In this study, the value of numerical analysis was compared to the measured value of horizontal displacement during construction. And also, the value was reviewed by comparing with numbers calculated by SUNEX program and EXCAV program. When comparing to suggested values of the maximum horizontal displacement in clayey layer, the displacement caused by the IPS system is larger than one by the Strut girder type system. When comparing the result of SUNEX program to that of EXCAV program, the SUNEX program interprets larger value. It could be concluded the result of SUNEX program is closer to the suggested value, 0.5%H, in clayey layer. The result also shows that the internal friction angle(${\Phi}$) is the key factor of developing horizontal displacement rather than type of supporting systems or materials. That means small horizontal displacement occurs in sandy layer having large value of the internal friction angle, whereas vice versa in clayey layer having small value of the internal friction angle. Therefore, the result of EXCAV program is larger in sandy layer and vice versa in clayey layer. When comparing the measured result during construction to the value of 0.5%H, the measured result is 1.4 times greater than the value of 0.5%H. In contrast, the result of SUNEX program is only 78.1% of the value of 0.5%H and the one of EXCAV program is just 18.1% of that. This result shows the calculated value by SUNEX or EXCAV program is smaller than the observed value by measuring during construction. In result, more careful attention is needed to determine the behavior of the ground. To better analyze the behavior of the ground, more precise finite element method is required.

The purpose of this study was to analyze the effects of consumers' fashion design evaluation factors on design value and brand loyalty. After confirming a research hypothesis, 247 people were selected as subjects for empirical analysis, and the results of the study are as follows. As a result of the analysis of 'the influence of consumer's fashion design evaluation factors on design value', the fashion design evaluation factors of 'convenience', 'social activity usefulness' and 'fashion ability' had an effect on the emotional design value. 'Convenience', 'functional usefulness', 'social activity usefulness', 'fashionableness' and 'aesthetic' factors affected the rational design value. 'Convenience', 'fashionableness', 'aesthetic' and 'psychological self-conformity' had a positive (+) effect on kinesthetic design values. As a result of the analysis of 'Influence of consumer's fashion design value on brand loyalty', 'emotional design value', 'rational design value' and 'kinesthetic design value' affect attitude brand loyalty, and 'emotional design value' and 'kinesthetic design value' affect brand loyalty. It was found that 'kinesthetic design value' has an effect on behavioral brand loyalty. As a result of the analysis of 'the effect of consumer attitude brand loyalty on behavioral brand loyalty', it was analyzed that attitude brand loyalty had a statistically significant positive (+) effect on behavioral brand loyalty.

This study examined the effects of the service quality of fine dining restaurants on the service value and customer satisfaction by targeting 310 customers with experience in using fine dining restaurants in Seoul. The results of this study are as follows. First, the quality of the physical environment and interactions and the result of fine dining restaurants had positive (+) effects on the service value. Second, the quality of the physical environment and interactions and the result of fine dining restaurants had positive (+) effects on customer satisfaction. Third, the service value had positive (+) effects on customer satisfaction. According to the result of this study, when customers visit fine dining restaurants, evaluations of the service quality, such as interior design, kindness, accessibility, pleasant environment, and good quality of food, are very important elements. The service quality has been verified to be a very important factor when evaluating fine dining restaurants. Overall, the result of this study can be used to develop measures for improving the service quality.

Background: The purpose of this study is to emphasize the importance and necessity of the government's old-age preparation service by measuring the economic value of the old-age service and the policy direction and policy implications of the government's old-age preparation service project. Methods: Contingent Valuation Method (CVM) was used as an analytical method. CV methodology was used to calculate the Willingness to pay (WTP) for old-age preparation service and its value was estimated and the economic benefit of the project was estimated. Results: As a result of the analysis, the average monthly payment amount for the old service was calculated as 5,100 won, and the annual average payment amount was estimated to be 61,197.1 won. Conclusion: The present value of the benefit for 10 years with the discount rate of 5.5% is 484,651 won. Based on the value of peruser benefit, the total benefit value calculation result of the old-age preparation service considering the Willingness to pay for the next 10 years shows that the total benefit value of the old service, which occurs during the period from 2016 to 2025(10 years) was estimated at 415.1 billion won. As a result of calculating the benefit for each scenario, the present value of basic service is higher in all scenarios than the linked service.

The activated partial thromboplastin time (APTT) is used primarily to evaluate coagulation abnormalities in the intrinsic pathway. The proper specimen is very important factor for precise results of blood coagulation analysis. The objective of this study was to get to the conclusion of whether to analyze again and to collect blood sample over again when APTT result shows below the reference value. We evaluated 126 samples showing a value below 20.0 sec at ATPT result, which consist of 48 males and 78 females candidates during night duty from March 2012 to December 2012. Average comparisons of APTT result between first and retested analysis among study subjects were significantly different in male samples. APTT results comparison of recollected subjects among clotted samples were also significantly different with both sexes (p<0.000). We suggest that we should carefully check the samples to get accurate results and collect samples again in case of only obtaining improper samples; even though the APTT result show below reference value.

In acquiring and transferring a superior knowledge assesing the intermediate result value of a competitive R&D project is very important for a firm engaging in R&D. Most existing literatures on R&D evaluation are concerned with project selection and resource allocation. In this paper the stage of an R&D project is classified into research, exploratory development, and development. And a model is suggested which evaluates the intermediate result value before completion of development stage under duopoly and oligopolistic competition. Assessed value of the intermediate result transferred to the next tier company can be used as a minimum acceptable price to the inventor when more advanced knowledge acquired through R&D is transferred to the next tier one. The model suggested is composed of structural variables including research cost, success rates, potential profits, discount rate degree of competition. By using exponential distribution for invertion process time in each stage, we derive a formula that can assess the value of the intermediate result, and we demonstrate how the model can be applied to a competitive R&D situation through an example.

This paper presents an efficient filtering system for a metastable state-based true random number generator. To output a result with high randomness, we use loop-storage for storing the value of metastability. During the metastable state, the output value is accumulated to the storage. When the non-metastable state arises, the stored metastable value will be used for output instead of the result of the non-metastable state. As a result, we can maintain high entropy together with the original throughput.
