While contingent valuation method (CVM) has been widely used for non-market valuations, it has been argued that it may suffer from hypothetical bias. However, if CVM respondents believe that their responses could affect the real consequence, the method could satisfy consequentiality. If a CVM satisfies a sufficiently high consequentiality, hypothetical bias could disappear as shown by some previous studies. In this study, we experimentally compare the willingness to pay (WTP) for donation of a relatively high consequentiality group with that of a relatively low consequentiality group for Korean university students. We find that both the existence probability and the size of hypothetical bias are lower for the high consequentiality group. This result implies that a CVM for a real policy including environmental policies could be free from hypothetical bias because its consequentiality would be relatively high, and warrants a future field study investigating the effect of consequentiality on hypothetical bias.

Existing link-based Frank-Wolfe algorithm has been widely used, thanks to its ease of simulation and stable results; however, it comes with low convergence issue towards near the optimum value. Such issue was not considered as a major drawback in the past. However, in the present, some arguments have occurred over the method's stability, analysis time, and other limits as the size and details of the fundamental data for traffic analysis have vastly improved. Therefore, this paper compared the theoretical attributes and the pros and cons between the Frank-Wolfe algorithm and the Origin-based algorithm and Path-based algorithm newly being developed. As a result of this paper, there is possibility that a problem of stability may arise depending on the convergence and exit criteria. Thus, In practice, this effort to derive the appropriate level of convergence is required to secure and stable results.

저자는 등각사상을 추하기 위한 기존의 여러 Theodorsen 방정식의 해법 중 가장 유효한 해법으로 알려져 있는 Wegmann의 방법을 다룬바 있다. Wegmann의 방법으로 수치실험을 한 결과 난이도가 높다고 예상되는 문제에 있어 수렴했다가 발산을 하는 불안정현상이 나타났으며 수렴하지 않는 불안정현상의 원인을 분석하여 저주파필터를 적용한 새로운 반복법을 제안하여 Wegmann 방법으로는 발산하는 모든 문제에 있어서 수렴하는 수치실험 결과를 얻었다[1]. 본 논문에서는 저주파필터를 적용한 해법에 의해 수치적으로 수렴한 결과를 이론적으로 증명한다.

This study concerns with partial sum of Fourier series, Fourier coefficients and the $L^1$-convergence of Fourier series. First, we introduce the $L^1$-convergence results. We consider equivalence relations of the partial sum of Fourier series from the early 20th century until the middle of. Second, we investigate the minor lineage of $L^1$-convergence theorem from W. H. Young to G. A. Fomin. Finally, we compare and reinterpret the $L^1$-convergence theorems.

본 연구는 우리나라 산업간에 Technology 수렴가능성에 대한 기존 선형(Linearity) 설정 관계식보다 비선형(Nonlinearity) 설정관계식에서 실증분석하는 데 연구목적이 있다. 본 연구목적을 위하여 장기적 시계열자료를 이용하여(1970∼2000), 우리나라 제조업과 총 산업(Grand Total)간에 Technology Gap에 대한 정상성(Stationarity)을 검증함으로써, Technology수렴 가능성을 검토하였다. 본 연구결과는 Technology수렴가설에 대한 두 가지 중요한 실증분석방향을 제공하고 있다. 첫째, 우리나라 산업간에 Technology 수렴가능성은 비선형관계에서 분석해야 한다는 결론을 얻었다. 따라서 우리나라 산업간에 Technology 수렴가능성은 단순 선형관계를 기반으로 할 경우, 설정오류에 따른 Technology 수렴가능성이 성립하지 않을 가능성이 높게 나타날 수 있었다. 둘째, 우리나라 경제의 경우, Technology 수렴가능성에 대한 분석결과는 비선형관계에서 Technology Regime별로 Technology 수렴가능성이 다르게 나타나고 있음으로 실증분석방법론 및 그 결과에 대한 시사점도출에 유의해야 한다.

This study examines the existence of ${\beta}$-convergence of carbon dioxide emissions in 24 countries over the period 1971~2002. For that purpose, The model of economic growth developed by Barro and Sala-i-Martin (1995) is extended and conducted Dynamic panel analysis and unit root testing by employing the panel stationarity test of Levin et al. (2002) and 1m et al. (2003). A dynamic panel estimation is well known method including capacity to control for both the endogeneity problem and the unobserved country-specific effects problem. Dynamic panel estimation method has been widely used in similar empirical studies. therefore, we also used the dynamic panel estimation method in our estimation. The result show that evidence of ${\beta}$-convergence exists among both the Obligatory GHG reduction countries (Annex) and the Non-obligatory GHG reduction countries (Non-Annex). but China discharge amount of $CO_2$ gas more than any other country. This fact can cause some bias in overall test. and so we reexamined test of convergence for Non-annex countries excluding china. As expected, in the Non-annex countries excluding china, I couldn't find any evidence of convergence.

Surface pressure distributions over the RAE-A wing-body configuration were investigated and the grid convergence along the streamwise, spanwise, and circumferential directions was numerically studied. Flow analysis in subsonic and transonic conditions was conducted using the $k-{\omega}$ Wilcox-Durbin+ turbulence model. Surface pressure distributions for subsonic flows were well matched, but those for transonic shocked flows showed a little discrepancy with the experimental data. A cubic spline extrapolation method was applied in order to investigate the grid convergence. This method presented that the grid resolution in the circumferential direction is the most important grid parameter. A refined grid system was made based on the grid convergence study and provided more accurate prediction, especially on the symmetric body surface of RAE-A configuration.

This paper is concerned with an important aspect of regional income convergence, ${\beta}$-convergence, which refers to the negative relationship between initial income levels and income growth rates of regions over a period of time. The common research framework on ${\beta}$-convergence which is based on OLS regression models has two drawbacks. First, it ignores spatially autocorrelated residuals. Second, it does not provide any way of exploring spatial heterogeneity across regions in terms of ${\beta}$-convergence. Given that empirical studies on ${\beta}$-convergence need to be edified by spatial data analysis, this paper aims to: (1) provide a critical review of empirical studies on ${\beta}$-convergence from a spatial perspective; (2) investigate spatio-temporal income dynamics across the U.S. labor market areas for the last 30 years (1969-1999) by fitting spatial regression models and applying bivariate ESDA techniques. The major findings are as follows. First, the hypothesis of ${\beta}$-convergence was only partially evidenced, and the trend substantively varied across sub-periods. Second, a SAR model indicated that ${\beta}$-coefficient for the entire period was not significant at the 99％ confidence level, which may lead to a conclusion that there is no statistical evidence of regional income convergence in the US over the last three decades. Third, the results from bivariate ESDA techniques and a GWR model report that there was a substantive level of spatial heterogeneity in the catch-up process, and suggested possible spatial regimes. It was also observed that the sub-periods showed a substantial level of spatio-temporal heterogeneity in ${\beta}$-convergence: the catch-up scenario in a spatial sense was least pronounced during the 1980s.

This paper studies economic growth convergence conditioning on various characteristics of East Asian countries. Our findings suggest that when trade openness is conditioned in addition to human capital and investment, the economic growth rates for East Asian countries converge faster than when human capital and investment alone are considered. In particular, while Northeast Asian countries exhibit absolute economic growth convergence as well as economic growth convergence conditioned on trade openness, Southeast Asian countries show only economic growth convergence conditioned on trade openness. Analysis of policy implications based on the results of the first East Asian countries' high dependence on foreign trade, trade openness in the convergence of economic growth has had a significant positive effect. Second, in order to establish a regional economic integration in East Asia, Northeast Asia and Southeast Asia, the country's economic growth is necessary to reduce the gap.

This study concerns with John B. Fourier' s life, his teachers, his younger scholars and the $L^1$-convergence of Fourier series. First, we introduce the correlation between the French Revolution and Fourier who is significant in the history of mathematics. Second, we investigate Fourier' s teachers, students and a minor lineage of his younger scholars from 19th century to 20th century. Finally, we compare the theorem of Telyakovskii with the theorem of kolmogorov on $L^1$-convergence of Fourier series.
