3D terrestrial laser scanners record high precision three-dimensional coordinates of numerous points on an object surface in a short period of time, and is applied to a wide variety of fields including geodesy, and civil engineering, archaeology and architecture, and emergency service and defence, etc. However, most of terrestrial laser scanner utilized in homeland, were imported from foreign country, and also was not authorized formally as the surveying instrument. Therefore, standard test facility to calibrate and perform its evaluation in order to utilize it in a variety of fields is required. This study deals with the test facility of foreign countries for terrestrial laser scanner and suggest the establishment scheme of domestic test facility.

The seismic-induced failure of a dam could have catastrophic consequences associated with the sudden release of the impounded reservoir. Depending on the severity of the seismic hazard, the characteristics and size of the dam-reservoir system, preventing such a failure scenario could be a problem of critical importance. In many cases, the release of water is controlled through a reinforced-concrete intake tower. This paper describes the application of a static nonlinear procedure known as the Capacity Spectrum Method (CSM) to evaluate the structural integrity of intake towers subject to seismic ground motion. Three variants of the CSM are considered: a multimodal pushover scheme, which uses the idea proposed by Chopra and Goel (2002); an adaptive pushover variant, in which the change in the stiffness of the structure is considered; and a combination of both approaches. The effects caused by the water surrounding the intake tower, as well as any water contained inside the hollow structure, are accounted for by added hydrodynamic masses. A typical structure is used as a case study, and the accuracy of the CSM analyses is assessed with time history analyses performed using commercial and structural analysis programs developed in Matlab.

Purpose: The purpose of this study was to investigate factors that influence married female immigrants' perceived health status. Methods: This study was a retrospective review of dataset from the 2012 National Multicultural Family Survey in Korea. Data were analyzed using descriptive statistics, t-tests, an analysis of variance (ANOVA), Pearson correlation analysis, and multiple regression with the data of 3,014 married female immigrants. Results: Multiple regression analysis showed that demographic factors (age, education level, nationality, period of residency in Korea, and residential area), socio-economical factors (monthly family income, employment, support from the government for basic living, and Medicaid), social support factors (marital conflict, satisfaction with family relationships, some one to talk about self or family matters, meeting with homeland friend, and participation in community meeting), and immigration factors (life satisfaction, experience of social discrimination, and difficulties with living and using medical care) were associated with perceived health status. Conclusion: It is important to pay closer attention to immigrant women who have low economic status, less social support, experience difficulties with living in Korea and using medical care. An effective support system for this population should be developed in order to help them successfully transition.

This study analyzed the dietary behaviors and adaptation for Korean foods among Central Asian workers(Mongolia, Kazakhstan, Uzbekistan, Kyrgyzstan) living in South Korea to provide basic and fundamental data that allows Central Asian workers to have desirable eating habits while living in South Korea. Questionnaires were completed by 186 Central Asian workers living in South Korea. From this study, we found that 56.8% of respondents ate three meals a day, and 27.2% of respondents ate two meals a day. 29.7% of respondents had no snacks. For adapting Korean food, Mongolia, Uzbekistan, Kyrgyzstan workers had difficulties adapting spicy and salty flavors and unpleasant smell while Kazakhstan workers had difficulties due to sweet flavors and spicy and salty flavors. Men adapted better than women to adapt Korean food. Women respondents ate Korean food more often than men. And the Uzbekistan ratio of eating homeland food daily was the highest. By providing understanding of dietary patterns of Central Asian workers, these results can be used as the basic and fundamental data for their Korean food adaptation.

This study was carried out in order to investigate Korean food acculturation by married immigrant women and how it affects their children's eating habits. Using an in-depth interview method, 26 domestically residing married immigrant Chinese, Vietnamese, and Indonesian women in Korea were surveyed to investigate adaption to Korean food at the time of their immigration, their current dietary life, their preferred Korean food, major factors in managing their children's eating habits, etc. The results reveal that depending on the married immigrant women's country of birth, which plays an important role in a family's dietary life and health, acculturation phenomena occurred in which the specific eating habits of each country were grafted into Korean food. Furthermore, due to their school-age children's display of acceptance of both their homeland's and Korea's food culture, we believe that this can become a pivot point for non-governmental diplomacy where Korean food can be understood along with the mothers' countries.

Currently different local governments and research institutes have established and using DB for each purposes on the heterogeneous database. Normally physical unification method is used in order to unify this geospatial database, but this takes too much time and resources and require periodic renewal and synchronization. Therefore, this research would like to present a logical integrated unification method based on attribute information of heterogeneous database, and a system design and construction method, in order to subjugate inefficiencies from the physical unification method. Through this a system that could supply user customized geospatial database was established and verified the functionality using the road data of an actual region.

재난은 다양한 원인에 의하여 예측 불가능하게 발생되고 있다. 정보화의 진전에 따라 네트워크는 모든 경제활동의 근간이 되어 있으며, 재난이 발생하면 재난복구 및 구난 활동 등에 통신기능의 활용도가 더욱 높아진다. 특히 통신 장애를 일으키는 통신재난이 발생하면 그 파급효과는 빠르고, 넓게 확산되는 경향을 보인다. 국내.외적으로 국가 주요 활동의 정보통신의 의존도가 증가하고, 정보통신 기반의 복잡도와 개방성이 증가하여 위협 및 취약성이 증대하며, 정보전(cyber warfare)의 공격 위협이 증대하는데 비교하여, 통신 부문의 민영화에 따라 공공 부문 보호 영역이던 통신 부문이 민간 부문으로 확대되어 다양한 위협에 노출되어 있는 실정이다. 따라서 최근에는 통신 네트워크와 서비스를 정보통신 시스템과 서비스에 대한 독립적인 보호와 보안이라는 차원에서 한걸음 더 나아가 " 국가주요 기반 구조에 대한 보호와 위협에 대한 종합적인 대응 " 이라는 차원에서 접근하고 있다. 미국은 지난 및 비상대비 통신 전담기구인 NCS(National Communication System)와 대통령자문위원회인 NSTAC(National Security Telecommunication Advisory)등 종전부터 있던 통신 재난 및 비상 통신 관련 기구에서 진행해오던 통신 재난 및 비상 통신 관련 기구에서 진행해오던 통신 재난 및 비상 통신 관련 업무를 9-11 사태를 경험하면서 신설된 Department of Homeland Security에서 총괄하도록 하고 있다. 캐나다의 경우는 MSAT(Mobile Satellite Services) Emergency Telecommunication Network을 통한 긴급통신 시스템을 구축하였다. 일본의 경우 우정성(현재는 총무성에 통합) 산하 비상통신협의회를 구성하여 비상통신에 관련한 협의와 점검을 추진하며 방재용 무선 시스템을 구축 운용하고 있다. 본 고에서는 이와 같은 비상통신과 관련하여 수행하고 있는 국외 비상통신 관련표준화 현황 및 해외 주요국가 별 구축 동향에 대해서 기술한다.

In this study, we analyzed how ozone pollution could be differently measured and how these different measures varied year to year and across the ten most populated cities in the United States, from 1980 to 2000. Although peak values of ozone concentration have been significantly reduced in most polluted U.S. cities for the last 20 years, the annual average values of ozone concentration have not been lowered as much as peak values. Ozone concentration data for each city shows a unique pattern of distribution, central tendency, and also there is a wide variation among different ozone measures. Two different cities with the same annual mean concentration of ozone can experience very different distributions of ozone concentration within a year. Ozone measures also show a wide margin of variability as they are estimated from different ozone monitoring sites within each city. Ozone pollution statistics can be largely varied depending on the choice of measures, monitoring sites, and averaging time period. EPA's new ozone standard of 0.08 ppm averaged over an eight-hour appears to be more stringent than the current maximum ozone standard of 0.12 ppm averaged over one hour.

This study aimed to explore the social networks which married immigrant women have in Korea. Special attention was paid to factors such as individual, family, and migrant characteristics contributing to the different patterns of social networks. I drew upon the nationally representative data on 60,719 immigrant women married to Korean men from the '2009 Survey on Korean National Survey on Multicultural Families.' Results showed that the foreign wives tended to maintain a connection with our society through contact with their neighbors and participation in social gatherings. Findings also showed that the types of social networks by the number of trusted neighbors and meetings were diverse among the immigrant women. In addition, the factors differentiating the types were mostly associated with socioeconomic resources or Korean proficiency. More interestingly, the immigrant women's contacts with their family members in their homeland contributed to their maintenance of more active social networks. These results provided a useful outlook on the relationship between patterns of social networks and the characteristics of the married immigrant women, which eventually showed a heterogeneous nature among them. At the societal level, supportive systems for enriching immigrant women's social networks should be developed particularly in terms of not their dependency, but their potential contributions to our society.

The leakage of toxic chemicals impact seriously on human being and environment, therefore during their treatment process, a proper management system is necessary to control their toxic effect. This study was designed to suggest the management regulation that supports business managers and facilities management. There are no extra regulation to control emergency accidents and terrors in chemical facilities. Developed countries like USA operate the management standards to control the toxic chemical and facilities according to their toxicity and processes. In order to solve this problem, we have analysed the advanced nations standard methods of security in chemical plants to study the new security management regulation which helps to prevent the chemical accidents. Especially, in USA, CCPS (Center for Chemical Process Safety), SVA (Security Vulnerability Assessment) and RBPSs (Risk-Based Performance Standards) of DHS (Department of Homeland Security) were invest I gated. On the basis of the results, we have suggested the application methods of the security and safety regulation in Korea.
