  • In this article, we introduce a finite difference method for solving the Navier-Stokes equations in rectangular domains. The method is proved to be energy stable and shown to be second-order accurate in several benchmark problems. Due to the guaranteed stability and the second order accuracy, the method can be a reliable tool in real-time simulations and physics-based animations with very dynamic fluid motion. We first discuss a simple convection equation, on which many standard explicit methods fail to be energy stable. Our method is an implicit Runge-Kutta method that preserves the energy for inviscid fluid and does not increase the energy for viscous fluid. Integration-by-parts in space is essential to achieve the energy stability, and we could achieve the integration-by-parts in discrete level by using the Marker-And-Cell configuration and central finite differences. The method, which is implicit and second-order accurate, extends our previous method [1] that was explicit and first-order accurate. It satisfies the energy stability and assumes rectangular domains. We acknowledge that the assumption on domains is restrictive, but the method is one of the few methods that are fully stable and second-order accurate.

  • Well-integrated science instruction with art often motivates students to more engage in science learning and to freely express their thoughts and feelings on what they have learned in science classes. This study, therefore, attempted to explore Korean children's imaginary science drawings. Ninety elementary students ($3^{rd}-6^{th}$ graders) in Seoul, South Korea, participated in this study. The guiding research questions were 1) what overall characteristics of students' imaginary science drawings are and how these characteristics represent children's image of science, and 2) what educational value of children's imaginary science drawing activity as a case of science-art integration is. Data sources included a set of children's drawings and individual interviews with selected students. From the drawings, it was found that most of the subjects that children drew tended to be limited to the space. In addition, the children tended to assimilate science into technology that makes our life more convenient. We also found imaginary science drawing can be a good science-art integrated instruction method. Imaginary science drawing has educational benefits; one is a tool to investigate children's thoughts and knowledge of science while the other is method that motivate children to learn science effectively.

  • Two problems can be happened when we construct Integrated Project Support Environment for construction of software integration environment. The first is a problem about granularity of tool. Problems about interface of tools after combination phase which combine many functions into one and when we use some function of tool with other tools, we can't be use by closed interface. The second is a problem that can be happen when we gather data about process. When we measure the development process for enhancement of it, we can get data with tools, but current tools are not prepared to measurement of development process. In this study, we explained that process information tool is needed and proposed analysis and design methodology and evaluation standard. Finally, we considered and evaluated for problems which can be happened when construct environment which is based on this result of study.

  • Since the advent of Six Sigma in 1980's, Six Sigma is widely used in various industry areas, such as manufacturing, financial, government, and service, and proves its innovation ability and value by providing lots of success stories. Several researches have been conducted to adopt Six Sigma for Software Development and Software Quality Assurance-Software Six Sigma. Although the wide use of Six Sigma, there is no software tool to support the execution of Six Sigma Project. For this reason, the Quantitative Six Sigma Project Management is required to support for measuring and analyzing Six Sigma Projects, storing and reporting the results from Six Sigma Projects, and managing Six Sigma Projects through the whole process of, DMAIC or DMADV. In this paper, we introduce the design and implementation of a Quantitative Six Sigma Project Management Framework and Tool. The execution of Six Sigma Project based on Six Sigma Project Management Tool benefits the quantification, the systematization, and the integration.

  • Objective : The purpose of this study was to define a standard score of Sensory Processing Scale for Children (SPS-C) and its concurrent validity by correlation with the Short Sensory Profile (SSP). Methods : The subjects were children enrolled in nurseries and kindergartens in Busan and Gyeongnam. We defined the standard score of the SPS-C and identified its concurrent validity for 337 children. Both the SPS-C and SSP instruments were used to assess the children's sensory processing ability. The collected data were analyzed using SPSS 24.0. A statistical analysis was used to define the standard score for SPS-C based on the mean and SDs of -1 and -2. To identify the concurrent validity of the SPS-C, the correlation between it and SSP was measured using Pearson's correlation analysis. Results : The ranges of total standard scores on the SPS-C were classified as follows: 115~160 indicated "Typical Performance"; 105~114 indicated "Probable Difference"; and finally, 50~104 indicated "Definite Difference." Concurrent validity was ascertained using the Pearson correlation between the total scores of the SPS-C and the SSP; the Pearson correlation coefficient was .755, indicating a statistically significant correlation. Conclusion : This study suggests the standard score of the SPS-C for interpreting results in clinical settings and confirms that it is a valid tool for evaluating children's sensory processing ability.

  • It is important to develop new effective technologies to increase the interruption capacity and to reduce the size of a UB(Gas Circuit Breakers). Major design parameters such as nozzle geometries and interrupting chamber dimensions affect the cooling of the arc and the breaking performance. But it is not easy to test real GCB model in practice as in theory. Therefore, a simulation tool based on a computational fluid dynamics(CFD) algorithm has been developed to facilitate an optimization of the interrupter. Special attention has been paid to the supersonic flow phenomena between contacts and the observation of hat-gas flow for estimating the breaking performance. However, there are many difficult problems in calculating the flow characteristics in a GCB such as shock wave and complex geometries, which may be either static or in relative motion. Although a number of mesh generation techniques are now available, the generation of meshes around complicated, multi-component geometries like a GCB is still a tedious and difficult task for the computational fluid dynamics. This paper presents the CFD program using CFB-CAD integration technique based on Cartesian cut-cell method, which could reduce researcher's efforts to generate the mesh and achieve the accurate representation of the geometry designed by a CAD tools.

  • e-Science Service Integration Workbench is the core tool that enables IT-based computation and engineering researchers to collaborate their research activities via data sharing, by semi-automatically supporting the activities. Workbench provides the researchers with a scientific workflow by establishing the environment that is capable of finding, registering, composing, and executing services-legacy codes wrapped with grid services or web services-they need to use. In other words, designing their scientific workflow through the workbench, they can receive or share its final result with their collegues by submitting jobs they describe to computational resources such as supercomputers or grids or requesting an experiment. In this paper, we propose an implementation architecture of e-Science Service Integration Workbench to support grid services of Grid Middleware.

  • In this paper, we report a method of improving the productivity of lead wire fabricated through the rolling process by increasing its linear velocity. The most important point to consider when raising the linear velocity is that the original specifications must still be adhered to. In other words, the dimensional tolerance must be satisfied when increasing the linear velocity of the wire without causing cracks. However, if the linear velocity of the wire is increased, the degree of reduction must also be increased, which causes more damage to the wire and increases the load on its surface. Therefore, we studied a three step rolling process which can satisfy the specifications of the wire produced through the two step rolling process and improve the productivity. In this study, only the roll gap of the three-stage rolling roller is assumed to be a variable, while the other conditions are the same as the field conditions. In addition, through the PIANO (Process Integration, Design and Optimization) tool, the (optimum?) surface roughness and maximum stress are maintained.

  • This study analyzes the effects of programming-based TPACK education programs, designed by Kim and Lee (2019), on the teaching expertise of pre-service teachers. The research subjects were 40 pre-service teachers, divided into an experimental group and a control group. The experimental group underwent the programming-based TPACK education program, and the control group used an ICT-based TPACK education program. A test tool was used to measure not only teaching expertise but also teaching efficacy and self-efficacy beliefs about technology integration. As a result of the study, teaching expertise, teaching efficacy, and self-efficacy beliefs about technology integration improved significantly in the experimental group. The pretest showed no significant difference between the experimental group and the control group, but in the post-test, the experimental group showed significantly higher teaching expertise than the control group. These results showed that the programming-based TPACK education program is effective for developing teaching expertise in pre-service teachers.
