The purpose of this descriptive study was to evaluate the clinical validity of QSCCII (Questionnaire for the Sasang Constitution Classification), whose high accuracy as a constitutional diagnostic tool has been recognized by medical professionals. The subjects of this study were 568 clients from an A university hospital in Suwon. Of the subjects, 259 were health center visitors and 292 were ambulatory clinic visitors. Data were collected using self-reported questionnaire and were analyzed by $X^2$-test and one-way ANOVA. The results of this study as follows: 1. In 4 types of constitution, Soeumin type was found in 41.5% of the subjects. Taeumin type in 39.2%.,and Soyangin type in 19.2%, respectively. There was no Tayangin type found in this study. There were no significant differences on types of constitution by demographic characteristics such as age, sex, marital status, education, religion, and economic status. 2. As for 15 item-selective questionnaire, there were statistically significant differences on the response rate of the 12 items, except items such as A4, A11 and A14, by the types of constitution. When the subjects' own criteria on their constitution were compared to the given constitutional criteria on each item, 4 items such as A6, A11, A13 and A14 were advisable to be excluded from the questionnaire or to be reunited to the other criteria. In the meanwhile, 3 items such as A7, A18 and A15 were desirable to be re-categorized to the other constitutional types and reconstructed to the QSCC II questionnaire. 3. In terms of 106 true-false questionnaire, there were statistically significant differences on the response rate of 46 items by the types of constitution. The 46 items include 15 items (32.6%) of the domain of 'handling something/strength and weakness', 4 items (8.7%) of the domain of 'interpersonal relationship', 9 items (19.6%) of the domain of 'state of mind at ordinary times', 2 items (4.3%) of the domain of 'distinctive emotional characteristics' area, 11 items (23.9%) of the domain of 'specific behavioral trait' and 5 items (10.9%) of the domain of 'physical characteristics'. Therefore, the areas of 'handling something/strength and weakness' and' specific behavioral trait' mainly contributed to the classification of constitutional type. 4. When the 106 true-false items were simplified to the 46 items, statistically significant differences were found on the rate of items allocated to the 3 types of constitution. The rate of selection assigned to the 3 constitutional types of the simplified 46-item questionnaire was higher than that of the original 106-item questionnaire. Conclusions; It was concluded that the rate of selection of each lay person about his own constitutional type would be still higher even though the simplified items of QSCC II questionnaire were applied. If more replicated studies are conducted on the diverse population using the simplifying QSCC II questionnaire in the future, a more simplified standardized Sasang Constitution Questionnaire that is available to the public rather than to medical staffs in the clinical settings could be developed. Moreover, the simplified scale will help nurses deliver more efficient nursing care by providing a more rapid way of health assessment.

The purpose of this study was to analyze characteristics related to the activity of Daily Living (ADL) and dementia among the elderly people who have Medicaid. The cross-sectional descriptive survey study was a nationwide randomization sampling among the population of elderly families who have Medicaid. The data were collected during the month of October, 1999 and total sample was 1,027 elderly people. There were major findings according to the studies. In the results of the ADL assessment most of elderly people were within the 24 to 45 point range. Also, 63.3% of elderly people who made 45 points do not need help when performing daily activities according to the 15 areas of activity components, and 4.9% of these people couldn't do their daily activities. The results of the Dementia assessment were 70.6% of elderly people were in the normal range, 21.7% have a mild case, and 2.8% have severe case of dementia. These were found by using instruments for mental states, which simplified to items of detection of early dementia. In the result of these tests, there was a significantly positive correlation between ADL and degree of dementia with the pearson correlation coefficients. As a result of these studies, the author recommend to strengthen function and organization of public health like a visiting nurse center for elderly people who are over 65 years old. In addition, the government should apply early detection and management system for dementia in the community continuously and cost-effectively, especially for elderly people who live alone and are vulnerable elderly as our priority.

Many damages due to flow-accelerated corrosion and cracking have been observed during recent in-service inspections of nuclear power plants. To determine the operability or repair for damaged pipes, an integrity evaluation related to the damaged piping system should be performed by using already proven code and standards. One of them, the ASME Code Case is most popularly used to integrity assessment in nuclear power plants. However, the recent version of CC N-513 still recommends the simplified method which means a damaged elbow is assumed as an equivalent straight pipe. In addition, to enhance the accuracy integrity assessment in elbow, several previous studies recommend that the SIF and elastic COD values for an elbow with relatively large crack could be predicted by an interpolation technique. However, those estimates for elbow with relatively large crack might be derived to inaccurate results for crack growth analysis, such as for the allowable crack size and life estimation. Therefore, in this paper, the effect of crack length (0.3≤θ₁/π≤0.5) on SIF and elastic COD for elbow is systematically investigated. Then, for large crack in elbow, accurate estimates for SIF and elastic COD, which are widely used to assess the integrity of elbows, are proposed. Those proposed solutions are expected to be the technical basis for revisions of CC N-513-4 through the validation.

본 연구는 오염부지의 위해성 평가를 위해 수치모의 기반 오염물질의 노출이동경로 평가에 활용가능한 개념모델을 제시하였다. 이를 위하여 1차원으로 유한차분 기법을 적용하여 지하수 내 오염물질 이송확산을 모의하였다. 불포화대 경로에서의 수리지질학적 및 오염물질 매개변수가 가질 수 있는 범위를 설정하여 범용 시나리오 및 오염물질별 시나리오를 구성하여 모의에 적용하였다. 모델에서는 흡착 및 생분해를 갖는 유한차분 1 차원 이송확산이 고려되었고, 또한 초기 농도가 시간이 지남에 따라 고갈되는 것을 가정하였다. 일반 시나리오의 결과는 지하수 침투율이 감소함에 따라, 오염원에서 지하수면까지의 경로가 길어질수록 지하수면으로 유입되는 지점의 농도 범위는 낮아졌다. 특히, 높은 생분해 속도와 오염원의 빠른 고갈의 경우, 범용 시나리오가 좁은 범위의 지하수 유입농도 예측치를 보여주었다.

While there exists a relatively large body of technical information for the engineered design of wood-frame buildings to resist seismic ground motions, the quantitative assessment of seismic resistance of conventional houses built by prescriptive requirements is less well understood. Forintek Canada Corp., in collaboration with other research and industry partners, has embarked on a research project to address this topic. This paper will report on the seismic shake table tests of a full-scale wood-frame building. The two-story specimen, $6m{\times}6m$ in plan, was built on the seismic shake table at Tongji University in Shanghai, China, according to Part 9 of the 1995 National Building Code of Canada and shaken uni-directionally in each of the two principal directions. Three different seismic table motions were applied at increasing peak ground motion amplitudes up to 0.40 and 0.50 g. The specimen was repaired after the above sets of seismic table motions, and successive runs were conducted for increased door openings. Measurements included specimen accelerations, displacements and anchorage forces. Static stiffness of the specimen was measured at low force levels, and natural frequencies were measured after each seismic loading stage by applying low-level random excitation. The results presented consist of the capacity spectra of the shake table tests, changes in specimen stiffness and natural frequencies with increasing seismic loading. These results and those from other recent shake table tests elsewhere will be compared with simplified engineering calculations based on codified values of strength, and on that basis preliminary conclusions will be drawn on the adequacy of the current code provisions and design guides in Canada and the USA for conventional wood-frame construction.

최근 한반도 및 주변 지역에 지진 발생 횟수가 증가함에 따라 지진피해 대책 및 내진설계에 대한 중요성이 대두되고 있다. 이에 지진 발생 시 우려되는 문제 중 하나인 액상화에 대한 관심과 우려의 목소리가 높아지는 실정이다. 특정 지반에 대하여 지반정보를 활용하면 액상화 발생 여부에 대한 가능성을 평가하는 것이 가능하며 이에 대한 다양한 방법이 존재한다. 그러나 각 방법에 대한 직접적인 비교는 아직 이뤄지지 않은 실정이다. 따라서 본 연구에서는 대표적인 액상화 평가방법인 간편법에 필요한 전단저항 응력비(CRR)를 산정하는 방법 중 SPT-N값과 전단파 속도를 이용한 두 가지 방법의 비교 및 이를 활용하는데 요구되는 지반정보의 보정에 대한 비교 분석을 실시하였고 SPT-N값을 활용하여 액상화 발생 여부를 평가할 경우 더 정확한 것으로 확인되었다.

액상화 평가를 수행할 때 진동전단응력비(CSR)는 일반적으로 지반응답해석 또는 Seed & Idriss의 간편법을 수정한 방법을 통해 산정하고 있다. 본 연구에서는 진동전단응력비 산정방법의 적용성을 분석하기 위하여 1차원 등가선형 지반응답해석을 수행한 후 미연방도로국(FHWA), 일본도로협회(JRA), 국내설계기준(KDS) 등에서 제안한 방법을 적용하여 진동전단응력비를 산정하였다. 연구결과, 국내설계기준(KDS)으로 산정한 진동전단응력비가 해석 결과와 가장 큰 오차를 나타내었다. 그 이유는 국내설계기준의 경우 깊이에 따른 응력감소계수를 최대진동전단응력의 비가 아닌 최대지반가속도의 비로 정의하는 오류가 있기 때문이다.

확률론적 지진취약도 평가는 구조물 혹은 기기의 손상확률을 각 취약도 변수별 조합을 통해 이루어진다. 지진취약도로부터 구해지는 2개 이상 기기의 동시손상확률 계산은 기존에는 각 기기의 손상확률을 독립으로 가정해 왔다. 하지만 기기별 손상확률에 상관성이 있으며, 이를 평가한 결과 상관성에 따라 동시손상확률이 변화할 수 있는 결과를 보였다. 이 지진상관성을 무시하면 비보수적인 결과가 나오고 따라서 이를 고려해서 계산되어야 한다. 이 연구에서는 지진상관계수를 해석적으로 평가하기 위해 몇 가지 확률 변수를 선정하여 각 변수별로 혹은 통합하여 평가하고 그 차이를 비교했다. 그리고 단순화된 모델과, 복잡한 모델에 대한 상관계수 차이도 비교하였다. 이들 방법에 따른 상관계수의 결과와 차이를 분석했다. 그 결과 각 변수별로 평가하는 것과 통합하여 평가할 때 변수별 영향의 차이에 따라 상관성이 변화함을 확인하였고, 모델이 단순할수록 상관성이 높아짐을 확인하였다.

The rapid proliferation of oil/gas drilling and wind turbine installations with jack-up rig-formed structures increases structural safety requirements, due to the greater risks of operational collisions during use of these structures. Therefore, current industrial practices and regulations have tended to increase the required accidental collision design loads (impact energies) for jack-up rigs. However, the existing simplified design approach tends to be limited to the design and prediction of local members due to the difficulty in applying the increased uniform impact energy to a brace member without regard for the member's position. It is therefore necessary to define accidental load estimation in terms of a reasonable collision scenario and its application to the structural response analysis. We found by a collision probabilistic approach that the kinetic energy ranged from a minimum of 9 MJ to a maximum 1049 MJ. Only 6% of these values are less than the 35 MJ recommendation of DNV-GL (2013). This study assumed and applied a representative design load of 196.2 MN for an impact load of 20,000 tons. Based on this design load, the detailed design of a leg structure was numerically verified via an FE analysis comprising three categories: linear analysis, buckling analysis and progressive collapse analysis. Based on the numerical results from this analysis, it was possible to predict the collapse mode and position of each member in relation to the collision load. This study provided a collision strength assessment between attendant vessels and a jack-up rig based on probabilistic collision scenarios and nonlinear structural analysis. The numerical results of this study also afforded reasonable evaluation criteria and specific evaluation procedures.
