PURPOSES : The purpose of this study is to identify the factors affecting the effectiveness of speed limit change that is defined as the amount of increased travel speed. METHODS : A ordered logit model was adopted to analyze the relationship between the change in travel speed and contributing factors. A stretch of Kyungbu freeway was selected for the analysis because the Korea expressway corporation has raised speed limit from 100km/h to 110km/h since September 1st in 2010. RESULTS : The results showed that geometric design elements, speeding cameras, and section length were identified as factors contributing the effectiveness. Contributing geometric design elements include the number of horizontal curves and vertical curves that do not meet the design requirement with 110km/h speed limit. CONCLUSIONS : The outcome of this study will be used for establishing various traffic operations and control strategies for freeway speed management.

Recently, digital images are extremely forged by editors or advertisers. Also, amateurs can modify images throughout easy editing programs. In this study, we propose identification and analytical methods for the modified images to figure out those problems. In modified image analysis, we classify two parts; a filtering change and a geometric change. Those changes have an algorithm based on interpolation so that we propose the algorithm which is able to analyze a trace on a modified area. With this algorithm, we implement a detection map of interpolation using minimum filter, laplacian algorithm, and maximum filter. We apply the proposed algorithm to modified image and are able to analyze its modified trace using the detection map.

When the round bar with step is twisted and bent, stress concentration is occurred in the irregular geometric parts. Two dimensional axisymmetric stress analysis is carried out according to the geometric change of the stress-concentrated part of round bar with step. Three dimensional cases are also investigated.

In this work, the changes in the friction force(lateral force) with respect to nanoscale geometric variation were investigated using an Atomic Force Microscope and a Lateral Force Microscope. It could be concluded that the changes in the friction force correspond well to the slope change rather than the surface slope itself, and that the influence of slope change on the frictional behavior is dependent on the magnitude of the slope and the torsional stiffness of the cantilever. Also, the nominal friction force is found to be more significantly affected by the material and the physical-chemical state of the surface rather than by nanoscale geometric steps. However, the change in nanoscale geometric details of the surface cause instantaneous change and slight variation in the friction signal.

A methodology has been proposed to understand the spatiotemporal changes of the river topography through the longitudinal change of the geometric characteristics of the cross-sections and the properties related thereto. Three-dimensional spatial information of the riverbed was obtained through the detailed bathymetry survey using an acoustic echo sounder for the reach from Gumi Weir to Chilgok Weir in the Nakdong river. Geometric informations for the reference sections were extracted using the acquired bathymetry survey data. By comparing the geometric properties for the reference sections, it was possible to catch the topographic characteristics and its changes over a reach of the channel. Through comparison with past survey data, it was also possible to quantitatively grasp the amount of change in cross-sectional area and volumetric change of riverbed. It is expected that a quantitative evaluation of river topography changes will be possible by applying the method proposed in this study.

This study was designed to gain insights into students' visualization process in geometric problem solving. The visualization model for analysing visual process for geometric problem solving was developed on the base of Duval's study. The subjects of this research are two Grade 9 students and six Grade 10 students. They were given 2D-geometric problems. Their written solutions were analyzed problem is research depicted characteristics of process of visualization of individually. The findings on the students' geometric problem solving process are as follows: In geometric problem solving, visualization provided a significant insight by improving the students' figural apprehension. In particular, the discoursive apprehension and the operative apprehension contributed to recognize relation between the constituent of figures and grasp structure of figure.

The geometric parameters between wheel and rail change wheel/rail contact geometry characteristics, and this influence dynamic behavior of rolling stock. So, the selections of optimum geometric parameters between wheel and rail is important for planning of railway system. In this study, we have analyzed the influence of geometric parameters like wheel flange-back distance, gage, and rail inclination on the equivalent conicity relating to dynamic behavior. The analyses show the following results. The widening of wheel flange-back distanc, the decrement of gage increase the equivalent conicity and the increment of rail inclination show the sharp change of the equivalent conicity.

A real depth of cut in deformed zone has larger than an ideal depth of cut. So the heat generated during grinding operation makes the deformation of a workpiece surface as convex farm. Consequently the workpiece surface remains a geometric error as concave form after cooling In this study, the grinding force and the geometric error were examined in surface grinding. Through magnitude and mode of geometric error were evaluated according to grinding conditions, an optimal grinding condition was proposed to minimize the geometric error In addition, the relationship between the geometric error and the grinding force was examined. Due to least square regression, It was possible to predict the geometric error by using the grinding force.

In this paper, we deal with the problem of deciding the length of data for estimating the parameters in geometric Brownian motion. As an approach to this problem, we consider the change point test and introduce simple test statistic based on the cumulative sum of squares test (cusum test). A real data analysis is performed for illustration.

In this paper, the thermal post-buckling behavior of graphene platelets reinforced metal foams (GPLRMFs) plate with initial geometric imperfections on nonlinear elastic foundations are studied. First, the governing equation is derived based on the first-order shear deformation theory (FSDT) of plate. To obtain a single equation that only contains deflection, the Galerkin principle is employed to solve the governing equation. Subsequently, a comparative analysis was conducted with existing literature, thereby verifying the correctness and reliability of this paper. Finally, considering three GPLs distribution types (GPL-A, GPL-B, and GPL-C) of plates, the effects of initial geometric imperfections, foam distribution types, foam coefficients, GPLs weight fraction, temperature changes, and elastic foundation stiffness on the thermal post-buckling characteristics of the plates were investigated. The results show that the GPL-A distribution pattern exhibits the best buckling resistance. And with the foam coefficient (GPLs weight fraction, elastic foundation stiffness) increases, the deflection change of the plate under thermal load becomes smaller. On the contrary, when the initial geometric imperfection (temperature change) increases, the thermal buckling deflection increases. According to the current research situation, the results of this article can play an important role in the thermal stability analysis of GPLRMFs plates.
