With the increasing number of vehicles in use in our daily life and the rise of traffic congestion problems, many methods and models have been developed for real time optimisation of traffic lights. Nevertheless, most methods which consider real time physical queue sizes of vehicles waiting for green lights overestimate the optimal cycle length for such real traffic control. This paper deals with the development of a generic hybrid model describing both physical traffic flows and control of signalised intersections. The firing times assigned to the transitions of the control part are considered dynamic and are calculated by a simplified optimisation method. This method is based on splitting green times proportionally to the predicted queue sizes through input links for each new cycle time. The proposed model can be easily translated into a control code for implementation in a real time control system.

Green Frame is a building frame system to construct a column-beam structure using composite precast concrete members. To reduce the cost of producing precast concrete, in-situ production of members is required. However, when the structural members are produced on site, it needs a large space for production. So, "Just-In-Time" production method should be adopted. For Just-In-Time to be realized, the early strength of members should be ensured for them to be transported. Thus, steam curing to secure the early strength is applied in Green Frame. Yet, a large-scale steam curing system is not possible for in-situ production of precast concrete. A smaller steam curing system is needed. In this regard, the study is aimed to develop a new steam curing method applicable to the in-situ production of precast concrete.

Macroporous $SnO_2$ foam was successfully synthesized via a simple soft-chemical route by hybridization between alkylamine and tin(IV) oxide. According to X-ray diffraction (XRD) analysis, the as-prepared $SnO_2$ foam had a highly ordered lamella structure along the crystallographic c-axis, which transformed to a rutile phase after thermal treatment at $300^{\circ}C$. X-ray absorption spectroscopy (XAS) at the Sn K-edge revealed that $SnO_2$ particles in the hybrid material maintained their nanosized structure after hybridization with alkylamine. Scanning electron microscope (SEM) images clearly showed that the as-prepared $SnO_2$ foam had a macroporous structure. This synthetic route can be extended to the development of open frameworks with good electrochemical properties in battery applications.

Blood samples collected from green (chelonia mydas), loggerhead (caretta caretta), and Kemp's ridley (Lepidochelys kempii) sea turtles were analyzed by radioimmunoassay to detect seasonal variations in thyroid hormones and compare levels in wild and captive individuals. Sexual dimorphism in the annual cycle of thyroxine was observed in adult Kemp's ridley. No differences were observed between immature male and female green and loggerhead sea turtles. The level of triiodothyronine was consistently low relative to thyroxine in all species investigated, and captive sea turtles exhibit higher plasms thyroid levels than do wild ones.

A study of partial carbonisation of green pitch fibres to temperatures in the range of 500-$1000^{\circ}C$ was carried out on three precursors - a neat pitch and two polymer modified pitches, with a view to find out a suitable temperature at which the fibres acquire considerably improved toughness or handleability (compared to that in the green stage) for their subsequent processing into carbon fibres. A partial carbonisation temperature of 500-$600^{\circ}C$ has been identified to result in a remarkable improvement in the toughness/handleability of the fibres in all the three cases. However, from techno-economical considerations, the neat pitch appears to provide the best precursor system for the production of pitch based carbon fibres.

YAG:Tb3+ as green phosphor were studied for the development of low voltage FED phosphor prepared by hydrothermal synthesis. We changed the concentration of luminescence center ion Tb3+ in hydrothermal reaction of which conditions were at 8M NH4OH as mineralizer, at 35$0^{\circ}C$ for 12hrs. As results, we could finally get the YAG:Tb3+ (Y3-xTbxAl5O12) powder of which particle size was about 0.2~1.0${\mu}{\textrm}{m}$. The excitation spectra and the green emitted spectra of YAG:Tb3+ phosphor powder were observed. When we doped 0.25 mol Tb to YAG, we could observe the maximum cathodoluminescence from YAG:Tb3+ phosphor and the chromaticity coordinate of the phosphor was shown x=0.35, y=0.56 in CIE1931 diagram.

The planning of the central green space (residential park) in a residential quarter is an effective way of increasing public space in the process of urban development and urban renewal. It is regarded as an important technical project in the detail plan of a residential quarter in order to create a better environment in the residential quarters. The scale of a residential park, normally not less than 5000㎡, is defined according to the land-use conditions and the local population. The site should have easy access for the residents, and fit into the surrounding landscape and Fengshui whenever possible. It should also satisfy various leisure needs of the local residents at all ages. The design of the park should be friendly to the residents'interests, hobbies and aspirations. The artistic style of the landscape is to emphasize on delightfulness, harmony and warmness.

전 세계적으로 온실가스에 대한 관심이 높아지는 가운데 UN 기후변화 협약 발리로드맵에 따르면 2013부터 한국도 온실가스 의무감축대상국에 포함될 예정이다. 최근 녹색성장 위원회의 국가 온실가스 중기 (2020) 감축목표 설정에 대한 3가지 시나리오에 따르면 물류분야에서도 2020년 은실가스 배출전망치 대비 20~30% 감축이 예상된다. 이에 따라 물류효율화에 기반한 온실가스 배출량 및 에너지 사용량 저감과제를 적극적으로 추진해야 한다. 본 논문은 물류부문에서도 항만에 적용가능한 온실가스 감축 기술을 IT 관점에서 접근하여 대안을 제시한 후 이를 종합적으로 관리할 수 있는 탄소배출관리시스템을 개발한다.

Advanced melting technology is now being employed in the manufacture of stainless steel powders. The new process currently includes electric arc furnace (EAF) technology in concert with Argon Oxygen Decarburization (AOD), High Performance Atomizing (HPA) and hydrogen annealing. The new high performance-processing route has allowed the more consistent production of existing products, and has allowed enhanced properties, such as improved green strength and green density. This paper will review these processing changes along with the potential new products that are being developed utilizing this technology. These include high strength stainless steels such as duplex and dual phase as well as stainless steel powders used in high temperature applications such as diesel filters and fuel cells.
