Existing reinforced concrete buildings with seismically deficient column details affect the overall behavior depending on the failure type of column. This study aims to develop and validate a machine learning-based prediction model for the column failure modes (shear, flexure-shear, and flexure failure modes). For this purpose, artificial neural network (ANN), K-nearest neighbor (KNN), decision tree (DT), and random forest (RF) models were used, considering previously collected experimental data. Using four machine learning methodologies, we developed a classification learning model that can predict the column failure modes in terms of the input variables using concrete compressive strength, steel yield strength, axial load ratio, height-to-dept aspect ratio, longitudinal reinforcement ratio, and transverse reinforcement ratio. The performance of each machine learning model was compared and verified by calculating accuracy, precision, recall, F1-Score, and ROC. Based on the performance measurements of the classification model, the RF model represents the highest average value of the classification model performance measurements among the considered learning methods, and it can conservatively predict the shear failure mode. Thus, the RF model can rapidly predict the column failure modes with simple column details.

There is a growing trend towards consumption of meat alternatives. In response to rising demand, many brands add meat alternative options to their offerings (e.g., Impossible Whopper from Burger King, McPlant from McDonald’s). Consistent with this trend, a growing literature explores how to encourage consumers to reduce meat consumption and increase acceptance of meat alternatives. However, there are two major limitations in literature. First, most studies in this area do not employ real behavioral outcomes as the focal dependent variable. As a result, we cannot be certain that such findings can be extrapolated into real-world settings. Second, the majority of studies have focused on cognitive factors in investigating acceptance of meat alternatives. Hence, there is a need to attend more to affective factors when investigating how we can advertise meat alternatives. Against this backdrop, the present research investigates the interactive effect between regulatory mode (a motivational factor) and positive emotion (an affective factor) for driving social media engagement in advertising meat alternatives. Regulatory mode theory posits that consumers engage in goal pursuit by adopting locomotion (a motivation to “just do it”) and assessment orientations (a motivation to “do the right thing”). We propose that different, discrete positive emotions could interact with regulatory mode to create “fit” effects. Specifically, the fit between assessment orientation and the emotion of awe, and between locomotion orientation and the emotion of love will lead to increased social media engagement.

본 연구의 목적은 의미 있는 대상의 선호도 판단에 영향을 미치는 것으로 알려진 원리인 내적 편향 원리와 규범적 관점 간의 상호작용 양상을 연구하는 데에 있다. 개별 개체의 친숙도가 규범적 관점에 영향을 미친다는 점 또한 고려 하여 친숙도 수준에 따른 두 선호도 원리의 작용 양상을 검증하고자 하였다. 이를 위하여 이중 대안 선택 과제를 활용한 행동 반응 실험을 진행하였으며, 친숙도 수준(높음/낮음)에 따라 각 8개의 단일 개체를 실험 재료로 하여 내 적 편향 원리 준수 여부와 규범적 관점 준수 여부를 조작하였다. 실험 결과, 내적 편향 원리를 준수한 상태에서 개체 가 제시된 경우가 내적 편향 원리가 위배된 상태로 개체가 제시된 경우보다 더 선호되었다. 선호 판단에 걸리는 반응 시간 또한 더 짧은 것으로 나타났다. 그러나 규범적 관점 준수 여부는 선택 빈도 및 반응 시간에 영향을 미치지 않는 것으로 나타났다. 더불어, 개체의 친숙도는 선호도 판단과 관련된 의사 결정에 간섭 요인으로 작용하는 것으로 나타났다. 이와 같은 결과는 개체 선호도 원리 중 내적 편향의 강도가 규범적 관점에 비해 더 우세하며, 단일 개체가 제시될 때 그에 대한 선호 판단에 있어서 그 개체가 가진 속성보다 시각적 문맥과의 상호작용이 중요하게 작용한다 는 것을 시사한다.

It is important that the plasma torch used in the waste treatment field has a high output to increase throughput. In order to increase the output of the plasma torch, there is a method of increasing the current or extending the length of the plasma arc. Among these methods, high power can be easily achieved simply by increasing current, but it is difficult to ensure electrode life. Therefore, it is necessary to check the appropriate current and arc length conditions to achieve high power and stable operation. In this paper, the power performance according to the arc length, current, and operation mode was confirmed in the transfer mode plasma torch. The test conditions are the distance (arc length) between the plasma torch and the external electrode was set to 5-180 mm, and the current was set to be in the range of 90-460 A. As a result of the test, it was confirmed that the reverse polarity operation had a maximum output of 159 kW depending on the arc length and current, and the positive polarity operation had a maximum output of 138 kW. Through this result, it was confirmed that the arc length had an effect on increasing the output, and that the reverse polarity operation had a longer arc than the positive polarity operation.

Steel brace strengthening is the most popular seismic rehabilitation method for school buildings. This is because the design can be conducted by using relatively easy nonlinear pushover analysis and standard modeling in codes. An issue with steel brace strengthening is that the reinforced building should behave elastically to satisfy performance objectives. For this, the size of steel braces should be highly increased, which results in excessive strengthening cost by force concentration on existing members and foundations due to the considerable stiffness and strength of the steel braces. The main reason may be the brittle failure mode of columns, so this study investigated the relationship between the efficiency of steel brace strengthening and column failure modes. The result showed that the efficiency is highly dependent on the shear capacity ratio of columns and structural analysis methods. School buildings reinforced by steel braces do not need to behave elastically when the shear capacity ratio is low, and pushover analysis is used, which means reducing steel material is possible.

Discharge limits for nuclear power plant gaseous effluents are presented as dose constraints or on the basis of radioactivity or radioactivity concentration. Accordingly, the operator evaluates the amount of radioactive material discharged from a specific nuclear power plant to the environment and periodically reports them to regulators. Multi-step sampling and analysis and calculation are performed during the radioactivity evaluation process of radioactive effluent, and the uncertainty generated in each step causes the uncertainty of the final radioactivity. Considering that the purpose of evaluating radioactivity discharged from nuclear power plants to the environment is to verify the satisfaction of discharge limits and safety margins, it is necessary to accurately evaluate the discharged radioactivity as much as possible, understanding of the uncertainty contained in the reported value of radioactivity and efforts to reduce it. In this study, modelling of the radioactivity evaluation procedure in gaseous effluent discharged as batch mode from nuclear power plant has performed, a generalized framework was established to evaluate the uncertainty based on ISO/IEC Guide 98-3 (GUM: 1995) involved in the whole process, and the uncertainty contained in the calculated radioactivity of each radionuclide (group) was evaluated and its characteristics. In addition, through probabilistic evaluation, the actual probabilistic distribution and statistical characteristics of radioactive effluent releases reported as a single value were confirmed. As a result, the range of values expected to be included in the confidence level of approximately 95% of the distribution of values for radioactivity in a gaseous effluent discharged as a batch mode from nuclear power plant was calculated. And, the priority of each input parameter turned out to be (1) gaseous waste volume, (2) sample bottle volume, and (3) measured radioactivity of the sample. In addition, the probability distribution of the radioactivity was simulated by Monte Carlo method. As such, the mean, minimum, and maximum values in confidence level of 95% were obtained, and they were reasonably matched the calculated value within 5% deviation. It was shown that radioactivity to the environment, which has been reported as a single value, has a specific probabilistic distribution form.

The high-level nuclear waste (HLW) repository is a 500-1,000 m deep geological disposal system with a very long life expectancy for disposing of high-level waste, which is known to have a half-life of several thousand years. This repository is subject to harsh environmental conditions, such as high temperature and radiation from high-level waste, that can cause deterioration and crack. When radiation escapes through cracks, it can injure persons on the ground. Therefore, it is essential to install a sensor that can detect problems such as cracks. But, since the high-level nuclear waste (HLW) repository is sealed with bentonite and backfill, the sensor cannot be removed or replaced once it has been installed. Therefore, it is necessary to develop a highly durable monitoring sensor that can withstand harsh environmental conditions. Before attempting to improve durability, it is first required to assess durability quantitatively. And an accelerated life test is a widely used method for assessing durability. However, it is important to obtain the same failure mode when conducting a reliability test, such as an accelerated life test. If the accelerated life test is conducted using different failure modes, the dependability of the results is inevitably diminished. Therefore, in this study, a representative failure mode for the piezoelectric sensor used in the accelerated life test was derived through experiments and literature research.

As earthquakes have increased in Korea recently, people are paying attention to the seismic performance of buildings built in the past. Many school buildings in Korea were built based on standard drawings before the seismic design was applied. However, since school buildings are often designated as emergency evacuation facilities in case of disasters such as earthquakes, seismic evaluation and retrofit must be done quickly. This study investigated the failure modes among structural components (beams, columns, and joints), focusing on 1980s standard drawings for school buildings. The effects of column axial force, partial masonry infills, and different material strengths for concrete and rebar were considered for detailed evaluation. As a result, most of the joints were found to be the weakest among structural components. Column axial forces tended to make the joints more vulnerable, and partial masonry infills increased the possibility of joint failure and shear failure in columns.

In Korea, five major ports have been designated as sulfur oxide emission control areas to reduce air pollutant emissions, in accordance with Article 10 of the “Special Act on Port Air Quality” and Article 32 of the “Ship Pollution Prevention Regulations”. As regulations against vesseloriginated air pollutants (such as PM, CO2, NOx, and SOx) have been strengthened, the Ministry of Oceans and Fisheries(MOF) enacted rules that newly built public ships should adopt eco-friendly propulsion systems. However, particularly in diesel–electric hybrid propulsion systems,the demand for precise control schemes continues to grow as the fuel saving rate significantly varies depending on the control strategy applied. The conventional Power Take In–Power Take Off(PTI–PTO) mode control adopts a rule-based strategy, but this strategy is applied only in the low-load range and PTI mode; thus, an additional method is required to determine the optimal fuel consumption point. The proposed control method is designed to optimize fuel consumption by applying the equivalent consumption minimization strategy(ECMS) to the PTI–PTO mode by considering the characteristics of the specific fuel oil consumption(SFOC) of the engine in a diesel–electric hybrid propulsion system. To apply this method, a specific fishing vessel model operating on the Korean coast was selected to simulate the load operation environment of the ship. In this study, a 10.2% reduction was achieved in the MATLAB/SimDrive and SimElectric simulation by comparing the fuel consumption and CO2 emissions of the ship to which the conventional rule-based strategy was applied and that to which the ECMS was applied.
