  • This study presents the effective stiffness-based optimal technique to control Quantitatively lateral drift for shear wall-frame structure system using sensitivity analysis. To this end, the element stiffness matrices are constituted to solve the compatibility problem of displacement degree of freedom between the frame and shear wall. Also, lateral drift constraint to introduce the approximation concept that can preserve the generality of the mathematical programming and can effectively solve the large scaled problems is established. And, the section property relationships for shear wall and frame members are considered in order to reduce the number of design variables and differentiate easily the stiffness matrices. Specifically, constant-shape assumption which is uniformly varying in size during optimal process is applied in frame structure. The thickness or length of shear wall can be changed depending on user's intent. Two types of 20 story shear wall-frame structure system are presented to illustrate the features of the stiffness-based optimal design technique.

  • As basic materials in this research, 874 pieces of engraving that recorded the garment produced by diverse authors in the 17-18th century were collected among the collections of male and female garment in the engraving kept by National Library of France and 216 pieces of engraving were classified among them to observe justaucorps as stated in the materials. Since type of justaucorps in the 18th century can be classified by difference in shape and change through the above engraving materials in large quantity and the shape and composition can be compared and analyzed with other materials such as picture, stored garment, written materials without difficulty, the chronology can be composed by single type of justaucorps. Intending to understand the change in composition caused by type classification and pattern making as per analysis of type property of justaucorps, the men's upper garment in France in the 18th century. Checking change in design per from and materials, justaucorps of 1680-1700s was in silhouette where waist in the length above knee was adhered and slightly spread to lower part. In the type of 1710-1750s, waist adhered remarkably and many pleats were made under waist to produce volume of form that spread to lower part like skirt. In the type of 1760-1780s, straight silhouette was attached to whole body and end of front adjustment in slant line turns to rear part. The developmental aspect of construction can be checked by making pattern. Changing the cutting line of body plate to smoothly connect section and to try to adhere to the body, the development of simpler and delicate pattern production technique was confirmed.

  • Since Ballast Water Management Convention has been adopted, Ballast Water Management Convention is not effected yet. This convention will only enter into force 12 months after its ratification by 30 states, collectively representing 35% of world merchant shipping tonnnage. Morocco, Indonesia and Ghana have ratified this convention during last 29th IMO Assembly meeting which was held in November 2015. In 2016, Belgium, Fiji, Saint Lucia and Peru have become the latest countries to ratify the convention. As of now, 51 states and 34.87% combined merchant fleets are being calculated. BWM convention will be applied to not only new ships but also, existing ships after it is effected. Thus, existing vessel will be retrofitted a Ballast Water Treatment System according to D-2 Requirement until first IOPP nenewal survey after date of entry into force of the convention. Currently, about 65 BWTSs certified by Administration will be reported to IMO, even type of BWTSs is very various. Thus, a risk of each BWTS can be existed, and this existed risk can be also effected to ship's crew safety and protection of ship's own property. Therefore, we have evaluated a risk assessment for an existing vessel retrofitting an ultra violet type Ballast Water Treatment System which is mostly developed in the world. And we described the procedure of selecting a sample vessel, consequently, bulk carrier is selected because this vessel kind is mostly charged in the world. Especially, DWT 175K size is selected. Risk Assessment is using a HAZID and HAZOP method, evaluation method is referred to IMO Document "Considerated test of the Guidelines for Formal Safety Assessment (FSA) for use in the IMO rule-marking process(MSC/Circ.1203-MEPC/Circ.392)". The Risk Assessment Section is decided to 3 Nodes, Consequently, total risks have evaluated 51 items.

  • Objective : The purpose of this study is to examine the effects of Gamisipjeontang-gamibang(GT) on an experimental bum elicitation. Method : The absorbance of the photo cell mixed with GT at the Abs 560 nm was measured after irradiation for 1 min. In order to know the antioxidant effect on skin cell of mice after burn elicitation, superoxide dismutase(SOD) activity was measured. Also, in order to know effects on the skin regeneration in the burned mice, we counted the eosinophil in blood from animals via cardiac puncture and observed the histological structure in the epidermal basal layer and the dermal section on the 3rd, 7th and 14th day after burn elicitation. We also studied changes in angiogenesis in the capillary surrounding the basal layer and dermal papilla. The changes of HSP70 distribution and changes of p53 positive reaction were observed to investigate the changes of the stress in the skin as well. Result : The results indicated that GT has a significant impact on the antioxidant effect on skin cells of mice after bum elicitation by increasing SOD activity in vitro test. GT seems to decrease MIP-2 which induces neutrophil infiltration and promotes the angiogenesis dose-dependently. Furthermore, GT decreased HSP70, the expression of which was induced by elevated temperatures, and p53 which induce a apoptosis after stress. Conclusion : GT can be applied to burned skin through its antioxidant effect and skin regeneration property.

  • When structural elements of steel framed structures are exposed to fire situations, the structural stability begins to decrease due to dislocation of substantial. The increase of the beam length causes an additional stress and deflection. These can be serious factors to cause a severe failure of structures. To improve the fire resistance of beams, prevention of the heat from a fire by coating with fire protection material is essential for beams. The FR 490 was developed to enhance fire resistance compared with SM 490 steel. However, the fire resistance of FR 490 H-beams has not been evaluated by analysis method since it was developed. In this paper, materials properties in high temperature and a heat transfer and thermal stress theory were used in the evaluation of the fire resistance of FR490 H-beams. The fire resistance of FR490 steel beams was compared with that of SM490 beams. The comparison verified that the structural stability of FR490 beams at high temperature was superior to that of SM490 beams.

  • Purpose: Soft tissue deformity and skin defect after tumor resection in the periorbital area can cause trouble in the function of eyelid as well as in the aspect of external appearance. Therefore, as cosidering reconstruction in periorbital area, detailed assessment of both functional and aesthetic property are required. thus, the purpose of this study is to examine an appropriate reconstruction through clinical cases. Methods: A 14-year-old girl with congenital giant hairy nevus on right periorbital area was selected. Her first visit to our plastic surgery outpatient clinic was on July 2006. Since then, she has undergone staged removal of lesions and reconstruction by various flap technique such as pedicled island flap, forehead galeal flap, paramedian forehead flap, cheek rotation & advancement flap. Results: In the case of this girl, most lesions were removed and replaced by normal skins. Although there was the difference of skin color after skin graft, such difference was not noticeable and section scar by skin flaps was slight. There was no obvious dysfunction in the eyelids and the girl and her parents were satisfied with results after the surgery. Conclusions: In the reconstruction of soft tissue defect or soft tissue deformity and contracture, it is required to choose appropriate reconstruction method, considering aesthetic and functional aspects depending on aesthetic unit sufficiently.

  • The adult guardianship system has been introduced through amendments of Korean Civil Code for the first time in the March 2011(Act No. 10429, 7. 1. 2013. enforcement). The adult guardianship system has the main purposes to provide a lot of help vulnerable adults and elderly, and protect them on the welfare related with property act, treatment, care, etc. There could be a controversy about whether the protection Legal Guardian's consent(formerly known as the Mental Health Act) or permission of the Family Court(revised Civil Code) are required to, or the Mental Health Act should be revised, when mental patient will be hospitalized forcibly. The author proposes that mental patient with Adult guardians should be determined by Legal Guardian's consent and approval of the Family Court, but mental patient without Adult guardians could be determined by Legal Guardian's consent. The issue of Withdrawing of life-sustaining treatment could be occurred due to the aging society and the development of modern medicine, and this has provided difficult, various problems to mankind in Legal, ethical, and social welfare aspects. The need of Death with dignity law or Natural death law has been reduced for a revision of the Civil Code. Therefore, on the issue of Withdrawing of life-sustaining treatment, in the future, intervention of the court is necessary in accordance with the revised Civil Code Section, and Organ Transplantation Act and the brain death criteria may serve as an important criterion.

  • Considering the seral stage of succession, phytosocialogical analysis was carried out to investigate the structure and property of community of Pinus densiflora, Pinus densiflora-Quercus spp.-Carpinus laxiflora, and Quercus spp.-Carpinus laxiflora. The study area included a section of 200m high at the sea level in Mt. Jokye, Seungju-gun, Chunlanam-do. The results show that density of forest trees tended to be decreased, Shannon species diversity index increased, and dominance decreased as seral stage progressed. Patterns of DBH class distribution showed nearly S types. In the study area succession of forest community might progressed toward climax, leading from Pinus densiflora community to Quercus spp.-Carpinus laxiflora community with intermediary Pinus densiflora-Quercus spp.-Carpinus laxiflora community. The fact that there was no pure community of Quercus spp. might be due to the rapid development of forest community investigated.

  • The loss of safety for reservoirs brought about by climate change and facility aging leads to reservoir failures, which results in the loss of lives and property damage in downstream areas. Therefore, it is necessary to provide a Reservoir Failure Forecasting System for downstream residents to detect the early signs of failure (with sensors) in real-time and perform safety management to prevent and minimize possible damage. For the verification of established water level management criteria, 10 water level data up to reservoir capacity was selected. Weight factor and trend line were applied to dramatic increase section of water level in the 1 year period data. The results shows that water level criteria based on three even parts shows less than 7% of standard deviation and it is appropriate to verify management criteria.

  • Purpose: The objective of this study is to evaluate the geometrical accuracy of a patient-specific bolus based on a three-dimensional (3D) printed mold and casting method. Materials and Methods: Three breast cancer patients undergoing treatment for a superficial region were scanned using computed tomography (CT) and a designed bolus structure through a treatment planning system (TPS). For the fabrication of patient-specific bolus, we cast harmless certified silicone into 3D printed molds. The produced bolus was also imaged using CT under the same conditions as the patient CT to acquire its geometrical shape. We compared the shapes of the produced bolus with the planned bolus structure from the TPS by measuring the average distance between two structures after a surface registration. Results and Conclusions: The result of the average difference in distance was within 1 mm and, as the worst case, the absolute difference did not exceed ${\pm}2mm$. The result of the geometric difference in the cross-section profile of each bolus was approximately 1 mm, which is a similar property of the average difference in distance. This discrepancy was negligible in affecting the dose reduction. The proposed fabrication of patient-specific bolus is useful for radiation therapy in the treatment of superficial regions, particularly those with an irregular shape.
