The purpose of this study is to search the level of localization strategy of imported brands in Korean Market, to investigate relationship between the brand characteristics and localization strategy, and to study the case about localization strategy of the brand selected according to the type of brand. The survey research was employed and for the data analysis, descriptive statistics, one-way ANOVA, and multiple-regression were used. For the case study, interview with the person who works in the each kind of company was used. The results of this study were as follows: Firstly, the level of localization strategy is found in order price, place, promotion and product. Secondly among the brand characteristics, type of brand, proportion of garments, price zone, launching time, number of shop are related with localization strategy, but turnover and number of the staff are not. Thirdly, license brand has the characteristics like as national brands and the differences between the branch and the agent is confidence and communication that are the basic elements of localization. This study can help national brands to refer the localization strategy and provide the understanding of localization strategy of imported brands in Korean fashion market.

Robustness and controllability are the key factors in internal combustion engine commercialization. This study focuses on the combustion strategy to commercialize the low temperature diesel combustion technology. Various LTC combustion methods such as PPCI, MK and highly diluted mixing controlled LTC were conducted on 6.0L heavy duty diesel engine. To find the best feasible LTC strategy, emission level, fuel consumption and combustion safety during the combustion mode change were considered. Experiments were carried out under various engine operating conditions; engine speed & load, EGR level, injection timing. Finally, this study suggests realizable LTC combustion strategy; moderate EGR level and slight early injection are possible to considerably lower PM, NOx emission and expand LTC operating range up to 50% load without CO and HC emission.

This study employs a novel beam-type wavelet finite element model (WFEM) to fulfill an adaptive-scale damage detection strategy in which structural modeling scales are not only spatially varying but also dynamically changed according to actual needs. Dynamical equations of beam structures are derived in the context of WFEM by using the second-generation cubic Hermite multiwavelets as interpolation functions. Based on the concept of modal strain energy, damage in beam structures can be detected in a progressive manner: the suspected region is first identified using a low-scale structural model and the more accurate location and severity of the damage can be estimated using a multi-scale model with local refinement in the suspected region. Although this strategy can be implemented using traditional finite element methods, the multi-scale and localization properties of the WFEM considerably facilitate the adaptive change of modeling scales in a multi-stage process. The numerical examples in this study clearly demonstrate that the proposed damage detection strategy can progressively and efficiently locate and quantify damage with minimal computation effort and a limited number of sensors.

Purpose: This research examines the relationship between green marketing strategy and CSR policy and identifies how companies can leverage this relationship to attract green customers. The conceptual model for this study shows the relevance of companies adopting both green marketing strategies and CSR policies to show how committed they are regarding environmental sustainability and fulfill their responsibilities towards various stakeholders. Research design, data and methodology: This research has conducted the literature content approach and the key measures used for this study were based on mostly peer-reviewed journal articles. Those studies already indicated the high degree of reliability and validity. Consequently, the current researcher removed conference papers into the analysis. Results: This research provides brief suggestions for companies to incorporate the findings of this study into their green marketing strategies and CSR policies. Companies that align their green marketing strategies with their CSR policies, and CSR policies with their customers' values, are more likely to attract environmentally conscious customers and increase their loyalty. Conclusions: This research concludes that there exists a positive relationship between green marketing strategy and CSR policy and the outcomes of this research add to the body of knowledge on how these two concepts can be integrated to achieve business and societal benefits.

Animals are one of the important memberships of the food chain. The low-efficiency rule of nutrient transfer from one member to the next in the food chain determines the low efficiency of animal agriculture for human food. On the average, about 20% feed proteins and 15% feed energy can be converted into edible nutrients for humans. The rest proportion of feed nutrients is exposed to the environment. Environmental pollution, therefore, is inevitable as animal agriculture grows intensively and extensively. The over-loading of the environment by nutrients such as nitrogen, phosphorus from animal manure results in soil and water spoilage. The emission of gases like $CH_2$, $CO_2$, $SO_2$, NO, $NO_2$ by animals are one of the contributors for the acidification of the environment and global warming. The inefficient utilization of natural resources and the probable unsafety of animal products to human health are also a critical environmental issue. Improving the conversion efficiency of nutrients in the food chain is the fundamental strategy for solving environmental issues. Specifically in animal agriculture, the strategy includes the improvements of animal genotypes, nutritional and feeding management, animal health, housing systems and waste disposal programs. Animal nutrition science plays a unique and irreplaceable role in the control of nutrient input and output in either products or wastes. Several nutritional methods are proved to be effective in alleviating environmental pollution. A lot of nutritional issues, however, remain to be further researched for the science of animal nutrition to be a strong helper for sustainability of animal agriculture.

The increase in atmospheric carbon dioxide concentrations is known to be closely associated with climate change and global warming. In this sense, considering that facilities for appropriate education and experience on wood, which is a carbon pool, have been required, this study targets the Wood Cultural Experience Centers, which are in current operation, examines and evaluates their operation status and policy changes, and ultimately derives a successful positioning plan. To this end, it conducts a survey, and the results are as follows. First, as a result of the similarity analysis (KYST: Kruskal-Young-Shepard-Torgerson program) with facilities with leisure activities and educational functions, the Wood Cultural Experience Center have competition with natural recreation forests in terms of naturalness, and it has competition with the career experience center and youth training center in terms of experiential observation. Second, the result of positioning analysis of the attribute space map indicates that the Wood Cultural Experience Center is positively perceived in terms of such attributes as naturalness, experiential learning or recreation, and preservation of natural environment, but is negatively recognized in terms of accessibility, escape from daily life, and things to see.

This study proposes a system identification technique for a fiber-reinforced polymer deck with neural networks. Neural networks are trained for system identification and the identified structure gives training data in return. This process is repeated until the identified parameters converge. Hence, the proposed algorithm is called an iterative neural network scheme. The proposed algorithm also relies on recent developments in the experimental design of the response surface method. The proposed strategy is verified with known systems and applied to a fiber-reinforced polymer bridge deck with experimental data.

In this paper, we propose a new strategy for a space robot to control its attitude. A space robot is an example of a class of non-holonomic systems, a system of which cannot be stabilized into its equilibria with continuous static state feedbacks even in the case that the system is, in some sense, controllable. Thus, we cannot design stabilizing controllers for space robots using conventional control theories. The strategy presented here transforms the non-holonomic system into a time-state control form, and allows us to make the state of the original system any desired one. In the stabilization, any conventional control theory can be applied. For simplicity, a space robot with a two-link manipulator is considered, and a simulated motion of the controlled system is shown.
