A series of consolidated drained and untrained cubical triaxial tests were performed to investigate three dimensional strength characteristics of compressible sand. All specimens, which are formed by deposisting a fine sand loosely, were used. Failure strength in terms of effective stress analysis was greatly influenced by the variation of intermediate principal stress and so was failure criterion The adjusted effective frictional angles obtained by the stress state projected on the same octahedral plane showed almost same value, while the measured effective frictional angles showed considerable difference depending on the drainage conditions. Results of total stress analysis in undrained test turned out to fit Tresca's failure criterion well, but results of effective stress analysis turned out to fit Lade's failure criterion well.

This research aims to explore the associated linguistic features and functions of Chinese as used for business trading purposes, and which is based on a discourse analysis through a case in which a Korean buyer and a Chinese supplier have exchanged Internet based e-mails. The research questions include first, the linguistic functions and characteristics of Chinese shown as identified in this trade case through e-mails, second, the use of Chinese trade specific terms, and third, the apparent and dynamic negotiation strategies that are identified as followed by the cultural value systems which are used for resolving interest conflicts and issues between the buyer and supplier in the course of negotiating business contracts between two parties. The participants of this research pertain to a Korean buyer, James and a Chinese supplier, Sonya. The associated data consists of 74 e-mails exchanged between the two parties, initiated in an effort to begin and complete a trade item, in this case namely the product of napkin holders. The research for the study is based on the discourse analysis and empirically analyses models of Chinese linguistic functions and features. The findings are the following. First, as identified, the specific Chinese functions used and sequenced in this trade case are of a procedure, request, informing, negotiation and persuasion. Second, the essential trade terms used in this business interaction involve the relevant issues of 1) ordering and price negotiating, 2) marking the origin of the products, 3) the arrangement of the product examination and customs declaration for the anticipated import items, 4) preparation of the necessary legal documents, and 5) the package and transport of the product in the final instance. Third, the impact of the similarities and differences in the cultural value systems between Korea and China on the negotiations and conflict resolution during a negotiated contract between two parties are speculated in terms of the use of culturally based techniques such as face-saving and the utilization of uncertainty-avoiding strategies as meant to prevent misunderstandings from developing between the parties. The concluding part of the study discusses the implications for a practical Chinese language education utilizing the linguistic functions and features of the Chinese culture and language strategies as useful in business associations for trading purposes, and the importance of intercultural communication styles based on similar of different identified cultural values as noted between two parties.

The purpose of this study was to investigate the effect of Chemyon(social-face) on wedding consumption behavior. To perform this study, the questionnaires were administered to 305 women in seoul and the data were analyzed by Frequency, Factor Analysis, and Multiple Regression Analysis. In the result of factors analysis, Chemyon factors were divided into being formal, being conscious of other people, and being ashamed. Consumption behaviors were divided into pursuit of high quality, pursuit of individuality, pursuit of actual profit, and pursuit of fashion. In the result of this study, the more people give an account of formality, the more they behave pursuit of high quality and the less they behave pursuit of individuality and fashion. The more they make much importance of being conscious of other people, the more they pursue consumption of individuality and fashion. Also the more high consumption of fashion, the less they have being conscious of other people. Therefore we can find through this study that Chemyon has an influence on wedding-beauty consumption behavior.

The research was executed to find out that customers' dissatisfaction level caused from service failure could be increased or decreased by personal value attitude for a event. With the empirical study the research found fate or destiny oriented individuals are more likely to forgive for the service failures than face value oriented ones. The findings will be helpful to increase customers satisfaction levels after customers experienced service failures if a service firm can manage individuals' personal values.

In the reflection and transmission of a transverse magnetic wave(TM wave) from a dielectric plane osillating sinusoidally perpendicular to ist surface, one could assume that the boundary moves with a uniform nelocity equal to the instantaneous socillating velodity. According to the extended Lorentz transform, the reflected and the transmitted field are obatained as the function of the dielectric permittivity, the oscillating velocities, and the incident angles. The above results are analyzed graphically.

In the reflection and transmission of a plane wave(TE) from a dielectric plane surface oscillating sinusoidally perpendicular to its surface, one could assume that the boundary moves with a uniform velocity equal to the instantaneous oscillating velocity. The reflected and the transmitted fields are obtained as the function of the incident angles, the dielecri'c permittivity, and the oscillating velocities according to the extended Lorentz transform.

This study investigated factors influencing consumers' switching behavior in apparel purchasing situation. As customer switching behavior is getting more and more important, a considerable amount of researches have focused on how service providers acquire and sustain customers. The field of customers' switching behavior has been relatively well researched over the years, at least from the perspective of the cultural value(Chemyen). The purpose of this study is to understand customer' switching behavior to relationship benefits and Chemyeon. The sample was consisted on 182 females over 20 years old living in Ulsan and Gyungnam province. The data was analyzed by frequency, reliability, factor analysis, and structural equation model analysis. Findings showed that Chemyeon was shown to reduce customer' switching behavior. Also, three factors of relationship benefits(economic benefit, social·psychological benefit, and special treatment benefit) had negative effects on customer' switching behavior.

In this paper, the characteristics of coordinate transformation between the WGS84 and the Bessel ellipsoids according to the assumed values of the geoidal height on Bessel ellipsoid at the geodetic datum origin of Korea were investigated. For this, based on GPS data of 11 control points in Chungnam and Chungbuk province, the mean shift values between ellipsoids were calculated in each case. The geoidal heights on the Bessel ellipsoid were modelled in the area and the coordinate transformation coefficients were derived, and then the accuracy of the transformed coordinates according to fluctuations in geoidal heights were studied.

Brief hypnotherapy was used to a 22-year-old male soldier who had suffered from a hysterical aphonia for 10 days. Hypnosis was used to induce relaxation at physical and emotional levels and to influence the patient's attitude in a beneficial and therapeutic way. Self-hypnosis was taught in the first session. Notable improvement occurred after e second session and was maintained throughout 10months follow up. The hypnotic suggestion would be most effective if couched in a way which would enable the patient to perceive the dissolution of the symptom as reinforcing rather than losing face.

This study verified the effect of occupational value, as felt by new employees working in the food service industry, on turnover intent and also the moderating effect of perceived organizational support between occupational value and turnover intent. The analysis drew out the following results. First, the study verified that, among inherent values, only social commitment had a positive(+) direction of influence on turnover intent, and second, among extrinsic values, only face-saving and stability seeking had a positive(+) direction of influence on turnover intent. Third, as a result of verifying the effect of inherent values on turnover intent according to emotional support, the study revealed that turnover intent increased, as the perception of emotional support increased, on condition that the item, value of knowledge seeking, among inherent values, was perceived highly, On the other hand, if the item, relationship-centered, scored highly among inherent values, then the higher the perception of emotional support, the lower the turnover intent. Fourth, as a result of verifying the effect of extrinsic values on turnover intent according to emotional support, the study revealed that turnover intent decreased, as the perception of emotional support increased, on condition that the value of economic priority, among extrinsic values, was perceived highly. On the other hand, if the item, face-saving, scored highly among extrinsic values, then the higher the perception of emotional support, the higher the turnover intent. Fifth, as a result of verifying the differing effect of inherent values according to methodical support, the study revealed that turnover intent increased as the perception of methodical support increased, if the item, knowledge-seeking among inherent values was perceived highly. Sixth, as a result of verifying the differing effect of extrinsic values according to methodical support, the study revealed that turnover intent decreased as the perception of methodical support increased, if the item, economic priority among extrinsic values was perceived highly. On the other hand, if the item, face-saving, among extrinsic values, was perceived highly, the higher the perception of methodical support, the higher the turnover intent.
