic recording sessions. Results: The polysomnographic showed no differences in total sleep time, sleep stage, or wake time after sleep onset between the two mattress conditions. Of the polysomnographic variables, only sleep onset latency was significantly reduced for the contour coil mattress. Additionally, participants reported better subjective sleep quality when sleeping on the contour coil mattress, according to the questionnaires. Conclusion: The type of mattress might affect not only subjective, but also objective sleep quality, including sleep onset latency.

During 1968-1970, rearing method being held yearly through was conducted to find adequate rearing season under joint projects in various areas; Chung-nam area, Kyung-buk area, Chun-nam area. The results are summarized as follows: 1. In view of rearing results, earlier transfer represents better, in spring season while early transfer worst in autumn season. If the conventional transfer sets on critical point in autumn season, the value recorded gradually decreased in earlier and later transfer and rapidly in earlier and later. 2. With rearing season, obtained results are degraded in order of spring(1st-4th), autumn(7th-10th), late autumn(11th), summer(5th) , early autumn(6th). Late autumn transfer could be delayed for about 6-7 days in southern area. 3. With referrence to rearing results alone, it may be concluded that 4 time ordinary rearing is adoptable in multi-rearing method, dividing into 2 seasons which are 2 time spring rearing(1st-3rd) and 2 time autumn rearings(8th-10th).1st period of spring rearing should be done 3-4 days ahead of the conventional transfer dates being practiced in each local, and 2nd period of spring transfer 5-6 days delayed. In autumn transfer, 2-5 days ahead and 3-6 days delayed batches tested are preferable. In branch rearing, it is recommended that 4 time branch rearing is conducted to divide into 2 seasons which are 2 time spring rearing(1st-3rd) and 2 time autumn rearing (9th-11th) and that the former is carried out in the same level of the 2 time spring rearing, latter in the same level of the conventional autumn .earing (9th) , and late autumn rearing (11th).

Silkworm transgenesis scientists have done some genetic modification work on multivoltine silkworms, but that type of silkworms is less commercial feasible. They are easy to manipulate, because they breed all year round. But the commercial silkworm variety must undergo hydrochloric acid treatment at a high temperature to be artificially hatched. Hydrochloric acid penetrates through the holes in the silkworm eggs, fatally damaging their reproduction. So it had been thought that altering the properties of the commercial silkworm variety would be very difficult. So we have tried to make from diapause to non-diapause eggs using diapauses varieties, 'Backokjam' and 'Jam 124'. At present, our group has establishing the conditions for non-diapause eggs. Oviposited eggs after 40 ~ 60 hours were incubated for 24 hours at $15{\sim}20^{\circ}C$ with dark condition. Non-diapause eggs were completely induced. The hatching rate, molting rate and pupation rate of non-diapause 'Jam 124' and 'Backokjam' eggs showed no differences compared to diapause eggs. When transgenic silkworm using the non-diapause eggs, the hatching rate showed that non-diapause eggs induced from diapause were 40 ~ 70%, diapause eggs treated with artificial incubation were 10 ~ 30%, and polyvoltine strains, HM eggs were 30 ~ 50%. Therefore, we suggest that modification techniques of the commercial silkworm eggs adequate for silkworm transgenesis can be used to develop transgenic silkworms more easily.

The authors adopt the Unmanned Undersea Vehicle(UUV), the shape of which is like a manta. They call here it Manta UUV. Manta UUV has been designed from the similar concept of the UUV called Manta Test Vehicle(MTV), which was originally built by the Naval Undersea Warfare Center of USA(Lisiewicz and French, 2000; Simalis et al., 2001; U.S. Navy, 2004). The present study deals with the effect of Reynolds numbers on hydrodynamic forces acting on Manta UUV at large angles of attack. The large angles of attack cover the whole range of 0 to ${\pm}$ 180 degrees in horizontal plane and in vertical plane respectively. Static test at large attack angles has been carried out with two Manta UUV models in circulating water channel. The authors assume that the experimental results of hydrodynamic forces (lateral force, yaw moment, vertical force and pitch moment) are analyzed into two components, which are lift force component and cross-flow drag component. First of all, Based on two dimensional cross-flow drag coefficient at 90 degrees of attack angle, the cross-flow drag component at whole range of attack angles is calculated. Then the remainder is assumed to be the lift force component. The only cross-flow drag component is assumed to be subject to Reynolds number.entstly the authors suggest the methodology to predict hydrodynamic derivertives acting on the full-scale Manta UUV.

This paper proposes the performance evaluation test of attitude heading reference system (AHRS) suitable for small high speed autonomous underwater vehicle(AUV). Although IMU can provides the detail attitude information, it is sometime not suitable for small AUV with short operation time in view of price and the electrical power consumption. One of alternative for tactical grade IMU is the AHRS based micro-machined electro mechanical system(MEMS) which can overcome many problems that have inhibited the adoption of inertial system for small AUV such as cost and power consumption. A cost effective and small size AHRS which incorporates measurements from 3-axis MEMS gyroscopes, accelerometers, and 3-axis magnetometers has been developed to provide a complete attitude solution for AUV and the attitude calculation algorithm is derived based the coordinate transform equation and Kalman filter. The developed AHRS was validated through various performance tests as like the magnetometer calibration, operating experiments using land mobile vehicle and flight motion simulator (FMS). The test of magnetometer calibration shows the developed MEMS AHRS is robust to the external magent field change and the test with land vehicle proves the leveling error of developed MEMS AHRS is below $0.5^{\circ}/hr$. The results of FMS test shows the fact that AHRS provides the measurement with $0.5^{\circ}/hr$ error during 5 minutes operation time. These results of performance evaluation tests showed that the developed AHRS provides attitude information which error of roll and pitch are below $1^{\circ}$ and the error of yaw is below $5^{\circ}$ and satisfies the required specification. It is expected that developed AHRS can provide the precise attitude measurement under sea trial with real AUV.

This study was designed to examine the relationships among the levels of perceived stress, dietary behaviors, physical exercise, drinking, smoking, and relief from fatigue through sleep which affect the subjective happiness in adolescents. Based on the study findings, this paper proposes the basic data required for offering practical solutions to improve the subjective happiness of adolescents. IBM SPSS 20 and AMOS 23 were used to conduct frequency and descriptive analyses, in conjunction with Pearson's correlation coefficients, the AMOS bootstrapping method and phantom variables, for the raw data obtained from the 9,599 participants included in the 11th Korea Youth Risk Behavior Web-based Survey. Those factors having a direct effect on the subjective happiness of the adolescents were the level of perceived stress, relief from fatigue through sleep, physical exercise, dietary behavior and smoking. Perceived stress had an indirect effect on subjective happiness, and the analysis of the indirect effect and significance level of multiple mediators by means of phantom variables showed that, as well as perceived stress, relief from fatigue through sleep, physical exercise, dietary behaviors, and smoking also had indirect effects on subjective happiness. Consequently, a multidisciplinary approach is needed to optimize the subjective happiness in adolescents and financial support for environmental improvements is particularly necessary.

This study was worked out to investigate the compounds of antioxidant constituents extracted from Stachys Sieboldii MiQ. and their effects on antioxidant activity by DPPH method, ferric thiocyanate method, and nitrite scavenging ability. Solvents such as methanol, hexane, chloroform, ethyl acetate, butanol, and water were used for this purpose. Total concentrations of polyphenols and flavonoids were measured in the methanol fraction. The ethyl acetate fraction showed the strongest activity by DPPH method, ferric thiocyanate method, and nitrite scavenging ability. The ethyl acetate extract was fractionated on a silica gel column using elution solvent (chloroform: methanol: water ＝ 70 : 30 : 5 lower phase) at a flow rate of 1.0 mL/min. UV-VIS spectral data of each fraction showed adsorption maxima in the range of 284～330 nm. Among fractions, the fraction 1 that has λ$\_$max/ (nm) of 284 nm showed the strongest activity by DPPH method. The UV-VIS spectral data of phenolic compounds were known to lie in the range of 210～290 nm and 300～550 nm. Therefore, the results of our study suggested that Stachys sieboldii MIQ. contains phenolic compounds showing natural antioxidant activity.

무인 잠수정은 자율 무인잠수정(이하 'AUV' 또는 '자율무인잠수정'을 혼용)과 원격조정잠수정(이하 'ROV'로 지칭)으로 분류를 할 수 있다. ROV는 테더 게이블로 인한 작업 범위의 한계와 운동성능 효율이 떨어지는 단점을 지니고 있어, 테더 케이블이 필요 없는 AUV에 대한 필요성이 증대되고 있다. 추측 항법 시스템인 관성 항법 시스템(inertial navigation system, 이하 'INS'로 지칭)은 외부 도움없이 관성측정 장치(inertial measurement unit, 이하 'IMU'로 지칭)를 활용하여 구성된 시스템을 말한다. IMU는 자이로 스코프(gyroscope), 가속도계(accelerometer), 지자기(magnetic)센서로 구성된 측정 장치로 3개의 센서를 사용하여 상호 보정을 통한 기동 체의 위치, 속도 및 자세 정보를 제공한다. 복합항법시스템은 추측항법시스템이 가지는 누적오차와 측위 항법시스템이 가지는 외부환경에 대한 단점을 상호 보완하는 방법으로 연구가 진행 중이다. 하지만 심해서 또는 해양의 특성에 따라 측위 시스템이 사용되지 못하기 때문에 추측 항법시스템의 다양한 관성 센서를 활용한 상로 보완과 신호처리 방법을 통한 연구 개발이 진행 중이다. 다양한 센서 정보를 통합하는 목적으로 칼만 필터와 같은 최적 필터기법이 보편적으로 사용되고 있다. 칼만 필터는 확률 선형 시스템에 대하여 공정잡음 및 측정 잡음이 가우시안 확률 분포를 따를 때 최적의 추정자가 된다. 또한 가우시안 조건을 만족하지 않는 경우에도 선형 추정자 중에 추정 오차의 분산이 가장 작은 추정자이다. 칼만 필터가 최상의 성능을 발휘 하려면 공정잡음과 측정 잡음의 실제 값을 정확히 알아내는 것이 중요하다. 잡음 수준에 대한 정보가 부정확 할 경우 칼만 필터는 발산 할 수 있기 때문에 시스템에서 잡음 수준의 공산은 칼만 필터의 최적 이득을 결정하는 중요한 요소로 추정치에 큰 영향을 준다. 따라서 칼만 필터를 추측항법시스템에 적용 시킬 경우 실제 모텔의 잡음 공분산을 정확히 추정할 수 있는 기법이 요구된다. 추측항법시스템은 다양한 센서를 활용하기 때문에 움직이는 기동 표적에 적용시 잡음공분상이 변하기 때문에 항법시스템이 저하 될 수 있다. 본 연구에서는 다양한 센서를 융합하여 해양 생체 로봇의 정밀 자세 제어가 가능한 시스템을 제안하고자 한다.

In the hemolymph proteins of the silkworm reared with mulberry leaves and artificial diet, electrophoretic patterns of Storege Protein 1 (SP1) and Vitellogenin(VG), changes of relative concentration of SP1, JHA effects during the developmental stages, and estimation of the molecular weight of vitellin subunits were investigated in the present study. 1. Storage Protein 1 (SP1) showed female specificity from the middle stage of the fifth instar to the end of spinning stage in the silkworm reared with mulberry leaves and artificial diet. 2. Vitellogenin (VG) showed female specififcity just afrter pupation in the silkworm reared with mulberry leaves and artificial diet. 3. Storage Protein 2 (SP2) without female specificity was detected from the early stage of the fifth instar to the first or second day after pupation. 4. Vitellin was composed of two non-identical subunits (vitellin-heavy chain ; VTL-H, vitellinlight chain ; VTL-L) with mplecular weight of 186,000 and 41,000. Also, there were no differenes between the molecular weights of vitellin subunits obtained from silkworms reared with mulberry leaves and artificial diet. 5. Relative concentration of Storage Protein 1 (SP1) after topical application - 0.5, and 10$\mu\textrm{g}$ per body weight - JHA on the 60th hour of the fifth instar showed the highest increase with the treatment of 5$\mu\textrm{g}$ and a higher increase with the treatment of 10$\mu\textrm{g}$ compared with the control (no topical application of JHA).

HEMIRE is a 6,000-meter-class remotely operated vehicle (ROV) that has been developed for observation and sampling of objects of interest on the deep seabed. We first carried out deep-seabed exploration around the slopes of the Hupo Bank and the Ulleung Basin in the East Sea in June 2015. Over two weeks, a total of 10 dives were made from a support ship, the R/V Onnuri, at eight stations with water depth ranging between 194 and 2,080 m. The dive times ranged from 1 to 6 hours, depending on the operating conditions. We obtained the following results: 1) video images of the deep seafloor; 2) red snow crab density data (a major fishery resource) and inventories of deep-sea fauna, including an unrecorded organism; 3) specific topographies such as canyons slopes; 4) an undisturbed sediment core obtained using a push corer; and 5) observations of the seabed surface covered with discarded anthropogenic waste material.
