This article describes the numerical investigation of turbulent blood flow in the stenosed artery bifurcation under periodic acceleration of the human body. Numerical analyses for turbulent blood flow were performed with different magnitude of periodic accelerations using a modified turbulence model which was considering drag reduction of non-Newtonian fluid. The blood was considered to be a non-Newtonian fluid which was based on the power-law viscosity. In order to validate the modified $k-{\varepsilon}$ model, numerical simulations were compared with the standard $k-{\varepsilon}$ model and the Malin's low Reynolds number turbulence model for power-law fluid. As results, the modified $k-{\varepsilon}$ model represents intermediate characteristics between laminar and standard $k-{\varepsilon}$ model, and the modified $k-{\varepsilon}$ model showed good agreements with Malin's verified power law model. Moreover, the computing time and computer resource of the modified $k-{\varepsilon}$ model were reduced about one third than low Reynolds number model including Malin's model.

This study, a point rainfall process model, which could represent appropriately observed rainfall data, was to select. The point process models-rectangular pulses Poisson process model(RPPM), Neyman-Scott rectangular pulses Poisson process model(NS-RPPM), and modified Neyman-Scott rectangular pulses Poisson process model(modified NS-RPPM)-all based on Poisson process were considered as possible rainfall models, whose statistical analyses were performed with their simulation rainfall data. As results, simulated rainfall data using the NS-RPPM and the modified NS-RPPM represent appropriately statistics of observed data for several aggregation levels. Also, simulated rainfall data using the modified NS-RPPM shows similar characteristics of rainfall occurrence to the observed rainfall data. Especially, the modified NS-RPPM reproduces high-intensity rainfall events that contribute largely to occurrence of natural harzard such as flood and landslides most similarly. Also, the modified NS-RPPM shows the best results with respect to the total rainfall amount, duration, and inter-event time. In conclusions, the modified NS-RPPM was found to be the most appropriate model for the long-term simulation of rainfall.

We propose modified exact inferential methods in logistic regression model. Exact conditional distribution in logistic regression model is often highly discrete, and ordinary exact inference in logistic regression is conservative, because of the discreteness of the distribution. For the exact inference in logistic regression model we utilize the modified P-value. The modified P-value can not exceed the ordinary P-value, so the test of size $\alpha$ based on the modified P-value is less conservative. The modified exact confidence interval maintains at least a fixed confidence level but tends to be much narrower. The approach inverts results of a test with a modified P-value utilizing the test statistic and table probabilities in logistic regression model.

Adsorption and desorption experiments were carried out on rough rice and brown rice (Nampyung) at 5, 15, 25, 35, $45^{\circ}C$ for moisture contents between 8.7 and $25\%$ (db). The method employed was to measure the equilibrium relative humidity (ERH) of air in contact with the grain under static conditions, using an electronic hygrometer The effects of temperature and moisture contents were investigated, and the measured values were fitted to the modified Henderson, the modified Chung-Pfost, the modified Halsey and the modified Oswin model. The ERHs of rough rice and brown rice decreased with an decrease in moisture content and temperature, and the effects of temperature was no significant at moisture content of $25\%$ (db). Equilibrium moisture content (EMC) of brown rice was higher than rough rice at same temperature and relative humidity. Desorption EMC is higher than the adsorption, but there is no significant difference between desorption and adsorption EMC in moisture content near $25\%$ (db) at rough rice and near 9, 21 and $25\%$ (db) at brown rice. The modified Oswin model was the best in describing the adsorption EMC and the modified Chung-Pfost model was the best in describing the adsorption ERH of rough rice. The modified Oswin model was the best in describing the adsorption EMC/ERH of brown rice. The modified Chung-Pfost model was the best in describing the desorption EMC/ERH of rough rice and brown rice.

In this paper, the simple truss model was modified to predict the punching shear strength of long-span prestressed concrete (PSC) deck slabs under wheel load including the effects of transverse prestressing and long span length between girders. The strength of the compressive zone arounding punching cone was evaluated by the stiffness of inclined strut which was modified by considering aging effective modulus. The stiffness of springs which control lateral displacement of the roller supports consists of the steel reinforcement and prestressing which passed through the punching cone. Initial angle of struts was determined by the experimental observation to compensate for uncertainties in the complexities of the punching shear. The validity of computed punching shear strength by modified simple truss model was shown by comparing with experimental results and the experimental results were also compared with existing punching shear equations to determine level of predictability. The modified simple truss model appeared to better predict the punching shear strength of PSC deck slabs than other available equations. The punching shear strength, which was determined by snap-through critical load of modified simple truss model, can be used effectively to examine punching shear strength of long span PSC deck slabs.

In this study, parameters of long and short term runoff model were optimized using genetic algorithm as a basic research for integrated water management in a watershed. In case of Korea where drought and flood occurr frequently, the integrated water management is necessary to minimize possible damage of drought and flood. Modified TANK model was optimized as a long term runoff model and storage-function model was optimized as a short term runoff model. Besides distinguished parameters were applied to modified TANK model for supplementing defect that the model estimates less runoff in the storm period. As a result of application, simulated long and short term runoff results showed 7% and 5% improvement compared with before optimized on the average. In case of modified TANK model using distinguished parameters, the simulated runoff after optimized showed more interrelationship than before optimized. Therefore, modified TANK model can be applied for the long term water balance as an integrated water management in a watershed. In case of storage-function model, simulated runoff in the storm period showed high interrelationship with observed one. These optimized models can be applied for the runoff analysis of watershed.

The COBRA-TF liquid droplet entrainment models have been assessed and improved through various experiments. The COBRA-TF code uses the Wurtz entrainment model in the film mist flow regime and the mechanistic model based on the critical Weber number and critical vapor velocity in the hot wall flow regimes, respectively. The Wurtz model has been replaced with the modified Sugawara model. The assessment against the experiments by Hewitt, Keeys, Yanai, and Whalley showed the modified Sugawara model better predicts the steam-water as well as the air-water experiments for the film mist flow regime. For hot wall flow regime, the COBRA-TF entrainment model was modified using two methods, one with an increased critical Weber number and the other with the Yonomoto's critical vapor velocity model. The modified models were assessed using the FLECHT-SEASET bottom reflood tests. The results showed that the Yonomoto model best predicts the quenching time, whereas the local maximum rod temperature was not affected much.

The purpose of this study was to measure the effects of the perceived sacrifice, service quality, value and satisfaction on the intention to revisit restaurants. A total of 273 questionnaires were completed. The equation model was used to measure the causal effects. The results demonstrated that the confirmatory factor analysis model provided an excellent model fit. The modified model yielded a significantly better fit to the data than the service quality model, and accounted for a greater share of the variance in intention to revisit than the service quality model. The effects of value and service quality on intention to revisit were statistically significant in both the service quality model and modified model. The effects of perceived sacrifice and service quality on value were statistically significant in the service quality model and modified model. As expected, service quality had a significant effect on satisfaction in the modified model. Satisfaction had a significant effect on intention to revisit in the modified model. Satisfaction also had a significant effect on service quality in the service quality model. Moreover, service quality had an indirect influence on intention to revisit through value and satisfaction in the modified model. Service quality had an indirect influence on the intention to revisit through value in the service quality model. The overall findings offer strong empirical support for the intuitive notion that improving service quality can increase favorable intention to revisit, and decrease unfavorable intention to revisit.

In this study, the numerical analysis of piezocone penetration and dissipation tests has been conducted using the Modified Cam-Clay model, which is generally used in soil mechanics. The Modified Cam-Clay model and related mathematical equations in finite element derivation have been formulated in the Updated Lagrangian reference frame to take the large displacement and finite strain nature of piezocone penetration into consideration. The cone tip resistance, the pore water pressure, and the dissipation curve obtained from the finite element analysis have been compared and investigated with the experimental results from piezocone penetration test performed in Yangsan site. The numerical results showed good agreement with the experimental results; however, the better numerical simulation of the continuous and deep penetration needs further research.
