'Pattern' is of very unique nature in each and every country around the world, and its aesthetic feeling of 'pattern' has been handed down according to its nationality and cultural development process. That is, 'pattern' is ornament to symbolize each country's aesthetic standard or choice through some shape, reflecting social consciousness or religion philosophy. Mostly based upon literature survey and case study, this survey paper analytically compares oriental botanical pattern with occidental botanical figure, which has been influenced by Buddhism-Confucianism and Christian religion respectively. The results show that some patterns are commonly used in both area, while meaning differently in some cases: lotus (life), pomegranate (wealth and prosperity in orient, resurrection in occident), grape (fecundity in orient, wealth in occident), dangcho (fecundity in orient, victory in occident). And the other patterns look uniquely used either just in orient or only in occident. For instance, oriental area had its own patterns such as peony (meaning wealth and honour), peach (longevity), ume flower (happiness), orchid (fecundity); while occidental area used lily (purity), olive (peace), palm (victory), and so on. Interestingly, the botanical patterns were used as main patterns in orient whereas as minor in occident.

Let K be a nonempty convex subset of an arbitrary Banach space X and $T\;:\;K\;{\rightarrow}\;K$ be a uniformly continuous strictly hemi-contractive operator with bounded range. We prove that certain Ishikawa iteration scheme with errors both converges strongly to a unique fixed point of T and is almost T-stable on K. We also establish similar convergence and almost stability results for strictly hemi-contractive operator $T\;:\;K\;{\rightarrow}\;K$, where K is a nonempty convex subset of arbitrary uniformly smooth Banach space X. The convergence results presented in this paper extend, improve and unify the corresponding results in Chang [1], Chang, Cho, Lee & Kang [2], Chidume [3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8], Chidume & Osilike [9, 10, 11, 12], Liu [19], Schu [25], Tan & Xu [26], Xu [28], Zhou [29], Zhou & Jia [30] and others.

In this article, effect of the dyeing and mechanical properties were investigated on the polyester ultramicro fiber(UMF) and knitted fabric varying fiber fineness(0.01d and 0.05d). By a treatment with NaOH solution, sea-ingredient was removed and polyester micro-fiber was revealed. The dyeing, build-up and fastness properties of the fiber and fabrics were observed. We used C.I. Disperse Red 60 and Blue 56 for dyeing property and eight Lumacron dyes for build-up property and colorfastness. At low temperature dyeing($100^{\circ}C$), the dyeing rate of 0.01d-polyester UME increased more than that of 0.05d-polyester UMF with Disperse Red 60 and Blue 56 whereas dyeing rate of 0.05d-polyester UMF were increased more than that of 0.01d-polyester UMF at high temperature($120^{\circ}C$), The colorfastnesses of the 0.05d-fiber knitted fabric such as washing, rubbing and light was higher than those of the 0.01d-fiber knitted fabric.

Das hauh lterische Handeln wird je nach der Kultur einer gesellschaft unterschiedlich gestaltet. Auf welche Ebenen treten nun die unterschiedlichen Formen des haush lterischen Handelns in den jeweiligen Kultur auf und wodurch werden sie bestimmt\ulcorner Um diese Frage beantworten zu k nnen, m ssen wir durch die kulturanthropologische Denkans tze fragen, wie und inwiefern eine bestimmte Kultur die menschliche existenz beinflusst und wodurch spezifische kulturelle Wertorientierungen entstehen. Man erh lt damit die M glichekeit, die Realit t des haush lterischen Handelns-sowohl im Blick auf das kulturell Besondere als auch auf das Allgemeine-differenzierter verstehen zu k nnen. die kultur beeinflusst das haush lterische Handeln und Institutionalisierung des Haushalts in Sozialsytemen und Internalisierung der kulturellen werte durch die haush lterisch handelnden Personen, sowie die Begrenzung der Handlungs-und Entscheidungsspielr ume durch Rahmenbedingungen. Die Kultur leitet die handelnden Personen auch hinsichtlich der Zielorientierung und der normativen regulierung der Mittel, um dieses Ziel zu erreichen. So wird die Art und Weise der Handlungen, welche eine Folge der Lebenshaltung sind, von der kultur gelenkt und sind in ihrer realen Durchf hrung von kultur zu Kultur verschieden. In jeder Kultur basiert daher das haush lterische Handeln auf bestimmten dominierenden Bed rfnisstrukturen, in einem eigenen Rezept zur Uberwindung der leiblichenund seelischen lebensnot. einem eigenen MaBstab der Bed rfnisbefriedigung in einem begrenzten Spielraum. dadurch werden Umfang und Inhalt der hauswirtschaftlichen Arbeits-und funktionsbereiche, die Art ujd Weise der Strukturierung der Einkommemsbeschaffung und-verwendung und die Aufgaben und verantwortungsbereiche des Haushaltes in den jeweiligen Kulturen unterscfo-hiedlich formiert.

The focus of the present study is to investigate both local and global behaviour of a precast concrete sandwich panel. The selected prototype consists of two reinforced concrete layers coupled by a system of cold-drawn steel profiles and one intermediate layer of insulating material. High-definition nonlinear finite element (FE) models, based on 3D brick and 2D interface elements, are used to assess the capacity of this technology under shear, tension and compression. Geometrical nonlinearities are accounted via large displacement-large strain formulation, whilst material nonlinearities are included, in the series of simulations, by means of Von Mises yielding criterion for steel elements and a classical total strain crack model for concrete; a bond-slip constitutive law is additionally adopted to reproduce steel profile-concrete layer interaction. First, constitutive models are calibrated on the basis of preliminary pull and pull-out tests for steel and concrete, respectively. Geometrically and materially nonlinear FE simulations are performed, in compliance with experimental tests, to validate the proposed modeling approach and characterize shear, compressive and tensile response of this system, in terms of global capacity curves and local stress/strain distributions. Based on these experimental and numerical data, the structural performance is then quantified under various loading conditions, aimed to reproduce the behaviour of this solution during production, transport, construction and service conditions.

Eccentrically braced frames (EBFs) represent an attractive lateral load resisting steel system to be used in areas of high seismicity. In order to assess the likely damage for a given intensity of ground shaking, fragility functions can be used to identify the probability of exceeding a certain damage limit-state, given a certain response of a structure. This paper focuses on developing a set of fragility functions for EBF structures, considering that damage can be directly linked to the interstorey drift demand at each storey. This is done by performing a Monte Carlo Simulation of an analytical expression for the drift capacity of an EBF, where each term of the expression relies on either experimental testing results or mechanics-based reasoning. The analysis provides a set of fragility functions that can be used for three damage limit-states: concrete slab repair, damage requiring heat straightening of the link and damage requiring link replacement. Depending on the level of detail known about the EBF structure, in terms of its link section size, link length and storey number within a structure, the resulting fragility function can be refined and its associated dispersion reduced. This is done by using an analytical expression to estimate the median value of interstorey drift, which can be used in conjunction with an informed assumption of dispersion, or alternatively by using a MATLAB based tool that calculates the median and dispersion for each damage limit-state for a given set of user specified inputs about the EBF. However, a set of general fragility functions is also provided to enable quick assessment of the seismic performance of EBF structures at a regional scale.

This study developed a practical knitwear design with applying the pattern of Queen Yeong's pearl pouch. The ume flower pattern of pearl pouch was simplified to be one repeat pattern, and four simulated knit pattern samples of G-A, G-B, R-A, and R-Bwere made with cable, cross, and two background colors of gray and red using Texpro V.11.0. The items of design application were selected after an interview with a panel of university students in their twenties and knit samples were produced by hand knitting. The small sized G-A for the partial ornament of hat, sweater, skirt, kitchenware case and accessories; the long sized G-B for the tuck of sleeves, hem of skirt and one-piece dress, partial ornament of sweater, scarf, and curtain decoration: the small sized R-A was preferred for point ornament of pouch, boots, hat, partial ornament of children's fashion products and accessories: the long sized R-B for table runner, leg warmer, tuck of sleeves, skirt hem, necktie, and scarf. The knit samples were formulated with partial ornaments attached on dress and props or connected each other. Colors of pastel and navy were also presented to meet the demands of panels. The study placed a limit on the slight difference between the simulation samples and knit samples due to the characteristics of threads and hand tension. The color variation for multiple coordination and activation to reduce the piece rate for young customers remains to be discussed in the near future.

This study was to investigate the factors affecting drinking Korean traditional beverages and the drinking habits of college students in Seoul. The research was carried out by asking them to drink 10 kinds of traditional drinks. They were composed of 45.5% of boys and 54.5% of girls who were $18\sim21$ years old, studying food related science (63.9%), and mostly (86.6%) living in a nuclear family in collective residents (60.4%) like an apartment. The number of students whose family's monthly incomes were over 3 million won was the largest as 37.1%. Their mothers were housewives (58.4%) mostly aged $46\sim50$ as 47.0%. In the research on the preference of students for the traditional drinks, most of them, 78.7%, showed their liking for the drinks because of their good taste (61.%). The number of students who answered they got the drinks by homemaking was the largest as 39.6%. Most of them, 66.3%, preferred fruit drinks, 19.8% soda drinks, 11.4% traditional drinks and 2.5% functional drinks. 31.2% of the drinks mostly taken at home was green tea, followed by sweet rice drink, Shik-hae. Among the drinks coming into the market, sweet rice drink was preferred in general as 25.7%, and the next was green tea 16.8%, ume drink (Maesil tea) 14.9%, rice tea 13.9%, fruit punch (Sujeonggwa) 11.4%, black tea 7.9%, honey tea 4.5%, ginseng tea 2.5% and jujube tea 2.5%. In the research on 'whether the students had experience preparing the traditional drinks or not', many of them, 62.4%, answered "No". And in the questionnaire asking on 'whether they liked to receive a training on making traditional drinks or not', 87.6% of them showed their wish to get the training. In the question on the reason why the students did not like to take the training on traditional drinks, the number of students who answered that it was complicated and hard to prepare was the largest as 53.0%.

Objective: The objective of this study was to evaluate the effects of four different cooking techniques viz: boiling, grilling, microwave, and frying; on the physicochemical characteristics of camel meat. Methods: Protein composition and their degradation as well as biochemical and textural changes of camel meat as influenced by cooking methods were investigated. Results: The highest cooking loss (52.61%) was reported in microwaved samples while grilled samples showed the lowest cooking loss (44.98%). The microwaved samples showed the highest levels of lipid oxidation as measured by thiobarbituric acid reactive substances, while boiled samples showed the lowest levels (4.5 mg/kg). Protein solubility, total collagen, and soluble collagen content were highest in boiled samples. Boiled camel meat had lower hardness values compared to the other treated samples. Consequently, boiling was the more suitable cooking technique for producing camel meat with a reduced hardness value and lower lipid oxidation level. Conclusion: The camel meat industry and camel meat consumer can benefit from this research by improving their commercial viability and making consumers aware about the effects of cooking procedures on the quality of camel meat. The results of this study will be of significance to researchers and readers who are working on the processing and quality of camel meat.

Bottom-up approaches to control of Microcystis aeruginosa blooms were comparatively investigated through an in situ mesocosm experiment using aquatic plants (Iris pseudoacorus). In the mesocosm experiments, floating I. pseudoacorus, seemed to be effective in controlling massive M. aeruginosa blooms in an agricultural reservoir, exhibiting a close coupling with temporal variations in Chl-a and DO concentration. Shading by floating I. pseudoacorus resulted in a reduced phytoplankton abundance inhibiting light energy availability. Moreover, I. pseudoacorus may suppress phytoplankton growth through the excretion of chemical substances, likes a allelopathy, that inhibit phytoplankton photosynthetic activity. The $^{15}N$ atom % of I. pseudoacorus showed higher values than POM, suggesting that I. pseudoacorus assimilates DIN predominantly compared to phytoplankton, which was mostly M. aeruginosa. This result strongly suggests that the M. aeruginosa bloom should be regulated by aquatic plants, like I. pseudoacorus, this approach can affect zooplankton composition. This is the first study that has used stable isotope tracers to evaluate the biomanipulation efficiency through floating I. pseudoacorus.
