In this study, a modified indirect evaluation method was developed to predict the deterioration level of water pipes. The accuracy of the modified method was verified by comparing it with the direct method. The weights of index were adjusted by reducing the weight of water quality corrosion, soil corrosion, lay depth and road type according to the importance of the existing evaluation factors and adding the weight of pipe thickness. In the results, the weight of pipe thickness was determined to be 0.1530. Comparing with the direct evaluation method, the accuracy of the modified indirect evaluation method increased by 31.03% compared to the indirect evaluation method. The modified indirect evaluation method will be able to select relatively old pipes more accurately and efficiently than the existing indirect evaluation method when prioritizing the improvement of old water pipes.

The ultrasonic nondestructive test (NDT) was applied to deck in-service to inspect and evaluate the performance of decking materials using ultrasonic pulse velocity. First, the measuring method between direct and indirect method according to transducer arrangement was studied. Second, the ultrasonic pulse velocity of decks in-service was compared with the passage of time. Finally, the change of ultrasonic pulse velocity was evaluated to expect service life of decking materials. The results of comparison between direct and indirect method was statistically insignificant and the ratio of direct to indirect method was 1.02. 1.05 respectively. The ultrasonic pulse velocity of decks in-service was decreased as the passage of time and the linear relationship in the ultrasonic pulse velocity to passage of time was found. From the results, The ultrasonic NDT will be helpful as an efficient method of on-site management of decks in-service.

We discuss confidence intervals for sensitive binomial attributes obtained by a direct question method and indirect question method. The Randomized Response Technique(RRT) by Warner (1965) is an indirect question method that uses a randomization device to reduce the response burden of respondents. We used the mean coverage probability (MCP), root mean squared error (RMSE), and mean expected width (MEW) to compare the confidence intervals by the two methods. The numerical comparisons indicated found that the MEW of RRT is too large and the RRT is so conservative that the MCP exceeds a nominal level(${\alpha}$); therefore, it is necessary to complement these problem in order to increase the utility of the indirect question method.

To determin the accuracy of serological methods in detecting Borna-disease(BD) viral antibodies, 273 experimentally infected rabbit sera were compared by using indirect immunofluorescence antibody test(IFA), serum neutralization test(SN) and enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay(ELISA). One hundred twenty-three serum samples had BD viral antibodies detected by IFA. CELISA antibodies to BD virus were also present in the same one hundred twenty-three serum samples. However, neutralization test antibodies to BD virus were present in 27 of the in rabbit serum samples. Neutralization test was sensitive in comparison with KFA and CELISA. In comparison with IFA, CELISA was both sensitive and specific in detecting BD viral antibodies. These results extend observations made with laboratory animals to the diagnosis of naturally infected animals.

To analyze the behavioral characteristics of rocks on indirect tests and uniaxial compressive strength, researchers have investigated 1417 pieces of rock block, which include igneous, metamorphic and sedimentary rocks in Korea. The same behavioral characteristics have been shown in every type of sedimentary rock and in the same species of rock in the case of Brazilian strength application. This suggests that correlations of rocks for geological considerations can lead to high reliability of the experimental results in case of an indirect method.

In this paper, the transient electromagneti wave scattering at dielectric cylinder is studied by new numerical analysis method. Basic formulation of boundary integral equation (BIE) for numerical method is started weighted residual technique. BIE is made to two simultaneous equation at surface inner and outside point of dielectric cylinder in extended boundary condition (EBC) and surface boundary condition (SBC). Numerical method is used Boundary element method (BEM) that is two form, one is direct method and the other is indirect method, so that this method that transformes operator inversion martics is used numerical analysis. A good agreement of this numerical solution and the other results is obtained.

Design and construction of long-span bridge are recently increasing by development of computer technology. Specially, cable stayed bridge and suspension bridge having cable component are representative of long-span bridge may do. Therefore, this paper a present a methodology for cable tension force monitoring in cable-stayed bridge under construction using acceleration data acquired by the vibration method. To improve accuracy construction, all stay cables are measured, according to 4-step construction stage and change of temperature.

Indirect calorimetry is the measurement of the amount of heat generated in an oxidation reaction by determining the intake or consumption of oxygen or by measuring the amount of carbon dioxide or nitrogen released and translating these quantities into a heat equivalent. In the last 20 years there has been significant development in both laboratory and computerized metabolic systems used in indirect calorimetry. In addition, there has been increased use of breath-by-breath EGAIC. Several researchers have suggested that breath-by-breath analysis, because of their practicality, could fulfill this need for a valid and reliable expired gas analysis indirect calorimetry instrument. It was hoped this investigation would determine the best validation for a precise measurement of breath-by-breath expired gas analysis indirect calorimetry. The problem with the available research is that few studies have examined the validity and reliability of all these different systems for breath-by-breath expired gas analysis indirect calorimetry. Therefore, there is a need to find out the most valid, reliable, and precise measurement of the breath-by-breath expired gas analysis indirect calorimetry.

악취현상 평가방법은 냄새유발물질의 농도를 정량적으로 분석하는 화학성분분석법과 복합취기물질에 의란 감각수준을 다수의 악취판정인이 평가하는 관능측정법으로 대별할 수 있다. 특히, 관능측정법의 경우 자극의 세기를 표현하는 직접관능법과 최소냄새감지한계회석배수를 구하는 간접관능법으로 구분할 수 있으며, 환경악취현상을 객관적으로 평가하기 위해서는 성분분석과 감각수준을 평가하는 두 방법에 의한 측정결과를 종합적으로 고려하는 것이 타당한 것으로 알려져 있다. (중략)
