This paper deals with the simulation model for design and operations of A-Mart logistic center for low temperature products. In developed simulation model, receiving docks, digital classification system (DCS), shipping docks, material handling devices and manual sorting stations are considered. Five types of cargo such as fruits, palletized fruits, delicatessen and fisheries, vegetables and refrigerated cargoes are considered. The simulation model and process animation are developed using the simulation package ARENA. Among various design and operation alternatives consisting of the number of workers of receiving dock, allocation of receiving docks by cargo types, DCS capacity, the number of folk-lift, the number of manual sorting operators and overall layout, the best alternatives of each subsystem are selected by simulation analysis. The major performance measures such as DCS throughput, utilization of operators at each station, receiving docks utilization and folk-lift utilization are considered for the alternative evaluation.

The wet shotcrete refers to a method in which all materials are mixed and then supplied to the spraying device, compressed air is added to the nozzle, and the spraying speed is improved to spray on the target surface. In order to reproduce the amount of shotcrete used in the wet method in the field and the situation at the laboratory scale, it is essential to control the discharge amount of the equipment. In this study, in order to increase the reproducibility of field conditions at the laboratory scale, a flow control system for shotcrete mortar spraying equipment was developed and applied to the equipment. To verify the developed equipment, a discharge control test using water and mortar was performed. In the developed control system, the discharge was smoothly controlled according to the user input value for the mono pump, but the discharge was not properly controlled according to the input value for the screw pump because of a reducer. When a speed reducer is attached, it is necessary to adjust the operation rate of the screw pump close to the target flow rate by increasing the operation rate of the screw pump while lowering the operation rate of the mono pump.

This paper forecast that, if the EMC test market for broadcasting and communication materials and equipment reaches a saturated state, such will give rise to adverse effects such as capture phenomenon, rent seeking phenomenon, and stiff test price competition; this in turn will eventually wield a negative impact on our society. Thus, to determine the saturation level of EMC test markets, the size of test markets and test capabilities of the designated laboratories were surveyed. As a result, the operation rate of equipment in the EMC test markets was revealed to be 78 %, suggesting market saturation. Moreover, the wireless, wire, and SAR equipment operation rates reached 65 %, 3 %, and 10 %, respectively, suggesting market saturation. Thus, maintaining the strictness of testing requires limiting the designation of new test laboratories; in light of practices and implementation of laws, however, the relevant administrative agency has difficulty rejecting applications for the designation of laboratories.

현재 한국 군부대에서 사용되고 있는 표적구동장치는 1990년도에 만들어진 재래식 장비로서 노후화 및 부품교체 난제로 인하여 지속적인 시스템의 오류와 이에 따른 장비 가동률 저하 등의 문제로 실전적인 사격 훈련이 어렵다. 이에 본 연구에서는 보다 효과적인 훈련을 진행하고자 복합 구동 표적장치를 개발하였다. 본 연구에서 개발된 복합 구동 표적장치는 Up-down, Swing, Turn, Rotary 방식의 표적 구동을 원격으로 제어하여 다양한 사격 및 전술 훈련 적용 가능하도록 제작되었으며, 또한 사격진행 통제 결과를 통제관 혼자서 총괄 운용이 가능한 모니터링 시스템을 구축하였다. 그리고 현재 각 부대에 설치되어 있는 표적구동장치 및 전술훈련 컨트롤러는 유선을 통한 시리얼통신 및 중앙 분배식 전원공급시스템으로서 운영설비를 위하여 과도한 배관배선 등의 공사가 별도로 시행되어야 하는 문제점이 있다. 따라서 본 연구에서는 이러한 문제점을 해결할 수 있도록 무선 통신시스템방식을 적용하여 다양한 훈련지역에 호환 적용될 수 있는 장비를 개발함으로써 훈련장 시설건립을 위한 부담을 줄이고, 운영의 극대화를 확보할 수 있도록 경제적, 기술적 효과를 추구하였다.

It is very important to collect all production-related status values during the manufacturing process of semiconductor. The analysis results of the collected data can be used for the operation rate, fault diagnosis, process control and removal of predicted obstacles of equipments, eventually contributing to the improvement of production efficiency. For this propose. many IC makers have adopted EES(Equipment Engineering System). As the use of web has become a daily lift activity lately, it has been suggested to expand the scope of monitoring equipments using HTTP or SOAP protocols. To fulfill the web-based EES, EDA(Equipment Data Aquisition) should be facilitated first by integrating and standardizing various forms of messages generated from many different semiconductor equipments. In this paper, a method for integration between different types of information is suggested based on the analysis of various protocols used for the communication between semiconductor equipments. In addition, a software architecture to support the method is desisted.

The performance of truck haulage operations in an underground mine was evaluated using the time usage model and key performance indicators (KPIs) proposed by Global Mining Guidelines Group (GMG). An underground mine that mainly produces iron and titanium iron was selected as a study area, and truck haulage data were collected using Bluetooth beacons and tablet PCs. The collected data were analyzed to identify unit operations, activities, events, and required time of truck haulage operations, and time categories were classified based on the time usage model. The performance of the haulage operations was evaluated using nine indicators in terms of availability, utilization, and effectiveness. As a result, in terms of availability, uptime was 33.9%, physical availability was 95.7%, and mechanical availability was 94.9%. In the case of utilization, use of availability was 83.1%, asset utilization was 28.1%, and operating and effective utilization were 79.6% and 77.7%, respectively. Also, in terms of efficiency, operating efficiency was high at 97.6%, and production effectiveness was found to be 49%.

The standard work report for trucks was developed that records data on truck haulage operations in open-pit and underground mines, and to evaluate the performance of haulage operations. Work reports used in 5 mines in Korea was secured and analyzed, and items to be included in the standard work report were determined. By analyzing the formulas for key performance indicators (KPIs) proposed by the Global Mining Guidelines Group (GMG), it was possible to determine how to record time-related data. After selecting a limestone underground mine as a research area, the performance of haulage operations was evaluated using a standard work report. As a result, in terms of truck availability, uptime was 46.7%, and both physical and mechanical availability were 100%. In the case of utilization, use of availability was 88.2%, the asset utilization was 41.1%, and operating and effective utilization were 88.2% and 79.2%, respectively. Also, in terms of efficiency, operating efficiency was found to be 89.9%.

Demand forecasting is one of the most critical tasks in defense logistics, because the failure of the task can bring about a huge waste of budget. Up to date, ROK-MND(Republic of Korea - Ministry of National Defense) has analyzed past component consumption data with time-series techniques to predict each component's demand. However, the accuracy of the prediction still needs to be improved. In our study, we attempted to find consumption pattern using data mining techniques. We gathered an 18,476 component consumption data first, and then derived diverse features to utilize them in identification of demanding patterns in the consumption data. The results show that our approach improves demand forecasting with higher accuracy.

원자력발전소에서 비상디젤발전기는 노심의 안전성을 지키는 매우 중요한 역할을 담당하고 있다. 이를 위해 디젤발전기는 신뢰성능 높게 유지하도록 규제요건이 마련되어 있다. 디젤발전기의 엔진 상태를 주기적으로 감시하고 평가하기 위해서는 엔진 상태 신호 분석 기술이 필요하다. 엔진 상태 신호 분석에는 연소분석과 진동 및 초음파 측정 및 분석기술이 중요한 비중을 차지한다. 연소 분석은 디젤 엔진의 개별 실린더에 대한 연소 성능에 대한 정보를 제공한다. 진동 및 초음파 분석은 이벤트 타이밍과 기계적 상태에 대한 정보를 알려준다. 이들 신호는 정상적인 부하로 운전하는 디젤엔진의 가동에 영향을 미치지 않고 수집할 수 있다. 엔진 상태 신호 분석을 이용하는 주요 동기는 전통적으로 장비 제작자의 권고에 따라 수행되는 분해-검사 유지 보수 프로그램을 일부 대체하고 예측정비를 통해 신뢰도를 유지하기 위함이다. 상태 진단정비는 엔진 상태 신호분석을 주로 이용하여 엔진의 신뢰도와 이용률을 증가시킬 수 있다. 본 논문에서는 국내외서 경험한 엔진상태신호 측정 및 분석 사례를 기술하였다.
