There is high probability of children's traffic accidents. Because their physical, mental attribute are weak. Major part of the accidents happen during walking. Above all, jaywalking is the biggest traffic accident reason. Many traffic accidents take place on the road to school or near the home area. So Ministry of Public Administration and Security legislated children safeguard zone since 1995. But a study are inadequate the safety facilities on the effectiveness verification in the school zone. Therefore, this study aims to analyze the effectiveness of safety facilities. The vehicle speed is a direct correlation traffic accident. So in this study, the MOE(Measure of Effectiveness) is average travel speed in the school zone. The results shows that hump, rised pedestrian crossing has an effect.

The interface-states between the top silicon layer and buried oxide layer of nano-SOI substrate were developed. Also, the effects of thermal treatment processes on the interface-state distributions were investigated for the first time by using pseudo-MOSFETs. We found that the interface-state distributions were strongly influenced by the thermal treatment processes. The interface-states were generated by the rapid thermal annealing (RTA) process. Increasing the RTA temperature over $800^{\circ}C$, the interface-state density considerably increased. Especially, a peak of interface-states distribution that contributes a hump phenomenon of subthreshold curve in the inversion mode operation of pseudo-MOSFETs was observed at the conduction band side of the energy gap, hut it was not observed in the accumulation mode operation. On the other hand, the increased interface-state density by the RTA process was effectively reduced by the relatively low temperature annealing process in a conventional thermal annealing (CTA) process.

In this paper the theoretical analysis of the site attenuation was made on the concept of mutual impedance of antennas and the cause of characteristic hump in the site attenuation curve below 80 MHz is explained. The deviation between the FCC site attenuatios and the experimental results of an ideal open area test site at low frequencies(below 80MHz) was found to be the mutual coupling effects of the antennas under the FCC's measurement conditions. It seems desirable that the site attenuations curve of FCC document be revicused to the theoretical curves presented in this paper is long as the FCC's measurement conditions are to the applied.

Four types of structure of tunnel field-effect transistors (TFETs) have been investigated by TCAD simulation. Pocket and L-shaped TFETs are better performance than single-gate and double-gate TFETs in terms of on-current and subthreshold swing. New guideline of TFETs is presented for the structure design.

In this paper, a simple practical method to estimate the drag of Super-Cavitating Underwater Vehicles (SCUV) is proposed that can obtain the drag with only principal dimensions in an initial design stage. SCUV is divided into cavitator, forebody, afterbody, base, and control fin and the drag of each part is estimated. The formulas for the drag coefficient are proposed for the disk and cone type cavitators and wedges used as control fins. The formulas are a function of cavitation number, cone or wedge angle, and Reynolds number. This method can confirm the drag characteristics of SCUV that the drag hump appears according to the coverage of the body by the cavity and the cavitator drag remains only when the entire body is covered by cavity. Applying this method to SCUV of various shapes, it is confirmed that the effects of cavitating and non-cavitating conditions, cavitator and body shape, and speed could be found.

Zinc oxide(ZnO) films were prepared by ultrasonic spray pyrolysis on indium (In) films deposited by evaporation and subsequently submitted to rapid thermal annealing (RTA). The RTA was processed in air or a vacuum ambient. The crystallographic properties and surface morphologies of the films were characterized before and after the RTA by X-ray diffraction (XRD) and scanning electron microscopy(SEM), respectively. The resistivity variation of the films with RTA temperature and time was measured by the 4-point probe method. Auger electron spectroscopy(AES) was carried out to figure out the distribution of indium atoms in the ZnO films. The resistivity of the ZnO on In(ZnO/In) films decreased to 2${\times}$10$\^$-3/ $\Omega$cm by diffusion of the In. The In diffusion into the ZnO films roughened the surface of the ZnO films. The results of depth profile by AES showed a hump of In atoms around ZnO/In interface after the RTA at 800$^{\circ}C$, which disappeared by the RTA at 1000$^{\circ}C$. The effects of temperature, time and ambient during the RTA on the structural and electrical properties of the ZnO/In films were discussed.

In this study, new dispersion-correction terms are added to a leap-frog finite difference scheme for the linear shallow-water equations with the purpose of considering dispersion effects of the linear Boussinesq equations for propagation of tsunamis. The numerical model developed in this study is tested to the problem that the initial free surface displacement is a Gaussian hump over a constant water depth, and the predicted numerical results are compared with analytical solutions. The results of the present numerical model are accurate in comparison with those of existing models.

Derivative analysis, based on the derivative of the drawdown as a function of time (i.e., rate of drawdown change), was applied to the evaluation of hydraulic parameters of the aquifer as an aid of the aquifer test interpretation based on the Theis solutions. Pumping tests were conducted at a coastal fractured aquifer in Muan county, Korea, of which the drawdown data, measured at the two observation wells, were used for derivative analysis. Wellbore storage and transition period were hard to identify at conventional log-log and semi long plots, but was easily recognized by distinctive curves of positive unit slope, hump and negative unit slope in the derivative plot. For the observation well of OW-2 at which wellbore storage and transition lasted over an hour, conventional aquifer analysis would suffer from the uniqueness problems and in further result in erroneous hydraulic parameters. Derivative analysis was found to be effective for distinguishing the drawdown data directly reflecting the aquifer property from those reflecting non aquifer effects such as wellbore storage and transition, which offers a unified methodology to yield correct hydraulic parameters from aquifer test data.

Glass fiber reinforced polymer (GFRP) elastic gridshells consist of long continuous GFRP tubes that form elastic deformations. In this paper, a method for the form-finding of gridshell structures is presented based on the interpretable machine learning (ML) approaches. A comparative study is conducted on several ML algorithms, including support vector regression (SVR), K-nearest neighbors (KNN), decision tree (DT), random forest (RF), AdaBoost, XGBoost, category boosting (CatBoost), and light gradient boosting machine (LightGBM). A numerical example is presented using a standard double-hump gridshell considering two characteristics of deformation as objective functions. The combination of the grid search approach and k-fold cross-validation (CV) is implemented for fine-tuning the parameters of ML models. The results of the comparative study indicate that the LightGBM model presents the highest prediction accuracy. Finally, interpretable ML approaches, including Shapely additive explanations (SHAP), partial dependence plot (PDP), and accumulated local effects (ALE), are applied to explain the predictions of the ML model since it is essential to understand the effect of various values of input parameters on objective functions. As a result of interpretability approaches, an optimum gridshell structure is obtained and new opportunities are verified for form-finding investigation of GFRP elastic gridshells during lifting construction.
