Recently, a variety of researches has been carried out to estimate the reliability-based analysis and design method of concrete structures and is attracted by probabilistic-based durability analysis/method of concrete structures subjected to chloride containing environment using MCS (Monte Carlo Simulation). Probabilistic-based durability analysis/method was proposed by lots of researches, but there is the lack of data for degradation factors for the calculation of probability distribution. The reliability based durability analysis method represents that the service life and reliability index varies with the probability distribution and coefficient of variation of each factor. Therefore, in this paper, the importance of experiment data for the degradation factors is confirmed and the study of reliability index in RC structures under chloride attack environments is performed considering the variation coefficient of degradation factors.

An important issue for software developers is to determine when to stop testing the software system and release it to users. Generally the release time is specified by the number of detected faults or the testing time needed to meet the reliability requirement. Software reliability directly depends on the number of remaining or corrected faults. All the detected faults are not always corrected under imperfect debugging environment. We therefore need a new approach to software release policy for imperfect debugging. This paper suggests a software release policy, which guarantees that the reliability requirement has been achieved. The suggested policy is then implemented and illustrated for specific SRGMs.

전자 패키지가 열을 받을 때 회로기판과 칩의 열팽창계수 차이에 의해 발생되는 응력은 솔더 조인트의 파손에 영향을 미친다. 본 연구에서는 이 영향을 정량적으로 규명하기 위하여 열충격시험기를 이용해 얻어진 솔더 조인트의 전기저항 변화와 수명과의 상관관계를 규명하였고, BGA솔더 조인트의 수명을 정량적으로 도출하였다. 또한 Sn-3.5Ag-0.5Cu 무연 솔더와 63Sn-37Pb 유연 솔더를 위의 실험에 동시에 적용시켜 건전성을 FORM(first-order reliability method)과 Weibull Function Model을 이용해 비교하였다.

This study is to propose a practical and realistic reliability analysis by ETCM (Expected Total Cost Minimization). One of the main objectives is intended to propose the safety assessment and capacity rating of existing reinforced concrete members by evaluation index, that is RF(Rating Factor) from the results of the field test and inspection for reinforced concrete bridge. ETCM method is used for the reliability analysis of the proposed models. The proposed reliability model and method are applied to the safety assessment and system factors of reinforced concrete members.

A dynamic reliability model for analyzing the stability of armor units on rubble-mound breakwater is mathematically developed by using Hudson's formula and definition of single-failure mode. The probability density functions of resistance and loading functions are defined properly, the related parameters to those probability density functions are also estimated straightforwardly by the first-order analysis. It is found that probabilities of failure for the stability of armor units on rubble-mound breakwater are continuously increased as the service periods are elapsed, because of the occurrence of repeated loading of random magnitude by which the resistance may be deteriorated. In particular, the factor of safety is incorporated into the dynamic reliability model in order to evaluate the probability of failure as a function of factor of safety. It may thus be possible to take some informations for optimal design as well as managements and repairs of armor units on rubble-mound breakwater from the dynamic reliability analyses.

The military communication equipment is required the high reliability for operating adequate functions under severe conditions. This reliability is the essential element for the quality of the product, for the uncontrolled factors, such as the clearance, damage of the material, the reduction of stiffness, which are the designer is unable to handle. In this paper, the uncertainty for the dimension was supposed to the probability model for the military communication equipment, and the average of the objective function was minimized for reducing design uncertainty. The reliability-based design optimization which was implemented the limit state function was formulated into the mathematical model, so the reliable optimized structure was implemented than the base-line design.

Software reliability in the software development process is an important issue. Software process improvement helps in finishing with reliable software product. Infinite failure NHPP software reliability models presented in the literature exhibit either constant, monotonic increasing or monotonic decreasing failure occurrence rates per fault. In this paper, we were proposed the reliability model with the exponential and inverse exponential distribution, which made out efficiency application for software reliability. Algorithm to estimate the parameters used to maximum likelihood estimator and bisection method, model selection based on mean square error (MSE) and coefficient of determination($R^2$), for the sake of efficient model, were employed. Analysis of failure, using real data set for the sake of proposing the exponential and inverse exponential distribution, was employed. This analysis of failure data compared with the exponential and inverse exponential distribution property. In order to insurance for the reliability of data, Laplace trend test was employed. In this study, the inverse exponential distribution model is also efficient in terms of reliability because it (the coefficient of determination is 80% or more) in the field of the conventional model can be used as an alternative could be confirmed. From this paper, the software developers have to consider life distribution by prior knowledge of the software to identify failure modes which can be able to help.

A probability density function of reliability function is derived in this paper, by which the stability of armor units on the rubble-mound breakwater can be studied on the probabilistic approach. To obtain the distribution, each random variable of the reliability function is assumed to follow Gaussian distribution. The distribution function of reliability function is in agreement with the histogram simulated by the Monte-Carlo method. In addition, the failure probability of armor units on the rubble-mound breakwater evaluated by the derived probability density function is shown to have the same order of magnitude as those calculated by FMA and AFDA of moment method. In particular, it is important to note that random variables of the reliability function may be considered to be statistically independent in the reliability analysis of armor units on the rubble-mound breakwater. Therefore, the present approach may be straightforwardly applicable to all of the cases that any random variables in the reliability function are controlled by other distribution functions as well as normal distribution.

본 논문은 BCPS(Balanced canister purge solenoid valve) 의 Lab. 내구 시험 Spec. 결정 방법에 관한 것이다. BCPS 는 기존에 사용 중인 CPS(Canister purge solenoid valve) 의 응답성과 제어의 용이성을 좋게 하여 배기 가스 특성을 향상시키기 위해 CPS 내부에 Rubber 재질의 막(Diaphragm) 을 적용한 것이다. 하지만 이 Diaphragm 이 마모 등에 의해서 찢어지면, 오히려 배기 특성이 저하된다. 따라서 BCPS의 적용을 위해서는 이 Diaphragm 의 내구성이 검증되어야 하며, 이를 위해서는 새로운 신뢰성 시험 Spec. 의 개발이 필요하다. 본 연구에서는 BCPS Diaphragm의 검증을 위해 필요한 신뢰성 시험 Spec. 을 결정하였다. 이를 위해, X-ray Inspection System등을 이용하여 부압에 따른 Diaphragm 의 형상 변화 등을 관찰하였으며, 실제 차량에서 Diaphragm 에 걸리는 압력의 분포를 측정하였다.
