The purpose of this study is to analyze the effects of English learning through social media on the perception and affective factors of college students. To this end, researchers examined whether the educational use of YouTube and KakaoTalk, popular among college students in Korea, differs according to English improvement, affective factors, and English level. The subjects of this study were 63 freshmen majoring in Medical Convergence, who were taking college English at C University located in Gangwon-do. An online questionnaire was used for data collection. The collected data were analyzed using Jamovi, a statistical program. The results are as follows. First, the participants positively changed the perception that the use of social media had on the overall improvement of English. Second, the affective domains such as self-confidence, attitudes, values, beliefs, and interests of the participants also changed positively. Finally, it was confirmed that social media has educational value regardless of English level.
Recently, due to the aging of workers and the weakening of the labor base in the automobile industry, research on quality inspection methods through ICT(Information and Communication Technology) convergence is being actively conducted. A lot of research has already been done on the development of an automated system for quality inspection in the manufacturing process using image processing. However, there is a limit to detecting defects occurring in the automotive sunroof sealer application process, which is the subject of this study, only by image processing using a general camera. To solve this problem, this paper proposes a system construction method that collects image information using a infrared thermal imaging camera for the sunroof sealer application process and detects possible product defects based on the SVM(Support Vector Machine) algorithm. The proposed system construction method was actually tested and applied to auto parts makers equipped with the sunroof sealer application process, and as a result, the superiority, reliability, and field applicability of the proposed method were proven.
There is an increasing need for complex and large projects to be carried out quickly. As the duration, size, and cost of the project increase, concerns about project failure are also rising. Finding factors that hinder the performance of an effective project and eliminating them in advance or controlling and managing them more effectively can be a more direct way to secure the success of the project. Previous studies have identified compositional dimensions that are classified according to attributes, covering the various obstacles that affect the success of the project through existing literature. It is a follow-up to previous research. Using DEMATEL techniques, we would like to propose to explore the appropriate measures that an entity and organization can take by identifying the causality between factors through cross-impact analysis of project disabilities and even presenting factors that may arise when they are identified. As a result of the analysis, according to the indicators to evaluate the importance, 8 factors were found to be relatively important factors, excluding the factors that Failure of project feasibility analysis and Technical environment change. In addition, 5 factors were found to be causative factors; Technical environment change, Unclarity project plan, Strategic consistency error, Inaccuracy of requirement definition, and Failure of project feasibility analysis. In contrast, the remaining 5 factors were found to be the result factors; Lack of benefits realization, Negative attitude of top management, Stakeholder conflict, Difficulty of process management, and Disturbance of communication.
Non-face-to-face lectures have become a necessity rather than an option since COVID-19, and in order to improve the quality of university education, it is necessary to explore the properties of non-face-to-face lectures and make active efforts to improve them. This study, focusing on this, aims to provide basic data necessary for decision-making for non-face-to-face lecture design by analyzing the relative importance and execution satisfaction of non-face-to-face lecture attributes for professors and students. Based on previous research, a questionnaire was constructed by deriving 4 factors from 1st layer and 17 from 2nd layer attributes of non-face-to-face lectures. A total of 180 valid samples were used for analysis, including 60 professors and 120 students. The importance of the non-face-to-face lecture properties was calculated by obtaining the weights for each stratified element through AHP(Analytic Hierachy Process) analysis, and performance satisfaction was calculated through statistical analysis based on the Likert 5-point scale. As a result of the AHP analysis, both the professor group and the student group had the same priority for the first tier factors, but there was a difference in the priorities between the second tier factors, so it seems necessary to discuss this. As a result of the IPA(Importance Performance Analysis) analysis, the professor group selected the level of interaction as an area to focus on, and it was confirmed that research and investment in teaching methods for smooth interaction are necessary. The student group was able to confirm that it is urgent to improve and invest in the current situation so that the system can be operated stably by selecting the system stability. This study uses AHP analysis for professors and students groups to derive relative importance and priority, and calculates the IPA matrix using IPA analysis to establish the basis for decision-making on future face-to-face and non-face-to-face lecture design and revision. It is meaningful that it was presented.
As the advent of the Fourth Industrial Revolution and Information Age, companies are in the state of infinite competition due to the rapidly changing technological environment and fierce competition. In this situation companies are making efforts to gain the competitive advantage by introducing information systems. Supply Chain Management (SCM) is considered a method to gain a competitive edge in rapid change. In fact, companies that already have introduced the SCM system are achieving company renovation with positive effects such as increase of sales stock reduction on-time delivery cost reduction and improved efficiency. This study was started to investigate the resistance that occurs in introducing the SCM system for small and medium-sized manufacturing industries that have not yet introduced the SCM system despite the importance of the SCM system, and to check the effect on the intention of the introduction. As the result of this study, the first is that the company has the higher technological innovation, the more positive the effect on Relative advantage Compatibility Perceived risk, Complexity. Second, The compatibility of the SCM system was rejected in innovation resistance, but it is adopted with the highest impact in the introduction intention. In addition, the mediating effect of innovation resistance was also rejected, confirming that if the SCM system is compatible for the company, it doesn’t affect the resistance and is the biggest factor to consider in the introduction of the SCM system. Third, the perceived risk of the SCM system doesn’t directly affect the intention to introduce, but has an indirect effect when mediation innovation resistance.
This paper considers a joint problem for blood inventory planning at hospitals and blood delivery planning from blood centers to hospitals, in order to alleviate the blood service imbalance between big and small hospitals being occurred in practice. The joint problem is to determine delivery timing, delivery quantity, delivery means such as medical drones and legacy blood vehicles, and inventory level to minimize inventory and delivery costs while satisfying hospitals’ blood demand over a planning horizon. This problem is formulated as a mixed integer programming model by considering practical constraints such as blood lifespan and drone specification. To solve the problem, this paper employs a Lagrangian relaxation technique and suggests a time efficient Lagrangian heuristic algorithm. The performance of the suggested heuristic is evaluated by conducting computational experiments on randomly-generated problem instances, which are generated by mimicking the real data of Korean Red Cross in Seoul and other reliable sources. The results of computational experiments show that the suggested heuristic obtains near-optimal solutions in a shorter amount of time. In addition, we discuss the effect of changes in the length of blood lifespan, the number of planning periods, the number of hospitals, and drone specifications on the performance of the suggested Lagrangian heuristic.
Manned-unmanned teaming can be a very promising air-to-air combat tactic since it can maximize the advantage of combining human insight with the robustness of the machine. The rapid advances in artificial intelligence and autonomous control technology will speed up the development of manned-unmanned teaming air-to-air combat system. In this paper, we introduce a manned-unmanned teaming air-to-air combat tactic which is composed of a manned aircraft and an UAV. In this tactic, a manned aircraft equipped with radar is functioning both as a sensor to detect the hostile aircraft and as a controller to direct the UAV to engage the hostile aircraft. The UAV equipped with missiles is functioning as an actor to engage the hostile aircraft. We also developed a combat scenario of executing this tactic where the manned-unmanned teaming is engaging a hostile aircraft. The hostile aircraft is equipped with both missiles and radar. To demonstrate the efficiency of the tactic, we run the simulation of the scenario of the tactic. Using the simulation, we found the optimal formation and maneuver for the manned-unmanned teaming where the manned-unmanned teaming can survive while the hostile aircraft is shot-downed. The result of this study can provide an insight to how manned aircraft can collaborate with UAV to carry out air-to-air combat missions.

본 연구는 스마트 기기 사용 능력과 소셜 미디어 서비스의 사용 수준이 노인의 자존감에 어떠한 영향을 미치는지 평가하고자 하였다. 코로나19(Covid-19) 대유행이 계속되고 있는 상황임을 고려할 때 스마트 기기를 사용한 사회적 상호작용은 그 어느 때보다 노인의 심리적 복지와 밀접한 관련이 있을 것으로 유추된다. 이에 본 연구는 한국정보사회발전연구원(KISDI)이 2018년과 2020년에 수집한 한국 미디어 패널 조사를 활용하여 노인의 스마트 기기 활용 능력과 자존감 사이의 관계를 살펴보았다. 연구 결과에 따르면, 스마트 기기를 사용할 수 있는 노인이 더 많은 인터넷 미디어 서비스를 이용하는 경향이 있었고, 자아존중감의 수준 역시 높은 것으로 나타났다. 특히 2018년과 2020년 사이 스마트 기기 활용 능력이 향상된 것으로 보고한 응답자들의 경우, 자존감 수준이 정체되거나 감소한 응답자들에 비하여 자존감의 수준이 유의미하게 높은 것으로 나타났다. 또한, 연구 결과는 독거노인의 경우 소셜 미디어에 대한 접근성이 낮고, 심리적인 건강 측면에서도 취약하다는 것을 보여주었다. 이러한 연구 결과는 스마트 기기 사용 능력을 향상시키고 소셜 미디어 활용을 도울 수 있는 노인 대상 사회서비스 제공이 필요함을 시사한다. 즉 사회적 관계 면에서 스마트 기기 활용과 소셜 미디어 사용이 취약한 노인의 심리적 복지를 향상시킬 수 있는 좋은 대안이 될 수 있음을 시사한다.
This research examines deep learning based image recognition models for beef sirloin classification. The sirloin of beef can be classified as the upper sirloin, the lower sirloin, and the ribeye, whereas during the distribution process they are often simply unified into the sirloin region. In this work, for detailed classification of beef sirloin regions we develop a model that can learn image information in a reasonable computation time using the MobileNet algorithm. In addition, to increase the accuracy of the model we introduce data augmentation methods as well, which amplifies the image data collected during the distribution process. This data augmentation enables to consider a larger size of training data set by which the accuracy of the model can be significantly improved. The data generated during the data proliferation process was tested using the MobileNet algorithm, where the test data set was obtained from the distribution processes in the real-world practice. Through the computational experiences we confirm that the accuracy of the suggested model is up to 83%. We expect that the classification model of this study can contribute to providing a more accurate and detailed information exchange between suppliers and consumers during the distribution process of beef sirloin.
IMO에서는 선박으로부터 온실가스 감축을 위해 선박의 에너지효율 증진에 관한 논의를 진행하고 있다. 현재, 선박으로부터 발생되는 폐열을 이용한 ORC 발전 시스템을 적용함으로써 선박으로부터 높은 에너지 변환 효율을 기대할 수 있다. 이 기술은 물보다 더 낮은 온도 범위에서 증발하는 프레온 또는 탄화수소 계통의 유기 매체를 작동 유체로 사용한다. 이를 통해 상대적으로 낮은 저온에서 증기 (기체)를 생성 및 동력을 발생시킬 수 있다. 본 연구에서는 유기 랭킨 사이클인 ORC 발전 시스템에서 냉매와 폐열 사이 열·유동해석 (Analysis of Heat flow)을 3D 시뮬레이션 기법을 이용하여 구조물의 내·외부에 흐르는 유체가 온도 변화, 속도 변화, 압력 변화 및 질량 변화를 통해서 구조물에 어떤 영향을 미치는지를 분석하고자 하며, 동 연구는 이 기법을 이용하여 ORC 발전 시스템에서 냉매와 선박 주기 관의 배기가스로부터 일어나는 열교환기의 열전달을 해석하였다.

In this paper, the system configuration of the heat pump system was summarized, and the results of operations for demonstration of a heating performance carried out during the winter season in 2018 were investigated. Therefore, if the heating control by supplying thermal effluent to the facility greenhouse, it can contribute to reducing the energy cost and improving quality.
해운 시황을 예측하는 것은 중요한 문제이다. 투자 방식의 결정, 선대 편성 방법, 운임 등을 결정하기 위한 판단 근거가 되며 이는 기업의 이익과 생존에 큰 영향을 미치기 때문이다. 이를 위해 본 연구에서는 기계학습 모델인 장단기 메모리 및 간소화된 장단기 메모리 구조의 Gated Recurrent Units를 활용하여 컨테이너선의 해상운임 예측 모델을 제안한다. 운임 예측 대상은 중국 컨테이너 운임지수 (CCFI)이며, 2003년 3월부터 2020년 5월까지의 CCFI 데이터를 학습에 사용하였다. 각 모델에 따라 2020년 6월 이후의 CCFI를 예측한 후 실 제 CCFI와 비교, 분석하였다. 실험 모델은 하이퍼 파라메터의 설정에 따라 총 6개의 모델을 설계하였다. 또한 전통적인 분석 방법과의 성 능을 비교하기 위해 ARIMA 모델도 실험에 추가하였다. 최적 모델은 두 가지 방법에 따라 선정하였다. 첫 번째 방법으로 각 모델을 10회 반복 실험하여 얻은 RMSE의 평균값이 가장 작은 모델을 선정하는 것이다. 두 번째 방법으로는 모든 실험에서 가장 낮은 RMSE를 기록한 모델을 선정하는 것이다. 실험 결과 전통적 시계열 예측모델인 ARIMA 모델과 비교하여 딥러닝 모델의 정확도를 입증하였으며, 정확한 예측모델을 통해 운임 변동의 위험관리 능력을 제고시키는데 기여했다. 반면 코로나19와 같은 외부 효과에 따른 운임의 급격한 변화상황이 발생한 경우, 예측모델의 정확도가 감소하는 한계점을 나타냈다. 제안된 모델 중 GRU1 모델이 두 가지 평가 방법 모두에서 가장 낮은 RMSE(69.55, 49.35)를 기록하며 최적 모델로 선정되었다.
Deuterium is a crucial clean energy source required for nuclear fusion and is a future resource needed in various industries and scientific fields. However, it is not easy to enrich deuterium because the proportion of deuterium in the hydrogen mixture is scarce, at approximately 0.016%. Furthermore, the physical and chemical properties of the hydrogen mixture and deuterium are very similar. Therefore, the efficient separation of deuterium from hydrogen mixtures is often a significant challenge when using modern separation technologies. Recently, to effectively separate deuterium, studies utilizing the ‘Kinetic Quantum Sieving Effect (KQS)’ of porous materials are increasing. Therefore, in this review, two different strategies have been discussed for improving KQS efficiency for hydrogen isotope separation performance using nanoporous materials. One is the gating effect, which precisely controls the aperture locally by adjusting the temperature and pressure. The second is the breathing phenomenon, utilizing the volume change of the structure from closed system to open system. It has been reported that efficient hydrogen isotope separation is possible using these two methods, and each of these effects is described in detail in this review. In addition, a specific-isotope responsive system (e.g., 2nd breathing effect in MIL-53) has recently been discovered and is described here as well.
Diet is important for muscle health and offers a protective effects against the loss of skeletal muscle mass and physical functions with advancing age. We analyzed the relationship between diet, metabolic disease risk, and sarcopenia in Korean female adults using the 2009-2011 Korea National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey (KNHANES). A total of 2038 adult women aged 50-64 years were classified into four groups based on the diagnosis of menopause and sarcopenia. The groups were the non-menopause and non-sarcopenia group (NMNS, n=249), the non-menopause and sarcopenia group (NMS, n=14), the menopause and non-sarcopenia group (MNS, n=1,653), and the menopause and sarcopenia group (MS, n=122). The socio-demographics, anthropometrics, blood profile, and dietary data of the subjects were collected. Those who were in both the sarcopenia groups were more obese (p<0.001), had greater waist circumferences (p<0.001), higher body mass index (p<0.001), and higher obesity rates (p<0.001) after adjustment for covariants. Both the sarcopenia groups also had higher plasma levels of total cholesterol (p<0.001), HbA1c (p=0.001), and vitamin D (p=0.020) than both the non-sarcopenia groups. Both the sarcopenia groups demonstrated a decreased intake of calcium (p=0.05), potassium (p=0.008), and niacin (p=0.008) than both the non-sarcopenia ones. Among the four groups, the NMS group showed the highest levels of total cholesterol, obesity, and lowest intake of micronutrients such as calcium, niacin, and potassium. Thus, muscle mass maintenance through weight control and adequate nutrient intake appears to demonstrate a potential association with preventing sarcopenia in Korean middle-aged women.

본 연구는 정맥의 서식지 관리 및 보전을 위한 기초자료를 제공하고자 수행하였다. 18개의 중점조사지역에서 지형, 서식지 환경을 고려하여 각 지점별로 개발지, 계곡부, 임도 및 능선 3가지 서식지유형으로 총 54개의 고정조사구를 선정하였다. 조사는 2016년부터 2018년까지 겨울철을 제외한 계절별(5월,8월, 10월)로 수행하였다. 서식지 유형별로 관찰된 조류를 자기조직화지도(SOM)를 활용하여 분포 패턴을 분석한 결과, 총 4개의 그룹으로 분류되었다(MRPP, A=0.12, p <0.005). 자기조직화지도 그룹별 종수와 개체수, 종다양도 지수를 비교분석한 결과 종수와 개체수, 종다양도 지수 모두 Ⅲ번 그룹에 가장 높게 나타났다(Kruskal-Wallis, 종수: x2 = 13.436, P <0.005; 개체수: x2 = 8.229, P <0.05; 종다양도: x2 = 17.115, P <0.005). 또한 그룹별 지표종 분석과, 서식지 환경 특성을 파악하기 위해 토지피복도를 랜덤 포레스트 모델에 적용하여 분석한 결과, 4개 그룹간의 서식지환경이 구성하는 비율과 지표종에 차이를 보였다. 지표종 분석은 Ⅱ번 그룹을 제외한 3그룹에서 총 18종의 조류가 지표종으로 확인되었다. 본 연구에서 자기조직화지도 를 활용하여 4개 그룹으로 분류된 결과를 기초로 랜덤 포레스트 모델과 지표종 분석을 적용하였을 때 그룹별 지표종 구성과 그룹별 서식지 특성과 상호 연관성을 보였다. 또한 그룹별 우점하는 서식환경에 따라 관찰된 종의 분포패턴과 밀도가 뚜렷하게 구분이 되었다. 자기조직화지도와 지표종분석, 랜덤 포레스트 모델을 함께 적용한 분석은 서식지 환경에 따라 조류 서식 특징파악에 유용한 결과를 도출할 수 있을 것으로 판단된다.
In this study, data from the 7th (2016~2018) and 8th (2019) Korea National Health and Nutrition Examination Surveys were used, which included 5,325 subjects. Health behavior, dietary and nutrient intake status, physical measurement and biochemical characteristics, and risk factors for elderly related chronic diseases were classified and analyzed according to the changing composition of single households and other households in the current society. As a result, the ratio of current smokers and drinkers in young adult single households, walking less than 30 minutes per day, subjective health status was poor, breakfast rate less than three times per week, eating out frequency more than once a day, lipid intake ratio to total calories, saturation fatty acid intake were significantly higher. In addition, waist circumference, and diastolic blood pressure were significantly higher. However, dietary fiber intake level was significantly lower. The results for hypertension, which is the representative chronic disease that causes old age-related chronic diseases, were significantly higher in single households (ORs=1.400 (95% CI: 1.095, 1.791), p=0.007). Although young adults may not have showed particularly serious health problems yet, education is believed as important to recognize and prevent age-related disease risk factors.
