Psychological stress is a growing issue in work stress research because work stressors are closely related to depression； and depression, in turn, decreases organizational effectiveness. Considering such causal relationships of work stress, a comprehensive source to control work stress is needed for worksite mental well-being. This study was conducted to identify how social support at work controlled work stress and which characteristics of social support were effective on work stress reduction. The study participants were 240 workers employed in a public hospital in Georgia, U.S.A self-administered survey was given to employees with their pay slips, and followed by a hospital wide voice reminder for 7 days. Surveys were conducted over a 20-day period. The questionnaires asked about job demands, job control, social support at work, depression, job performance, absenteeism, and demographics. The social support construct was structured on the source of support at work and the kinds of support were provided. Statistical analyses were conducted in the structural equation modeling approach. Social support at work was directly related to high job control, low depression, and high job performance. High score of social support at work were significantly associated with high job control, low depressive symptoms, and high job performance. By source of support, only organizational support was positively related to high job control. Organizational support was more effective than supervisor and coworker support. Any stressors and their outcomes were not differenciated by the kinds of support. This result indicated that job control was influenced more by the source of support than the kinds of support provided at work； and the most efficient source of support was the organization. Organizational support was a strong factor in improving workers" perceived controllability of their jobs from a work stress reduction perspective.tive.

반도체 식각 전산모사에서는 플라즈마 입자를 생성하는 소스의 모델링이 필요하다. 본 논문에서는 플라즈마 식각 공정에서 사용하는 소스를 확률분포함수로 모델링하고, 몬테칼를로 방법을 이용하여 특정 프로프일의 플럭스를 계산하는 실험을 하였다. 소스의 모델링 파라미터로 소스와 셀 사이의 거리, 소스에서 방사하는 입자수가 있고, 플럭스 계산에 미치는 추가적인 파라미터로 프로파일 상의 셀의 수(셀의 면적)이 있다. 방사하는 입자 분포는 사용하는 소스의 물성에 따라 가우시안 분포와 코사인 분포로 모델링 할 수 있는데, 본 논문은 이들 각각에 대하여 파라미터를 바꿔가며 전산모사를 한 결과를 보인다. 오차율은 가우지안(Incident Flux)과 코사인분포(Incident Neutral Flux)에서 모두 입자 수의 증가에 따라 상당부분 감소하였으나 처리시간은 이보다 더 증가하였다. 셀수와 거리의 증가는 오차율을 약간 증가시켰고 처리시간도 증가시켰다. 본 논문의 실험 결과를 통해 처리 시간을 고려하여 적합한 플럭스의 계산을 유추할 수 있다.

Providing safe and readily available water is vital to maintain public health. One of the most prevalent methods to prevent the spread of waterborne diseases is applying chlorine injection to the treated water before distribution. During the water transmission and distribution, the chlorine will experience a reduction, which can imply potential risks for human health if it falls below the minimum threshold. The ability to determine the appropriate initial intensity of chlorine at the source would be significant to prevent such problems. This study proposes two methods that integrate hydraulic and water quality modeling to determine the suitable intensity of chlorine to be injected into the source water to maintain the minimum chlorine concentration (e.g., 0.2 mg/l) at each demand node. The water quality modeling employs the first-order decay to estimate the rate of chlorine reduction in the water. The first method utilizes a backtracking algorithm to trace the path of water from the demand node to the source during each time step, which helps to accurately determine the travel time through each pipe and node and facilitate the computation of time-dependent chlorine decay in the water delivery process. However, as a backtracking algorithm is computationally intensive, this study also explores an alternative approach using a water age. This approach estimates the elapsed time of water delivery from the source to the demand node and calculate the time-dependent reduction of chlorine in the water. Finally, this study compares the outcomes of two approaches and determines the suitable and effective method for calculating the chlorine intensity at the source to maintain the minimum chlorine level at demand nodes.

유한 단층 미끌림 역산에는 지진 변위 측지 자료와 그린 함수 행렬(Green's function matrix)을 주로 사용한다. 그린 함수 행렬은 일반적으로 오카다 모형(Okada, 1985)을 기반으로 한다. 그러나 최근 물리 기반 지진 모델링을 활용하여 그린 함수 행렬을 제작하고 유한 단층 미끌림 역산을 수행하는 연구가 활발하다. 물리 기반 지진 모델링은 다양한 물성(탄성, 점탄성, 탄소성 등)을 고려하여 현실적인 환경에서 지진을 모사할 수 있다는 장점이 있다. 물리 기반 유한요소 소프트웨어 PyLith는 단층을 구성하는 절점을 두 개로 나누어 지진을 모사할 수 있으므로 지진 모사 모델링에 적합하다. 하지만 PyLith는 격자망 생성 기능을 자체 제공하지 않아, 모형 내부에 수십~수백 개의 소단층과 관측점을 설정해야 하는 유한 단층 미끌림 역산 수행에는 어려움이 있다. 본 연구에서는 소단층과 관측점을 포함한 수치 모형을 제작하고, 지진 모사 모델링을 수행하여 그린 함수 행렬을 제작하는 일련의 과정을 연계하여 유한 단층 미끌림 역산의 편리성을 높이기 위해 CPInterface (COMSOL-PyLith Interface)를 개발하였다. CPInterface는 COMSOL의 격자 생성 능력과 PyLith의 지진 모사 능력을 결합하여 그린 함수 행렬을 자동으로 생성할 수 있다. CPInterface는 간단한 변수들로 모형 및 단층 정보를 조절할 수 있고, 지하 탄성 이상체와 GPS 관측점을 자유롭게 배치할 수 있다. 또한, 그린 함수 행렬을 생성하는 복잡한 과정을 간소화하여 더욱 편리하게 유한 단층 미끌림 역산을 할 수 있게 한다.

등가음원법은 일반적으로 실내에 위치한 음원에 의한 실내 음장을 모델링하기 위하여 원거리에 위치한 다수의 등가음원과 상대적으로 근방에 위치한 소수의 이미지음원들을 사용한다. 원거리음원은 일반적으로 실내 음장의 중심으로부터 적당히 먼 거리에 균일하게 위치시킨다. 이러한 원거리음원의 위치는 적절한 선택 여부에 따라, 계산 결과의 정확도와 이를 만족시키기 위해 필요한 음원의 수에 큰 영향을 미치게 된다. 본 연구에서는 등거리 상의 가상의 구형 표면에 위치시키는 기존의 방법 대신 모델링하는 실내 공간의 경계면과 닮은 꼴 형상으로 배치하여 그 영향을 조사하였다. 즉 가상의 직육면체 표면에 격자 형태로 균일하게 원거리음원들을 배치시키되, 음장의 중심으로부터의 거 리를 변화시켜가며 각 경우에 대하여 최적화 기법을 이용하여 최적의 원거리음원 위치들을 찾아내어 비교, 분석하였다.

Transboundary air pollution has recently become an area of increasing scientific interest and political concern as countries are receiving air pollutants from their neighbors. In order to gain a better understanding of the long-range transport processes of air pollutants and the source-receptor relationships among neighboring countries, an atmospheric transport model coupled with a RAMS(Regional Atmospheric Modeling System) model was applied to the East Asia region during the entire month of January 1993. The scalar transport option of the RAMS model was used to calculate special atmospheric constituents such as trace gases or aerosols. The sulfate production in clouds and rainwater and its removal processes by dry and wet deposition were considered. The sulfate budget from source regions to receptor regions was estimated by analysing the source-receptor relationships. When a specific receptor site revealed a sulfate value higher than the sulfate concentration based on its own source origin, this was taken to indicate long-range transport from another source region. The contribution ratio from various source region was calculated. The contribution ratio of dry and wet deposition was higher on the main continent of the East region. Furthermore, the high deposition amounts were identified on the west coast of Korea and the East China Sea.

The objective of this study was to estimate the $PM_{2.5}$ source apportionment at the Pinnacles National Monument IMPROVE site in western coastal USA. The PMF was applied to identify the existing sources and apportion the $PM_{2.5}$ mass to each source. To analyze local source impacts from various wind directions, the NPR analysis was performed using source contribution results with the wind direction values measured at the site. Also, PSCF was applied to identify the locations by point sources relative to the back trajectories. A total of 1,634 samples were collected from March 1988 to May 2004 by IMPROVE sampler and 32 chemical species were analyzed by PIXE, PESA, XRF, IC, and TOR methods. The PMF modeling identified seven sources and the average mass was apportioned to gasoline vehicle, secondary sulfate, aged sea salt, secondary nitrate, wood/field burning, diesel emission, and soil, respectively. In this study, the average mass was apportioned to gasoline vehicle (33.0%), secondary sulfate (25.7%), aged sea salt (17.8%), and secondary nitrate (10.1%). Also, this study suggests the possible role for source apportionment study of $PM_{2.5}$ at similar areas such as wildness, national park, and coastal areas in Korea.

The equivalent source method(ESM) is used for the calculation of the internal pressure field for an enclosure which can have arbitrary boundary conditions and nay include internal objects which scatter the sound field. The advantage of using ESM is that it requires relatively low computing cost and is easy to model the internal diffracting objects. Typical ESM modeling uses two groups of equivalent source positions. One group includes the first order images of the source inside the enclosure. The Positions of the other group are usually on a spherical surface some distance outside the enclosure. The normal velocity on the surfaces of the enclosure walls is evaluated at a larger number of positions than there are equivalent sources. The sum of the squared difference between this velocity and the expected is minimized by adjusting the strength of the equivalent sources. This study is on the optimal far field sources positions when using the equivalent source method. In general, the far field sources are evenly distributed on a surface of a virtual sphere which is centered at the enclosure with a sufficiently large radius. In this study. optimal far field source locations are searched using simulated annealing method for various radii of spheres where far field sources are located. Simulation results showed that optimally located sources with adequate distance away from the enclosure center gave better result than sources with even distribution even with a smaller number of far field sources.

The interdisciplinary research area of small scale energy harvesting has attracted tremendous interests in the past decades, with a goal of ultimately realizing self-powered electronic systems. Among the various available ambient energy sources which can be converted into electricity, wind energy is a most promising and ubiquitous source in both outdoor and indoor environments. Significant research outcomes have been produced on small scale wind energy harvesting in the literature, mostly based on piezoelectric conversion. Especially, modeling methods of wind energy harvesting techniques plays a greatly important role in accurate performance evaluations as well as efficient parameter optimizations. The purpose of this paper is to present a guideline on the modeling methods of small-scale wind energy harvesters. The mechanisms and characteristics of different types of aeroelastic instabilities are presented first, including the vortex-induced vibration, galloping, flutter, wake galloping and turbulence-induced vibration. Next, the modeling methods are reviewed in detail, which are classified into three categories: the mathematical modeling method, the equivalent circuit modeling method, and the computational fluid dynamics (CFD) method. This paper aims to provide useful guidance to researchers from various disciplines when they want to develop and model a multi-way coupled wind piezoelectric energy harvester.
