Various schemes of transportation demand management(TDM) to discourage the use of cars and enhance public transit performance have been implemented in large cities. Nevertheless, policy effects in reducing car have not been satisfactory. Car-dependent travelers who tend to keep driving cars regardless of the change of the trip circumstances as such increase of travel time and cost according to car use or improvement of public transit service may be due to not according to utility reflecting mode-specific impedance and their own socio-economic characteristics. In this study, travelers were classified into four groups by their choice frequency of private car and public transit in unspecified multiple trip(car-dependent, car-choice, public transit-choice, public transit-dependent class). And the characteristics of each group were comparative analyzed. The results show that the group of a higher car-dependent is a higher priority on convenience and comfortability of the car when making decisions and the group of a lower of car-dependent is likely to change to public transit.

To improve the breeding efficiency of oriental pear, the inheritance of major fruit traits were analyzed using 4,035 seedlings of 15 cross combinations combined with 13 cultivars. Yearly variation of parental cultivars, broad-sense heritability of the traits, and frequency of seedlings with commercially acceptable characteristics by the mid-parent values were studied. Despite the heritabilities of traits related with pear the fruit texture were different depending on cross combination, the average narrow-sense heritability ($h^2$) for firmness, flesh hardness, flesh density and grit were over 0.6, a relatively high value. However fruit firmness showed different heritability among the cross combination and its value of cross combination between 'Niitaka' and 'Choju' was very low as 0.11. Positive correlation was not observed on fresh hardness, fresh density and grit but observed on firmness between mid-parent value and average value of offspring. Regression of offspring on firmness, fresh hardness, fresh density and grit between mid-parent value and average value of offspring were 0.778, 0.343, -0.273, 0.313, respectively. Frequency distributions of fruit texture in 15 cross combinations of pear seedling was influenced by parental characteristics. When fruit firmness was estimated as low, low ${\times}$ high and high ${\times}$ high values in parental fruits, firmness in their offspring exhibited low, medium and high, respectively. In addition, when parental grit by sensory evaluation were light ${\times}$ light and light-medium ${\times}$ medium-heavy, most of offsprings showed light and medium grit, respectively.

This study was designed to evaluate the effect of a rice-based diet on body weight and serum lipid levels. Thirty male C57BL/6 mice were randomly divided into three groups and fed a high-fat diet (HFD), rice-based diet (RD), or bread-based diet (BD) for five weeks. Our results showed that the RD group had a significantly lower final body weight, although there was no significant difference in daily food intake among the groups. There was a reduction in body weight gains, adipose tissues weight, and adipocyte size of epididymal adipose tissue in the RD group (p<0.05). Also, serum triglycerides and total cholesterol in the RD group were significantly decreased compared to the BD group. RD also reduced fasting glucose and insulin levels. These results indicate that the intake of RD attenuates increases in body weight and serum lipid concentrations in mice, suggesting its benefits for the dietary control of obesity and hyperlipidemia.

In this study, moisture transport characteristics for the woven and knitted fabrics made of 8 kinds of fiber materials using MMT (moisture management tester) were measured and discussed with the Bireck bt MMT and water evaporating rate (WER) measuring methods, which are vertical moisture transport methods. In addition, the drying property by MMT of the eight kinds of specimens was compared and discussed with the results measured by the vertical drying measurement. MMT experimental result which is horizental moisture transport appeared to be similar to the result of the Bireck method, which is the vertical moisture transport experiment. Absortion time measured from drip method of the fabrics made of the bamboo, linen, and cotton/nylon composite fabrics was short and thus they showed best wicking property, which was attributed to the low contact angle on the fabric surface and high porosity of the fabrics due to the staple yarn structure composed of the hydrophilic staple fibers. In drying property of the fabric specimens by MMT, maximum absorption radius of the dry-zone knit and bamboo woven fabrics were the highest and they showed the best drying property, which was a little different result compared with vertical drying measurement method. Half time of the drying rate in the MMT method was highly correlated with the fabric thickness and saturated moisture absortion rate and their regression coefficients were 0.9 and 0.88, respectively. This means that the knitted and woven fabric design technology for retaining good wicking and drying properties of the fabrics with thin fabric thickness is very important for obtaining high functional wear comfort fabrics. In addition, wicking and drying properties of the fabrics made of different fiber materials and with different yarns and fabric structures showed different results according to the measuring methods.

The pyrolytic reaction of 1,1-dichloroethylene($CH_2CCl_2$) has been conducted to investigate thermal decomposition of chlorocarbon and product formation pathways under hydrogen reaction environment. The reactions were studied in a isothermal tubular flow reactor at 1 atm total pressure in the temperature range $650{\sim}900^{\circ}C$ with reaction times of 0.3~2.0 sec. A constant feed molar ratio $CH_2CCl_2:H_2$ of 4:96 was maintained through the whole experiments. Complete decay(99%) of the parent reagent, $CH_2CCl_2$ was observed at temperature near $825^{\circ}C$ with 1 sec. reaction time. The important decay of $CH_2CCl_2$ under hydrogen reaction environment resulted from H atom cyclic chain reaction by abstraction and addition displacement. The highest concentration (28%) of $CH_2CHCl$ as the primary product was observed at temperature $700^{\circ}C$, where up to 46% decay of $CH_2CCl_2$ was occurred. The secondary product, $C_2H_4$ as main product was detected at temperature above $775^{\circ}C$. The one less chlorinated ethylene than parent increase with temperature rise subsequently. The HCl and dechlorinated hydrocarbons such as $C_2H_4$, $C_2H_6$, $CH_4$ and $C_2H_2$ were the main products observed at above $825^{\circ}C$. The important decay of $CH_2CCl_2$ resulted from H atom cyclic chain reaction by abstraction and addition displacement. The important pyrolytic reaction pathways to describe the features of reagent decay and intermediate product distributions, based upon thermochemical and kinetic principles, were suggested.

This paper proposes a ceramic heating element-based tankless instant electric water heater for hand/face washing that does not require a lot of hot water. The heating module, which heats the input water and outputs hot water, operates the ceramic heating element detecting input water using a flow sensor. Inside of the heating module is designed to form one flow path in order to get almost $15^{\circ}C$ increased heated water compared to the input water temperature within 2 second after 1.5 liter per minute water supply. The design validity is verified using a heat flow analysis of the water flow and temperature variations inside of the heating module also. Based on the design data, the heating module is constructed including a single rod-type ceramic heating element. After that, a prototype system having temperature setting function by three steps were constructed. The prototype system is connected to a 1.5 liter per minute water supply line, and the water output temperature and time measurement experiments confirmed that the proposed system output the heated water increased by $18.3^{\circ}C$ in case of third step setting within 2 second after water supply. And standby power is under 1 W and peak power does not exceed the permissible range for the general house usage. Several performance results verify that the proposed tankless instant electric water heater is applicable for the washstand of the house, highway rest area and factory so on as winter-time hand/face washing.
