This study was done to determine the relationship between the anxiety levels of hospitalized psychiatric patients and various influencing variables. The purpose of this study was to determine factors that may help hospitalized psychiatric patients to experience lower levels of anxiety in relation to changing situations and provide the basic data for a dynamic approach which is important in the field of modern psychiatric nursing that understands and analyses the meaning of patients behavior. The anxiety may produce stress, which is a common experience among all human beings. Patients may merely feel uncomfortable in the state of mild anxiety, however, the severe state could be an obstacle to treatment and recovery from disease. The anxiety of the psychiatric patient is a factor which greatly influencing the patient's behavior, so his disorderd behavior is an expression of defence or pathologically fixed behavior. According the psychiatric patient's anxiety at the time of admission is the concern of the health team. The nurse's special concern has to do with understanding and supporting the patient and meeting his individual needs by frequent close contact during the entire hospitalization period, compared to other teamembers the nurse's responsibility in this regard is greated. So this study emphasizes the necessity of creating conditions these, but above all the psychiatric nurse should create a therapeutic environment by not only regarding the patient's behavior or symptoms but understanding the meaning of them. The subjects of this study were 57 psychiatric patients selected from the K neuropsychiatric hospital located in Kunsan city. Data were collected twice from the same patients within a 24 hour period after admission and 10 days after admission. (September 18th to November 8th, 1980). The data collected method was through direct interview, and the interview time was 20 minutes for each patient. Data analysis included Item Analysis & Internal Consistency Reliability Tests, Percentages, t-test, analysis of variance and stepwise multiple regression analysis. The findings of this study were as follows. A. Test of Hypothesis a. Hypothesis 1 :“The anxiety level of psychiatric patients within 24 hours after admission will be higher than those of the same patients 10 days after admission,”was accepted. (t = 3. 15 ; p < 0.005) b. Hypothesi 2:“The more the number of admissions the higher the level of anxiety related to two categories”, was accepted.

국내 절토비탈면은 이상 기후 및 건설공사의 증대로 인해 증가하고 있는 추세이며 장마철 및 태풍으로 인해 비탈면의 붕괴로 많은 인명 및 재산피해가 발생되고 있는 실정이다. 국내에서 사용되고 있는 기존의 비탈면의 설계기준은 암반의 불연속면에 대한 조사를 실시하고는 있지만 주로 암반의 굴착난이도를 토층, 리핑암, 발파암으로 구분하여 각각의 비탈면 절취경사를 결정하여 사용하는 방법을 사용하였으며 이러한 기준은 단순히 암석의 강도를 기준으로 설정되어 있으므로 암석의 공학적 특성 즉, 암반내 불연속면 방향성, 연속성, 충진물질, 마찰각, 풍화속도 등의 영향으로 공용후 비탈면 구배의 재조정 및 보강이 빈번하다. 국내외 절토비탈면의 설계기준은 각 기관별로 산재되어 있었으며 비탈면에 대한 설계 및 시공 등에 관한 기준은 도로와 철도 설계기준에 일부 반영되어 있을 뿐 항만, 댐, 택지조성 등 기타 시설 설계기준에는 비탈면에 대한 기준이 마련되어 있지 않아 표준적인 비탈면 설계기준 및 유지관리지침이 등이 필요하였다. 이러한 문제점을 보완하기 위해 2004년부터 2006까지 한국시설안전공단, 한국도로공사, 대한주택공사가 협동으로 연구한 건설공사 비탈면 설계 시공 및 유지관리에 관한 연구의 결과로 2006년도에 "건설공사 비탈면 설계기준"이 수립되었다. 이 설계기준은 건설공사에서의 기존 상이한 기준들을 정리하고 동일화하는 작업을 수행하였으며 지반의 조사에서부터 대책공까지를 막나하여 정리하였다. 그러나 최근에 급격한 기후변화로 인한 비탈면붕괴 빈번함에 따라 과거 적용되어 왔던 이들 기준을 적용하는 경우, 특히 상부 토층 및 풍화암 구간에서 많은 설계안전율을 만족하지 못해 많은 보강을 수반해야 하는 문제가 발생되고 있어 그 원인에 대한 분석을 수행하고자 하였다. 2006년도 정리된 기준은 과거에 적용하여 온 유기시의 안전율 조건을 Fs > 1.1~1.2을 적용하였던 것을 Fs > 1.2로 통일하였으며 지하수위 조건은 지표면에 위치하도록 하였다. 지하수위 조건은 풍화암 및 토층의 경우, 과거 지표면에 -3m를 적용한 시기가 있었으나 지표면에 지하수위를 적용하는 것이 일반적인 해석방법이다. 이러한 결과의 원인을 검토해 보면 다음과 같다. 첫째, 풍화암 및 토층에 적용되어 온 지반강도 정수가 과거 적용한 값보다 최근에는 작아지는 경향을 보이고 있다. 둘째, 지하수위 적용문제로 현재 지표면에 지하수위를 두어 안전율을 감소시키는 문제로 이는 최근 들어 많은 연구기관에서 강우시 간극수압의 증가에 대한 연구가 활발하게 진행되고 있다. 그러나 침투수 해석은 현행 기준에도 강우의 침투를 고려한 해석을 실시하는 경우 FS > 1.3 적용하는 것으로 되어 있으나 대부분의 해석에서는 적용이 되지 못하고 있는 실정이다. 셋째, 안전율이 과거에 주로 적용된 Fs > 1.1에서 Fs > 1.2로 상향 조정되어 우기시의 설계안전율 만족시키지 못하는 문제이다. 그러므로 이러한 문제점을 개선하기 위한 검토가 필요하며 장기적으로 이에 대한 합리적인 기준을 개정하는 작업이 추후에 수행되어야 할 것으로 판단된다.

While the existing Web focuses on the interface with human users based on HTML, the next generation Web will focus on the interaction among software agents by using XML and XML-based standards and technologies. The inference engine, which will serve as brains of software agents in the next generation Web, should thoroughly understand the Semantic Web, the standard language of the next generation Web. As abasis for the service, the W3C (World Wide Web Consortium) has recommended SWRL (Semantic Web Rule Language) which had been made by compounding OWL (Web Ontology Language) and RuleML (Rule Markup Language). In this research, we develop a backward chaining inference engine SMART-B (SeMantic web Agent Reasoning Tools -Backward chaining inference engine), which uses SWRL and OWL to represent rules and facts respectively. We analyze the requirements for the SWRL-based backward chaining inference and design analgorithm for the backward chaining inference which reflects the traditional backward chaining inference algorithm and the requirements of the next generation Semantic Web. We also implement the backward chaining inference engine and the administrative tools for fact and rule bases into Java components to insure the independence and portability among different platforms under the environment of Ubiquitous Computing.

Concentrated water discharged from seawater desalination process contains a high concentration of $Na^+$ ion. Electrolysis was applied to synthesize NaOH solution from the highly concentrated NaCl solution. The effect of various operating parameters of composited laboratory-scale chlor-alkali (CA) membrane cell was investigated. The operating parameters such as membrane types (CIMS and Nafion membranes), pretreatment of the membrane, flow rate (73 mL/min~200 mL/min), initial $Na^+$ ion concentration (1.5 M, 3M and 5 M) and current (1.5A and 2A) were evaluated. It was observed that synthesis efficiency of NaOH solution with CIMS membrane was higher than that with Nafion membrane, but the durability of CIMS membrane on $Cl_2$ gas was poor. The synthesis efficiency of NaOH solution increased with increasing initial $Na^+$ ion concentration and current, while the efficiency decreased with increasing flow rate using Nafion membrane.

Daejeon Metropolitan City has the best innovation capability infrastructure (ICT) required for the 4th industry. Nevertheless, there are scattered factors that hinder the industrial ecosystem. In this study, the factor of job creation was approached from the viewpoint of organizational ecology in consideration of regional characteristics during the 4th Industrial Revolution.That is, the case of job creation through overseas ICT-based clusters (or cities) was examined. Then, the factors of organizational ecology, 'niche', 'variation', 'selection', and 'retention' were derived. Through this process, we explored the environment surrounding Daejeon Metropolitan City and benchmarked lessons from existing overseas cluster cases. As a result, we discover the 'niche' of ICT-based job creation and suggest strategies for the 'variation' process to survive in the ecosystem and how to be 'retention' in the ecosystem. n conclusion, the strategy of the organizational ecological approach to establish itself as a metropolitan city as the strength of Daejeon city and the 'innovation hub' that is evident, such as '4th Industrial Revolution City', 'Innovation City Designation', and 'Secure Excellent Capability of SW' Insist on need. Through this study, we hope that there will be a theoretical contribution to the prior research lacking from original research such as the scarcity of ICT-based job creation research in response to the era of the fourth industrial revolution, recognition of the importance of the region in job creation, and presentation of an organizational ecological approach of sustainable clusters.

Defense M&S for weapons effectiveness is a realistic way to support virtual warfare similar to real warfare. As the war paradigm becomes platform-centric to network-centric, people try to utilize smartphones as the source of sensor, and command/control data in the simulation-based weapons effectiveness analysis. However, there have been limited researches on integrating smartphones into the weapon simulators, partly due to high modeling cost - modeling cost to accomodate client-server architecture, and re-engineering cost to adapt the simulator on various devices and platforms -, lack of efficient mechanisms to exchange large amount of simulation data, and low-level of security. In this paper, we design and implement Smartphone Adaptor to utilize smartphones for the simulationbased weapons effectiveness analysis. Smartphone Adaptor automatically sends sensor information, GPS and motion data of a client's smartphone to a simulator and receives simulation results from the simulator on the server. Also, we make it possible for data to be transferred safely and quickly through JSON and SEED. Smartphone Adaptor is applied to OpenSIM (Open simulation engine for Interoperable Models) which is an integrated simulation environment for weapons effectiveness analysis, under development of our research team. In this paper, we will show Smartphone Adaptor can be used effectively in constructing a Live simulation, with an example of a chemical simulator.

Furan-containing epoxide monomers (8, 9) were designed and synthesized as carbon-neutral, environment-friendly adhesion material. Bicyclic skeleton were constructed using the Diels-Alder reaction of furan and methyl acrylate, both readily accessible starting material from a biomass via bio-refinery process. After reduction of ester functionality, resulting hydroxyl moieties were coupled to epichlorohydrin to provide the epoxy-functionalized furanic monomers (8, 9). The structure of new furanic monomers was confirmed by $^1H$ and $^{13}C$ NMR spectroscopy. As UV-curable monomers, basic properties such as UV curing time and the extent of UV curing were evaluated by photo DSC. Photo-curing shrinkages were measured by linear variable differential transformer transducer (LVDT) and the effect of molecular structure on shrinkage was considered. In addition, new synthetic compounds showed the shear strength over 3 MPa when they were photo-cured between polycarbonate plates, which indicates these compounds are feasible to use as photo-curable adhesive materials.

Almost all companies have paid much attention to the safety management ranging from maintenance to operation even at the stage of designing in order to prevent accidents, but fatal accidents continue to increase throughout the world. In particular, it is essential to systematically prevent such fatal accidents as fire, explosion or leakage of toxic gas at factories in order to not only protect the workers and neighbors but also prevent economic losses and environmental pollution. Though it is well known that accident probability is very low in NPP(Nuclear Power Plants), the reason why many researches are still being performed about the accidents is the results may be so severe. HRA is the main process to make preparation for possibility of human error in designing of the NPP. But those techniques have some problems and limitation as follows; the evaluation sensitivity of those techniques are out of date. And the evaluation of human error is not coupled with the design process. Additionally, the scope of the human error which has to be included in reliability assessment should be expanded. This work focuses on the coincidence of human error and mechanical failure for some important performance shaping factors to propose a method for improving safety effectively of the process industries. In order to apply in these purposes into the thesis, I found 63 critical Performance Shaping Factors of the eight dimensions throughout studies that I executed earlier. In this study, various analysis of opinion of specialists(Personal Factors, Training, Knowledge or Experience, Procedures and Documentation, Information, Communications, HMI, Workplace Design, Quality of Environment, Team Factors) and the guideline for construction of PSF were accomplished. The selected method was AHP which simplifies objective conclusions by maintaining consistency. This research focused on the implementation process of PSF to evaluate the process of PSF at each phase. As a result, we propose an evaluation model of PSF as a tool to find critical problem at each phase and improve on how to resolve the problems found at each phase. This evaluation model makes it possible to extraction of PSF succesfully by presenting the basis of assessment which will be used by enterprises to minimize the trial and error of construction process of PSF.

Naegleria fowleri and Acanthamoeba spp. are free-living amoebas that are widely distributed in natural environments. Although uncommon, infection with these protozoans can cause fatal disease in humans and animals. In this study, in order to select the appropriate method to survey Naegleria fowleri and Acanthamoeba spp. in water samples, four molecular biology techniques and one commercially available kit for real-time PCR were compared. The results indicated that the duplex real-time PCR was the most sensitive, and could be used to simultaneously detect two different free-living amoebas. Using the duplex real-time PCR approach, the two free-living amoebas were surveyed in three local streams in Daejeon, Republic of Korea. The concentrated free-living amoebas were inoculated onto non-nutrient agar plates which had been spread with heat-inactivated Escherichia coli and incubated for 5~7 days. After incubation, gDNA was extracted and used as the template for amplification by duplex real-time PCR. Acanthamoeba spp. and N. fowleri was detected from ten (83.3%) and two (16.6%) of the twelve samples, respectively. As these two free-living amoebas can be fatal, continuous surveillance is needed to track their distribution in the aquatic environment for the drinking water safety.
