A transient 3-D numerical simulation was performed to analyze the fire safety in a railway tunnel equipped with a mechanical ventilation system. The behavior of pollutants was studied for the emergency operation mode of ventilation system in case of fire in the center of the rescue station and near the escape route. Various schemes of escape route construction for connection angle($45^{\circ}$, $90^{\circ}$, 135^{\circ}$) and slope($10^{\circ}$) were evaluated for the ventilation efficiency in the fire near the escape route. From the results, it was shown that the mode of the ventilation fan operation which pressurizes the tunnel not under the fire and ventilates the smoke from the tunnel under the fire is most effective for the smoke control in the tunnel in case of the fire occurrence. It was also shown that the blowing of jet fan from the rescue tunnel to the main tunnel should be in the same direction as the flow direction in the main tunnel arising from the traffic and the buoyancy.

The purpose of this study is to draw the factors that makes the visitors decide to visit the art-museum and verifying the influence of visit determinants on recommendation intention and revisit intention. Visitors to Gwangju Museum of Art and Gwangju Biennale in Gwang-ju city were chosen for this study. Data were collected for 30 days from September 15 to October 14, 2018. A total of 350 visitors were attended in this research and finally 315 samples were used for the empirical analysis. The result of this study showed that 4 determinant factors(Escape from the ordinary, self-development, novelty, culture experience) of visiting art-museum were identified which all influences on behavioral intention(recommendation intention, revisit intention). Particularly, 'novelity' is the major factor influences on recommendation intention followed by 'escape from the ordinary' factor. Moreover, 'escape from the ordinary' factor influences the most on revisit intention among all determinants of visiting art-museum.

Building become higher. larger and more complex than ever before, showing abrupt changes in building structures. forms and mechanical systems. Likewise hazads of fire and the scale of fire losses become more and more greater. Therefore. considerations for fire safety take up great portion of the building design process. In this study, problems of high-rise building fires and basic directions for fire safety of high-rise building design were studied through the statistical analysis of 138 fire cases. The results of this study are summarized as follows : ·Most of the fires in high-rise building occur on the low floors and the fire frequencies are very low on the upper floors. Fire casualties are liable to be more on the upper floors than on tile floor of fire origin. ·The important causes of evacuation failures were analyzed as being late in escape and lack of stairwell enclosures. ·The main cause of vertical fire spread is lack of stairwell enclosures. However, the fire spreads mainly through the enterior windows in apartment houses. The combustible materials in buildings act on as the major factors of horizontal fire spread and the improper fire doors play role of another the critical causes. ·The basic directions for fire safety of high-rise building design put much stress firstly on the compartmentation of the buildings effectively performing the provision of safe escape routes and the safe refuse places in buildings.

This study presents the investigation of wave dispersion characteristics of a magneto-electro-elastic functionally graded (MEE-FG) nanosize beam utilizing nonlocal strain gradient theory (NSGT). In this theory, a material length scale parameter is propounded to show the influence of strain gradient stress field, and likewise, a nonlocal parameter is nominated to emphasize on the importance of elastic stress field effects. The material properties of heterogeneous nanobeam are supposed to vary smoothly through the thickness direction based on power-law form. Applying Hamilton's principle, the nonlocal governing equations of MEE-FG nanobeam are derived. Furthermore, to derive the wave frequency, phase velocity and escape frequency of MEE-FG nanobeam, an analytical solution is employed. The validation procedure is performed by comparing the results of present model with results exhibited by previous papers. Results are rendered in the framework of an exact parametric study by changing various parameters such as wave number, nonlocal parameter, length scale parameter, gradient index, magnetic potential and electric voltage to show their influence on the wave frequency, phase velocity and escape frequency of MEE-FG nanobeams.

In accordance with the revision of "Special act on the safety control of publicly used establishments", this study is aim to measure the change in evacuation time due to whether safety facilities, etc. are installed of a room escape cafe business and kids cafe business(hereinafter referred to as "New publicly used establishments"), which were added as new targets of the publicly used business from June 8, 2022. In the case of new publicly used establishments or publicly used establishments whose owners are changed after the revision of the relevant laws, safety facilities, etc. are installed and maintained under the "Special act on the safety control of publicly used establishments", but in the case of existing businesses that have been operating even before the revision of the law, the business continues without safety facilities, etc. installed because the revised law is not retroactively applied. The purpose of this study is to compare and analyze the change in evacuation time by measuring the evacuation time to operating before the revision of the law to simulate evacuation at existing new publicly used establishments without safety facilities, etc. and measure the evacuation time at new publicly used establishments with safety facilities after the revision of the law

The objectives of this study is analysis of the characteristics of fire risk and survey of narrow dwelling space(the Karaoke, Gosiwon etc). The narrow dwelling space has special structure characteristics; the narrow and the complex escape rote. Gosiwon have very separate and exclusive space room, so have the problem a suppression of fire. Furthermore almost Karaokes located in basement have a complex and limitary escape rote. Therefore we should research and development the exploration equipment that search a source of the fire and a emergency rescuer in the scene of the fire.

Tumor cells may alter the expression of proteins involved in antigen processing and presentation, allowing them to avoid recognition and elimination by cytotoxic T cells. In order to investigate whether the major histocompatibility complex (MHC) class I-mediated antigen processing machinery is preserved in human lung cancer cell lines, we examined the expression of multiple components of the MHC class I antigen processing pathway, including transporter associated with antigen processing (TAP), $\beta_2$-microglobulin, MHC class I molecules, and chaperones which have not been previously examined in this context. Row cytometry analysis showed that the cell surface expression of MHC class I molecules was downregulated in all of the cell lines. While some cell lines showed no detectable expression of MHC class I molecules, pulse-chase experiments showed that MHC class I molecules were synthesized in the other cell lines but not transported from the endoplasmic reticulum to the cell surface. Low or nondetectable levels of TAP1 and/or TAP2 expression were demonstrated by Western blot analysis in all of the cell lines, representing a variety of lung tissue types. In some cases, this was accompanied by loss of tapasin expression. Our findings suggest that downregulation of antigen processing may be one of the strategies used by tumors to escape immune surveillance. This study provides further information for designing the potential therapeutic applications such as immunotherapy and gene therapy against cancers.

Most of the sign systems involved in evacuation are not useful in seismic situations where people have to evacuate with their heads bowed, given that they are at the top of the wall. Based on the analysis and understanding of seismic evacuation situations, this study proposes a sign system as a measure for rapid seismic evacuation. First, understand the seismic situation based on the video analysis of the earthquake evacuation situation. Second, the need for a sign system to help secure evacuation in earthquake situations was derived. Third, the on-site survey examined the suitability of the Sine system installed in Korea as an escape facility for the earthquake evacuation situation. Based on the video analysis and on-site survey, it was concluded that the installation of escape guidance lamps alone could not induce rapid evacuation in the earthquake situation. In this study, a sign system is proposed to help the use of doors by installing a sign system near an emergency exit light.
