This study was performed to analyze collection parameters for food wastes, which were used to estimate man power and vehicles required to collect those. For this purpose, collection activities were separated into unit operations, such as a pickup, a haul and at-site, and design data that can be used generally were developed by survey and interpretation. In case of a detached dwelling area, the pickup time to collect 1ton of food wastes(Phcs) was $3.3man{\cdot}hour$ and haul time was 22.4km/hour. At-site time of a collection vehicle to load 2.5ton of food wastes was 5minutes and that time was varied according to the loading quantity of vehicles. The estimation of collection time(Thcs), required to move 2.5ton of food wastes from a pickup location to a treatment facility in the same condition for vehicles and man power, showed that Thcs for an apartment area was 3.03hours and for a detached dwelling area was three times as much as that of for the apartment area. More data should be required to evaluate both typical variables associated with collection activities and the variables related to particular district types.

The decision-making by agents in games is commonly based on reinforcement learning. To improve the quality of agents, it is necessary to solve the problems of the time and state space that are required for learning. Such problems can be solved by Macro-Actions, which are defined and executed by a sequence of primitive actions. In this line of research, the learning time is reduced by cutting down the number of policy decisions by agents. Macro-Actions were originally defined as combinations of the same primitive actions. Based on studies that showed the generation of Macro-Actions by learning, Macro-Actions are now thought to consist of diverse kinds of primitive actions. However an enormous amount of learning time and state space are required to generate Macro-Actions. To resolve these issues, we can apply insights from studies on the learning of tasks through Programming by Demonstration (PbD) to generate Macro-Actions that reduce the learning time and state space. In this paper, we propose a method to define and execute Macro-Actions. Macro-Actions are learned from a human subject via PbD and a policy is learned by reinforcement learning. In an experiment, the proposed method was applied to a car simulation to verify the scalability of the proposed method. Data was collected from the driving control of a human subject, and then the Macro-Actions that are required for running a car were generated. Furthermore, the policy that is necessary for driving on a track was learned. The acquisition of Macro-Actions by PbD reduced the driving time by about 16% compared to the case in which Macro-Actions were directly defined by a human subject. In addition, the learning time was also reduced by a faster convergence of the optimum policies.

This study reviewed the use of soil injection materials using circulating resources as injection materials for the steel pipe multi-stage construction method. The tests performed were homogel time and homogel compressive strength. The steel pipe multi-stage construction method is an auxiliary construction method for tunnels, and the expression of initial strength after construction is an important factor. The better the strength development in the initial stage, the more it can be used as an injection material suitable for the multi-stage steel pipe construction method. As a result of laboratory test, it was found that the homogel time of the injection material using circulating resources required more time than the mixing ratio using cement as the injection material. In addition, it was found that the initial strength curing time satisfying 2MPa was required for more than 24 hours. Therefore, it was confirmed that the injection material using recycled resources required a longer initial curing time than cement of the same mixing ratio.

In order to synchronize a remote system time to the reference time like Coordinated Universal Time (UTC), it is required to compare the time difference between the two clocks. The time comparison data may have some outliers and the time synchronization performance can be significantly degraded if the outliers are not removed. Therefore, it is required to employ an effective outlier detection algorithm for keeping high accurate system time. In this paper, an outlier detection method is presented for the time difference data of GNSS time transfer receivers. The time difference data between the system time and the GNSS usually have slopes because the remote system clock is under free running until synchronized to the reference clock time. For investigating the outlier detection performance of the proposed algorithm, simulations are performed by using the time difference data of a GNSS time transfer receiver corrected to a free running Cesium clock with intentionally inserted outliers. From the simulation, it is investigated that the proposed algorithm can effectively detect the inserted outliers while conventional methods such as modified Z-score and adjusted boxplot cannot. Furthermore, it is also observed that the synchronization performance can be degraded to more than 15% with 20 outliers compared to that of original data without outliers.

An initial starting voltage, ignition time, glow current and blink of the flow starter are changed rapidly in initial using. therefore an ageing is required to stabilize the initial characteristics. According to the experiments, it is proved that the ageing time for the starting voltage and glow current takes 3 minutes and 5 minutes for ignition time and blink.

In order to analyze liquidity change according to increasing the charge of superplasticizer, we inputted charges by dividing into six steps, 0% through 1.25%; at the same time, to observe liquidity change according to the change of charge-time, we carried out the experiment applying 30-minute intervals, i.e. at beginning of mixing, 30, 60 and 90 minutes. The results are below. 1) According to increasing the charge of superplasticizer, the liquidity of concrete was enhanced, however, when inputted 1.25%, a little segregation was occurred, which allowed us to make a conclusion that concrete performance would be deteriorated due to this segregation. 2) When we inputted 1.25% of superplsticizer, steady liquidity features were shown regardless of the charge-time of concrete, which allowed us to make a conclusion that this input would be the best for liquidity performance considering only liquidity features. 3) After analyzing the dynamical features of liquid concrete, the result showed that there was not significant effect on revelation of compressive strength. We concluded form this result that there was no influence on the stripping-time of a mold form. 4) When we charge superplasticizer in concrete more than 1%, we, in advance, should clearly judge the concrete performance required during constructing in site, as it were, the compressive strength or liquidity etc.; furthermore, we had better decide a charge and input-time of superplasticizer to meet the required performance.

Building has required the repair money to improve or maintain the decent living condition continuously after construction. It needs to grasp the building deterioration to decide the scope and contents before it is repaired. Under various conditions such as physical, social and financial constraints, the repair plan would be prepared. Among constraints, the cost is indispensible to specify the repair time, repair scope and target. The required cost would be planned to preparation over the years. In this paper, it aimed at providing the repair strategy of the public rental housing in repair time, using the cumulative cost model which is $3^{rd}$ function. In the $3^{rd}$ function, the inflection point should exist in the line. And there are two types in the cumulative model, First, if the maximum cost be shown, the repair time would be provided. Second, if the maximum cost not be shown, the cumulative function should be proportionally increased and the repair strategy is properly provided with a short cycle. In results of this study, 11 items would provide the repair time. These cumulative function would be repaired about 4 years after constructed, and after about 4 years, the cumulative function would be continuously increased.

With the increases of average commuting time of office workers in the Seoul metropolitan area and the cost of traffic congestion on roads, the need for new transportation is increasing and urban air mobility (UAM) is emerging as an alternative. Therefore, in this paper, the vertiport locations were selected and routes were established using population, traffic and commuting data of Seoul and Gyeonggi Province. Vector thrust type and multicopter type of eVTOL compatible for UAM were selected by analyzing the types of eVTOLand time required for selected routes was calculated. In addition, the time required when we utilize other transportations was compared with UAM. Finally, it was verified that the commuting time can be sharply reduced when we use UAM.

Explicit numerical integration methods for power system transient stability simulation require very small time steps to avoid numerical instability. The EXST1 exciter model is a primary source of fast dynamics in power system transients. In case of the EXST1, the required small integration time step for entire system simulation increases the computational demands in terms of running time and storage. This paper presents a practical exciter model reduction approach which allows the increase of the required step size and thus the method can decrease the computational demands. The fast dynamics in the original EXST1 are eliminated in the reduced exciter model. The use of a larger time step improves the computational efficiency. This paper describes the way to eliminate the fast dynamics from the original exciter model based on linear system theory. In order to validate the performance of the proposed method, case studies with the GSO-37 bus system are provided. Comparisons between the original and reduced models are made in simulation accuracy and critical clearing time.
