In this paper we investigate the origin of the variational calculus with respect to the extremal principle. We also study the role the extremal principle has played in the development of the calculus of variations. We deal with Dido's isoperimetric problem, Maupertius's least action principle, brachistochrone problem, geodesics, Johann Bernoulli's principle of virtual work, Plateau's minimal surface and Dirichlet principle.

In this paper, we investigate the origin of Euclid's fifth postulate. For this we analyze the Euclid's proof of the Pythagorean theorem, so form a hypothesis "The Euclid's fifth postulate originated from the Pythagorean theorem." And we test our hypothesis by some historical evidences.evidences.

This paper is a study on the life and clinical reasoning of Kim Goo Young (1958-2014). Offering a new perspective through his interpretation of Donguibogam (東醫寶鑑), Kim introduced his unique theory of Korean medicine, 'The Theory of Byeongin (病因論)'. Kim recognized the confusing situation of communication between people studying Korean medicine and tried to make a new standard based on the principle that many people can share. 'The Theory of Byeongin' offers a newly constituted "Donguibogam" focusing on 'Byeongin' (病因, pathologic origin) which can be translated as the cause of a disease. In so doing Kim recognized 'Byeongin' as the most important factor in 'Byeonjeung' (辨證, classifying the origin), or the classification method of symptoms. In addition, Kim recognized how 'Byeongin' was considered to be a diseased lifestyle, and tried interpreting. The patient's lifestyle to treat diseases. As a result, 'The Theory of Byeongin' is a theory consisting of an intuitive structure, reducing notable elements like Yin Yang Five Movement theory. The theory's significant characteristic is its easy application in clinical settings due the established core principles which are based on Kim's insight and clinical experience. This study contributes to the understanding of the theoretical and clinical development of Korean medicine through deeper studies on 'The Theory of Byeongin' and Kim's medical theory.

The history of investigation of the family Velutinidae from 1776 to the present day is briefly described in the last part of this review; the contemporary system of the family, consisting of 39 species and subspecies, belonging to 17 genera and subgenera, and three subfamilies, is presented here. A biogeographic analysis of the fauna has been made, the history of origin and development of the family, vertical distribution and relation to substrates have been described in this work.

The chemical and kinematic properties of stars in the Galactic halo provide crucial information on the origin of the Galactic halo as well as the assembly history of the Milky Way. In this study, we present metallicity distribution functions (MDFs) in different regions of the Galactic halo as well as the kinematic characteristics in each region. The different MDFs and kinematic properties of stars in investigated regions allow us to associate them with the possible progenitor dwarf galaxies discovered to date; hence the assembly history of the Galactic halo.

This study suggested implications by dividing the concept of brand origin into national image and manufacturing capacity image, verifying the direct impact of these variables on brand trust and brand loyalty, and verifying the difference between products with the effect on brand trust of brand origin, which is the result of verification. The specific implications of this paper are as follows. First, brand origin does not directly affect brand loyalty, but it can have a direct impact on the preceding variable, brand loyalty. This study may conclude that it is desirable to define the factors that affect the purchase selection indirectly through the assessment of product properties or positive effects on brand image rather than having a direct impact on product purchase or selection. Second, the difference in brand origin influence by product characteristics was very evident. Past studies were limited to a few products, so pan-product testing was not conducted, and the empirical power was judged to be limited, so this study included a variety of products and tried to detect differences between products through actual empirical research. Involvement and self-congruity have been presented with results that can be judged as important variables for brand origin to affect brand performance and variables. Looking at the role of the brand origin for each product characteristic by distinguishing between product characteristics and whether or not products related to quality, history, authenticity, etc., the product recognized as high quality and the product recognized as having high integrity showed higher effect of the brand origin, but history was a product characteristic that did not show the effect of the brand origin.

Anomalous origin of the coronary artery from the pulmonary artery is a rare congenital coronary artery disease and the origin of the left coronary artery from the pulmonary artery represents the commonest form of these unusual lesions. Because of differences in symptomatology, clinical course and prognosis, this malformation has been divided into infant type[Bl-and-White-Garland syndrome] and adult type on the basis of the absence or presence of collateral circulation between the right and left coronary artery. The latter type has been reported relatively few cases. A 21-year-old male was admitted to the Yeungnam University Hospital, due to study of incidentally noticed heart murmur. At that time he was asymptomatic and past medical history was noncontributory. Chest roentgenogram was within normal limit and electrocardiogram was consistent with hypertrophy of left ventricle. Echocardiogram and aortogram demonstrated markedly dilated and tortuous right coronary artery and anomalous origin of the left coronary artery from the pulmonary artery. To prevent arteriosclerosis, progressive myocardial infarction, infection and aneurysmal rupture, Takeuchi operation which establish a two coronary system by transpulmonary arterial reconnection of the anomalous left coronary artery was done. Postoperative course was uneventful.

Based upon the previous heritage in the complete development of the infrared imaging spectrometer, NISS (Near-infrared Imaging Spectrometer for Star formation history) onboard NEXTSat-1, we are participating in the NASA MIDEX mission (PI Institute: Caltech), the all-sky infrared spectro-photometric surveyor SPHEREx (Spectro-Photometer for the History of the Universe, Epoch of Reionization, and Ices Explorer). The SPHEREx will provide us the first all-sky infrared spectro-photometric data set to probe the origin of our Universe, to explore the origin and evolution of galaxies, and to explore whether planets around other stars could harbor life. After the SPEHREx have passed the PDR (Preliminary Design Review) on this September, the fabrication of flight hardware will be started soon. As an international partner, KASI takes part in the hardware development, the operation and the science for the SPHEREx. Here, we report the status of the SPHEREx project and the progress in the Korean participation.

Safflower is a world-wide plant for multiple uses. flower of safflower is honghwa(紅花) which has been used for heart disease in oriental medicine. but its seed was not used in oriental medicine. after the publication of "Shinyak(神藥)" - the late 1980s, its seed(紅花子, hongwhassi) was known as good for bone fracture, osteoporosis and menopausal disorders. so many researchers studied hongwhassi and delivered lots of papers. the concern of each paper is different. this paper is a review paper. this paper studied documentary records about hongwhassi, and analyzed hongwhassi research trend. the trend consists of cultivation, ingredient analysis, osteoporosis, atherosclerosis, periodontal ligament and phytoestrogen. many papers lack of information about plant origin. so this paper supplements the standard form of plant origin(when sowing, where grow up, which direction, what kind etc).
