We propose an optical configuration of a vertical alignment (VA) liquid crystal (LC) cell to eliminate the light leakage in the diagonal direction. VA LC cell has an excellent contrast ratio in the normal direction due to the no phase-retardation. However, change of the phase-retardation occurs in all directions, which causes the light leakage and deteriorates the characteristics of the dark state. We designed the LC cell structure composed of multiple combinations with two A-plates and two C-plates in order to achieve wide viewing property on the Poincare sphere. From calculations, we show that the proposed structure can improve the viewing angle characteristics by compensating for the light leakage in all directions.

The cylindrical shells are mainly used in the nuclear energy structure, pressure vessel, boiler and so on. When designing of shell structures, predicting the structure change under variety boundary conditions are necessary for estimating the safety. Design variables for the design engineer include multiple material systems and boundary conditions, in addition to overall structural design parameters. Since the vibration of stiffened cylindrical shell is an important consideration for structures design, the reliable prediction method and design methodology should be required. In this study, the optimum design of stiffened cylindrical shell for maximum natural frequency was studied by analytic and numerical method.

In this paper, effect of interpenetrating polymer network(IPN) introduction on the dielectric properties, heat proof properties, internal structure and defects of the Epoxy/SiO$_2$composite materials, were investigated. we reported a relation between network structures and electrical properties, especially dielectric characteristics with variation of network structures for epoxy composite materials. According to experimental results, the specimens which have single network structures have lower dielectric constant than interpenetrating polymer network(IPN) specimens, but have relatively larger dependency to variation of temperature and frequency. It was confirmed that change of structures is attained by introducing of IPN to insulating materials. Therefore it is counted that introduction of multiple structure including IPN is necessary to improve heat proof and electrical properties.

For decades, in-memory data structures have been designed for DRAM-based main memory that provides symmetric read/write performances and has no limited write endurance. However, such data structures provide sub-optimal performance for NVM as it has different characteristics to DRAM. With this motivation, we rethink a conventional red-black tree in terms of its efficacy under NVM settings. The original red-black tree constantly rebalances sub-trees so as to export fast access time over dataset, but it inevitably increases the write traffic, adversely affecting the performance for NVM with a long write latency and limited endurance. To resolve this problem, we present a variant of the red-black tree called a hierarchical balanced binary search tree. The proposed structure maintains multiple keys in a single node so as to amortize the rebalancing cost. The performance study reveals that the proposed hierarchical binary search tree effectively reduces the write traffic by effectively reaping the high capacity of NVM.

In this paper, the visual tracking system for arbitrary shaped moving object is proposed. The established tracking system can be divided into model based method that needs previous model for target object and image based method that uses image feature. In the model based method, the reliable tracking is possible, but simplification of the shape is necessary and the application is restricted to definite target mod el. On the other hand, in the image based method, the process speed can be increased, but the shape information is lost and the tracking system is sensitive to image noise. The proposed tracking system is composed of the extraction process that recognizes the existence of moving object and tracking process that extracts dynamic characteristics and shape information of the target objects. Specially, active contour model is used to effectively track the object that is undergoing shape change. In initializatio n process of the contour model, the semi-automatic operation can be avoided and the convergence speed of the contour can be increased by the proposed effective initialization method. Also, for the efficient solution of the correspondence problem in multiple objects tracking, the variation function that uses the variation of position structure in image frame and snake energy level is proposed. In order to verify the validity and effectiveness of the proposed tracking system, real time tracking experiment for multiple moving objects is implemented.

(Fe, Co)/(Pd, Pt, Cu, Ag)로 이루어진 금속 다층박막에 대한 자기광학 Kerr 효과(${\theta}_{k}$) 스펙트럼을 박막내에서 빛의 다중간섭 이론을 적용하여 계산하였고, 그 결과를 보고된 실험값과 비교하였다. Co/Pd 다층막의 경우, ${\theta}_{k}$ 스펙트럼의 조성에 따른 파장 의존성에 대한 계산값이 서로 잘 일치하였으며, Fe/Cu 및 Fe/Ag 다층막에 있어서는 Cu와 Ag의 광흡수단 영역에서 다층막 고유의 새로운 peak가 나타나는 실험현상을 계산결과로 설명이 가능하였다. 그러나 Co/Pt 다층막의 경우에는 실험으로 측정된 300 nm파장 영역에서의 거대한 자기 광학 효과를 다중간섭이론으로는 설명할 수 없었으며, 이는 Co 또는 Pt 고유의 광학정수가 다층막을 이루면서 변화되어 나타나는 현상으로 생각된다.

This Study was dosigned to test the relationship between effectiveness of nursing organization and related variables of organization on the perspectives of total quality management, The data were collected through self reported questionnaires from 138 nurses working in, 288 patients hospitalized in one tertiary hospital in Seoul from May 30 to October 10 in 1996. The data were analyzed by using the pc-SAS program. The information was obtained of descriptive statistics, correlation analysis, multiple regression, ANOVA & Tukey's multiple comparison test. Results showed that the managing change, the managing job design, the managing conflict, the formation and the centralization of nursing organization structure were shown to be relating variables for nurses' job satisfaction. Especially the managing change was the predictor of nurses' job satisfaction, It explained 57% of total variance. According to clustor analyses of the variables of the managing change, the managing job design, the managing conflict, the nursing units were divided three clusters and according to ANOVA, there was significint difference in nurses' job satisfaction The nurses' job satisfaction was higher in the nursing units revealed to have high job management score. But there was no significant difference in patient satisfaction among three clusters.

The age structure has been experiencing substantial change due to the decreased birth rate as well as the increased life expectancy. Gorge Magnus, an English economist, casts warnings of population ageing which has the potential of huge socioeconomic impact human society has never experienced before. The prediction that proportion of elderly people in need of oral health care will increase substantially is a new challenge to dentists in the future. The old paradigm that the aged person is just the person who was born earlier and needs the same conventional oral health care should be shifted to the new one. Elderly people tend to express their political interest related with health care system by actively participating in the national elections. The need to sustain economic status for the extended life span makes them seek eagerly esthetic health care to maintain sound social function. Most of them are under multiple chronic diseases and take related medicines. In addition, many studies report about mental change as well as physical change among the aged people. Since the prevalence of dental diseases among the aged is higher than other chronic devastating diseases, the aged seeking oral health care will increase. The aged who has different physical and psychological status as well as chronic disease and related medicine will show unexpected response to the conventional oral health care. In addition, the impact of tooth loss is substantial physically, mentally and emotionally. Dentist should prepare different approaches for the elderly dental patient.

Cracks in plate-like structures are some of the main reasons for destruction of the entire structure. In this study, a novel two-stage methodology is proposed for damage detection of flexural plates using an optimized artificial neural network. In the first stage, location of damages in plates is investigated using curvature-moment and curvature-moment derivative concepts. After detecting the damaged areas, the equations for damage severity detection are solved via Bat Algorithm (BA). In the second stage, in order to efficiently reduce the computational cost of model updating during the optimization process of damage severity detection, multiple damage location assurance criterion index based on the frequency change vector of structures are evaluated using properly trained cascade feed-forward neural network (CFNN) as a surrogate model. In order to achieve the most generalized neural network as a surrogate model, its structure is optimized using binary version of BA. To validate this proposed solution method, two examples are presented. The results indicate that after determining the damage location based on curvature-moment derivative concept, the proposed solution method for damage severity detection leads to significant reduction of computational time compared with direct finite element method. Furthermore, integrating BA with the efficient approximation mechanism of finite element model, maintains the acceptable accuracy of damage severity detection.

최근 들어 시설투자를 통하여 대중교통중심의 교통체계로 전환을 시도하는 지방자치단체가 점차 늘어나고 있다. 그러나 장기적으로 지속적인 대중교통수송분담율의 제고를 위하여 대중교통 역세권의 토지이용체계를 대중교통중심으로 전환하는 것이 중요하다. 본 연구의 목적은 도시공간구조를 고려하여 서울 수도권 지하철 역세권에 대하여 역 주변에 거주하는 잠재적 이용자를 최대한 수용할 수 있도록 역세권의 공간범위를 설정하는 방안을 모색하는데 있다. 이를 위하여 본 연구에서는 2002년 서울시에서 수행한 가구통행실태조사의 통행자료를 이용하여 지하철통행시간과 보행접근시간의 상관관계를 분석하였다. 그 결과 역세권의 공간적 범위를 결정하는 보행접근시간은 지하철통행시간과 밀접한 관계를 가지나 공간적 위계에 따라 다르다는 것을 발견하였고, 지하철통근자의 개인속성도 공간구조적 특성과 함께 보행접근시간에 차별적으로 영향을 미침을 확인하였다. 본 연구의 결과를 대중교통중심의 개발정책에 반영할 경우 지하철의 안정적인 이용률 제고에 기여할 것으로 기대한다.
