The purpose of this study was to investigate the effects of power blog self- presentation and on-line shopping mall reviews on the word of mouth (WOM) effect and apparel purchasing behavior. Consumers living in Seoul and Gyeonggi received questionnaires. There were 303 usable forms that could be analyzed by descriptive statistics, factor analysis, Cronbach’s alpha, and regression analysis. The results were as follows: There was a significant effect of power blog self-presentation such as interactivity, media effect, and business intention on information acceptance through WOM. Power blog self-presentation, such as interactivity and business intention, affect information delivery by WOM significantly. There was a significant effect of review consideration, such as agreement, usefulness, enjoyment, and purity, on information acceptance of WOM. Reviews describing enjoyment, purity, and usefulness affect information delivery of WOM significantly. Business intention, media effect, and purity directly affect apparel-purchasing behavior, and affect the WOM effect as a mediator variable and then purchasing behavior. Whereas, interactivity, overstatement, and enjoyment affect the WOM effect as a mediator variable, and then affect overall purchasing behavior. Therefore, fashion firms consider active interaction with power blog visitors and promote the way of enjoying with fun through review of apparel on-line shopping mall when they try to implement viral marketing with WOM effect.
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.
In a mobile-rack which is applied to shelving or storage units fitted with wheeled traction, 2 step gear ratio and document management system by using RFID based on power line communication are proposed. Each part of the mobile-rack is modeled and then analyzed by finite-element method. Considering the maximum stress and the weight, wheel housing is redesigned. 15.56㎒ RFID module and management program are developed and tested.
The present study investigated the hypothesis that a extremely low frequency magnetic field (ELF-MF) partially suppresses the synthesis of human growth hormone (HGH) in a group of 28 primary schoolchildren living nearby and 60 primary schoolchildren aged 12 years living far away from overhead transmission power lines from December 2003 to April 2004 in Seoul, Korea. The mean personal exposure levels of the primary schoolchildren living nearby overhead transmission power line were 0.37 μT, whereas the levels for the primary schoolchildren living away from overhead transmission power line was 0.05 μT. From simple analyses, the mean growth hormone levels in the primary schoolchildren living nearby were lower than away from overhead transmission power line, and statistically significant differences in the levels of the growth hormone (p = 0.0316), whereas not statistically significant differences in the levels of the growth hormone related to the distance from residence to power line less and more than 100 m by cut-off point (p = 0.4017). In conclusion, these results may indicate that urinary levels of nocturnal growth hormone are altered in primary schoolchildren exposed to extremely low frequency magnetic field at overhead transmission power line.
In this study, the risk factors which derive from the ground condition of typical construction sites are put forward. In order to prioritize the risk elements, the analytical method of AHP was used. The result of using a weighting factor for each risk analysis showed that if the constituency index is less than 0.1, then reliable results and priorities for each of the risk elements can be calculated using the AHP method. From now on, if the range of measured value can be established, the risk or safety value of concrete structures for power lines can be applicable.
박스형 전력구와 같은 지하구조물의 건설은 점점 증가하고 있는 추세이며, 지상구조물에 비해 보수 및 재시공이 어려운 지하구조물의 수명 연장은 매우 중요한 문제로 대두되고 있다. 콘크리트 구조물에서 이산화탄소에 노출된 환경에서 발생하는 탄산화는 콘크리트 내부의 철근을 부식시켜 수명을 저하시키는 요인이 된다. 이 연구에서는 도심지의 두 박스형 전력구에 대한 탄산화 깊이를 측정하여 탄산화에 의한 내구성을 평가하고, 탄산화 측정결과를 바탕으로 몬테카를로 시뮬레이션 기법을 통해 철근의 부식시기를 예측하였다. 탄산화에 의한 기존 도심지의 두 박스형 전력구의 사용수명은 250년 이상으로 예측되었다.
본 논문에서는 전력선 제어 통신 (PLC) 방법을 사용하여 원격지에서 조이스틱으로 게임을 제어하는 시스템을 구현하였다. 시스템의 구성은 원격지의 조이스틱과 컴퓨터 접속부 사이를 일반 가정용 전원 선로로 연결하고, 2400 bps 전송속도의 폴링 제어 기법을 사용하여 조이스틱의 명령을 읽어들이고, 음향 정보를 수신측 PLC 장치에 출력하였다. 게임 제어는 조이스틱의 좌, 우, 상, 하의 방향에 따라 비행기 캐릭터가 움직이고, 총알 발사 명령에 의해 총알을 발사하는 게임을 만들어 실행하였다. 이외에도, 16가지의 조이스틱 게임 조작 명령의 입력이 가능하며, 16가지의 출력 상태가 가능하였다. 게임 조작에 필요한 정보 전달은 약 100 msec 통신 지연에서도 문제가 없음을 확인하였다.
