This article aims to introduce a representative case of convergence among art, technology and science, and look into the factors that contributed to its success. The focus is specifically brought to the cooperation between the Plantin Press and local painters in Antwerp in the Netherlands during the 16th century. The Plantin Press scored huge successes through collaboration with Flemish artists such as Rubens and Borcht. This helped the artists to use their talents in a new medium or to secure a job that appreciates their values. The Plantin Press outdid its competitors in the market through applying new techniques on its works. Great botany books also came out as a result of such convergence. The backdrop to the Netherlands appearing as the center of botanical studies in the 17th century is the concerted efforts of the painters that created quality illustrations and the publishers that knew how to use them efficiently.

The supply of housing can be understood through a close relationship with the urbanization phenomenon. Through industrialization and urbanization, many cities have implemented systems and policies for housing supply due to population concentration in cities, poor housing quality, and lack of housing. In the case of the Netherlands, the Housing Act was enacted in 1901 to improve the residential environment during the period when the population was concentrated in the city, and various efforts were made to expand the housing supply. Through this process, we understand the background of collective housing types in the Netherlands and analyze the application stages of contemporary residential housing planning in Rotterdam and Amsterdam. On the other hand, through the experience of Western society, we examine how to view the problem of multi-family housing types in our society, where the proportion of apartments is continuously increasing.

A variety of reduction labiaplasty techniques have been introduced to date, but no single technique will offer the optimal solution for every patient. Rather, the technique should be chosen based on anatomical, configurational, and technical considerations, as well as on patients' personal preferences regarded maintenance of the labial rim, maintenance of labial sensitivity, and prevention of iatrogenic thickening of the labium. We reviewed, defined, and assessed labial configurational variety, neurovascular supply, reduction techniques, and patient's preferences as the considerations relevant to the choice of labiaplasty technique. Based on this review, an algorithm was constructed that leads to a choice of reduction technique through five decisions to be made regarding (1) resection or (partial) retention of the labial free rim, (2) the measure of required labial width reduction, (3) labial vascular status, (4) prevention of iatrogenic labial thickening, and (5) preservation of labial sensibility. The choice of techniques includes edge trimming, central spindle form de-epithelialization or full-thickness resection, and three modifications of the wedge resection or de-epithelialization technique. These three modifications comprised a modified anterior resection or de-epithelialization combined with posterior flap transposition, a custom flask resection or de-epithelialization, and a modified posterior wedge resection or de-epithelialization combined with anterior flap transposition. Use of the five decisional steps and the inclusion of modifications of all three conventional reduction techniques offer an improved algorithm for the choice of labioplasty technique.

Since the Syrian Civil War in 2011, the number of refugees has been on the rise in Korea as well as worldwide. In addition to recognition of legal status for refugees, employment and education support, and qualification recognition are emerging as social issues. In this context, this study aims to compare the cases of Netherlands and Norway in terms of evaluation and recognition of refugees' qualifications. The findings of the study show that although there were concerns about the lack of official documents to verify the qualifications of refugees, the two countries have developed a special process for the evaluation and recognition for refugees respectively according to the Lisbon Recognition Convention. In addition, both countries have developed a recognition of prior learning system which has made the qualification recognition process flexible from a point of refugees. These experiences could be used as benchmarks for the Korean government which has a responsibility to develop its own qualification recognition system for refugees in the near future.

If we think about the form of housing architecture, we can find a general or typical type has been through the architectural history. because the formal transformation in housing architecture is very difficult. Recently, there are many housing works in powerful ocean state, netherlands that was different from the typical type in the form of housing architecture. This study focusing on the formal characteristics in such works. Such distinctive works in netherlands is the result from an attempt to fulfill the diverse needs of our contemporary society and in an effort to refuse the typical type of the modern architecture. The main purpose of this study is to reveal the meaning of typological transformation in the contemporary' housing architecture.

Transition toward sustainablity being in progress in a variety of areas including climate, energy, household, transportation. This study analyzed system transition and backcasting of its management with case of sustainable transportation, foods, household system transition in the Netherlands. Backcasting has become a popular approach for sustainability taking a more reflexive perspective and looking back to the participatory experiments. In the Netherlands, participatory backcasting utilized as s innovative approach for long-term strategy for sustainability, based on stakeholder involvement, construction of normative sustainable futures, stakeholder leaning. In this study, we can be understood that transition management requires the participation and contribution of business, government, research and the public & public interest groups and backcating is tool leading to a sustainable future vision, stakeholder involvement. To create a new path toward sustainablity, it requires integrated consideration of related policy perspectives and participatory backcasting aiming at system innovations for influencing transitions.

The majority of the described experimental results deal with relatively pure aluminium. Variations were made in the pretreatment of the aluminum substrates and an investigation was performed on the resulting changes in oxide layer composition and chemistry. Subsequently, the bonding behavior of the surfaces was investigated by using model adhesion molecules. These molecules were chosen to represent the bonding functionality of an organic polymer. They were applied onto the pretreated surfaces as a monolayer and the bonding behavior was studied using infrared reflection absorption spectroscopy. A direct and clear relation was found between the hydroxyl fraction on the oxide surfaces and the amount of molecules that subsequently bonded to the surface. Moreover, it was found that most bonds between the oxide surface and organic functional groups are not stable in the presence of water. The best performance was obtained using molecules, which are capable of chemisorption with the oxide surface. Finally, it was found that freshly prepared relatively pure aluminum substrates, which are left in air, rapidly lose their bonding capacity towards organic functional groups. This can be attributed to the adsorption of contamination and water to the oxide surface. In addition the adhesion of a typical epoxy-coated aluminum system was investigated during exposure to water at different temperatures. The coating was found to quite rapidly lose its adhesion upon exposure to water. This rapid loss of adhesion corresponds well with the data where it was demonstrated that the studied epoxy coating only bonds through physisorptive hydrogen bonding, these bonds not being stable in the presence of water. After the initial loss the adhesion of the coating was however found to recover again and even exceeded the adhesion prior to exposure. The improvement could be ascribed to the growth of a thin oxyhydroxide layer on the aluminum substrate, which forms a new, water-stable and stronger bond with the epoxy coating. Two routes for improvement of adhesion are finally decribed including an interphasial polymeric thin layer and a treatment in boiling water of the substrate before coating takes place. The adhesion properties were finely also studied as a function of the Mg content of the alloys. It was shown that an enrichment of Mg in the oxide could take place when Mg containing alloys are heat-treated. It is expected that for these alloys the (hydr)oxide fraction also depends on the pre-treatment and on the distribution of magnesium as compared to the aluminium hydroxides, with a direct impact on adhesive properties.

Recently, there has been growing social interest in the use of care farms as part of therapy for neurological or mental patients and regional innovation for rural areas. Care farm, which combines the health treatment and rural innovation perspectives, is important to establish a proper governance system for mutual collaboration with various stakeholders. However, there is still a lack of research on this. Therefore, this study designed the care farm governance framework and comparatively analyzed the governance between Netherlands paradise care farm and Belgium blue farm, which are major successful care farm cases. The results showed different governance system between Netherlands and Belgium care farm in terms of institutional and financial support, regional characteristics, structure, operation, and strategy. In Netherlands, as the central government-initiated therapy-centric, care farm governance is concentrated in treatment of patient mainly supported by Ministry of Health, Welfare and Sports under the law on social support. Whereas, in Belgium, as local government-initiated agriculture-centric, care farm governance is mainly focused to lead voluntary participation of agricultural cooperatives and medical institutions in regional area. This study provides a theoretical foundation of governance type and system for the care farm research and suggests guidelines of care farm governance for the governments like South Korea consider activating care farm.
