The methods and performance of a 3D pin-by-pin neutronics code based on the 2D/1D decoupling method are presented. The code was newly developed as an effort to achieve enhanced accuracy and high calculation performance that are sufficient for the use in practical nuclear design analyses. From the 3D diffusion-based finite difference method (FDM) formulation, decoupled planar formulations are established by treating pre-determined axial leakage as a source term. The decoupled axial problems are formulated with the radial leakage source term. To accelerate the pin-by-pin calculation, the two-level coarse mesh finite difference (CMFD) formulation, which consists of the multigroup node-wise CMFD and the two-group assembly-wise CMFD is implemented. To enhance the accuracy, both the discontinuity factor method and the super-homogenization (SPH) factor method are examined for pin-wise cross-section homogenization. The parallelization is achieved with the OpenMP package. The accuracy and performance of the pin-by-pin calculations are assessed with the VERA and APR1400 benchmark problems. It is demonstrated that pin-by-pin 2D/1D alternating calculations within the two-level 3D CMFD framework yield accurate solutions in about 30 s for the typical commercial core problems, on a parallel platform employing 32 threads.

본 논문에서는 퍼지이론을 주식, 선물 등의 거래 시스템에 적용 분석해 보고 그 결과를 토대로 파라볼릭 SAR 지표의 성능개선에 적용할 수 있는 가능성을 제기하였다. 실제의 선물 데이터에 적용한 결과 기존의 파라볼릭 SAR 지표보다는 제안된 퍼지 SAR 지표가 매매횟수와 거짓신호를 적게 발생시키는 것을 확인할 수 있었다. 기존의 파라볼릭 SAR에서는 가속증분을 0.02로, 가속변수의 최대값을 0.2로 고정하는 것이 보통이나, 제안한 퍼지 SAR에서는 가속증분과 가속변수의 최대값이 퍼지규칙을 기반으로 조절되도록 하였다. 매매전문가의 경험적 지식을 단기 이평선과 중기 이평선 사이의 이격과 단기 이평선의 기울기를 기반으로 퍼지 규칙화하여 사용하므로, 퍼지 SAR의 가속증분과 가속변수의 최대값이 진행추세에 종속하여 조절된다.

본 연구는 한국, 미국, 및 일본간의 상호무역에서 요소가격균등화가 성립되는가를 ARDL모형에 의한 bounds test로 분석하여 요소가격균등화(factor price equalization, FPE)의 동일성(equality)과 수렴성(convergence)을 검정하려는 시도이다. 실증분석결과에 의하면 국제화가 심화됨에 따라 국가간 무역에서 시현될 가능성이 높아진 요소가격균등화는 무역규모에 있어서 상대적으로 대국인 미국이나 일본보다는 한국과 같은 소국에서 나타나며, 실질변수 보다는 명목변수를 통한 조정과정이 용이한 것으로 분석되었다. 그리고 국가간에 노동이나 자본과 같은 생산요소가 직접적으로 이동하는 단기적인 효과가 요소가격균등화에 미치는 영향은 미미한 것으로 분석되어 요소가격균등화가 장기적인 경제현상임을 알 수 있다. 따라서 우리나라의 경우 교역비중이 높은 미국, 일본, 중국, 및 EU 등과의 무역정책과 기타 국가와의 무역정책은 선별적으로 수립해야 하고, 또한 보다 장기적인 차원에서 시행하여야 할 것이다.

The main purpose of this study is to develop a ratio scale measuring level of pain using Korean pain terms. The specific purposes of this study are to identify the degree of pain of each pain term in each subclass: to classify each subclass in terms of dimensions of pain; and to analyze factors of the Korean pain ratio scale clustering together. One hundred an4 fifty eight pain terms which were originally identified as representative terms and their synonyms were used for data collection. Fifty eight nursing professors ana sixty one medical doctors who have contacted with patients having pain were asked to rate the weight of each pain term on a visual analogue scale. Subclasses in which ranks of pain terms were same f s findings in two previous studies were 1) thermal 3 am 2) cavity pressure, 3) single stimulating pain, 4) radiation pain. and 5) chemical pain. Subclasses in which ranks of pain terms were confused were 1) incisive pressure, and 2) cold pain. Subclasses in which one new pain term was added were 1) inflammatory-repeated pain, 2) punctuate pressure, 3) constrictive pressure, 4) fatigue-related pressure, and 5) suffering-relate4 pain. Subclasses in which two new pain terms were added were 1) traction pressure, 2) peripheral nerve pain, 3) dull pain, 4) pulsation-related pain, 5) digestion-related pain, 6) tract pain, and 7) punishment-related pain. Subclass in which 3 new pain terms were included was fear-related pain. Rating scores of 5 words in 4 subclasses were significantly different between the normal group and the extreme group of subjects in terms of subjective rating. Only one word among 6 words was that newly added to the scale. Rating scores of 12 words in 9 subclasses were significantly different between doctor group and nursing professor group. Among these 12 words, only 3 were those newly added to the scale. In comparison of these 12 words, mean scores of the nursing professors were always 7 to 16 points higher than those of the medical doctors. In the analysis of judgement of subjects in terms of dimensions of pain terms, subclasses of dull pain, cavity pressure, tract pain and cold pain were suggested to be included in the miscellaneous dimension. As a result of factor analysis of the ratings given to 96 pain words using principal components analysis without iteration and with varimax rotation limiting the number of factors to 4, factors of severe pain (factor I) mild-moderate pain (factor II) , causative pain (factor III) and temperature-related pain(factor IV) were extracted with the factor loading above 0.388. When the pain words were re-arranged on the bases of factor loading above 0.368, number of factors decreased to only first two factors. Maximum score of pain word in factor II was 46.17 and the minimum score of the factor I was 45.36. Further studies are needed to identify the validity, reliability, sensitivity and practicability of this ratio scale using patients having various sources of pain.

In Korea, delivery of preterm has increased gradually, preterm delivery rate was 6.4% in 1995 and 9.8% in 2002. The purpose of this study is to provide guidelines for preventing preterm delivery in aspect of health factors and food habits. The health factors and dietary habits were compared between preterm delivery group and full-term delivery group on to recognize risk factor of delivering premature. The results obtained are summarized as follows. The full-term delivery group showed a high rate of professionals and the preterm delivery group showed a high rate of the service industry, showing differences in kinds of occupation(p<0.05). Heights were higher in full-term delivery group(p<0.05). Among the nutrition supplements, iron supplement consumption was the most, period of the intake of iron was significantly longer for the full-term delivery group than for the preterm delivery group(p<0.05). Also, prevalence of coffee was higher in preterm delivery group(p<0.001). The activity level was higher in full-term delivery group(p<0.005).

본고에서는 3요인 무재정거래(3-factor no arbitrage) 조건하에서의 이자율 기간 구조를 추정하고 이를 이용하여 기간프리미엄의 추이 및 정책금리 변경의 유효성을 분석하였다. 기간프리미엄의 경우 3년물에서 높게 나타나고 있는데, 이는 장기적인 경제 상황보다 향후 3년 정도의 시계에서 경제의 불확실성이 높을 것이라는 투자자들의 인식을 반영한 것으로 해석된다. 한편, 최근 기준 지표금리의 변경에 따른 통화정책의 효과성을 살펴보기 위해 지표금리 변경시점을 전후로 하여 금융시장에서의 단기금리 변경이 채권시장의 수익률곡선의 형태에 미치는 효과를 분석해 보았다. 분석 결과, 금융시장에서의 대표적인 단기금리인 콜금리와 채권시장에서의 단기금리인 초단기이자율 간의 괴리가 지표금리 변경 이전과 비교하여 크게 확대된 점을 발견할 수 있었다. 이러한 괴리 확대가 새로운 기준금리에 대한 운용겸험 미숙에 연유한 것인지, 최근의 국제금융시장 불안에 따른 예외적인 경우인지는 현 단계에서는 명확히 결론짓기 어려우나 통화정책의 유효성을 제고하기 위해서는 이러한 괴리를 축소하는 통화정책 운용이 필요할 것이다.

A computing method of fractional Bayes factor (FBF) for a point null hypothesis is explained. We propose alternative form of FBF that is the product of density ratio and a quantity using the generalized Savage-Dickey density ratio method. When it is difficult to compute the alternative form of FBF analytically, each term of the proposed form can be estimated by MCMC method. Finally, two examples are given.

본 논문의 연구목적은 국내 회사채시장에서 시장전체의 체계적 위험 (systematic risk)과 각각의 고유위험(idiosyncratic risk)이 회사채 수익률에 미치는 영향을 분석하고자 한다. 2001년부터 2014년까지 채권시장의 자료를 분석하기 위해, 본 연구는 체계적 위험의 대용변수로 기존의 연구에서 사용된 회사채수익률 기간구조 요인(term factor)과 지급불능 요인(default factor) 등을 사용하고, 고유위험의 대용변수로 듀레이션(duration)과 신용평가등급 요인을 선정하였다. 이러한 요인들이 채권의 수익률에 미치는 영향력을 횡단면 회귀분석을 통해 분석한 결과, 체계적 위험과 관련된 요인들은 통계적 설명력이 있는 것으로 나타났다. 반면에 회사채 고유위험과 관련된 요인들은 기존의 국내 연구와 달리 회사채 수익률을 통계적으로 설명하지 못하는 것으로 나타났다. 이러한 결과는 본 연구의 분석기간이 기존 연구의 7년 자료보다 긴 14년간의 자료를 사용하고 최근의 기간까지 확장했다는 점 때문에, 오히려 미국의 연구결과와 유사한 것으로 나타났다. 이는 우리나라 채권시장이 IMF사태 이후 국제화가 확대되어 선진국과 동조현상을 보이는 것으로 해석된다. 따라서 본 연구는 국내 채권투자시장에서도 선진국의 경우와 마찬가지로 개별 채권의 특성보다는 채권시장 전체의 위험에 보다 더 집중해서 투자할 필요가 있다는 점을 제시하고 있다.

The purpose of this study was to investigate the Effective X-Factor in golf swing. The term X-Factor means the relative rotation of shoulders with respect to hips during the golf swing. To ascertain the Effective X-Factor that resulted in a high club head speed at impact six golfers' swing motions were videotaped and analyzed using three-dimensional techniques. The results can be summarized as follows. The standard deviations of the professionals' average club head speeds were higher than the amateurs'. This means that the professionals' swing skills were better than amateurs' in driving accuracy and consistency. As the club head speeds were increased gradually the X-Factors and the club head speeds had reached to the subjects' average club head speeds, but the X-Factors and the club head speeds were not increased above the subjects' average club head speeds. The X-Factor Stretch early in the down swing was existed and Professional stretched values were higher than the amateurs. In conclusion my research results suggested that the increase in Effective X-Factors had no relationship to the increase in club head speeds.
