The degree of income inequality deepened by health care expenditure was useful in assessing the health security level. This exploratory study was conducted to provide a basic evidence to prove the necessity of reinforcement the benefit coverage of South Korea's health security systems. Data from the Household Income and Expenditure Survey of Korea and Luxembourg Income Study were used. Income inequality indices before and after deduction of health care expenditure were computed, and the degree of the increase in the indices was compared among 13 countries. The degree of decrease against the effect of income inequality reduction policies by health care expenditure was determined. The relationships between the national characteristics and the increase in income inequality were examined. In South Korea, all income inequality indices increased after deducting health care expenditure, but the difference was not high compared to the mean of 13 countries. However, the degree of decrease against the effect of income inequality reduction policies by health care expenditure was high, compared to the mean of 13 countries. The proportion of public sector spending on health care proved to be statistically significant with the increase of income inequality indices (p<0.05). In the context of the continuous increase in health care expenditure, if benefit coverage of health security systems is not reinforced, income inequality will all the more increase due to health care expenditure. In the establishment of the policies for reinforcement of the benefit coverage, income inequality after deduction of health care expenditure should be continuously monitored.

This study examines fracture characteristics of wire rope of 6$\times$37+FC 14mm B degree, Which has been widely used for the strength support for machinery, cranes and shipping. The examination Is based on the fellowing experimental conditions. Firstly, this study analyzes the effect of the strength of wlre rope. When number of broken wires is occuring at the level of 5%, 10% and 15% degree respectively in the following two cases：1) Case of broken down to each strand equally. 2) Case of broken down to one strand only. Secondly, this study analyzes the effect of corrosion on the strength of wire rope. Corrosion times are 72hours, 144hours and 216hours corrosion respectively under following conditions. 1) Case of only a corrosion without wire breaking. 2) Case of corrosion after 5% degree wire breaking to each strand equally. Some outcomes of these experiment are as follows. 1) From the of tension test, We can find that the ratio of strength reduction case of wire broke down to one strand concentrically is greater than that ratio case of broke down to each strand equally. 2) From the corrosion test, We can also find that the ratio of strength reduction case of corroded after 5% degree wire breaking to each strand equally Is greater than that ratio case of corroded without wire breaking. 3) After comparing theoretical fracture load of wires with experimental fracture load of wires, we can find the fracture load of the case of broken down to each strand equally is most similar to theoretical fracture load. 4) It is proposed that safety rules on wire rope in the Industrial safety and healthy labor of law have to change “breaking over 10% of number of wires in one strand of wire rope(excluded filler wire )”has to be replaced by“breaking over 10% of number of all wires in all strand of wire rope(excluded filler wire)”

Background: The presence of enophthalmos is an important determinant in the decision of orbital wall fracture surgery. We proposed eyelid drooping as a new anthropometric diagnostic measure and analyzed whether eyelid drooping is associated with enophthalmos. Methods: This retrospective study was performed from January 2014 to December 2016. A total of 75 patients with blowout fractures were studied. One experimenter measured the degree of enophthalmos using a Hertel exophthalmometer at 1 week after trauma and at 3 months after surgery. The height change of the upper eyelid was measured using the marginal reflex distance (MRD) on both sides, and the degree of eyelid drooping was calculated by comparing the two lengths. We analyzed statistically the correlation between enophthalmos and eyelid drooping. Results: We found a highly significant correlation between the degree of enophthalmos and the reduction rate of MRD (RRM, as an indicator of eyelid drooping) at 1 week after trauma (r= 0.845). Approximately 2.0 mm of enophthalmos was associated with a 30.8% reduction in MRD on the affected side as compared with the normal side. At 3 months after surgery, patients showed improved eyelid appearance, with a moderate association between enophthalmos and RRM. Conclusion: We demonstrated that the degree of enophthalmos, measured using an exophthalmometer, is associated with a change in the height of the upper eyelid. Thus, upper eyelid drooping can be used as another indicator for orbital wall fracture surgery. Compared with conventional methods, measurements of eyelid drooping are easy to perform, offering a great advantage and understanding to the patient.

3 phr의 그래핀 옥사이드(GO)를 포함하는 폴리카보네이트(PC)/GO를 클로로포름에서 용액 혼합하여 응고물 침전한 후 240, 260, $280^{\circ}C$의 이축압출기를 이용하여 PC/GO 복합체를 제조하였다. DSC와 TGA 측정결과 PC/GO 복합체의 유리전이 온도($T_g$)의 변화는 거의 없었고, 분해거동을 통해 확인한 열안정성의 경우 $260^{\circ}C$ 압출시편이 우수하게 나타났다. 동적기계적분석(DMA)을 이용한 저장탄성률 측정결과 PC 대비 PC/GO 복합체의 값이 크게 나타났으며 압출온도별로는 큰 차이가 없는 것을 확인하였다. 이들 결과로부터 환원시간에 따른 PC/RGO 복합체의 압출온도를 $260^{\circ}C$로 고정하였다. GO의 환원시간에 따른 PC/RGO 복합체의 화학반응 정도는 $3000cm^{-1}$ 부근에서 나타나는 C-H 신축진동피크를 통해 확인하였고, 환원시간이 1 h일 때의 GO와 유사한 화학반응 정도를 나타내었다. GO의 환원시간에 따른 PC/GO 복합체의 복소점도(complex viscosity)가 감소하는 것을 확인하였으며, 이는 PC-GO 사이의 화학반응에 의한 분산성에 기인한 것으로 주사전자현미경(SEM)을 통해 확인하였다.

본 논문에서는 신뢰성 기반 최적설계(RBDO)에서 성능함수의 비선형성을 고려한 효율적인 차원감소법(DRM)을 제안한다. 차원감소법은 적분직교점과 가중치를 사용하여 1차 신뢰도법(FORM) 보다 더 정확하게 신뢰도를 평가하는 반면 성능함수를 추가로 해석해야하기 때문에 적분직교점의 개수가 증가하면 효율성이 저해된다. 본 논문에서는 신뢰성 기반 최적설계에서 성능함수의 비선형도를 평가하고, 비선형도에 따라 적분직교점의 수를 결정하는 기준을 제안한다. 이를 통해 신뢰성 기반 최적설계가 진행될 때 반복마다 적분직교점의 수를 조절하여 차원감소법의 정확도는 유지하면서 계산의 효율성은 개선하는 방안을 제안한다. 성능함수의 비선형도 평가는 최대가능목표점(MPTP) 탐색에 사용한 벡터 사이의 각도를 통해 이루어지며, 수치 테스트를 통해 비선형도에 따른 적절한 적분직교점의 수를 도출하였다. 2차원 수치예제를 통해 개발된 방법이 차원감소법이나 몬테카를로 시뮬레이션(MCS)의 정확도는 유지하면서 효율성이 향상된다는 것을 확인하였다.

In order to provide fundamental data for the creation of environmental design criteria for horticultural facilities, we developed a method to easily calculate the seasonal heating load applying heating degree-hour while taking into account heating load reductions due to solar radiation in the daytime, and reviewed through greenhouse heating experiments. Heating experiments and measuring meteorological environments were carried out in three greenhouses located at Buyeo, Cheonan, and Buan, and we derived reduction factors of seasonal heating load according to hours of sunshine. Daily mean hours of sunshine during the experiment period in each of the greenhouse was 4.0 to 8.3 hours, and the reduction factor of seasonal heating load was 0.64 to 0.85, has been shown to decrease linearly with the increase in hours of sunshine. A method to estimate the seasonal heating load for greenhouses was developed using the reduction factor of seasonal heating load derived from the greenhouse heating experiment, including the adjustment factor of seasonal heating load according to hours of sunshine. The developed method was validated through heating experiments in a greenhouse located at Cheonan. Greenhouse seasonal heating loads calculated by the method developed in this study were analyzed to show the estimate error of 1.2 to 5.0%. It showed that the accuracy increased 2.3 times more than when using the heating load reduction factor of 0.75 applied uniformly in previous studies. Thus, the calculation method of seasonal heating load for greenhouses considering hours of sunshine developed in this study could be utilized for energy estimation, management planning, and economic evaluation in greenhouse design.

Background: Radial neck fracture in children is rare. This study attempted to evaluate the outcome of surgically treated patients and any associated complications. Methods: This study evaluated 23 children under 15 years of age with radial neck fracture who were treated with open reduction between 2006 and 2016 to determine their range of motion, postoperative complications, and radiographic outcomes. The results were assessed clinically using the Mayo clinic elbow performance score. Results: The mean follow-up duration for patients was 34.6 months. The average postoperative angulation was 3.6°. Hypoesthesia was reported in only 9% of patients, and none of the patients complained of postoperative pain. The postoperative X-ray results were excellent in 60% and good in 40%. No radiographic complications were identified. The elbow score was excellent in 87% and good in 13% (mean score, 96.74). There was a statistical relationship between range of motion limitations and age, degree of fracture, initial displacement, and surgical pin removal time. Conclusions: Although most patients accept the closed reduction method as a primary treatment, the present study suggests that an open-reduction approach has been associated with optimal therapeutic outcomes for patients in whom closed reduction was not satisfactory or indicated.
