In this study, the performance of composite safety barriers was evaluated through computer simulation. A composite safety barrier of SB4 grade was modeled. The MAT58 material model provided by LS-DYNA software was used to model composite material. The performance of composite material varies according to fiber, resin type, and fiber direction. Polyurethane resin and glass fiber were used. The performance of three different stacking designs was evaluated by carrying out vehicle impact simulation. The performance evaluation based on the vehicle crash manual includes the structural strength performance, the passenger protection performance, the vehicle behavior after crash, scattering of the guardrail. As the result of the finite element analysis, the barrier composed of the more transverse direction fibers shows the better performance on the impact simulation.

A thermal barrier coating (TBC) has been widely applied to machine components working under high temperature as a thermal insulator owing to its critical financial and safety benefits to the industry. However, the nondestructive evaluation of TBC damage is not easy since sensing of the microscopic change that occurs on the TBC is required during an evaluation. We designed an eddy current probe for evaluating damage on a TBC based on the finite element method (FEM) and validated its performance through an experiment. An FEM analysis predicted the sensitivity of the probe, showing that impedance change increases as the TBC thermally degrades. In addition, the effect of the magnetic shield concentrating magnetic flux density was also observed. Finally, experimental validation showed good agreement with the simulation result.

Evaluation learning based on code testing is becoming a popular solution in programming education via Online judge(OJ). In the recent past, many papers have been published on how to detect plagiarism through source code similarity analysis to support OJ. However, deep learning-based research to support automated tutoring is insufficient. In this paper, we propose Input & Output side FiLM models to predict whether the input code will pass or fail. By applying Feature-wise Linear Modulation(FiLM) technique to GRU, our model can learn combined information of Java byte codes and problem information that it tries to solve. On experimental design, a balanced sampling technique was applied to evenly distribute the data due to the occurrence of asymmetry in data collected by OJ. Among the proposed models, the Input Side FiLM model showed the highest performance of 73.63%. Based on result, it has been shown that students can check whether their codes will pass or fail before receiving the OJ evaluation which could provide basic feedback for improvements.

Underestimation of the capacity can have serious economic consequences, as deficient bridges must be posted, repaired or replaced. Accurate prediction of bridge behavior may allow for more bridges to remain in service with or without minor repairs. The presented research is focused on the reliability evaluation of the actual load carrying capacity of existing bridges based on the field testing. Reliability analysis is performed on 17 previously tested bridges. Bridges are first evaluated based on the code specified values and design resistance. However, after the field testing program, it is possible to apply the experimental results into the bridge reliability evaluation procedures. The girder distribution factors obtained from the tests are also applied in the reliability calculation. The results indicate that the reliability indices of selected bridges can be significantly increased due to the reduction of uncertainties without sacrificing the safety of structures, by including the result of field measurement data into calculation.

This study on condominium complex will adopt the quantitative assessment of the influence on the environment throughout the entire life cycle of buildings. This paper applies input-out analysis in order to analyse embodied energy regarding input of materials at material production phase. Also, it calculates environment load at use and demolition and destruction Phases of buildings as analysing energy consumption. The study categorises environment load as six impact categories and undertakes environmental impact evaluation. The consequence shows that the environment load of multi-unit dwelling takes up 88.2% out of the entire environment load of condominium complex. Also, as a result of analyzing the environmental impact of the life cycle of condominium buildings, it was found that such environmental impact comprised of about 11.96% of all industries in Korea that had an environmental impact.

This study was performed to determine the usefulness of scanpath similarity analysis as one of new web usability testing. The 5 websites of public institutions were used and 15 students participated. First of all, eye movements were tracked and visual appeal ratings were measured as participants freely viewed each website for 3 seconds. Subsequently in continuously tracking the eye movements we asked the participants to perform 17 missions. Finally, in interview the participants rated on satisfaction, awareness, and mission difficulty. Results of this study showed that scanpath similarity had a significant relationship with both the visual appeal ratings(first impression) and the satisfaction. In other words, higher the visual appeal ratings were related to higher scanpath similarity. This result showed that measurement such as scanpath similarity of eye movements could become an objective index for usability testing instead of subjective evaluation such as the satisfaction. We discussed possibility that the usability testing by using the scanpath similarity with both fixation and duration on eye movements will find more appropriately inference on observers' experiences in websites.

Uncertainty in large-scale tourism development is the main reason of the delay on the project. The purpose of this study is to identify the status and effect of this large-scale tourism development project. Huge amount of funds has to be invested prior to the development of this project and with high uncertainty of successful development, the procedure is the most important factor of this project. Therefore, under the basis of these assumptions, we operated a PLS regression analysis to see any factors that has influence during the procedure of the project. The result of the PLS regression analysis resulted that among all of the factors, the participation and role of regional community is the highest priority. In order to lead large-scale tourism development to success is to listen to the ideas of various project-related personnels and form a public - private partnership for evaluation of the project.

This research is accompanied with Tanaka's works in order to consider the result from the evaluation of his works through an impression analysis and his expression trendency. The nine posters are chosen for appraisal among a series of Kanseino Poster which Ikko Tanaka drew under the sponsorship of Sankei Newspaper. The reason why those posters are selected is that the structure is strong and simple comparatively. Tanaka Ikko's poster works can be generously explained with three factors through a factor analysis. Considering his works in all cluster analysis, in the first group, he makes a good use of traditional materials and his works have a powerful image. In the second group, a geometric figure is arranged simply and a modern image is strong. In the third group, the traditional materials express a modern image. As mentioned above, the mood of his works can be summarized as follows. $\ulcorner$His works have updated the Japanese image from traditional to modern$\lrcorner$.

The entrance and the exit structures of tunnels are often constructed on unfavorably soft soils (colluvial soils) as a result of environment-friendly design highlighted in recent years. For construction of such a tunnel, it is essential to secure sufficient bearing capacity of the lining supports as well as that of the surrounding soils. In this regard, H-shape steel-ribs with high stiffness are commonly used for lining supports. However, it was the past convention to ignore the effect of the steel-ribs in numerical evaluation of the structural safety. This study is intended to show how the shotcrete stresses are relieved by the steelribs, on the basis of numerical data obtained from 3-dimensional finite element analysis. The effect of steel ribs to shotcrete stresses is examined at different levels of application rates, i.e., 0%, 50%, 75% and 100% of the total stiffness. The data obtained from numerical analysis was compared with in-situ measurement. The effect of st eel ribs to shotcrete stresses was verified and appropriate total stiffness was proposed in the range of 50%~75%.
