Since there is no clear installation criteria on minimum spacing between signalized intersection and minor road, many problems have occurred in terms of traffic operation and safety. Even though many studies about entrance/exit intersection have been done in operational aspects, there is no specific and detailed research between the signalized intersection and minor road by now. Thus, this research suggests the optimal spacing between signalized intersection and minor road considering traffic operation and safety. Also, survey on vehicle behavior was conducted in this research. In conclusion, by suggesting the required minimum spacing between signalized intersection and minor road, it can be contribute in establishing and operating the installation criteria between signalized intersection and minor road.

Modern roundabouts referred to as relatively safer and more efficient traffic facility than the signalized intersections have been recently deployed and operated and accordingly more research efforts to improve its safety and efficiency have been made so far. This paper introduces a new traffic information system named as Smart Roundabout coupled with Connected Vehicle technique like Vehicle-to-Roadside communication, which has not been attempted before and evaluates its performance with a microscopic simulation model, VISSIM. The proposed system functions to collect driving information of circulating vehicles in the roundabout such as location, speed, critical headway, etc. and help approaching vehicles decide whether to enter the roundabout with an on-board equipment instrumented in the individual vehicle on the basis of calculated gap acceptance of interest. This new system is expected to secure more safety and increase the capacity of the modern roundabout.

Signal optimization model for alternative use of lanes at a signalized intersection with an stop-line added backward was presented in this paper. The simulation results shot-ed that the traffic fed from the stop-line passed the intersection in each specified phasing interval for left and through traffic. The experimental results indicated that the proposed model was much superior to traditional signal optimization methodology in reducing delay, fuel consumption, and disutility index for delay and stops. The effects for reducing delay were greater than those for doing fuel consumption and disutility index due to the added stop-line. The proposed model is expected to alleviate traffic congestion at intersections, both which have no left turn pocket, and which have large left turn volume. The model is recommended to adapted for intersections spaced long among them with no near driveway.

The purpose of this study is to find out whether there is a difference in achievement between blocked practice and interleaved practice according to the difference in domain and type of learning content in mathematics subject, and through this result, it is to confirm whether the effect of interleaved practice in mathematics learning is due to the 'Discriminative-contrast Hypothesis' or the 'Distributed-practice Hypothesis'. Although interleaved practice is more effective than blocked practice, previous studies have not shown consistent results regarding the cause. Therefore, in this study, 103 first-year middle school students were randomly assigned to blocked practice, interleaved practice, remote blocked practice, and remote interleaved practice groups had learning activities over 4 times. The results reveals that the effect of interleaved practice appeared in similar types in the same domain, but the effect of interleaved practice did not appear in different types in different domain. In addition, through this result, it was confirmed that the effect of interleaved practice was due to the 'Discriminative-contrast hypothesis' rather than the 'Distributed-practice hypothesis'. Further research topics were suggested after the issues on the research method and the findings were discussed.

The main purpose of this study is to search a method for reducing traffic accident at signalized intersections. One of the important factors for this is the Left-turn phase sequence. In 1985, the operational principle of Left-turn phase Sequence was changed from Lagging left-turn to Leading left-turn in Korea. Then there was a resonable motive-no exclusive left turn-lane and narrow intersection. So, it is necessary to evaluate the performance difference between Leading and Lagging left -turn phase Sequence. The process of this study is as follows: $\cdot$ First, all the intersection was divided three parts for analysis the traffic safety: Inside part of an Intersection, Crosswalk, Intersection approach and exit. $\cdot$ Second, a safety analysis was performed by using the concepts of 'Effective interphase Period(EIP)' and 'Conflict method' The Study result is that the benefit of of phase Sequence changes from Leading to Lagging phase were significant. For an example the Accident cost will reduced about 41.8 billion won per year in korea.

시계열 분석 기법을 통하여 창원시 대산면 갈전리 강변여과수 취수지역의 지하수위와 하천수위와의 연관성을 살펴보았다. 연구지역의 6개 관측공의 30분 간격의 지하수위의 자기상관성을 분석한 결과, 세 개의 그룹으로 나타난다. 이 세 그룹은 낙동강으로부터 가까운 거리에 있으며 강한 자기상관성을 보이는 그룹(1그룹), 하천으로부터 비교적 가깝고 양수정으로부터 떨어져 있는 그룹(2그룹), 그리고 약한 자기상관성을 보이는 그룹(3그룹)으로 나타난다. 1그룹이 강한 자기상관성을 보이는 것은 낙동강의 영향 때문인 것으로 판단되며, 3그룹의 약한 자기상관성은 취수정의 양수의 영향으로 판단된다. 6개 관측공 지하수위와 낙동강 수위의 교차상관분석을 실시한 결과, 교차상관함수가 0.1이하의 낮은 교차상관성을 보이고 있다. 이는 취수정의 양수에 의한 관측공의 수위변동에 의해서 낙동강 수위와의 연관성이 잘 나타나지 않기 때문이다.

Data acquisition is as important as data processing and interpretation in the field of marine geophysical exploration. Marine geophysicist, however, may not have enough information in this field because data acquisition method has been mainly developed by the commercial companies manufacturing the equipment. Therefore, the purpose of this paper is to introduce the general data acquisition method and information to help to construct the systematic and effective survey plan. When a survey plan is set up, the most important thing is to select the seismic equipment based on required penetration depth and resolution, and then construct the survey line intervals. Although a line interval varies from the research purposes, it should be narrower than the expected subsurface structures. Also, if 100% coverage of multibeam data is required, line intervals need to be adjusted based on the equipment characteristics. In case of merging with the preexisting dataset like bathymetry, gravity and magnetic, cross-over errors occurred at the each cross point should be removed to avoid any kinds of misinterpretation.
