  • A person is injured in car accident caused by his/her slight negligence except he / she causes accident by his / her willfulness or gross negligence. Because the National Health Insurance Corporation (hereinafter called "Corporation") shall not provide any insurance benefit "when he has intentionally or through gross negligence caused a criminal conduct or intentionally contributed to the occurrence of an accident" referred to in Article 48 (1) 1 of the National Health Insurance Act. So, if he / she is insured by his / her own bodily injury coverage, he / she can be compensated for his / her medical expenses. The injured have the rights to file either National Health Insurance claim and Automobile Insurance claim but there is no clear and definite adjustment clause. The claim disputes between National Health Insurance (hereinafter called "NHI") and Automobile Insurance (hereinafter called "AI") in the own bodily injury coverage makes some problems. Firstly, there are some differences in co-payments which he / she chooses between NHI and AI. Profit per a patient is higher in the NHI than in the AI. Secondly, it can provoke criticism that people shall unnecessarily pay double contributions. Lastly, it can raise moral hazards. For example, if he / she can cover the compensations when the insured receives the compensations from his / her insurer, the Corporation can be claimed by medical care institution payment of the health care benefit costs. In conclusion, first of all, to improve the national health and preserve the insured's rights the Corporation shall keep notice these facts.

  • There are many fish farms being cultivated in the southwestern cost of South Korea. Because the farms cultivating use the basic method that inflow and circulate sea-water, slight negligence and bad design cause major negative impact on fish deaths. Also, the optimal temperature for each specie of fishes has already been proven to differ on each specie. Maintaining this environment, regardless of seasons, is very difficult and that requires research to develop. In this paper, basic characteristics of heat and mechanism of heat transfer are studied. Based on this, Open-end water vessel is designed and constructed using sandwich-insulation panels and simulated to store the heat in certain isolated space. This study confirmed that it is possible to keep constant temperature by this method, in large areas of water where it is insulated by heat insulator. and equipped with heater in Open-end water vessel where the other part is heated. The AC power controller maintains the constant temperature required and the temperature controller detects and displays the temperature by using the micro-processor.
