Purpose: The purpose of this study is to exam the effects of a short-term pulmonary program on lung function, exercise tolerance, and quality of life in chronic lung patients. Method: Randomized controlled pre-post test design was used. The outcome measures were forced expiratory volume in one second (FEV1, % predicted), 6 min walking distance (6MWD), Borg score after 6MWD, and Chronic Respiratory Disease Questionnaire (CRDQ). Experimental group performed the 4-week home-based pulmonary rehabilitation program composed of inspiratory muscle training, upper and lower extremity exercise, relaxation, and telephone visit. Patients in control group were only given education about self-management strategies. Thirty four patients with moderate-to-severe respiratory impairment were recruited, and 28 patients (19 in experiments, 15 in control) completed the study. Result: Significant improvements in lung function, exercise tolerance, and health related quality of life were found only in the experiment group. Conclusion: This study yielded evidence for the potential and beneficial effects of home-based pulmonary rehabilitation program in patients with moderate to severe chronic lung disease. The program could be adequately utilized for improvement of health related quality of life in chronic lung patients.

The vegetation of Seoimal-lighthouse area was investigated from August, 2001 to July, 2002. In order to analyze the vegetation of this area, synthesis table, actual vegetation map were prepared. The main community structures of this area represent evergreen broad-leaf community(about 48%), which are very good condition(nearly last sere) to preserve and 11communities(Camellia japonica community, Castanopsis cuspidnta var. thunbergii community, Neolitsea sericea community, Quercus serrata community, Quercus variabilis community, Carpinus corenna community, Srtrax japonica community, Pinus thunbergii community, Quercus acutissima community, Zelkova serrata community, Cinnamimum japonicum community) were classified by vegetation type. And Daphne kiusiana, Asirum maculatum, Cymbidium goeringii, Chloranthus glaber, Ligularia taguetii should be worthwhile species to conserve in this area.

In traditional vehicles, a great amount of energy is dissipated by braking. In electric vehicles (EVs), however, electric motors can be controlled to operate as generators to convert kinetic and potential energy of vehicles into electrical energy and store it in batteries. In this paper, the relationship between regenerative braking factor and battery final SOC is derived and the final SOC from the relationship is compared to that from simulation. Two types of braking algorithms are introduced and applied to an EV, and the final SOC derived from simulation is compared to that derived from the relationship.

The ppage resistance mechanism of Lactococcus lactis subsp. cremoris ATCC 11602-A1 was investigated. When parent and A1 were incubated at 30 and 40$^{\circ}C$, A1 grew well and multiplication of phage(MOI=1)on A1 slightly occurred at 40$^{\circ}C$ in contrast with parent. There was a great difference of proteolytic activity between parent and A1, irrespective of the temperature. As a result of ADS treatment oon culture broth, survival rate of A1 was 27% at the lethal concentration of parent and adsorption rate of phage was increased to 95~97%, which was considered to come from the exposure of phage receptor site masked by an unknown component. These results suggest that acridine orange (AO) treatment leads to the modification of cell wall, conferring resistance to high temperature and lytic phage. No change in plasmid profiles of A1 at 30 and 40$^{\circ}C$ were found, which suggests that plasmid is not relative to temperature-resistance of A1.

충격에 민감한 용기나 기계들은 운반이나 보관중에 받을 수 있는 진동충격 을 완화시키기 위해 충격 마운트를 이용하게 되며, 충격마운트는 용기나 기 계들이 허용하는 최대가속도와 이들이 취급되는 환경에 의해 적절히 선정되 어야 한다. 그러므로 내충격 설계는 최대 허용 가속도나 취급환경에 대한 사 양과 이 사양에 의한 충격 마운트의 선정, 그리고 선정된 내충격 시스템의 충격시험에 의한 오일 탬퍼의 결합용이 사용되기도 하지만 구조가 복잡하고 가격이 비싸서 대용량이 경우에만 국한되어 사용되고 있으며, 가장 경제적인 것은 방진고무를 사용한 것이다. 내충격 시스템은 일반적으로 큰 변형량을 요구하고 있으며, 방진고무의 경우 큰 변형에서는 hardening 스프링의 비선 형성을 가지고, 형상계수와 고무배합율에 따라 정적 스프링상수와 동적 스프 링상수가 큰 차이를 보이는 등, 설계상의 여러 제한이 있다. 그러나 방진고 무는 형상변화가 자유로우며 제작이 용이하기 때문에 이러한 장점을 이용하 면 저렴하고 다양한 용도의 충격마운트 제작에 효과적으로 사용될 수 있다. 본 논문에서는 원통형 콘테이너의 내충격 설계를 위해 충격사양에 의한 충 격마운트의 설계, 설계된 내충격 시스템의 충격시험에 의한 검증을 순차적으 로 실시하여, 방진고무를 이용한 충격마운트 설계기술을 제시함으로써, 이후 방진고무제품의 설계를 위한 자료 및 과정의 제정에 도움을 주고자 한다.

Column tests using KCl and Benzene as tracers were conducted for four different cases: 1) no hydrogen peroxide and no microorganism; 2) hydrogen peroxide only; 3) microorganism only; 4) hydrogen and microorganism to investigate the sorption and degradation characteristics of Benzene. The observed BTCs of KCl and Benzene in all cases showed that the arrival times of the peaks of both tracers coincided well but the peak concentration of Benzene was much lower than that of KCl. This result reveals that a predominant process affecting the transport of Benzene in a sandy soil is an irreversible sorption and/or degradation rather than retardation. Decay of Benzene through sorption and degradation increased with the addition of hydrogen peroxide and/or microorganism. Dissolved oxygen decreased with the increase of Benzene in all cases indicating that Benzene was degraded by dissolved oxygen. For BTCs with the addition of microorganisms (case 3 and case 4), microorganism showed much lower concentrations compared to the initial levels and an increasing tendency with time although concentrations of Benzene returned to zero, indicating a possible retardation of microorganism due to reversible and irreversible sorption to the particle surfaces.

Fuel economy is an important factor in a vehicle owing to recent energy supply and environmental problems. This paper deals with fuel cell hybrid vehicles (FCHVs) and introduces a fuel economy evaluation method. The fuel economy of an FCHV depends on its power management strategy. Two rule-based power management strategies are applied to this paper and their fuel economy is evaluated based on the optimal control theory. The concept of the optimal line is also applied to this paper, which is used to compare the fuel consumption of a power management strategy to the optimal result. The two rule-based strategies are also compared to each other.

Soil erosion and sediment from agricultural farmland has caused various negative impacts on environment in recent years. The effect of rice straw mat on soil erosion has been investigated by many researchers these days. In this study, the SWAT model was applied to Hongcheon watershed to evaluate SWAT flow and sediment, and the effect of rice straw mat on sediment yield at watershed outlet was evaluated. The Nash-Sutcliffe model efficiency (NSE) and coefficient of determination ($R^2$) values for flow simulation (calibration period) were 0.66 and 0.67, and the NSE values for sediment was 0.90. The calibrated parameters were used to analyze the reduction of sediment yield in the farmland with rice straw mat. Average daily sediment yield without rice straw mat was 49.8 ton/day and sediment yield with rice straw mat was 25.5 ton/day, and the reduction rate was 38.7 %. Also, average daily sediment yield with/without rice straw mat were 97.5 ton/day and 190.7 ton/day during the rainy season (Jun. 2008 - Aug. 2009), with the reduction rate 46.3 %.

The purpose of this study is to provide more efficient teaching method in teaching home Economics in High School. For this study, total 205 girls’high school students in the 2nd grade, among whom 103 students of 2 classes were in Chonju and 102 students of another 2 classes in Kunsan, were selected. Each one classes apiece of two areas were control group. Lessons on laundering were given to students in Chonju and lessons on arrangement of clothing were given to ones in Kunsan. The project Method of education was applied to the experimental group and the cramming system of education was applied to the control group. The difference of two groups were statistically analysed by t-test after the written examination, Practitude, creative ability and interest test. The results of this study are ; 1. The experimental group was higher in practical attitude, creative ability and interest than the control group. 2. Teaching through project method will give changes to the students’attitude toward their household affaires. 3. Teaching-learning method will be improved if lessons applied by project method is given, as the recognisable effect rises through the positive way of thinking and empirical method.
