  • 본 연구에서는 사질토 지반에 설치한 원형수직터널에서 아칭효과를 고려한 토압의 거동 특성을 분석하기 위해 실제의 응력상태를 재현할 수 있는 원심모형실험(centrifuge model test)을 수행하였다. 이를 위해 직경 6.0m, 높이 15.0m의 원형수직터널을 대상으로 축소모형 실험체를 제작하였으며, 중력장 75G를 가속하여 2회 반복실험을 수행하였다. 더불어, 지반굴착에 따른 토압의 거동특성과 크기를 분석하기 위하여 모형 수직터널 벽체를 2단으로 분리하여 굴착효과를 모사하였으며, 그 결과를 선행연구에서 제안한 이론토압식과 비교하였다. 실험결과, 원형수직터널에 작용하는 토압은 기존의 2차원(Ko) 토압에 비해 약 70% 가까이 전토압이 저감되는 효과가 관찰되었으며, 이는 3차원 아칭효과에 의해 토압이 경감된 것으로 판단된다.

  • Objective: In this study, we used resting-state fMRI data to map differences in functional connectivity between a comprehensive set of 8 distinct cortical and subcortical brain regions in healthy controls and Internet addicts. We also investigated the relationship between resting state connectivity strength and the level of psychopathology (ex. score of internet addiction scale and score of Barratt impulsiveness scale). Background: There is a lot of evidence of relationship between Internet addiction and impaired inhibitory control. Clinical evidence suggests that Internet addicts have a high level of impulsivity as measured by behavioral task of response inhibition and a self report questionnaire. Method: 15 Internet addicts and 15 demographically similar non-addicts participated in the current resting-state fMRI experiment. For the connectivity analysis, regions of interests (ROIs) were defined based on the previous studies of addictions. Functional connectivity assessment for each subject was obtained by correlating time-series across the ROIs, resulting in $8{\times}8$ matrixs for each subject. Within-group, functional connectivity patterns were observed by entering the z maps of the ROIs of each subject into second-level one sample t test. Two sample t test was also performed to examine between group differences. Results: Between group, the analysis revealed that the connectivity in between the orbito frontal cortex and inferior parietal cortex, between orbito frontal cortex and putamen, between the orbito frontal cortex and anterior cingulate cortex, between the insula and anterior cingulate cortex, and between amydgala and insula was significantly stronger in control group than in the Internet addicts, while the connectivity in between the orbito frontal cortex and insula showed stronger negative correlation in the Internet addicts relative to control group (p < 0.001, uncorrected). No significant relationship between functional connectivity strength and current degree of Internet addiction and degree of impulsitivy was seen. Conclusion: This study found that Internet addicts had declined connectivity strength in the orbitofrontal cortex (OFC) and other regions (e.g., ACC, IPC, and insula) during resting-state. It may reflect deficits in the OFC function to process information from different area in the corticostriatal reward network. Application: The results might help to develop theoretical modeling of Internet addiction for Internet addiction discrimination.

  • The purpose of this study was to examine female consumers' attitudes and purchase intentions toward intimate apparel brands. To understand female consumers' shopping behaviors for intimate apparel products, this study examined interrelationships among brand familiarity, perceived risk, attitudes, and purchase intentions toward intimate apparel brands. A conceptual model was developed by adopting perceived risk theory (Cox, 1967) and theory of reasoned action (Ajzen & Fishbein, 1980). A pre-survey using a paper and pencil was conducted to identify the most familiar intimate apparel brand to young female consumers. The majority of pre-survey respondents (66 female college students) indicated Victoria's Secret as the most prominent intimate apparel brand. Therefore, Victoria's Secret was used to examine possible effects of brand familiarity on perceived risk and attitudinal and behavioral responses toward the brand. Using a web-based survey, 384 complete responses were collected from young female college students between the ages of 18-29 at a Mid-southern U.S. university. A structural equation modeling was employed to test the proposed research model and hypotheses. Results showed positive, statistically significant associations among the four variables (e.g., brand familiarity, perceived risk, attitudes, and purchase intentions). The findings suggested that young female consumers who are familiar with a particular intimate apparel brand are likely to perceive a low level of risk, leading to positive, strong attitudes with purchase intentions toward that particular intimate apparel brand. This suggests establishing brand familiarity through integrated marketing communication is crucial for risk reduction strategy in intimate apparel shopping.

  • Consumers are prone to engage in browsing because they are, for a variety of reasons, open to spending opportunities that grab their attentions. In-store browsing is the in-store examination of a retailer's merchandise for recreational or/and informational purposes without an immediate intent to buy. Browsers made more unplanned purchases than non-browsers in a regional mall setting. As a form of on-going search, in-store browsing is a central component in the impulse buying process. The purposes of this study were 1) to examine the causal relationships among fashion involvement, hedonic consumption, browsing and impulse buying behavior, and 2) to investigate the mediating effects of browsing on impulse buying behavior for fashion products. A questionnaire was developed from a literature review and measured on a 7-point rating scale. Data were obtained from 413 students attending universities in Busan. The self-administered questionnaire was given during a scheduled class. Using structural equation modeling, the results indicate that the proposed model of this study is appropriate to explain the mediating effects of browsing on impulse buying behavior for fashion products. The model shows that fashion involvement and hedonic consumption are important as antecedents of browsing in fashion stores, and consumers browsing longer in fashion stores would tend to increase the likelihood of experiencing impulse buying behavior. That is, browsing in store plays an important mediating role in triggering impulse buying behavior for fashion products. The results from this study provide some insights into retail marketing theory supporting the trait and behavioral aspects of impulse buying. Future research and managerial implications are addressed.

  • Numerical simulation of the non-linear behavior of (RC) structural walls subjected to severe earthquake ground motions requires a reliable modeling approach that includes important material characteristics and behavioral response features. The objective of this paper is to optimize a simplified method for the assessment of the seismic response and damage development analyses of an RC structural wall building using macro-element model. The first stage of this study investigates effectiveness and ability of the macro-element model in predicting the flexural nonlinear response of the specimen based on previous experimental test results conducted in UCLA. The sensitivity of the predicted wall responses to changes in model parameters is also assessed. The macro-element model is next used to examine the dynamic behavior of the structural wall building-all the way from elastic behavior to global instability, by applying an approximate Incremental Dynamic Analysis (IDA), based on Uncoupled Modal Response History Analysis (UMRHA), setting up nonlinear single degree of freedom systems. Finally, the identification of the global stiffness decrease as a function of a damage variable is carried out by means of this simplified methodology. Responses are compared at various locations on the structural wall by conducting static and dynamic pushover analyses for accurate estimation of seismic performance of the structure using macro-element model. Results obtained with the numerical model for rectangular wall cross sections compare favorably with experimental responses for flexural capacity, stiffness, and deformability. Overall, the model is qualified for safety assessment and design of earthquake resistant structures with structural walls.

  • 본 연구의 목적은 연속류의 미시적 행태분석을 통해 새로운 용량개념을 정의하고 이에 대한 용량 산정방법을 개발하고 제안하는데 있다. 교통자료 검지체계의 기술적 발전은 기존 미국 도로용량편람에서 활용된 자료에 비해 정확하고 많은 자료의 수집을 가능하게 하고, 이에 따라 교통류 해석에 대한 다양한 학문적 접근이 시도되면서 기존도로용량의 정의와 산정기준의 한계점이 드러나고 있다. 대안적 용량개념은 교통류-밀도 관계에서 용량감소와 이력현상을 포함한 혼잡교통류의 특징을 포괄적으로 해석하려는 시도로써, 확률적 모형과 행태적 또는 역학적 모형으로 구분할 수 있다. 그러나 대안적 용량개념으로 제안된 두 가지 모형 역시 연속류의 다양한 상태와 상태변동을 설명하기에는 한계점을 가지고 있다. 본 연구에서는 이러한 한계를 극복하기 위하여, 연속류의 미시적 행태자료를 통해 시추이 속도-밀도 관계. 집계간격과 교통량-속도-밀도 관계, 차두시간 분포특성, 그리고 자유속도 분포특성 분석을 수행하고, 용량의 기준이 되는 차두시간을 통계적으로 결정함으로써 교통제어를 위한 새로운 용량개념을 정의하고 이에 대한 용량산정방법을 개발하였다.

  • Ensuring the confidentiality of patient records is critical requirement for quality of care and in fulfilling legal obligation of healthcare organizations. This study analyzed the behavior of hospital employees who are dealing with confidential patient information in a hospital. Theory of Planned Behavior(TPB) model and TPB expanded models that add habit concept to TPB are tested for the validity in explaining the predisposing factors that affect the behavior of hospital employee in ensuring the confidentiality of patient records. Data were collected by administrating a survey to the 350 employee of a tertiary care hospital. Of the 350 questionaries distributed, 321 were responded resulting 92% of response rate. The mean differences among the groups classified by age, years of experience, gender, and occupation were analysis using ANOVA. The relationships among the concepts suggested in the models were analysed by applying the Structural Equations Modeling method. The results of ANOVA indicated significant mean differences in the frequency of confidentiality ensuing behavior. Administrative staff and medical technicians show higher frequency of ensuing behavior compared to the physicians and the nurses. And more experienced employee show more confidentiality ensuring behavior. The results of Structural Equations analysis showed that the strong effect of habit and attitude in predicting the behavior. However, the effect of perceived behavioral control was not significant. Based on the results the theoretical and practical implications are discussed.

  • 통신망 관리시스템은 다양한 구조와 특성을 가진 이질적인 통신망 구성요소를 효과적으로 감시, 제어하여 통신망을 효율적으로 운영하는 기능 외에, 사용자들로부터 요구되는 고도의 통신서비스를 신속하게 제공할 수 있어야 한다. 이를 위하여 ITU-T, ISO 등에 의해 제정된 표준 권고안은 통신망 구성요소들간의 단순한 통신규칙을 정의하는 것 외에 통신망 관리에 필요한 자원들의 속성과 동적 특성에 대한 추상화된 표현, 그리고 통신망 구성요소들에 대한 관리기능을 포괄적으로 규정하고 있다. 그러나 표준 통신망 구성요소를 기술하는 현재의 표준안이 관리객체의 구조나 속성 등 정적인 부분은 전형적으로 기술하는데 반해 관리객체의 동적 특성에 대해서는 체계적으로 기술하지 못하고 있어, 관리객체의 전체적인 특성을 완전히 표현하지 못하는 문제점을 가지고 있다. 본 논문에서는 통신망 관리에 대한 표준 권고안을 근거로 모든 통신망 관리객체에 공통적으로 적용될 수 있는 관리객체 동적 특성의 구성요소를 정의하고, 이들 구성요소간의 시간지원, 능동 특성을 기반으로 한 관리객체의 동적 특성에 대한 체계적이고 전형적인 기술방법을 제시한다.
