In this study, a horticultural therapy program was performed by employing the anger experienced by people during daily life activities in the emotion regulation strategy-based program to identify the influence of the horticultural program on anger control in the caregivers for patients with dementia. To measure this influence, two tools were used: a self-administered questionnaire survey, which is a subjective test, and an instrumental test, which can measure the physical index that detects the physical changes through anger. For the preliminary test, depression, stress, self-esteem, anxiety, and anger state-characteristic were tested using the self-administered questionnaire. For the follow-up test, the self-administered survey and the test using the physical index were performed in a manner similar to that of the preliminary test. The self-administered questionnaire comprised questions suitable to this study and considered the age, education level, and economic aspect of the subjects. The test results indicated that the experimental group subjected to the emotion regulation strategy-based horticultural therapy showed very significant reduction in depression and anger and significant reduction in stress, self-esteem, and anxiety. In the physical index test, the systolic and diastolic blood pressures were reduced, and the pulse rate and respiration rate reduced before and after the therapy, thus, proving the effectiveness of the therapy in anger control.

마늘에 있어서 이차생장은 구의 품위를 떨어뜨리며 심할 경우에는 작은 인편이 많이 착생하는 등 종구로 사용하기에도 어렵게 된다. 따라서 남도마늘 대주아 재배시 지온, 파종시기 및 시비량이 이차생장에 미치는 영향을 알아보고자 하였다. 시비수준별 남도마늘 대주아 재배시 생장특성을 살펴보면 초장, 엽수, 엽초경, 엽장, 엽폭은 검정시비구의 50% 증비를 하였을 경우가 가장 좋았다. 이차생장 발생율은 검정시비구의 50% 감비시 34.2%, 검정시비구에서는 44.3%, 검정시비구의 50% 증비하였을 경우는 54.1%로 시비량이 증가할수록 이차생장 발생률도 증가하였다. 수확한 구의 평균무게는 검정시비구의 50% 감비시 34.1g, 검정시비구에서는 35.1g 이었으며 검정시비구의 50% 증비시에는 33.9g로 시비량에 따른 수량변화는 없었다. 지중온도와 이차생장 발생과의 상관도를 보면 0.982~0.997로 매우 높게 나타나는 것으로 보아 남도마늘 대주아재배시 이차생장 발생은 지중온도와 상당히 밀접한 상관관계가 있었다. 파종시기가 빠를수록 초장, 엽수, 엽초경 등 지상부 생육이 좋았으며 평균구중도 9월 중순파종구가 36g, 9월 하순 파종구가 29.6g, 10월 상순처리구가 27.9g으로 파종이 빠를수록 구가 컸다. 반면 파종시기와 이차생장발생 간에는 별영향이 없는 것으로 조사되었다.

The measurement of Heart Rate Variability (HRV) using electrocardiogram (ECG) signals has been used to predict fatigue and stress levels in a clinical environment, yet, owing to the complexity of such ECG systems, a domestic, nonclinical monitoring of HRV has not been a practical possibility. Recently though, Pulse Rate Variability (PRV) has been studied as an alternative to HRV. In this study, we investigated the reliability of measuring PRV by means of a smartwatch. The PRV results were compared to HRV results in similar test conditions, i.e. those obtained under rapid and deep-breathing scenarios. From the results obtained, it transpires that the Bland-Altman ratio and cross-correlation coefficients between several PRV and HRV parameters were highly correlated, thus suggesting that the results of measuring PRV using a smartwatch can be used to predict HRV in nonclinical environments.

The problem of fluctuation-induced digital errors in a rapid single flux quantum (RSFQ) circuit has been a very important issue. In this work, we calculated the bit error rate of an RSFQ switch used in superconductive arithmetic logic unit (ALU). RSFQ switch should have a very low error rate in the optimal bias. Theoretical estimates of the RSFQ error rate are on the order of $10^{-50}$ per bit operation. In this experiment, we prepared two identical circuits placed in parallel. Each circuit was composed of 10 Josephson transmission lines (JTLs) connected in series with an RSFQ switch placed in the middle of the 10 JTLs. We used a splitter to feed the same input signal to both circuits. The outputs of the two circuits were compared with an RSFQ exclusive OR (XOR) to measure the bit error rate of the RSFQ switch. By using a computerized bit-error-rate test setup, we measured the bit error rate of $2.18{\times}10^{-12}$ when the bias to the RSFQ switch was 0.398 mA that was quite off from the optimum bias of 0.6 mA.

The Effect of Space Velocity(SV) on NOx conversion rate was performed to develop NOx reduction after-treatment system. SV is calculated from engine exhaust gas volume and SCR catalyst volume. Found the Urea injection duty of maximum efficiency for NOx conversion if increase SV, NOx Conversion rate is down. Especially, when SV is more than $110,000h^{-1}$, NOx conversion rate decrease suddenly. Same case, if SV is lower than $40,000h^{-1}$, NOx conversion rate is down. Also, the characterization of Urea-SCR system was performed. Three candidate injectors for injecting Urea were tested in terms of 속 injection rate and NOx reduction rate. The performances of SCR catalytic converter on temperature were investigated. The performance of Urea-SCR system was estimated in the NEDC test cycle with and without EGR. It was found that nozzle type injector had high NOx conversion rate. SCR catalytic converter had the highest efficiency at the temperature of $350^{\circ}C$. EGR+Urea-SCR system achieved NOx reduction efficiency of 73% through the NEDC test cycle.

Tensile deformation behavior with different strain rate was investigated. $Zr_{56.2}Ti_{13.8}Nb_{5.0}Cu_{6.9}Ni_{5.6}Be_{12.5}$(bulk metallic glass alloy possessed crystal phase which was called $\beta$-phase of dendrite shape, mean size of $20{\sim}30{\mu}m$ and occupied 25% of the total volume) was used in this study. Maximum tensile strength was obtained as 1.74GPa at strain rate $10^2s^{-1}$ and minimum strength was found to be 1.6GPa at $10^{-1}s^{-1}$. And then, maximum plastic deformation occurred at the strain rate of $5{\times}10^{-2}s^{-1}$ and represented 1.75%, though minimum plastic deformation showed 0%. In the specific range of strain rate, relatively higher plastic deformation and lower ultimate tensile strength were found with lots of shear bands. The fractographical observation after tensile test indicated that vein like pattern on the fracture surface was well developed especially in the above range of strain rate.

And then, maximum plastic deformation occurred at the strain rate of $5{\times}10^{-2}/s$ and represented 1.75%, though minimum plastic deformation showed 0%. In the specific range of strain rate, relatively higher plastic deformation and lower ultimate tensile strength were found with lots of shear bands.

Steel was exposed in an atmospheric environment, and atmospheric environmental factors that include chloride, humidity, SO₂, NO₂ etc. induced the corrosion of steel. Corrosivity categories classified by SO₂ and chloride deposition rate were low, but those classified by TOW were high in the Korean Peninsula, and on these environmental categories, the corrosivity of atmospheres classified by corrosion rate in carbon steel was low medium, C2-C3, and medium, C3 for zinc, copper, and aluminum. This work performed the outdoor exposure test for 10 years at 14 areas in Korea and calculated the atmospheric corrosion rate of carbon steel. The atmospheric corrosion behavior of carbon steel is discussed based on the various corrosion factors. When the corrosion product forms on carbon steel by atmospheric corrosion, cracks may also be formed, and through these cracks, the environmental factors can penetrate into the interior of the product, detach some of the corrosion products and finally corrode locally. Thus, the maximum corrosion rate was about 7.3 times greater than the average corrosion rate. The color difference and glossiness of carbon steel by the 10 year-outdoor exposure tests are discussed based on the corrosion rate and the environmental factors.

비행기 방어용 대공포는 저고도 방어체계로 사용되고 있으며, 방어능력 극대화를 위해 대부분 고발사율 대공포를 두개 이상 탑재하여 교전 시 명중률을 높이고 있다. 고 발사율 대공포의 경우, 포열진동 및 탄의 불균형 분산은 정확한 조준사격 및 명중률에 아주 결정적인 영향을 미치게 된다. 따라서 사격 진동 및 충격량을 감소하는 구조는 대공포 체계에서는 주요 설계 대상이다. 본 연구에서는 차량의 현가장치 특성에 따라 고발사율 대공포 체계에서 발사시스템의 진동충격으로부터 차단하는 능력을 향상시키고, Recurdyn 과 Adams 를 이용한 동적 거동해석과 실 사격 시험결과를 비교하여 명중률에 영향을 미치는 현가 형태, 위치 및 수량에 따른 체계 자세 흔들림을 예측하였다. 본 연구를 통하여 대공포에 적합한 현가장치와 포 스프링 등과 같은 구성품을 선정할 수 있는 기초연구를 수행하였다.
