It is important to design the pavement thickness considering heavy-duty traffic loads, which can cause excessive stress and strain in the pavement. Port-rear roads and industrial roads have many problems due to early stress in pavement because these have a higher ratio of heavy loads than general roads such as national roads and expressways. Internationally, composite pavement has been widely applied in pavement designs in heavy-duty areas. Composite pavement is established as an economic pavement type that can increase the design life by nearly double compared to that of existing pavement while also decreasing maintenance and user costs. This study suggests a thickness design method for composite pavement using roller-compacted concrete as a base material to ensure long-term serviceability in heavy-duty areas such as port-rear roads and industrial roads. A three-dimensional finite element analysis was conducted to investigate the mechanical behavior and the long-term pavement performance ultimately to suggest a thickness design method that considers changes in the material properties of the roller-compacted concrete (RCC) base layer. In addition, this study presents a user-friendly catalog design method for RCC-base composite pavement considering the concept of linear damage accumulation for each container trailer depending on the season.

FPSO is widely used to develop deep sea oil fields and HHI has constructed ten(10) FPSOs. During these constructions, relevant structural design criteria such as yielding, buckling, fatigue, collision and impact strength were applied to verify structural safety. To apply the buckling strength evaluation for structures, the critical buckling stresses and applied stresses of relevant panels should be calculated. The plate and stiffened panels are to be idealized, which are needed much time and efforts by designers. Therefore, program development is necessary in order to evaluate the buckling strength conveniently and accurately. In this study, the buckling strength assessment system by using offshore code, DNV-RP-C201 was developed under MSC/PATRAN, pre-post program of finite element method. Graphic user interface program is written in MSC/PATRAN PCL functions. Source program to evaluate the buckling strength is developed in FORTRAN programming languages. The developed program is verified by comparing with the results of the Nauticus Hull developed by DNV Classification Society, and applied to the marine construction project conducted by Hyundai Heavy Industries LTD.

Beta-test is a essential step to verify a online-game developing. Through beta-test, we can find out some problems related to game-balancing, game-play, user behaviors and so on. And the game developing can be modified to make up a weak-point. However, a beta-test in online game development is a very time consuming and heavy expense work. Therefore, in this study, the simulation model for growth-balancing and battle among characters was proposed in order to reduce the duration and cost for beta-test. And it was applied to Travia online game successfully.

This study attempted to empirically analyze how the use of portal news is related with user's social credibility levels. 1100 subjects were sampled and online-surveyed. The amount of news usage and level of social credibility were measured respectively by the PNRBS(Portal News Readership Behavior Score) and SCI(Social Credibility Index) which were developed by the researcher. The results show that the relationship between scocial credibility and portal new use is not a linear but some V type. In terms of the mean score of social credibility index, non-portal news user is the highest while the light user is the lowest and the heavy user is the second highest.

In this study, the effect of amount of use of mobile game (time of use, consumption cost) on the perceived satisfaction level (perceived enjoyment, service quality, and price) of game and commitment is to be observed. If the amount of game use is high, are the satisfaction level and commitment of game high as well? Is there any factor of negative effect on game commitment? As a result of study, among the mobile game use behaviors subjected in this study, higher the amount of use and consumption cost, more the level of satisfaction level and commitment on game. This study is to verify and analyze the high level of perceived satisfaction and commitment on mobile game by users with high amount of use to expand and to discuss the base of study of heavy mobile game user and heavy digital game user.

Advances in e-commerce enable consumers to shop efficiently for fashion products in global markets in addition, the market size of purchasing directly from foreign websites are also increasing. This study investigates the effects of hedonic and utilitarian shopping values on the continuous use intention of online cross-border shopping. Curiosity and self-efficacy were introduced as mediating variables between shopping values and user intentions. A web-based survey is conducted on female consumers, who have experiences to buy fashion products by online cross-border shopping. A total of 472 responses were collected from a panel of online survey firms. Data are analyzed using confirmatory factor analysis, structural equation modeling, and multi-group SEM by AMOS 21.0. According to the results of the structural equation model test, hedonic value affected continuous use intention of online cross-border shopping as mediated by curiosity and self-efficacy; in addition, utilitarian value influenced self-efficacy, which mediated relations between the utilitarian value and the continuous use intention. The research model was also tested to compare heavy users and light users of online cross-border shopping. For heavy users, the effect of hedonic value on curiosity was significantly stronger than for light users. Several implications are suggested based on the results.

Scaffolding system in the membrane LNG carrier is a steel structure composed of various pipe-shaped members connected by specific coupling devices. In this study, the automatic design program for scaffolding system in membrane LNG carrier has been developed. It enables user to arrange members easily considering design constraints and input variables such as size of tank, position of legs, level height and so on. In addition to that, it creates finite element analysis model with loading and boundary conditions automatically and carries out structural analysis. With post processor based a state-of-the-art computer graphics, users can easily check the results of structural analysis and make a report for structural safety of scaffolding system.

Mobile phone becomes composite product which the high technological multimedia functions of a Digital camera, MP3, MP4, Blue-tooth, DMB over basic functions of a calling and 3M3. By the view of user, many functions give a heavy burden rather than supporting convenient function itself because it is complex for user to use it. We want to evaluate how users feel using mobile phone according to age, comparing use frequency and necessity. So survey is tried to figure out the difference between use frequency and necessity by dividing three groups into 20s and 30s and 50s. As a result, difference of use frequency and necessity for functions of mobile phone between 20s and 30s and 50s. And the other users have the difference. Consequently, mobile phone development according to age is necessary to satisfy user's desire, evaluating elements research of user preference. We hope this paper can contribute to mobile phone development as a basic guidance.

In this research we present a new model, PLCM(Cort-Logistics Chain Management), which can cooperate each other in the port-logistic industry that occupy a heavy rain in the Northeast Asian economy. PLCM(Port-Logistics Chain Management) synthetically manages the logistic chain and information laying stress on the port. Unlike SCM, which hat a vertical relationship between the main groups to cooperate each other, PLCM has a horizontal relationchip between the ports to achieve common purpose and to improve their whole competitive power. In this research we present a concept of PLCM and a specific plan to develop a system for PLCM targetting Pusan, Shanghai, and Tokyo Port which occupy a heavy rain in the Northeast Asian port industry. This system is composed of integrated information system and EDI document exchange system according to the special quality of user's request information. And in order to prove its feasibility and validity, the case study sailing from Shanghai to Busan has been applied to this study.
