The warrants to install traffic signals used in U.S.A. are well specified comparing to those in other countries. Among the eleven warrants of the U.S.A., the Warrant 9, 10, and 11 are especially fit in practice. The warrant relaxed to traffic volumes used presently in Korea have been adopted from the U.S.A. Those may not have been reliable in the traffic situation of Korea. The rules required passing through intersections are not kept well at intersections controlled without signals. The purposes of this study are to test and evaluate the reliability of the Warrant 9 and 11 adopted form U.S.A.n Korean traffic situation and to propose new traffic signal warrants related to traffic volumes fitted in here. The traffic volume warrants are proposed considering the situation of rules not being kept well(current situation) and that of vice versa(ideal situation). The results of this study are following; 1) The total volumes warranted to traffic signals are 1600vph, 1700vph, and 1800vph at 4-legs intersection having 1 by 1 lane, 1 by 2 lanes, and 2 by 2 lanes respectively. The total volumes warranted are 1400vph and 1600vph at 3-legs intersection haying 1 by 2 1anes, and 2 by 2 lanes respectively. 2) Another traffic warrants proposed are transformed from the currant warrants 9 and 11. These warrants are composed of the total volumes and the ratio of the volume of the minor street to that of the major street.

The national standards for the installation of pedestrian crosswalks prohibits installation of crosswalks within 200 meters of nearby overpasses, underpasses, or crosswalks. In case the exceptional installation is required, the feasibility study is to be thoroughly conducted by the local police agency. However, it is an undeniable fact that the specific installation standards for optimal types and locations of crosswalks are not yet to be established. This paper examines the development of traffic accident prediction model applicable to different types and locations of bus stops(type A and type B) at mid-block intersections. Furthermore, it develops the poisson regression model which sets the "number of traffic accidents" and "traffic accident severity" as dependent variables, while using "traffic volumes", "pedestrian traffic volumes" and "the distance between crosswalks and bus stops" as independent variables. According to the traffic accident prediction model applicable to the type A bus stop location, the traffic accident severity increases relative to the number of traffic volumes, the number of pedestrian traffic volumes, and the distance between crosswalks and bus stops. In case of the type B bus stop model, the further the bus stop is from crosswalks, the number of traffic accidents decreases while it increases when traffic volumes and pedestrian traffic volumes increase. Therefore, it is reasonable to state that the bus stop design which minimizes the traffic accidents is the type C design, which is the one in combination of type A and type B, and the optimal distance is found to be 65 meters. In case of the type A design and the type B design, the optimal distances are found to be within range 60~70meters.

The differential equations governing both the free vibrations and buckling loads of the beam-columns with constant volumes are derived and solved numerically. The axial load effects are included in the differential equations. The Runge-Kutta method and Regula-Falsi method are used to compute the eigenvalues corresponding to the natural frequencies. and buckling loads. In numerical examples, the simple end constraint is considered.

In this paper, we obtain some geometric inequalities for mixed volumes of a convex body and its polar dual. We also develop a lower bound of the product of quermassintegral of a convex body and its polar dual and give a lower bound for the product of the dual quermassintegral of any index of centrally symmetric convex body and that of its polar dual.

In this paper, a multigate pulsed doppler system with parallel signal processing which enables the transcutaneous assesment of the blood-flow velocities of five adjacent sample volumes is developed. The outputs of the system are audio signals, velocity curves and velocity profiles of 5 adjacent sample volumes. We have applied to the major superficial arteries and obtained the detailed information about the time dependent blood-flow behavior.

We first introduce a complex hyperbolic space and a complex hyperbolic manifold. After defining the canonical horoball and the canonical cusp on the complex hyperbolic manifold, we estimate the volumes of canonical cusps of complex hyperbolic manifolds. Finally, we deal with cusped, complex hyperbolic 2-manifolds, and in particular, the ones with only one cusp.

Plane sweep plays an important role in computational geometry. This paper shows that an extension of topological plane sweep to three-dimensional space can calculate the volume swept by rotating a solid polyhedral object about a fixed axis. Analyzing the characteristics of rotational swept volumes, we present an incremental algorithm based on the three-dimensional topological sweep technique. Our solution shows the time bound of O(n²·2?+T?), where n is the number of vertices in the original object and T? is time for handling face cycles. Here, α(n) is the inverse of Ackermann's function.

The purpose of this study is to estimate and forecast the marine trading volumes based on the structural model. We employ GPH cointegration test since the structural model must be stationary to get the accurate predicted values. The empirical results show that our model is stationary. This paper also applies variance decompositions and impulse-response functions to the structural model composed of exchange rate, domestic industrial activity, and world business. The results indicate that while both loading and unloading volumes respond positively to the shocks in income and then decay very slowly, their responses are different to the shocks in exchange tate.

Cloud computing provides access to big volumes of data and computational resources through various services. Cloud computing also supports to process these volumes of data using set of computers. Cloud computing can satisfy resource requirements through virtualization technology. Eucalyptus is an open source cloud computing environment helps the users to setup their own private cloud based on virtualization. In this paper, monitoring of virtual machines is explained with the eucalyptus cloud setup.
