This study aims to propose an assessment tool of port service quality (PSQ) in the context of container transport logistics (CTLs), by taking the perspectives from port users. The CTLs defined in this study are the relevant activities of serving the physical flows of a container box from a point of origin via a container port to a point of destination. To address the ports' role in collaboration between its channel members in CTLs, the PSQ measures for all port user groups (i.e. common PSQ measures) are selected based on the relevant CTLs activities involved by port, and its users within terminal/port area as well as throughout the CTLs chain. An importance-performance analysis (IPA) is applied as a diagnostic tool to analyse the status quo of Busan Port in CTLs contexts, by comparing the importance and performance (IP ) scores against each individual CTLs criterion. The findings from the IPA reveal that port managers and policy makers at the Busan Port should concentrate on six PSQ measures (i.e. SR1, SR4, ITS1, VAS1, VAS4, ICI3) to enhance PSQ in CTLs. However, four measures (i.e. ITS2, ITS3, ITS4, VAS2) are identified as a possible overkill, indicating an area of inefficiency where a remedial action of the cost-cutting decision is necessary. On the other hand, the Busan port shows an outstanding performance on four measures such as SR2, SR3, ICI1 and ICI2. The measures are not only important but also high performance. The study findings provide managerial guidance to port managers in Busan Port, in view of searching for managerial and operational strategies for sustainable port growth.

The classical electron band theory is a powerful tool to describe the electronic structures of solids. However, the band theory and corresponding density functional theory become inappropriate if a system comprises localized electrons in a scenario wherein strong electron correlations cannot be neglected. $SrRuO_3$ is one such system, and the partially localized d-band electrons exhibit some interesting behaviors such as enhanced effective mass, spectral incoherency, and oppression of ferromagnetism and itinerancy. In particular, a Metal-Insulator transition occurs when the thickness of $SrRuO_3$ approaches approximately four unit cells. In the computational studies, irrespective of the inclusion of on-site Hubbard repulsion and Hund's coupling parameters, correctly depicting the correlation effects is difficult. Because the oxygen atoms and the symmetry of octahedra are known to play important roles in the system, scrutinizing both the electronic band structure and the lattice system of $SrRuO_3$ is required to find the origin of the correlated behaviors. Transmission electron microscopy is a promising solution to this problem because of its integrated functionalities, which include atomic-resolution imaging and electron energy loss spectroscopy.

Most rail system related simulations currently used are designed to simulate only one discipline system. This obviously assunes the other discipline system are running regularly not being affected by the system being simulated. In this paper a multi discipline simulator is proposed and its design concept is presented.A multi discipline simulator is the simultor in which major subsystems with different technical discipline are simulated simultaneously. The advantage of the simulator is in that it makes it possible to analyze the systems behavior while other discipline system vary. With this we can identify the possible to analyze the systems ehavior find their solutions. A proto type simulator has bee developed using object oriented programming. Object concept was judged best suitable to model the various multi-discipline self-controlling railway subsystems. It was applied to the target system, which is under development by the Korea Railroad Research institute. The test results show it is very useful in design verification. It could also be a good tool in research and development work to make to improe the system.

The Ultrasonic metal welding is used in the solid-phase welding method at room temperature or low temperature state. In welding process, the high frequency vibration energy is delivered to the welding part under the constant pressure for welding. In this study, we aimed to design and manufacture a 40,000 Hz band horn through finite element analysis. By performing modal analysis and harmonic response analysis, the modal analysis result is that the horn frequency was 39,599Hz and the harmonic response result that the horn frequency was 39,533Hz. These results were similar. In order to observe the designed horn's performance, about 4,000 voltage data was obtained from a light sensor and was analyzed by FFT analysis using Origin Tool. The result RMS amplitude was approximately $8.5{\mu}m$ at 40,000Hz, and maximum amplitude was $12.3{\mu}m$. Using this manufactured horn along with an ultrasonic metal welder and tension tester, the weldability of Cu sheets was evaluated. The maximum tensile force was 66.53 N in the welding condition of 2.0 bar pressure, 60% amplitude, and 0.32 s welding time. In excessive welding conditions, it was revealed that weldability is influenced negatively.

In order to identify the origin and nature of the spilled oil in the potential source, we analyzed the pattern of alkyi PAM(Polynuclear Aromatic Hydrocarbons) in fuel standard and environmental samples. Alkyl PAM patterns are used for fuel-type identification in weathered environmental samples. Detection of alkyl PAH was achieved by operation CC/MS in the SIM mode. We chose ions of naphthalene(m/z 128), C1-naphthalene(m/z 142), C2-naphthalene(m/z 156), C3-naphthalene(m/z 170), C4-naphthalene(m/z 184) for the comparison of this pattern according to the type of fuel. We analyzed tile pattern of alkyl PAH in neat gasoline, kerosene, diesel, and JP-8, and in groundwater samples which were collected in monitoring wells. The distribution map of alkyl-naphthalene shows different patterns among four different fuel types (gasoline, kerosene, diesel, and JP-8). Particularly, tile distribution map of kerosene and JP-8 is found to be of value in identifying fuel type in that the difference is clear. Therefore distribution patterns of alkyl-PAH compounds provide another useful tool for fuel-type identification of petroleum fuels.

Since. its first description by Albrecht in 1904 that hamartoma (Greek. meaning "error" and "tumor")is tumor-like malformation characterized by abnormal mixture of normal constituent in any organ it arises, hamartoma involving the lung has assumed the following clinical features.: 1) all the pulmonary lesions presenting as "coin lesions", it occupies about 8% according to various reports. It also constitutes the most prevalent lesion of all the benign lung tumors, appearing in 0.25% of the general population. 2) Peak incidence of the lesion occurs in the 5th and 6th decade as the carcinoma patient do, and the occasional growing tendency and periperal location as in this presentation renders the differential diagnosis from the malignant disease difficult and surgical intervention inevitable for definite histological diagnosis and treatment. 3) Nearly all the clinical investigations such as history, physical exam, bronchoscopy, culture, and cytological exam of sputum sre likely to futile:the only tool for detecting the presence of the lesion is X-ray, butthat's short of telling the true nature of it. 4) Because of its age of presentation and growing tendency in middle-aged adult, it still controversial whether it is developmental anomaly as Albrecht described, or true neoplasm denovo of fibrous connective tissue origin. This is a case report of surgical experience of pulmonary hamartoma which had nearly all the typical clinical features above mentioned and was reviewed with related literatures.

The aim of this study was to evaluate the possibility to characterize and classify waxes applied on some type of cheeses to obtain good stability during handling and transportation. Generally, waxes are obtained from the petrochemical industry, nowadays there is the possibility to also use biodegradable waxes produced from microorganisms. Preliminary studies were carried out to optimize sample presentation in NIR analysis, such as melting conditions (influence of temperature) and coat thickness of wax. 12 waxes (biodegradable or not) were analysed by using an InfraAlyzer 500 (Bran+Luebbe). The sample size was performed cutting pieces of 1.5 cm (height) x 1.5 cm (width) x 1.5 mm (thickness), previously melted at 9$0^{\circ}C$. NIR spectra were collected at room temperature, and data were processed by Sesame Software (Bran+Luebbe) to evaluate qualitative differences among samples by cluster analysis. Waxes were gathered on the basis of their origin (petrochemical or microbial). To better understand the significance of the NIRS bands discriminating among waxes, a two-dimensional correlation with FT-IR spectra, collected by a FT-IR/ATR 420 (JASCO) instrument, was made using 2DCORR program (Galactic Industries). On the basis of its classification power, NIRS appears to be a promising tool when used in routine analysis for a qualitative control of raw materials.

This paper analyzed the interregional flow changes of software (SW) industries using a GIS Flow Map. Employment data for SW enterprise headquarters from 1999 until 2008 were constructed according to the Origin-Destination Matrix, and were mapped and analyzed using the Flow Mapper and ArcGIS Flow Data Model. From the result we can identify the decentralization of interregional flow in SW industries and recognize the possibilities of the larger SW enterprises' employment, the higher locational footlooseness. The GIS Flow Map was identified as useful tool for researching growth, decline and spatial movement of industrial clusters that experience business relocation. This method can be applied to understand and visualize urban spatial changes.
