Abstract In this study, micro-defects on/in carbon fibers were modified by irradiation with an electron beam, which improved the mechanical strength of single carbon fibers. The electron beam irradiation was 10 kGy (using a 1.5 MeV accelerator in the air). The total doses ranged from 100 to 500 kGy. The tensile strength of the single carbon fiber was measured using a universal testing machine. The micro-defects on the fiber surface were observed with scanning electron microscopy and atomic force microscopy, and those in the fiber were evaluated by Raman spectroscopy. In conclusion, the electron beam treatment produced changes in the micro-defects on/in the carbon fibers, resulting in up to 14% improvement in the tensile strength of single carbon fiber.
목적 : 본 연구는 중년기 성인의 감각 처리 능력과 직무 스트레스 및 여가활동 정도를 알아보고, 감각 처 리에 따른 직무 스트레스 및 여가활동 및 수면과의 상관성을 규명하여 중년기 성인에서의 감각 통합의 중요성을 강조하고자 한다.
연구방법 : 청소년/성인 감각 프로파일을 이용하여 40-50대의 중년기의 성인 남자 107명, 여자 100명을 대상으로 감각 처리 능력과 직무 스트레스 및 여가활동을 평가하였다.
결과 : 첫째, 중년기 성인의 ‘감각등록 저하’, ‘감각 민감’ 및 ‘감각 회피’는 ‘대부분의 사람들과 유사’한 양 상을 나타냈지만, ‘감각 찾기’는 대부분의 사람들보다 감각 자극을 적게 받아들이는 것으로 나타났다. 둘 째, 중년기 성인의 감각 처리, 직무 스트레스, 여가활동과의 상관관계 결과, ‘감각 찾기’에 적극적인 사람 들이 스트레스가 적고 여가활동에 더 많이 참여하는 것으로 나타났다. 셋째, 중년기 성인의 감각 처리와 직무 스트레스, 수면과의 상관관계 결과, ‘감각등록 저하’와 ‘감각 민감’이 높을수록 직무 스트레스가 높 게 나타나 수면 부족이 중년기의 감각 통합 활동과 직무 스트레스에 영향을 미치는 것으로 나타났다.
결론 : 본 연구를 통해 감각 처리 능력이 중년기의 삶의 만족도를 높이기 위한 중요한 요소이며, ‘감각 찾 기’가 직무 스트레스와 여가활동의 참여와 관련이 있었음을 알 수 있었다.
This paper analyzed the correlation between injection molding factors through correlation analysis. In addition, the decision-tree model, which is a white box model with excellent explanatory power, was used to obtain optimal molding conditions that satisfy multiple constraint conditions. First, 243 data to be used in the experiment were created through a full factorial design. Second, a correlation analysis was conducted to understand the correlation. Third, to verify the decision-tree model, the prediction performance was evaluated using RMSE. As a result, good prediction performance was confirmed. A decision-tree experiment analysis was conducted. As a result of the progress, the same results as the correlation analysis were derived. Based on the previous analysis results, optimal molding conditions were applied to CAE. As a result, the amount of deformation in the multi-cavity could be improved by about 1.1% and 2.72% while satisfying the constraint.
Background: Volleyball is a team sport that requires a lot of movement and explosive movement. Volleyball players have different roles depending on their position. The reason is that the spiker or center is tall and the libero or setter is relatively small compared to other positions. Objectives: To investigate a difference in basic physical fitness according to the positions of volleyball players and to examine the correlation between basic physical fitness items. Design: Correlational research designs. Methods: A total of 33 male professional volleyball players were recruited for each position by position: 15 spikers, 7 centers, 5 setters, and 6 liberos. Muscle endurance, power, agility, and balance ability were measured as basic physical fitness items. Results: There was a statistically significant difference in agility according to each position (P<.05), and a positive correlation was indicated in muscle endurance and power (P<.05). Conclusion: A training program can be developed based on the correlation between training and basic physical fitness according to the positions of volleyball players.
PURPOSES : In a previous study, an error was detected in data pertaining to the direction and velocity of a roller. Hence, in this study, the correlation between these two variables and acceleration data is analyzed. Relevant algorithms are developed by adding variables to existing algorithms.
METHODS : A tachometer and GPS are used to acquire the velocity, compaction direction of rollers, and number of compactions. Subsequently, data input to an accelerometer are compared and analyzed.
RESULTS : Based on FFT analysis, it is discovered that the data are inaccurate when a forward reverse is performed. Using the GPS, the velocity of the roller is differentiated based on the number of pledges, and then added as a variable to the algorithm. Subsequently, it is evaluated and analyzed only with data during forward movement based on changes in the latitude and longitude.
CONCLUSIONS : It is discovered that the acceleration data values from both the left and right rollers differ owing to their weight difference, as indicated by the asphalt gradient. Data changes based on asphalt gradients are analyzed using gyro sensors. If the correlation between the two sets of data is high, then the algorithm is advanced by introducing a cross spectrum after calibrating the acceleration value based on the gradient.
Background: Physical activity and quality of life (QOL) influence the health status of older adults. Recently, the use of wearable devices to monitor physical activity has increased.
Objects: This study examined the relationship between the amount of physical activity, measured using a wearable device, and QOL among older adults.
Methods: In total, 71 older adults (aged ≥ 65 years) were enrolled. The amount of physical activity was measured using a wearable device with a wrist strap, and daily physical activity was classified according to intensity (sedentary, light, moderate, or very active). Self-reported QOL was evaluated using the Short Form 36 (SF-36) questionnaire. Pearson and Spearman correlation analyses were conducted to analyze parametric and non-parametric variables, respectively. The relationship between amount of daily physical activity and SF-36 scores was assessed.
Results: The correlation analyses revealed positive correlations between the amount of moderate- intensity and very active physical activity (minutes/day) and SF-36 scores (p < 0.05). Conclusion: Physical activity of at least moderate intensity is associated with better QOL in older adults. Further studies are required to verify the effects of increased physical activity on QOL in older adults.
후쿠시마 원전사고 발생으로 다수기의 지진안전성에 관한 연구의 필요성이 부각되었다. 한 부지에 건설된 원자력발전소의 경우 유 사한 지진응답을 보이기 때문에 적게나마 원자력발전소 SSCs간의 지진손상에 대하여 상관성이 존재하므로 합리적 지진안전성 평가 를 위하여 지진손상 상관성을 고려하여야 한다. 본 연구에서는 쌍둥이 호기의 필수전원상실사건에 대하여 확률론적 지진안전성 평가 를 수행하였다. 적절한 지진손상 상관계수를 도출하기 위하여 확률론적 지진응답해석을 수행하여 적용하였다. External Event Mensuration System 프로그램을 활용하여 다수기의 필수전원상실사건의 고장수목을 구성하여 지진취약도 및 지진리스크를 분석하 였다. 또한 SSCs간의 지진손상 상관성을 완전독립 및 완전종속으로 고려하여 비교 분석을 수행하였다.
Seismic fragility analysis of a structure is generally performed for the expected critical component of a structure. The seismic fragility analysis assumes that all the components behave independently in a structural system. A bridge system consists of many inter-connected components. Thus, for an accurate evaluation of the seismic fragility of a bridge, the seismic fragility analysis requires the composition of probabilities considering the correlation between structural components. This study presented a procedure to obtain the seismic fragility curve of a bridge system, considering the correlation between bridge components. Seismic fragility analysis was performed on a PSC bridge that is considered as the central infrastructure. The analysis results showed that the probability of the seismic fragility curve of the bridge system was higher than that of each bridge component.
본 연구는 남부지역에서 사료용 옥수수(Zea mays L.)의 수량과 기후요인 간의 상관관계를 비교하기 위하여 수행하였다. 실험에 사용한 사료용 옥수수 품종은 광평옥이었으며, 2017년에서 2019년까지 3년간 경상남도(진주)와 전라남도(나주, 장흥)의 시험포장에서 각각 수행하였다. 사료용 옥수수의 평균 간장은 경상남도에서 250.1±52.9 cm로 전라남도의 215.2±25.2 cm 보다 유의적으로 더 높게 나타났다. 암이삭 평균 착수고의 경우에도 경상남도가 119.8±31.4 cm로 전라남도의 89.5±18.3 cm 보다 더 높게 나타났다. 옥수수의 평균 총 건물수량은 유의적 차이는 없었으나, 경상남도에서 16045±5012 kg·ha-1로 더 많았다. 이러한 차이는 옥수수 유식물 정착기인 5월 중의 유효적산온도와 강수량, 그리고 전 생육기간 중의 일조시간 등이 경상남도 지역이 더 많았기 때문으로 판단된다. 암이삭의 평균 건물수량은 경상남도가 6363±2728 kg·ha-1로 전라남도의 3998±2750 kg·ha-1 보다 더 많았는데, 이는 개화결실기 때의 평균 최고기온에 노출정도의 차이에 의한 것으로 추측된다. 사료용 옥수수의 기후요인과 건물수량과의 상관관계를 분석한 결과, 5월 강수량(0.54)과 6월 강수량(0.52), 그리고 8월 평균기온(0.60)과 8월 평균 최고기온(0.60)이 가장 높은 양의 상관관계를 나타내었으며, 경엽부 건물수량도 유사한 경향을 나타내었는데, 이는 초기 유식물 생육기의 강수량이 건물수량에 미치는 영향이 중요하며, 여름철 고온기인 8월의 기온이 C4작물인 옥수수의 생장에 중요한 요인으로 영향을 미친 것으로 판단된다. 또한 암이삭 건물수량은 웅수와 암이삭이 직접 대기에 노출되는 시기인 7월의 평균기온(-0.85)과 평균 최고기온(-0.79)과 음의 상관관계를 나타내어, 개화 수정기 때의 고온이 결실률에 영향을 미치는 중요한 요인임을 추측할 수 있었다. 향후 기후요소가 옥수수의 생육 및 생산성에 미치는 영향을 더욱 정확하게 분석하기 위한 데이터 축적을 위해서는 추가적인 후속 연구가 수행되어야 할 것으로 판단된다.
