The lecture of the experimental designs consists of two main part-experimental designs and model analysis. Mostly, the progress of the visualization has been made on a model analysis. As the visualization of experimental designs, we can consider the visualization of Latin squares, supersaturated designs, and balanced incomplete block designs. We can propose the design plots as well as use the scatterplots and the scatterplot matrices for the visualization of experimental designs. Through the visualization of experimental designs, we can use the synergy effect in teaching the lecture of the experimental designs.

Because of the toxicity of hexavelant chromium ion, treatments of metallic surface with chromate compounds to retard corrosion are undesirable for safety control in industrial uses and protection of environment. In this study, we investigated several compounds such as inorganic, organic, and polymer materials in order to sub­stitute the chromate conversion treatment on steel sheet. The corrosion property was investigated in a salt spray tester with 3.5 $wt.{\%}\;NaCI\;at\;35^{\circ}C.$ The results showed that the zirconium/silane/polymer triple coatings on the galvanized steel exhibited a significant retardation of corrosion. Although the multicoating system needs a com­plexed processing, we can confirm a possibility of development of a chromate-free chemical conversion treat­ment for galvanized steel sheet.

The trade portal site is one of the innovative skills which makes it possible for trade companies to manage international trade activities more efficiently by using the newest information technology. Especially, trade portal site can be considerable help to small and medium-sized enterprises which have much difficulties in finding overseas buyers due to the lack of international marketing capabilities. This study attempts to present a comprehensive model about the determinants of e-Trust in domestic trade portal site and to suggest practical strategies for e-Trade. Therefore, a theoretical framework was presented by the literature review, and a empirical study was carried out through a questionnaire survey to those who have had experiences of visiting trade portal site. The empirical analysis had the following results. First, it reveals that reputation, web-site quality, transaction efficiency of the trade portal site have influence upon e-Trust dimension. On the other hand, perceived risk did not have significant relationship with e-Trust. Second, e-Trust had significant impact on willingness to depend on the trade portal site. And also, e-Trust had positive influence on performance of using which is measured by sales increase, information sharing, and synergy effect.

For the last decade, some leading groups of corporations in Korea have integrated and managed their Information Systems(IS) functions. Each group established a separate System Management(SM) company to manage the IS and tried to get a synergy effect from the integration. These attempts, however, were not initiated by any one company. Rather they were group efforts. Moreover, the previous measuring tools evaluated IS with the scope of technical performance or quantitative user satisfaction using an absolute scale. Obscure criteria were used in an attempt to present improvements in IS function which were qualitatively weak. This study evaluates whether integration has been efficient and successful. For this purpose, we evaluate the performance efficiency of IS functions with Data Envelopment Analysis(DEA) methodology. In comparison with prior methods, DEA presents the rate of relative efficiency, the efficiency frontier for improving inefficiency, the degree of improvement(slack), and the guideline to construct any benchmark(reference set). For our DEA evaluation, this study selected a leading group of 23 companies in Korea. Our experimental results are as follows. First, efficiency was rated low on average. It also demonstrates that the motivation of performance efficiency of IS functions is deficient. Second, the result of the test to find the existence of economy of scale and scope shows that the growth of an organization and industrial characteristics do not affect IS performance efficiency from the perspective of user satisfaction. Finally, the comparison with other evaluation approaches informs us that DEA can be a complementary evaluation method which supports other measuring tools.

Objectives: The purpose of this study is to compare the Korean-medical and the Western-medical psychotherapy on PTSD for improving the Korean-medical psychotherapy on this issue. Methods: We surveyed recent articles relating to psychotherapy on the incidence of PTSD. Results: Under the circumstances of this study, we note that applying the qigong therapeutics would be helpful when conducting relaxation training on the identified PTSD patients. We understand that taking a systematic desensitization style in the use of the kyungja-pyungji treatment is recommended. It would also be more effective to combine other treatments such as the use of the I-Jeong-Byeon-Gi Therapy and the five minds mutual restriction therapy. We have shown that by using the five minds mutual restriction therapy for the imagery rescripting has a better a synergy effect for optimum patient outcomes for patients who have been diagnosed with PTSD. Conclusions: Our study has shown that by improving the shortcomings of the Korean psychotherapy and utilizing Western psychotherapy's merits, we expect to increase the efficacy of the Korean psychotherapy with these recommendations for changes in this case.

The use of gas absorption refrigeration machine has considerably increased because of the shortage of the electric power in the summer and the regulation of freon refrigerant. Gas absorption refrigeration machine consists of a condenser, a heat exchanger. supplying pipes, a radiator etc, This system is likely to be corroded by acid. dissolved oxygen and gases, Cavitation erosion-corrosion by flow velocity of cooling water may happen in absorption refrigeration machine. In these cases. erosion and corrosion occur simultaneously. Then, it makes a serious damage with synergy effect. Therefore, this paper was studied on the cavitation damage of cupronickel(70/30) tube for gas absorption refrigeration machine, In the $30^{\circ}C$ tap water, linear polarization test and anodic polarization test were carried out for copper(C1220T-OL) and cupronickel(70/30) tube. Also, cavitation erosion-corrosion behavior of cupronickel (70/30) tube was considered, The main results are as following: (1) In the linear test, the corrosion current density of cupronickel(70/30) is higher than that of copper. (2) The erosion-corrosion rate of cupronickel(70/30) displayed later tendency than that of copper by vibratory cavitation in cooling water. (3) In cooling water, the progress mechanism of erosion-corrosion rate of copper and cupronickel(70/30) follows a pattern of incubation, acceleration, attenuation and a steady state period.

Background: The non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drug (NSAID) aspirin (acetylsalicylic acid) is an inhibitor of cyclooxygenase enzymes. Recent studies have shown that aspirin could be used as an anti-tumor drug. Triptolide, the major compound extracted from the Chinese herb Tripteryglum wilfordii Hook.f, has now been shown that it can inhibit tumor growth. The aim of this study was to analyze the anti-tumor efficiency of aspirin and triptolide in cervical cancer cells. Methods: Viability of cervical cancer cell lines was assessed by the MTT method at various concentrations of aspirin and triptolide. Siha and HeLa cell apoptotic analysis was performed by flow cytometry. Real time-PCR and Western Blotting were used to analyze the expression of Bcl-2/Bax, Cyclin D1 and p16. Results: Viability in the combination group was significantly decreased as compared with either drug used alone. Expression change of Bcl-2/Bax, CyclinD1 and p16 appeared to play an important role in the synergistic killing effect on cervical cancer cell apoptosis. Conclusion: Aspirin and triptolide combination treatment may have synergistic anti-tumor effects on cervical cancer cells.

In a conventional ICA(Independent Component Analysis) based face recognition method, PCA(Principal Component Analysis) first is used for feature extraction, ICA learning method then is applied for feature enhancement in the reduced dimension. It is not considered that a necessary component can be located in the discarded feature space. In the new ICA(NICA), learning extracts features using the magnitude of kurtosis (4-th order central moment or cumulant). But, the pure ICA method can not discard noise effectively. The synergy effect of PCA and ICA can be achieved if PCA is used for noise reduction filter. Namely, PCA does whitening and noise filtering. ICA performs feature extraction. Experiment results show the effectiveness of the new ICA method compared to the conventional ICA approach.

Mt. Yokmang landscape design awarded first in [North container terminal site furtherance construction in Busan new port], design competition sponsoring in the Korea Container Terminal Authority in 2005. Design guideline was to propose the symbol of new port and to establish landscape plan in consideration of view and geological location. Because landscape plan required establishment of restoration plan for cutting slope, Mt. Yokmang became the major object. The purpose of planning are as follows. The first purpose is to minimize existent natural environment damage, and the second, to connect with ambit and create new image. The third is to provide place of rest and interchange for local resident. Reflecting stratum structure and landscape characteristics, cutting slope consisted of [utilization slope], [presentation slope], [landscape slope], and [ecological slope]. Vegetation design applied ecological restoration method through restoration of stratum, and eve environment-friendly afforestation, planned program that can connect area with existing ecosystem. In process that decides form of the cutting slope, analyze view structure and visual exposure in various access routes, sensitivity etc. was accomplished. Also, symbolic tower(Ocean Polaris) that presents in architecture and landscaping features, night landscape planning could gain synergy effect by keeping consistence with landscape and ecological planning. Passing through final design and construction process, I expect that the Mt. Yokmang will be a new landmark in Busan new port.
