  • This paper aims to provide some unique insights into the verification of organisational innovation diffusion through empirically identifying the major factors determining the level of organisational innovation diffusion. The paper presents a two-stage sequential mixed method analysis: structural equation modelling analysis and regression analysis. A questionnaire survey was administrated to a sample of 223 organisations operating in Saudi Arabia. The results suggest that participative culture and, technology availability and implementation would intensify organisational climate for innovation. The results revealed compelling evidence in support of the moderating role of technology on the relationship between country socio-culture and organisational climate for innovation. Equally important, organisational innovation characteristics could play a crucial role in the intention to adopt a particular innovation. Specifically, maintaining Saudi Arabian top management's status quo is an obstacle to organisational innovation diffusion. This paper expands and improves upon the current understanding of how organisational innovation diffusion, in particular the Project Management Office (PMO), can be accelerated. By focusing on the critical factors within the conceptual model, the paper depicts the crucial role of certain factors that could leverage improved organisational innovation diffusion outcomes.

  • The cosmetic medical information mobile platform is evolving into a new channel for searching and obtaining relevant information before using cosmetic medical service. In addition, the medical institutions can facilitate the medical contracts, and take advantage of systemic customer management through the cosmetic medical information mobile platform. Therefore, the paradigm of the cosmetic medical mobile service industry is facing a flow of change through the use diffusion of cosmetic medical information mobile platform. In this study, in order to explore the factors affecting the use diffusion of the cosmetic medical information mobile platform, this study used the research model of the influence of the characteristics of the cosmetic medical information mobile platform on perceived convenience and usefulness, and use diffusion by applying TAM(Technology Acceptance Model). As a result, immediateness, interactivity, and customization in the characteristics of cosmetic medical information mobile platform had positive effects on the perceived convenience. Also, interactivity, customization, and economics had positive impacts on perceived usefulness. In addition, perceived convenience and usefulness had positive effects on the use diffusion. Through this study, the factors influencing the use diffusion of cosmetic medical information mobile platform were actually explored, and the service value of the cosmetic medical information mobile platform were categorized. Future research is expected to contribute to the continuous improvement of quality and expansion of the cosmetic medical service market based on various research.

  • Mass transport near grain boundary in a magnetite bi-crystal has been estimated at 823 K by finite element method. Mass transport near grain boundary strongly depends on the diffusivities along grain boundary. If grain boundary diffusion has the same oxygen activity dependence as lattice diffusion, there is no mass transport between grains and grain boundary. On the other hand, mass transport between grains and grain boundary is observed in the case that grain boundary diffusion has different oxygen activity dependence.

  • Three kinds of specimens(radiata pine sapwood, radiata pine heartwood and whemlock heartwood) were dried at four temperature levels (30, 40, 50 and $60^{\circ}C$) in an emvironmental chamber. Unsteady-state diffusion coefficients were calculated from obtained drying fates by using infinite slab equation for first half of sorption and interval diffusion equation for second half of sorption. Activation energies for moisture diffusion in wood were calculated from the diffusion coefficients obtained at four temperatures. In most cases diffusion coefficients for radial movement were higher than those for tangential movement. Activation energy differences between sapwood and heartwood weren't significant for radial movement, but were significant for tangential movement. Most activation energies calculated from drying rates were lower than heat of water condensation(about 11,000cal/mole). Specially the avenge activation energy for sapwood tangential movement was only 5,000cal/mole.

  • The objective of this study is to evaluate the diffusion behavior of Al and Si from a coatings in the microstucture of Fe-Si steel. Steel samples deposited with Al-Si alloy are prepared by ion plating process, followed by annealing treatments for diffusion at $1050^{\circ}C$. Several intermetallic phases are found in the coatings and they are identified as Fe-Al and an orderd Fe-Si compounds. Series of different concentration profiles through the sample have been obtained and Si content reaches about 5 wt% in case of 90 minutes of diffusion time.

  • Carbonation is a widespread degradation of concrete and may be coupled with more severe degradations. An experimental investigation was carried out to study the effect of carbonation on chloride ion diffusion of concrete. The characteristic of concrete after carbonation was measured, such as carbonation depth, strength and pore structure. Results indicated that carbonation depth has a good linear relation with square root of carbonate time, and carbonation can improve compressive strength, but lower flexural strength. Results about pore structure of concrete before and after carbonation have shown that carbonation could cause a redistribution of the pore sizes and increase the proportion of small pores. It also can decrease porosities, most probable pore size and average pore diameters. Chloride ion diffusion of concrete after carbonation was studied through natural diffusion method and steady state migration testing method respectively. It is supposed that the chloride ion concentration of carbonation region is higher than that of the sound region because of the separation of fixed salts, and chloride ion diffusion coefficient was increased due to carbonation action evidently.

  • 최근 다양한 기술분야에서 가속화되고 있는 기술융합은 서로 다른 기술간 지식의 교환을 통해 새로운 기술을 발견하고 이를 기존 기술 영역에 활용함으로써 이루어진다. 특히 지식집약적 기술인 정보통신기술의 경우 기술융합이 활발하게 이루어지고 있으나, 정보통신기술의 지식 확산 경로를 살펴보기 위한 데이터의 부족으로 현재까지 관련 연구가 부족한 상황이다. 따라서 본 연구에서는 한국의 2006년부터 2013년까지 출원된 특허 데이터와 그들의 선행특허들간의 인용관계에 대한 데이터베이스를 구축하고, 이를 통해 특허 인용 네트워크, 기술 인용 네트워크, 출원인 인용 네트워크를 도출함으로써 기술의 지식 확산 경로에 대한 다양한 분석을 실시하였다. 분석결과, 첫째, 기술간 지식 인용에 있어 정보통신기술이 주요한 역할을 수행함을 확인하였으며, 기술인용이 빈번하게 이루어지는 기술관계일수록, 정보통신기술간의 인용일수록 기술 인용에 소요되는 기간이 짧아짐을 확인하였다. 둘째, 대부분 정보통신기술은 다른 정보통신기술 혹은 물리학과 전기분야 기술과의 인용 피인용 관계가 강한 반면, 기본적 전기소자(H01)의 경우, 정보통신기술 이외의 기술과 다양한 인용 피인용 관계를 가지는 것으로 나타났다. 셋째, 국내법인과 국내자연인간의 상호 기술확산이 강하게 이루어지는 것으로 나타났으며, 국내법인의 특허는 타출원인에 의해 활발히 인용되고 있는 것으로 나타났다. 본 연구를 통해 현재 한국의 기술지식 확산경로에 대한 고찰이 가능할 뿐만 아니라, 기술의 성과 측정에서도 유용하게 활용될 수 있을 것으로 기대된다.

  • During the decommissioning of the nuclear facilities, the radioactive gases in pressure vessels may leak due to the demolition operations. The decommissioning site has large space, slow air circulation, and many large nuclear facilities, which increase the difficulty of workers' inhalation exposure assessment. In order to dynamically evaluate the activity distribution of radionuclides and the committed effective dose from inhalation in nuclear decommissioning environment, an inhalation exposure assessment method based on the modified eddy-diffusion model and the inhaled dose conversion factor is proposed in this paper. The method takes into account the influence of building, facilities, exhaust ducts, etc. on the distribution of radioactive gases, and can evaluate the influence of radioactive gases diffusion on workers during the decommissioning of nuclear facilities.

  • The diffusion cell method is the main technique employed for the in vitro diffusion test of transdermal drug delivery preparations. Most existing transdermal diffusion devices use a water bath heating structure and direct current motor magnetic stirrer. However, these devices are confronted with problems, such as large volume, incompatible vertical and horizontal diffusion cells, few diffusion cell sets, and poor reliability. To overcome these deficiencies, the system adopts a dry heating method and uses a rotating magnetic field generated by the electromagnetic stirrer to drive the magnetic stirrer. Accordingly, the resulting device is characterized by a simple structure and small volume, convenient operation, compatible vertical and horizontal diffusion cells, and numerous diffusion cell sets. The reliability and practicability of the system is verified by the in vitro percutaneous permeability test of the bisoprolol patch.
