In this study, we presented the periodic inspection method of the Certified Missile Round Concepts usuing M&S(Modeling and Simulation) techniques. Firstly, We drew up the scenario from the application concepts and the predicted dormant reliability Secondly, we performed the modeling for a simulation program based on the scenario. Lastly we embodied the simulation program. After comparing and examining the difference between the simulation results and the theoretical estimates, we present the best periodic inspection plan for achieving the probability of success.

Using driving simulation, this study investigated the effects of driver's trust in the adaptive cruise control (ACC) system and road density on driver's workload and situation awareness. The drivers were allocated into one of four experimental conditions manipulated by ACC system trust level (trust-increased vs. trust-decreased) and road congestion (high vs. low). The workload and situational awareness of the participants were measured as dependent variables. The results showed followings. First, trust-decreased group for the ACC system had significantly lower trust scores for the system in all of the measurement items, including reducing the driving load and securing safe driving due to the use of this system, than the trust-increased group. Second, the trust-decreased group showed a slower reaction time in the secondary tasks and higher subjective workload than trust-increased group. Third, in contrast, the situational awareness for the driving situation was significantly higher in the trust-decreased group than trust-increased group. The results of this study showed that the driver's trust in the ACC system can affect the various information processing performed while driving. Also, these results suggest that trust in the user's system should be considered as an important variable in the design of an automated driving assistance system.

To ensure the reliability of the safety system so that handing large quantities of hazardous materials in chemical plant is considered basic information in chemical process design. However, the reliability of the production system may be reduced when the reliability of the safety system emphasized in order to ensure the safety of chemical process. It is necessary to balance the reliability of the production system and reliability of the safety. In this study, a quantitative risk assessment was performed by selecting the furnace process, which is widely used in the chemical plant in order to suggest a way to ensure the safety and productivity of chemical process, based on the quantitative data. Quantitative risk assessment methodology have been used directed graph analysis methodology. It is possible to evaluate the reliability of the safety system and the production system. In this study, the optimum system design requirement to improve the safety and the productivity of the furnace is two-out-of-three logic for TT and PT.

Sensory measurements are inevitably uncertain, and this may decrease the reliability of sensor feedback systems. In this paper we present a method to achieve reliable measurements using multiple sensors. Assuming sensors with unknown characteristics in dynamic surroundings, readings from the sensors are clustered and fused with the estimated degrees of credit. In the experiment performed with logical sensors the technique proposed is employed to adaptively estimate the measurand under the circumstances where an existing probabilistic technique is difficult to be applied. The technique proposed may be useful for automatic systems working in unstructured environments - for example, sensory robots employed for intelligent manipulation.

In this paper, we analyze the failure mechanism of the washer pump to find what is the failure cause in the road environment. The statistics show the field common failure mode is inner corrosion. The failure mechanism is assumed that the inner part of washer pump is corroded due to inflow of moisture through vent hole. To prevent the failure, we can think a method that is covering the vent hole. In general, the vent hole is designed to play an important role in an automobile parts. So, we need to prove the vent hole is not necessary. The first purpose of this paper is to make sure that the vent hole does not affect the durability of washer pump using the analysis of operating condition. The second purpose is to compare the durability properties if the vent hole is covered.

In the P2P distributed system, such peers don't always keep on-line status. P2P systems are different from the ordinary systems that such peers are organically operated as the elements of system. In this case, users using P2P system are able to loss the reliability. At this point, many P2P studies are tried to resolve these problems. In this paper, we suggest a P2P search algorithm for multidirectional processing about the resources to be downloading. In existing studies, the loading rate is very high to select new resources supported peer, so we suggest new solution in this study.

Functional safety is the part of the overall safety of a system that depends on the system or equipment operating correctly in response to its inputs, including the safe management of likely operator errors, hardware failures, systematic failures, and environmental changes. One of the essential concepts of functional safety is Safety Integrity Level(SIL). It is defined as a relative level of risk-reduction provided by a safety function, or to specify a target level of risk reduction. In this paper, each element of SIL assessment will be defined. Based on each element, specific process of SIL selection will be established by using flowchart. The flowchart provides a SIL assessment guideline for functional safety engineers. The proposed theory will be verified by applying to a oil refining plant for SIL assessment.

UDP is an unreliable data transmission protocol, in contrast to TCP, which implements reliable data delivery based on flow control and retransmission methods. However, the TCP operation algorithm for guaranteeing reliability is inefficient in improving transmission performance, and above all, there is no need to transmit data using the TCP method for fields that do not require perfect integrity. In this paper, we intend to discuss ways to improve the stability while maintaining the existing performance of UDP. To this end, a program applied with packet buffering and relaying techniques was developed, and the performance and stability of the experiment were verified.

Solar lamp systems may not operate normally in the event of some system or controller failure due to internal or external factors, in which case secondary problems occur, which may cost the system recovery. Thus, when these errors occur, a technology is needed to recover to the state it was in before the failure occurred and to enable re-execution. This paper designs and implements a system that can recover the state of the system to the state prior to the time of the error by using the Watchdog Timer within the controller if a software error has occurred inside the system, and it also proposes a technology to reset and re-execution the system through a separate reset circuit in the event of hardware failure. The proposed system provides stable operation, maintenance cost reduction and reliability of the solar lamp system by enabling the system to operate semi-permanently without external support by utilizing the automatic recovery and automatic reset function for errors that occur in the operation of the solar lamp system. In addition, it can be applied to maintain the system's constancy by utilizing the self-operation, diagnosis and recovery functions required in various high reliability applications.

Latching valves are operated like solenoid valves by open/close command and they maintain final open or close commend without electric power source, so they are widely used in propulsion system of satellite and launch vehicle requiring reliability and being subject of restriction of power. This paper present design and test procedure of latching valve using permanent magnet polarized solenoid, which is developed for 45N Hydrazine propulsion system, to estimate feasibility of design and manufacture of latching valve.
