  • Fold axis of fold, a representative ductile deformation structure, is important for collecting information on the 3D fold structure and the orientation of maximum horizontal principal stress at the time of deformation. For this reason, several fold axis measurement methods based on the fold-related structural elements have been suggested and used even in areas where it is impossible to measure it directly. Thus, these various measurement methods are briefly introduced here, and the measured data with different methods are compared to estimate these methods' reliability. For this purpose, we acquired fold axes at six sites across the Manhang formation of the Pyeongan supergroup and limestones of the Joseon supergroup in Danyang, Chungcheongbuk-do, where fold structures are well developed. The data from the different methods are generally consistent, indicating practical applicability. Most of the fold axes from the measured sites show NNNE or NE trends indicating WNW-ESE or NW-SE trending maximum horizontal principal stress, except for the one site with a WNW trend. The WNW-ESE trending fold axis might be related to a different orogeny or secondary folding. The minor difference in the trends between N-NNE and NE was interpreted as being due to different scale; however, further research is needed to confirm this.

  • The purpose of this study is to examine the major academic activities of the Korean Gerontological Society (KGS) during the last 40 years in comparison to changes in elderly policies in Korea and also academic trends in gerontology worldwide and the academic activities of the International Association of Gerontology and Geriatrics (IAGG); based on this analysis, this study aims to propose future directions for the academic progress of the KGS. We examined the major academic activities of the KGS by analyzing the contents of biannual conferences, international conferences, and irregular seminars and policy meetings, using conference booklets, KGS websites, and literature on KGS history. Second, we analyzed the academic activities of the KGS in comparison to changes in elderly policies in Korea, using databases of major newspapers and also the BigKinds search offered by the Korea Press Foundation. Third, the academic activities of the KGS were reviewed in comparison to those of the IAGG and the major aging policy agendas of key international organizations. The study results demonstrate that the KGS has been proactive in conducting diverse multi-disciplinary and international academic activities while promptly responding to both domestic and international changes in elderly policies. But some issues were not properly addressed due to the lack of diversity in its members, and it also should be noted that some issues were not discussed in depth for a sufficient length of time. Henceforth, as the leading academic organization in gerontology with a multi-disciplinary orientation in Korea, the KGS should continue to lead the development and evaluation of aging policies and also actively carry out diverse academic activities in collaboration with international academic societies and organizations.

  • The Eoraesan area, Chungju, which is located in the northwestern part of Ogcheon Metamorphic Zone, Korea, mainly consists of the Neoproterozoic Gyemyeongsan Formation and the Mesozoic igneous rocks which intruded it. The metaacidic rocks (MAR) of the Gyemyeongsan Formation show a maximum radioactive value, and the Early Jurassic biotite granite is regionally distributed in this area. In this paper is researched the microstructure related to the growth of rare-earth mineral of allanite in the MAR, and is considered the source and occurrence time of rare-earth element (REE) mineralization. The MAR is mainly composed of alkalic feldspar (mainly microcline), quartz, iron-oxidizing mineral, biotite, muscovite, plagioclase, hornblende, allanite, zircon, epidote, fluorite, apatite, garnet, (clino)zoisite etc. The radioactive elements contained in the allanite cause a dark brown hale in the surrounding biotite, and the allinte also occurs as aggregate along the regional foliation. The deflection of regional foliation and the strain shadows, which are common to the pre-tectonic porphyroblast grown before the formation of regional foliation, can't be observed around most allanites (aggregates). The grain size and orientation of ironoxidizing mineral included in the allanite aggregate are the same as those in the matrix. It is recognized the hydrothermal conversion of hornblende to biotite due to the intrusion of igneous rock, and the secondary biotite occurs and contacts with allanite, zircon, epidote etc. These microstructures indicate that the rare-earth mineral of allanite (aggregate) grew by the hydrothermal alteration due to the intrusion of igneous rock after the formation of regional foliation. It is considered that the REE mineralization is closely related to the intrusion of Early Jurassic biotite granite which is regionally distributed in this area.

  • Total hip arthroplasty (THA) is a successful surgical treatment for both patients with chronical lameness and dogs who are nonresponsive to medical treatments, providing excellent joint function for returning dogs to the normal gait in 80% to 98% of hip dysplasia (HD) patients. The THA surgical implant system manufactured by BioMedtrix and Kyon are today widely accepted. When comparing the BioMedtrix biological fixation (BFX) system to the BioMedtrix cemented fixation (CFX) system, the many advantages of BFX, which include longer potential implant life, decreased risk of postoperative or later infection, and better implant stability, become evident. However, BFX implies a greater risk of femoral fracture during reaming and requires a more precise surgical technique to achieve good implant fit, given the press-fit nature of cementless THA. The purposes of this study are to both describe the mistakes and complications during stem implantation for beginner surgeons with both the BFX and the CFX systems and to document the initial result of 12 implantations in canine cadavers. Given the detailed evaluations of 3 specialists, who are Diplomate American College of Veterinary Surgeons (DACVS), only 3 of 11 stems were appropriately sized. Specifically, 6 stems were anteverted rather than being retroverted; further, although 7 stems were coaxial with the femoral long axis in the frontal plane, the other stems were in the varus at the frontal plane, with the proximal medial stem adjacent to the medial femoral cortex. Moderate angulation from the cranial to the caudal directions was found in 4 cases in the sagittal plane. Additionally, 1 case of femoral fissure and 1 case of perforated femoral cortex were reported. It is not easy for surgeons performing cementless THA for the first time to achieve a good result, even though they completed an educational course about it and given that catastrophic complications often occurred during early surgical clinical cases. Therefore, ex-vivo studies are sincerely required to get an expertise by rehearsing the preparation of the femoral envelop in isolated bones. Further studies should be conducted to achieve both highly accurate implant size and correct orientation during the preoperative planning. Additionally, surgeons' learning curve should be examined in future investigations.

  • This thesis examines that Shin-Heum(申欽)'s Uigoakbu(擬古樂府) was created under the context of acceptance of the Ming Dynasty's literary theory, and searched the influence of the former and latter seven master(前後七子)'s methodology of imitation through analysis of "Han-Yoga(漢?歌)" 18 songs. As well as Shin-Heum created unprecedented number of uigoakbu, he conducted imitation to "Han-Yoga(漢?歌)" 18 songs for the first time in the Joseon Dynasty. This was attributed to deep interest about the Ming Dynasty's literary theory in the middle of the Joseon Dynasty. Agreeing to the Ming Dynasty's reactionism literary theory, he hoped to reproduce the literature of the past such as the Han(漢) Dynasty and Wei(魏) Dynasty by using methodology of imitation. So he created his works referencing the Ming Dynasty's uigoakbu in both expression and subject consciousness. This aspect is not only a basis to widen the understanding of the motive of creation and existence pattern of Shin-Heum's uigoakbu that have not been studied in enough interest, but also a case to show that the former and latter seven master's literary orientation and methodology of imitation were deeply accepted by the Joseon dynasty's writers.

  • The aim of this study was to examine the impacts of pre-briefing using structured video simulations in the pre-hospital trauma care simulation-based education on simulation immersion, simulation confidence, and simulation satisfaction. For both the experimental group and the control group, orientations were conducted on the simulation environment. Subsequently, the experimental group watched a video of about 8 minutes, similar to the scenario situation, in which the goal and result of the training were presented. The control group, on the other hand, conducted a classical way of orientation related to the scenario during the same time period. In addition, the experimental group and the control group underwent simulation practice in the same situation for 12 minutes, and debriefing was performed for 40 minutes by the same research assistant. Afterwards, we measured the simulation immersion, confidence, and satisfaction of the participants. Data were analyzed using χ2 and independent t-test using the SPSS 22.0 program. It was found that the experimental group that conducted the pre-briefing using video had higher immersion and confidence than the control group. On the other hand, satisfaction was not significantly different between the two groups. The results indicate that pre-briefing using structured video was an effective educational method to increase simulation immersion and simulation confidence.

  • 산업발전에 따른 인구증가, 기후위기에 따른 가뭄 및 물 부족심화, 그리고 수질오염 등은 2015년 제79차 UN총회의 물 안보측면에서 국제사회의 물 분야 위기관리를 위해 2030년을 지속가능한 발전 목표(Sustainable Development Goals)로 하였다. 또한, 현재 물 산업은 빠르게 성장하고 있으며, 2016년 세계경제포럼(World Economic Forum) 의장 클라우스 슈밥(Klaus Schwab)부터 주창된 제4차 산업혁명로 인해 현재 물 산업의 패러다임 또한 급속히 변화하고 있다. 이는 컴퓨터를 기반으로 하는 CPS(Cyber Physical System) 및 DT(Digital Twin) 연계 분석방식의 혁신을 일컫는다. 2002년경에 DT의 기본개념이 제시되었고, 2006년경에는 Embedded System에서의 DT와 같은 개념으로 CPS의 용어가 등장했다. DT는 현실세계에 존재하는 사물, 시스템, 환경 등을 S/W시스템의 가상공간에 동일하게 모사(Virtualization) 및 모의(Simulation)할 수 있도록 하고, 모의결과를 가상시스템으로 현실세계를 최적화 체계 구현 기술을 말한다. DT의 6가지 기능은 ① 실제 데이터(Live Data), ② 모사, ③ 분석정보(Analytics), ④ 모의, ⑤ 예측(Predictions), ⑥ 자동화(Automation) 이다. 또한, CPS는 대규모 센서 및 액추에이터(Actuator)를 가지는 물리적 요소와 이를 실시간으로 제어하는 컴퓨팅 요소가 결합된 복합시스템을 말한다. CPS는 물리세계에서 발생하는 변화를 감지할 수 있는 다양한 센서를 통해 환경인지 기능을 수행한다. 센서로부터 수집된 정보와 물리세계를 재현 및 투영하는 고도화된 시스템 모델들을 기반으로 사이버 물리공간을 인지·분석·예측할 수 있다. CPS의 6가지 구성요소는 ① 상호 운용성(Interoperability), ② 가상화(Virtualization), ③ 분산화(Decentralization), ④ 실시간(Real-time Capability), ⑤ 서비스 오리엔테이션(Service Orientation), ⑥ 모듈화(Modularity)이다. DT와 CPS는 본질적으로 같은 목적, 내용, 그리고 결과를 만들어내고자 하는 같은 종류의 기술이라고 할 수 있다. CPS 및 DT는 물리세계에서 발생하는 변화를 감지할 수 있으며, 토양-지하수 센서를 포함한 관측기술을 통해 환경인지 기능을 수행한다. 지하수 관측기술로부터 수집된 정보와 물리세계를 재현 및 투영하는 고도화된 시스템 모델들을 기반으로 사이버 물리공간 및 디지털 트윈 공간을 인지·분석·예측할 수 있다. CPS 및 DT의 기본 요소들을 실현시키는 것은 양질의 데이터를 모니터링할 수 있는 정확하고 정밀한 1차원 연직 프로파일링 관측기술이며, 이를 토대로 한 수자원 관련 빅데이터의 증가, 빅데이터의 저장과 분석을 가능하게 하는 플랫폼의 개발이다. 본 연구는 CPS 및 DT 기반 토양수분-지하수 관측기술을 이용한 지표수-지하수 연계, 지하수 순환 및 관리, 정수 운영 및 진단프로그램 개발을 위한 토양수분-지하수 관측장치를 지하수 플랫폼 동시성과 디지털 트윈 시뮬레이터 시스템 개발 방향으로 제시하고자 한다.

  • Recently, national concern for record breaking level of deficit operation of KEPCO grows bigger in Korea. With this regard, many stakeholders believe KEPCO should be responsible for this result although it is not clear whether KEPCO is only to blame who is in such position where full cost pricing is impossible and entrepreneurial efficiency is not guaranteed. Particularly, less concern is given to Performance Evaluation for Public Organization(PEPO) which did not give prior warning against major deficit of KEPCO or help to improve its capacity to deal with the problem, and thus prevented KEPCO from acknowledging its managerial weakness by crediting KEPCO with successive grade B during the period of previous government. Based on such viewpoint, this study analyzes reports of PEPO for 5 years in terms of evaluability assessment and suggests proper direction for better PEPO in the future. From this analysis, it was found that firstly, relevant suggestion was not made to prevent or improve defict problem; secondly, comments are increasing every year without consistency; thirdly, comments related to long-term investment are only recently found; fourthly, suggestions are based on political orientation rather than evidence or expertise. This study is expected to contribute to evidence-based evaluation and knowledge management since it tackles evaluation reports themselves for the first time.

  • The effective evacuation strategy according to the accident scenario is crucial to minimize human casualties in the event of toxic gas leak accidents. In this study, the effect of the direction of a building and the location of an industrial complex on the increase in indoor concentration and outdoor diffusion was examined under the same leakage conditions, and effective evacuation criteria were established. In addition, the guidelines for building directions were suggested when constructing buildings that would mitigate human damage caused by chemical accidents. Three scenarios where buildings faced the front, side, and rear of the leakage direction were investigated through CFD simulations. The results revealed that when the building faced the industrial complex, both indoor and outdoor average gas concentrations increased significantly, reaching up to 120 times higher than the other two orientations. Moreover, the indoor space was filled with toxic gas substances more than twice in the same time due to the rapid increase of indoor concentration rate. In cases where the building's windows were positioned at the front, toxic gas stagnation occurred around the building due to pressure differences and reduced flow velocities. Based on our findings, the implementation of these guidelines will contribute to safeguarding residents by minimizing exposure to toxic gas during chemical accidents.
