청소년 시기는 급격한 변화를 겪는 시기이지만 동시에 잠재력과 역동성을 발휘할 수 있는 시기이다. 이 시기의 청소년 세대를 보다 능동적이고 상호의존적인 방식으로 신앙을 갖게 하고, 음악을 통해 복음을 표현하게 하며, 다른 친구들에게나 이어지는 세대에게 복음을 전하는 선교적 제자로 세우는 것은 중요한 청소년 선교사역이다. 그래 서 본 연구의 목적은 청소년 세대를 다음 세대로 보는 것을 넘어서 ‘이음세대’로 세울 뿐 아니라, 수동적인 세대가 아닌 선교적 제자도를 갖춘 세대로 세울 수 있음을 논증하는 것이다. 그러므로 본 연구는 다음과 같은 선교적 의미를 얻게 되었다. 첫째, 청소년 세대를 이음세대 로 세움으로써 그들이 앞뒤 세대를 이어줄 수 있고, 교회로 세워지며, 하나님의 선교사역에 함께 참여하는 세대가 되게 하며 선교적 제자로 세울 수 있다. 둘째, 음악이라는 구술 커뮤니케이션 수단은 청소년세대와 복음으로 소통할 수 있는 좋은 선교적 도구이다. 특히 여러 음악 장르 중 힙합을 통해 복음의 메시지를 표현하는 가수 비와이의 사례를 살펴봄으로써 힙합이 청소년 세대에게 매력적일 뿐 아니라 스스로 자신의 신앙을 표현하고 다른 이들과도 소통할 수 있는 중요한 선교적 도구이다.

폐수 처리는 담수 공급의 수요를 맞추고 동시에 환경 오염을 제어하기 위한 가장 중요한 기술 중 하나이다. 여러 종류의 증류법과 역삼투 공정과 같은 다양한 기술은 더 높은 에너지 투입을 필요로 한다. 축전식 탈염(CDI) 기술은 전력 소 비가 매우 적어 슈퍼커패시터 원리에 기반한 대안으로 떠오르고 있다. 공정의 효율성을 향상시키기 위해 전극 재료를 개선하 기 위한 연구가 계속되고 있다. 역전기투석은 가장 일반적으로 사용되는 담수화 기술 및 삼투압 발전기이다. 역전기투석의 효 율을 향상시키기 위해 수행된 많은 연구 중, 맥신(MXene)은 이온교환막 및 2차원 나노유체 채널로서 역전기투석의 물리적 및 전기화학적 특성을 향상시킬 수 있는 유망한 방법으로 떠오르고 있다. 맥신은 단독 사용뿐만 아니라 다른 물질들이 맥신 과 혼합되어 복합막의 성능을 더욱 향상시킨다. 전처리를 거치거나 Ti3C2Tx, 나피온 등을 포함한 이종구조를 가진 맥신은 각 각 최대 담수화 성능 측정 결과를 통해 담수화 산업에서 유망한 재료로 맥신의 잠재력을 입증했다. 역전기투석을 통한 삼투 압 발전 산업에서 이온교환막에서 비대칭 나노유체 이온 채널에 맥신을 사용함으로써 최대 삼투압 출력 밀도를 크게 향상시 켰으며, 대부분 상용화 기준값인 5 Wm-2를 넘었다. 일정 개수의 단위체를 연결함으로써 매개체의 도움 없이 전자기기에 직접 적으로 전력을 공급할 수 있는 수준의 전압이 출력됐다. 본 리뷰에서는 맥신 복합막을 기반으로 한 전기투석 공정의 최근 연 구들에 대해 설명한다.

본 총설은 탄소중립 및 에너지순환을 실현하기 위한 재생에너지로부터 그린수소 생산 전략 중 하나인 바이오수소 생산 및 정제법에 관해 소개하고자 한다. 바이오수소는 생물질과 미생물과 같은 재생에너지원을 이용하며, 상온 및 상압 등의 마일드한 실험조건에서 작동하여 에너지소비 및 공정비용이 적게 드는 친환경 공정으로 알려져 있다. 하지만, 이러한 바이오 수소를 상업적으로 이용하기 위해서는 해결해야 할 중요한 도전적인 과제가 존재한다. 특히, 바이오수소는 생물반응기내의 복합한 화학반응으로 합성되어, 낮은 수소생산 속도 및 반응기내 다양한 혼합물이 존재하여, 바이오수소 고순도화를 위해서 연속공정 형태의 분리 및 정제 기술이 반드시 필요하다. 이를 위해, 저온 증류법, 압력 흡착법, 분리막법 등을 비롯한 다양한 분리 및 정제 기술이 고순도 바이오수소를 얻기 위해 제안되었다. 본 총설에서는 바이오수소 생산 및 정제 연계화를 위한 비 다공성 고분자 분리막의 가능성에 대해 소개하고자 한다.

Due to the development of the internet and communications technology, the media market has undergone significant changes in the 2000s. In the past, when the types of media were not diverse, media content was mainly consumed through TV, radio, newspapers, etc., but as varied, it allowed users to watch the content anytime and anywhere. ‘Snack Video’ which is produced in a short length and consumed in commuting time and leisure time, and ‘Snack Culture’ which is a popular lifestyle trend of consuming short-form cultural content, is now widespread. The representative content of snack content is video clips. Various of media provide video clips, such as portal sites, SNS, and TV programs. YouTube is effective in increasing purchases than the other channels. Over-The-Top (OTT) is another pillar of the new media market, which has emerged with the development of the internet and communications technologies.

Metaverse is a virtual world where users can engage in various activities, and its market is expected to grow rapidly in the coming years (Hwang, 2021). Generation Z, also known as digital natives, are heavily involved in social media and often share selfies, making them more sensitive to body image concerns (Ameen, 2022). In the metaverse, users can create customized avatars, allowing them to experience an ideal body image. This study applies the “extraordinary self” theory to avatar creation, a concept that explains how people create an ideal, fantastic, or transcendent self by consuming experiences that set them apart from their mundane real self (Procter, 2021). Based on the theory, this study examines how dissatisfaction with body image of Generation Z can lead to the creation of avatars that manifest an ideal body image, which in turn, can influence self-congruence with the avatar and self-esteem in the metaverse. This study also looks into the possible effects of enhanced self-esteem on user’s intention to purchase virtual products and their loyalty to a specific metaverse platform. Therefore, the following hypotheses are developed.

Over the past decade, the global apparel industry has witnessed an exponential growth of rental business. As consumers are increasingly aware of the environmental impact of over-consumption and garment waste, there is a new demand for apparel rental service as it helps reduce discarded garments to the landfill while satisfy consumers’ fashion needs This study examines the motivational factors that influence Generation Z consumers' attitudes and purchase intentions towards fashion rentals in China. Based on the theory of reasoned action, a survey was conducted with Generation Z consumers in mainland China. The findings suggested that economic benefits, ego defence, fashion orientation, experience value and sustainable value affect Chinese youngsters’ purchase intention to rent fashion-clothing. This empirical study contributes to a better understanding of the changing consumption attitudes and patterns of Generation Z consumers in China.

Gastro-tourism extends beyond what to eat, but also the attractiveness and the environment. It encompasses a tourist experience journey starting from pre, during, until post-travel. Gastro tourism in the new normal engages with traditional vs novel value of experiences. This study aims to answer how Gen Z experiences gastro tourism and the impact of digital technologies using surveys on Tiktok Ads followed by an experiment with an immersive culinary adventure using 3D visual technology.

In this research, we investigate the influence of Chinese consumers’ generation on the perception of “Made in China” luxury. This issue is of utmost importance for the Chinese government as Chinese consumers have now become the first luxury consumers in the world while China remains a non-legitimate dwarf in luxury manufacturing. To bridge this gap, we carried a quantitative survey involving 300 Chinese luxury consumers and tested the effect of consumers’ age on Chinese luxury products perceived luxury. Potential mediators are considered in our analyses, including consumers’ ethnocentrism and innovativeness, materialism, and cultural orientations (i.e., preference for individualism and tradition). The data are currently being collected. Our results will be discussed at the 2023 Global Marketing Conference in Seoul if this research is selected for presentation. They should help position current and future “Made in China” luxury brands and target Chinese luxury consumers.

Essential macleod program (EMP) was used to optimize the transmittance of the transparent conducting layers in an oxidemetal- oxide structure. For EMP simulation, the optical coefficient of the material was extracted using an ellipsometer. Following the simulation studies, oxide-metal-oxide samples were fabricated experimentally, and their optical and electrical properties were analyzed. Multilayer SiInZnO/Ag/Siinzno (S/A/S) structures were grown on glass substrates using radio frequency (RF) and direct current (DC) sputtering at room temperature. Due to the occurrence of destructive interference at the metal and oxide interface, the S/A/S structure exhibited excellent optical properties. As the thickness of the top and bottom oxide layers was increased, the transmittance spectrum was red-shifted due to partial wave interference at the Ag interface. Change in thickness of the top oxide layer had a greater effect on the transmittance than that of the bottom oxide layer. This was due to the difference in refractive index occurring at each interface. Change in Ag thickness shifted the absorption edge in the short wavelength region. Whereas electrical properties, such as sheet resistance and carrier concentration, were found to be dependent on thickness of the sandwiched metal layer. An excellent figure of merit of 63.20 ×10−3Ω−1 was obtained when the thickness of the Ag layer was 11 nm, and the top and bottom oxide layer thickness were 45 and 60 nm, respectively. These values suggest promising optoelectronic properties and are encouraging for future transparent electrode applications.

우리나라 열병합 발전소에서 운영되고 있는 최신 증기터빈의 출력과 효율 향상을 위한 첫 번째 기술적인 진보는 고온, 고압의 증기를 사용할 수 있는 소재 개발의 진척이라고 할 수 있다. 소재의 발전과 더불어 증기터빈의 내부효율 향상을 위한 설계적 노력의 결실 로 높은 효율의 증기터빈이 제작되었다. 오랜 기간 운전 중인 증기터빈의 내부효율은 기계적 수명의 한계로 점차 손실이 발생하고 효율 과 출력이 떨어지게 된다. 이러한 이유로 본 연구에서는 상용프로그램을 이용하여 열병합 발전소용 고압(HP)-중압(IP) 증기터빈의 증기유 로 성능해석을 수행할 수 있는 모델을 개발하고 성능계산 방법을 제시하고자 한다. 증기터빈의 복잡한 성능계산방식으로 인해 증기터빈 실무자들에게 실질적으로 유용한 참고문헌이 될 수 있도록 주요 변수들을 제시하였다. 또한 증기터빈 성능계산에 필요한 열정산도 분석 과 증기터빈 성능계산 결과의 적합성을 성능시험 결과와 비교 확인하였다.

Numerous studies have attempted to predict the energy output of solar-powered vehicles based on different parameters such as road conditions, driver characteristics, and weather. However, since these studies were conducted on stationary vehicles, they are limited in their accuracy when applied to driving vehicles. This study aimed to improve the accuracy of electric power prediction for a solar-powered bus by applying a technique that improves energy efficiency without affecting driving performance. A comparative analysis of power generation and solar irradiance data was conducted for the bus driven on different roads to forecast its power generation, and a high-accuracy power generation prediction equation was derived. A comparison with actual test results revealed that a power generation forecast accuracy of at least 90% was achieved, validating the equation used for forecasting. With this power generation prediction process, it is possible to forecast the amount of energy generated in advance when a solar bus is operated in a specific area.

This study examined the MZ Generation Consumers’ perception and needs of HMR (Home Meal Replacement) using local food. The paper provides basic data for deriving a plan to promote local food consumption and reports the implications for various development and distribution strategies regarding HMR using local food. In this study, a quantitative survey was conducted targeting 600 consumers to examine the general consumption status of HMR using local food by MZ consumers. In addition, a qualitative survey was conducted targeting 21 people to derive the specific perceptions and unmet needs of MZ consumers. These results showed that MZ consumers require healthy and fresh HMR but have low awareness of HMR using local food. Therefore, it is necessary to deliver sufficient information and promote it. In particular, MZ consumers have high expectations for ‘healthy and safe’ food when purchasing HMR using local food, which plays an important role in purchasing decisions. They also valued ‘convenience’, which means ‘simple cooking’, ‘subdivision packaging’, and ‘accessibility of purchasing channels’, as important when purchasing HMR using local food. Lastly, MZ consumers positively evaluated the values of ‘healthy eating’ and ‘revitalization of the local economy’ through local food.

This study is to propose ways to improve the system for rational procedures for offshore wind power generation projects. The results of this study are summarized as follows. In order to quickly distribute and develop offshore wind power projects, the permitting period should be shortened through special laws, the government actively intervenes to support the formation and operation of privat-public councils to ensure residents' acceptance. In this way, it can be competitive in the future energy market. Above all, a special law (proposal) related to offshore wind power currently pending in the National Assembly should be passed as soon as possible. Finally, the government and local governments that manage public waters should provide active administrative support based on system improvement measures in consideration of these permits, and the project’s main body should minimize damage to the marine environment and ecosystem. Through these subject-specific roles, offshore wind power generation will be able to reduce carbon emissions and help establish a sustainable energy production system.

In this study, superior carbon nanotubes (CNT) were chemically modified with itaconic acid (IA) and a polyaniline (PANI) composite was formed and used to remove methylene blue (MB) dye from an aqueous solution. The capacity of CNTs modified with IA (IA/CNT) and composited with PANI (PANI/CNT) to remove MB dye from an aqueous solution was compared and investigated. The effects of parameters such as pH (3–10), adsorbent dose (0.8–8 g/L), initial dye concentration (10–100 mg/L), and temperature (25–55 °C) on MB adsorption were investigated. IA/CNT and PANI/CNT adsorbents were characterized by analyzes such as Fourier Transform Infrared Spectroscopy (FT-IR), Field Emission Scanning Electron Microscopy (FE-SEM), transmission electron microscope (TEM), and Brunauer, Emmett and Teller (BET). It was determined that the isotherm data fit the Langmuir isotherm model. The maximum adsorption capacity (qmax) of PANI/CNT and IA/CNT calculated according to this model (at 25 °C) was 12.78 and 32.78 mg g− 1, respectively. Thermodynamic analysis results showed that the adsorption was exothermic, feasible, and spontaneous. It can be said that the possible mechanism of MB on PANI/CNT and IA/CNT adsorbents occurs with the participation of π–π interaction, electrostatic attraction and hydrogen bonding.

The development of Features, Events, and Processes (FEPs) and scenarios, which consider the longterm evolution of repository, is underway, along with the construction of input data and a model database for the adaptive process-based total system performance assessment framework, APro. PAPiRUS serves as an integrated information processing platform, enabling users to seamlessly access, search, and extract essential information. To enhance data usability, it is crucial to establish well-structured metadata for each dataset. Regarding FEPs, individual FEPs consist of extensive text-based data and sets of other short textual data. To enhance the searchability of these FEPs, precise keywords must be assigned to each FEP. For user convenience, the PAPiRUS FEP database contains several FEPs not only the long-term evolution FEPs developed by KAERI but also thousands of FEPs form the databases such as NEA PFEPs and Posiva FEPs. Generating keywords for thousands of FEPs proves to be a labor-intensive task. Consequently, this study explores natural language processing techniques for keyword analysis to boost the productivity of the keyword generation process. Specifically, we employ Generative Pretrained Transformer (GPT) models for keyword extraction. Our test results for keyword extraction demonstrate that, although not flawless, providing suitable prompts yields sufficiently useful keyword sets. We identified several optimal prompts and developed an Excel-based program to derive keywords from the existing FEP database using these prompts. By using the outcomes of this study, initial versions of keyword sets for thousands of FEPs can be rapidly produced and subsequently refined through expert review and editing. The generated keywords will serve as metadata within PAPiRUS.

The predator-prey interaction in freshwater ecosystems is a crucial area in the ecological study field and one of example to find such interaction is to investigate stomach contents. However, traditional method through visual inspection often induce misidentification, as it depends critically on intactness of physically visible data. In this study, we utilized Next-Generations Sequencing (NGS) technology to test the applicability stomach content analysis and overcome such limitation. NGS was applied to analyze the stomach contents of the Hemibarbus labeo, Tachysurus fulvidraco, and Plecoglossus altivelis collected in the lower part of Nakdong River. As a result, T. fulvidraco had a higher number of Animalia operational taxonomic units (OTUs) intake rate than H. labeo. At the same time, P. altivelis had higher number of Plantae OTUs intake rate than T. fulvidraco and higher Protozoa OTUs intake rate than H. labeo respectively. Therefore, NGS technology application enable to overcome traditional method’s limitation and discover hidden interspecific interaction which can further be used in appropriate habitat assessment.
