Halon which is one of the typical fire extinguishing agents for special purposes was banned not only to use but to manufacture because it destroys the earth's ozone layer. There have been many efforts to find or create Halon alternatives and Novec1230 which is one of the eco-friendly fire extinguishing agents is nominated. In this paper 6 kinds of valve structures were suggested to apply Novec1230 to fire extinguishing agents for railroad vehicles as Novec1230 needs different valve specifications from Halon and spray shapes and action time were compared and measured. As the results, the extinguishing times of A type and F type valves are 20% faster than the other 4 types, and 178% faster than MIL-DTL-62547(USA). Therefore, they can be suggested to the eco-friendly extinguishing agents and Novec1230.

Shotcrete lining is an important material for the stability of tunnels in NATM tunnels. However, stressmeters for stress measurements of shotcrete lining are installed in the field without performance verification because of a lack of research on methods, procedures, regulations, and reliability of measurement equipment. To solve this problem, all shotcrete stressmeters currently used in Korea were investigated. For each stressmeter, external inspection and structural and functional inspection were performed to identify defects and problems in devices. For this purpose, a shotcrete stressmeter performance test device capable of load loading in stages was developed and obtained KOLAS certification. Using the device, stressmeter performance tests were conducted. Structural problems of integrated- and cell-type shotcrete stressmeters were identified through concrete mold tests, and improvement plans and performance verification procedures were suggested. The results of this study are expected to contribute to the preparation of regulations for the performance verification of shotcrete stressmeters and the selection of measuring instruments in the field in the future.

Chronic diseases have been increasing recently as the average life expectancy of humans has been extended, and this trend has caused problems such as the widespread demand for health and rehabilitation services and rising medical costs. In order to solve this problem, the community-based rehabilitation has been developed and strengthened in Korea and gradually promoted since 2019. It is important to secure access to clients who want to use services to revitalize community-based rehabilitation. So in this study, as part of the community-based rehabilitation, intends to devise smartphone applications designs and develop a prototype to secure access to community-based occupational therapy services based on occupation and activities. For Occupational Therapy Practice Framework (OTPF), International Classification of Functioning, Disability and Health (ICF), and Allen Diagnostic Module-2 (ADM-2) were used to devise and categorize occupation and activity based application content, and link OTPF, ICF, and ADM-2 through prior research analysis and expert meetings. The derived content was visualized through literature review and activity analysis, and was implemented to enable direct playback within the application using the YouTube API, and finally developed a prototype application. The Android Studio 3.5.2 for Windows 64-bit was used to build the application prototype. In further research, converging various digital technologies for user convenience and additionally researching community-based occupational therapy service providers opinions and service user satisfaction will improve accessibility to community-based occupational therapy services for clients who have difficulty occupational performance in the community.

Customized cosmetics are continuously mentioned as a trend in the cosmetics industry to respond to the recent rapid changes in the social environment and pursue individuality and diversity. Accordingly, four types of liposome essence corresponding to skin types were prepared by varying the ratio of liposome formulation and essence formulation as a customized cosmetic base that can be easily mixed and applied at the workplace. The volatilization residues of four types of liposome essence were measured and the nanoparticle size, polydispersity index, zeta potential and viscosity according to time for 90 d were measured, and Turbiscan was measured as a method for evaluating the stability of a colloidal dispersion system. In addition, a simple usability evaluation was performed for four types of liposome essence corresponding to the skin type. As a result, the amount of volatile residue in the four types of liposome essence was increased in dry products rather than oily ones, and the particle size showed a tendency to increase with time in the range of 165 to 175 nm, increasing up to 31.5%, and the polydispersity index was 0.23 to 0.26. There was little change with time, and the zeta potential was -74 to -72 mV, showing a slight decrease with time, but there was little change to the extent of a maximum decrease of 14.0%. Viscosity showed a decreasing trend with time in the range of 2,580 ~ 3,290 cps, showing a maximum decrease of 17.5%. In the turbiscan measurement, all of the turbiscan stability index, a measure of stability, were less than 1.0, indicating dispersion stability. In the overall simple usability satisfaction evaluation for skin types (6 points), products for oily skin (5.33 ± 0.75 points) > products for medium dry skin (5.13 ± 0.95 points) > products for dry skin (5.03 ± 0.96 points) > products for oily skin (4.80 ± 1.04 points) points) were evaluated in order. The four types of liposome essence corresponding to skin types with different ratios of liposome formulation and essence formulation were physically stable, and the possibility of application as a customized cosmetic base according to skin type was confirmed.

In this paper, we present a transcoding algorithm for converting an MPEG-2 video bitstream to an H.264 bitstream. The proposed transcoder consists of two parts. One is MPEG2 decoding part and the other is H.264 encoding part Because our algorithm is for transcoding in the spatial domain, MPEG2 decoding part carries out full decoding of MPEG2 bitstream. While, because macroblock type and coded block pattern in MPEG2 are significantly related to macroblock mode in H.264, macroblock mode is selected adaptively according to macroblock type and coded block pattern in H.264 decoding part. Furthermore, motion vector is also used as side-information for 16$\ctimes$16 macroblock mode. Simulation results show that the proposed transcoder yields high reduction of total transcoding time at comparable PSNR.

Commercial formulation of fungicides was studied in vitro for sensitivity against Typhula species causal agents of Typhula blight. Efficacies of fungicides application, spray volume, nozzle types and fungicides applied time (early fall and late fall) were evaluated for their influence on the chemical control of Typhula blight of turfgrass during the winter season in Wisconsin. All fungicides effectively reduced the mycelial growth of eight isolates of Typhula spp. in vitro on potato dextrose agar (PDA) media. For inhibitory effects on mycelial growth of eight isolates, propiconazole was the most effective at $1.0{\mu}g$ active ingredient (a.i) / ml of PDA. Typhula incarnata two isolates were significantly more sensitive to all fungicides of PDA than six isolates of three varieties of T. ishikariensis. For 2 years in field experiment, unsprayed control has significantly more disease severity than seven fungicides were applied to field plots at two locations. Propiconazole was the most effective for controlling Typhula blight, at two locations in both years. The level of disease control was not dependent on fungicides spray volume or nozzle types at two locations. The disease damage treated with triadimefon applied time (early fall and late fall) was not significantly different at two location for two years.

As 5G mobile communication services gradually expand in P2P (peer-to-peer) or D2D (device-to-device) applications, traffic-oriented stream control such as YouTube streaming is emerging as an important technology. In D2D communication, the type of data stream most frequently transmitted by users is a video stream, which has the characteristics of a large-capacity transport stream. In a D2D communication environment, this type of stream not only provides a cause of traffic congestion, but also degrades the quality of service between D2D User Equipments (DUEs). In this paper, we propose a Traffic-Oriented Stream Scheduling (TOSS) scheme to minimize the interruption of dynamic media streams such as video streams and to optimize streaming service quality. The proposed scheme schedules the media stream by analyzing the characteristics of the media stream and the traffic type in the bandwidth of 3.5 GHz and 28 GHz under the 5G gNB environment. We examine the performance of the proposed scheme through simulation, and the simulation results show that the proposed scheme has better performance than other comparative methods.
