  • Parametric bodies reproduce the actual shape of human body parts and should be convenient for general users to change size to judge the visual fit of clothes on-line. In this study, three parametric bodies(i.e. I, C, D ) were compared to verify the accuracy of the provided body dimensions and reproducibility to a target model. To compare reproducibility, the 20s female standard virtual model developed for an apparel industry by Korean agency for technology and standards is used. The investigation of existing parameters showed that the numbers and kinds of parameters provided by each program were different with some errors in notation; in addition, some of virtual body dimensions went beyond the maximum allowable error. The result of changing each parametric body to the 20s female standard body showed that D, C, I in order produced better reproducibility for body dimensions. There were different levels of protrusion and concavity in the virtual cross sections and virtual longitudinal sections despite the small differences in body dimensions and cross sectional areas; in addition, some parametric body was not bilateral symmetry. The results of this study can be used as basic information in the standardization of a virtual model used in a virtual garment program.

  • This study proposed the new method of discerning the assembled parts and presuming the position of central point in a Cowl Cross Bar (CCB) using a Charge-Couple Device (CCD) camera attached to a robot in the auto assembly line. Three control points of an ellipse were decided by three reference points, which were equally distanced. The radii of these reference points were determined by the size of the object, and the repeated presumption secured the precise determination. The comparison of the central point of ellipse presumed by Randomized Hough Transform (RHT) with the part information stored in a database was used for determining the faulty part in an assembly. The method proposed in this study was applied for the real-time inspection of elliptical parts, such as bolt, nut hole and so on, connected to a CCB using a CCD camera. The findings of this study showed that the precise decision on whether the parts are inferior or not can be made irrespective of the lighting condition of industrial site and the noises of the surface of the part. In addition, the defect decision on the individual elliptic parts assembled in a CCB showed more than 98% accuracy within a 500-millisecond period at most.

  • The accurate estimation of leak rate through cracks is crucial in applying the leak before break (LBB) concept to pipeline design in nuclear power plants. Because of its importance, several programs were developed based on the several proposed flow models, and used in nuclear power industries. As the flow models were developed for a homogeneous pipe material, however, some difficulties were encountered in estimating leak rates for bimaterial pipes. In this paper, a flow model is proposed to estimate leak rate in bimaterial pipes based on the modified Henry-Fauske flow model. In the new flow model, different crack morphology parameters can be considered in two parts of a flow path. In addition, based on the proposed flow model, a program was developed to estimate leak rate for a crack with linearly varying cross-sectional area. Using the program, leak rates were calculated for through-thickness cracks with constant or linearly varying cross-sectional areas in a bimaterial pipe. The leak rate results were then compared and discussed in comparison with the results for a homogeneous pipe. The effects of the crack morphology parameters and the variation in cross-sectional area on the leak rate were examined and discussed.

  • The present study is following a series of research investigations on design resources coming from collected data referring to users' awareness and preferences. The aim of this research is to test the Healthcare Environmental Color Index as a basis for practitioners in the field of healthcare design. An array of color samples selected from previous research, have been presented to the respondents via an online survey, in order to identify the preferences of the two groups on the relation between environmental color and health. As a result of the first experiment and through the comparison of processed data, the maximum percentage of respondents from each group is validating the relation between environmental color and health. For the second experiment we intend to highlight the patterns of color preferences for each group, and thus to test the color samples healing function. The compared data also showed a higher awareness of Koreans than Romanians on the potential of color applied to healing environment. Last but not least in the third experiment we show the top five color samples preferred by each group. It is significant that the comparison of the results validated once more some of our previous findings related to the healthcare environment, such as: the general preference for the green hue (associated to fatigue relax according to color psychology) and the blue hue (sedation release effect) but also the yellow hue - associated to bright energy. Three out of the top five preferred color samples have been identical to both groups while the other two samples have shown characteristic variations. These results show that similarities are strong and can be used in a glocal design strategy as an accessible tool for any practitioner. Based on the Healthcare Environmental Color Index and users' preferences analysis, a new design culture for healthcare can be established and developed.

  • This research attempts to investigate differences in past experiences of using internet in repurchasing. In doing so, the authors identify online consumer characteristics, particularly one-time and repeat users comparison across geographical borders of Korean and Taiwanese teenage customers. Results show that there are significant differences in online shopping typologies between Korean and Taiwanese customers. While attitude serves as a distinguishing factor for both data sets along the other two dimensions, trust does not. Since researchers have focused on comparisons between Western cultures and Asian cultures' online purchase behavior or Internet use, the current study provides a valuable comparison for this niche population of young customers at least in a Korean-Taiwanese context. The authors also make a brief argument that these findings can influence marketing practitioners and site developers in their strategies.

  • 목조건축의 기반을 넓히고 소비자의 만족도를 향상시키기 위해 기존의 일반목조벽체 및 기타 경량목조벽체에 대한 비교 연구가 필요하다. 따라서 본 연구에서는 일반벽체와 개선된 방식인 교호 샛기둥 벽체와의 성능 비교를 통해 새로운 가능성을 찾고자 하였다. 우선 교호 샛기둥 벽체의 강도적 특성을 평가하고 일반벽체의 강도적 특성을 비교하였다. 일반벽체를 구성하는 목재의 단면이 교호 샛기둥 벽체보다 크기 때문에 일반벽체의 최대하중이 교호 샛기둥 벽체 보다 크게 나타났다. 하지만, 두 그룹간의 통계분석에 의하면 95% 신뢰 수준에서 유의성을 보이지 않아, 교호 샛기둥 벽체는 일반벽체를 대체할 수 있는 가능성을 보여주었다. 교호 샛기둥 벽채는 샛기둥의 단면이 일반벽체보다 작기 때문에 재료를 절약할 수 있어서 일반벽체보다 더 경제적이라고 판단된다. 또한 단열재의 면적 또한 증가하므로 열교 현상의 개선도 기대된다.

  • This experiment was carried out to find suitable sample type for the more accurate prediction and non-destructive way in the application of near infrared reflectance spectroscopy (NIRS) technique for estimation the protein, total amino acids, and total isoflavone of soybean by comparing three different sample types, single seed, whole seeds, and milled seeds powder. The coefficient of determination in calibration ($R^2$) and coefficient of determination in cross-validation (1-VR) for three components analyzed using NIRS revealed that milled powder sample type yielded the highest, followed by single seed, and the whole seeds as the lowest. The coefficient of determination in calibration for single seed was moderately low($R^2$ 0.70-0.84), while the calibration equation developed with NIRS data scanned with whole seeds showed the lowest accuracy and reliability compared with other sample groups. The scatter plot for NIRS data versus the reference data of whole seeds showed the widest data cloud, in contrary with the milled powder type which showed flatter data cloud. By comparison of NIRS results for total isoflavone, total amino acids, and protein of soybean seeds with three sample types, the powder sample could be estimated for the most accurate prediction. However, based from the results, the use of single bean samples, without grinding the seeds and in consideration with NIRS application for more nondestructive and faster prediction, is proven to be a promising strategy for soybean component estimation using NIRS.

  • Glycine속의 야생 다년생종인 G. tomentella가 가지고 있는 내병성, 고단백 및 다년생 유전자등 유용형질들을 재배콩(G. max)에 도입하기 위한 종간교잡시 염색체수가 다른 4개의 G. tomentella (2n=38, 40, 78, 80) 계통들과 재배콩과의 교잡친화성 검정, 정역간 교잡효과, 교잡엽의 발육비교, 종간 교배적기 등에 대해 시험한 결과를 요약하면 다음과 같다. 1. G. tomentella의 염색체수가 2n=38, 40, 78, 80인 4개 계통과 재배콩인 울산콩, 뱀콩, 단엽콩과의 종간 교잡에서 G. tomentella의 염색체수가 2n=38인 계통과 교배된 것이 교배율 및 교배후 경과일수에 따른 협생존률이 가장 양호하여 2n=38계통이 재배콩과의 교잡친화성이 가장 높은 것으로 나타났다. 2. G. max(cv. Baemkong)와 G. tomentella(2n=38)와 종간교잡에서 정역교잡 효과는 G. max를 모본으로 했을 때가 G. tomentella를모본으로 했을 때보다 교배율이 더 높았고, 엽생존기간도 더 길어 정역교잡의 효과가 인정되었다. 3. G. max(cv. Baemkong)와 G. tomentella(2n=38)와의 종간교잡에서 교잡협의 발육상태를 자가수정된 모본의 협과 비교했을 때 G. max를 모본으로 한 것이 G. tomentella를 모본으로 한 것보다 협당 배주수의 감소율이 적었으나, 교배후 경과일수에 따른 협의 장, 폭 및 무게는 G. max를 모본으로 한 경우가 생육이 저조하였다. 4. 자연조건에서 G. max와 G. tomentella(2n=38)와의 종간 교잡을 할 경우 6월 이나 7월에 하는 것보다 대체로 온도와 습도가 높고 단일조건인 8월 중하구에 하는 것이 교배율이 높았다.
