This paper presents the experimental results to verify the environmental consciousness with economic balances due to cutting fluid behaviors, effectiveness in machining process. Even though cutting fluid improves the machined part quality through the cooling and lubracating effects, its environmental impact is also increased according to the cutting fluid usage. Because cutting fluid are used by experience than science on shop floors, its environmental impact are more serious to human health hazard, shop floor environments. In this study a few cutting parameters are adopted as the machinability index (i.e. ; tool wear and surface roughness), and aerosol mist diffusion rate of cutting fluid as the environment consciousness index. These indeces are analyzed quantitatively via a few experiements. The results of this study can be facilitate the optimization of cutting fluid usage in achieving a balanced environmental consciousness consideration with economic view.

This study purports to empirically examine the potential effect of the level of social trust on their welfare consciousness level. Although previous studies in the field have focused on socio-economic or class-oriented variables, the accumulated results have shown that the effects were inconsistent at best in Korean context. In order to overcome the limits of theoretical assumptions from mainstream Marxists and institutionalists, this study suggests the relative autonomy of social consciousness and its independent effect on welfare consciousness. The analysis shows that both foundational variables, income levels and labor market participation, and the level of social trust have significant impacts upon the respondents' level of welfare consciousness.
