2-(1,3,3-Trimethyl-6-azabicyclo [3,2,1]-oct-6-yl)-4,5-dihydro-1,3-oxazoline (TAO) was polymerized at several conditions to clarify the influence of initiators, alkyl halide ($PhCH_2Br$, $PhCH_2Cl$, MeI) and sulfonate (MeOTf). The reactions were conducted at $100^{\circ}C$ for 24 h. The resultant polymer forms several kinds of structures with different combination of initiators. The sole MeOTf initiator caused chain transfer reaction to form the one-order structure for which the resultant polymer exclusively formed pendant structure, while alkyl halide and MeOTf formed two kinds of structures, pendant and main chain, which is caused by partly-proceeded double isomerization polymerization by highly reactive nucleophilic counter anion of halogen. Merrifield polymer was also utilized as an intiator and copolymerized with TAO, which produced a graft structure.

This study was conducted using social network analysis, variance analysis, and regression analysis to investigate the effects of cooperation between innovators on technical performance. Based on data of joint applicants filed with the Korean Intellectual Property Office from 2009 to 2012, we derive network structural variables and characteristic variables, and identify network characteristics that affect the overall network structural type, roles for each subject of innovation, and innovation performance. The findings are as follows: ⅰ) The network of this study is a distributed, small-world network within which relatively small groups of innovators are distributed. ⅱ) Universities were found to play the most important role in cooperation, but diversity of cooperating partners exhibited similar effects. ⅲ) It was shown that access to quick and accurate knowledge from familiar partners exhibits a more positive influence on generating innovative performance than unfamiliar knowledge from a variety of cooperating partners in non-familiar fields.

The objective of this work is to design Surface Antenna Structure (SAS) and investigate fatigue behavior of SAS that is asymmetric sandwich structure. This term, SAS, indicates that structural surface becomes antenna. Constituent materials are selected considering electrical properties, dielectric constant and tangent loss as well as mechanical properties. For the antenna performance, SSSFIP elements inserted into structural layers were designed fur satellite communication at a resonant frequency of 12.5 GHz and final demonstration article was $16{\;}{\tiems}{\;}8$ array antenna. From electrical measurements, it was shown that antenna performances were in good agreement with design requirements. In cyclic 4-point bending, flexure behavior was investigated by static and fatigue test. Fatigue life curve of SAS was obtained. The fatigue load was determined experimentally at a 0.75 (1.875kN) load level, Experimental results were compared with single load level fatigue life prediction equations (SFLPE) and in good agreement with SFLPE. SAS concept is the first serious attempt at integration fur both antenna and composite engineers and promises innovative future communication technology.

The purpose of this study was to examine the development trend of smart fiber by textile companies in Daegu/North Gyeongsang Province. This examination includes the development fields of smart fiber, investment size, information sources and the use degree of those, research-related infrastructure, relationship between companies' characteristics and their interests in smart fiber. Research data were collected by a survey. The definition and classification(4 areas and 12 development products) of smart fiber followed ones of Smart Fiber Technology Roadmap by the Ministry of Commerce, Industry and Energy. Data were analyzed using SPSS 11.0 program for frequency, means, t-test, and $X^2$-test. Among respondents, the numbers of dying and finish companies and export traders were the highest. It revealed that 19.6% of companies were developing smart fibers. Within 12 development products, vapor permeable/waterproof fiber showed to be most being developed, while medical fiber for human has not been developed and wasn't made an investment plan for developing. It was discovered that the biggest problem of smart fiber development was the lack of experts and the best outcome of smart fiber development was preoccupation of future market. It showed that companies got information from textile fairs but didn't often use information sources. The companies appeared to have a weak intention about research of smart fiber. The more important a company considered functionality of textile products and the more innovative and stabler the company was, the higher interest in smart fiber companies had. It was concluded that textile companies in Daegu/North Gyeongsang Province were aware of the importance of smart fiber development but they were not strongly interested in it and not enthusiastic in taking action on it.

The ring-opening isomerization polymerization behavior of 2,5,6,7-tetrahydro-3H-imidazo[2,1-b] [1,3] oxazine(TII) has been studied under various conditions. The present study aimed at improving the low polymerizability of the above monomer (six-membered ring) up to a level comparable to that of 2,5,6-tetrahydroimidazo[2,1-b] [l,3] oxazole(TIO) (five-membered ring). The optimum result could be observed when methyl trifluoromethanesulfonate(MeOTf) and nitrobenzene were used as an initiator and a solvent in the polymerization at $60^{\circ}C$ for 24 h. Polymers were confirmed by$^1H$ NMR과$^{13}C$ NMR, and m measurements. The molecular weight obtained by gel permeation chromatography (GPC) corresponded to the molecular weight theoretically calculated from the feed ratio. The melting temperature ($T_m$) of TII was conspicuously different from that of TIO, because of the difference in the alkyl group.

The innovation activity is an important factor for sustained growth in nations and firms. Particularly, the problem of appropriation of results of the innovative activity is very important for innovators since it enables them to enjoy the profits generated by their innovations. This study is intended to empirically analyse relative preference of patent and secrecy that is affected by characteristics of innovators and results of innovation using data from '2005: The Korean Innovation Survey' and Ordered Logit method. As a result of this study, the preference for a specific mechanism is clearly revealed in product innovation rather than process innovation. Also, in most research, questions results of analysis are equal to the previous studies and the nature of appropriation methods. However, the result of a research question based on sources of information is very different from previous researches. This study utilized more recent data than previous studies. This result reflects that existing patterns have been changed during recent period.
