Purpose: This experimental study aimed to solve the problem of discomfort and stably fix the bandage. A new self-adhesive bandage was manufactured to reduce the inconveniences associated with the plaster bandage. We compared the associated stability between the plaster bandage and the new self-adhesive bandage. Methods: The traditional elastic bandage (traditional EB; i.e., plaster bandage) and modified elastic bandage (modified EB; i.e., new self-adhesive bandage) were applied to 30 people each. We measured the time of preparation and attachment for traditional TB and attachment for modified TB. A 4kg cattle bell was fixed to each bandage to compare their respective stability levels. Results: The speed for the traditional EB was 28.93(±9.28)sec (mean 25.56s) and 6.13(±1.81)sec for the modified EB (mean 5.95sec). The stability values were 1.49(±.77)min for the traditional EB (mean 1.31min) and 26.22(±9.04)min for modified EB (mean 1.31min). The differences in speed and stability were statistically significant. Conclusion: Compared to the traditional EB, applying the modified EB could solve the attachment inconvenience and provide stable maintenance.

Chang'an (Chinese: 长安三万里), also known as 30,000 Miles from Chang'an, is a 2023 Chinese 3D animated historical drama film directed by Xie Junwei and Zou Jing.This thesis aims to explore the visual expression of traditional culture in the 3D animated film Chang'an as an example to reveal the reasons for the success of this type of film. The study analyses in detail the design of the character models and costumes, as well as the use of the traditional landscape painting technique of 'white space' in the composition of the screen from the visual aspect. Through the analysis of character design and screen composition, the thesis concludes that the success of Chang'an lies in its elaborate visual design and clever use of traditional culture, which makes it a 3D animation film with both artistic and commercial values. Finally, the thesis concludes that the production of a successful 3D animation film needs to combine the visual elements of 3D animation with traditional culture in order to win audience recognition and achieve commercial success.

The creative energy of the Korean women who pursued spiritual artistic practices under the limited situation of male-dominated confucian society in the Chosun Dynasty(AD 1392 - AD 1910) constituted the background for the development of Gubang Craft. Gubang Craft represented their artistic abilities, moral and family values, and the pursuit of self-esteem. Especially embroidery successfully showed four main elements of Gubang Craft such as embellishment, diversity, femininity, and craftsmanship. This paper is designed to explore how the traditional elements of embroidery works are restored and have influence on the modern Korean fiber art.

Underground flexible pipes for electric cables are subject to external loads and surrounding soil pressure. Particularly, strain of flexible pipes is of great concern in terms of safety and maintenance for electric cables. In this paper, stress and strain of flexible pipes with various depth are calculated using traditional formula and FEM analysis. The results show that theoretical values are more conservative in strain whereas FEM analysis gives larger stress. Considering the strain criteria - 3.5 %, maximum, flexible pipes can be buried at the range of 50cm to 5m in depth without additional soil improvement.

Activation energies for plastic deformation calculated from traditional phenomenological equations have been criticized frequently since the values are different by authors, and also by experimental conditions. The reasons of different activation enthalpies are clarified in this study. Our method for calculating activation enthalpies based on the authors' theory of plastic deformation was presented and discussed. The method was applied to various cases of alloys, the calculated activation enthalpies are listed and compared with the activation energies obtained by the traditional methods in order to show the reasonableness of our method. The physical meaning of the activation enthalpies which we found was clarified.

A variety of traditional costumes have been developed in Asia due to different natural and cultural environments and they are still worn by people in many areas. Traditional costumes in Asia have been formed under the influence of various ideologies, as well as technology and social structure. Three Asian religions(Buddhism, Hinduism and Islam), which have undeniably strong influence on traditional Asian cultures, have great effects on the styles of traditional costume in each region of Asia. The purpose of this study is to compare the characteristics and aesthetic values of traditional Asian costumes. To do this, the author used images of traditional costumes, which were taken in person by the author, in each region of Asia as reference. Unlike the traditional costumes in the West, which expose the body shape, traditional Asian costumes have nonstructural features in construction, form and wearing rules. They are also decorated with religious symbols and other ornaments, which is different from functional and non-decorative modern clothes. Each traditional Asian costume has unique characteristics. The costume under the influence of Buddhism shows the beauty of concealment that features trans-spatiality and abundant silhouette. On the other hand, the Hindu costume shows the beauty of symbolization represented by very colorful and complex ornaments, while costume in the Islam regions shows the beauty of restraint with clothes that wrap up the body in accordance with its strict religious discipline. Asian religions also represent philosophy, culture as well as an ethnic group. They have influenced entire Asian cultures including the arts, aesthetics and social structure and decided the style of costumes.

"Urban traditional housing" means a type of urban housing which retains characteristics of traditional Korean houses for ordinary people. It is a form of housing created in the process in which traditional Korean ways of life are applied to swift modernization. In Korea's traditional housing, the "court" functioned as a living space that promoted family bonding. The space of the court still remains in the urban traditional housing. However, rapid popularization of the westernized housing form, i.e., apartments, resulted in standardization and westernization of our housing and living patterns, and as a result, the court in urban traditional housing came to lose its original meaning. The objects of this study are residents of urban traditional housing. By studying them, this research aims, firstly, to understand the meaning of the inner court, secondly to analyze correlation between the residents' consciousness of the inner court and their use of the space, and ultimately to find various possible forms of our future housing. For this research, twenty six houses in the Gahoe-dong area in which urban traditional houses are densely built up were investigated. According to the result of this research, the inner court in current urban traditional housing is a space existing inside a house but directly exposed to outer air at the same time. It is a private but shared space. It contributes to forming a pleasant atmosphere by facilitating ventilation and providing sunlight. In addition, it is a living space that actively reflects the Korean living style that values family life.

Purpose: Physicochemical and microbiological qualities were investigated to compare quality characteristics of traditional with commercial soy sauce (Ganjang). Methods: Nineteen traditional products were collected from six provinces and three commercial products were purchased in domestic markets. The proximate composition, inorganic substance contents, viable bacteria, and chromaticity of the soy sauces were measured. Results: Although concentrations of crude fat and protein were not significantly different between traditional and commercial Ganjang, the moisture concentration of commercial soy sauce was significantly higher than in traditional Ganjang (p<0.05). However, the amount of ash in commercial soy sauce was significantly lower than in traditional Ganjang (p<0.05). Total nitrogen concentrations of traditional and commercial Ganjang were 0.50-1.59% and 0.86-1.26%, respectively. Concentrations of Na, Mg, K, Ca, Li, B, Fe, and Sr in traditional Ganjang were significantly higher than in the commercial products (p<0.05). The number of total bacteria in traditional and commercial Ganjang were $3.3{\times}10^1-6.4{\times}10^7CFU/mL$ and $5.5{\times}10^1-2.0{\times}10^3CFU/mL$, respectively. Bacillus cereus were below 10,000 CFU/mL in all samples, and Staphylococcus aureus was not detected. Fungi was not detected in 13 samples of traditional Ganjang and the three samples of commercial soy sauce. Although lightness, redness, and yellowness were not significantly different among the Ganjang, G10 was had the highest values (p<0.05). Conclusion: This research provided information about the quality characteristics of traditional and commercial Ganjang.
