Automation of wood processing is strongly required to improve the productivity and quality of wood products in wood industry which is one of the most labor-intensive industries. Classification of surface defects on wood boards such as knots is one of the important steps towards a completely automated wood processing system. In this study the possibility of detection of knots by image processing technique was investigated. Algorithm for the automatic determination of threshold value was developed to enhance the flexibility of image processing system. Two different approaches, grid method and tile method, were developed to enhance the speed in extracting features from images. Grid method showed slightly higher processing speed and tile method proved much more stable in determining threshold values. Tile size of $5{\times}5$ pixels or $6{\times}6$ pixels was found to be proper to get stable results with resonable processing time.

A displacement-based finite element method Is presented for the geometrically nonlinear analysis of eccentrically stiffened plates. A nonlinear degenerated shell element and a nonlinear degenerated eccentric isoparametric beam (isobeam) element are formulated on the basis of Total Agrangian and Updated Lagrangian descriptions. In the formulation of the isobeam element, some additional local decrees of freedom are implementd to describe the stiffener's local plate buckling modes. Therefore this element can be effectively employed to model the eccentric stiffener with fewer D.O.F's than the case of a degenerated shell element. Some detailed buckling and nonlinear analyses of an eccentrically stiffened plate are performed to estimate the critical buckling loads and the post buckling behaviors including the local plate buckling of the stiffeners discretized with the degenerated shell elements and the isobeam elements. The critical buckling loads are found to be higher than the analytical plate buckling load but lower than Euler buckling load of the corresponding column, i.e, buckling strength requirements of the Classification Societies for the stiffened plates.

E-business curriculum needs to be developed reflecting requirements of the industry which involve a close relation with a job performed in the field, and a professional knowledge and an expert skill. In this paper, we present a method based on a market-oriented approach for developing an I-business curriculum. For the purpose, we analyze the opinion data resulting from the surveyed opinions of respondents working for I-business companies and evaluate the importance of each course being involved in the curriculum with respect to the job classification (e.g., Web planner, Web master, Web programmer, Web marketer, Web designer, Web PD), and then, complete a flow diagram considering precedence and relative difficulty among the selected courses. The E-business curriculum developed by the proposed method is useful to provide guidelines for determining courses required toward a desired job and for making a partial amendment of the curriculum.

컨텐츠 산업은 전통적인 미디어 기업들이 생각하는 제작물 위주의 산업에서 디지털 컨텐츠를 중심으로 하는 통합 서비스산업으로의 전환기를 맞이하고 있으며 최근에는 그에 대한 관심이 더욱 증대하고 있다. 산업 전반적인 요소들이 빠르게 변화하고 있는 정보통신서비스 산업에서의 컨텐츠 산업은 타 산업에서 생산에 해당하는 역할을 맡고 있다. 그리고 타 산업에서의 제품 분류에 해당하는 컨텐츠의 분류가 있지만 현재의 컨텐츠 분류 체계는 실제 제작되는 컨텐츠 자체의 내용이나 사업의 수익모델 등을 분류의 기준으로 제시하고 있다. 하지만 그러한 분류는 정보통신서비스 간업 전체의 흐름에 대한 관점과 산업내 사업자간의 상호작용을 고려하지 알고 있기에 실제 산업에 참여하고 있는 사업자에게 필요한 다양한 기준의 분류를 제시 못 하고 있다. 본 연구에서는 컨텐츠 산업에 참여하는 사업자 사이의 핵심 프로세스를 선정하고. 이를 중심으로 하여 프로세스 관점으로 컨텐츠 산업의 사업자 분류를 통해 사업자간에 일어나는 상호 필요한 프로세스에서의 데이터, 문서 등을 활용에 대한 방안을 제시하고자 한다.

The Purpose of this study is to examine the present marine science education programs in Korea and understand how they are organized and how well they are being used. Eventually, being a foothold research prior to the construction of an inclusive marine science education portal site for elementary, middle, and high school students is the objective of this study. Through this study, we can expect three positive effects. First, through classification of marine science education programs, it can be used when dividing the contents and writing textbooks for elementary school students. Second, through the construction of portal site, we can expect to correct the recognition and understanding of marine and it will contribute to the future industry development. Third, we can offer the correct materials for teaching and learning and through learning, understanding on marine will get better.

The characteristics of flow in dividing regions are precise, therefore their classification is very important not only in industry but also in hydrodynamics. By now, many studies of flow in dividing regions have been peformed, but flow characteristics that use visualization In dividing regions have not been studied. The present study of the PIV and the CFD exhibit average velocity distributions, kinetic energy distributions and total pressure distributions etc of the total flow field due to the development of the accurate visualization optical laser and of optical equipment. Also, PIV is accurate with the flows characteristics of the dividing region as continuous analysis is done using input equipment. The study analyzes velocity vector field, turbulence kinetic energy, turbulence viscosity of dividing regions with flow for visualization of the PIV and the CFD measurement in a dividing rectangular ducts.

This study is to prepare a reasonable basis for the improvement of the electrical safety management regulation. The standards in domestic and foreign countries for the application of new and renewable energy facilities and other devices are analyzed. Other regulations excluding the electrical safety fields and wide surveys are also carried out. Consequently, it is asked that the classification between normal and self electrical facilities should be clear and deregulation for small businesses has to be followed. This study is showed that standards investigates of receiving equipment below 600V above 75kW, eletrical safety manager employment of manufacturing industry and Mid-night electric power. And, it is showed that consignment permission and Consignment inspection periodic relaxation about wind development equipment below 1,000kW, consignment of Technical Development equipment for new and renewable energy below 250kW.

With domestic construction projects becoming bigger, more specialized and more advanced, the construction industry is striving to improve quality and quantity, and is diversifying functions and shapes. Nevertheless, the process of a construction project causes problems when we estimate construction price, because the cost breakdown structures are different in each step. The primary aim of this study was to estimate building life cycle cost using the Delphi method. The cost breakdown structure for life cycle cost was classified into planning, design, construction, maintenance and waste disposal, and each detailed classification was determined by estimating life cycle cost. Moreover, the developed cost breakdown structure is verified by consulting with experts to secure objectivity and validity.

According to the improvement of IT technology, an enhanced efficiency of management system in the construction industry is expected since a quotation system with BIM (Building Information Modeling) technique effectively estimates construction materials. For an enhanced efficiency of management system, related guidelines, standards, and manuals based on BIM are required, but the lack of this information causes difficulty to utilize in practice. In the paper, the satisfaction analysis was performed in order to promote the completeness of construction estimating manager that can be presented criteria and details of BIM-based quantity-takeoff, classification criteria.

There is no universally agreed classification of human error, nor is there one in prospect. Thus, a taxonomy is usually made for a specific purpose. To seek the types of human errors in the environment of man-machine interface under the railway industry, we develop a cognitive information processing model incorporating the human's mental states. Using the model, this study investigates the types of human errors about the railway workers. Thus, a survey is conducted for railway safety personnel-locomotive engineers, station employees, and train commanders- in Korean railway company. Through the survey that is designed to investigate four types of human errors from the Questionnaires composed of thirty Questions, we analyze the types of human errors related to railway safety according to affiliated offices, operation shifts, age, and working years. Finally, from the insights of the results some guidelines for the railway safety management are presented.
