This paper presents an analytic study for replacement of the ballast track in existing subway bridge by the Precast slab panel(B2S) track. To evaluate the dynamic responses on application of B2S track, the time history analysis with the 3D modeling. A total of two models, which were one ballast track bridge and B2S track bridge, were used in the FE analysis. The results of this study show that the dynamic displacement and acceleration of the B2S track bridge were significantly reduced for a higher train speed, compared to the ballast track bridge. Also, the replacement of the ballast track bridge in existing subway bridge by the B2S track increased the structural safety of bridge and ensured sufficient dynamic stability and serviceability. As a result, the servicing subway bridge with B2S track system has need of the reasonable measures which could be reducing the static and dynamic response and improving the performance.

B2S(Ballasted track To Slab track) that is track system has been first developed in 2004 with foundation of rich experience and know-how of subway track upkeep and mending of facilities in 36 years to improve an existence pebble track at a concrete track. 'B2S' is admitted technology through patent registration in the domestic and Europe and it's made by a factory and put together at field, so it's able to construct precisely and to reduce a construction period. In addition, safety, the ecological balance and durability are excellent, and walking, cleaning, etc. has the advantage of easy maintenance. 'B2S' is currently laying 27.7km at Seoulmetro as of end of 2010 standard, but it'll be expected to be applied to a domestic Metro more from now on. It is possible to classify the total cost resolution structure of B2S system by R&D cost, test production and experiment cost, the initial facility cost, maintenance cost, disposal cost. In this research, it seems useful for selection evaluation which considered the life cycle cost or economics of the concrete track structure by analyzing an initial cost of facilities.

This study was conducted to investigate experimentally the effect of track tension on the tractive performance of rice combine. The experiment was carried out at the two in-door soil bins with soil types of loam and sandy loam. The initial track tension was varied by three different values of 0.71, 1.75 and 3.84kN at three different forward velocity settings of 0.17, 0.32 and 0.45m/s, respectively. The data acquisition system was designed and used for the measurement of pull, driving axle torque and its velocity under the test conditions to calculate the tractive efficiency. Results of the study were summarized as follows : 1) The effect of the initial track tension on the tractive efficiency was found being significantly dependent on soil types but not on forward velocities. Therefore, the benifit of adjusting the initial track tension may be obtained when the types of soils on which combines operate are changed. 2) In loam, tractive efficiency decreased with increase in track tension. However, it increased in sandy loam until it reached to a peak value and then decreased with increase in track tension. 3) The maximum tractive efficiency of the tested combine was obtained with an initial track tension of about 1.75kN on sandy loam, and below that on loam at about 5% slippage without being noticeably influenced by the forward velocity.

Among EC areas. the B2B EC market is being spotlighted as an important interesting research area considering its size and the potential impact on companeies and the whole society. In comparison with private consumers in B2C EC. business buyers in B2B EC have to precisely keep track of the purchase records. and integrate them with the buyer's e-procurement system, which might have been implemented as a part of integrated ERP (Enterprise Resource Planning) systems. There are three approaches for such integration between ERP and e-marketplace in B2B EC; Two previous approaches are Inside-Out approach and Outside-In approach. And a newly, one is b-cart approach. In this paper, we try to survey these three approaches and make a comparison analysis. From this research. we identify that the b-cart approach is the most efficient framework in integrating ERP with e-marketplace in B2B EC.

The Chevron saga including Chevron/TexPet v. Ecuador, PCA Case No. 34877(hereinafter referred to as "Chevron I") and Chevron/TexPet v. Ecuador, PCA Case No. 2009-23(hereinafter referred to as "Chevron II") started out of domestic litigations between TexPet and Ecuador in the early 1990s. In Chevron I, the Tribunal decided that Article 2(7) of the U.S.-Ecuador BIT on effective means of provision was breached because of undue delays in the seven legal proceedings TexPet had brought against Ecuador in respect to contractual obligations. In Chevron II, it was contended that through the actions and inactions of the judiciary and the executive, Ecuador breached her several obligations under the BIT. Ecuador objected to the jurisdiction of the Tribunal because TexPet's investment was terminated in 1992, and because Chevron is not a party to the 1995 Settlement Agreement and 1998 Final Release. In its Interim Award on Jurisdiction and Admissibility, the Tribunal applied a prima facie standard to the facts alleged by the Claimants but denied by the Respondent, and decided that questions in respect of the Respondent's jurisdictional objections should be joined to the merits under Article 21(4) of the UNCITRAL Arbitration Rules. In the merits phase of Chevron II, the Tribunal divided the merits of the Parties' dispute into two parts, entitled "Track 1" and "Track 2". In its Partial Award on Track 1, the Tribunal decided that Chevron is a "Releasee" under the 1995 Settlement Agreement. In a decision on "Track 1B", the Tribunal decided that the Lago Agrio complaint cannot be read as pleading "exclusively" or "only" diffuse claims, and that, to this extent, the Claimants' reliance on the 1995 Settlement Agreement as a complete bar to the Lago Agrio complaint must fail, as a matter of Ecuadorian law. The Tribunal maintained the position that the Parties' disputes on both merit and jurisdiction should be reserved for Track 2. It remains to be seen how the Tribunal addresses the Claimants' allegations of multiple denials of justice under international law against the judgments of the Respondent's Courts, together with the Respondent's jurisdictional objections in Track 2 of the arbitration.

A 1V 1.6-GS/s 6-bit flash analog-to-digital converter (ADC) with a clock calibration circuit is proposed. A single track/hold circuit with a bootstrapped analog switch is used as an input stage with a supply voltage of 1V for the high speed operation. Two preamplifier-arrays and each comparator composed of two-stage are implemented for the reduction of analog noises and high speed operation. The clock calibration circuit in the proposed flash ADC improves the dynamic performance of the entire flash ADC by optimizing the duty cycle and phase of the clock. It adjusts the reset and evaluation time of the clock for the comparator by controlling the duty cycle of the clock. The proposed 1.6-GS/s 6-bit flash ADC is fabricated in a 1V 90nm 1-poly 9-metal CMOS process. The measured SNDR is 32.8 dB for a 800 MHz analog input signal. The measured DNL and INL are +0.38/-0.37 LSB, +0.64/-0.64 LSB, respectively. The power consumption and chip area are $800{\times}500{\mu}m2$ and 193.02mW.

When the Eulerian-Lagrangian method is used to analyze the particle laden two-phase flow, a large number of particles should be used to obtain statistically meaningful solutions. Then it takes too much time to track the particles and to average the particle properties in the numerical analysis of two-phase flow. The purpose of this paper is to reduce the computation time by means of a set of particle gird separate to the flow grid. Particle motion equation here is the simplified B-B-O equation, which is integrated to get the particle trajectories. Particle turbulent dispersion, wall collision, and wall roughness effects are considered but the two-way coupling effects between gas and particles are neglected. Particle laden 2-D channel flow is solved and it is shown that the computational efficiency is indeed improved by using the current method

Trump's withdrawal from the Trans-Pacific Partnership (TPP) and his "America First" trade agenda ignite a second round of interest in mega-free trade agreements in the Asia-Pacific. Countries are evaluating alternative trade policy actions in a post-TPP era. Using national real GDP gains estimated by a modified GTAP model to construct "preference ordering" for 10 Association of Southeast Asian Nations members and their six regional dialogue partners, this paper comes up with several policy-oriented findings. First, when multilateral agreements are not possible, countries are better off with a regional trading agreement than without one. Second, the Regional Comprehensive Economic Partnership is likely to have higher beneficial impacts than the Comprehensive and Progressive Agreement for Trans-Pacific Partnership. Third, for dual-track countries, implementing both agreements is better than each separately. Fourth, impacts of open regionalism are likely to be higher than those of a closed and reciprocal one. Going forward, this paper argues that countries should adopt a "multi-track, multi-stage" approach to trade policy.
