COSMOS(Cycle, Offset, Split Model for Seoul), a real-time traffic adaptive signal system. estimates queue lengths on each approach on the basis of arithmetic average spot speeds calculated on loop detectors installed at each of two adjacent lanes. In this paper, A new method, a traffic volume-weighted average method, was studied and compared with the existing arithmetic average method. It was found that the relationship between the ratio of volumes of two lanes and the difference of average speed of each lane has a linear form. With field data, The two methods were applied and the proposed method shows more stable and reasonable queue estimation results.

Up to now, various continuous-processing systems are used in many industrial applications such as textile machines, paper-making machines, printing machines, and so on. In these applications, the tension forced on the products in the control volume can be changed according to the velocity difference between the feeding roll and the delivery roll. Specially, the tension variation generated by the velocity difference, or the inertial effect can decreases the quality of the products in the textile process. In this paper, the tension control problem in a circular knitting machine system is treated to cope with these problems. Firstly, the tension relationship in the winding mechanism of general continuous-processing systems is modeled. Next, to effectively drive the feeding and delivery rolls in the circular knitting machine system, a new tension control method is presented by considering the inertia compensation and the velocity difference between the feeding roll and the delivery roll. Through the experimental works, it is shown that the proposed tension control method can be used to improve the performance of tension control in the control volume of the given circular knitting machine system.

Profiles development of melt spinning process of poly(lactic acid) (PLA) was simulated via a numerical method and the radial temperature distribution was calculated using finite difference method. The spinning speed ranged from 1 km/min to 5 km/min was analyzed and the effect of spinning conditions on the radial temperature distribution was investigated. At low spinning speed, the difference between PLA and poly(ethylene terephthalate) (PET) was relatively small. As the spinning speed increased, the difference in velocity profile became prominent. PLA showed a slower spinning speed than PET and solidified more slowly. The temperature difference between the core and surface of the PLA filament reached 4.6 K, which was less than that of PET filament with a difference of 10.4 K. The radial temperature difference increased with increasing the cooling-air velocity and the spinning temperature.

The HEMU-430X is a world-class railway vehicle which aimed the maximum speed of 430km/h and the operation speed of 370km/h. To maintain high-speed operation condition over 300km/h, various requirements for satisfy exist. However, one of the most important things is a reliable supply of electricity. Especially, the dynamic interaction between the pantograph and overhead contact line at high-speed is a significant matter to pre-evaluate. In this paper, using the dynamic interaction analysis program, current collection performance of the HEMU-430X was investigated. Firstly, based on the international standard, performance of the original specifications was evaluated. In addition, through study on changes in tension and span length, improvement of the performance was considered.

Effects of sodium hypochlorite (NaOCl) concentration, temperature and pH on oxidation mechanism of corn starch were investigated. The rate of oxidation was dependent on the concentration of hypochlorite, pH and temperature of oxidation. The reaction was either first or second order depending on the concentration of NaOCl. At oxidant concentration of $0.75{\sim}3.0%$ active Cl/g starch, the reaction was first-order and it was second-order at $3.75{\sim}4.5%$ active Cl/g starch. The first-order rate constants were increased with increasing oxidant concentration. The rate of oxidation of starch was highest at pH 7 and decreased with increasing acidity or alkalinity of the medium. As the reaction temperature increased, the rate of oxidation was increased.

The microorganism was isolated from the night soil treatment plant for the removal of sulfur compounds. The growth conditions of the sulfur-oxidizing bacteria were investigated and the isolate characterized as Thiobacillus noveilus SRM. The optimal pH of Thiobacillus novellus SRM on cell growth was pH 7.0 and the optimal temperature was 30$^{\circ}C$ and the optimal air flow rate was 1 vvm, respectively. As a results of cell growth from the Monod plot, the specific growth rate was 0.032 hr$\^$-l/, $V_{max}$ was 1.43 hr$\^$-l/ and $K_{m}$ was 0.32, respectively. The thiosulfate oxidation by Thiobacillus novellus SRM was made of sulfate ion. The sulfate ion reduced pH and decreased cell growth.

This study introduces a developed artificial neural networks(ANN) model as a more efficient and reliable prediction model in operating speed Prediction with the 85th percentile horizontal curve of two-way rural highway in the aspect of evaluating highway design consistency. On the assumption that the speed is decided by highway geometry features, total 30 survey sites were selected. Data include currie radius, curve length, intersection angle, sight distance, lane width, and lane of those sites and were used as input layer data of the ANN. The optimized model structure was drawn by number of unit of hidden layer, learning coefficient, momentum coefficient, and change in learning frequency in multi-layer a ANN model. To verify learning Performance of ANN, 30 survey sites were selected while data in obtained from the 20 cites were used as learning data and those from the remaining 10 sites were used as predictive data. As a result of statistical verification, the model D of 4 types of ANN was evaluated as the most similar model to the actual operating speed value: R2 was 85% and %RMSE was 0.0204.

The effect of free stream turbulence on the flow characteristics behind a circular cylinder is investigated in the present experimental study. The various free stream turbulent intensities are generated by different combinations of cylinder locations and grid shapes. Split film sensor with constant temperature anemometer is used to measure the local instantaneous velocity components. Experimental results demonstrate the large scale coherent structures are rapidly distorted and the Strouhal number is decreased with increasing free stream turbulent intensity.

씨일의 마모에 따른 터빈펌프의 동적거동을 고찰하기 위해서 10단 터빈펌프를 대상으로 유한요소법에 의한 동특성 해석을 수행하였다. 베어링과 씨일의 동적계수를 회전속도의 하수로 계산하였으며, 이를 동적거동해석에 적용하였다. 해석결과 씨일들은 그 간극이 커질수록 강성 및 감쇠계수가 크게 떨어지고 누설량이 급격히 늘어남을 확인하였다. 따라서 1차 위험속도(1st Critical Speed) 이하에서 충분한 분리여유(Seperation Margine)를 가지고 정상운전되도록 설계된 터빈펌프라 할지라도 장기적 사용시 마모가 진전됨에 따라 계의 1차 위험속도가 변하여 운전속도에 접근할 수 있으며, 아울러 이 때 씨일의 감쇠가 크게 줄어들어 급격한 진동의 증가를 가져올 수 있음을 보였다.

열차가 고속으로 터널에 진입하게 되면 터널 내부에서 극심한 압력 교란이 발생하게 되며 이로 인한 이명현상은 승객들에게 불쾌감을 크게 유발시키고, 열차 구조물에 작용하는 반복적인 하중변화 또한 구조상 큰 문제를 일으킬 수 있게 된다. 따라서 이를 해결하기 위해서는 터널 내부의 유동장에 대한 정확한 예측이 필요하다. 본 논문은 긴 터널을 효율적으로 해석하기 위해서 최소 차원의 공간 가정을 통하여 계산 시간을 절약할 수 있는 혼합차원 기법을 이용하여 현재 G7 시제차의 시험 운행 구간내의 터널들에 대해서 수치해석을 수행하였다. 해석 결과 터널 내부에서는 압축파, 팽창파의 상호 작용에 의한 복잡한 압력 교란이 발생하였고, 이러한 압력 변화는 열차 속도, 터널 길이, 측정위치에 따라 각각 다르게 나타났다. 따라서 터널 내부의 유동장을 정확히 예측하려면 열차 속도, 터널 길이, 열차 길이, 열차/터널 단면적 비, 측정 위치 등을 고려하여 해석을 수행하여야 한다. 이러한 수치 해석 결과는 시제차 시험 계획의 수립 및 시험기기의 선택과 설치 위치 등을 결정하는 중요한 자료로 활용될 수 있을 것이며, 고속 열차의 여압 시스템과 외부 부착 구조물에 대해서도 중요한 정보를 제공할 수 있을 것이다.
