The presentation of this paper was triggered by the spread of MERS in Korea in the year 2015. The analysis of the present acts related with MERS is necessary in order to cope efficiently with any probable spread of such infectious diseases as MERS in future. The acts that should be analyzed in this paper include 'Medical Service Act' and 'Infectious Disease Control And Prevention Act' (hereafter, IDCAPA). At first the classification of the infectious diseases in IDCAPA should be referred to. The Act does not properly classify them because the scope of concept of each group of the infectious diseases overlaps each other. This overlap should be removed. The present system in IDCAPA is not proper for the efficient notification and reporting of the infectious disease patients. This is so in some viewpoints including the persons obligated to make the notification and reporting, the persons to whom they should notify and report such patients, and the process of notification and reporting. The efficient approach to the information related with the infectious disease is necessary for the rapid prevention of its spread. Cohort isolation and quarantine of the infectious patients and exposed contacts are the strongest and most efficient steps for the prevention of spread of the infectious diseases. One of the great problems related with such steps would be the conflict of powers or attributions, the likelihood of which is inevitable under the present system of IDCAPA. The IDCAPA distributed the power or attribution to take the steps to the three governments including the central government, the metropolitan government and the primary local government. The power should be concentrated in the central government, which could afford financially to compensate for the huge amount of damages caused likely by the steps. The power to take the steps would be actually just a useless thing for its holder without such financial capacity. The remedy for the victims by the fault of spreader should be approached to in the sense of national wealth. The general principle of tort law could not supply the victims with the sufficient remedy because the damages would be likely too huge for the wealth of such spreader to cope with. In future another parliamentary inspection could reveal another problems in the administration by the government of the MERS event in the year 2015. Any problem caused by defect in the legal system of the control and prevention of the infectious diseases should be taken into consideration when the legal system would be reformed in future.

A pulse radar system has been developed recently to detect dormant underground tunnels that are deeply located at depths of hundreds of metres. To check the ability of the radar system to detect an obliquely oriented tunnel, five different borehole pairs in the tunnel test site were chosen so that the horizontal lines-of-sight cut the tunnel axis obliquely, in $15^{\circ}$ steps. The pulse radar signatures were measured over a depth range of 20 m around the centre of the air-filled tunnel. Three canonical parameters, consisting of the arrival time, attenuation, and dispersion time were extracted from the first and second peaks of the measured radar signatures. Using those parameters, the radar system can detect obliquely oriented tunnels at various angles up to 45 from the transmitter-receiver line of sight.

Sedimentation changes related with bottom shear stress attenuation at JangHang channel in the Keum River Estuary, where several huge coastal constructions including an estuarine dam have been conducted for last 2 decades, were evaluated for 7 cases to figure out passage hindrance through the channel by a hydrodynamic model using hind-casting technique from 1988 to 2000 at every 2 years interval. Due to the construction of Keum River Estuary Dam, the maximum bottom shear stress rapidly lessened to $0.2-0.6N/m^2$ compared to$1-2N/m^2$ in natural status. Especially it marks below the critical shear stress of $0.4N/m^2$ resulting in severe siltation in the channel just after the closing of dam gates in 1994. It is concluded that the dam may block the tidal energy propagation to upstream and directly results in sedimentation environment in front of dam site. It is also revealed that at least 20% of passage hindrance of small fishing boats through the channel could be counted due to sedimentation by analysis of predicted mean spring tides.

Utilization of CCTV in crime prevention for public safety is accepted as the most effective measure in terms of crime prevention and control. Also, it is frequently used as a device that shows evidence of an unexpected situation or record on public social relationship. However, it is rare to find a study that qualitatively accessed the monitoring performance of a certain space depending on the choice and positioning of CCTVs. Thus, this study suggested a technology that can quantitatively compare and assess the monitoring performance of CCTVs depending on view angle and effective sight range of cameras as well as the monitoring performance depending on positioning measures. For the analysis, the concept of 3-dimensional surveillance field in the form of a frustum was suggested while deriving 3-dimensional range of sight and quantitative monitoring performance by applying Isovist theory. For the analysis technology, space of analysis subject, point of view (camera), and target point (measurement node) were installed at a 3-dimensional space and in use of ray-tracing algorithm, the line segment that was visually connected between the point of view and target point was extracted and accumulated. For such verification, analysis application was constructed and then applied to four alternative models on view angle and distance as well as four alternatives on positioning in order to verify its efficacy. Through the experiment, it was possible to compare and assess visibility depending on alternatives while quantifying the results by understanding the shadow areas beyond the monitoring range.

A horizontally curvilinear non-hydrostatic free surface model that was applicable to three-dimensional viscous flows was developed. The proposed model employed a top-layer equation to close kinematic free-surface boundary condition, and an isotropic k-${\varepsilon}$ model to close turbulence viscosity in the Reynolds averaged Navier-Stokes equation. The model solved the governing equations with a fractional step method, which solved intermediate velocities in the advection-diffusion step, and corrects these provisional velocities by accounting for source terms including pressure gradient and gravity acceleration. Numerical applications were implemented to the wind-driven currents in a two-dimensional closed basin, the flow in a steep-sided trench, and the flow in a strongly-curved channel accounting for secondary current by the centrifugal force. Through the numerical simulations, the model showed its capability that were in good agreement with experimental data with respect to free surface elevation, velocity, and turbulence characteristics.

제지공장은 에너지 다소비 업종이며 고도의 장치산업이기 때문에 초지 설비의 효과적 운영을 통한 생산성 극대화가 경제성과 직결되어 었다. 또한 24시간 연속생산을 하는 초지 설비로 소비자가 선호하는 품질의 종이를 생산하기 위해서는 공정의 안정성 이 매우 중요하다. 이는 공정의 불안정화는 생산제품의 품질 변화를 유발함으로써 균일 성을 저하시키는 악영향을 미치기 때문이다. 제지 공정의 안정화를 저해하는 인자에는 지절, 지종 변화, 조업중단, 조업재개 둥과 공정의 특성상 수반되는 돌발사태 등이 있을 수 있다. 이들 인자 가운데 가장 심각하게 공정의 안정성을 악화시키는 것은 지절의 발 생이라 할 수 있다. 지절이 발생되면 생산성 저하 등의 여러 문제점이 발생하기도 하지 만 다량의 파지가 발생되기 때문에 공정 안정성 면에서 볼 때에도 부득이하게 생성된 다량의 파지를 공정에 재투입하기 위해 재해리해야하므로 많은 양의 백수가 소모되며 이에 따라 예기치 않은 공정 백수의 사용으로 전체 백수계에 갑작스런 변동이 생기게 된다. 백수가 파지의 해리에 사용됨에 따라 공정 내에는 추가적인 청수가 공급되어야 하므로 전체적으로는 청수의 사용량도 늘어난다. 또한 증가된 파지의 재사용도 대부분 의 공장에서 broke chest의 용량이 한정되어 있으므로 이의 적절한 컨트롤은 중요하다. 더욱이 점차 공정이 고폐쇄화됨에 따라 공정 컨트롤에 대한 여유가 적으므로 백수와 공정의 관리는 점차 어려워지고 있다. 공정 시율레이션은 현존하는 공정을 수학적으로 모델화하여 이를 컴퓨터 하드 왜어를 이용해 실제 공장에서 일어나는 상황을 모사하는 것이다. 이러한 공정 모사는 새로운 공장을 설계하기 전에 타당성 조사와 여러 가지 사례조사를 실시할 때, 기존 공 장의 개조나 증설 또는 기존 공장의 운전조건을 실제로 변경하기 전에도 미리 모사를 함으로써 실제 시험 운전을 하는 경우 보다 많은 비용과 시간을 절약할 수 있다. 본 연 구는 백상지 생산 공정 설계도면을 참고하여 상용 시율레이터로 시율레이션 모델을 구 축하고 이를 기반으로 지절 상황을 모사하였으며, 지절 후의 공정 불안정화 상황을 파 악하였다. 또한 이러한 상황의 대책을 강구하기 위해 다양한 공정 조절 방안을 시율레이션 모댈에 적용하여 그 결과를 해석하였다.

Dens invaginatus is a developmental anomaly resulting from an infolding of the enamel organ into the dental papilla prior to calcification of the dental tissue. Clinical and radiographic presentation of dens invaginatus shows a lot of variation. The classification proposed by Oehlers(1957) is most commonly used among classifications of dens invaginatus. Several treatments have been suggested to treat Type III dens invaginatus where the pulp remains healthy but the invagination is associated with a periodontitis. The top priority objective is to preserve pulp as sound as possible. Thus, if there is no definite evidence of pulpal disease, the conservative access which treat invagination as distinct from the pulp is necessary. But, Endodontic treatment of Type III dens invaginatus has the particular problems associated with achieving adequate chemomechanical debridement of the root canal system and invagination, predictable length control and consistent filling. In this case report, the endodontic treatment limited within invagination was performed for treatment of Type III dens invaginatus, and filling with Mineral Trioxide Aggregate(MTA) resulted in good prognosis.

Hybrid procedure was performed for a thirteen-day-old girl with a functionally single ventricle, who weighed 2.2 kg and had been prematurely born at $32^{+5}$ weeks of gestation. She underwent bilateral pulmonary artery banding using 3.5 mm Gore-Tex graft, ductal stenting using balloon expandable stent, and reverse Blalock-Taussig shunt with 3.5 mm Gore-Tex vascular graft. After discharge, she was followed up for 4 months, and underwent 2nd stage operation(extensive arch reconstruction with Damus-Kaye-Stansel anastomosis, atrial septectomy, bilateral pulmonary artery angioplasty, bidirectional cavopulmonary shunt). She has been followed up for 4 months after the 2nd operation with an excellent clinical condition.

This study aims to suggest methods for improving innovation capability in Daegu-Gyeongbuk's mobile industry. Before offering suggestions, it analyzes the characteristics of technological innovation based on the mobile industry's value chain in Daegu-Gyeongbuk in relation to R&D workforce, R&D expenditures, and R&D networks. Support for R&D workforce in the Daegu-Gyeongbuk's mobile industry is concentrated in the mobile device and contents sectors. In addition, it is difficult for companies to finance R&D expenditures because most are SMEs, except for some large enterprises in the mobile device sector. R&D networks are structured mainly inside of companies, and linkages among universities, research institutes, and supporting institutes are weak in all sectors. To strengthen the innovation capability in Daegu-Gyeongbuk's mobile industry, therefore, human resource projects should be dispersed, and financial support should also be spread across value chain sectors rather than concentrated. Aside from this, a place for industry, academia, institutes, and government to build and enhance innovative networks should be created in all sectors.

A GoldSim template program for a safety assessment of a hybrid-typed repository system, called "A-KRS," in which two kinds of pyro-processed radioactive wastes, low-level metal wastes and ceramic high-level wastes that arise from the pyro-processing of PWR nuclear spent fuels are disposed of, has been developed. This program is ready both for a deterministic and probabilistic total system performance assessment which is able to evaluate nuclide release from the repository and farther transport into the geosphere and biosphere under various normal, disruptive natural and manmade events, and scenarios. The A-KRS has been deterministically assessed with 5 various normal and abnormal scenarios associated with nuclide release and transport in and around the repository. Dose exposure rates to the farming exposure group have been evaluated in accordance with all the scenarios and then compared among other.
