  • Menstrual cycle irregularity reflects the reproductive health of women of childbearing age, but studies are scant on women in communities. In this study, we identified factors associated with menstrual cycle irregularity among 884 community women of childbearing age (19-40 years) and confirmed the relationship between menstrual cycle irregularity and depressive symptoms. Data were collected through online or mobile platforms. We noted that 25% of participants had menstrual cycle irregularity. Multivariable ordinal logistic regression analysis revealed that age, irregular eating, and depressive symptoms were associated with menstrual cycle irregularity. After adjusting for confounding variables, participants with depressive symptoms were at a slightly higher risk of menstrual cycle irregularity (odds ratio = 1.078, confidence interval = 1.021-1.139). Additional support be provided for community-living women of childbearing age with depressive symptoms, to improve their reproductive health

  • The Otto Cycle of conventional gasoline engine has no difference between compression ratio and expension ratio. because of the same length of 4 strokes : Intake, compression, expension, exhaust. On the other hand, miller cycle engine achieves both low-compression ratio and high-compression ratio by shortening the length of compression stroke among 4 strokes. Therefore miller cycle engine is essential for lessening knocking and improving heat efficiency. This paper Is designed to discribe not only principle and the development trend of miller cycle engine but also the control system and the technical characteristics of it.

  • This paper considers an Economic Order Quantity Model under random life cycle. It is assumed that the life cycle of the product is unknown; a random variable. Three cost parameters are considered; ordering cost, inventory carrying cost and salvage cost. Expected total cost is the optimization criterion. We show that the optimal cycle length is unique and finite, and present a simple line search method to find an optimal cycle length.

  • The number of keystream cycle sequences has been proposed as a characteristic of binary sequence generator for cryptographic application, but in general the most of binary sequence generators have a single cycle. On the other hand, S-box has been used to block cipher for a highly nonlinear element and then we apply it to the stream cipher with a high crypto-degree. In this paper, we propose a multiple-cycle binary sequence generator based on S-box which has a high nonlinearity containing SAC property and analyze its period, linear complexity, randomness and the number of keystream cycle sequences.

  • 복합발전사이클은 서로 다른 온도조건에서 운전되는 두 개의 사이클을 열역학적으로 결합한 발전사이클로서 Fig. 1-(d) 처럼 고온부 사이클에서 배출되는 열량을 저온부 사이클에서 회수하여 전체 시스템효율을 개선하도록 설계되었다$^{1)}$ . 고온부에서 작동하는 사이클을 상부사이클(topping cycle or topper)이라고하며 저온부에서 작동하는 사이클을 하부사이클(bottoming cycle or bottomer)이라고 한다.
