We designed a track circuit of Tag in-tag out type that can be used for light rails and monorails. This method is called RFID-Tag and it literally uses RFID-Tag and replaces a fixed track circuit and implements a moving block. The distance between RFID-Tags is set to the length of a train and thus a train is always in contact with one of the tags. A train runs in RFID-Tag in -RFID-Tag out type at all times and the distance between trains can be precisely controlled through the application of a moving block combined with the basic principle of a fixed block, which enables the continuous speed control and enhances the satisfaction of passengers. When constructing a track circuit using RFID-Tag the Tag in-tag out brings us the cost reduction and is more economical than the existing fixed track circuit in that sense and easy for installation and maintenance. The wireless communication between onboard and wayside makes the continuous control possible and can improve the control capacity of ATP/ATO by the implementation of a moving block on top of a fixed one.

The failure of slope can cause remarkable damage to either human life or infrastructures. Stabilizing piles are widely utilized to reinforce slope as a slip-resistance structure. The workability of pile-stabilized slopes is affected by various parameters. In this study, the performance of earth slope reinforced with piles and the behavior of piles under static load, by shear reduction strength method using the finite difference software (FLAC^3D) has been investigated. Parametric studies were conducted to investigate the role of pile length (L), different pile distances from each other (S/D), pile head conditions (free and fixed head condition), the effect of sand density (loose, medium, and high-density soil) on the pile behavior, and the performance of pile-stabilized slopes. The performance of the stabilized slopes was analyzed by evaluating the factor of safety, lateral displacement and bending moment of piles, and critical slip mechanism. The results depict that as L increased and S/D reduced, the performance of slopes stabilized with pile gets better by raising the soil density. The greater the amount of bending moment at the shallow depths of the pile in the fixed pile head indicates the effect of the inertial force due to the structure on the pile performance.

In this study, the governing equations of motion for multi-cracked nonuniform nanobeam based on nonlocal elasticity theory and embedded in an elastic medium were derived. DTM(differential transformation method) was applied to vibration analysis of multi-cracked nonuniform nanobeam based on nonlocal elasticity theory and embedded in an elastic medium. The non-dimensional natural frequencies of this nanobeam were obtained for eoe, crack stiffness and elastic medium stiffness with various boundary conditions. The results obtained by this method was compared with previous works and showed the close agreement between two methods. The important conclusions obtained by this study are as follows : 1. As the length of nanobeam is shorter, the effect of scale coefficient is greater. 2. The locations of crack change non-dimensional natural frequency, In the case of fixed-fixed ends, the non-dimensional natural frequency is the biggest in the first crack location of 0.6L of nanobeam length, and the smallest in both ends. In the case of fixed-free ends, the closer the location of first crack go tho the free end, the bigger the non-dimensional natural frequency. 3. As the stiffness of crack is greater, the non-dimensional natural frequency is smaller, And the effect of crack stiffness is similar on both fixed-free ends and fixed-fixed ends. 4. The bigger the stiffness of elastic medium, the greater the non - dimensional natural frequency.

A peer-to-peer model is very useful in solving the server link bottleneck problem of a client-server model. In this work, we discuss the problems of distributing multimedia content over peer-to-peer network. We focus on two problems in peer-to-peer media content distribution systems. The first is the transmission scheduling of the media data for a multi-source streaming session. We present a sophisticated scheduling scheme called fixed-length slotted scheduling, which results in minimum buffering delay. The second problem is on the fast distribution of media content in the peer-to-peer system that is self-growing. We propose a mechanism accelerating the speed at which the system's streaming ca-pacity increases, called FAST.

This study is aimed to investigate the dimension feature of the plane about the economic type farming village Korean-style house progressed in the Chonnam province and Longitudinal feature and tries to reveal this feature through the comparing analysis with the traditional house positioned in the Chonnam province. This result is as follows. First, the main feature in plane is the setting up the column interval in front when comparing the house of Happy Village and traditional house. In case house of the Happy Village, after firstly fixed the limited scales, sizes are determined, this is due to control the set up in the post interval in this in range. Second, in the case of the traditional houses, 0.68 ratio of the building height about the side length and 0.19 ratio of the eaves extrusion about the side length are consistent ratio about dimensions. However, there is no consistent ratio or fixed law, the various dimensions show up in case of the house of Happy Village. It will be inevitable that space of the post increases for the convenience of life of the modern people. However, it has to sublate and to disregard as the identity of the morphological shown up in the Korean-style house the more various construction standards will need to be presented.

Asynchronous Transfer Model(ATM) has a fixed-length packet transport scheme. It is one of promising proposals in Broadband ISDN(B-ISDN). Since the packet length is fixed, it can be potentially to perform the various service to user. In this paper, a queueing model for an ATM Multiplexer loaded by the Continuous Bit Rate(CBR) traffic and the bursty traffic sources is analyzed. The queueing system has a finite buffer size. The cell loss probabilities with the simple and recurcive form for a performance measures of ATM multiplexer are derived, and are also evaluated through numerical examples. The results of this study may be used as guidelines in buffer design problems and performance analysis of ATM multiplexing system.

Dynamic response of buried pipelines both in the axial and the transverse directions on concrete pipe and steel pipe, FRP pipe were investigated through a free vibration analysis. End boundary conditions considered herein consist of free ends, fixed ends, and fixed-free ends in the axial and the transverse direction. Guided ends, simply supported ends, and supported-guided ends were added to the transverse direction. The buried pipeline was regarded as a beam on an elastic foundation and the ground displacement of sinusoidal wave was applied to it. Natural frequencies and mode shapes were determined according to end boundary conditions. In addition, the effects of parameters on the natural frequency were evaluated. The natural frequency is affected most significantly by the soil stiffness and the length of the buried pipelines. The natural frequency increases as the soil stiffness increases while it decreases as the length of the buried pipeline increases. Such behavior appears to be dominant in the axial direction rather than in the transverse direction of the buried pipelines.

Optimization of the asymmetric trapezoidal fin with various upper lateral surface slope is made using a two-dimensional analytic method. For the fixed fin base height, the optimum heat loss, fin length and effectiveness are represented as inner fluid convection characteristic number, fin base thickness, fin base height, fin shape factor and ambient convection characteristic number. For this optimum procedure, the optimum heat loss is defined as 95% of the maximum heat loss from the fin. One of the results shows that optimum heat loss and effectiveness seems independent of the fin shape factor while optimum fin length decreases almost linearly as the fin shape factor increases.

In this work, we studied the effects of the moisture contents of cut tobacco on loose end of cigarettes. The loose end of the cigarette groups decreased with the increase of moisture contents of the cut tobacco and especially the loose end of A and C groups decreased to $31\%\;and\;52\%$ with the increase of $1\%$ moisture contents. $A-13.5\%\;and\;B-14.0\%\;and\; C-14.0\%$ moisture samples showed the increase of the weight ratio of cut tobacco over 1.4mm cut length but the decrease under 1.4mm cut length. We concluded that the main reasons were regarded to reduction of small fragment tobaccos caused by increase of moisture contents and exception of air-suction transport of tobaccos to cigarette making machine. In spite of the moisture increase of cut tobaccos under fixed EPD(encapsulated pressure drop), the hardness of Band C sample groups were maintained constantly except A group. This result means that under fixed EPD, the weight of cut tobacco in cigarette rods increases to compensate the reduction of pressure drop by moisture increase of cut tobaccos.

Dual bell nozzle is a type of altitude compensation nozzle, which is a nozzle that minimize the losses of the specific impulse at the off-design point of a typical bell nozzle. In this paper, numerical computations are performed to understand the transition characteristics of dual bell nozzles with fixed expansion ratios. The major design variables are the length of extension and the angle of inflection. As the length of the extension increased, the transition altitude and transition duration increased and the reduction of the thrust coefficient decreased. As the angle of inflection increased, the transition altitude and transition duration decreased and the reduction of the thrust coefficient increased.
