Purpose: This study was done to identify the effect of nursing organizational culture on empowerment as perceived by new clinical nurses. Method: For the objective a sample of 175 new nurses from secondary/tertiary hospitals having not less than 250 beds located in B city was selected to complete a questionnaire. The collected data were analyzed using descriptive statistics, t-test, One-way ANOVA, Scheffe's test, Pearson correlation coefficients and simultaneous multiple regression with the SPSS 14.0 software program. Results: As for nursing organizational culture as perceived by the respondent, relation-oriented culture had the highest average score ($3.60{\pm}.63$) out of a possible 5 points followed by hierarch-oriented culture, innovation-oriented culture and task-oriented culture with $3.45{\pm}.30$, $3.19{\pm}.53$ and $3.05{\pm}.46$, respectively. The respondents' level of perceived empowerment was $3.06{\pm}.41$. The factors influencing empowerment according to nursing organizational culture were innovation-oriented and relation-oriented culture in that order. These 2 variables were statistically significant predictors and explained 48.6% of the variance in empowerment. Conclusions: The results of this study indicate that emphasis should be given to nursing organizational culture strengthened by innovationoriented and relation-oriented culture, rather than task-oriented and hierarch-oriented culture, in order to foster harmonious empowerment among nurses at all levels.

We demonstrate an 80km-reach 64-channel DWDM-PON based on wavelength-locked F-P LDs by changing the position of the C-band BLS for upstream channels from the CO to the RN. It mitigates the necessity of the high power C-band BLS and its handling problems. It also reduces back scattering induced penalty. We obtained less than $10^{-6}$ PLRs in all 128channels through 80km SMF. We also demonstrate a 240km-reach DWDM-PON based on wavelength-locked F-P LDs by adding a bidirectional erbium-doped fiber amplifier(EDFA). We show packet-loss-free transmission in all 128channels at 125 Mb/s per channel over 240km SMF We report the detuning effect of arrayed waveguide gratings(AWGs) and crosstalk effect in the implemented system. We Propose an architecture of a next generation defense wire communication system with the demonstrated long-reach DWDM-PON.

Monomeric rhodium and iridium-diaryltetrazene complexes $Cp^*$M(RNN=NNR)($Cp^*$=1,2,3,4,5-pentamethylcyclope ntadienyl; M=Rh, Ir; R=Ph, 4-tolyl) have been synthesized from [$Cp^*MCl_2]_2$(M=Rh, Ir) and 2 equiv. of $[Li(THF)_x]_2(RN_4$R) in benzene. We have determined the crystal structure of (${\eta}^5$-pentamethylcyclopentadienyl)diphenyltetrazene iridium by using graphite-monochromated Mo-$K_a$ radiation. The compound was crystallized in the monoclinic space group $P2_{1/c}$ with a=13.781(3), b=9.035(l), c=17.699(3) ${\AA}$, and ${\beta}=111.93(l)^{\circ}$. An X-ray crystal structure of complex 1 showed a short N(2)-N(3) distance ($1.265 {\AA}$) consistent with the valence tautomer A with Ir(III) rather than Ir(I). All complexes are highly colored and decompose on irradiation at 254 nm. Electrochemical studies show that complex 1 displays a quasi-reversible reduction.

Causality mining in NLP is a significant area of interest, which benefits in many daily life applications, including decision making, business risk management, question answering, future event prediction, scenario generation, and information retrieval. Mining those causalities was a challenging and open problem for the prior non-statistical and statistical techniques using web sources that required hand-crafted linguistics patterns for feature engineering, which were subject to domain knowledge and required much human effort. Those studies overlooked implicit, ambiguous, and heterogeneous causality and focused on explicit causality mining. In contrast to statistical and non-statistical approaches, we present Bidirectional Encoder Representations from Transformers (BERT) integrated with Multi-level Feature Networks (MFN) for causality recognition, called BERT+MFN for causality recognition in noisy and informal web datasets without human-designed features. In our model, MFN consists of a three-column knowledge-oriented network (TC-KN), bi-LSTM, and Relation Network (RN) that mine causality information at the segment level. BERT captures semantic features at the word level. We perform experiments on Alternative Lexicalization (AltLexes) datasets. The experimental outcomes show that our model outperforms baseline causality and text mining techniques.

Suitability for the human body, freedom to move and thermal insulation are important design considerations in military clothing. This study investigates the performance and wearer-satisfaction of the functional inner winter uniform currently used in Korea; it is hoped that our data can inform the development of a future version. Interviews were conducted, in which the participants suggested various improvements. The uniforms were mainly worn for guard duty or as daily attire in cold weather. The participants chose how many layers to wear according to the current situation, rather than sticking to the layering recommended in the manual. Layering choices did not significantly affect combat efficiency but were found to affect wearers' comfort. Wearers' satisfaction was found to depend on the convenience of the clothing, whether it was in the appropriate size, freedom to move and thermal insulation. Also, this study suggests a problem with the current size system, as the analysis of size distribution, across all sizes, the range of current production is insufficient to cover the demand.

Due to its short half-life, thoron gas has been assumed to have negligible health hazards on humans compared to radon. But, one of the decay products with a long half-life can make it to be transported to a long distance and to cause a severe internal dose through respiration. Since most commercial radon detectors can not discriminate thoron signals from radon signals, it is very common to overestimate radon doses which in turn result in biased estimation of lung cancer risk in epidemiological studies. Though some methods had been suggested to measure thoron and radon separately, they could not be used for real-time measurement because of CR-39 or LR-115. In this study, an effective method was suggested to measure radon and thoron separately from the free air. It was observed that the activity of thoron decreases exponentially due to delay time caused by a long pipe between two chambers. Therefore from two ion chambers apart in time, it was demonstrated that thoron and radon could be measured separately and simultaneously. We also developed a collimated alpha source and with this source and an SBD, we could convert the ion chamber reading to count rate in cps.

The sintering shrinkage behaviors of low temperature cofired ceramics (LTCC) and resistors were compared using commercial LTCC and thick-film resistor pastes, and factors influencing the camber of cofired resistor/LTCC bi-layers were also investigated. The onset of sintering shrinkage of the resistor occurred earlier than that of LTCC in all resistors, but the end of sintering shrinkage of the resistor occurred earlier or later than that of LTCC depending on the composition of the resistor. The sintering shrinkage end temperature and the sintering shrinkage temperature interval of the resistor increased as the RuO₂/glass volume ratio of the resistor increased. The camber of cofired resistor/LTCC bi-layers was obtained using three different methods, all of which showed nearly identical trends. The camber of cofired resistor/LTCC bi-layers was not affected by either the difference in linear shrinkage strain after sintering between LTCC and resistors or the similarity of sintering shrinkage temperature ranges of LTCC and resistors. However, it was strongly affected by the RuO₂/glass volume ratio of the resistor. The content of Ag and Pd had no effect on the sintering shrinkage end temperature or sintering shrinkage temperature interval of the resistor, or on the camber of cofired resistor/LTCC bi-layers.

An improved mitigation system for thermally-induced steam generator tube rupture accidents was introduced to prevent direct environmental release of fission products bypassing the containment in the OPR1000. This involves injecting bypassed steam into the containment, cooling, and decontaminating it using a water coolant tank. To evaluate its performance, a severe accident analysis was performed using the MELCOR 2.2 code for OPR1000. Simulation results show that the proposed system sufficiently prevented the release of radioactive nuclides (RNs) into the environment via containment injection. The pool scrubbing system effectively decontaminated the injected RN and consequently reduced the aerosol mass in the containment atmosphere. However, the decay heat of the collected RNs causes re-vaporization. To restrict the re-vaporization, an external water source was considered, where the decontamination performance was significantly improved, and the RNs were effectively isolated. However, due to the continuous evaporation of the feed water caused by decay heat, a substantial amount of steam is released into the containment. Despite the slight pressurization inside the containment by the injected and evaporated steam, the steam decreased the hydrogen mole fraction, thereby reducing the possibility of ignition.
