This study, for learners using online and offline tools, understood the structural relationship of user experience of smart learning app on continuous use intention through the technology acceptance model, and classified the learning type characteristics. In addition, based on the experience of using the smart learning app, we explored ways to improve the design of the user experience design for learning tools and contents. For this purpose, the usage perception of 84 middle and high school students of the developed smart learning learning app was investigated after using it for 2 months, and the data were analyzed using the PLS structural equation technique. The main results of this study are as follows. First, system and content user experience had a significant effect on perceived usability and perceived ease of use, and the effect on continued use intention through attitude was significant. Second, there was a significant difference in the effect of system user experience on perceived usefulness in multi-group comparative analysis and gender group. In the preferred learning group, it was the path from perceived ease of use and perceived usefulness to attitude and intention to continue using that showed a significant path difference. Third, as a result of classifying the most commonly used learning types by the multidimensional scale method, the types separated into low dimensions were found to be four types: offline sync type, online sync type, ubiquitous learning type, and self-direct learning type.

Rapid industrialization and urbanization caused by the high economic growth of the country requires optimization of land usage as well as the expansion of underground space. Therefore the construction of large and deep basements is inevitable in built up areas where the braced excavation for earth retaining structures may create many problems such as settlement and damages of nearby buildings and underground utilities. In this work, some of major influential factors concerning the stability of braced excavation are investigated and the results are compared with the field observation results. The ground water table, applied strut forces, horezontal wall displacement, infilling materials in the rock joints were found to be the most critical factors influencing the stability of braced walls constructed in the layered ground. Magnituide and type of the wall deformation was closely related to the pattern of the surface settlement. The stability of braced walls are described in terms of strut forces.

Geosynthetics are commonly used for filtering, layer separations, drainages, cutoffs, and reinforcements. In highway constructions, geotextile mats have been used for the purposes of vehicle trafficability, separations and embankment reinforcements. Geosynthetics are utilized as prefabricated vertical drains and also used as horizontal drainage layers substituted for the sand mat. Geogrids, essential element of reinforced retaining walls, are sometimes spread under the highway pavement. Besides various usage mentioned above, many type of them are also used as drainage of backfill in culverts and bridge abutments. In this paper, problems of specifications and regulations concerning mostly used geotextiles are specifically dealt with from the practical aspects of field engineering and efforts are given upon improvement of them. Especially, relevant sections of "Standard Specifications for the Highway Construction by Korea Highway Corporation"are being revised and these are introduced in detail.

In this paper, we presented the prosody analysis results of five selected words according to its usage in a sentence, i.e.. the part of sentence (PoS) while changing the type of sentences such as simple, conjugate, and complex sentences. The selected five Korean words were 'U-Ri-Na-Ra' 'Bul-Kuk-Sa', 'Uh-Muh-Ni', 'Han-Ra-San', and 'Cang-A-Ji'. These five words were used as a subjective, an objective, and an adverb in each simple, conjugate, and complex sentence. The pitch, energy, and duration of each word were then analyzed and used for the synthetic speech prosody Improvement. The subjective test on the prosody improvement showed that more than $50\%$ of our listeners are affirmative to the prosody Improvement of the synthetic speech.

The periodic technical vehicle inspection is to prevent the accident through the finding and fixing the defects of the vehicle. The periodic technical vehicle inspection in Korea was studied for assessing the adequacy of the inspection frequency. The inspection frequencies of many countries including EU, USA and Japan were compared. The average mileages by the vehicle usage and type were represented. The warranty period and recommended replacement period of parts of the domestic auto makers was studied. Currently, the inspection frequency for the periodic technical vehicle inspection in Korea is appropriate. The pass-fail rate and the cost-benefit analysis for the periodic technical inspection in Korea will be needed in the decision making process for the inspection frequency.

Purpose: The current study analyzed trends in thermal insulation performance with aging, and condensation characteristics caused by the former. Method: Thermal insulation and condensation prevention performance of an architecture were assessed using Temperature Difference Ration Inside, or TDRi. Subjects of this quantitative analysis in thermal insulation performance change due to aging included recently constructed apartments and aged apartments older than 40 years. Time series comparison and analysis were conducted to observed changes in the thermal insulation performance and condensation characteristics. Result: Analysis showed that wall insulation performance degraded with aging regardless of fortified insulating material usage or insulating material type, which caused increased danger of condensation. In addition, when fortified insulating material was installed on the connection between the walls, insulation performance degradation was lower compared to cases in which fortified materials were not used. In all cases from 1 to 10, the rate of thermal insulation performance degradation increased after 20 years of aging.
