A new seismic energy dissipation shear wall structure is proposed in this paper. The new shear wall is one with purposely built-in vertical slits within the wall panel, and various seismic energy dissipation devices are installed in the vertical slits so that the dynamic characteristics of the structure (for instance, lateral stiffness, ductility and fundamental period) can be controlled. In order to verify this concept, shaking table tests of two 10-story shear wall models were carried out, and the seismic behavior of the two models are studied by analyzing the test data and computing the nonlinear seismic response of the models.

코로나기간 동안 대면 영업을 위주로 운영하는 소상공인과 자영업자들은 경제적으로 큰 손실을 경험했다. 특히, 전통시장에 입점한 업체들의 경우, 온라인판매시스템으로의 전환이 비교적 쉽지 않은 경우가 많아 상대적으로 피해가 더욱 심한 것으로 나타나고 있다. 본 연구는 서울시를 대상으로 전통시장 상권매출 자료를 활용해 코로나의 영향을 실증적으로 분석하고자 하였다. 코로나의 영향을 보다 정확하게 추정하기 위해 패널고정효과 모형을 활용하였으며, 전통시장의 규모, 전통시장에 입점한 업체들의 유형에 따라 영향 정도를 세밀하게 분석하였다. 연구의 결과, 예상과는 다르게 코로나 이전과 비교해서 코로나기간 동안 전통시장의 상권매출 변동은 나타나지 않은 것으로 분석되었다. 하지만, 코로나의 영향력은 전통시장 안에서 업종별로 차이를 보였는데, 코로나로 인해 가장 큰 피해를 입은 업종은 서비스업인 것으로 나타났고, 그다음으로 소매업, 음식점 순으로 나타났다. 또한, 전통시장 규모에 따라서도 코로나로 인한 영향이 다르게 나타났다. 전통시장의 경우, 대형마트에 비해 외부변화나 시대흐름에 민감하지 못하기 때문에 사람들의 소비패턴이나 행동패턴이 변하면 큰 피해가 따를 수 있다. 전통시장 활성화 전략을 세울 때, 전통시장이라는 공간에 대해서 동일한 인센티브나 전략적인 방안을 마련하기보다는 전통시장 안에서 업종별, 유형별로 세밀한 방안을 세울 필요가 있다.

Purpose - This paper aims to study the competition that occurs in the Islamic Banking industry and to analyze the variables that affect the total revenue of Islamic Banking in Indonesia. Research Design, Data and Methodology - This study observed 10Islamic banks for the period 2010-2013. The annual data are taken from Direktori Perbankan Indonesia, published by Bank Indonesia, and annual report of the observed banks. In analyzing data, Panzar Rosse Approach was applied to analyze the type of Islamic Bank Market and Panel Regression Model for the estimated co-efficients has been used in the Panzar Rosse Approach. Results - Estimation model shows that all the banking cost elements such as the price of capital, unit price of labor, and unit prices of funds have significant positive correlation to Revenue as a dependent variable. The estimated value of H-statistic for the period 2010-2013 is 0.69. It can be interpreted that Islamic banking market in Indonesia shows monopolistic competition. Price of capital and funds has statistically significant effect on Bank's Revenue. Conclusions - The study revealed that the Islamic banking market competition in Indonesia is monopolistic and the major contribution to the H-statistic comes from mainly price of funds.

A prerequisite of a sound financial system is effective channeling of financial resources to efficient users; hence maximizing economic and societal welfare. To that end, the prevalence of bad loans in banks in emerging economies is a major policy concern. In an attempt to add to the growing body of literature explaining the interrelationship between macroeconomic and firm-specific factors, and non-performing loans (NPL), this paper examines data from 24 scheduled commercial banks in Bangladesh from 2008 to 2019. Macroeconomic factors as well as firm-specific factors related to profitability, capital strength, and efficiency are considered. Panel data regression analysis is performed to estimate pooled OLS, fixed effects, and random effects models. Following the necessary testing, it was found that the fixed effects model with robust standard error is appropriate. Results show that return on assets and inflation have a negative influence on NPL, but GDP growth has a favorable impact. The paper concludes by asserting that the evidence supports similar findings from studies both in Bangladesh and elsewhere and it is noted that a combination of these macroeconomic and firm-specific factors explains only a small portion of the total variation in NPL.

Purpose: This study aims to determine the effect of economic agents, such as the amount of government expenditure on the environment, households, manufacturing industry, and shipping activities; on environmental degradation in Indonesia. Research design, data, and methodology: This study is conducted with 264 observations from panel data of 33 provinces during 2010-2017. Environmental degradation is measured by using the environmental quality index collected from Indonesian Ministry of Forestry and Indonesian Central Bureau of Statistics. Three testing models are used to test the panel data, namely Common Effect Model (CEM), Fixed Effect Model (FEM), and Random Effect Model (REM). Results: The research findings show that the amount of government expenditure on the environment, households, and shipping activities have a negative and significant effects on environmental degradation, while the number of manufacturing industry has positive and significant effect on environmental degradation. Unlike the previous studies, the result also shows that government expenditure on environmental has a positive and significant effect on environmental quality index. Conclusion: It can be concluded that even though Indonesian government spent a low budget on environment, their environmental regulation has succeeded both in reducing environmental degradation and increasing the environmental quality as indicated by Indonesian environmental quality index.

Purpose: The aim of this study was to examine the correlation between school-life adjustment and suicidal ideation in adolescents by applying the latent growth curve models to the longitudinal data. Methods: This study analyzed three waves of data from the Korean Children & Youth Panel Survey (2014~2016). A total of 1,534 students were included in the analysis. In the application of the latent growth curve models to the longitudinal survey data, we analyzed the initial status and growth changes for each wave, identified individual differences in the general characteristics, and examined the direct relationship between the two latent constructs. Results: The analysis revealed that variations in the initial status and rate of school-life adjustment were significant with respect to parents' education level, household income and academic satisfaction. Variations in the initial status and growth rate of suicidal ideation were significantly associated with household income and family structure. The relationship between school-life adjustment and suicidal ideation showed a negative correlation in which the starting value of the former increased and that of the latter decreased and vice versa. Conclusion: The results confirmed that school-life adjustment and suicidal ideation varied according to students' general characteristics. In addition, school-life adjustment was negatively correlated with suicidal ideation, thereby highlighting students' ability to adjust as an important factor influencing their suicidal thinking.

UTC(Unglazed Transpired Collector) system has recently emerged as a new solar air heating technology. It is relatively inexpensive because it has not a glazed material. And it demonstrates efficient particularly for the applications in which larger wall area facilities with a high outdoor air requirement. Mathematical algorithm for UTC thermal modeling has been understood for further improvement of the system. EES and TRNSYS model of actual solar wall panel could be developed for computer simulations under other conditions. Computer models could be validated with the measured data from fixed outdoor test cell in KIER(Korea Institute of Energy Research). Major design parameters could be identified such as panel configuration and absorptivity and emissivity values for UTC design.

본고는 한국노동패널조사 1~10차년도 자료를 이용하여 정규직과 비정규직의 임금격차를 분석한다. 근로자 개인의 관찰되지 않은 이질성을 통제한 고정효과모형(fixed effect model)의 추정 결과에 의하면 정규직과 비정규직의 임금격차는 단순 횡단면 분석에서 나타난 임금격차의 약 50% 수준이다. 노동조합이 임금격차를 축소하거나 비정규직의 임금수준을 향상시킨다는 실증적 증거는 발견되지 않으며, 기업규모는 고용형태보다 임금수준에 더 큰 영향을 미치는 것으로 나타난다.

This study investigates the causal relationship between public and private external debt and economic growth in developing countries. Our model includes 18 selected Asian developing and transition economies from 1995 thru 2019. We employ the dynamic heterogeneous panel data methods, pooled mean group (PMG), robust cross-sectional augmented autoregressive distributed lag (CS-ARDL), and pairwise panel causality test. The results of PMG and CS-ARDL show the existence of causality between external debt and economic growth both in the short-run and long-run. The pairwise Granger causality test found the bidirectional causal relationship runs from total external debt, public external debt, and private external debt to economic growth and economic growth to external debt. The results showed first the existence of causality in the short-run and long-run between external debt and economic growth and the second, bi-directional causality that runs from external debt to economic growth and economic growth to external debt. Both the dynamic models and robust estimator found the same inferences about the impact of main variables on economic growth in Asian developing and transition economies. The findings of this study suggest to assure debt management, investment in productive sectors, increase domestic savings, decrease external dependency, and focus on international trade.

Purpose - The study explores social well-being of the community of five selected countries of the South Asia: India, Pakistan, Sri Lanka, Nepal and Bangladesh. The study compares effectiveness of macroeconomic policies across the countries through interactive effects of the macroeconomic policy variables with the regional dummy variables. Research design, data, and methodology - Using the data set for the period of 1990-2008, this study employs panel data models, quantile regression methods, and the fixed effects method, which the constant is treated as group or country-specific. The model can also be known as the least-squares dummy variables estimator. Results - The results reveal significant chances of improvement in the well-being of the people while living in India and Pakistan as compared to the other countries of the region where India relatively stands with better chances of providing opportunities to improve the well-being of the people. Conclusions - This study recommends an increasing allocation of budget on education and health in order to enhance social well-being in the South Asian region. Inflation is the main cause of deteriorating well-being of the South Asian community by escalating the cost of living. Comprehensive study is recommended by employing the micro data models in the region.
