Coating immobilization is the process by which the wet coating applied to paper or paperboard reaches the final form. A coating immobilization point is defined as the solids content reached during drying where no further redistribution of coating materials occurs. Good control of coating immobilization is important in producing coated paper and paperboard with consistent high quality. This paper discusses the technical concepts of how coatings immobilize, and describes the importance of good immobilization control on coating holdout and coating structure. The use of soy protein polymers to modify the coating immobilization point is discussed. Soy proteins, because of their interaction with coating pigments, make a significant contribution to the immobilization characteristics of coastings. This technology gives the formulator options for changing the immobilization point to improve the performance of the coating. The importance of immobilization on casting uniformity, microporosity and sheet qualities is discussed, including binder migration, mottle, gluing, and print quality.

Tele-Gesture is a tangible user interface(TUI) device that allows a user to physically point to a 3D object in real life and have their gestures play back by a robotic finger that can point to the same object, either at the same time, or at another point in time. To understand the extent of the gestures as new way of digital collaborative communication, collaboration situation and types were experimented as TUI implementations. The design prototype reveals that there is a rich non-verbal component of communication in the form of gesture-clusters and body movements that happen in an digital communication. This result of analysis can contribute to compile relevant contributions to the fields of communication, human behavior, and interaction with high technology through an interpretive social experience.

The effects of strain rate and preferential diffusion of $H_2$ on flame extinction are numerically studied in interacting premixed syngas-air flames with fuel compositions of 50% $H_2$ + 50% CO and 30% $H_2$ + 70% CO. Flame stability diagrams mapping lower and upper limit fuel concentrations at flame extinction as a function of strain rate are examined. Increasing strain rate reduces the boundaries of both flammable lean and rich fuel concentrations and produces a flammable island and subsequently even a point, implying that there exists a limit strain rate over which interacting flame cannot be sustained anymore. Even if effective Lewis numbers are slightly larger than unity on extinction boundaries, the shape of the lean extinction boundary is slanted even at low strain rate, i.e. $a_g=30s^{-1}$ and is more slanted in further increase of strain rate, implying that flame interaction on lean extinction boundary is strong and thus hydrogen (as a deficient reactant) Lewis number much less than unity plays an important role of flame interaction. It is also shown that effects of preferential diffusion of $H_2$ cause flame interaction to be stronger on lean extinction boundaries and weaker on rich extinction boundaries. Detailed analyses are made through the comparison between flame structures with and without the restriction of the diffusivities of $H_2$ and H in symmetric and asymmetric fuel compositions. The reduction of flammable fuel compositions in increase of strain rate suggests that the mechanism of flame extinction is significant conductive heat loss from the stronger flame to ambience.

There has been a growing need for interaction between human operator and a remote system to perform a complex task in an unpredictable environment and to operate an important work at a remote distance. The interaction becomes an important parameter in the teleautonomous operation because it permits the operator to control the system at remote distance. As the environmental uncertainties to be applied are getting increased, so is the difference between the plan of the operator and the execution of the system increased. Since the operator may be difficult to know the latest information from frequently changing environment due to time-varying delays, remote system may be hard to control in accordance with the operators command. Interactive Teleautonomous Control System (ITCS) is an approach based on interactions at these environments. The ITCS can be regarded as a control system using the transmitted a system's intnetion. The interactive teleautonomous control does not mean the interaction from operators point of view only considering feedback environmental information and forward simulation but an interaction between the operator and the system that transmits or receives intentions. The proposed ITCS is based on the intention communication that transmits their intentions to each other. The ITCS can correctly control the system in accordance with the operator's intention. Using the intention communication, a system intention is helpful to the operator. In the interactive teleautonomous control, the intention communication has to be provided by the interaction between the operator and the system.

In this paper, we propose a wearable augmented reality system using gaze interaction. Gaze interaction has been considered to be the potential of easy, natural and fast way of interaction and becomes a suitable way in optical see-through HMD based wearable AR. Our system recognizes user's gaze point, half blink motion and displays the information of object seen by user to HMD. Half blink selection technique avoids the Midas touch problem and represents user's intention correctly. We've developed a AR annotation system and estimated the usability of gaze interaction. The accuracy and robustness of our technique is verified on the experimental results.

Clopidogrel is used to reduce the risk of cardiovascular events in patients with atherosclerosis documented by recent ischemic stroke, recent myocardial infarction (MI), or established peripheral arterial disease (secondary prevention). Clopidogrel is metabolized by CYP3A4, and the active metabolites inhibit platelet aggregation. The purpose of this study was to assess clopidogrel only versus clopidogrel + others (aspirin, CYP3A4 inhibitor, and CYPBA4 inducer) in terms of cardiovasculalr events and bleeding complications. We reviewed the charts of patients who visited between August 1, 2002 and August 31, 2003, retrospectively. Total 72 patients were included and they consisted of 5 groups; clopidogrel group (n=36), clopidogrel + aspirin group (n=11), clopidogrel + CYP3A4 inhibitor group (n=15), clopidogrel + aspirin + CYP3A4 inhibitor group (n=6), clopidorel + CYP3A4 inducer group (n=4). The primary endpoints at 6 months, 12 months were the composite of cardiovascular (CV) events. The secondary end-point was the incidence of bleeding events at 6months, and 12months. At 12months, the primary endpoint was not significantly different among the five groups (p=0.056). In comparison of two groups as clopidogrel only versus clopidogrel + others (aspirin, CYP3A4 inhibitor and CYP3A4 inducer), the primary endpoint was significantly different (p=0.02). The CV events were increased in the clopidogrel + others group. The secondary end point was not significantly different among the five groups (p=0.52). However, time to bleeding events was 230.8 in the clopidogrel group and 74.7 in the clopidogrel + others group (p = 0.046). In conclusion, clopidogrel interaction with aspirin, CYP3A4 inhibitor, and CYP3A4 inducer affected cardiovascular events and bleeding events. Drug interaction of clopidogrel with concurrent medications should be considered cautiously.

The objective of this study is to optimize the Metal Injection Molding(MIM) process with design of experiments(DOE) and numerical analysis. To derive the optimal process condition, experiment or numerical analysis was performed under various process conditions. To analyze the interaction among influential factors contributing to the temperature at flow front and response surface in MIM, both central point and axial point were added to the full factorial design with 2 levels and 5 factors and then their impacts on response variable in 43 experimental conditions were analyzed and the significance was evaluated. As a result, sprue, runner, and gate were completely filled in about 0.247 seconds after injection, the front part of the green body was filled in about 0.3344 seconds, the green body except gate, etc changed to almost solid state in about 3.29 seconds, the Packinging pressure was completed in about 6.29 seconds, and the green body inside and outside and sprue, etc became solid in 13.2 seconds. The impact of individual or reciprocal action of factors on the temperature at flow front was analyzed through regular probability, test statistics, main effect, and interaction effect. As a result, of a total of 31 combinations of factors, 9 unit factors and reciprocal actions were significant, and the screening was also possible. A proper regression equation was drawn with regression analysis and response surface design on the response variable of temperature at flow front, and the applicability could be verified.

The influence of vertical eddy viscosity to the nonlinear interaction of tidal current and wind-induced current is examined using a point model. A zero-equation turbulence model is derived by simplifying the q$^2$-q$^2$1 turbulence model under the assumption that the generation of turbulence kinetic energy is balanced with its dissipation and is further modified to include the depth of frictional influence properly The zero-equation turbulence model is derived and the possibility of resonance in the presence of Coriolis effect is suggested. The amplitudes of tidal currents remain the same regardless of the applied wind stress, but the over-tide component is generated due to the nonlinear interaction of tidal current and wind-induced current. Significant changes in the vertical profile of wind-induced currents can occur according to tide-induced background turbulence. The turbulence model can give rise to misleading results when applied to the wind-driven circulation in the tide-dominated sea such as Yellow Sea unless the tide-induced background turbulence is adequately included in the parameterization of vertical eddy viscosity.

Purposes: The purpose of this study was to analyze the relationship between empowerment, job satisfaction and organizational commitment of the general hospital administrative staff working for customer interaction department. Methodology: For this purpose, this study sampled 260 administrative staff working for the general hospitals in Seoul and Gyeonggi-do. A total of 260 questionnaires were distributed to them, and 229 ones responded to the survey, which had been conducted from Mar. 9, through Mar. 30, 2018. 211 responses were used for the final analysis. The data collected were processed using the SPSS 18.0K for descriptive statistics, T-test, ANOVA and regression analysis. Findings: The results of this study can be summed up as follows. The empowerment of the subjects scored 3.73 on average on the 5-point scale. To be specific, the sub-factor 'meaning' scored the highest or 4.01, while the sub-factor 'impact' was lowest. Subjects' job satisfaction scored 3.37 and their organizational commitment scored 3.54 both on the 5-point scales. Practical Implications: Meaning and self determination of empowerment positively related to subjects' job satisfaction and organizational commitment, and particularly, meaning of empowerment was more strongly related. Hence, it is required of the general hospitals to operate a customized competence build-up program and educational courses on a continual basis. Besides, it would also be important to create a working environment wherein the administrative staff can demonstrate their deliberation, autonomy and independent services.
