The attack of environmental aggressive agents progressively reduces the structural reliability of buildings and infrastructures and, in the worst exposition conditions, may even lead to their collapse in the long period. A change in the material and sectional characteristics of a structural element, due to the environmental damaging effects, changes its mechanical behaviour and varies both the internal stress redistribution and the kinematics through which it reaches its ultimate state. To identify such a behaviour, the evolution of both the damaging process and its mechanical consequences have to be taken into account. This paper presents a computational approach for the analysis of reinforced and prestressed concrete elements under sustained loading conditions and subjected to given damaging scenarios. The effects of the diffusion of aggressive agents, of the onset and development of the corrosion state in the reinforcement and the corresponding mechanical response are studied. As known, the corrosion on the reinforcing bars influences the damaging rate in the cracking pattern evolution; hence, the damage development and the mechanical behaviours are considered as coupled phenomena. The reliability of such an approach is validated in modelling the diffusion of the aggressive agents and the changes in the mechanical response of simple structural elements whose experimental behaviour is reported in Literature. A second set of analyses studies the effects of the corrosion of the tendons of a P.C. beam and explores potentially unexpected structural responses caused by corrosion under different aggressive exposition. The role of the different types and of the different positions of the damaging agents is discussed. In particular, it is shown how the collapse mode of the beam may switch from flexural to shear type, in case corrosion is caused by a localized chloride attack in the shear span.

Purpose: The concept of embarrassment as an unpleasant emotion is important in caring for those who are in the continuum of illness and health requiring body care and facing sexual problems. In spite of its nursing implication, embarrassment has not been focused in nursing research. Therefore, the purpose of this paper is to develope a conceptual analysis of embarrassment. This analysis would help to understand comprehensively an embarrassing situation in which an intimate relationship between nurse and patient regarding body care of the patient could develope. Futhermore, it would be a basis for developing strategies for prevention of embarrassment which could lead for both patient and nurse to emotionally vulnerable situation because of their failure of self-presentation (impression management). Method: The concept analysis model suggested by Walker and Avant (1988) is used to clarify what is meant by the term 'embarrassment'. Result: This analysis defines the attributes of embarrassment such as follows. First, embarrassment is often attributed to situational factors interrupting a smooth interaction such as intimacy, confusion, vulnerability, exposure of interaction and characteristics of audience. Second, embarrassment is closely related with cognitive factor such as fear of losing face resulted from a behaviour being out of line. Third, embarrassment is closely associated with dispositional factor such as embarrassability. Fourth, embarrassment is an unpleasant and unwanted emotion arising reactively after an interaction had occurred. Fifth, embarrassment encloses physical, physiological and behavioral aspects such as a variety of unique and easily noticeable reactions and a pattern of verbal and non-verbal behaviour for coping in an embarrassing situation. The antecedents were normally socialized adolescents with normal cognitive ability, concern of losing face, embarrassability, embarrassing events related with situational intimacy, confusion, vulnerability, exposure of interaction and characteristics of audience, physical, behavioral blunders resulting in a failure of impression management. The consequences were an emotional coping behaviour, audience's embarrassment responses, and verbal and non-verbal coping strategies of interactional participants. Conclusion: It is hoped that this analysis will stimulate further exploration of this concept and study for developing systematic assessment and nursing practice that diminishes embarrassment of interactional participants.

An experiment was carried out to investigate the effect of change in length of hay offered on eating and rumination behaviour in sheep using three types of hay diets (L: long, M: 8.0-cm cut, S: 1.2-cm cut) and 3 Japanese Corriedale wethers, and the experiment was designed as $3{\times}3$ latine square. The time spent eating per 100 g hay was significantly shorter with long (L) hay (p < 0.05) than with chopped (M and S) hay, and therefore, the eating rate (g D.M./min.) was significantly higher in the former (p < 0.05) than in the latter. Rumination appearance (the lag time after eating) tended to be longer with long hay than with chopped hay, but not significantly (p > 0.05). Daily time spent ruminating, the actual chewing time and daily number of chews tended to be more in feeding long hay than in feeding chopped hay, but not significantly. Daily number of rumination periods was significantly more with long hay (p < 0.01) than with chopped hay. Cyclic rate tended to be longer with long hay than with chopped hay, in particular, the difference in values between long hay and 8.0-cm cut hay was significant statistically (p < 0.01). The rumination index (time spent ruminating/100 g D.M, eaten) tended to be higher with long hay than with chopped hay, and the difference in values between long hay and 1.2-cm cut hay was significant statistically (p < 0.05). Bolus time was significantly longer with long hay (p < 0.01) than that with 8.0-cm cut hay. The circadian pattern of ruminating time was not changed by the changes in length of hay eaten.

Pushover analysis has gained significant popularity as an analytical tool for realistic determination of the inelastic behaviour of RC structures. Though significant work has been done to evaluate the demands realistically, the evaluation of capacity and realistic failure modes has taken a back seat. In order to throw light on the inelastic behaviour and capacity evaluation for the RC framed structures, a 3D Reinforced concrete frame structure was tested under monotonically increasing lateral pushover loads, in a parabolic pattern, till failure. The structure consisted of three storeys and had 2 bays along the two orthogonal directions. The structure was gradually pushed in small increments of load and the corresponding displacements were monitored continuously, leading to a pushover curve for the structure as a result of the test along with other relevant information such as strains on reinforcement bars at critical locations, failure modes etc. The major failure modes were observed as flexural failure of beams and columns, torsional failure of transverse beams and joint shear failure. The analysis of the structure was by considering all these failure modes. In order to have a comparison, the analysis was performed as three different cases. In one case, only the flexural hinges were modelled for critical locations in beams and columns; in second the torsional hinges for transverse beams were included in the analysis and in the third case, joint shear hinges were also included in the analysis. It is shown that modelling and capturing all the failure modes is practically possible and such an analysis can provide the realistic insight into the behaviour of the structure.

게임 고객의 충성도 혹은 재구매 의도를 경영학의 고객 충성도 이론을 적용해 보는 거시적 분석이 있었지만 게임 시스템이 복잡해지면서 흥행에 성공한 특정 게임의 장기 충성 사용자의 행동 패턴을 분석함으로써 실증적으로 그 게임에 대한 애착과 성공의 원인을 알아보는 것도 의미가 있다. 본 논문에서는 2012년 출시되어 초창기에 흥행에 큰 성공을 거두고 지금도 점유율 10위권에 자리하고 있는 판타지 퓨전 무협 MMORPG 블레이드 앤 소울의 3년 이상 장기충성 사용자들의 행동 패턴이 1년 미만의 캐주얼 집단, 플레이 경력 1~3년 사이의 집단과 어떻게 다른 지 222명의 피험자에 대해 설문을 통해 살펴보았다. 그 결과 그 게임의 강점으로 알려진 던전 활동, 비무, 전장의 전투 방식과 내용보다는 그 게임 커뮤니티에의 끈끈한 애착이 더 중요했다. 심지어 전투 밸런스의 만족도는 5점 척도에서 모든 그룹이 1점대를 기록하기도 하고 초심자와 장기사용자가 1~3년 사용자보다 전투 레벨이 높은 U-커브를 나타내기도 했다. 이에 다시 148명의 장기 사용자의 설문 분석을 통해 커뮤니티 내 인간관계 형성 요인과 패턴을 조사하였다.

경제적, 환경적 이유에서, 승용차 이용을 억제하고 대중교통수단 분담율을 제고하는 교통정책은 수도권 지자체에게 있어 매우 중요한 과제이다. 통행행태를 근본적으로 이해하는 것은 이러한 정책의 수립과 집행에 매우 중요한 필요조건이다. 소규모 샘플자료를 이용, 특정한 통행 행태와 몇몇의 사회경제적 혹은 지리공간적 변수들 간의 상관관계에 대한 횡단면적 분석을 행하는 것이 이 분야 전통적인 연구주제였다. 연구결과는 스냅샷과 유사한, 시공간적으로 제한된 정보만을 제공한다. 그러나, 통행은 공간적으로 상이한 장소에서 벌어지는 일상활동 참여로부터 파생되며, 일상 활동계획 상에서의 활동-통행 간 순서 관계는 통행 행태의 중요한 틀이다. 본 연구는 다차원 정보배열비교법과 핵심정보배열추출기법을 이용, 서울시민의 일일 대중교통 이용 자료인 스마트 카드 자료를 분석하여 서울시내 대중교통 이용 행태의 일반 특성을 탐구한다. 분석 결과 서울 강남/북 간 버스-전철 연계통행과 간선버스 통행간 통행 행태의 중요한 차이를 확인할 수 있었다. 즉 통행패턴은 보통 강북과 강남 권역 안에서 형성이 되어 있어, 자연 장애물인 한강을 건너 강남/북을 가로지르는 통행패턴은 상대적으로 적었다. 또한 강북과 강남 각각의 권역 안에서 CBD를 들르는 통행패턴은 보통 전철 혹은 지선버스-전철의 연계교통수단을 이용하는 데 반해 지선버스 혹은 간선버스만을 이용하는 통행패턴은 CBD가 아닌 지역으로 목적지가 국한되는 경향이 있다.

NMT 공법의 올바른 적용을 위해선 암반속 절리면 거동분석이 선행되어야함을 인식하고 절리면의 전단특성 및 구성모델을 검토하였다. 특히, Barton-Bandis 모델로 대변되는 비선형 절리 모델의 정확한 이해와 모델을 구성하고 있는 제반 물성치의 합리적인 산출을 위하여 암반의 불연속체 거동을 지배하는 중요인자인 절리면 거칠기(JRC), 절리면 압축강도(JCS) 및 잔류마찰각(${\phi}_r$)에 대한 매개변수 분석을 수행하여 합리적인 입력값 산정이 가능하도록 하였다. 또한 Barton-Bandis 모델과 Mohr-Coulomb 모델과의 비교분석을 통하여 불연속체 거동 특성파악을 위한 구성모델을 검토하고자 하였다. 본 연구 결과 JRC 및 ${\phi}_r$의 영향이 JCS에 비해 상대적으로 큰 것으로 평가되었으며, 터널안정 해석시에 낮은 JRC 값을 채택하는 것이 반드시 불안전측을 고려하는 것은 아님을 알 수 있었으며, ${\phi}_r$은 암반의 거동에 큰 영향을 주는 매우 중요한 요소이므로 ${\phi}_r$값에 대한 합리적인 산정이 필요한 것을 알 수 있었다. 아울러 전단시 절리면의 팽창효과가 암반의 거동에 중요한 역할을 하는 경우, 전단변형 진행에 따라 절리면의 거동을 효과적으로 구현할 수 있는 Barton-Bandis 모델이 Mohr-Coulomb 모델에 비해 더욱 적절함을 알 수 있었다.

A dimeric precursor, $[Cu(dmae)(OCOCH_3)(H_2O)]_2$ for the CVD of copper metal films, (dmaeH = N,N-dimethylaminoethanol) was synthesized by the reaction of copper(II) acetate monohydrate ($Cu(OCOCH_3)_2{\cdot}H_2O$) and dmaeH in toluene. The product was characterized by m.p. determination, elemental analysis and X-ray crystallography. Molecular structure of $[Cu(dmae)(OCOCH_3)(H_2O)]_2$ shows that a dimeric unit $[Cu(dmae)(OCOCH_3)(H_2O)]_2$ is linked to another through hydrogen bond and it undergoes facile decomposition at 300 C to deposit granular copper metal film under nitrogen atmosphere. The decomposition temperature, thermal behaviour, kinetic parameters, evolved gas pattern of the complex, morphology, and the composition of the film were also investigated.

Researches based on the pattern of planned behavior holds that the three variables of entrepreneurial attitudes, subjective norms, and perceived behavior control influence each other and influence entrepreneurial intentions respectively. However, there are also different, even conflicting research conclusions that continue to emerge. Researches based on the pattern of alertness, believe that profit opportunities and individuals' pursuit to truth are the driving forces. Many scholars have demonstrated the impact of individual entrepreneurial alertness on entrepreneurial intentions. However, as an exogenous causal agent, profit opportunities have a logical problem: if there are no other assumptions, the mere existence of opportunities does not adequately explain entrepreneurial alertness. To address this gap, this study considered samples from mainland China, where entrepreneurial activities are very active currently, to test the role that entrepreneurial alertness is assumed to play in the planned behavior model. The results show that the three dimensions of alertness, individually partly intermediate the influence of entrepreneurial attitude on entrepreneurial intention, the influence of subjective norms on entrepreneurial intention, and that of perceived behavior control on entrepreneurial intention. This article studied the production of entrepreneurial intention by integrating the two patterns of planned behavior and alertness through empirical analysis, and opened up a new field for subsequent research on entrepreneurial intention.

What human beings wear is closely related to how they conceptualize their bodies and how they classify the group they belong to and the way they wear their cloth s an important cultural element that shows wearers' awareness and social relationship. Especially, underclothes reflect unrevealed cultural inside of the society more abundantly than outer wear do. Through such characteristics of underclothes, we are able to better understand inherent order of culture. This study si to understand the characteristics and changes of Korean culture by reviewing the convention of underclothes wearing that takes important role in clothing without being explicitly revealed. For this study, in addition to biblical review of under clothes of traditional societies, a total of 301 college students aging from 19 to 28, who are the most open to accepting new cultures and changes, residing in Seoul area were participant. Questionnaire consists of open-ended questions of underclothes terms, kinds, why they wear, items of wearing, how they obtained, how they take care of, etc. In conclusion, changes in cultural meaning of underclothes analyzed through convention of underclothes wearing are as follows; 1) changes in wearing pattern implies changes in functions of underclothes and changes in members' roles and values in a society; 2) changes in recognition of underclothes are related to the changes in awareness of sex; 3) consumer behaviour of underclothes represents a part of information culture; 4) changes in the pattern of maintaining underclothes show that differentiation of sex role in household tasks is decreased.
