The "Somun Jogyongron(素問 調經論)" describes excess and deficiency syndromes. The study suggests that excess syndrome(實證) is caused by vigorous pathogenic fire(火邪)(the spirit(神)), pathogenic dryness(燥邪)(Gi(氣)), pathogenic wind(風邪)(blood(血)), pathogenic dampness(濕邪)(physique(形)) or pathogenic coldness(寒邪)(will(志)). When pathogenic fire is dominant within the body, Gi and blood becomes excessive and come out of the body, but the body cannot take them back, leading to the symptom in which the patient cannot stop laughing. When pathogenic dryness prevails, the lung(肺) cannot function properly. This means that the convergence(收斂) function of the clearing the lung and descending Gi(肅降) is deteriorated, and the patient shows symptoms of dyspnea and cough. Strong pathogenic wind increases the ascencling Gi in the liver(肝氣) and fuel angry emotion when the patient becomes upset. When pathogenic dampness is dominant, spleen(脾) function drops due to lumping effects, and the patient will experience abdominal distention(腹脹), which will disturb urination and defecation. When pathogenic coldness prevails, abdominal distention occurs due to condensating effects, and Yang Gj(陽氣) in the kidney(腎) is disturbed, leading to digestion disorders and eventually water-grain dysentery. Deficiency syndrome is caused by the lack of essential Gi(精氣) in the five viscera(五藏). Deficiency of sprit means the lack of Gi in the heart(心氣), so the patient becomes vulnerable to sadness. Deficiency of Gi means the lack of Gi in the lung(肺氣), so the patient may have breathing disorders. Deficiency of blood means the lack of Gi in the Liver(肝氣), so the patient can be easily scared. Deficiency of physique means the lack of Gi in the spleen(脾氣), making it difficult to use arms and legs. Deficiency of will means the lack of Gi in the kidney(腎氣), so Gowl syndrome(厥證) can ensue.

In this study, we try to solve some issues of Gi(氣) conversion in "Somun(素問) Eumyang-eungsangdaeron(陰陽應象大論)", through comparison of related annotations. Through this analysis we can again review the cognition of movement and changes of Gi(氣), one of the most important aspects in Oriental medicine, so to have a chance to criticize a view of the world in western science, excessively leaned to material viewpoint. In the process of Gi conversion, the creation of Jeong(精), one of the most essential elements, is the last goal, but physical element for example Mi(味, taste) or Hyeong(形, shape) could not be directly converted to Jeong(精) without Gihwa(氣化, vaporization) and circulation of Gi(氣). And who controls conversion to Jeong(精) is human spirit, that joins with Jeonggi(精氣), it has been kept in and come from Jeong(精). That spirit based on Jeong manages the whole process of Gi conversion.

As media technology has made rapid progress, cultures in the world have spread fast. In addition, Korea wave spreading toward the world is taking shape as a brand that represents essential Koreanness. Such tendency has led attempts to seek Koreanness in the field of space design. The desire to escape from the absence of humanity that is based on mechanistic nature view has led a variety of ideas and concepts on space. In particular, concept of phenomenological space centering on human body has been emphasized. Merleau-Ponty found concept of phenomenological space that emphasizes awareness through experience of human body. In this thesis, orientation as situation, temporality as body, depth as consciousness, and correlational orientation which are key concepts of Merleau-Ponty's phenomenology were covered. Such concepts were used in analyzing the characteristics of Buseoksa Temple to present essential Koreanness.

Proteomics is a formalized approach for obtaining a rapid snap-shot of the protein complement of a tissue, cell or cell component. Such an approach is powerful in that it allows a parallel assessment of temporal protein fluxes. This is an important concept in view of the dynamic nature of protein expression. Undoubtedly, changes in protein expression are essential in any study aimed at investigating cellular networks. In this study, we analyzed and compared the proteomes of recombinant E. coli strain before and after induction. Proteome expression patterns of recombinant E. coli were resolved on 2D-gels, and the variations in the relative expression level of particular proteins were examined using software-aided protein quantification tool. We observed above 800 spots on a 2D-gel using Melanie II software. Many proteins which involved in chaperones were significantly up-regulated in recombinant E. coli. Therefore, it could be concluded that the expression of recombinant protein in E. coli acted as a stress to the cells, which change cells ability to synthesize proteins and induced the expression of various protective proteins.

Objectives : The purpose of this study was to investigate the interpretation of the Soyo-san(SYS) prescription in order to obtain the evidence for clinical applications. Methods and Result : We interpreted on the SYS-related contents based on 25 classic books, analyzed it according to followed categories ; meaning of name, alteration of herbal composition according to age, usage, origin, physiological and pathological situation of SYS, description of each herbal drug Conclusion : 1. So(逍) mean diminish(消), 遙 mean roll(搖). It reflected feature of SYS, that alleviate depression without impairing vital energy(正氣). 2. SYS was first mentioned in the prescription of peaceful benevolent dispensary(太平惠民和劑局方), its essential application was harminizing liver depression and spleen deficiency(肝鬱脾虛) 3. SYS originated from Sayuk-san. Sayuk-san was appropriate for soothe the liver and regulate the spleen(疏肝理脾), while SYS was suitable for depressed liver and blood deficiency(肝鬱血虛) 4. Most medical literature insisted that application situation of SYS is blood deficiency(血虛), depressed liver(肝鬱), spleen deficiency(脾虛). And there is strong correlation between three factors. 5. Bupleurum falcatum L.(柴胡), Mentha arvensis L.(薄荷) alleviates liver depression as "pungent dissipate-qi uprais (辛散氣升)" nature. Angelica gigas Nakai(當歸), Paeonia lactiflora Pall.(白芍藥) emoliates the liver by nourishing the blood. Atractylodes japonica Koidz. ex Kitam.(白朮), Poria cocos(茯苓), Glycyrrhiza uralensis Fisch.(甘草), Zingiber officinale Roscoe(生薑) cultivate the basis as tonifying earth(補土).

A competent velopharyngeal sphincter is essential for intelligible speech. If the velopharyngeal incompetence exist, the seal will not be complete during speech, with a resultant hypernasal speech quality. The patient with velopharyngeal incompetence(VPI) may develope other compensatory speech problems. There are many approaches available to correct velopharyngeal incompetence, which include speech therapy, push back palatorrhaphy, pharyngeal wall implants and pharyngoplasty. This is cases report of velopharyngeal incompetence, which were successfully treated by superiorly based pharyngeal flap, covered with splitted hinge flap of nasal lining mucosa of the soft palate, named modified Hogan method. The advantages of this method are precision in the approximation of the flap due to pentagonal shaped flap design, good blood supply due to omission of the midsagittal incision on nasal lining mucosa, and simplicity than Hogan method.

At the present time, container transportation plays a key role in the international logistics and the efforts to increase the productivity of container logistics become essential for Korean trucking companies to survive in the domestic as well as global competition. This study suggests an approach for determining fleet size for container road transportation with dynamic demand. Usually the vehicles operated by the transportation trucking companies in Korea can be classified into three types depending on the ways how their expenses occur; company-owned truck, mandated truck which is owned by outsider who entrust the company with its operation, and rented vehicle (outsourcing). Armually the trucking companies should decide how many company-owned and mandated trucks will be operated considering vehicle types and the transportation demands. With the forecasted monthly data for the volume of containers to be transported a year, a heuristic algorithm using tabu search is developed to determine the number of company-owned trucks, mandated trucks, and rented trucks in order to minimize the expected annual operating cost The idea of the algorithm is based on both the aggregate production planning (APP) and the pickup-and-delivery problem (PDP). Finally the algorithm is tested for the problem how the trucking company determines the fleet size for transporting containers.

Additive manufacturing with 3XX austenitic stainless steels has been widely investigated during a decade due to its high strength, good corrosion resistance, and fair weldability. However, in recently, Ni price drastically increased due to the high demand of secondary battery for electric mobilities. Thus, it is essential to substitute the Ni with Mn for reducing stainless steels price. Meanwhile, the chemical composition changes in stainless steels not only affect to its properties but also change the optimal processing parameters during additive manufacturing. Therefore, it is necessary to optimize the processing parameters of each alloy for obtaining high-quality product using additive manufacturing. After processing optimization, mechanical properties and microstructure of the laser-powder bed fusion processed Fe-15Cr-7Ni-3Mn alloy were investigated in both room (298 K) and cryogenic (77 K) temperatures. Since the temperature reduction affects to the deformation mechanism transition, multi-scale microstructural characterization technique was conducted to reveal the deformation mechanism of each sample.
