This study deals with the traffic accident of truck at circular intersection. The purpose of this study is to develop the truck accident models based on type of accident and conflict. In pursuing the above, the study gives particular attentions to selecting the appropriate models among Poisson and Negative binomial models using statistical program LIMDEP 8.0. The traffic accident data from 2007 to 2014 are collected from TAAS data set of Road Traffic Authority. Such the dependent variable as number of truck accidents and the 24 independent variables as geometry, traffic volume and others are used. The main results are as follows. First, 5 Poisson models (${\rho}^2$ of 0.164~0.351) which are all statistically significant are selected. Second, the common variable based on type of accident and conflict is analyzed to be truck apron width. The specific variables are, however, evaluated to splitter island, area of splitter island, speed limit sign, truck apron, number approach road, circular intersection sign, speed hump and traffic volume. Finally, widening the truck apron width and improving the above specific variables are analyzed to be important for truck accident reduction at circular intersections.

With the increase of the frequency in large-scale floods and natural disasters, the demands for highly accurate numerical river models are also rapidly growing. Generally, flows in rivers are modeled with previously developed and well-established numerical models based on shallow water equations. However, the so-far-developed models reveal a lot of limitations in the analysis of discontinuous flow or flow which needs accurate modeling. In this study, the numerical shallow water model based on the discontinuous Galerkin method was applied to the simulation of one-dimensional transcritical flow, including dam break flows and a flow over a hump. The favorable agreement was observed between numerical solutions and analytical solutions.

DUP (direct underside pressurization) is a device that can considerably increase lift, reduce take-off speed and minimize hump drag when a WIG effect vehicle takes off on the water surface. A 3-dimensional numerical investigation of a WIG effect vehicle with DUP is performed to analyze aerodynamic characteristics and the static height stability. The model vehicle, named Aircat, consists of a propeller in the middle of a fuselage, an air chamber under the fuselage, Lippisch-type wings and a large horizontal T-tail. The lift is mainly increased by the stagnation of the accelerated air coming into the air chamber through the channel in the middle of the fuselage. However, the accelerated air increases drag as well as reduces static height stability.

A procedure to standardize camel carcass fabrication is proposed. This includes a definitive method of jointing the carcass into wholesale neck, shoulder, brisket, rib, plate, loin, flank, rump and leg cuts. Carcass cutout data were collected from the right sides of 21 Najdi male camels averaging 8, 16 and 26 months of age in order to determine the influence of age on the weight of each wholesale cut. The weight of body, empty body, hot carcass, cold carcass, hump fat, kidney, pelvic and heart fat (KPH) and each wholesale cut increased (p < .01) with age. Except for percent shrinkage and wholesale rump weight, all studied traits increased (p < .01) linearly as the age increased. This change was most pronounced in wholesale flank and plate cuts, increasing by 4.2 and 3.4 times, respectively, while the rump and shoulder cuts changed the least, increasing by 1.8 and 1.9 times, respectively. Allometric growth coefficients indicated that as the camel grew, the weight of rib, brisket, plate and flank cuts increased relatively more rapidly than did cold carcass or empty body weight and that the weight of wholesale shoulder, neck, leg and rump increased less rapidly than did cold carcass or empty body weight.

Zinc oxide(ZnO) films were prepared by ultrasonic spray pyrolysis on indium (In) films deposited by evaporation and subsequently submitted to rapid thermal annealing (RTA). The RTA was processed in air or a vacuum ambient. The crystallographic properties and surface morphologies of the films were characterized before and after the RTA by X-ray diffraction (XRD) and scanning electron microscopy(SEM), respectively. The resistivity variation of the films with RTA temperature and time was measured by the 4-point probe method. Auger electron spectroscopy(AES) was carried out to figure out the distribution of indium atoms in the ZnO films. The resistivity of the ZnO on In(ZnO/In) films decreased to 2${\times}$10$\^$-3/ $\Omega$cm by diffusion of the In. The In diffusion into the ZnO films roughened the surface of the ZnO films. The results of depth profile by AES showed a hump of In atoms around ZnO/In interface after the RTA at 800$^{\circ}C$, which disappeared by the RTA at 1000$^{\circ}C$. The effects of temperature, time and ambient during the RTA on the structural and electrical properties of the ZnO/In films were discussed.

The resistivity of the ZnO/In films decreased to 2$\times$10$\^$-3/ Ωcm by diffusion of the In. The In diffusion into the ZnO films roughened the surface of ZnO films. The results of depth profile by AES showed a hump of In atoms around ZnO/In interface after the RTA at 800 $\^{C}$. The effects of temperature time and ambient during the RTA on the structural and electrical properties of the ZnO/In films were discussed.

This paper analyses an impact of wage scheme and transparency of performance evaluation on the productivity. The main findings in this paper are as follows: First, the effect of wage scheme based on seniority system on the productivity is worse off than the performance pay. Second, there is a positive relationship between an incentive and the productivity, but, in the case of firms which individually informs the results of performance evaluation to their workers, it shows the hump-shaped relationship. Third, though the wage scheme is based on the performance, if the evaluation system is not transparent, the impact of incentive on the productivity is disappeared. Consequently, this paper implies that the appropriate incentive and the transparent performance evaluation system are required so as to improve the productivity.

Electrical gate and drain characteristics of double heterostructure InAlAs/InGaAs pseudomorphic HEMTs have been investigated under sub-bandgap photonic excitation ($hv). Drain $(V_{DS})-,{\;}gate($V_{DS})-$, and optical power($P_{opt}$)-dependent variation of the abnormal gate leakage current and associated physical mechanisms in the PHEMTs have been characterized. Peak gate voltage ($V_{GS,P}$) and the onset voltage for the impact ionization ($V_{GS.II}$) have been extracted and empirical model for their dependence on the $V_{DS}$ and $P_{opt} have been proposed. Anomalous gate and drain current, both under dark and under sub-bandgap photonic excitation, have been modeled as a parallel connection of high performance PHEMT with a poor satellite FET as a parasitic channel. Sub-bandgap photonic characterization, as a function of the optical power with $h\nu=0.799eV$, has been comparatively combined with those under dark condition for characterizing the bell-shaped negative humps in the gate current and subthreshold drain leakage under a large drain bias.

We propose an improvement method for a $\underline{G}ate$ $\underline{OX}ide(GOX)$ thinning at the edge of $\underline{S}hallow$ $\underline{T}rench$ $\underline{I}solation(STI)$, when STI is adopted to Dual Gate Oxide(DGOX) Process. In the case of SOC(System On-a-Chip), the DGOX process is usually used for realizing both a low and a high voltage parts in one chip. However, it is found that the severe GOX thinning occurs from at STI top edge region and a dent profile exists at the top edge of STI, when conventional DGOX and STI process carried out in high density device chip. In order to overcome this problem, a new DGOX process is tried in this study. And we are able to prevent the GOX thinning by H2 anneal, partially SiN liner skip, and a method which is merged a thick sidewall oxide(S/O) with a SiN pull-back process. Therefore, a good subthreshold characteristics without a double hump is obtained by the prevention of a GOX thinning and a deep dent profile.
