This study aims to survey the acoustical environment in the region around airport where there are various transportation noises such as aircraft noise, railway noise and traffic noise, and to analyze the subjective response on the noise to the people who live in house or work in office nearby airport. Measurement and subjective response evaluation were carried out at the same time and outdoor noise level was measured all day long to calculate one day results such as average Leq or one day WECPNL etc. The results showed that the military aircraft produces very high level comparing with commercial aircraft, for instance the sound level of commercial outdoor was lower than that of military aircraft indoor. Double and triple window were more effective for controlling the noise than single window, which showed the possibility of sound insulation treatment by installing windows having higher sound insulation performance. Finally the subjective response was resulted that the most annoying noise is from aircraft and counterplan they hope is 'airport moving out'. Leq 65 dB(A), the criteria value of sound insulation treatment, was corresponding to the subjective response of median annoyance '4' out of 7th scale.

The leisure demands and the interests for the quality of urban residents have been increased, but the leisure space is absolutely deficient. In the leisure site planning, the concrete understanding about people's leisure site choice is the most important thing, not only for the aspect of the leisure demands reception and the improvement of the life quality but also the aspect of the efficiency of land use. The purposes of this study are firstly, to find out prefered leisure sites, secondly, to establish the choice models of the each prefered leisure site to be substituted for existing indiscriminating leisure space planning. And for the choice model establishment, we used Logit Model, which has been used in the Traffic, the Toursim, the Economics fields. We extract people's perfered leisure sites in Seoul through 1st and 2nd survey, those are a park, a pocket park, a play hall, a recreation center(sport center), a hobby facility, a library. The established choice model for each prefered site can predict people's choice about 70 percents correctly. It indicates that the Logit model is useful for the explanation about the choice of residents in the urban area. Specially, the main affect factors to the choice of each prefered leisure site are different. It means that different consideration factors or different standards are needed for each leisure site planning.

The urinary bladder retroflexion, flipped over backwards into the pelvic canal, by trauma has been rarely reported in dogs. This paper describes clinical and radiological features of urinary bladder retroflexion in two dogs with a history of traffic accident. The main clinical signs were hind limb lameness, severe pain and dysuria. Radiography and ultrasonography were performed to evaluate the patient's damages. No remarkable findings were observed except pelvic fracture on survey radiograph. On cystourethrography, caudal displacement and retroflexion of the bladders were identified. Cystopexy was performed and the bladders were repositioned. After surgery one dog with severe azotemia and bilateral hydroureteronephrosis was deteriorated noticeably and euthanized by request of the owner, while the other dog was recovered no recurrence of the problem by 12 months post-surgery. It should be considered that contrast study and serial assessment in urinary tract be important to demonstrate the evidence of bladder retroflexion and evaluate the prognosis in dogs with severe trauma.

Recently, South Korea preferentially allocated frequencies to build 5G networks as a core competitiveness of the 4th Industrial Revolution. Although the government recognize the importance of 5G construction and preoccupation, network operators have limited to some services, testing the possibility of practical use of 5G. They hesitated to actively build and to carry out the service of a complete 5G network. While 5G is being developed and standardized like this, no one is sure of this step exactly what 5G will be. Thus, following research questions are asked by various stakeholders of 5G market: What is an ideal service providing method for the practical use of 5th generation mobile network? And what are the critical elements to be considered when selecting the service providing method? Therefore, the study aims to investigate 5G service providing issues and elements to be considered and to provide most appropriate service providing method for the practical use of 5G. The results identify that 'Specialized Service' is most appropriate method at the aspects of benefit and opportunity as well as the aspect of risk. In addition, the outcomes imply that the experts replying to the survey not only expect the expansion of emerging market, but also concern the social risk and cost. Since the study dealt with economic, social and business issues in providing 5G service, it might contribute not only to practical research, but also to academic research regarding 5G service method.

Background: Occupational safety issues related to food delivery riders emerge with evidence of an increase in associated traffic accidents and injuries along with the rapid growth of the online food delivery business. This paper focuses on food delivery riders' job stress and investigates its relationships with both antecedents and risky riding outcomes. Method: Survey data were collected from 279 Taiwanese food delivery motorcycle riders and analyzed using hierarchical regression analysis. Results: The results show that job overload and time pressure positively impact riders' job stress, while self-efficacy slightly reduces job stress. Job stress positively leads to risky driving behavior and distraction. In addition, time pressure can strengthen the impact of job overload on job stress. Riders' risky riding attitude can also strengthen the impacts of job stress on risky riding behaviors and distraction. Conclusion: This paper advances the literature on online food delivery as well as the occupational safety improvement of food delivery riders. Specifically, this study provides insights into the job stress of food delivery motorcycle riders and the effects of job characteristics and risky behavioral consequences.
