Uncooked rice Tackju was prepared from the groud rice with different particle size such as 12, 20, 35 and 50 mesh, and its characteristics were analysed during the brewing. Reducing sugar and ethanol contents as well as yeast cell counts were the highest in main mash and Tackju prepared from 20 mesh fraction. Especially, reducing sugar content was about. 1.5-2.5 times as much as that obtained from 35 or 50 mesh fraction. The final concentration of ethanol in main mash prepared from 20 mesh fraction was 14.8%(v/v). It was about 1.5%(v/v) higher than the lowest one [13.35%(v/v)] which was prepared from 12 mesh fraction. No significant difference In total acidity was observed. Sensory evaluation revealed 20 or 35 mesh Tackju to be the best in overall preference, especially in sweet and refreshing tastes.

The purpose of this study was the development and validation of a test of young children's understanding and their ability to represent the elements of traditional Korean music. The test was reviewed by professional groups and modified by preliminary testing. In its final form, the Korean Traditional Music Ability Test(KTMAT) for 4- to 6-year-old children consists of 43 items covering understanding and ability to represent Changdan(Changdanhyung, Bak, Bbareugi and Semyeorim) and Garak(Eumjeong and Sikimshae). Item analysis, reliability and validity tests were statistically significant. The KTMAT is an evaluation tool that can be used as basic material for developing children's musical ability, and it can provide valuable information showing direction for children's Korean traditional music education.

Experimental programs were accomplished to improve and evaluate the structural performance of test specimens, such as the hysteretic behavior, the maximum horizontal strength, crack propagation of and ductility etc. Test variables are restraining factors of frame, with or without masonry infilled wall, and masonry method Six reinforced concrete rigid frame and masonry infilled wall were tested and constructed in one-third scale size under vertical and cyclic loads simultaneously. Based on the test results, the following conclusions can be made. For masonry infilled wall with restraining factors of frame, maximum horizontal capacities were increased by 1.91~2.24 times in comparision with that of rigid frame. For masonry infilled wall with restraining factors of frame(IFWB-l~3), cumulated energy dissipation capacities wear increased by 1.35~l.60 times in comparision with that of masonry infilled wall(IFB-1) at final stage of testing.

The purpose of this study was to investigate the level of assets and liabilities of farm households and to evaluate the financial status of rural middle-aged and old-aged household using financial ratios. For these purposes an empirical survey data was gathered from rural middle-aged and old-aged households in 8 provinces using structured questionnaires. 877 households data were used in final analysis. The statistical methods used for data analysis are frequency percentile mean The statistical methods used for data analysis are frequency percentile mean median standard deviation $\chi$2 and t-test using SPSS/PC WIN program. Among financial ratios 64.7% of total households could meet the guideline of consumption to income ratio 5.9% of total households could meet the appropriate level of short-term and long-term liquidity. In the case of debt burden ration 82% of total households could meet the guideline. And 28.5% of total households could meet the guideline of capital stock ratio .

In the optimized design of an actual structure, the design variable should be selected among any certain values or corresponds to a discrete design variable that needs to handle the size of a pre-formatted part. Various algorithms have been developed for discrete design. As recently reported, the sequential algorithm with orthogonal arrays(SOA), which is a local minimum search algorithm in discrete space, has excellent local minimum search ability. It reduces the number of function evaluation using orthogonal arrays. However it only finds a local minimum and the final solution depends on the initial value. In this research, the genetic algorithm, which defines an initial population with the potential solution in a global space, is adopted in SOA. The new algorithm, sequential algorithm with orthogonal arrays and genetic algorithm(SOAGA), can find a global solution with the properties of genetic algorithm and the solution is found rapidly with the characteristics of SOA.

In spite of IT performance can be achieved through the interaction of IT and organization, many previous study has been treated the introduction of the information system itself as a final outcome. But if it doesn't clear about understanding on IT performance, performance management is difficult and also it is impossible to produce the intended outcomes. This study investigates the improvement of the business performance of SMEs through IT investment, whether the investment process on business performance. Analytical methods that were used in previous studies were maintained and new model IO(Information Orientation) analysis was applied. Therefore, this study is meaningful to establish a new methodology, that is not attempted until now, for evaluating the performance of IT investment, and analysis relationship between IT investment and business performance.

Wire drawing process of the high carbon steel with a high speed is usually conducted at room temperature using a number of passes or reductions through consequently located dies. In the multi-pass drawing process, temperature rise in each pass affects the mechanical properties of the final product such as bending, torsion, and tensile property, etc. This temperature rise during the deformation promotes the occurrence of delamination, and deteriorates the torsion property and durability of wire. This study investigates the occurrence of delamination in the wire through the torsion test and the evaluation of wire temperature. The excessive wire temperature leads to the occurrence of the delamination. Based on the calculation of the wire temperature, a new pass schedule, which can prevent the delamination due to the excessive wire temperature rise, is designed through the isothermal pass schedule.

Many varieties of space-occupying lesions can occur in the mediastinum. During the twenty-three-year period 1966-1988, we had experienced the 151 cases of primary mediastinal tumors and cysts at the Thoracic k Cardiovascular Dept., CUMC. The most common histologic types were thymomas and germ cell tumors, followed by neurogenic tumors and lymphomas. Most non-neoplastic lesions were granulomatous lesions and cysts. The mediastinal tumors were often asymptomatic, the malignant tumors in 35.4%, the benign tumors and cysts in 72.8% of the cases. The most common symptom was pain, which occurred in one-fourth of the patients. The most useful diagnostic method was X-ray examination of the chest. However, a final diagnosis could usually be made only at operation. Nine malignant tumors[30.0%] were excised radically, 17[56.7%] palliatively and 4[13.3%] were only biopsied. Almost all benign tumors except tuberculous lymphadenitis were radically excised. Fourteen patients received postoperative radiation therapy and 17 received chemotherapy. The postoperative complications were developed in 15[11.7%] and hospital mortality was 0.8%.

The acoustical properties of multi-layered treatments of materials used in applications, such as automotive liners, generally cannot be directly measured by a one-time test in a standing wave duct. Therefore, we have to consider predicting them by the four-pole transfer matrix method. This method requires performing TCM or TLM for measuring the transfer matrix of each layer and calculating the total transfer matrix of the whole multi-layered material. The final predicted absorption ratios and transmission losses of the multi-layered treatments strongly depend on the measured transfer matrix of each layer. All these functions have been included in a new designed acoustical software.

This study investigates the influence of the innovativeness of consumers on extended products in brand extensions. 300 surveys were distributed and 283 were used in the final analysis. The results of this study show that consumers evaluate similar product category (i.e., sportswear) better than a dissimilar category (i.e., cosmetics) in brand extension. In addition, innovative consumers evaluated extended product better regardless of similarity with the original brand. The results showed that consumers with higher level of innovativeness were less likely to evaluate differently between a similar product and dissimilar product categories in apparel brand extension.
