The purpose of this study was to explore the relationship between self-rated health and Activity of Daily Living (ADL) and self-care behavior of rural elderly in Korea, focused on the difference among three distinctive living arrangements; living alone, living only with his/her spouse, and living with their married children. For this purpose, data were gathered from a nationwide survey, a total of 586 elderly aged 65 or older and living in rural area, using the structured questionnaire. Also, self-care behavior were categorized into 4 groups; life-style practice, medical self-care, adaption to functional limitation, and emotional management. The major findings are as follows; 1) Rural elderly perceived their health little and more 'bad' but their ADL capacity were 'not difficult', especially among elderly living with spouse. 2) The level of 20 items in self-care behavior ($1{\sim}5$score) was ranged from 2.51 to 3.81 score. The behavior level of regular exercise, setting up additional phone, taking a nutrient, and testing BP or pulse regularly were low but that of taking a medicine according to prescription, close contact with other people, and regular eating were proportionally high. 3) The majority of self-care behavior were correlated with subjective health positively but medical self-care behavior were correlated with subjective health or ADL negatively. Based on these results, policy implications are discussed.

The spring home range and habitat use of the spot-billed duck in Korea were studied using GPS-mobile phone-based telemetry (WT-300). The study areas were Anseong-si, Seosan-si, Nonsan-si, and Sejong-si. Analysis was performed using minimum convex polygon (MCP) and kernel density estimation (KDE) spot-billed ducks had an average home range of 70.28 km² (standard deviation [SD]=84.50, n=6), and a core habitat (50%) 2.66 km² (SD=2.60, n=6), according to MCP and KDE, respectively. Wetlands (41.5%) and rice fields (35.7%) were highly used as habitats. The rice field use rate was high during the day, and the wetland utilization rate was high at night. Rice fields and wetlands were the primary habitats in spring.

The purpose of this study is to calculate the behavior of molecules for the generation of homogeneous thin-films in the process of spray deposition. The calculation system was composed of a suface molecular region and droplet molecular region. The thin-film was generated when droplet molecules fell to surface molecules. Lennard-Jones potential had been used as intermolecular potential, and only attraction 때 d repulsion had been used for the behavior of the droplet on the solid surface. As results, the behavior of the droplet was so much influenced by the surface temperature in the spray deposition process. High temperature of surface has higher porosity and larger spread area. It was found that simulation results generally agreed well with previous the experimental results. This simulation result will be the foundation for the deposition processes of industry.

In this study, analysis of water mist behavior is performed using numerical simulation. Water mist is characterized by the droplet flow which is one of the multiphase flows and is discrete fluid droplets in continuous air. It is important to choose the proper diameter of droplet-size and the distance between the fire location and the position of water mist because it depends on the buoyancy from fire. Therefore the behavior of water mist with fire should be simulated by FLUENT, a commercial computational fluid dynamics(CFD) program, with Lagrangian discrete phase model. (DPM)

Among the various wave power systems, Salter's duck (rotor) is one of the most effective wave absorbers for extracting wave energy. The rotor shape is designed such that the front part faces the direction of the incident wave, which forces it to bob up and down due to wave-induced water particle motion, whereas the rear part, which is mostly circular in shape, reflects no waves. The asymmetric geometric shape of the duck makes it absorb energy efficiently. In the present study, the rotor was investigated using WAMIT (a program based on the linear potential flow theory in three-dimensional diffraction/radiation analyses) in the frequency domain and verified using OrcaFlex (design and analysis program of marine system) in the time domain. Then, an experimental investigation was conducted to assess the performance of the rotor motion based on the model scale in a two-dimensional (2D) wave tank. Initially, a free decay test (FDT) was carried out to obtain the viscous damping coefficient. The pitch response was extracted from the experimental time series in a periodic regular wave for two different wave heights (1 cm and 3 cm). In addition, the viscous damping coefficient was calculated from the FDT result and fluid forces, obtained from WAMIT, are incorporated into the final response of the rotor. Finally, a comparative study based on experimental and numerical results (WAMIT & OrcaFlex) was performed to confirm the performance reliability of the designed rotor.

A new technique for low temperature crystallization of amorphous silicon, called field aided lateral crystallization(FALC) was attempted. To demonstrate the concept of FALC, thin layer of nickel(30${\AA}$) was deposited on top of amorphous silicon film and the electric field was applied during the crystallization. The effects of electric field on the crystallization behavior of amorphous silicon film were investigated.

As the construction industry has been developed since 1970, there is a great needs to develop the methodology for repair and rehabilitation of the damaged reinforced concrete structures. Numerous materials which are currently used in construction field without any regulations are examined in terms of their serviceabilities and effectiveness. Structural behavior of repaired beams are investigated both statically and dynamically. This paper summarize the overall research plan, which is sponsored by KICT, in 1994.

The purpose of this study was to investigate the safety motivation, confidence in performance, and behavior of safety management and to identify the factors affecting behavior of safety management targeted nursing students. Subjects were 127 nursing students and data were collected by questionnaires from December 1 to December 20, 2020. Data were analyzed using t-test, ANOVA, Scheffe test, Pearson correlation coefficients and multiple regression analysis. Safety motivation was positive correlated with confidence in performance, and behavior of safety management. Confidence in performance was positive correlated with behavior of safety management. Safety motivation and confidence in performance were main factors that affects behavior of safety management. These results suggest to develop education intervention program that include safety motivation, confidence in performance in order to improve behavior of safety management of nursing students.
