  • Survivin, an apoptosis inhibitor/cell-cycle regulator, is critically required for suppression of apoptosis and ensuring normal cell division in the G2/M phase of the cell cycle. It is highly expressed in a cell cycle-regulated manner and localizes together with caspase-3 on microtubules within centrosomes. Whether survivin is a physiologically relevant caspase inhibitor has been unclear due to the difficulties with obtaining correctly folded survivin and finding right conditions for inhibition assay.(omitted)

  • Currently, a life cycle cost estimates(LCCE) is the most important factor in weapon system acquisition process. However, operation and maintenance(O&M) cost related studies are insufficient from the previous literature survey. O&M cost consists of various cost factors such a man power, maintenance and direct & indirect support costs. We have known that spare-parts cost is a key factor in the O&M cost. In this paper, we developed the spare-parts cost estimating relationships(CERs) of fixed-wing aircraft and armored vehicle weapon systems which include 4 historical cost drivers ; system acquisition cost, deterioration rate, localization rate, mission characteristic. Furthermore, we proposed the application methodologies that O&M cost estimating, total life cycle cost estimating and determination of the economic life using the spare-parts CERs.

  • Keeping pace with the speed of development of science & technology domain, the domain terms continuously repeat the step of creation and extinction. This study tries to define term life cycle and analyze extracted terms from a large corpus with the viewpoint. We chose 'ETNEWS' corpus which includes about 17 million Eojeols for 12 years because it is easy to inspect the transition of term life cycle and the corpus represents computer, IT, and electrotechnology domains. This study acquired several useful conclusions including the relation between specificity and life of terms. We expect that term life cycle will contribute to analyze the competition of similar technologies and determine which term be registered into general dictionary.

  • In rapidly changing educational technology and trends, services providing educational digital contents have been focused on offering new contents customized on the state-of-the-art technology and trends, rather than re-evaluating or eliminating the contents on service based on the changed topics and video quality. This study explores domestic cases about educational digital contents in order to draw implications on proper life-cycle models and effective re-evaluation periods for the quality assurance of the contents. To achieve this objective, representative services in primary-secondary, higher, and lifelong education sectors were selected, and experts in the services were participated in focused group interview. Based on the interview results, the re-evaluation process and life-cycle issues in the management of contents were analyzed according to the educational levels and the implications on the life-cycle models were drawn. This study contributes to establishing a basis for the systematic life-cycle policy of the services in order to make more sustainable management of the digital contents.

  • The demand for light-rail construction projects has recently been increasing, and they are mostly supervised by private construction companies. Therefore, a private construction company that aim to raise gains from the operation of the facilities during the contract period greater than what they invested should b able to accurately calculate the costs from the aspect of Life Cycle Cost (LCC). In particular, a light-rail transit bridge that has a heavier portion from the aspect of the cost of light-rail transit construction requires a more accurate calculation method than the conventional LCC calculation method. For this, an LCC analysis model was developed and a cost breakdown structure was suggested based on literature review. The construction costs by shape of the upper part of a light-rail transit were calculated based on the cost breakdown system presented in this paper, and the cost generation cycle and cost unit price were collected and analyzed based on records on maintenance costs, rehabilitation and replacement. In addition, after forming some hypotheses in order to perform the LCC analysis, economic evaluation was conducted from the aspect of the LCC by using performance data by item.

  • Clean Technology goes beyond Clean-UP (or "End of PiPe) Technologies to include Pollution prevention, waste minimisation, and cleaner production. However, the concept of Clean Technology goes deeper than changes in technology, to ways in which human needs can be satisfied sustainably. In other words, Clean Technology, concentrates on delivering a human benefit rather than making a product. Introducing cleaner technology may therefore involve new commercial relationships as well as new technological practices. In some economic sectors, this involves leasing or providing a service rather than selling a product. Life Cycle Assessment (LCA) is an important tool in Clean Technology. LCA involves determining all the resources used and all the wastes and emissions produced in providing the human benefit. Use of LCA ensures that improved environmental performance in one part of the Life Cycle is not achieved merely at the expense of more environmental damage elsewhere. Going beyond LCA, the concepts of Life Cycle Design and "metabolised" use of materials are approaches to obtain maximum benefit from materials as they pass through the human economy. "Closed-loop" use can be a component of clean technology. Looking beyond simple re-use and recycling, a material may pass through a "cascade of uses". typically a series of applications with progressively lower performance specifications. Closed-loop use necessarily involves a change in commercial practice, because the material or product must be recovered after use.

  • This study focuses on investigating the importance of managing greenhouse gas emissions from global energy consumption, specifically examining domestic targets for clean hydrogen production. Using life cycle assessment, we evaluated reductions in global warming potential and assessed the carbon neutrality contribution of the domestic hydrogen sector. Transitioning from brown or grey hydrogen to blue or green hydrogen can significantly reduce emissions, potentially lowering CO2 equivalent levels by 2030 and 2050. These research findings underscore the effectiveness of clean hydrogen as an energy management strategy and offer valuable insights for technology development.

  • The purpose of this study was to identify the relation of health behaviors and the quality of life by life cycle of hypertensive patients. This study was conducted by analyzing secondary data with data from the 2017 Community Health Survey. The subjects were total of 62,056 who were diagnosed with hypertension and analyzed using the SPSS WIN 20.0 program. As a result of the study, As a result of the study, first, hypertension treatment and drug compliance were significantly lower in adulthood than in middle-aged and older adults. Second, it was confirmed that the quality of life score by life cycle was the highest in adulthood and decreased as age increased. Third, the quality of life according to health behaviors differed according to drinking, exercise, and low-salt diet throughout the life cycle. Considering the results presented in this study, it is suggested that health education by life cycle is essential for lifelong health management of hypertensive patients. In particular, it is considered that a convergence approach such as education and medical approaches will be needed to develop measures to increase drug compliance in adult hypertensive patients and to have healthy health behaviors to improve quality of life.

  • The recent increase in digital audio media has greatly expanded the size and diversity of sound data, which has increased the importance of sound data analysis in the digital forensics process. However, the lack of standardized procedures and guidelines for sound data analysis has caused problems with the consistency and reliability of analysis results. The digital environment includes a wide variety of audio formats and recording conditions, but current audio forensic methodologies do not adequately reflect this diversity. Therefore, this study identifies Life-Cycle-based sound data elemental technologies and provides overall guidelines for sound data analysis so that effective analysis can be performed in all situations. Furthermore, the identified elemental technologies were analyzed for use in the development of digital forensic techniques for sound data. To demonstrate the effectiveness of the life-cycle-based sound data elemental technology identification system presented in this study, a case study on the process of developing an emergency retrieval technology based on sound data is presented. Through this case study, we confirmed that the elemental technologies identified based on the Life-Cycle in the process of developing digital forensic technology for sound data ensure the quality and consistency of data analysis and enable efficient sound data analysis.

  • The influence of pre-strain on low cycle fatigue behavior of Fe-18Mn-0.05Al-0.6C TWIP steel was studied by conducting axial strain-controlled tests. As-received plates were deformed by rolling with reduction ratios of 10 and 30%, respectively. A triangular waveform with a constant frequency of 1 Hz was employed for low cycle fatigue test at the total strain amplitudes in the range of ${\pm}0.4\;{\sim}\;{\pm}0.6$ pct. The results showed that low-cycle fatigue life was strongly dependent on the amount of pre-strain as well as the strain amplitude. Increasing the amount of prestrain, the number of reversals to failure was significantly decreased at high strain amplitudes, but the effect was negligible at low strain amplitudes. A new model for predicting fatigue life of pre-strained body has been suggested by adding ${\Delta}E_{pre-strain}$ to the energy-based fatigue damage parameter. Also, high-cycle fatigue lives predicted using the low-cycle fatigue data well agreed with the experimental ones.
