In order to accumulate data to lower the friction coefficient of a press mold, tribological tests were performed before and after coating SM45C with a PVC/PO film and plasma coating (CrN, concept). The ultrasonic nanocrystal surface modification (UNSM)-treated material had a nano-size surface texture, high surface hardness, and large and deep compressive residual stress formation. Even when the load was doubled, the small amount of abrasion, small weight of the abrasion, and width and depth of the abrasion did not increase as much as those of untreated materials. A comparison of the weight change before and after the tribological test with the CrN and the concept coating material and that of the untreated material showed that the wear loss of the concept coating material and P-UNSM treated material (that is, the UNSM treated material treated with the concept coating) showed a tendency to decrease by approximately 55-75%. Concept 100N had a lower friction coefficient of about 0.6, and P-UNSM-30-100N showed almost the same curve as concept 100N and had a low coefficient of friction of about 0.6. The concept multilayer coating had a thickness of $5.32{\mu}m$. In the beginning, the coefficient of friction decreased because of the plasma coating, but it started to increase from about 250-300 s. After about 350 s, the coefficient of friction tended to approach the friction coefficient of the SM45C base metal. The SGV-280F film-attached test specimen was slightly pushed back and forth, but the SM45C base material was not exposed due to abrasion. The friction coefficient was 0.22, which was the lowest, and the tribological property was the best in this study.

A substantial body of evidence has emerged over the last decade in support of the novel concept that dietary calcium and dairy foods play an important role in regulating energy metabolism and thereby promote healthy weight management and reduce obesity risk. This concept has been demonstrated in experimental animals studies, cross-sectional and prospective population studies and a number of randomized clinical trials. Notably, the effects of dairy foods in weight management are more consistent than the effects of supplemental calcium across clinical trials, and calcium per se is responsible for approximately 40-50% of the effects of dairy. The calcium component is only effective in individuals with chronically low calcium intake, as it serves to prevent the endocrine response to low calcium diets which otherwise favors adipocyte energy storage; calcium also serves to promote energy loss via formation of calcium soaps in the gastrointestinal tract and thereby reduce fat absorption. The calcium-independent anti-obesity bioactivity of dairy resides primarily in whey. The key components identified to date are leucine and bioactive peptides resulting from whey protein digestion. The high concentration of leucine in whey stimulates a repartitioning of dietary energy from adipose tissue to skeletal muscle where it provides the energy required for leucine-stimulated protein synthesis, resulting in increased loss of adipose tissue and preservation of skeletal muscle mass during weight loss. Finally, dairy rich diets suppress the oxidative and inflammatory responses to obesity and thereby attenuate the diabetes and cardiovascular disease risk associated with obesity.

Present combustion engines have reached almost at the limit of development due to the fundamental structural problems. This study was carried out to propose a new concept internal combustion engine which has great potential advantages to the conventional engines. Proposed new concept engine is a kind of rotary engine. A rotor is rotating concentrically in a cylinder which is divided into two partitioning valves. and it makes four compartments in the cylinder. The volumes of each of four compartments are changing continuously with the rotor movement, and performs the functions of intake, compression. expansion and exhaust simultaneously. The results of this study can be summarized as follows. 1. Expected theoretical thermal efficiency is 44.9 percent at the condition of 1000rpm and compression ratio of 8.0. which is almost the same as that of the conventional engines. i.e., piston and Wankel rotary engine. 2. The new concept engine has 2. working strokes in every revolution. Therefore. the new concept engine can reduce the specific weight and volume than four-stroke piston engine. 3. The torque variation is very small. therefore minimal noise and vibration are expectable. 4. The new concept engine can reduce mechanical energy loss than piston engine because neither crank mechanism nor eccentrical motion exists.

본 논문에서는 퍼지 트리플을 사용하는 내용 기반 이미지 검색 방법을 제안한다. 이미지 내 객체들 사이의 공간 관계는 내용 기반 이미지 검색을 위해 사용되는 주요한 속성들 중의 하나이다. 그러나, 기존의 트리플을 이용한 이미지 검색 시스템들은 개념 기반 검색 방법을 지원하지 못하고, 방향들 사이의 근사 정합을 처리하지 못하는 문제점을 가지고 있다. 이 문제를 해결하기 위하여 본 논문에서는 개념 기반 정합과 근사 정합을 지원하는 퍼지 트리플을 이용한 이미지 검색 방법을 제안한다. 개념 기반 정합을 위해서는 퍼지 소속성 집합으로 이루어진 시소러스가 사용되며, 근사 정합을 위해서는 방향들 사이의 관계를 정량화 하기 위한 k-weight 함수가 각각 이용된다. 이 두 가지 정합은 퍼지 트리플 간의 퍼지 정합을 통하여 균일하게 지원될 수 있다. 본 논문에서는 또한, 개념 기반 정합과 근사 정합에 대한 검색 효과를 정량적으로 평가하는 작업을 수행한다. Abstract This paper proposes an inexact and a concept-based image match technique based on fuzzy triples. The most general method adopted to index and retrieve images based on this spatial structure may be triple framework. However, there are two significant drawbacks in this framework; one is that it can not support a concept-based image retrieval and the other is that it fails to deal with an inexact match among directions. To compensate these problems, we develope an image retrieval technique based on fuzzy triples to make the inexact and concept-based match possible. For the concept-based match, we employ a set of fuzzy membership functions structured like a thesaurus, whereas for the inexact match, we introduce k-weight functions to quantify the similarity between directions. In fuzzy triples, the two facilities are uniformly supported by fuzzy matching. In addition, we analyze the retrieval effectiveness of our framework regarding the degree of the conceptual matching and the inexact matching.

Due to the global environment problems and the consumer's need for higher vehicle performance, it becomes very important for the global car makers to reduce vehicle weight. To reduce vehicle weight, many car makers have tried to use lightweight materials, for example, aluminum, magnesium, and plastics, for the vehicle structures and components. Especially, the ASF(aluminum space frame) is known for the excellent concept of the vehicle to satisfy structural rigidity, safety performance and weight reduction. In this research, the design of experiments and the multi-disciplinary optimization technique were utilized to meet the weight and structural rigidity target of the ASF. For the structural performance of the ASF, the locations and the size of aluminum extruded frames, aluminum cast nodes, and the aluminum sheets were optimized. As a result, the optimization design procedure has been set up to meet both structural and weight target of the ASF, and the assembled ASF showed good structural performance and weight reduction.

The purpose of this paper is to introduce the concept design and the structural strength of the double-deck rolling stock vehicle. Aluminum is very useful material for the carbody structure due to its characteristic of light weight. Large alumillum extrusion profiles(panels) have toe of merits such as easy production of complicated shapes, reduction of welding and cutting lines, and cutting down the labor cost. AED type is being applied to the standard EMUs and the EMUs Kwangju subway in Korea. Light material recommended the double-deck rolling stock vehicle because the center of gravity of the train is higher and its weight is heavier than those of the normal vehicle. So we applied the technology of the large aluminum extrusion profiles(panels) to the double-deck vehicle. We performed the structural strength analysis and examined its safety.

Crashworthiness design concept in the helicopter development is still under evolutionary stage. Survivability in the event of a crash was remarkably improved and this fact can be recognized by the analysis results on the AH-64 Apache and UH-60 Black Hawk crash accidents. Those two models are the first ones in which the crashworthiness design concept was applied with a full-scale requirement. Here we need to notice that under-design of the system results in unexpected injuries and deaths while over-design of the crashworthy elements result in unnecessary weight and costs. If landing gear system would be verified to have enough energy absorption capability in the specified vertical velocity interval, then design requirements of the airframe, fuel system and seats could be modified positively. In this paper, the right and systematic crashworthiness design concept is reviewed on the assumption that design requirements of some crashworthy elements could be partially tailored.

Purpose: To explain the concept of postpartum weight retention and to analyze factor effect on it. Method: A total of 20 studies related postpartum weight retention were selected in the year of 1988-2001 and analysis was done. Result: A demographic factor like parity, age, social and economic level and life style such as exercise, diet, breast feeding are influential factor on postpartum retention weight. But parts of them don't agree the same results. Meanwhile, in some studies, psychological factor like women's self esteem related to postpartum retention weight, body image change, depressing is found to be very related. As a result, postpartum overweight gain could be a bad factor of physical and mental health. In Korea, we have few studies related to them. Conclusion: It is required to do many-sided and deep studies about aspects of postpartum retention weight and the factor that effect on it. Postpartum retention weight should be approached by controling weight from the period of pregnancy. And it would rather be researched through individual approach considered women's various demographic, social-cultural and physical level than be required standardized level of weight gain.

This study was an attempt to survey, the relationships between women's self-concept and preference in clothing design. For the measurement of the self-concept scale was to select the somatic self and the social self which were explained Jung Won Sik's. The preference rate in clothing design consists of 58 items and 3 factors. (color, form, and texture). The questionnaires were administered to a sample of women (between the ages of 20 and 50) who lived in Seoul, Korea. The data for 658 respondents were analyzed by Pearson's correlation coefficient, $x^2$-test, F-test and Duncan-test. Through this study, the followings were founds: 1. There were significant relations between the self-concept and the preference for clothing color in value, chroma and warmth. 2. There were no significant relations between the self-concept and the preference for clothing form in line, silhouette and style. 3. There were significant relations between the self-concept and the preference for texture in touch, thickness, weight and luster. 4. There were significant differences in the preference of clothing design according to their age. That was largely devided into two groups; one's 20' s and the others 30's$\~$40's.
