  • As CBR(Chemical, Biological, and Radiological) attack increases, the importance of CBR protective facilities is being emphasized. When CBR warfare emerges, a task force team, who exist outside of CBR protective facility, should enter the CBR protective facility through neutralizing process in CCA(Contamination Control Area) and TFA(Toxic Free Area). If a bottleneck occurs in the process or zones, the task force team cannot enter the CBR protective facility efficiently and may cause inefficiency in its operation performance or result in casualties. The current design criteria of the CBR protective facility is only limited to ventilation system and it does not consider how much time it takes to enter the facility. Therefore, this research aims to propose the entering time estimation model with discrete event simulation. To make the simulation model, the procedure performed through CCA and TFA is defined and segmented. The actual time of the procedure are measured and adapted for the simulation model. After running the simulation model, variables effecting the entering time are selected for alternatives with adjustments. This entering time estimation model for CBR protective facility is expected to help take time into consideration during the designing phase of CBR protective facility and help CBR protective facility managers to plan facility operation in a more realistic approach.

  • This study used laten class growth analysis to identify discrete developmental patterns of delinquent behaviors in adolescence. This present article also examined associations among these trajectories to determine how the development of delinquent behaviors relates to protective and risk factors, which include parental monitoring, attachment with parent, association with deviant peers, self-control, and negative stigma from others. Four-wave panel data from a Korea Youth Panel Study were used for the latent class growth model analysis. The sample consisted of 3,446 adolescents who were assessed at 4 measurement waves with approximately 1-year interval. Four trajectories of delinquent behaviors emerged: delinquency persistence, delinquency increaser, delinquency decreaser, normative group(almost no delinquent behaviors). Association with deviant peers had the most proximal strong influence on the probability of being in the delinquency increaser and delinquency persistence group compared, noed to the normative group. Parental monitoring, self-efficacy and negative stigma also differentiated the four delinquent behavior trajectories from one another after controllig for socio-demographic variables. The study suggested that there is a significant heterogeneity in the timing and change rate of delinquency progression. Adolescent delinquency prevention and intervention programs will need to consider this heterogeneity and enhance attention to protective and risk factors depending on the subpopulation.
