To investigate the motion-induced aeroelastic effects (or aerodynamic feedback effects) on a square cylinder in uniform flow, a series of wind tunnel tests involving the pressure measurement of a rigid model (RM) and simultaneous measurement of the pressure and vibration of an aeroelastic model (AM) have been systematically carried out. More specifically, the aerodynamic feedback effects on the structural responses, on the mean and root-mean-square wind pressures, on the power spectra and coherence functions of wind pressures at selected locations, and on the aerodynamic forces were investigated. The results indicated the vibration in the lock-in range made the shedding vortex more coherent and better organized, and hence presented unfavorable wind-induced effects on the structure. Whereas the vibration in the non-lock-in range generally showed insignificant effects on the flow structures surrounding the square cylinder.

The modeling and animation of natural phenomena have received much attention from the computer graphics community. Synthetic of natural phenomena are required for such diverse applications as flight simulators, special effects, video games and other virtual realty. In special effects industry there is a high demand to convincingly mimic the appearance and behavior of natural phenomena such as smoke, waterfall, rain, and fire. Particle systems are methods adequate for modeling fuzzy objects of natural phenomena. This paper presents particle system API(Application Program Interfaces) for generating special effects in virtual reality applications. The API are a set of functions that allow C++ programs to simulate the dynamics of particles for special effects in interactive and non-interactive graphics applications, not for scientific simulation.

We have investigated the photoinduced birefrinence by the electric field effects in chalcogenide thin films. The electric field effects have investigated the various applied bias voltages(forward and reverse) in chalcogenide thin films. A pumping (inducing) and a probing bean were using a linearly polarized He-Ne laser light (633nm) and semiconductor laser light (780nm), respectively. The result was shown that the birefringence had a higher value in DC +2V than the others, Also, we obtained the birefringence in the electric field effects by various voltages. In addition, we have discussed the anisotropy property of chalcogenide thin films by the electric field effects.

A sensible media simulation system for automobiles is introduced to open up new possibilities for an in-car entertainment system. In this paper, the system architecture is presented, which includes a virtuality-to-reality adaptation scheme. Standard data schemes for context and control information from the International Standard MPEG-V (ISO/IEC 23005) are introduced to explain the details of data formats, which are interchangeable in the system. A sensible media simulator and the implementation of a sensory device are presented to prove the effectiveness of the proposed system. Finally, a correlation between learning styles and sensory effects (that is, wind and vibration effects) is statistically analyzed using the proposed system. The experiment results show that the level of satisfaction with the sensory effects is unaffected overall by the learning styles of the test subjects. Stimulations by vibration effects, however, generate more satisfaction in people with a high tactile perception level or a low visual perception level.

This study aimed to verify the mediating effects of cognitive function and social support and to establish a structural relationship between child maltreatment and resilience in school-age children (n=357) taken in by child protection service. In the first model (linear arrangement), each protective factor mediates independently between maltreatment and resilience; in the second model (arrangement in due order), cognitive function has mediating effects prior to social support. Analysis of data included descriptive statistics, Cronbach's a, confirmatory factor analysis, and structural equation modeling. Results of the first model showed indirect effects of cognitive function and social support. Results of the second model significantly affirmed that the mediators, cognitive function and social support, diminish negative effects of maltreatment by bolstering resilience.

Objectives : Fructus mume(F. mume) has been used as a medicine for thousands of years in East Asia and reported to have effect on cognitive deficits induced by chronic cerebral hypoperfusion. We investigated F. mume's effects on psychiatric and central nervous system in medical classics. Methods : 25 materia medica books and Donguibogam were searched to find psychiatric and central nervous system effects of F. mume. Two Korean Medicine doctors reviewed the effects from the clinical point of view. Results : 安心(relieve psychiatric discomfort), 令人得睡 治不眠(Treat insominia), 去煩悶(relieve chest discomfort) were psychiatric effects and 偏枯不仁(hypoesthesia accompanied with hemiplegia) was central nervous system effect of F. mume. Conclusions : Further studies will be needed to demonstrate F. mume's effects found in medical classics.

The antihistamine effects of the triprolidine were studied in rats to determine the feasibility of their enhanced transdermal delivery from the poly (4-methyl-1-pentene) (TPX) matrix system containing penetration enhancer and plasticizer. The antihistamine effects were determined by the Evans blue dye procedure by comparing the changes in vascular permeability increase following the transdermal administration. The vascular permeability increase was significantly reduced by transdermal administration of the triprolidine-TPX system containing triethyl citrate (TEC) and polyoxyethylene-2-oleyl ether (POE). Both the plasticizer and penetration enhancer played an important role in the skin permeation of triprolidine and increased the antihistamine effects. These results showed that the triprolidine-TPX matrix system containing plasticizer and penetration enhancer could be a transdermal delivery system providing the increased antihistamine effects.

This study investigates the mediation effects of affection-rejection parenting in the relationships between reports by mothers in regards to marital conflicts and the behavior and emotional control of preschoolers. The participants were 311 preschoolers and their mothers. A total of 311 preschoolers attended kindergartens or day care centers in Daegu or Gyeongbuk Province. The collected data were analyzed by Pearson's correlation, single and hierarchical multiple regressions, using SPSS Win 15.0. The results are as follows. (1) Mothers' marital conflicts exerted indirect effects on preschoolers' behavioral control mediated by affection parenting. (2) Mothers' marital conflicts exerted indirect effects on preschoolers' behavioral control mediated by rejection parenting. (3) Mothers' marital conflicts partly exerted indirect effects on preschoolers' emotional control mediated by affection parenting. (4) Mothers' marital conflicts partly exerted indirect effects on preschoolers' emotional control mediated by rejection parenting.

This paper explores the causal relationship between acceptance attitudes and expected effects of smart work. With the rapid development of smart technologies, lots of organizations try to innovate in the conventional working styles for maximizing organizational effectiveness and efficiency. Although many organizations wish to foster smart working environment, they don't have confidence in detailed action plans and effects from it. Therefore, this study that explores the causal relationship between acceptance attitudes and effects may have crucial meaning to organizations pursuing smart work. In this research empirically conducted by questionnaire survey, the acceptance attitudes as predictors and the expected effects of smart work as influenced variables were used. This research analyzed 118 collected data and multiple regression analysis. As a result of analysis, teleworking shows the positive relations to all of dependent variables. And others have a positive or negative influence on effects of smart work. Results of this study may give implications to organizations that want to implement smart work environment.

Marginalized random effects models (MREMs) are often used to analyze longitudinal categorical data. The models permit direct estimation of marginal mean parameters and specify the serial correlation of longitudinal categorical data via the random effects. However, it is not easy to estimate the random effects covariance matrix in the MREMs because the matrix is high-dimensional and must be positive-definite. To solve these restrictions, we introduce two modeling approaches of the random effects covariance matrix: partial autocorrelation and the modified Cholesky decomposition. These proposed methods are illustrated with the real data from Korean genomic epidemiology study.
