In this study, the safety and efficacy of an spot on formulation composed of Fluralaner (40mg/kg)and Moxidectin (2mg/kg) against internal and external parasites was evaluated in Korean cats. The product was developed as a topical use in cats to prevent or control internal and external parasites including ticks, fleas, gastrointestinal parasites, ear mite and heartworm. As a result of the study, targeted for total 30 cats from 8 Korean animal hospitals, this combination of Fluralaner and Moxidectin was found to be very safe in cats, and its effectiveness against external parasites (ticks, fleas, and ear mites) was fully verified. In addition, As the animals exposed in the infective circumstances of heartworm and gastrointestinal parasites were remained negative during the study period of 12 weeks after treatment of test drug, it was determined that this product had a potential preventive effect against the heartworms and gastrointestinal parasites.

본 연구는 정지용의 비로봉1 의 종교적 해석 가능성을 탐색하고, 이를 통 해 시적 위상을 재검토하는 것을 목표로 한다. 비로봉1 은 종교시와 산수시의 정신주의가 교차하는 복합적 미학을 드러내는 시편이며, 정지용의 시 세계에서 종교시와 산수시로 이행하는 시적 여정의 중요한 전환점을 이루는 작품이다. 본 연구는 비로봉1 의 핵심적 상징을 ‘불’과 ‘이마’로 보고, 산 정상에서 ‘이 마’를 통해 초월적 세계를 감각하는 방식과 ‘성냥불을 그싯는’ 행위로 형상화된 신앙적 태도의 결합을 고찰함으로써 비로봉1 해석의 지평을 넓힌다. ‘이마’ 는 인간과 초월적 자연을 연결하는 감각적 통로로 작용하며, ‘성냥불’은 내면의 불꽃이 점화되는 상징적 순간으로 해석된다. 이 과정에서 시적 주체는 비로봉 정상을 ‘육체 없음’의 장소성을 경험하며, 연정을 ‘산드랗게’ 얼게 하는 행위를 통해 내적 평온과 정신적 고양에 도달한다. 이러한 귀결은 차갑고 평화로운 정 신성을 지향하는 과정에서 정지용 시의 사유 방식이 어떻게 전환되는지를 보여 준다. 비로봉1 은 신앙적 숭고와 정신성, 그리고 초월적 세계에 대한 경외감 이 응집된 결절점으로서 정지용 시 세계의 내적 연속성을 입증하는 시편이라 할 수 있다.

Damage to masonry walls can occur for various factors. It is often believed that heavy rains and increased rainfall cause soil and sand to flow into the stone masonry walls, leading to this damage. However, no research has definitively proven or analyzed this causal relationship.This study aims to evaluate the causes of damage to masonry walls due to severe rainfall and to propose preventive strategies to mitigate future risks. The assessment found that, as a form of cultural heritage, the stone masonry walls did not exhibit any structural or material issues that could compromise their stability. However, concerns were raised about potential problems arising from hydraulic pressure due to rising groundwater levels. Calculations and computer simulations confirmed that the risk of collapse increases with higher groundwater levels. Therefore, it is essential to carry out repairs and reinforcements to prevent a recurrence of this situation.

Water-soluble substances like hydrogen fluoride, generated in semiconductor manufacturing, pose serious health and environmental risks, underscoring the need for effective capture devices. Vertical liquid capture devices help by aggregating and discharging hazardous substances with water, but their design can lead to backflow during abnormal operations, causing unintended releases and impacting efficiency and safety. This study seeks to improve a vertical liquid collection device’s containment performance by optimizing its geometry. The vertical wall was rotated at various angles and directions, and turbulent kinetic energy and streamline distribution were analyzed to assess vortex formation and flow characteristics. These structural modifications identify optimal conditions to control hazardous substance migration, offering insights for future pollutant removal device designs.

In this study, Pleurotus ostreatus were grown in bottles at temperatures set to 15°C, 20°C, and 25°C inside the cultivation room. Changes in temperature, CO2 concentration, and humidity inside the bottles were measured, and growth characteristics according to the temperature conditions were evaluated. CO2 concentration increased overall as the temperature increased and was particularly stable at 20°C, suggesting that 20°C is the optimal condition for the physiological respiration of P. ostreatus . While humidity was relatively constant at 15°C, it decreased over time at 20°C and was maintained at a stable level at 25°C, suggesting that water retention capacity may occur at high temperatures. As a result of the growth investigation, the yield per bottle and individual weight were the highest at 20°C, confirming that 20°C is the most suitable temperature condition for the growth of oyster mushrooms. At 25°C, the yield per bottle was maintained but the individual weight decreased and the color tended to change. These results suggest that the interaction between CO2 concentration, humidity, and temperature has a significant effect on the growth and quality of oyster mushrooms, and that it is effective to control the cultivation room temperature to 20°C for optimal growth.

Evaluating the performance of asphalt concrete using CT scanning has become an essential area of research due to its potential to revolutionize the way we assess road materials. Traditional methods often require destructive sampling, which can damage infrastructure and offer limited insight into the material's internal structure. In contrast, CT scanning provides a non-destructive, highly detailed analysis of asphalt's internal features, such as air voids, aggregate distribution, and binder coverage, all of which are critical to its durability and performance. Additionally, the ability to create 3D models from CT scans allows for deeper insights into factors like void connectivity and aggregate bonding, which directly affect the lifespan of pavements. By combining CT imaging with advanced data processing techniques, such as deep learning, this research offers more accurate and reliable methods for optimizing asphalt mix designs, ultimately leading to longer-lasting roads, reduced maintenance costs, and more sustainable construction practices.

Full spectrum fitting is a powerful tool for estimating the stellar populations of galaxies, but the fitting results are often significantly influenced by internal dust attenuation. For understanding howthe choice of the internal dust correction method affects the detailed stellar populations estimated from the full spectrum fitting, we analyze the Sydney-Australian Astronomical Observatory Multiobject Integral field spectrograph (SAMI) galaxy survey data using the Penalized PiXel-Fitting (PPXF) package. Three choices are compared: (Choice-1) using the PPXF reddening option, (Choice-2) using the multiplicative Legendre polynomial, and (Choice-3) using none of them (no dust correction). In any case, the total mean stellar populations show reasonable mass-age and mass-metallicity relations (MTR and MZR), although the correlations appear to be strongest for Choice-1 (MTR) and Choice-2 (MZR). Whenwe compare the age-divided mean stellar populations, theMZRof young (<109.5 yr ≈ 3.2 Gyr) stellar components in Choice-2 is consistent with the gas-phase MZR, whereas those in the other two choices hardly are. On the other hand, the MTR of old (≥109.5 yr) stellar components in Choice-1 seems to be more reasonable than that in Choice-2, because the old stellar components in low-mass galaxies tend to be relatively younger than those in massive galaxies. Based on the results, we provide empirical guidelines for choosing the optimal options for dust correction.

Background: Limitations of shoulder range of motion (ROM), particularly shoulder internal rotation (SIR), are commonly associated with musculoskeletal disorders in both the general population and athletes. The limitation can result in connective tissue lesions such as superior labrum tears and symptoms such as rotator cuff tears and shoulder impingement syndrome. Maintaining the center of rotation of the glenohumeral joint during SIR can be challenging due to the compensatory scapulothoracic movement and anterior displacement of the humeral head. Therefore, observing the path of the instantaneous center of rotation (PICR) using the olecranon as a marker during SIR may provide valuable insights into understanding the dynamics of the shoulder joint. Objects: The aim of the study was to compare the displacement of the olecranon to measure the rotation control of the humeral head during SIR in individuals with and without restricted SIR ROM. Methods: Twenty-four participants with and without restricted SIR ROM participated in this study. The displacement of olecranon was measured during the shoulder internal rotation control test (SIRCT) using a Kinovea (ver. 0.8.15, Kinovea), the 2-dimensional marker tracking analysis system. An independent t-test was used to compare the horizontal and vertical displacement of the olecranon marker between individuals with and without restricted SIR ROM. The statistical significance was set at p < 0.05. Results: Vertical displacement of the olecranon was significantly greater in the restricted SIR group than in the control group (p < 0.05). However, no significant difference was observed in the horizontal displacement of the olecranon (p > 0.05). Conclusion: The findings of this study indicated that individuals with restricted SIR ROM had significantly greater vertical displacement of the olecranon. The results suggest that the limitation of SIR ROM may lead to difficulty in rotation control of the humeral head.

Prestressed Concrete Containment Vessels(PCCV)는 중대사고 발생 시 방사능 누출을 막기 위한 최 후의 방벽이며 체르노빌 및 스리마일 섬 원전 사고 이후 PCCV의 내압성능에 대한 관심이 높아졌다. PCCV는 장비반입 및 작업자 출입 등을 위한 다양한 관통부가 존재한다. 이러한 관통부로 인해 PCCV는 비축대칭적인 변형을 보이며 관통부는 취약부위로 고려된다. 하지만 관통부의 거동은 전체모 델에서 정확히 모사할 수 없다. 따라서 PCCV의 내압성능 평가를 위한 규제지침인 Reguratory Guide(RG) 1.216은 관통부에 대한 내압성능 평가를 위해 상세국부모델을 작성하여 평가하도록 권고하고 있다. 하 지만 대부분의 국부모델을 이용한 PCCV의 내압성능 평가와 관련된 선행연구는 전체모델을 이용하여 관통부의 응답을 관측하고 보정인자를 사용하여 수행되었다. 따라서 본 연구는 내압을 받는 1:4 scale PCCV의 관통부에 대한 거동 분석과 내압성능 평가를 위해 관통부의 상세 국부 유한요소 모델을 구축 하였다. 미국의 Sandia National Laboratory의 실험적 연구 결과와 비교하여 구축된 모델을 검증하였 으며 관통부의 내압거동을 분석하였다.

Background: Effective trunk stabilization has been a cornerstone in physiotherapy, particularly for individuals with lower back issues. While bridging exercises were traditionally employed for this purpose, there has been a growing interest in their modified versions to optimize therapeutic benefits. Objectives: To investigated the differential effects of traditional and modified bridging exercises, particularly when varying leg support and integrating abduction maneuvers during sling-assisted exercises, on trunk muscle responsiveness. Design: Cross-Sectional study. Methods: A group of twenty participants was subjected to three exercise protocols: Bilateral Limb Bridging (BLB), Single Limb Bridging (SLB), and Single Limb Bridging combined with Hip Abduction (SLBHA). Using Surface Electromyography (EMG), the study captured the activation patterns of the Internal Oblique (IO), Erector Spinae (ES), and Multifidus (MF) muscles. Statistical analysis was conducted using the Kruskal-Wallis test, with post-hoc examination for detailed insights. For data consistency, normalization was executed based on Maximum Voluntary Isometric Contractions, and EMG data interpretation was conducted using the RMS technique. Results: The most prominent variations in muscle activation were identified in the IO muscles on both sides. The left IO displayed marked activation disparities between BLB vs. SLB and SLB vs. SLBHA. Analogous observations were made for the right IO when comparing BLB to SLBHA and BLB to SLB. Conversely, ES and MF muscle activations remained consistent across the different exercises. Conclusion: Modified bridge exercises with sling-assisted leg supports with abduction can selectively activate IO muscles, with a noticeable asymmetrical effect favoring the left side.

This study attempted to provide implications by analyzing the impact of business Owner’s safety commitment on industrial accidents and examining the mediating role of management supervisors’ safety leadership and worker participation. Analysis was conducted on 2,067 manufacturing sites with 20 to 50 employees in the 10th Occupational Safety and Health Survey data. SPSS waw used to secure the reliability of the measurement variable. Hypothesis vertification was carried out after securing the suitability and validity of the structural model using AMOS. The direct impact of three latent variables on industrial accidents was confirmed: the business owner’s safety commitment, the management supervisor’s safety leadership, and the worker participation. The employer’s safety will and the management supervisor’s safety leadership do not directly affect industial accidents, but it has been verified that worker participation has a diret impact on industrial accident reduction. In addition, it has been confirmed that the safety leadership and worker participation of the management. Supervior have a complete mediating effect on the reduction of industrial accidents by mediating with the safety leadership of the management supervior and the participation of the workers. This study analyzed the impact on industrial accidents by dividing the stakeholders constituting the workplace into three classes: business owners, superviors, and workers, but the results suggest that employers and all workers inside the workplace may be organically linked to achieving the goal of reducing industrial accidents. Therefore, in order to establish an autonomous safety management system for safety and health at workerplaces, efforts are needed to reduce industrial accidents in their respective location by forming an organic community among internal stakeholders.

이 연구는 이승우 소설 ｢방｣에 나타나는 ‘내적 욕망과 자기발견’으로의 치매 모티프를 분석했다. 이를 확인하기 위해 정의의 관점에서 인물의 죄의식 형성 동기를 살피고, 치매 모티프가 인물이 내적 욕망을 표출하 도록 이끄는 과정을 감정 활성화와 심리적 각성 정도와 연결해 분석했 다. 그러나 이렇게 드러난 내적 욕망은 표면적인 것이며, 인물이 마지막 순간에서야 마주하게 되는 근원적 욕망은 타자에게 자신을 비추는 자기 성찰이 이뤄진 후에야 발견됨을 확인했다. 본 연구의 결과는 한국소설에 서 질병이 알레고리로 다뤄지던 것과 달리 이승우 소설에서 치매가 새로 운 서사적 모티프로 나타나고 있음을 보여줬다. 치매가 상황을 발생시키 는 소재 차원에 머무르는 것이 아니라, 인물의 내면을 드러내고 제3자를 통한 서사적 성취로까지 이어지고 있다는 점에서 의미가 있다.
