This study aims to investigate the effects of the microstructures and nodule type on the fatigue characteristics of cast iron. Fatigue tests were carried out in tension-tension mode using a servo-hydraulic testing machine with load control mode operating at a frequency of 15 Hz. The tests were conducted at stress ratio R=Kmin/Kmax, of 0.1. Initial crack ${\Dalta}K$ values were highly performed with increase in tensile strength of DCI fatigue specimens. ${\Dalta}K_{th}$ region, fatigue crack propagation was primarily advanced through cell boundary and in periphery of near nodule. Fatigue crack propagation rate of D2 consisted with 2Phase(Ferrite+Pearlite) was slow due to crack closure enhanced by crack deflection and occurred crack branching. The generation of crack branch was occurred due to interaction of crack-nodule. At Threshold and Paris zone, the fractographs of the fatigue fracture surface for DCI show typical striations of a ductile fracture and isolated cleavage planes near graphite. The effect of microstructure on fatigue crack propagation of GC strongly depends on the type of flake. The generation of crack branch occurred due to interaction of crack-nodule. The fractographs of the fatigue fracture surface for GC show cleavage plane along the flake graphite.

This study aims to introduce the structure of the impact-based heat health warning system on 165 counties in South Korea developed by the National Institute of Meteorological Sciences. This system was developed using the daily maximum perceived temperature (PTmax), which is a human physiology-based thermal comfort index, and the Local ENSemble prediction system for the probability forecasts. Also, A risk matrix proposed by the World Meteorological Organization was employed for the impact-based forecasts of this system. The threshold value of the risk matrix was separately set depending on regions. In this system, the risk level was issued as four levels (GREEN, YELLOW, ORANGE, RED) for first, second, and third forecast lead-day (LD1, LD2, and LD3). The daily risk level issued by the system was evaluated using emergency heat-related patients obtained at six cities, including Seoul, Incheon, Daejeon, Gwangju, Daegu, and Busan, for LD1 to LD3. The high-risks level occurred more consistently in the shorter lead time (LD3 → LD1) and the performance (r_s) was increased from 0.42 (LD3) to 0.45 (LD1) in all cities. Especially, it showed good performance (r_s = 0.51) in July and August, when heat stress is highest in South Korea. From an impact-based forecasting perspective, PTmax is one of the most suitable temperature indicators for issuing the health risk warnings by heat in South Korea.

Objectives: The purpose of this study is to evaluate the tire manufacturing work environments extensively and to identify workers' exposure to hazardous substances in various work processes. Methods: Personal air sampling was conducted to measure polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons, carbon disulfide, 1,3-butadiene, styrene, methyl isobutyl ketone, methylcyclohexane, formaldehyde, sulfur dioxide, and rubber fume in tire manufacturing plants using the National Institute for Occupational Safety Health Manual of Analytical Methods. Noise, carbon monoxide, and heat stress exposure were evaluated using direct reading instruments. Past concentrations of rubber fume were assessed using regression analysis of total particulate data from 2003 to 2007, after identifying the correlation between the concentration of total particulate and rubber fume. Results: Workers were exposed to rubber fume that exceeded 0.6 mg/$m^3$, the maximum exposure limit of the UK, in curing and production management processes. Forty-seven percent of workers were exposed to noise levels exceeding 85 dBA. Workers in the production management process were exposed to $28.1^{\circ}C$ (wet bulb globe temperature value, WBGT value) even when the outdoor atmosphere was $2.7^{\circ}C$ (WBGT value). Exposures to other substances were below the limit of detection or under a tenth of the threshold limit values given by the American Conference of Governmental Industrial Hygienists. Conclusion: To better classify exposure groups and to improve work environments, examining closely at rubber fume components and temperature as risk indicators in tire manufacturing is recommended.

전기 전도성을 갖는 발포체를 개발하기 위해 고내상 에멀젼(HIPE) 중합법으로 폴리스티렌(PS)/폴리도파민-탄소나노튜브(PDA-CNT) 미세기공 발포체를 제조하여 발포체의 모폴로지 및 전기 전도도를 고찰하였다. 전도성을 부여하기 위한 나노충전제로 CNT를 사용하였는데 수분산성과 HIPE의 안정성을 향상시키기 위하여 CNT 표면을 친수성인 PDA로 개질한 PDA-CNT를 사용하였다. PDA-CNT는 분산성이 우수하여 첨가량을 높여 HIPE를 구성할 수 있었고 전도성이 향상된 발포체를 제조할 수 있었다. 제조한 미세기공 발포체는 기공이 상호 연결된 구조의 모폴로지를 보여 주었다. PDA-CNT의 함량 증가에 따라 HIPE의 항복응력 및 저장 탄성률은 증가하였고 제조된 발포체의 기공 크기는 작아졌다. 전기적 임계점을 보여주는 PDA-CNT 함량은 대략 0.58 wt%였고 PDA-CNT 함량을 5 wt% 첨가했을 때의 전기 전도도는 $10^{-3}S/m$를 나타내었다.

The objective of this work was finding out the most advisable testing conditions for an effective and robust characterization of the tensile strength (TS) of concrete disks. The independent variables were the loading geometry, the angle subtended by the contact area, disk diameter and thickness, maximum aggregate size, and the sample compression strength (CS). The effect of the independent variables was studied in a three groups of experiments using a factorial design with two levels and four factors. The likeliest location where failure beginning was calculated using the equations that account for the stress-strain field developed within the disk. The theoretical outcome shows that for failure beginning at the geometric center of the sample, it is necessary for the contact angle in the loading setup to be larger than or equal to a threshold value. Nevertheless, the measured indirect tensile strength must be adjusted to get a close estimate of the uniaxial TS of the material. The correction depends on the loading geometry, and we got their mathematical expression and cross-validated them with the reported in the literature. The experimental results show that a loading geometry with a curved contact area, uniform load distribution over the contact area, loads projected parallel to one another within the disk, and a contact angle bigger of $12^{\circ}$ is the most advisable and robust setup for implementation of BT on concrete disks. This work provides a description of the BT carries on concrete disks and put forward a characterization technique to study costly samples of cement based material that have been enabled to display new and improved properties with nanomaterials.

The purposes of this study were to 1) describe the type and frequency of aggressive behavior of cognitively impaired nursing home resident, 2) develop a caregiver training program on prevention and management of aggressive behavior, 3) examine the effects of caregiver training program on the incidence of aggressive behavior of cognitively impaired nursing home resident, and 4) examine the effects of caregiver training program on nursing staff's aggressive behavior management skills. Methods. One-group, time series, quasi-experimental design with a pre-test and two post- tests was used. Data were collected from cognitively impaired home residents (N = 32) and nursing staff (N = 36) in a proprietary nursing home using Ryden Aggression Scale I, II, and Aggressive Behavior Management Scale. Data were entered and analyzed by descriptive statistics and repeated measures ANOVA. Results. Incidence of aggressive behavior was high with a mean score of 3.09 (SD = 3.11) at baseline. Caregiver training program was developed based on Progressively Lowered Stress Threshold (PLST) model and gerontological and psychiatric literature. The mean scores of aggressive behavior at baseline, Post I, and II did not differ significantly although the difference approached to the significant level (F = 2.925, p = .066). Nursing staff's aggressive behavior management skills increased at Post I, and at Post II when compared to baseline, and the difference was significant (F=12.736, p=<.00l). Conclusion. Caregiver training program showed potential impact on reduction of aggressive behavior in elders with cognitive impairment and was effective in increasing nursing staff's aggressive behavior management skills.

본 논문에서는 삼차원 소자 시뮬레이터(Sentaurus)를 이용하여 tri-gate FinFET의 fin과 소스/드레인 구조의 변화에 따른 소자의 성능을 분석하였다. Fin의 구조가 사각형 구조에서 삼각형 구조로 변함에 따라, fin 단면의 전위 분포의 차이로 문턱 전압이 늘어나고, off-current가 72.23% 감소하고 gate 커패시턴스는 16.01% 감소하였다. 소스/드레인 epitaxy(epi) 구조 변화에 따른 성능을 분석하기 위해, epi를 fin 위에 성장시킨 경우(grown-on-fin)와 fin을 etch 시키고 성장시킨 경우(etched-fin)의 소자 성능을 비교했다. Fin과 소스/드레인 구조의 변화가 회로에 미치는 영향을 살펴보기 위해 Sentaurus의 mixed-mode 시뮬레이션 기능을 사용하여 3단 ring oscillator를 구현하여 시뮬레이션 하였고, energy-delay product를 계산하여 비교하였다. 삼각형 fin에 etched 소스/드레인 epi 구조의 소자가 가장 작은 ring oscillator delay와 energy-delay product을 보였다.

본 연구에서는 암석의 최대강도 이전의 각 손상단계에서 탄성정수의 변화로 나타나는 손상특성과 최대강도 후거동을 고려할 수 있는 손상모델을 실험적으로 개발하였다. 일축 및 삼축압축실험 결과를 토대로 암석의 손상기준을 결정하였고, 각 손상단계에서 탄성정수의 변화를 구속압의 함수로 최적화시켰다. 또한 최대강도 후 Hoek-Brown상수 mr과 sr을 이용하여 최대강도 후 거동을 모사하였다. 개발된 실험 손상모델을FLAC$^{2D}$의 FISH 함수로 구현하여 수치해석을 실시하였다. Hoek-Brown 최대강도 후 상수들이 해석결과에 미치는 영향을 분석한 결과, 일축압축강도는 mr과 sr 모두에 의해 영향을 받으나 5,에 의해 더 크게 좌우되는 것으로 나타났다. 반면 m,은 최대강도 후의 응력-변형률 곡선의 기울기에 큰 영향을 끼치는 것으로 나타났다. 분석으로부터 얻어진 최적 손상모델을 수치해석에 적용한 결과 실험실 시험으로부터 얻어진 최대 강도와 암석의 손상에 따른 강성 변화를 잘 예측하였다.다.

Objective: Sow longevity is important for efficient and profitable pig farming. Recently, there has been an increasing interest in social genetic effect (SGE) of pigs on stress-tolerance and behavior. The present study aimed to estimate genetic correlations among average daily gain (ADG), stayability (STAY), and number of piglets born alive at the first parity (NBA1) in Korean Yorkshire pigs, using a model including SGE. Methods: The phenotypic records of ADG and reproductive traits of 33,120 and 11,654 pigs, respectively, were evaluated. The variances and (co) variances of the studied traits were estimated by a multi-trait animal model applying the Bayesian with linear-threshold models using Gibbs sampling. Results: The direct and SGEs on ADG had a significantly negative (-0.30) and neutral (0.04) genetic relationship with STAY, respectively. In addition, the genetic correlation between the social effects on ADG and NBA1 tended to be positive (0.27), unlike the direct effects (-0.04). The genetic correlation of the total effect on ADG with that of STAY was negative (-0.23) but non-significant, owing to the social effect. Conclusion: These results suggested that total genetic effect on growth in the SGE model might reduce the negative effect on sow longevity because of the growth potential of pigs. We recommend including social effects as selection criteria in breeding programs to obtain satisfactory genetic changes in both growth and longevity.
