This study examined the perception and readiness of nursing educators regarding interprofessional education (IPE), and discussed the validity and application of IPE in nursing. From December 2016 to January 2017, 239 nursing professors and nurses completed a structured questionnaire consisting of general characteristics, the Interdisciplinary Education Perception Scale, the Readiness for Interprofessional Learning Survey (RIPLS), and an IPE action plan. The collected data were analyzed by descriptive statistics and t-test using the IBM SPSS ver. 23.0 program (IBM Corp., Armonk, NY, USA). The analysis revealed that 91.6% of the participants had not experienced IPE, and only 11.7% knew about IPE. However, approximately 80.0% answered that IPE is necessary. The results of this study showed that the score of the perceived need for cooperation was higher in nurses than it was in professors, while the score on competency and autonomy was higher in professors than it was in nurses. With reference to the scores on the RIPLS, those of professors were high on the sub-scales of teamwork and collaboration, professional identity, and roles and responsibility. The results revealed that participants considered the upper-grade undergraduate years as the ideal time for imparting IPE, and it was deemed suitable to include communication, simulation, and clinical practice in IPE. Doctors, pharmacists, and physiotherapists were thought to require cooperation for IPE the most. Despite the presence of several barriers to IPE, the participants thought that IPE can achieve learning outcomes such as interprofessional communication and cooperation, conflict resolution, and teamwork. It is necessary to cooperate with professionals in the complex clinical environment as professional areas are specialized and subdivided. Therefore, it is necessary to examine the application of IPE in undergraduate education and in on-the-job training.

휴대용 기기와 다양한 위치 기반 서비스의 확산으로 공간데이터의 양적 팽창이 가속화됨에 따라 대용량의 공간데이터를 효율적으로 다룰 수 있는 기술의 중요성이 점차 커지고 있다. 클라우드 컴퓨팅은 인터넷을 통해 스토리지, 메모리, 애플리케이션 등 다양한 전산 자원을 공유할 수 있는 서비스 환경으로, 최근 이를 활용해 대용량의 공간데이터를 처리, 분석하는 방법과 그 필요성에 관한 연구가 활발히 수행되어 왔다. 그러나 아직까지 대용량 공간데이터의 분석에 클라우드 컴퓨팅 플랫폼을 활용했을 때 어느 정도의 성능 향상을 기대할 수 있는지에 대한 실증적 연구는 비교적 많이 이루어지지 않았으며, 본 연구의 목표는 이러한 논의의 공백을 채우는 것이다. 이를 위해 연구에서는 클라우드 컴퓨팅 플랫폼에서 병렬 연산을 사용했을 때 모란지수와 지리가중회귀분석의 연산 속도가 어느 정도 향상되는지 살펴보았으며, 그 결과를 통해 클라우드 컴퓨팅을 활용한 공간분석의 효율성을 평가하였다. 실험 결과, 중앙처리장치의 클록 수가 더 높은 로컬 컴퓨터에 비해 병렬 연산에 적합한 환경을 갖춘 공용 클라우드 컴퓨팅 플랫폼에서 좀 더 효율적인 연산이 가능했으며, 데이터의 규모가 클수록 격차가 더욱 크게 나타났다.

When standardized patients (SPs) are used for educational purposes, the authenticity of role play and the quality of feedback are essential requirements of SPs. This study was conducted to investigate medical students' assessment of SPs and to identify the components of SPs' performance that were most strongly correlated with patient-physician interaction score. One hundred and forty-two fourth-year medical students were asked to complete the Maastricht Assessment of Simulated Patients (MaSP) at the end of a clinical performance examination. SPs evaluated the patient-physician interactions using a 4-point Likert scale (1=poor to 4=excellent). Medical students' assessment of SPs using the MaSP was positively correlated with patient-physician interactions (r=0.325, p<0.01). Items addressing the authenticity of role play (e.g., "SPs appear authentic," "SPs might be real patients," and "SPs answer questions in a natural manner") were closely correlated with patient-physician interactions (p<0.001, p=0.027, and p=0.017, respectively). These results showed that the MaSP appears to be a useful instrument for evaluating SPs' performance and that the authenticity of SPs' performance was positively correlated with medical students' interactions. In order to improve patient-physician interactions, medical students should be given opportunities to practice their skills with SPs who have been trained to portray patients with a specific condition in a realistic way.

최근, 가상현실(VR) 기술을 이용하여 다양한 산업 분야의 훈련 시스템을 제작하여 교육에 널리 활용하고 있다. 가상현실 기반 훈련 시스템은 안전할 뿐만 아니라 재료의 낭비도 없고, 언제 어디서든 실습을 해 볼 수가 있어서 여러 가지 장점이 있다. 예를 들면, 가상현실 용접 훈련 시뮬레이션 시스템은 몰입형 환경에서 철판 모재의 접합을 실제와 같이 수행할 수 있어서 현장 작업자 및 신입 교육 훈련에 널리 쓰이고 있다. 이 때 철판 모재 접합을 사실적으로 표현하는 것이 훈련의 효과를 극대화하기 위해 중요하지만 기존의 기술로는 접합의 효과를 자연스럽게 표현하기에는 한계가 있었다. 본 연구에서는 용접 훈련 시스템을 구축하기 위해 접합 효과를 쉐이더 기반으로 표현하는 방법을 경험 DB와 수학적 모델 기반으로 제시하고자 한다. 본 연구 논문의 결과를 용접 훈련 시스템에 적용하면 철판 모재의 접합 가시화를 사용자에게 정밀도 높게 제공하여 용접 훈련 효과를 보다 향상하는데 도움을 줄 수 있겠다.

Caisson-type structures are widely used as quay walls in coastal areas. In Korea, for a long time, many caisson-type quay walls have been constructed with a low front water depth. These facilities can no longer meet the requirements of current development. This study developed a new technology for deepening existing caisson-type quay walls using grouting and rubble mound excavation to economically reuse them. With this technology, quay walls could be renovated by injecting grout into the rubble mound beneath the front toe of the caisson to secure its structure. Subsequently, a portion of the rubble mound was excavated to increase the front water depth. This paper reports the results of an investigation of the seismic behavior of a renovated quay wall in comparison to that of an existing quay wall using centrifuge tests and numerical simulations. Two centrifuge model tests at a scale of 1/120 were conducted on the quay walls before and after renovation. During the experiments, the displacements, accelerations, and earth pressures were measured under five consecutive earthquake input motions with increasing magnitudes. In addition, systematic numerical analyses of the centrifuge model tests were also conducted with the PLAXIS 2D finite element (FE) program using a nonlinear elastoplastic constitutive model. The displacements of the caisson, response accelerations, deformed shape of the quay wall, and earth pressures were investigated in detail based on a comparison of the numerical and experimental results. The results demonstrated that the motion of the caisson changed after renovation, and its displacement decreased significantly. The comparison between the FE models and centrifuge test results showed good agreement. This indicated that renovation was technically feasible, and it could be considered to study further by testbed before applying in practice.

CT에서 대수적재구성기법은 잡음에 강점을 가지는 재구성기법으로 알려져 있다. 대수적재구성기법에서 반복 횟수는 계산 시간을 결정하는 중요한 인자 중의 하나이다. 그러나 반복 횟수에 대한 기준이 연구되어 있지만 수백 번 이상의 반복을 수행하게 되어 현실적으로 사용하기에는 무리가 있었다. 본 연구에서는 반복 횟수를 결정할 수 있는 현실적인 방법을 제시하였다. 반복 횟수에 따라 단면 영상의 품질이 천천히 개선된다는 것을 이용하였다. 반복 횟수를 절대치 평균 오차의 차이 𝜖 < 0.001 로 선택하였다. 잡음이 없는 경우는 Shepp-Logan 두부 팬텀을 이용하였고 잡음이 있는 경우는 Geant4를 이용하여 다양한 입사광자에 대해 360, 720, 1,440개의 투영을 얻었다. 정지 조건에서 10회 내외의 반복으로 우수한 단면 영상을 획득하였다. 수 백회 이상을 반복하는 최적 영상기반의 방법에 비해 현실적으로 적용 가능성이 높은 방법이 될 수 있을 것이다.

Pile composite foundation (PCF) has been commonly applied in practice. Existing research has focused primarily on semi-infinite media having equal pile lengths with little attention given to the effects of inclined bedrock and dissimilar pile lengths. This investigation considers the effects of inclined bedrock on vertical loaded PCF with dissimilar pile lengths. The pile-soil system is decomposed into fictitious piles and extended soil. The Fredholm integral equation about the axial force along fictitious piles is then established based on the compatibility of axial strain between fictitious piles and extended soil. Then, an iterative procedure is induced to calculate the PCF characteristics with a rigid cap. The results agree well with two field load tests of a single pile and numerical simulation case. The settlement and load transfer behaviors of dissimilar 3-pile PCFs and the effects of inclined bedrock are analyzed, which shows that the embedded depth of the inclined bedrock significantly affects the pile-soil load sharing ratios, non-dimensional vertical stiffness N₀/wdE_s, and differential settlement for different length-diameter ratios of the pile l/d and pile-soil stiffness ratio k conditions. The differential settlement and pile-soil load sharing ratios are also influenced by the inclined angle of the bedrock for different k and l/d. The developed model helps better understand the PCF characteristics over inclined bedrock under vertical loading.

The practice of identifying the potential zones for mineral exploration in a speedy and low-cost method includes the use of satellite imagery analysis as a part of remote sensing techniques. It is challenging to explore the iron mineralization of a region through conventional methods which are a time-consuming process. The current study utilizes the Hyperion satellite imagery for mapping the iron mineralization and associated geological features in the Irikkur region, Kannur, Kerala. Along with the remote sensing results, the field study and laboratory-based analysis were conducted to retrieve the ground truth point and geochemical proportion to verify the iron ore mineralization. The MC simulation showed for shielding properties indicate an increase in the linear attenuation coefficient with raising the Fe₂O₃+SiO₂ concentrations in the investigated rocks where it is varied at 0.662 MeV in the range 0.190 cm^-1 - 0.222 cm^-1 with rising the Fe₂O₃+SiO₂ content from 57.86 wt% to 71.15 wt%. The analysis also revealed that when the γ-ray energy increased from 0.221 MeV to 2.506 MeV, sample 1 had the largest linear attenuation coefficient, ranging from 9.33 cm1 to 0.12 cm^-1. Charnockite rocks were found to have exceptional shielding qualities, making them an excellent natural choice for radiation shielding applications.

The use of Hi-Tech in cultural heritage preservation and the promotion of cultural heritage values in general, particularly artifacts, opens new opportunities for attracting tourists while also posing a challenge due to the need to reward high-quality excursions to visitors historical and cultural values. Building Information Modeling (BIM) and Hi-Tech in new building management have been widely adopted in the construction industry; however, Historic Building Information Modeling (HBIM) is an exciting challenge in 3D modeling and building management. For those reasons, the Scan-to-HBIM approach involves generating an HBIM model for existing buildings from the point cloud data collected by Terrestrial 3D Laser Scanner integrated with Virtual Reality (VR), Augmented Reality (AR), contributes to spatial historic sites simulation for virtual experiences. Therefore, this study aims to (1) generate the application of Virtual Reality, Augmented Reality to Historic Building Information Modeling - based workflows in a case study which is a monument in the city; (2) evaluate the application of these technologies to improve awareness of visitors related to the promotion of historical values by surveying the experience before and after using this application. The findings shed light on the barriers that prevent users from utilizing technologies and problem-solving solutions. According to the survey results, after experiencing virtual tours through applications and video explanations, participant's perception of the case study improved. When combined with emerging Hi-Tech and immersive interactive games, the Historic Building Information Modeling helps increase information transmission to improve visitor awareness and promote heritage values.
