This study was performed to analyze collection parameters for food wastes, which were used to estimate man power and vehicles required to collect those. For this purpose, collection activities were separated into unit operations, such as a pickup, a haul and at-site, and design data that can be used generally were developed by survey and interpretation. In case of a detached dwelling area, the pickup time to collect 1ton of food wastes(Phcs) was $3.3man{\cdot}hour$ and haul time was 22.4km/hour. At-site time of a collection vehicle to load 2.5ton of food wastes was 5minutes and that time was varied according to the loading quantity of vehicles. The estimation of collection time(Thcs), required to move 2.5ton of food wastes from a pickup location to a treatment facility in the same condition for vehicles and man power, showed that Thcs for an apartment area was 3.03hours and for a detached dwelling area was three times as much as that of for the apartment area. More data should be required to evaluate both typical variables associated with collection activities and the variables related to particular district types.

The primary contributors to the total occupational radiation exposure in operating nuclear power plants are operation and maintenance activities doting refueling outages. The Advanced Power Reactor 1400 (APR1400) includes a number of design improvements and plans to utilize advanced maintenance methods and robotics to minimize the annual collective dose. The major radiation exposure reduction features implemented in APR1400 are a permanent refueling pool seal, quick opening transfer tube blind flange, improved hydrogen peroxide injection at shutdown, improved permanent steam generator work platforms, and more effective temporary shielding. The estimated average annual occupational radiation exposure for APR1400 based on the reference plant experience and an engineering judgment is determined to be in the order of 0.4 man-Sv, which is well within the design goal of 1 man-Sv. The basis of this average annual occupational radiation exposure estimation is an eighteen (18) month fuel cycle with maintenance performed to steam generators and reactor coolant pumps during refueling outage. The outage duration is assumed to be 28 days. The outage work is to be performed on a 24 hour per day basis, seven (7) days a week with overlapping twelve (12) hour work shifts. The occupational radiation exposure for APR1400 is also determined by an alternate method which consists of estimating radiation exposures expected for the major activities during the refueling outage. The major outage activities that cause the majority of the total radiation exposure during refueling outage such as fuel handling, reactor coolant pump maintenance, steam generator inspection and maintenance, reactor vessel head area maintenance, decontamination, and ICI & instrumentation maintenance activities are evaluated at a task level. The calculated value using this method is in close agreement with the value of 0.4 man-Sv, that has been determined based on the experience aid engineering judgement. Therefore, with the As Low As Reasonably Achievable (ALARA) advanced design features incorporated in the design, APR1400 design is to meet its design goal with sufficient margin, that is, more than a factor of two (2), if operated on art eighteen (18) month fuel cycle.

Study 1 composed of three experiments examined differences in person perception between computer-mediated (or CMC) and face-to-face (or FTF) communications. In Experiment 1, each of 17 groups of 4-5 discussed a donation entrance system through CMC and a week later a college-based university system through FTF communication mode for half an hour. Then members of a given group rated each other along with self-ratings on five personality traits. Results indicated that in FTF than CMC condition, ratings of others were more positive and also self-peer agreement and meta-accuracy were larger in spite of no large difference in inter-judge agreement between two communication modes. In Experiment 2, 17 groups of 4 in each of the CMC and FTF condition discussed a college-based university system for an hour. Then group members rated each other on another five trait dimensions. Although ratings of others were more positive in FTF than CMC condition, there no systematic differences in two types of agreement and meta-accuracy between the two communication modes. In Experiment 3, 17 groups of 4 in each of the CMC and FTF condition discussed a donation entrance system for an hour and then group members rated each other on five trait dimensions different from those used in Experiment 1 and 2. The findings replicated Experiment 1. Study 2 examined gender differences in person perception in CMC. Fifteen dyads for each of the man-man, man-woman, and man-woman conditions communicated for an half hour in CMC and then rated each other along with self ratings on 25 personality trait dimensions. Results indicated that participants rated their partners more negatively for extorversion, agreeableness and culture factors, which was due mainly to woman's negative evaluations for their male partners. Also, self-peer agreement was the largest in the man-man communication condition. These findings were discussed in relation to differences between CMC and FTF communication modes.

Elapid snakes have neurotoxic venom which causes diverse neuroparalytic manifestations, including fatal respiratory failure. In South Korea, since elapid snakebites are very rare, the cobra antivenom, which is effective against neurotoxicity, was only introduced recently. Most physicians in South Korea have little experience in the treatment of patients who have been bitten by elapid snakes. A 19-year-old man was brought to the emergency department with sudden diplopia, 1 hour after a snakebite on the left 2nd finger. The patient presented with drowsiness and complained of mild dizziness and binocular diplopia. After 1 hour, he had sudden onset of dyspnea and dysphagia and appeared to be agitated. He was immediately intubated and received mechanical ventilation as he was unable to breathe on his own. A total of 2.5 mg of neostigmine diluted with normal saline was slowly infused, and 1 vial of cobra antivenom was infused for an hour, 5 times every 2 hours, for a total of 5 vials. He slowly recovered self-breathing; on the 3rd day of hospitalization, he showed tolerable breathing and was extubated. He was discharged without any neurological deficits or other complications.

An oscillating potato digger for power tillers was designed and constructed to evaluate the effects of vibration on potato digging. Changing the levels of amplitude, frequency, and travel speed, 16 combinations of such parameters were tested in the potato field. The measured variables were harvesting loss and damage, and storing loss of the mechanically harvested potatoes. It was observed that the operation of the digger blade was good with amplitude of 12 mm, frequency of 9.67 Hz, and travel speed of 0.87 km/hr. Under these conditions the harvesting loss and damage were 3.18 % and 0.67 % that are very lower than those of 6.83 % and 9.83 % of traditional harvesting method. The operating efficiency of the experimental digger under optimum operating conditions was about 552 $m^2$ per hour which was about 20 times higher than 27.2 $m^2$ per man per hour of traditional harvest.

Effects of pulse-plating on the wear and corrosion resistance of chrome-carbon layers were studied. The plating were carried out at $06A/\textrm{cm}^2$ in modified Sargent bath containing formic acid at $53^{\circ}C$. The chrome layer were super-saturated with carbon up to 2.0wt. %, which precipitated as chrome carbide such as $Cr_{23}C_6$ after vacuum aging above $200^{\circ}C$ for 1 hour. This resulted in improvement of hardness and wear resistance of the chrome layer. Considering the reduction of corrosion resistance due to the thermal effect, optimum vacuum aging condition of the chrome layer in this study was I-hour at $200^{\circ}C$.

The artificial intelligence software market is expected to grow sixfold from 2020 to 2025. However, the software development process is not standardized and there is no standard for calculating the cost. Accordingly, each AI software development company calculates the input man-hours according to their respective development procedures and presents this as the basis for the development cost. In this study, the development stage of "artificial intelligence-based software" that learns with a large amount of data and derives and applies an algorithm was defined, and the required labor was collected by conducting a survey on the number of man-hours required for each development stage targeting developers. Correlation analysis and regression analysis were performed between the collected man-hours for each development stage, and a model for predicting the man-hours for each development stage was derived. As a result of testing the model, it showed an accuracy of 92% compared to the collected airborne effort. The man-hour prediction model proposed in this study is expected to be a tool that can be used simply for estimating man-hours and costs.
