  • Styrene-butadiene rubber(SBR) is a copolymer of styrene and butadiene. It is composed of 1,2-unit, 1,4-unit, and styrene, and its properties are dependent on its microstructure. In general, rubber composites contain a single rubber or a blended rubber. Similarly, SBR is used by mixing with natural rubber(NR) and butadiene rubber(BR). The composition of a rubber article affects its physical and chemical properties. Herein, an analytical method for determining the microstructure of SBR using via pyrolysis is introduced. Pyrolysis-gas chromatography/mass spectrometry is widely used to analyze the microstructure of polymeric materials. The microstructure of SBR can be determined by analyzing the principal pyrolysis products formed from SBR, such as 4-vinylcyclohexene, styrene, 2-phenylpropene, 3-phenylcyclopentene, and 4-phenylcyclohexene. An analytical method for determining the composition of SBR/NR, SBR/BR, and SBR/NR/BR blends via pyrolysis is introduced. The composition of blended rubber can be determined by analyzing the principal pyrolysis products formed from each rubber component.

  • Mega-shock means a sporadic event such as the earning shock, which occurred by sudden market changes, and it can cause serious problems of profit loss of international construction projects. Therefore, the early response and prevention by analyzing and predicting the Mega-shock is critical for successful project delivery. This research is preliminary study to develop a prediction model that supports market condition analysis and Mega-shock forecasting. To avoid disadvantages of classic statistical approaches that assume the market factors are linear and independent and thus have limitations to explain complex interrelationship among a range of international market factors, the research team explored the Fractal Theory that can explain self-similarity and recursiveness of construction market changes. The research first found out correlation of the major market factors by statistically analyzing time-series data. The research then conducted a base of the Fractal analysis to distinguish features of fractal from data. The outcome will have potential to contribute to building up a foundation of the early shock warning system for the strategic international project management.

  • Efficient management of the construction heavy equipment is required to reduce the rate of carbon emissions and on-site accidents. The intelligent excavation system (IES) will improve the construction quality and productivity through information technologies and efficient equipment operation, especially in large earthwork projects. Three-dimensional digitized ground data should be required for identifying the path of heavy equipment and work-site environment. Rapid development of terrain laser scanners (TLS) is more readily to acquire the digital data. This study suggests the '3D ground terrain processing platform (3DGTPP)' including data manipulating module and analyzing module of the scanned data for intelligent earthmoving equipment operation. The processing platform consists of six modules, including scanning, registering, manipulating, analyzing, transmitting, and storing. 3D ground terrain processing platform presented in this study will provide fundamental information for intelligent excavation system (IES), which will increase the efficiency of earthworks and safety of workers in significant.

  • A contact accident with gantry cranes involving the container ship MV Milano Bridge in Busan New Port took place on 6 April 2020. The report concluded that the pilot unreasonably piloted the ship with impaired maneuverability and without a proper pilotage plan. Analyzing the entire system by CAST model gives a holistic approach in linking all the key components and their roles as well as violations that led to the accident, stepping away from placing the blame on only one component in the system. Furthermore, analyzing the accident as an system theory gives a clear overview of the relationships between system components and how these interactions led to the accident.

  • This paper presents a flexible finite-difference technique for analyzing the nonuniform guiding structures. Because the voltage and current variations along the nonuniform structure differ for each segment, this work considers the adaptable discretization steps. This technique increases the accuracy of the final response. Moreover, by applying the singular value decomposition and discarding the nonprincipal singular values, an optimal lower rank approximation of the discretization matrix is obtained. The computational cost of the introduced method is significantly reduced using the optimal discretization matrix. Also, the proposed method can be extended to the nonuniform waveguides. The technique is verified by analyzing several practical transmission lines and waveguides with nonuniform profiles.

  • Facilitating critical thinking is important for students' cognitive growth and knowledge acquisition. This study examines the dimensions of tutors' roles in facilitating the critical thinking required for problem solving in online discussions. The research procedures include identifying the research problems related to critical thinking skills; synthesizing theories and perspectives on critical thinking skills; and analyzing, validating, and determining tutors' roles. Using the results of this study, problem solving processes are divided into four phases: analyzing, judging, inferencing, and meta-cognitively evaluating. Tutors' roles in online problem solving can be categorized into four domains: cognitive, social, managerial, and technical. Tutors' roles in each domain are specifically analyzed, and the strengths, weaknesses, and improvements in tutors' facilitation of critical thinking for online problem solving are evaluated.

  • This study investigated the outpatient departments of Infectious Disease Hospitals by Region, which play an important role in establishing regional medical networking, to find a spatial structure that can provide a safe environment for efficient diagnosis and treatment, as well as a rational medical procedure in case of crisis. Department layout and adjacencies were derived by considering the access procedures according to patient classification, medical procedures by department, and connectivity with other departments. Based on the results derived by setting up zones according to infection control, activities, and objects, and analyzing the division of zones, the composition of areas by activities, movement flows by objects and treatment units, it can be used as basic data for the architectural plan of the Infectious Disease Hospital. Also, there are implications that can be used as basic data for planning related facilities by analyzing spatial relationships according to user behavior.

  • 기업 경영에 있어서 고객의 소리(VOC)는 고객 만족도 향상 및 기업의사결정에 매우 중요한 정보이다. 이는 비단 기업뿐만 아니라 대고객, 대민원 업무를 처리하는 모든 조직에 있어서도 동일하다. 때문에 최근에는 기업뿐만 아니라 공공, 의료, 금융, 교육기관 등 거의 모든 조직이 VOC를 수집하여 활용하고 있다. 이러한 VOC는 방문, 전화, 우편, 인터넷게시판, SNS 등 다양한 채널을 통해 전달되지만, 막상 이를 제대로 활용하기는 쉽지 않다. 왜냐하면, 고객이 매우 감정적인 상태에서 고객의 주관적 의사를 음성 또는 문자로 표출하기 때문에 그 형식이나 내용이 정형화되어 있지 않고 저장하기도 어려우며 또한 저장하더라도 매우 방대한 분량의 비정형 데이터로 남기 때문이다. 본 연구는 이러한 비정형 VOC 데이터를 자동으로 분류하고 VOC의 유형과 극성을 판별할 수 있는 오피니언 마이닝 기반의 지능형 VOC 분석 시스템을 제안하였다. 또한 VOC 오피니언 분석의 기준이 되는 주제지향 감성사전 개발 프로세스와 각 단계를 구체적으로 제시하였다. 그리고 본 연구에서 제시한 시스템의 효용성을 검증하기 위하여 의료기관 홈페이지에서 수집한 4,300여건의 VOC 데이터를 이용하여 병원에 특화된 감성어휘와 감성극성값을 도출하여 감성사전을 구축하고 이를 통해 구현된 VOC분류 모형의 정확도를 비교하는 실험을 수행하였다. 그 결과 "칭찬, 친절함, 감사, 무사히, 잘해, 감동, 미소" 등의 어휘는 매우 높은 긍정 오피니언 값을 가지며, "퉁명, 뭡니까, 말하더군요, 무시하는" 등의 어휘들은 강한 부정의 극성값을 가지고 있음을 확인하였다. 또한 VOC의 오피니언 분류 임계값이 -0.50일 때 가장 높은 분류 예측정확도 77.8%를 검증함으로써 오피니언 마이닝 기반의 지능형 VOC 분석시스템의 유효성을 확인하였다. 그러므로 지능형 VOC 분석시스템을 통해 VOC의 실시간 자동 분류 및 대응 우선순위를 도출하여 고객 민원에 대해 신속히 대응한다면, VOC 전담 인력을 효율적으로 운용하면서도 고객 불만을 초기에 해소할 수 있는 긍정적 효과를 기대해 볼 수 있을 것이다. 또한 VOC 텍스트를 분석하고 활용할 수 있는 오피니언 마이닝 모형이라는 새로운 시도를 통해 향후 다양한 분석과 실용 프레임워크의 기틀을 제공할 수 있을 것으로 기대된다.
