Network-based model were developed to predict short term future traffic volume based on current traffic, historical average, and upstream traffic. It is presumed that upstream traffic volume can be used to predict the downstream traffic in a specific time period. Three models were developed for traffic flow prediction; a combination of historical average and upstream traffic, a combination of current traffic and upstream traffic, and a combination of all three variables. The three models were evaluated using regression analysis. The third model is found to provide the best prediction for the analyzed data. In order to balance the variables appropriately according to the present traffic condition, a heuristic adaptive weighting system is devised based on the relationships between the beginning period of prediction and the previous periods. The developed models were applied to 15-minute freeway data obtained by regular induction loop detectors. The prediction models were shown to be capable of producing reliable and accurate forecasts under congested traffic condition. The prediction systems perform better in the 15-minute range than in the ranges of 30-to 45-minute. It is also found that the combined models usually produce more consistent forecasts than the historical average.

보로노이 다면체 기법은 금속비정질재료에서의 20면체 Short-Range order와 같은 원자 구조를 분석하는 가장 유용한 도구 중에 하나이다. 기존의 보로노이 다면체 기법에서는 다면체의 평면은 다른 크기를 가진 원자간 거리의 중간에 위차하였다. 하지만, 이러한 방법은 필연적으로 분석 오차를 발생시킨다. 대안적인 방법으로서 근평면법이라고 불리우는 가중 보로노이법을 사용하면, 원자의 크기의 차이를 고려하여 해석할 수 있다. 본논문에서는 이러한 근평면법을 여러 가지의 성분비를 가진 비정질 재료에 적용하여 기존의 보로노이법과 비교 분석하였다. 결과적으로 보로노이 인덱스, 원자체적 분포, 보로노이 다면체 분포, 20면체의 공간 분포등등에서 기존의 보로노이법은 완전히 잘못된 결과를 보여줄 수도 있다는 것이 발견되었다.

A low noise and low power RF front-end for 5.8 GHz DSRC (Dedicated Short Range Communication) receiver is presented. The RF front-end is composed of a single-to-differential two-stage LNA and a Gilbert down-conversion mixer. In order to remove an external balun and 5.8 GHz LC load tuning circuit, a single-to-differential LNA with capacitive cross coupled pair is proposed. The RF front-end is fabricated in a 0.13 ${\mu}m$ CMOS process and draws 7.3 mA from a 1.2 V supply voltage. It shows a voltage gain of 40 dB and a noise figure (NF) lower than 4.5 dB over the entire DSRC band.

The transformation sequence of kaolinite to mullite is examined with new electron diffraction data obtained mainly by an energy filtering transmission electron microscope. Kaolinite is transformed finally into mullite and cristobalite through several steps of continuous reactions by heating, which result in metakaolinite, microcrystalline spinel-type phase and amorphous silica. Metakaolinite maintains a short-range order in its structure ven at $920^{\circ}C$. Spinel phase results from a topotactictransformation of metakaolinite apart from the breakdown of metakaolinite structure. the first strong exothermic peak on DTA curve is mainly due to the extraction of amorphous silica from metakaolinite and the gradual nucleation of mullite. Metakaolinite decomposes around$ 940^{\circ}C$ to mullite that doesn't show a clear crystallographic relationship to the parent metakaolinite structure. However, spinel phase produced previously is maintained. The initially formed spinel and mullite phases are suggested to be Al-rich, but progressively gain Si in their structures at higher temperatures. Spinel phase decomposes completely through a second weak exothermic reaction promoting the growth of mullite, and crystallization of amorphous silica to cristobalite.

The structural studies of amorphous isotropic carbon prepared from pyrolysis of phenol formaldehyde resin have been carried out using X-ray diffraction. X-ray diffraction from as prepared sample at $1000^{\circ}C$ and a sample treated at $1900^{\circ}C$ revealed that both are amorphous even though there are small differences in short range order. It is found that both are graphite like carbon (GLC) with predominantly $sp^2$ hybridization. Small angle X-ray scattering results show that as prepared sample mainly consists of thin two dimensional platelets of graphitic carbon whereas they grow in thickness to become three dimensional materials of nano dimensions.

In this study, seismic response mitigation effect of an MR damper generating response-dependent frictional force is investigated. It has been reported in previous studies that passively operated MR damper with constant input current doesn't show better control performance than semi-active MR damper with varying input current calculated by control algorithms such as linear quadratic regulator and sliding mode control. However, in order to operate the MR damper semi-actively, other control systems besides the damper itself such as sensors for measuring structural responses and controller for calculating optimal input current are necessary, which deteriorate the economical efficiency. This study presents a MR damper generating frictional force of which magnitude is controlled in accordance to the displacement and velocity transferred to the damper. Numerical analyses results indicate that the performance of the response dependent MR damper is closely related with the range of the friction force and it can be designed to short better control performance than the passive MR damper.

Generalized Multichannel Quantum Defect theory (MQDT) was implemented to the vibrational predissociation of triatomic van der Waals molecules in the previous paper [Bull. Korean Chem. Soc, 12, 228 (1991)]. Implementation was limited to the calculation of the scattering matrix. It is now extended to the calculation of the predissociation spectra and the final rotational distribution of the photofragment. The comparison of the results with those obtained by other methods, such as Golden-rule type calculation, infinite order sudden approximation (IOS), and close-coupling method, shows that the implementation is successful despite the fact that transition dipole moments show more energy dependence than other quantum defect parameters. Examination of the short-range channel basis functions shows that they resemble angle-like functions and provide the validity of the IOS approximation. Besides the validity of the latter, only a few angles are found to play the major role in photodissociation. In addition to the implementation of MQDT, more progress in MQDT itself is made and reported here.

This study was carried out to identify the problems of the underground watersheds on Jeju Island, and to establish the hydraulic groundwater basin to be used as basis for the analysis of the groundwater model. In order to evaluate the adequacy of the groundwater basin on Jeju Island, a correlation analysis between elevation and groundwater level was conducted using data from 125 observation wells. The analysis, conducted with an elevation step of 100 m, exhibited values of R2 in the range 0.1653-0.8011. No clear correlation was observed between elevation and groundwater level. In particular, the eastern and western areas showed an inverse proportionality between elevation and groundwater level. The Kriging technique was used to analyze the underground water level data and to define the equipotential lines for all areas of Jeju Island. Eight groundwater watersheds were delineated by considering the direction of groundwater flow, the positions of the observation wells, and the long and short axes of the watersheds.

Amorphous alloys, in addition to being promising materials for a variety of practical applications, provide an excellent test bed for evaluating our understanding of the underlying physics on deformation in amorphous solids. Like many amorphous materials, amorphous alloys can exhibit either homogeneous or inhomogeneous deformation depending on the stress level. The mode of deformation has a strong influence on whether the material behavior is classified as ductile or brittle. It was observed that the characteristics of these deformations are largely dependent on the atomic-scale structures of the alloys and determine the amount of the plastic deformation prior to failure. In this study, the structural features that control the homogeneous deformation of amorphous alloys are outlined on the basis on experiments and molecular dynamics simulations.
