This research was to see if the fashion product ads are standardized or differentiated, and to find what were the determinants if any differentiation existed. The purpose of this study was to identify cultural characteristics significant on marketing fashion produce. In addition, the relative importance of product appeals between rational and emotional in the fashion ads was examined. Hofstede's(l991) three cultural characteristics dimensions such as individualism-collectivism, power distance, masculinity-femininity were used. Content analysis was applied in the study. Magazine ads of apparel, cosmetics and accessories were collected from France, Japan, Korea and the US in 1999-2000. Cultural characteristics of the fashion ads were evaluated and compared in terms of country, product type and product involvement. Also ten consumption appeals were examined for county and product type. ANOVA, Duncan test and $X^2$ test were applied to analyze data. The results were shown as follows: First, all the cultural characteristics such as individualism-collectivism, power distance, and femininity-masculinity were different among countries. Second, two product appeals were significantly different among countries. Hedonic appeals were dominant fur France and the US while those were not for Korea and Japan. Third, product involvement level had significant impact on power distance characteristic and product appeals. Ads of high involvement fashion goods showed larger power distance and more emotional appeals. In conclusion, global fashion ads should be differentiated in terms of some cultural characteristics and product appeals.

The purpose of this study is to develop a new proportional pressure reducing valve and to verify the validity of a new mechanism with pressure control pin. The dynamic characteristics of the object pressure reducing valve was studied by numerical analysis of the mathematical model. Also, static and dynamic characteristics of the new pressure control valve were tested with a testing system based on the test standard.

This paper presents analysis of control characteristics of high power hybrid multilevel PWM rectifier without bulky and heavy isolation transformers. It will be shown that the DC voltages for multilevel output generation may be directly built up from AC utility source. The multilevel PWM rectifier is analyzed by using the circuit DQ transformation whereby the static and dynamic characteristics and some useful design equations are obtained. Finally to confirm the validity of the analysis MATLAB simulation are carried out.

This paper proposes PFC boost converter with soft switching for harmonics decrement and analyzes characteristics of PFC boost converter. In this technique power factor correction(PFC) is usually obtained by operating the PFC stage in the discontinuous current mode(DCM) Switching devices are operated for reducing current stress and electronical noise. As a result eliminate 3rd harmonic component and high power factor(PF) of the input line are verified by characteristics analysis and experimental results.

This paper studies the operational characteristics of thyristor controlled shunt compensator in a simple power t transmission system. With Fourier series representation of the thyristor switching action and the system parameters, t the thyristor current equations are derived, which transmit the required real power of the simple power transmission s system. Bisection algorithm is used to solve the thyristor current equations, which informs the thyristor firing an밍e, t the thyristor conduction an밍e, the power flows and the harmonic characteristics. The stability analysis is performed w with the theory of Poincare mapping for the nonlinear discrete periodic dynamic system. EMTP simulations at the v various operating points show the transient characteristics of the thyristor controlled shunt compensator and C correspond to the results calculated with Fourier series representation and the stability analysis.

Characteristics of 0.98 $\mu$m-pumped erbium-doped fiber (EDF) sources with double-pass forward (DPF) configuration are analyzed by numerical calculation. Various source characteristics such as output power, spectral width and mean-wavelength stability are investigated with the variation of EDF length, pump power and pump wavelength. Some of the numerical results are compared with experimental ones for verification. The results show that the characteristics of sources with DPF configuration can change considerably with the EDF length. It is also found that an optimum design can exist for stable mean-wavelength against fluctuations of pump power and pump wavelength.

Heliostat in the tower type solar thermal power plant is a sun tracking mirror system to reflect the solar energy to the receiver and the optical performance of it affects to the efficiency of whole power plant most significantly. Thus a solid understanding of heliostat's energy concentration characteristics is the most important step in designing of the heliostat field and the whole power plant. The work presented here is the analysis of energy concentration characteristics of heliostat used in 200kW solar thermal power plant, where the receiver located at 43m high in tower has $2{\times}2$m rectangular shape. The heliostat reflective surface is formed by 4 of $1{\times}1$m flat plate mirror facet and the mirror facet is mounted on the spherical frame. The direct normal incident radiation models in vernal equinox, summer solstice, autumnal equinox and winter solstice are first derived from the actually measured data. Then the intercept ratio, heat flux distribution and total energy collected at the receiver for the heliostats located in the various places of the heliostat field are investigated. Finally the effect of mirror facet installation error on the optical performance of the heliostat is analyzed.
