An accurate cross sections set is necessary for the quantitatively understanding and modeling of plasma phenomena. By using the electron swarm method, we determine an accurate electron cross sections set for objective atoms or molecule at low electron energy range. It is general calculation that used in this method to an two-term approximation of Boltzmann equation. But it may give erroneous transport coefficients for CF$_4$ molecule treated in this paper having \`C2v symmetry\`, therefore, multi-term approximation of the Boltzmann equation analysis which can consider anisotropic scattering exactly is carried out. It is necessary to require understanding of the fundamental principle of analysis method. Therefore, in this paper, we compared the electron transport coefficients(W and ND$\_$L/) in pure Ar, O$_2$, and CF$_4$ gas calculated by using two-term approximation of the Boltzmann equation analysis code uses the algorithm proposed by Tagashira et al. with those by multi-term approximation by Rubson and Ness which was developed at James-Cook university, and discussed an application and/or validity of the calculation method by comparing these calculated results.

Bao Loc City is the new tourism destination in Lam Dong province, Vietnam, where more and more tourists have been drawn to pay a visit. This study aims to test the correlative impact of tourism service quality factors on satisfaction of the tourists who have visited Bao Loc City. The key theory used in this study is SERVQUAL scale. The survey sample consists of 350 tourists who stayed overnight in Bao Loc City in the last quarter of 2019; 315 valid survey questionnaires could be used for the analysis. The research applied Cronbach's Alpha, exploratory factor analysis (EFA), confirmatory factor analysis (CFA), structural equation modeling (SEM), and bootstrap test. The results show that the satisfaction of the tourists who have visited Bao Loc City has been affected statistically by three factors: (1) Responsiveness; (2) Reliability; and (3) Empathy, which were ranked by descending importance. Surprisingly, the research found that Tangibles and Assurance do not have an impact on tourists' satisfaction towards Bao Loc City. The research formulates some suggestions to the city policy-makers and the tourism businesses management in Bao Loc City in order to enhance tourists' satisfaction through improving the tourism service quality at Bao Loc City.

In this study, the sensitivity analysis of bed changes due to the various sediment transport equations have been conducted for 80 km reach of the Lower Nakdong River using the HEC-6 which is one dimensional numerical model. The bed elevation changes according to the different sediment transport formulas were compared and analyzed quantitatively. As a result of the numerical simulation, the final bed elevation calculated by Engelund and Hansen(1967), Ackers and White(1973), and Yang(1979) formulas was similar to one another in configuration. The bed change simulated by Engelund and Hansen(1967) were greatest among them, for example, 5.5 m deposition and 2.9 m erosion for 100 years. Also, in the case of Toffaleti (1969) equation, the maximum bed deposition of 8.04 m after 100 years was induced at the 73 km location upstream of the Nakdong River Estuary Barrage. Meyer-Peter-M$\ddot{u}$ller(1948) and Wilcock(2001) formulas produced the deposition only at the upstream end and there was little bed change in the downstream area. The unreal bed configuration of continuously up and down pattern was simulated by Laursen(1958) transport equation.

Stable channel design is to determine the width, depth and slope for satisfying the condition that the upstream incoming sediment rate is equal to the sediment transport rate at the design channel. Therefore, the most sensitive variable when designing a stable channel is the selection of a sediment transport equation applied for the channel design. Especially if in the case of gravel beds the designer uses the equation developed by using the data of sand rivers, the calculation result of the stable channel section has large errors. In this study, the stable channel design has been applied to the gravel bed river using the previous stable channel design program with newly added the sediment transport equation for gravel beds; and the stable channel section considering design constraints has been produced by using the analytical method. As results, in the case of the application with the fixed width, the depth predicted by Ackers and White's equation was the shallowest and Meyer-Peter and $M\ddot{u}ller's$ equation was 0.8 m deeper than the current section of 2.4 m. In the case of the application with the fixed depth, the width predicted by Engelund and Hansen's equation was twice wider than the current section and by Meyer-Peter and $M\ddot{u}ller's$ equation was 20 m wider than the current section of 44 m.

The primary concern of this research is to examine the phonon mean free path (MFP) spectrum contribution to heat conduction. The size effect of materials is determined by phonon MFP, and the size effect appears when the phonon MFP is similar to or less than the characteristic length of materials. Therefore, knowledge of the phonon MFP is essential to increase or decrease the heat conduction of a material for engineering applications, such as micro/nanosystems. In this study, frequency dependence of the phonon transport is considered using the Boltzmann transport equation based on a full phonon dispersion model. Additionally, the phonon MFP spectrums of in-plane and out-of-plane heat transport are investigated by varying the film thickness of the silicon layer from 41 nm to 177 nm. This will increase the understanding of anisotropic heat conduction in a SOI (Silicon-on-Insulator) transistor.

This paper describes the development of the stream-tube based dispersion model for modeling contaminant transport in open channels. The operator-splitting technique is employed to separate the 2D contaminant transport equation into the pure advection and pure dispersion equations. Then the total variation diminishing (TVD) schemes are combined with the second-order Lax-Wendroff and third-order QUICKEST explicit finite difference schemes respectively to solve the pure advection equation in order to prevent the occurrence of numerical oscillations. Due to various limiters owning different features, the numerical tests for 1D pure advection and 2D dispersion are conducted to evaluate the performance of different TVD schemes firstly, then the TVD schemes are applied to experimental data for simulating the 2D mixing in a straight trapezoidal channel to test the model capability. Both the numerical tests and model application show that the TVD schemes are very competent for solving the advection-dominated transport problems.

A multi-region model for solute transport through saturated soils has been developed to describe preferential flow. The model consists of numerous discrete pore groups, which are characterized by a discrete dispersion coefficient, flow velocity, and porosity . The hydraulic properties for each pore group are derived from a soil's hydraluic conductivity and soil water characteristic functions . Flow in pore group is described by the classical advection-disersion equation (ADE). An implict finite difference scheme was applied to the governing equation that results in a block-tridiagonal system of equations that is very efficient and allows the soil to be divided into any number of pore groups. The numerical technique is derived from methods used to solve coupled equations in fluid dynamics problems and can also be applied to the transport of interacting solutes. The results of the model are compared to the experimental data from published papers. This paper contributes on the characteristics of the method when applied to the parallel porosity model to describe preferential flow of solutes in soil.

A tetrafluoromethane$(CF_4)$ is most useful gas in plasma dry etching, because it has a electron attachment cross-section. therefor it is important to calculate transport coefficients like electron drift velocity, ionization coefficient, attachment coefficient, effective ionization coefficient. and critical E/N. The aim of this study is to get these transport coefficients for information of the insulation strength and efficiency of etching process. Electron transport coefficients in $CF_4+Ar$ gas mixture are simulated in range of E/N values from 1 to 250 [Td] at 300[K} and 1 [Torr] by using Boltzmann equation method. The results of this method can be important data to present characteristic of gas for plasma etching and insulation, specially critical E/N is a data to evaluate insulation strength of a gas. and is presented in this paper for various mixture ratios of $CF_4+Ar$ gas mixture.

The present article investigates experimentally and theoretically thermal and optical characteristics of thin film structures through measurement of thermal conductivity of Pyrex 7740 and reflectance in silicon thin film. The $3{\omega}$ method is used to measure thermal conductivity of very thin film with high accuracy and the optical characteristics in thin films are studied to examine the influence of incidence angle of light on reflectance by using the CTM(Characteristics Transmission Method) and the 633 nm He-Ne laser reflectance measurement system. It is found that the estimated reflectance of silicon show good agreement with experimental data. In particular, the present study solves the EPRT(Equation of Phonon Radiative Transport) which is based on Boltzmann transport equation for predicting thermal conductivity of nanoscale film structures. From the results, the measured thermal conductivity is in good agreement with the previous published data. Moreover, thermal conductivities are estimated for different film thickness. It indicates that as film thickness decreases, thermal conductivity decreases substantially due to internal scattering.

Emission of hazardous and volatile organic chemicals from solid waste landfill site was become to important issue because of environmental pollution and health risk by such chemicals. Laboratory batch and continuous experiments were conducted respectively to elucidate isothermal sorption behaviors and transport phenomena(by gas through unsaturated solid waste layer) in wet solid waste-gas system. Source separated and size reduced refuse(bulky waste) and incinerated ash were used after controlling water content, and trichloroethylene(TCE) was chosen among many such chemicals because of it's generality among those man-created pollutants. Isothermal TCE sorption equilibria wet solid waste-gas system can be described in linear equation and partition coefficient in this system can be estimated approximately by the simple equation derived from schematic structure of the system. Transport equation modified by instantaneous equilibrium sorption fraction and kinetic sorption rate(overall mass transfer capacity coefficient) simulated well the column experiment results.
