Low Cycle fatigue data through stress controlled and strain controlled tests at room temperature were obtained for solution treated and thermally aged 304 stainless steel. All the tests were conducted with the greguency, 1Hz of stress controlled and the strain rate, 40%/min of strain controlled. The aged specimen had the longer fatigue life at the lower stresses than at the higher stresses. It is shown that the fatigue limit of the aged specimen was a little higher than that of the solution treated specimen. It is considered to be due to the presence of carbide precipitates at grain boundary which depressed the crack propagation. The aged specimen showed the larger alternating stress and the more rapid cyclic work harding than the solution treated specimen. Bauschinger effect of the aged specimen was not pronounced than that of the solution treated specimen.

Purpose: This study was conducted to investigate the relationship of aging knowledge, attitudes and awareness about supporting the aged in undergraduate students. Method: The participants were 385 undergraduate students in H University in G city. Data were collected from March 1 to April 30, 2012, and analyzed using SPSS/WIN 18.0. Results: The mean of the aging knowledge score was 51.40, the mean of aging attitudes score was 3.06, and the mean of awareness about supporting the aged score was 4.11. Awareness about supporting the aged showed a positive correlation with aging knowledge (r=.299, p<.001). Awareness about supporting the aged showed a positive correlation with aging attitudes (r=.244, p<.001). Conclusion: The findings of this study indicate a need to develop programs for undergraduate students to increase correct aging knowledge, to encourage appropriate aging attitudes and awareness about supporting the aged. In addition, the need for further studies to examine effects of programs are needed.

This experiment was conducted to evaluate individual difference of chewing speed and chews per bolus duing the rumination using twenty three heads of grazing cattle and thirty six heads of barn feeding cattle. Rumination behaviour was measured and recorded by the masster EMC telemeter and visual observation. The chewing speed (chews/lOOsec) was significantly different individually (C.V. 13.0-14.5 %) among the variable aged group (1-60 months), but that of same aged group showed lower difference (C.V. 4.5 %). The chews per bolus showed even larger individually difference than the chewing speed, so the variable aged group (1-60 months) resulted the 15.5-16.2 %of C.V.and the same aged group showed the 9.5 % of C.V. Under 12 month aged cattle showed more rapid chewing speed than older aged cattle. The chewing speed changed with the growth of cattle, but the chews per bolus did not show any relationship with age, so it is regarded as the individually characteristic pattern.

Currently the industrialization, the urbanization, and the phenomenon of nuclear family is mainstream of korean society. And our country enter into an aging society, on the contrary. The concept of support for aged person is dwindled away. The main reason can be summarized as the aged person's consciousness and the family's economical burden. So, the concern about the facility for the aged person has being issued as a necessary factor to be considered by public. Therefore. the problems of the facility were analyzed and the improvement direction for them were suggested in this study.

In the situation providing the aged society, the contents of the symptoms of senility centering around the aged-pulse condition were arranged. The results were as follows. In the questions about the aged symptoms, the results of indicating the gradual physical-age following the aged symptoms with the real age(from 40 to 100, 7 grade) and the gradual physical-age following the ageing grade of male and female (the 3 grade of the female / the 4 grade of the male) could have the differentiations. And the distinction of the aged pulse condition was observed two pulse condition ; the one is the minute pulse condition(Mi, Sei ;微細) as lowering function and the other is the Hyun, Ghin(弦, 緊) pulse condition as the blood's tention and contration.

Korea reached an aging society in 2000, and it is progressed quickly now. Government forecasts that the number of aged people over 65 years old will increase from 7.2%(2000) to above 14.3% among total population in 2018. Workers over fifty years old are increasing in construction field every year. These aged workers are exposed to various construction accidents, and also their accident rate is very high because of physical and psychological changes by aging. Specially, a disaster of aged workers more than 50 years old is fronted at the serious situation in the construction industry which has variable working environment. Thus, the purpose of this study is to suggest the precaution by analysing disaster characteristics of aged construction workers. Also, this study aims to present a basic counter-plan according to important safety management list which is abstracted from the work, aged construction workers' accident rate is high.

Purpose: The purpose of this study was to identify the reported factors influencing fatigue of middle aged women. Methods: Two hundred seven middle aged women between 40 and 59 years of age were recruited from five areas in Korea from March 1, 2010, to April 20, 2010. Data were collected by self-reported questionnaires. Data analysis was done using SPSS/WIN 15.0 program for descriptive statistics, Pearson correlation coefficients and stepwise multiple regression. Results: The average score of fatigue was $2.34{\pm}0.40$. There were significant differences in reported fatigue according to economic status and health status. The reported fatigue was significantly correlated with somatic attribution, psychological attribution, normalizing attribution, depression, marital adjustment, stress, and social support. The major factors that affect fatigue in middle aged women were stress, depression, and normalizing attribution, which explained 32.3% of fatigue. Conclusion: The findings can reduce the fatigue by controlling stress and depression. Additionally, this study can understand the attribution of fatigue in middle aged women. More studies are needed to identify other variables that influence on the fatigue of middle aged women.

Near infrared (NIR) spectroscopy was used to classify normal and artificially aged nonviable corn (Zea mays L., cv. 'Suwon19') seeds. The spectra at 1100-2500nm were scanned with normal and artificially aged single seeds and analyzed by principle component analysis (PCA). To discriminate normal seeds from artificially aged seeds, a calibration modeling set was developed with a discriminant partial least square 2 (PLS 2) method. The calibration model derived from PLS 2 resulted in 100% classification accuracy of normal and artificially aged (aged) seeds from the raw, the 1st and 2nd derivative spectra. The prediction accuracy of the unknown normal seeds was 88, 100 and 97% from the raw, the $1^{st}$ and $2^{nd}$ derivative spectra, and that of the unknown aged seeds was 100% from all the raw, the $1^{st}$ and $2^{nd}$ derivative spectra, respectively. The results showed a possibility to separate corn seeds into viable and non-viable using NIR spectroscopy.
