The deregulation of aviation markets in Europe and the United Sates had led airlines to reconfigure their networks into hub-and-spoke systems. Recent trends of "Open Skies" in the Asian aviation market are also expected to prompt the reformation of airlines' networks in the region. A significant connectivity index is a crucial tool for airlines and airport authorities to estimate the degree of hub-and-spoke operations. Therefore, this paper suggests a new index, Continuous Indirect Connectivity Index (CICI), for measuring the coordination of airlines' flight schedules, applying it to the Asian, European and the American aviation markets. CICI consists of three components：(i) temporal connectivity to identify the attractiveness between connection flights, (ii) spatial connectivity to differentiate the attractiveness by de-routing distance with continuous linear function, and (iii) relative intensity to reflect the effect of direct flight frequency on transfer routes. CICI is evaluated to examine a casual relationship through regression analyses with two dependent variables of the number of transfer passengers and transfer rates. Compared with Danesi's index and Doganis' index through evaluation processes, CICI has a higher coefficient value of determination, implying that it explains the relationship between connectivity and transfer passengers more precisely.

Since the allowable bearing capacities of piles in weathered/fractured rock are mainly governed by settlement, the load-displacement behavior of pile should be known accurately. To predict pile head settlement at the design stage, the exact understanding of the load-transfer mechanisms is essential. Therefore, in this research, the load-transfer mechanism of drilled shaft socketed into weathered rock was investigated. For the investigation, five cast-in-place concrete piles with diameters of 1,000 mm were socketed into weathered gneiss. The static axial load tests and the load-transfer measurements were performed to examine the axial resistant behavior of the piles. A comprehensive field/laboratory testing program on weathered rock at the Held test sites was also performed to describe the in situ rock mass conditions quantitatively. And then, the effect of rock mass condition on the load transfer mechanism was investigated. The f-w (side shear resistance-displacement) curve of the pile in moderately weathered rock reached to yielding point at a for millimeter displacements, and after yielding point, the rate of resistance increment dramatically decreased. However, the f-w curve in the highly/completely weathered rock did not show the obvious yielding point, and the resistance gradually increased showing the hyperbolic pattern until relatively high displacement (>15 mm). The q-w (end bearing resistance-displacement) curves showed linear response at least until the base displacement of approximately 10 mm, regardless of rock mass conditions.

On the basis of our previous paper[Bull. Korean Chem. Soc. 1995, 16, 1015], the relative stability, ionization potential, and chemical reaction of the neutral and multiply charged $C_{60}$n ions(n=3+ to 6-) have been investigated by the semi-empirical MNDO method. $C_{60}^{1-}$ has the highest stability. The ionization potential values of the $C_{60}$ ions range from 15.31 eV of $C_{60}^{2+}$ to -13.01 eV of $C_{60}^{6-}$. These values show a linear relationship according to charges. The average IP per charge is 3.15 eV from our calculations and 3.22 eV from the linear function of IP. A charge- or electron-transfer reaction of $C_{60}^{n+}$ will only occur if the ionization potential of any guest molecule is lower than the electron affinity of the host $C_{60}^{n+}$. If the energy gap between ionization potential and electron affinity, ${\Delta}_{IP-EA}$, is high, charge-transfer reactions arise by the charge-controlled effect. However, if ${\Delta}_{IP-EA}$ is low, electron-transfer reactions arise by the frontier-controlled effect.

In order to develop the weir with high reaeration efficiency, the reaeration experiments at linear weir, ogee spillway type weir, and labyrinth weirs were conducted and the results were compared. The effect of roughened crest was also analyzed. It was found from the experiments that the oxygen transfer efficiency at the ogee spillway type weir was the lowest and that at the linear weir was second lowest among the weirs used in the experiments. It was also revealed that the reaeration efficiencies of the labyrinth weirs increase as the included angles become smaller. The roughened crest which causes the disintegration of overflow was found to increase the reaeration efficiency significantly. On the basis of the results of the experiments, the pilot construction of the labyrinth welt with included angle of 30 degree was made. The labyrinth weir was made up by assembling the frame and then filling the ripraps into the frame. The ripraps were exposed at the crest to split the overflow. The average value of oxygen transfer efficiency observed at the pilot weir was 0.18. It is expected that the results from the experimental study and the field data of the pilot weir would serve for the improvement of water quality by the weirs with high reaeration efficiency.

This paper proposes controller design algorithms for a ceramic soldering iron temperature control system, and reports their effectiveness in a control experiment. Because the responses of the ceramic soldering iron temperature to the control input are non-linear and very slow, precise modeling and controller design is difficult. In this study, the temperature characteristics of a ceramic soldering iron are represented by TSK fuzzy models consisting of TSK fuzzy rules. In the fuzzy rules, the premise variable is the control input and the consequences are the transfer functions. The transfer functions in the fuzzy model were obtained from the step input responses. As the responses of the ceramic soldering iron temperature are very slow, it is difficult to obtain the complete step input responses. This paper proposes a genetic algorithm to obtain the transfer functions from an incomplete step input responses, and showed its effectiveness in examples. This paper also reports a fuzzy controller design method from the TSK fuzzy model and examples. The proposed methods were applied to the temperature control experiments of ceramic iron. The TSK fuzzy model consisted of 7 TSK fuzzy rules, and the consequences were PI controllers. The experimental results of the proposed fuzzy PI controller were superior to the linear controller and were as good as in previous studies using a fuzzy PID controller.

The sliding wear behavior of ultra high molecular weight polyethylene (UHMWPE) was examined on a novel low temperature degradation-free zirconia/alumina composite material and conventional alumina and zirconia ceramics used for femoral head in total hip joint replacement. The wear of UHMWPE pins against these ceramic disks was evaluated by performing linear reciprocal sliding and repeat pass rotational sliding tests for one million cycles in bovine serum. The weight loss of polyethylene against the novel low temperature degradation-free zirconia/alumina composite disks was much less than those against conventional ceramics for all tests. The mean weight loss of the polyethylene pins was more io the linear reciprocal sliding test than in the repeal pass rotational sliding lest for all kinds of disk materials. Neither the coherent transfer film nor the surface damage was observed on the surface of the novel zirconia/alumina composite disks during the test. The observed r,'stilts indicated that the wear of the polyethylene was closely related to contacting materials and kinematic motions. In conclusion, the novel zirconia/alumina composite leads the least wear of polyethylene among the tested ceramics and demonstrates the potential as lhe alternative materials for femoral head in total hip joint replacement.

In this paper, a stress transfer mechanism between near surface-mounted (NSM) fiber reinforced polymer (FRP) plate and concrete was investigated and a reliable analytical procedure for it was presented by using bilinear bond-slip model simulating the bond behavior of NSM FRP plate. As a result, critical values in the bi-linear model such as maximum shear strength, slip at that time and failure slip at the initiation of softening de-bonding were suggested for being used in the differential equation considering he interfacial characteristic between NSM FRP and concrete. Also, it was found that the bond-slip behavior could be suitably redicted by using the proposed procedure even in the case of various bond lengths from the comparison with bond test result.

Effectiveness of corrective machining algorithm is verified experimentally in this paper by performing corrective machina work practically to single side and double sides hydrostatic tables. Lapping is applied as machining method. Machining information is calculated from measured motion errors by applying the algorithm, without information on rail profile. It is possible to acquire 0.13$\mu$m of linear motion error, 1.40arcsec of angular motion error in the case of single side table, and 0.07$\mu$m of linear motion error, 1.42arcsec of angular motion error in the case of double sides table. The experiment is performed by an unskilled person after he experienced a little of preliminary machining training. Experimental results show that corrective machining algorithm is very effective, and anyone can improve the accuracy of hydrostatic table by using the algorithm.
