In-plane free vibrations of circular beams with stepped cross-sections are investigated by using the exact analytical solution. The axial extension, transverse shear deformation and rotatory inertia effects are taken into account. The stepped arch is divided into a number of arches with constant cross-sections. The exact solution of the governing equations is obtained by the initial value method. Several examples of arches with different step ratios, different locations of the steps, boundary conditions, opening angles and slenderness ratios for the first few modes are presented to illustrate the validity and accuracy of the method. The effects of the geometric parameters on the natural frequencies are investigated in details. Several examples in the literature are solved and the results are given in tables. The agreement of the results is good for all examples considered. The mode transition phenomenon is also observed for the stepped arches. Some examples are solved also numerically by using the commercial finite element program ANSYS.

The nondimensional differential equations governing the buckling loads of tapered columns with both clamped ends and its boundary conditions are derived, in which the effects of shear deformations are included. These equations are solved numerically using a numerical integration technique and a bracketing method to obtain the buckling loads of columns. Four types of cross-sectional shape are considered in the numerical examples. The parametric studies of shear deformation effects on the buckling loads such as cross-sectional shape factor, shear coefficient, ratio of modulus of elasticity, slenderness ratio and section ratio are reported in tables and figures.

Purpose: Unilateral strength training effects on contralateral sides have been demonstrated in previous studies for lower extremity exercise, upper extremity exercise, and unilateral surface electrical stimulation. This study was performed to investigate the effects of unilateral ankle training on muscle strength and the balance of contralateral lower extremity in healthy adults. Methods: Thirty healthy subjects were randomized equally to a training or a control group. Those in the training group received unilateral ankle isokinetic strengthening training of the dominant leg (right side) for 4 weeks. Contralateral single-limb balance, including Anterio-Posterior Stability Index (APSI), Medio-Lateral Stability Index (MLSI) and Overall Stability Index (OSI), was assessed before and after intervention. Results: Comparison of pre- and post-test data revealed significant improvements in ipsi- and contralateral ankle strengths, and significant improvement in contralateral single limb balance. Conclusion: These results have practical implications because they demonstrate that unilateral ankle isokinetic exercise improves ankle muscle strength and balance ability of contralateral lower extremity.

The nondimensional differential equations governing the buckling loads of tapered columns and its houndarv conditions are derived, in which the effects of shear deformations are included. These equations are solved numerically using a numerical integration technique and a bracketing method to obtain the buckling loads of columns. Four types of cross-sectional shape with clamped-free end constraint are used in the numerical examples. The parametric studies of shear deformation effects on the buckling loads such as cross-sectional shape factor, shear coefficient, ratio of modulus of elasticity, slenderness ratio and section ratio are reported in tables and figures.

Logistic regression is a well known binary classification method in the field of statistical learning. Mixed-effect regression models are widely used for the analysis of correlated data such as those found in longitudinal studies. We consider kernel extensions with semiparametric fixed effects and parametric random effects for the logistic regression. The estimation is performed through the penalized likelihood method based on kernel trick, and our focus is on the efficient computation and the effective hyperparameter selection. For the selection of optimal hyperparameters, cross-validation techniques are employed. Numerical results are then presented to indicate the performance of the proposed procedure.

본 연구는 내구소비재를 중심으로 판매원의 지각된 속성이 고객의 판매원에 대한 만족과 점포에 대한 만족, 교차구매의도, 점포추천의도간의 구조적 관계를 알아보고자 하였다. 이를 위해 대도시 소재 내구소비재를 직접 구매한 경험이 있는 소비자들을 대상으로 설문을 조사하여 250부의 설문지가 최종분석에 사용되었다. 분석결과 첫째, 판매원의 지각된 전문성, 진실성, 호감성, 고객지향성은 고객의 판매원에 대한 만족에 유의한 정(+)의 영향을 미침을 확인하였다. 둘째, 판매원의 고객지향성은 판매원에 대한 만족뿐만 아니라 점포에 대한 만족에도 유의한 정(+)의 효과를 가짐을 확인하였다. 셋째, 판매원에 대한 만족은 판매원의 지각된 속성들과 점포에 대한 만족을 매개하는 것으로 나타났다. 넷째, 판매원에 대한 만족과 점포에 대한 만족은 판매원의 지각된 속성들과 교차구매의도, 점포추천의도간의 관계를 매개하는 것으로 나타났다. 끝으로 내구소비재 관련 실무자들을 위한 관리적 시사점을 제시하였다.

유럽 등 해외에서는 TBM 굴착방식을 이용한 터널이 다수 건설되고 있지만, 국내에서는 거의 적용되고 있지 않다. TBM 철도터널의 적용성을 높이기 위해서는 토목적 설계요소와 공기역학적 영향을 고려한 최적단면을 선정할 필요가 있다. 이러한 최적단면의 선정시에는 터널 연장, 열차 속도, 전차선 높이, 공동규 규격 등 토목적인 설계요소에 대한 고려와 함께 공기역학적 영향을 검토하여 적정 단면 계획의 수립이 필요하다. 공기역학적 검토시에는 최근 철도터널의 고속화를 고려하고 적절한 분석기준의 수립이 필요하지만 현재 국내에서는 관련기준이 없어 터널마다 상이한 공기압 분석기준이 적용되고 있는 실정이다. 따라서 본 연구에서는 국내외 이명감 및 미기압 분석기준에 대하여 검토하고, TBM 터널단면별 공기역학적 분석을 통해서 TBM 철도터널의 단면선정시 공기역학적 영향과의 상관관계에 대해 분석하였다.

Purpose: The objective of this study was to identify the effects of a telephone follow-up program on patient compliance, urea kinetic modeling and incidence of infection in patients with continuous ambulatory peritoneal dialysis (CAPD). Method: A pretest-posttest design with a nonequivalent control group was used to examine the effects of a telephone follow-up program for 12 weeks in a group of 39 CAPD patients. The telephone follow-up group of 17 patients received telephone follow-up 10 min once a week for 1 month and 10 min twice a month for 2 months during 12 weeks compared to control group of 22 who patients received usual care. Results: The telephone follow-up group showed no significant changes in patient compliance and urea kinetic modeling, although patients with CAPD receiving a telephone follow-up showed reduced incidence of exit site infection during the intervention compared with the control group. Conclusion: Telephone follow-up program for CAPD patients may decrease the incidence of exit site infection. Future studies with a larger sample be done utilizing diet and exercise reinforcement program combined with telephone follow-up as a nursing intervention for patients with CAPD.

Purpose: Human acellular dermal matrix(ADM) is widely used in the treatment of congenital anomalies and soft tissue deficiencies. But it is rapidly degraded in the body and does not provide satisfactory results. There is a need to improve collagen fiber stability through various methods and ultimately regulate the speed of degradation. Methods: The ADMs were added with various cross-linking agents called glutaraldehyde, dimethyl 3,3'-dithiobispropionimidate to produce cross-linked acellular dermal matrices. 1,4-butanediol diglycidyl ether solution was applied with a pH of 4.5 and 9.0, respectively. The stability of cross-linked dermal matrix was observed by measuring the shrinkage temperature and the degradation rates. The cross- and non-cross linked dermis were placed in the rat abdomen and obtained after 8, 12 and 16 weeks. Results: The shrinkage temperature significantly increased and the degradation rate significantly decreased, compared to the control(p<0.05). All of cross-linked dermises were observed grossly in 16 weeks, but most of non-cross linked dermis were absorbed in 8 weeks. Histologically, the control group ADM was found to have been infiltrated with fibroblasts and most of dermal stroma were transformed into the host collagen fibers. However, infiltration of fibroblasts in the experiment was insignificant and the original collagen structure was intact. Conclusion: Collagen cross-linking increases the structural stability and decreases degradation of acellular dermis. Therefore, decrease in body absorption and increase in duration can be expected.

2거더 강교량의 건설 효율성 등을 위해서는 구조형식, 특히 가로보를 포함하는 구조계의 거동평가에 기초한 효율적이고 합리적인 설계기준 등의 제시가 필요할 것으로 생각된다. 따라서, 본 연구에서는 2거더 강교량에서 하중전달 역할을 하는 가로보의 위치, 간격 및 강성의 영향인자가 2거더 강교량의 거동 특성에 미치는 영향을 조사하고 합리적인 가로보 배치 기준을 제시하고자 한다. 기존 2거더 강교량을 대상교량으로 선정하고 가로보 특성을 적절하게 평가할 수 있는 몇가지 구조 모델링에 대해 구조해석을 실시한 결과, 가로보의 모델은 국부적인 응력집중과 바닥판의 하중분배 효과를 고려할 수 있는 쉘요소 및 솔리드 요소가 적합할 것으로 판단된다. 이러한 쉘요소 및 솔리드 요소를 사용하여 가로보의 배치 위치, 배치 간격 및 강성을 변수로 구조해석을 실시하여 효율적인 가로보 설계기준을 제시하였다.
