  • Purpose: The purpose of this study was to identify leisure activities, health promotion behaviors, and quality of life and regional differences in urban and rural elderly people. Method: This study was a descriptive research and data were collected from 198 elderly people using a questionnaire. Data were analyzed using the PASW WIN 18.0 Program. Result: Urban elders showed significantly higher rate for leisure activities compared to rural elders. While urban elders did not show a significant relationship among leisure activities, health promotion behaviors, and quality of life, rural elders showed a significant relationship among leisure activities, health promotion behavior, and quality of life. While the leisure activities and health promotion behaviors were influenced by recreational and social life in the urban elders, these activities and behaviors had no influence for rural elders. Leisure activities and quality of life were influenced by watching and enjoying activities, services and religious activities, and recreational and social life for urban elders but health sports was an influence for rural elders. Conclusion: Findings indicate regional differences and provide basic information to develop programs and leisure guidelines to enhance leisure activities, health promotion behaviors, and quality of life according to regional characteristics of elderly people.

  • It is very important that reduce the maintenance cost and extend life time of the urban transit EMU through effective maintenance method research. The maintenance cost of the urban transit EMU shares 60%~70% of it's life cycle cost. It means that the maintenance cost is bigger than the introduction cost of the urban transit EMU. In this study, I introduces a quality control technique to improve the urban transit vehicle reliability. I suggest the control chart using quality control technique. And the control charts apply to the Static Inverter of EMU.

  • 도시의 삶의 질 분석에 대한 화소기반 기법은 복잡성이라는 조건 하에서의 공간의사결정문제로 간주될 수 있다. 왜냐하면, 도시의 삶의 질 분석은 상이한 가중치가 부여된 여러 개의 평가기준에 기반을 두고 높은 혹은 낮은 수준의 삶의 질을 가진 지역을 도시공간에서 탐색하기 때문이다. 이러한 도시의 삶의 질 분석에는 측정단위가 다른 여러 개의 평가기준들의 부적절한 스케일링, 평가자의 판단에 있어서 비구조적인 주관성 그리고 래스터 GIS환경에서 대량의 데이타 처리 등과 같은 어려움이 있다. 도시의 삶의 질 분석에 있어서 이러한 비구조적 문제를 해결하기 위한 대안적인 접근방법의 개발이 필요하다. 이러한 점에서, 본 연구는 래스터 GIS 환경에서 도시의 삶의 질을 평가하기 위한 공간적 다기준평가 기법을 제안하고자 한다. 이러한 방법론은 애틀란타 대도시권을 사례로 예시되어진다. 본 연구에서 사용된 방법론은 도시의 삶의 질을 평가하는데 있어서 새로운 대안적인 접근방법으로 제시된다.

  • This paper evaluates and maps the quality of life in the Atlanta, Georgia metropolitan area in 2000. Three environmental variables from Landsat TM data, four socioeconomic variables from census data, and a hazard-related variable from toxic release inventory (TRI) database were integrated into a geographic information system (GIS) environment for the quality of life assessment. To solve the incompatibility problem in areal units among different data, the four socioeconomic variables aggregated by zonal units were spatially disaggregated into individual pixels. Principal components analysis (PCA) was employed to integrate and transform environmental, socioeconomic, and hazard-related variables into a resultant quality of life score for each pixel. Results indicate that the highest quality of life score was found around Sandy Springs, Roswell, Alphretta, and the northern parts of Fulton County along Georgia 400 whereas the lowest quality of life score was clustered around Smyma of Cobb County, the inner city of Atlanta, and Hartsfield-Jackson International Airport. The results also reveals that normalized difference vegetation index (NDVI) and relative risk from TRI facilities are two versatile indicators of environmental and socioeconomic quality of an urban area in the United States.

  • The objective of this study is to introduce the urban utility concept that combines urban growth and urban disasters in the aspect of a conceptual theory. While many studies focused on the dollar amount damaged from a disaster, it requires adding not just building damages or human body losses but also the quality of life satisfaction. An issue in measuring the quality of life satisfaction needs to introduce a proper mode quantifying it. This study introduces the urban utility change in measuring the negative impacts of a disaster on urban life, which has been rarely investigated. To identify urban utility, urban flooding that is a cross-sectoral agenda and important to both developed and developing countries was adopted to respond to its increased frequency and damages, encouraging governments to focus on flood control policies. By combining a literature review on urban utility and urban growth, this study defined the urban utility concept as a net benefit of a resident with earnings subtracting housing and commuting costs. The theoretical study also explained that urban utility and its components dynamically change as per urban growth and disasters that even reversely affect urban growth. Because the urban utility can be one of the useful indices to appreciate the relationship between a disaster and urban growth, it is highly expected to apply for similar disaster impacts on urban areas, including COVID-19 and various global warming issues.
