PURPOSES : In link matching using vehicular trajectory in a car navigation system, it is technically difficult to match the location of the subject vehicle with a link on an electronic map in the vehicle on a grade separation highway segment consisting of an elevated highway and atgrade highway, because of the overlap of geometric lines of the two highways. This study was initiated to propose a link matching algorithm using the characteristics of vehicular movement of the subject vehicle. METHODS : The selected test site is the highway segment between Jeong-reung IC and Gil-eum IC where the Inner Circulation Road and Jeong-reung-ro run together. To evaluate the proposed algorithm, this study collected the raw packet data of vehicles that drove on the test site. In a simulation environment, link matching was performed using an existing algorithm as well as the proposed algorithm. RESULTS: It was clearly found that the characteristics of vehicular movements are different on the two highways. CONCLUSIONS: The proposed algorithm outperformed the existing algorithm.

현재까지 발표된 연구에 따르면 순환골재에는 약 20~40 중량%의 잔류 모르타르가 존재하는 것으로 알 려져 있으며, 순환골재에 포함된 잔류 모르타르의 함량에 따라 콘크리트의 강도 및 탄성계수 등의 물리적 거동에도 영향을 미치게 된다. 이러한 잔류 모르타르가 포함된 순환골재를 사용하여 ASTM C-1260의 규 정에 따라 알칼리 실리카 반응성 평가를 진행하게 될 경우, 포함되어 있는 잔류 모르타르 함량이 많아짐 에 따라 원골재의 비율이 줄어들게 되어 올바른 실험 결과값을 얻을 수 없는 경우가 발생하게 된다. 이러 한 문제점으로 인하여 순환골재를 재활용하기에 앞서 원골재의 내구적 특성을 파악하는 것이 매우 중요할 것으로 판단된다. 따라서 본 연구에서는 순환골재에 포함된 잔류 모르타르가 골재의 알칼리 실리카 팽창에 미치는 영향 을 평가하기 위해 동일한 모암을 가지며 잔류 모르타르 함량이 다른 순환골재 2종을 1M 농도의 염산 용 액으로 잔류 모르타르를 제거하여 염산처리 전 ․ 후 골재의 화학적 구성성분을 분석하고(그림 1), ASTM C-1260 규정에 따라 알칼리 실리카 반응성을 평가 및 분석하였다. 실험결과 흡수율이 6%를 초과하는 재 생골재 RA1의 경우 ASR 팽창거동은 원골재 대비 44%까지 감소하였으며, 흡수율 3% 미만인 순환골재 RA2의 경우 78%까지 감소하였다(그림 2). 따라서 본 연구에 사용된 골재의 경우, 원골재에 부착된 잔류 모르타르 함량의 대소에 따라 ASR시편의 팽창성은 실제 골재의 팽창성에 비해 50%이하로 감소되어 거동 할 수 있는 것으로 조사되었다.

The rheological properties of complex materials such as colloid dispersion show complicated non-Newtonian flow phenomena when they are subjected to shear flow. These flow properties are controlled by the characteristics of flow units and the interactions among the flow segments. The rheological parameters of relaxation time (β2)0, structure factor C2 and shear modulus X2/α2 for various thixotropic flow curves was obtained by applying thixotropic equation to flow curves. The variations of rheological parameters are directly related to non-Newtonian flows, viscosities and activation energies of flow segments.

The objective of this study is to investigate the effect of ELF (Extremely Low Frequency) exposure on the health of elementary school students. A total of 103 students 12~13 years old were chosen for the study. The experimental group consisted of 56 students who went to school near an overhead powerline. The ELF exposure and environmental hazard factors were evaluated during a 24-hour exposure period. The body and dwelling characteristics of the students as well as disease occurrence related to the respiratory system and allergies were investigated through a questionnaire. The brain wave and electrocardiogram were also inspected. The exposure of the group exposed while at a school located near a powerline was 6.8 mG (p<0.01). Based on the questionnaire results, neither the body or dwelling characteristics of the two groups were affected by the ELF emitted from powerline. There was no significant difference between the two groups in relation to the rate of occurrence of respiratory diseases such as wheezing, asthma and bronchitis. Although brain waves of the group exposed to ELF were lower than that of the group not exposed to it in terms of absolute power of gamma and beta, there is no significant difference between the health status of the two groups. According to our study, school students who lived near a power line were exposed to higher ELF levels than those away from a power line. The two groups have significant differences inBrain wave and ECG, but this change doesn't mean there is a difference in health status. Finally, our study has a limitation in terms of the number of study subjects and the restricted area examined.

vThis study analyzed the coat color-related genes of MC1R, ASIP, ECA3-inversion, and STX17 of 1,462 Jeju horses administered by the Jeju Special Self-Governing Province. This was done to investigate the distributional characteristics of coat color-related genes in the Jeju horse group and the changes of its coat color-related genes by generation. The genotype frequency of the MC1R gene of E+/E+ and E+/Ee related to black coat color was 0.122 and 0.447, respectively, while Ee/Ee of the chestnut genotype was 0.429. The genotype frequency of the ASIP gene of AA/AA, AA/Aa, and Aa/Aa was 0.46, 0.448, and 0.091, respectively, where the genotype frequency of Aa/Aa turned out to be relatively low. The To/To and +/To genotype that manifests the Tobiano shape was 0.001 and 0.119, respectively, with the share of Tobiano shape around 12%. The genotype frequency of G/G and G/g of STX17 related to grey coat color was 0.002 and 0.680, respectively, with the share of grey horses among the Jeju horse group at 68.2%. As for the change of coat color genes by generation, no large changes were observed in the MC1R and ASIP genes. In ECA3-inversion, the To allele that manifests Tobiano significantly decreased following the generational change (p<0.05), while the STX17 G allele related to grey coat color significantly increased following the generational change (p<0.05). It will be necessary to examine the coat color genes when selecting breeding horses so that the diversity of coat colors among the Jeju horse group can be maintained.

PURPOSES : The objective of this study is to evaluate the effect of the residual mortar of recycled concrete aggregate on the expansion behavior during alkali silica reaction (ASR). METHODS: In order to evaluate the net effect of residual mortar on ASR expansion behavior, two aggregate samples with the same original virgin aggregate source but different residual mortar volumes were used. ASTM C1260 test was used to evaluate the ASR expansion behavior of these two aggregates and the original virgin aggregate. RESULTS: The greater the amount of residual mortar in recycled concrete aggregates, the less is the induced ASR expansion. Depending on the amount of residual mortar in recycled concrete aggregate, the ASR expansion of recycled concrete aggregate may be less than half of that of the original virgin aggregate. CONCLUSIONS: The residual mortar of recycled concrete aggregate may lead to the under estimation of the ASR expansion behavior of the original virgin aggregate.

Historical Experience Program is a certain type of a field trip for elementary and middle school students, which includes visiting a historical place and having various outdoor activities related to the historical events that actually happend in the area. Usually the students make a group to participate, but the education is only done with the printed handouts and the guidance teacher's verbal explanation. In this research, we would like to make use of both location-based system and gamification theories to advance the educational form. Each students will be given smart devices to perform the tasks that are conducted by gamifying the historical information and materials. Location-based system will be guiding them to find the missions and clues around the area. The guidance teacher will be also using a smart device to figure out each student's location and how well they are performing. We've also run the actual field test, and found out that it was a very effective method for Historical Experience Programs. Students were very motivated by cooperting and competing with other students on gamified educational material, and had been very ammused by having outdoor activities using location-based system, and it lead to a significantly effective education.

본 연구는 오차드그라스와 톨 페스큐 혼파초지에서 비축 시기별(8월 1일, 15일, 30일) 으로 처리하여 11월 중순경(11.10∼11.12)에 수확할 때 목초의 비축시기에 따른 생산량과 목초의 사료 가치 등을 비교하기 위해 수행하였다. 목초 비축시기에 따른 오차드그라스와 톨 페스큐 혼파초지(동량 혼파초지)의 건물수량은 8월하순구가 2,983.0kg/ha으로 가장 높은 경향을 보였다. 목초의 비축시기가 늦어짐에 따라 목초의 생산량도 증가하였으나 유의성이 인정되지는 않았다. 조사료의 조단백질은 16.5∼18.16%으로 목초 비축시기별로 일정한 경향을 나타내지 않았다. NDF와 TDN는 비축시기가 늦을수록 증가하는 경향을 나타내었으나 유의성이 인정되지는 않았다. 반면에 ADF 비율은 목초 비축시기가 감소함에 따라 점차 감소하는 것으로 나타내었으나 유의성이 인정되지는 않았다. 무기물의 변화는 비축 기간이 증가할수록 P, Ca, Mg, Na, Zn이 증가하였고 반면에 Mn, Cu는 감소하는 경향을 나타내었다. 결과적으로 8월 초순부터 초지를 비축할 경우 고온으로 인한 생육 위축으로 목초의 수량증가는 기대하기 어렵다. 따라서 제주도에서 가을철에 활용하기 위한 초지를 비축할 경우에는 8월 하순 이후에 시작하는 것이 바람직할 것으로 사료된다.

This study was conducted to evaluate the chemical composition and physico-chemical meat quality properties for Jeju-horse (Jeju-horse×Thoroughbred) with different fattening periods (4-, 8- and 13.5-month). In chemical composition, the moisture contents were decreased as the fattening periods increased. The fat contents were 3.78% at 4-months and they were decreased such as 70∼76% at 13.5-months whereas the protein contents increased as the fattening period increased. The cooking loss was highest (33.41%) at 4-months group and decreased after that periods, however, there was no significant difference among 3 fattening period groups. The Warner-Bratzler shear force (WBS) values were lowest at 4-months group and tended to increase as the fattening period increased. In mineral contents, the contents of Fe, Na, Zn were significantly higher for 4-month group than 8- and 13.5-month group whereas the contents of Mg were significantly lower for 4-month group than 8- and 13.5-month group (p＜0.05). The results of the amino acid composition analysis showed that cystein, methionine, threonine, serine, glutamic acid, alanine, valine, lysine, histidine, arginine contents were significantly increased and tyrosine contents were significantly decreased as the fattening period increased (p<0.05). The contents of palmitic acid (C16:0) were highest at 4-month group and they decreased as the fattening period increased (p＜0.05). The contents of oleic acid (C18:ln9) were highest at 8-month group and they were lowest at 13.5-month group. The total contents of unsaturated fatty acids were significantly higher for 13.5-month group than those for 4-month groups (p＜0.05). In conclusions, the fat contents were decreased whereas the protein, Fe, Mg contents and WHC increased as the fattening periods increased. Overall contents of amino acids increased only except several amino acids. The total contents of unsaturated fatty acids were increased as the fattening period increased, however they were not significantly different when those were fattened more than 8-month. These results indicated that longer fattening period could be more effective to enhance horse meat quality.

Raising replacement heifers is important aspect of dairy farm management that can be characterized as a long-term performance and high-cost production period. This study was investigated the effect of month of age at the first pregnancy on calving difficulty of Holstein heifers. Heifers was inseminated with semen of easy-calving sire and the reproductive performance was compared for the effect of first pregnancy at 12-14 months of age (12 month old), 15-16 months of age (15 month old), 17-19 months of age (17 month old) and > 20 months of age (20 month old) in Holstein heifers. Holstein heifers showed different easy calving score (ECS) depending on their ages; frequency of ECS 1 was 55.2%, 64.9%, 59.4% and 52.0% at 12, 15, 17 and 20 month of age, respectively. Frequency of ECS 4 was 5.2%, 1.8%, 6.3% and 4.8% at 12, 15, 17 and 20 month of age, respectively. The rates of retained placenta postparturition in first pregnancy age category was 12.3% at 12 months of age, 5.3% at 15 months of age, 9.4% at 17 months of age and 19.0% at 20 months of age. When It was evaluated by present results, the reproductive performance like easy calving score (ECS), retained placenta rates, and abortion and stillbirth rates of heifers which was inseminated at 14 months old or less and at 17 months old or more was reduced. Therefore, the first pregnancy age for optimum reproductive performance was 15-16 months.

현재 국내에서는 천연골재 수급의 어려움과 건설폐기물 재사용의 일환으로 기존의 천연골재를 순환골 재로 대체하기 위한 많은 연구가 진행되고 있으며 국가적 차원으로도 순환골재의 사용을 의무화 하였다. 향후 순환골재의 사용량이 늘어날 것으로 예상됨에 따라 순환골재에 대한 전반적인 기초연구가 필요한 실 정이다. 순환골재는 천연골재에 비해 낮은 비중, 높은 흡수율, 각종 이물질 함유 등의 특징을 가지며, 이러한 순환골재를 사용하여 만든 콘크리트는 압축강도와 탄성계수 등의 물성에 있어서 낮은 경향을 나타낼 뿐만 아니라, 커다란 품질편차를 보인다. 따라서 배합 설계시 이론값을 통한 현장강도 계산을 적절히 적용할 수 없을 뿐만 아니라 실내시험과 현장시험간의 결과치가 유사하지 않은 경향을 보일 수 있다. 따라서 순 환골재의 적절한 사용을 위해서는 지속적인 연구를 통한 데이터의 축적이 필요하다. 따라서 본 연구에서는 천연골재 3종, 순환골재 4종을 대상으로 골재 기초 물성 분석 및 XRF 분석을 하 였으며, 또한 보통 포틀랜드 시멘트 외에 고로 슬래그 미분말, 저알칼리 시멘트를 사용하여 알칼리 실리 카 반응성을 촉진 모르타르 봉 시험법(ASTM C-1260)으로 평가 하였다.

The importance of genetic resource preservation has been highlighted in the literature as a means of maintaining genetic diversity. Investigations for hematologic values and the differential count of white blood cell count (WBC) for Korean indigenous cattle (KIC) and endangered indigenous cattle (EIC) are rarely performed. Therefore, the objective of this study was to investigate the hematologic values of total 40 EIC (White, Black, Mini cattle) and 35 KIC as control by analysis of hematologic characteristics. As a result, the mean values of RBC and platelet of EIC were significantly decreased by age (p<0.05). The mean values of RBC, HCT, MCV and MCHC between EIC and KIC of the same age (2 ～3 years) showed the statistical significance (p<0.05). Also, in the WBC of EIC, the mean values were decreased according to the age from 13.9×103/μL～12.7×103/μL under 1 year to 9.1×103/μL～11.5×103/μL over 2 years respectively. In the differential count of WBC of EIC (White, Black, Mini cattle), it showed generally the rates of 40.2%, 52.2%, 49.0% lymphocyte and 27.2%, 33.9%, 32.0% segmented neutrophil from 2～3 years respectively. Result of this study will be used for establishing reference range for blood analysis in EIC such as white, black and mini cattle. This study reported hematological values which could serve as baseline information for comparison in conditions of nutrient deficiency, physiological and health status of endangered Korean native cattle. In addition, this study provides a valuable resource for further investigations of the preservation of rare genetic stocks underlying traits of interest in cattle.

PURPOSES : This study was performed to determine a systematic approach for measuring the coefficient of thermal expansion (COTE) of concrete specimens. This approach includes the initial calibration of measurement equipment. Test variables include coarse aggregate types such as natural aggregate, job-site produced recycled concrete aggregate, and recycled aggregate processed from an intermediate waste treatment company. METHODS: First, two cylindrical SUS-304 specimens with a known COTE value of 17.3×10-6m/m/℃. were used as reference specimens for the calibration of each measurement system. The well-known AASHTO TP-60 COTE apparatus for concrete measurement was utilized in this study. Four different measurement apparatuses were used with each LVDT installed and a calibration value was determined using each measurement apparatus. RESULTS : In the initial experimental stage, calibration values for each measurement apparatus were assumed to be almost identical. However, using the SUS-304 samples as a reference, the calibration values for the four different measurement apparatuses were found to range from 3.49 to 8.86 ×10-6m/m/℃. Using different adjusted values for each measurement apparatuses, COTE values for the three different concrete specimens were obtained. The COTE value of concrete made with natural coarse aggregate was 9.91×10-6m/m/℃, that of job-site produced recycled coarse aggregate was 10.45×10-6m/m/℃, and that of recycled aggregate processed from the intermediate waste treatment company was 10.82×10-6m/m/℃. CONCLUSIONS: We observed that the COTE value of concrete made from recycled concrete aggregates (RCA) was higher than that of concrete made from natural coarse aggregate. This difference is due to the fact that the total volumetric mortar proportion in the RCA mix is higher than that in the concrete mix made with natural coarse aggregate.

Base isolation is considered as a seismic protective system in the design of next generation Nuclear Power Plants (NPPs). If seismic isolation devices are installed in nuclear power plants then the safety under a seismic load of the power plant may be improved. However, with respect to some equipment, seismic risk may increase because displacement may become greater than before the installation of a seismic isolation device. Therefore, it is estimated to be necessary to select equipment in which the seismic risk increases due to an increase in the displacement by the installation of a seismic isolation device, and to perform research on the seismic performance of each piece of equipment. In this study, modified NRC-BNL benchmark models were used for seismic analysis. The numerical models include representations of isolation devices. In order to validate the numerical piping system model and to define the failure mode, a quasi-static loading test was conducted on the piping components before the analysis procedures. The fragility analysis was performed by using the results of the inelastic seismic response analysis. Inelastic seismic response analysis was carried out by using the shell finite element model of a piping system considering internal pressure. The implicit method was used for the direct integration time history analysis. In addition, the collapse load point was used for the failure mode for the fragility analysis.

The purpose of this study was to investigate the association between dietary behavior and temperament & character in preschool children, and to offer basic data that can be applied for nutrition education and counseling. A total of 211 parents of preschool children aged 3~5 years performed the Korean version of Preschool Temperament and Character Inventory (K-psTCI), a questionnaire based on Cloninger's seven-factor model of personality, along with a questionnaire about the dietary behaviors of their children. K-psTCI represented seven factors such as harm avoidance (HA), novelty seeking (NS), reward dependence (RD), persistence (P), self-directedness (SD), cooperativeness (CO), and self-transcendence (ST). The subjects were divided into either the high rank group or low rank group based on the mean score of each factor. The high rank group of HA showed significantly less physical activity and less appetite than the low rank group of HA. The children in the high rank of NS were more likely to have picky eating and a late night snack. The children in the low rank of SD or CO were more likely to have undesirable dietary behaviors, such as picky eating, too much snacking, and lower appetite than those in the high rank of SD or CO. In conclusion, individual temperament & character in preschool children may be associated with their dietary behavior, and understanding temperament & character in children may be important facts to screen and to develop an effective nutrition education program for children.

Horses are non-ruminant and monogastric animal. If concentrates are fed plentifully at a time, undigested starch reaches large intestine and it activates amyloytic bacteria. Finally, it lowers a pH level and causes colic. Therefore, standard feed of concentrates and period of feed are important factors to fat up horses. This study was conducted to evaluate the productivity and carcass quality, quantity grade for Jeju horse (24 month old) with different fattening periods (4-, 8- and 13.5-month). The body weights were increased as the fattening periods increased and the increase rate was highest at 4-month group. The daily weight gain was decreased as the fattening periods increased such as 0.46 kg for 4-month group, 0.39 kg for 8-month group and 0.34 kg for 13.5-month groups. The daily intake was increased as the fattening periods increased such as 4.42 kg for 4-month group, 5.00 kg for 8-month group and 5.26 kg for 13.5-month groups. The daily feed conversion was increased as the fattening periods increased such as 11.71% for 4-month group, 17.69% for 8-month group and 18.53% for 13.5-month group. The backfat thicknesses and loin-eye areas were 3.50 mm, 83.50 ㎠ and increased to 4.20 mm, 94.00 ㎠ until they were fattening up for 8-month then they were decreased to 4.00 mm, 89.40 ㎠ when they were fattening up to 13.5-month. There was no significant difference in the meat color among 3 fattening groups, however, the a-values (redness) of meat color and b-values of fat color were highest (5.0 and 3.80, respectively) for 13.5-month group. The texture was not significantly different among 3 fattening groups. The maturity levels were in the 3.8∼4.5. All horses used in the experiment had the quality grade 2 and the horses for 13.5-month group had the quantity grade A, whereas the horses for 4-month group had the quantity grade B or C. Jeju horse had the low quality grade (quality grade 2) although the carcass yield increased when they were fattened from 24 month to 37.5 month.

Presently, the first pregnancy age of dairy heifers attended National Dairy Herd Improvement Program (NDHI) in Korea has increased, and more research have been requested to evaluate the possibility of decreasing the first pregnancy age of dairy heifers. Accordingly, this study was investigated the effects of the month of age at the first service and pregnancy on the reproductive efficiency of Holstein heifers. For these, the reproductive performance of heifers was analyzed by evaluating the effects of first insemination service at 12-14 months of age (12 month old), 15-16 months of age (15 month old), 17-19 months of age (17 month old), and > 20 months of age (20 month old) in Holstein heifers. The service numbers per conception in the first insemination months were 1.85±1.22, 1.59±0.77, 1.58±0.72, and 1.76±0.97 times at 12, 15, 17 and 20 months of age, respectively. The conception rates in the first service were 51.2, 57.8, 54.8, and 52.9% at 12, 15, 17 and 20 months of age, respectively. The conception ages were 453.2±78.9, 512.1±75.9, 590.1±98.0, and 713.0±74.5 days in the heifers serviced firstly at 12, 15, 17 and 20 months of age, respectively. There was significantly difference in the conception age among groups (p<0.05). The cumulative conception rates in the heifers serviced firstly at 12, 15, 17 and 20 months of age were 51.21, 57.8, 54.8 and 53.0% by the first service, 29.8, 30.1, 32.3, 23.5% by the second service, and 19.0, 12.1, 12.9 and 23.5% by the third service, respectively. The service numbers per conception in the first pregnancy months were 1.31, 1.55, 2.0, 2.05 times at 12, 15, 17 and 20 months of the first service age, respectively. The service numbers per conception in the 12 and 15 months of age were significantly lower than those in the 17 and 20 months of age (p<0.05). The rates of repeat-breeder were 6.0, 11.3, 22.0, and 41.0% in the heifers serviced firstly at 12, 15, 17 and 20 months of age, respectively. These results demonstrate that first pregnancy of Holstein heifers should be conducted at 15 months of age, because the age at first pregnancy in heifers can be substantially influenced through implementation of reproductive management and performance.

Animal-assisted-activity programs are often used in pediatric hospital settings to provide emotional support and diversion, however there is little research about their efficacy. AAA for using insect affect children was examined in this study of 50 elementary school children. Self-reported (self-esteem, sociality and stress) were measured. Self-esteem and sociality rating of the children, and display of positive affect were enhance in the AAA group. This study provides further support to the numerous health benefits of AAA, particularly for children in elementary school.

본 연구는 갈색거저리(Tenebrio molitor)의 사료로 주로 이용되는 밀기울을 대체할 사료원료 개발을 목표로 수행되었다. 대체원료로서 열풍 건조시킨 귤껍질, 배추, 새송이버섯 및 팽이버섯 폐배지를 사용하였으며, 투여 후 유충의 생존율, 유충 무게, 유충의 발육기간, 용화율, 용무게를 측정하였다. 귤껍질과 배추를 첨가한 배지는 대체 먹이로 적합하지 않았다. 새송이버섯 폐배지의 모든 실험군에서 유충의 생존율은 대조군과 비 슷하였으나 유충의 무게는 대조군에 비해 다소 낮게 나타났고, 유충 발육기간은 폐배지의 함량이 높아질수록 길어짐이 관찰되었다. 팽이버섯 폐 배지 20~50% 첨가 조건에서 대조군과 비슷한 유충 및 용무게가 측정되었으며, 계대사육시 밀기울 사료에 40~50% 팽이버섯 폐배지를 첨가하 는 것이 용화율을 고려했을 때 가장 효과적일 것으로 분석되었다. 결론적으로, 팽이버섯 폐배지를 40%~50% 첨가한 조건에서 기존의 밀기울 사 육법과 비슷한 높은 효율성을 나타내기 때문에 팽이버섯 폐배지는 갈색거저리 유충의 대체사료로서 적합하다고 사료된다.
