The transient response of PEMFC (proton exchange membrane fuel cell) is important criteria in the application of PEM fuel cell to real automotive system. In this work, using a transparent unit PEM fuel cell, the transient response and cathode flooding during load change are investigated. The cell voltage is acquired according to the current density change($0.3Acm^2$ to $0.6A/cm^2$) under various stoichiometry conditions and different flooding intensities, Also the cathode gas channel images are obtained by CCD imaging system simultaneously. The different level of undershoots appeared at the moment of load changes under different cathode stoichiometries and flooding intensities. The correlation of the dynamic behavior with stoichiometry and cathode flooding is induced from the results of these experiments.

A construction noise is the main reason for people's petition among the pollution. The purpose of this study is to develop the noise prediction program to see the level of the noise on the construction site more accurately. For this purpose, the database of the power level on the various equipments was made. The noise reduction by distance and the noise reduction by diffraction of barrier were mainly considered and calculated. The simple noise prediction program will provide the information about proper height and length of the potable barrier which satisfies noise criteria of the construction sites from a construction planning stage. To investigate the reliability of this program, the predicted data was compared with the measured data. An average of difference between measured data and predicted data is 1.3 dB(A) and a coefficient of correlation is about 0.95.

Since the expressway was first opened in 1968 there has been continued demand for constructing new lines of expressway, and thus it amounts to 1,420.5km in total length as of 1984. As the expressway becomes to take up more important role in our country facing motorization traffic accidents have become more of social issues, although its accident rates are relatively low compared to those on general highways in Korea, which is among the highest in the world. The purpose of the study is to investigate the correlation between the traffic accident rates on the expressway and their geometric characteristics based upon 1982 data. In order to extract the correlationship among them on as much disaggregate basis, the study has carried out the analysis on the primary data aggregated on the 100 meter intervals. One of the important findings was, among others, the design criteria of the expressway should be reconsidered with respect to the radius of the curve, superelevation, climbing lane, composed gradients, interchange facilities, tunnels and so on.

In Sasang Constitution Medicine (SCM), it is most important that a personal SCM type is determined accurately ahead of applying any Sasang treatments. Although SCM doctors have districted personal SCM types in many hospitals and universities via their own discriminant, it still lacks objective criteria on diagnosis of SCM type. Therefore, many researchers have been studied to diagnose the SCM type using constitutional clinical data. Previous work, we have developed decision tree program to analyze the clinical information. In this paper, we developed a clinical index program based on the web to analyze the correlation among clinical information. Finally, we identified useful factors(4 clinical indexes) which have significant influence on SCM types using clinical index program with previously developed decision tree program.

An analytical model which can simulate the post-cracking nonlinear behavior of reinforced concrete (RC) members such as bars and panels subject to uniaxial and biaxial stresses is presented. The proposed model includes the description of biaxial failure criteria and the average stress-strain relation of reinforcing steel. Based on strain distribution functions of steel and concrete after cracking, a criterion to consider the tension-stiffening effect is proposed using the concept of average stresses and strains. The validity of the introduced model is established by comparing the analytical predictions for reinforced concrete uniaxial tension members with results from experimental studies. In advance, correlation studies between analytical results and experimental data are also extended to RC panels subject to biaxial tensile stresses to verify the efficiency of the proposed model and to identify the significance of various effects on the response of biaxially loaded reinforced concrete panels.

Purpose: The purpose of this study was to identify patterns and trends of hardiness studies and to suggest the direction of further research. Method : Forty-seven hardiness studies were collected through internet searching and were reviewed by some criteria. Result : The results showed that hardiness studies have increased rapidly since 1990's. Eighteen studies were thesis' for degrees and others were for non-degree research studies. All studies employed the non-experimental design, particularly correlational studies. In the sampling method, all studies used non-probability sampling. Most commonly used instrument for hardiness measurement was Pollock(1986)'s HRHS. In the majority of research, hardiness was treated both as a composite measure and 3 subscales. Hardiness-related concepts were 27 and classified into 5 categories such as health behavior, stress, adaptation, support, and others. Most common statistical technique was Pearson's correlation coefficient, followed by regression, ANOVA, path analysis. Conclusion : To be utilized as practical nursing knowledge, hardiness studies should be done with more empirical analysis such as experimental research, and Meta-analysis is needed to compare the effect size and significance of composit and 3 subscales of hardiness construct.

For reliable operation of oil-filled electrical equipment, monitoring and maintenance of insulating oil is essential. Dissolved gas analysis(DGA) is widely used for monitoring faults in high voltage electrical equipment in service. Therefore, oil analysis should be monitored regularly during its service life. KEPCO has investigated thousands of dissolved gas analysis data since 1985, and conducted studies on the relationship of gas in oil analysis and internal inspection results of transformer. As the results, KEPCO revised criteria for transformer diagnosis and has applied it since 2008. Almost of 100 cases of internal inspection results since 2001 have been investigated. This paper presents the correlation of the fault-identifying gases with faults found in actual transformers and how should we approach to internal inspection of transformer by dissolved gas analysis.

The purpose of this study is to identify issues for an effective safety culture assessment by conducting a case study of an electronics manufacturing plant in Korea. Cooper's safety culture model was used as the assessment method, and Fleming and Hudson's safety culture maturity models were applied as assessment criteria. The results of the safety culture assessment showed that there needs to be a design optimized for study purposes. For example, the correlation between the questionnaire survey and in-depth interview needs to be analyzed. The result of the behavior monitoring should show the relationships with other dimensions. A safety culture maturity model has to be developed to customize the study factors and questions.

First lactation records of 683 Murrah buffaloes maintained at National Dairy Research Institute, Karnal, were used for comparing the sire evaluation for age at first calving, first lactation 305-day or less milk yield and first service period. The sires were evaluated using Simple daughters average, Contemporary comparison, Least-squares and BLUP methods. The BLUP evaluations were obtained under single-, two- and three-trait individual animal models. The results revealed that for taking a decision regarding the method of sire evaluation to be used for selecting sires with high breeding values, criteria of the rank correlation could be misleading and comparison of the selected sires is likely to give a veritable picture. The Best Linear Unbiased Prediction method under multi-trait animal model incorporating first lactation milk yield with first service period as a covariable and age at first calving in the model was found to be more efficient and accurate for sire selection in Murrah buffaloes.

This research focuses on similarity evaluation of images according to tones of images. Color space of images were converted RGB color space into HSI color space. The information entropy criteria has been taken for evaluating similarity of images for digital library. The similarity was then calculated by combining correlation coefficients and information entropy. Those two values are further analyzed with a relation to human sensibility.
