The importance of efficient container transportation becomes more significant each year due to the constant growth of the global marketplace, and studies focusing on shipping efficiency are becoming increasingly important. In this paper, we propose an approach for vehicle scheduling that decreases the number of vehicles required for freight commerce by analyzing and scheduling optimal routes. Container transportation can be classified into round and single-trip transportation, and each vehicle can be linked in a specific order based on the vehicle state after completing an order. We develop a mathematical model to determine the required number of vehicles with optimal routing, and a heuristic algorithm to perform vehicle scheduling for many orders in a significantly shorter duration. Finally, we tested some numerical examples and compared the developed model and the heuristic algorithm. We also developed a decision support system that can schedule vehicles based on the heuristic algorithm.

This paper presents a direct thrust control scheme for permanent magnet linear synchronous motor(PMLSM) by using digital signal processor(DSP). And a simulation method for the direct thrust control of a permanent magnet linear synchronous motor using the equivalent circuit is presented. The detent force that was obtained by cubic spline method is considered in the simulation. Thrust correction coefficient is utilized to estimate actual thrust on the direct thrust control, which considers the longitudinal end effect due to the finite core length of the permanent magnet linear synchronous motor. The motor self inductance, the initial flux linkage by the permanent magnet is calculated in advance by the finite element analysis, and then the direct control simulation is carried out. As the results, thrust, current and speed are shwon.

In this paper, a new type of electromagnetic actuator, an electro magnetic force driving actuator (EMFA) is developed and analyzed, applicable to air circuit breaker (ACB). Transient analysis is performed in order to obtain the dynamic characteristics of the EMFA. The distribution of static magnetic flux is obtained using the finite element method (FEM). The coupled problems of electrics and mechanics governing equations are solved using the time difference method (TDM). Also according to interception rate of each contactor, investigation about load condition of contactor spring is conducted, applied it to three-link system. And comparison about dynamic characteristics of three-link simulation and experiment data are performed.

External linkage type spine motion analyzer was developed for measuring relative trunk motion respect to the pelvis. A special program for calculation of the relative angular motion and graphical display were also developed. The developed device assured its accuracy and conveniency after application to 15 normal volunteers and 18 patients after fixation and decompression surgery. Compare to the normal subjects, patients shows different angular motion especially in the angular acceleration.

Novel polysilamethylenosilanes (PSMS) were prepared by Wurtz type co-condensation of various mixtures of 2,4,4,6-tetrachloro-2,6-dimethyl-2,4,6-trisilahept ane (TSH) and dimethyldichlorosilane (D). When TSH was incorporated more than 25 mole%, PSMS polymers were soluble in common organic solvents probably due to the polycarbosilane linkage brought from TSH. The molecular weights of the polymer were measured by gel permeation chromatography and showed higher molecular weight with high TSH content. The thermal gravimetric residues increased as TSH contents increased. These properties suggested that PSMS polymers could be useful as ceramic precursors for silicon carbide.

Star characters play a key role in the background of contents that secure global competitiveness. In this study, we study the growth factors and transitional forms of Nintendo Super Mario Bros. and suggest the direction of nurturing Korean star characters. As a result of the analysis of Super Mario Bros., it was possible to derive the growth factors of Originality, repeatability, Continuity, Pertain, and Star Fame and the transition result of step development method. Robot Taekwon V was presented as a reference model while Korean game characters with global competitiveness were excavated. Robot Taekwon V, which combines the features of friendly, unique, symbolism, and narrative, could be used to present a development model of the type of jump development. In the jump development model, character development and Upbringing, diversification of genre, pioneering of new markets combined with new technology, and fostering of characters through linkage with other industries were presented.

Cars have become a necessity in modern life. It is widely used to transport people or products to a destination conveniently. However, the addition of a navigation service that provides route information and more makes driving more convenient and safer. Recent developments in the mobile app ecosystem encourages people to adopt not only an installation-type car navigation, but also a mobile app navigation, supporting connected car concepts. It should be noted that mobile apps with mobile Internet can be a significant linkage between information acquired online and offline business. This study demonstrates the impact of the app use experience for a driver in the context of applying artificial intelligence service. As a result, the introduction of artificial intelligence services has a statistically significant moderating effect on the use of mobile navigation apps. This seminal research is valuable as it evaluates the role of artificial intelligence applied to mobile navigation apps.

A new type of auto-rotary PM mechanical flux-varying PM machine (ARPMMFVPMM) is proposed in this paper, which can overcome the problem where the air-gap magnetic field of a PM machine is difficult to freely adjust. The topology structures of the machine and the mechanical flux-adjusting device are given. In addition, the operation principle of flux-adjusting is analyzed in detail. Furthermore, the deformation of a spring with the speed variation is obtained by virtual prototype technology. Electromagnetic characteristics including the flux distribution, air gap flux density, flux linkage, electromagnetic-magnetic-force (EMF), and flux weakening ability are computed by 2D finite element method (FEM). Results show that the machine has some advantages such as the good field control ability.

This study examines the linkage between Korean wave, corporate image and country image, perceived quality of products made in the country. To close a gap lacking empirical studies on impacts of corporate image to country image and to further understand impacts of Korean wave, this study conducts survey over Chinese consumers to test the effects of corporate image, Korean wave to the country image, and verify on its effects to perceived quality of the products made in the country. The results show that both corporate image and Korean wave influences to form positive country image of Korea, and perceived quality of Korean made products. The size of effects varies upon products type and stimuli. This study could provide policy makers insights how to promote country image as well as support SMEs for developing overseas markets. Also, it could give marketers valuable implications to develop effective global marketing strategies using cultural assets, country image and salient corporate image.

The alkali-soluble glucan of the yeast cell wall contains $\beta-(1,3)-$ and (1,6)-D-linkages and is known to systemically enhance the immune system. In the previous study [6], in order to isolate cell wall mutants, a wild-type strain was mutagenized by exposure to ultraviolet light, and the mutants were then selected via treatment with laminarinase $(endo-\beta-(1,3)-D-glucanase)$. The mass of alkali- and water-soluble glucans produced by the mutant was measured to be 33.8 mg/g of the dry mass of the yeast cell. Our results showed that the mutants generated the amount of alkali-soluble glucan 10-fold higher than that generated by the wild-type. Structural analysis showed that the alkali-soluble glucan from the mutants was associated with a higher degree of $\beta-(1,6)-D-linkage$ than was observed in conjunction with the wild-type. Yeast cell wall $\beta-glucan$ was shown to interact with macrophages via receptors, thereby inducing the release of tumor necrosis factor alpha $(TNF-\alpha)$ and nitric oxide. Alkali-soluble $\beta-glucans$, both from water-soluble and water-insoluble glucan, exhibited a higher degree of macrophage activity with regard to both the secretion of tumor necrosis factor alpha $(TNF-\alpha)$ and nitric oxide and direct phagocytosis, than did the positive control ($1{\mu}g$ of lipopolysaccharide).
