There exists a limitation to provide proper advance information for safe maneuvering through guidance and caution signs in freeway mobile work zones, unlike fixed work zones. Although a work-protection vehicle is currently deployed at the rear of the work vehicle, more active countermeasures to prevent crashes are required. The purpose of this study was to propose a method to evaluate the safety in mobile work zones and to present effective countermeasures. Driving simulation experiments were conducted to analyze characteristics of driver's behavior in mobile and fixed work zones. Safety distance index (SDI) based on the comparison of stopping distances of a work-protection vehicle and a following subject vehicle was used to evaluate traffic safety. More dangerous driving behavior was observed in the mobile work zone. Especially, it was identified that the lane-change of vehicles following the work- protection vehicle was late. Therefore, it is necessary to actively introduce methods to provide warning information so that the driver can recognize the work-protection vehicle in advance and carry out appropriate evasive maneuvers.

This study is a quasi experimental study to investigate the effects of stroke prevention education program of Oriental Nursing on self-health perception, health behavior change, self-care and physiological index of adults over 55 years old and elderly people. The data were collected from August 12 to November 29, 2017. The 53 study subjects comprised 26 experimental subjects who agreed to participate in the education program and 27 control subjects. In the results, there was no statistically significant difference between the experimental group and the control group in general characteristics and research variables before the program; further, the two groups were homogenous. In the hypothesis test, the change in self-health perceptions of the experimental and control groups was t = -5.28 (p <.001), health behavior change was t = -4.24 (p <.001), self-care was t = -5.28 (p <.05), systolic blood pressure was t = 2.48 (p <.05), diastolic blood pressure was t = 2.78 (p <.05), and cholesterol was t = -3.94 (p <.001). There were statistically significant differences between the two groups and all four hypotheses were supported, which demonstrated the effectiveness of the program. These study results suggest that it is an effective program to change the self-perception of health and health behavior, improve self-care ability, and control the physiological index. It is expected that these findings will be useful in developing a future effective oriental nursing intervention. The education program should be continuously carried out, and the area needs to be expanded.

국내에서는 철도차량의 화재안전성능을 향상시키기 위해 성능평가를 적용하기 위한 연구가 진행되고 있다. 철도차량에서의 화재 시 피난은 여러 가지 시나리오들이 존재하며, 이중 하나가 터널내부에서 정전이 되어 무조명상태가 되는 것이다. 철도차량은 물리적 공간적 환경이 건축물과 차이가 있다. 또한 문화적 인종적 차이로 인해 외국의 데이터를 바로 적용하는 것도 바람직한 일은 아니다. 그러므로 시나리오를 분석하기 위해 필요한 데이터는 실험을 통해 확보해야할 필요성이 있는 것이다. 무조명 상태에서의 피난인의 행태와 이동속도의 차이 등을 분석하기 위해 실험을 수행하고 그 결과를 분석해 보았다.

전산기술의 발달에 힘입어 근래에 모의실험을 이용한 연속교통류의 미시적 분석이 활발히 수행되고 있고 다양한 모의실험 전산모형이 소개되고 있다. 미시적 연속교통류 전산모의실험은 차량추종모형과 차로변경모형을 적용하여 다양한 운전자들의 차량운행행태를 모사하여 분석하는 실험이다. 전산모형은 난수를 토대로 차량의 자유속도와 초기 발생 차로를 배정하기 때문에 낮은 자유속도를 할당받은 차량이 높은 속도의 차로(예:1차로)로 발생되는 경우가 발생한다. 많은 모의실험모형이 사용하고 있는 차로변경의 가정이 "운전자는 자신이 원하는 속도(자유속도)를 유지한다"는 것이며 그러한 가정만의 적용으로 인해 현실적이지 않은 차로 이용률이 결과되고, 따라서 전산모형을 통한 교통류 흐름분석에 문제를 제공하고 있다. 본 논문에서는 미국 도로국에서 20여년 동안 개발되고 수정되어왔으며 현재 실용적으로 가장 많이 사용되고 있는 Freeway Simulation(FRESIM) 전산모형이 내재한 차로변경모형을 토대로 고속도로 기본구간에서의 선택적 차로변경모형을 제시한다. 제시된 모형에서는 (1)저속의 선행차량이 고속의 후행차량에게 차로를 양보하는 가정이 새롭게 추가되고 (2)FRESIM모형에서 사용하는 상수값을 국내 현장조사를 통하여 도출된 분포식을 통한 값으로 대체하였다. 수집된 자료분석결과 연속 교통류에서의 15% 차두시간은 1.34초이며 차로변경시간은 평균 2.22초인 F분포를 따르고, 자유속도는 정규분포를 따르는 것으로 결과되었다. 모의실험결과 무작위난수를 토대로 배정된 차로로 생성된 차량들이 새롭게 제시된 차로변경모형의 적용으로 현장 차로이용률을 95% 신뢰수준에서 모사하는 것으로 분석되었다.

This study focused on the architectural, interior and management guidelines in rehabilitation center for visually impaired persons. For these purposes, we reviewed the movement behaviors and the characteristics of fire drill in rehabilitation center for visually impaired persons. The results are as follows. : First, the liner circulation paths and interior landmarks are recommended, and dwelling units and program rooms should be located in ground floor for barrier free evacuation. Second, It is important to establish continuous handrail, variations of paving patterns and materials, good color definition, tactile informations and directional sound. Third, it is necessary to serve more specified architectural, interior, and management guidelines according to impaired prototypes.

This paper presents inference methods for inner operations of a multi-server queue when historical data are limited or system observation is restricted. In a queueing system analysis, autocorrelated arrival and service processes increase the complexity of modeling. Accordingly, numerous analysis methods have been developed. In this paper, we introduce an inference method for specific situations when external observations exhibit autocorrelated structure and and observations of internal operations are difficult. We release an assumption of the previous method and provide lemma and theorem to guarantee the correctness of our proposed inference method. Using only external observations, our proposed method deduces the internal operation of a multi-server queue via non-parametric approach even when the service times are autocorrelated. The main internal inference measures are waiting times and service times of respective customers. We provide some numerical results to verify that our method performs as intended.

In order to make autonomous vehicles more trustworthy, it is necessary to focus on the users of autonomous vehicles. By evaluating the preferences for driving behaviors of autonomous vehicles, we aim to identify driving behaviors that increase the acceptance of users in autonomous vehicles. We implemented two driving behaviors, aggressive and cautious, in a driving simulator and allowed users to experience them. Biometric data was collected during the ride, and pre- and post-riding surveys were conducted. Subjects were categorized into two groups based on their driving habits and analyzed against the collected biometric data. Both aggressive and cautious driving subjects preferred the cautious driving behavior of autonomous vehicles.

Spatial data is collected on a regular Cartesian lattice. In this paper we consider the model indentification of spatial autoregressive(SAR) models using AIC, BIC, pattern method. The proposed methods are considered as an application of AIC, BIC, 3-patterns for SAR models through three directions; row, column and diagonal directions. Using the Monte Carlo simulation, we test the efficiency of the proposed methods for various SAR models.

Internet shopping mall is growing the new paradigm of a next generation commerce. And, the primary goal of a shopping mall web site is to facilitate economic action. Therefore. it is important in designing the shopping mall to support consumer's behaviors characteristics of a traditional commerce, This paper analyzed and evaluated two shopping mall with regard to consumer's behaviors characteristics. It is used the method of a user's performance and a subjective evaluation. It was shown that the user prefered the shopping mall web site to analogy with the traditional commerce pattern. Also, the database of an anatomic data and the development of a 3D virtual environment are suggested.
