The purpose of this paper is to present an photoelasticity technique for measuring the displacement and stress distribution in particle assembly subjected to shallow foundation loading. Photoelastic measurement technique was employed to visualize the force transmission of a particle assembly. A model assembly bounded by a steel frame was built by stacking bi-dimensional circular particles made of polycarbonate elastomer. Each particle was coated by a thin photoelastic sheet so that the force transmission represented by bright light stripes can be visualized. In a contacted particle, both magnitude and orientation of principal stress difference can also be measured via the photoelasticity technique. The different distributions of the contact stresses at the initial loading and near the failure were quantitatively compared. The photoelastic patterns and displacement fields observed in the pre-failure state disappears immediately after the buckling of confined force chains.

Polygonatum is a genus placed in the family Liliaceae, distributed throughout the Northern Hemisphere and 16 of the species are grown naturally in Korea. In oriental medicine, the rhizomes of Polygonatum have been used as two different medicines, Okjuk (Polygonati odorati Rhizoma) and Hwangjeong (Polygonati Rhizoma). However, it is difficult to identify the morphological and chemical differences between the medicinal groups and thus easy to confuse the one with the other. Therefore, a clear classification standard needs to be established so as to be able to discriminate between them. In the study, the morphological characteristics of the plants, Polygonatum spp., were examined. Then, the differences in SNPs among the DNA sequences of 7 of the Polygonatum spp. and 1 of the Disporum spp. were analyzed by DNA barcoding with rpoC1, rpoB2, matK, and psbA-trnH of the cpDNA region. In the results, three regions, rpoC1, rpoB2, and matK were useful for discriminating the species, P. stenophyllum and P. sibiricum. Furthermore, it was possible to discriminate the individual germplasm within the species by using the combination of the results obtained from rpoB2, rpoC1, and matK.

In the secure DNS the amount of information that should be managed greatly increased and the interdependency in the information became very complex. Therefore, it became necessary to develop a mechanism which can manage zone information efficiently. Moreover, a consistent interface became also necessary so that a secure DNS may be efficiently interconnected with other Internet application services. In this paper we explain the design and implementation of a secure DNS extended with two functions : (1) a dynamic update function which enables to add and remove zone information dynamically and (2) a zone transfer function that efficiently transfers update zone information among DNS servers. We developed a method which integrates two zone transfer mechanisms, full zone transfer and incremental zone transfer, and also proposed a method to compress data in the zone transfer message. We also introduced a data structure called a delta file to integrate the zone transfer function and the dynamic update function.

Electroless plating is influenced by kinds of parameters including concentrations of electrolyte, plating time, temperature and so on. In this study, the Pt thin films were prepared on GaAs substrate by a 2-step electroless plating depending method. The small Pt catalytic particles by using Pt I bath exhibited islands-morphology dispersed throughout the substrate surface at $65^{\circ}C$, as function as a sensitized thin film, and then a thicker Pt film grew upon the sensitized layer by the second Pt II bath. As the growth of Pt film is strongly influenced by the plating time and temperature, the plating time of Pt II bath varied from 5 min to 40 min at $60{\sim}80^{\circ}C$ after Pt I bath at $60{\sim}80^{\circ}C$ for 5 min. It is found that the film grows with the increasing plating time and temperature. The resistivity value of Pt deposited layer was characterized to study the growth mechanism of 2-step plating.

We investigated the effect of temperature and stock density on the collection efficiency of oral fluid in the pig farm in Korea. Three pig farms with similar breeding environmental conditions were selected and four pens of each farm (total 12 pens) were tested for the collection efficiency of oral fluid from pigs. Collection rate was considered as significant when oral fluid was collected from 70% of pigs within a pen. In the case of growing pigs, when internal temperature of pig barn increased by one designated degree (5℃), the oral fluid collection rate significantly decreased by 24.7% (P<0.05). The collection rate of oral fluid also decreased by 7.1% (P<0.05) as the density rate increase by one designated degree (12.5%). It was estimated that the collection efficiency of oral fluid decreased when the internal temperature of pig barn was 30℃ or higher, or barn density is higher 25% or high. On the other hand, in the case of stall-housing sows, unlike growing pigs, there was no significant differences according to the temperature, so oral fluid collection was considered to be efficient even in hot season.

Conventional slinding genioplsty has the risk of mental nerve injury after operation and difficult to correct vertical asymmetry of chin. So, authors propose a new genioplasty to correct asymmetry of chin. Switching genioplasty is a modification method of conventional genioplasty. Between mandibular right and left canine, osteotomy line of triangular shape make until mandibular lower border. In large side, osteotome line of wedge shape is added to reduction. After osteotomy, segment of wedge shape was separated from chin. Distal segment was rotated to reduction side. Because of rotation of distal segment, space is made in opposite side. Seperated segement of wedge shape from large side is switched this space to fill. So, stability of distal segment is achieved. Authors applied to swiching genioplasty the patients who was remained the chin asymmetry after both sagittal split ramus osteotome was done because mandible asymmetry. After operation, patient and operator were satisfied with excellent esthetic results without any other complication. The switching genioplasty is effective surgical technique for chin asymmetry because it has more advantages than conventional sliding genioplasty. First, other donor side does not need for bone graft. Second, the switching genioplasty can reduce infection, bone resroption, dehiscence, capsular contraction after allograft. Third, have little mental nerve damage. Forth, anteroposterior correction is possible. Fifth, operation time is less than other genioplasty for chin asymmetry.

Recently, Indoor air quality(IAQ) in workplace, residential environments and schools has been concern of people, scientists and related the public. And so in Seoul has recognized the healthy effect related to IAQ in schools. Therefore, the objective of this study reported in this article were to measure and compare the perception of IAQ of selected air pollutants at three different schools in Seoul. We performed a questionnaire survey of 400 students about their awareness for the importance of IAQ in our school. And we measured the IAQ of 3 schools considering as site region, construction year and studying level. The indoor air pollutants and parameters such as temperature, relative humidity, respirable particulate matter(PM10), formaldehyde(HCHO), total bacteria counts(TBC), carbon dioxide(CO$_2$), and noise were monitored in indoors. In results, all most response of occupant has recognized the awareness of IAQ at schools. The PMIO, TBC and Noise level of all schools were higher than the standard of the public 150 ${mu}$g/m$^3$ and 500CFU/m$^3$, the level formaldehyde(HCHO) was below 0.1 ppm of the healthy guideline of Korea And the concentration of CO$_2$ were investigated below 1,000 ppm of the standard implying ventilation in 2 schools except for 1 school(c school). Finally, the control of most important pollutants of IAQ in school were PM10, TBC and Noise. Therefore, it can be concluded that the indoor air quality of selected 3 schools studied was perceived as acceptable, it is recommended that the government related IAQ was suggested the guideline and control of IAQ problems in schools, and all member relating school need to be effort to reduce the exposure of sources to undesirable indoor pollutants such as Particlate and Noise.

Objective : Interaction of warfarin with herbal medicines still remains controversial. The aim of this study was to examine the effect of herbal medicines which contain ginseng on PT INR in patients being treated with warfarin. Method : We studied patients who take herbal medicines which contain ginseng with warfarin during their hospitalization. We retrospectively investigated the effect of herbal medicines which contain ginseng. 10 patients were assigned to receive one of the following adjuncts: Group A (n=4) that received Bojungikkitang-gagam, Group B (n=2) that received Ukgunjatang-gagam, and Group C (n=4) that received Shihogyeji-tang, Gamiondam-tang, Gwininaanshim-tang, and Saengpe-san together. We then investigated changes of PT INR in each group. Result : In group A, there were diminutions of PT INR in 3 cases, and increment in 1 case. In group B, there were increments of PT INR in both cases. In group C, there were increments of PT INR in 3 cases and there was no big change in 1 case. Conclusion : In this study, we found that the interaction of combined herbal medicine is very complicated. So, we must study further more study about interactions of combined herbal medicine on PT INR.

The provincial education office considers providing school lunch as a foodservice and intends to improve consumer satisfaction. This study investigates the effect of student food habits and perceived food quality on satisfaction with school lunch based on Oliver's expectancy disconfirmation theory. We test the moderating effect of student gender and school conditions, such as the location of the school, job positon of the nutrition teacher, renovating kitchen and food distributing place. Questionnaires were collected from 240 sixth graders in the eight elementary schools in Gyeonggi province from August to September 2014. Excluding inadequate questionnaires, 208 were analyzed. PLS (Partial Least Square) and bootstrap t-tests were conducted for this study. The results showed food habits affected satisfaction directly (p<0.01). The perceived food quality of the school lunch service mediated this relationship in part (p<0.01). Moderating effects identified were gender (p<0.1), nutrition teacher's position(p<0.05), and renovating kitchen (p<0.1), but not location of school or distributing place. The study revealed the importance of student food habits and perceived food quality, which had an influence on satisfaction. We make a distinction between the concepts of satisfaction and quality so as to improve student satisfaction. When it comes to offering education program about food habits, the schools with old-fashion kitchen is given priority to than renovating one.

Three species of Italian poplar (Populus euramericana), red pine (Pinus densiflora) and oriental oak (Quercus variabilis) were selected for this study. They were cut so that the distances between each of tips and roots for a pair of fingers were 0, 0.15, 0.30 and 0.45 mm. Poly vinyl acetate (PVAc) and resorcinol-phenol resin (RPR) were used for finger-jointing. Compressive test parallel to the grain was conducted for the finger-jointed specimens. The results were as follows: The efficiency of compressive Young's modulus of finger-jointed timber to solid wood indicated low values, whereas the efficiency of compressive strength indicated high values of more than 90% in all species, especially, it was found that those of red pine indicated markedly high values of more than 97%. The efficiency of compressive displacement of Italian poplar finger-jointed timber was 2 times higher than solid wood, and it was 1.2 and 1.3 times higher than solid woods in red pine and oriental oak, respectively. Also, it was found that 0, the distance between each tip and root for the fingers, indicated the highest efficiency of compressive strength performance in Italian poplar finger-jointed timber, and for red pine and oriental oak finger-jointed timbers, the distances of 0.15 and 0.30 were found to indicate the highest efficiency.
