This study is on the evaluation of performance of polymer cement mortar which is used for pre-wetting spray method. Pre-wetting spray method is an epoch-making method to repair concrete structures damaged, which is added a small quantity water preciously to dry mortar to reduce dust and rebound and spray mortar mixed with fixed quantity water at nozzle before spray. The result showed that physical performance such like compressive, flexural and adhesive strength of polymer cement mortar, TS 100 used for pre-wetting spray method was superior to other repair mortar. Also durable performance such as resistance on permeability of chloride ion, carbonation, chemical and freezing-thawing was excellent.

The automotive manufactures increase their use of lightweight materials to improve fuel economy and energy usage has a significant influence on the choice of developing materials. To meet this requirements manufacturers are replacing individual body parts with lightweight metals, for these the process treating and painting surfaces is changing. The pre-coated steels are newly developed to avoid the conventional complex and non-environmental painting process in the body-in-white car manufacturing. The development of new joining techniques is critically needed for pre-coated steel sheets, which are electrically non-conductive materials. In the present study, dissimilar combination of pre-coated steel and galvanized steel sheets were joined by the self-piercing rivet, adhesive bonding and hybrid joining techniques. The tensile shear test and free falling high speed crash test were conducted to evaluate the mechanical properties of the joints. The highest tensile peak load with large deformation was observed for the hybrid joining process which has attained 48% higher than the self-piercing rivet. Moreover, the hybrid and adhesive joints were observed better strain energy compared to self-piercing rivet. The fractography analyses were revealed that the mixed mode of cohesive and interfacial fracture for both the hybrid and adhesive bonding joints.

Forty-six Holstein heifers were used in a completely randomized design and assigned to 1 of 2 treatments to evaluate the effects of 2 diets varying in ruminal fermentable carbohydrate sources, namely ground corn (GC) and rolled wheat (RW), on metabolism and performance of primiparous cows in the periparturient period. The heifers were fed diets as a total mixed ration (TMR) with similar energy and crude protein content including i) 18.57% GC, or ii) 18.57% RW from -24.13${\pm}$7.73 d relative to expected calving until calving. After calving, all animals received the same lactation diet until 28 d. Animals were group fed from the beginning of the study to -7 d relative to expected calving, fed individually from d -7 to 7 days in milk (DIM), and again group fed to 28 DIM. The pre-partum diets affected (p<0.05) dry matter intake (DMI), energy intake, energy balance (EB) and urinary pH during the last week pre-partum. There was no effect of pre-partum carbohydrate source on overall plasma concentration of glucose, nonesterified fatty acid (NEFA), $\beta$-hydroxybutyrate (BHBA), albumin, triglyceride (TG), cholesterol, aspartate aminotransferase (AST), insulin, and cortisol during the periparturient period. Cows fed the RW diet during the pre-partum period had greater calcium for the first week (p<0.05) and during 28 d (p = 0.08) of lactation compared with heifers fed the GC diet. Primiparous cows fed the RW diet produced greater milk protein content and yield (p<0.05). Primiparous cows fed the RW diet had lower milk urea nitrogen (MUN) and somatic cell count (SCC) than cows fed the GC diet (p<0.05). The results of this study show that feeding pre-partum diets with a rapidly fermentable source of starch but low energy content can improve animal metabolism and performance and smooth the transition of primiparous Holstein cows from gestation to lactation.

The permeability of concrete affects largely on the durability of concrete, therefore it is required that the correct assessment and improvement of permeability. Therefore it is rational method that the permeability of concrete structures is estimated in the common use states under loading than in the early sound conditions. In this study, to improve the permeable efficiency of concrete, some kinds of fiber and resin are mixed in making of concrete specimens. And also, for the reasonable assessment of permeability, after 50% and 70% pre-loadings of its compressive strength were acted on the specimens, the tests were executed. From the results of this study, in the case of 50% pre-loading coefficients of permeability were increased about 1.4times against the nonpre-loading specimens and in the case of 70% pre-loading they were increased about 17.8times. And it turned out that hybrid steel fiber reinforcement is most effective for the improvement of permeable efficiency of concrete.

The purposes of early orthodontic intervention are to correct obvious problems, to intercept developing problems and prevent them from becoming worse. Myofunctional influence on facial growth and the dentition change in muscle function and initiate morphologic variation in the normal configuration of the teeth and enhance an already existing malocclusion. Myofunctional therapy has been advocated since 1960's as the treatment for tongue thrust and other oral habits. Pre-orthodontic $TRAINER^{(R)}$ is introduced as functional device usable in children of mixed dentition to correct functional problems concerning soft tissue, tooth and skeleton. The most common cases to treat with Pre-orthodontic $TRAINER^{(R)}$ are lower anterior crowding, anterior open bite, Class II malocclusion and deep bite. Also, it can be used as correction of oral habits. Patients in this cases visited Department of Pediatric Dentistry, School of dentistry, Dankook University for orthodontic treatment. Pre-orthodontic treatment with Pre-orthodontic $TRAINER^{(R)}$ was carried out for correction of the oral habits.

This study examines the effects of mindfulness training on job stress, burnout, and teacher efficacy for middle school and high school teachers. For this study, twenty-four middle school and high school teachers were divided into experimental and control groups. Data analysis was performed using a Mixed ANOVA for teacher's job stress, burnout, and teacher efficacy according to pre-training, post-training and delayed post-training periods. As a result, we found support for time interval and between-group interaction effects for all the dependent variables. In order to investigate any delayed effects, a t-test was performed to analyze measurements taken one month after the completion of training period. The delayed post-training results indicated a significant effect between pre and post scores, meaning the program effects were sustained. Therefore, this study indicates that the mindfulness training program implemented in this research is an effective method for preventing job stress and burnout, as well as influencing the efficiency of work performance for middle school and high school teachers.

The bi-functional ion exchangers, SAPP-g-(AN/St) were synthesized with mixed vinyl monomers(acrylonitrile and styrene) onto PP fabric by the pre-irradiation grafting with E-beam and its subsequent amidoximination and sulfonation. The degree of grafting of PP-g-(AN/St) was increased with decreasing acrylonitrile composition in the mixed monomers. The water uptake of copolymers increased with decreasing in the amidoxime ratio in the copolymers and increased by sulfonation, but decreased by amidoximation. The $UO_2^{2+}$ adsorption capacity of SPP-g-St, APP-g-AN, and SAPP-g-(AN/St) were 12.4, 34.0, and 38.0 mg/g, respectively and the optimum adsorption time is about 50 hrs. As a result of uranium adsorption, the synthesized ion exchanger, which we obtained have also good affinity toward the adsorption or chelating with $UO_2^{2+}$ ions.

The need for statistical process control to check the performance of a process is becoming more important in chemical and pharmaceutical industries. This study illustrates the method to determine whether a process is in control and how to produce and interpret control charts. In the experiment, a stream of green dyed water and a stream of pure water were continuously mixed in the process. The concentration of the dye solution was measured before and after the mixer via a spectrophotometer. The in-line mixer provided benefits to the dye and water mixture but not for the stock dye solution. The control charts were analyzed, and the pre-mixer process was in control for both the stock and mixed solutions. The R and X-bar charts showed virtually all of the points within control limits, and there were no patterns in the X-bar charts to suggest nonrandom data. However, the post-mixer process was shown to be out of control. While the R charts showed variability within the control limits, the X-bar charts were out of control and showed a steady increase in values, suggesting that the data was nonrandom. This steady increase in dye concentration was due to discontinuous, non-steady state flow. To improve the experiment in the future, a mixer could be inserted into the stock dye tank. The mixer would ensure that the dye concentration of the stock solution is more uniform prior to entering the pre-mixer ow cell. Overall, this would create a better standard to judge the water and dye mixture data against as well.

In this study, the strength properties of NHL based mortar with blending basalt fiber were investigated. In the first step, it was evaluated that physical properties of NHL based mortar according to mixing method of four types of basalt fiber and then mixing method of one type was selected. As a result of assessment, it showed that the physical properties with mixing method of dry blending were better than that of wet blending and mixing method that basalt fiber pre-mixed with NHL for 5 min in a blender was selected and water and aggregate were finally added. Secondly, the investigation of blending fiber length on the compressive and flexural strength for basalt fiber reinforced NHL based mortars was carried out. The compressive strength was decreased with adding fiber, and the flexural strength was increased more than plain mortar. In the case of adding 6 mm fiber, the compressive and flexural strength were improved more than that of others.
