The ride quality investigation is on-going topic in the car industry since its global standard has not evaluated and it is difficult to point out one part that hinders the ride quality. Since the traditional transfer path analysis that is widely used in car industry to investigate the ride quality requires a lot of test time to process the full data so that there are problems to conduct in industry. Based on these disadvantages, new approaches have developed such as OPAX(operational path analysis with eXogeneous inputs) and OTPA(operational transfer path analysis) for last decades. The OTPA only requires the operational data for evaluate the contribution of vibration sources and the OPAX has advantage of using parametric model to estimate the operating load and needs a minimum set of extra tests with excitation. In this paper, for evaluating the hindrance of ride quality two methods are used and the result is compared with another result of a car having higher ride quality.

The ride quality has become a key component of not only design but car selling as the technology developed and the requirement of passengers grew up. Thus car industry invests lots of time and cost for the higher ride quality. The evaluation of the ride quality mainly is expressed by subjective element that drivers felt. In this paper, instead of the original transfer path analysis method, relatively new methods such as OPAX(Operational path analysis with eXogeneous inputs) and OTPA(operational transfer path analysis) are used for analyzing the main hindrance element of ride quality. With those new method, contribution rate of all paths that the vibration propagate along analyzed after driving test on the roads having different characteristic. The comprehensive hindrance elements of ride quality are deduced from the contribution rate and the improve experiment by changing one of hindrance elements for higher ride quality.

유비쿼터스 환경의 센서 노드들은 데이터 전달을 위해 무선 통신을 수행한다. 또한 노드들의 위치정보를 활용하면 통신 경로선택에 큰 이점을 가지게 된다. 그래서 이동성을 갖춘 센서 노드 위치를 정확히 측정하기 위해 별도의 GPS, 초음파 센서 등을 부착한다. 그러나 센서 네트워크는 제한된 전력 사용과 낮은 비용 유지가 요구된다. 또한 기존의 애드혹 기반의 위치측정과 전체 망의 생존성을 고려해야 하는 센서 네트워크간의 상황이 적용 모델의 변수로서 작용한다. 본 논문에서는 컴퓨팅 자원이 부족한 센서 네트워크에서 다음의 조건을 만족하는 위치측정 방법을 제안한다. 첫째 빈번하게 이동하는 센서 노드의 이동성을 고려한다. 둘째 위치측정을 위한 별도의 장비를 추가하지 않는다. 셋째 노드의 송신출력 분석에 기반하여 상대적인 위치를 검출한다.

The sensitivity analysis of input parameters was Performed fer an ingestion dose assessment model (U. S. NRC's Regulatory Guide 1.109 model) from routine releases of radionuclides. In this study, three kinds of typical Korean foodstuffs (rice, leaff vegetables, milk) and two kinds of radionuclides $(^{l37}Cs,\;^{131}I)$ were considered. The values of input parameters were sampled using a Latin hypercube sampling technique based on Monte Carlo approach. Sensitivity indices, which represent the influence or the importance of input parameters for predictive results, were quantitatively expressed by the partial rank correlation coefficients. As the results, the ratio of the interception fraction to the yield of agricultural plants and the human consumption rate were sensitive input parameters for the considered foodstuffs and radionuclides. Additionally, in case of milk, the transfer factor of radionuclides from animal intake to milk and the daily intake rate of feedstuffs were sensitive input parameters. The weathering removal half-life and the delay time from food production to human consumption were relatively sensitive for $^{137}Cs$ and $^{131}I$ depositions, respectively.
