This paper analyzed recurvature of typhoons by using 20 years meteorological data from 1992 to 2011. The results of this study are as follows. Yearly numbers of typhoon recurvature showed decreasing tendency gradually with decrease of numbers of typhoon occurrence. Typhoons recurvature were especially many between August and October and number of typhoon recurvature between July and October was occupied counts for 71 % of the whole typhoon recurvature. Life of typhoon recurvature in the North Pacific was most frequent at 5 days and 7 days. Mean life of typhoon recurvature was 6.8 days and this numerical value was longer than mean life of the whole typhoon including recuevatute and non-recurvature. Most of typhoons recurvature changed their direction north-eastwards in 20-34 degrees north latitude and 120-139 degrees east longitude. Mean latitude recurvature and longitude recurvature were 25 degrees north latitude and 135 degrees east longitude, respectively.

Effect of mean stress on the fatigue life of natural rubber for engine mount was investigated. Fatigue damage parameter based on the maximum Green-Lagrange strain was employed to account for the effect of mean stress. A procedure to predict the fatigue life of rubber components based on the maximum Green-Lagrange strain method was proposed. Nonlinear finite element analysis and fatigue test of jang-gu shape specimen were conducted to predict the fatigue life of engine mount. Predicted fatigue lives have a good agreement with tested lives within a factor of 3.

전 세계적으로 항공기의 노후화에 따른 안전성 확보와 수명연장을 위한 대책 연구가 활발하다. 미국의 경우 군용기 (주로 수송기)의 평균수명은 40년을 넘어서고 있으며 이들은 아직도 $20{\sim}30년$ 더 사용될 예정이다. 민간항공기의 경우에도 군용기만큼은 아니지만 노후화하고 있기는 마찬가지이다. 수명연장을 위해 여러가지 비파괴검사 기술이 활용되고 있으며, 새로운 비파괴 시험 평가 검사 방법들이 속속 개발되고 있다. 항공기의 안전을 위협하는 기체구조 손상의 2대 주범으로는 부식과 피로를 꼽을 수 있으며, 이를 탐지하고 평가하기 위한 경제적인 검사방법에 대한 연구가 미국을 중심으로 활발하게 진행되고 있는데, 이에 대한 최근 현황을 살펴본다.

수명시험에서는 시험기간을 단축하기 위해 중도절단(consoring) 방법을 사용한다. 혼합 관측중단방법은 정시에 시험을 끝낼 수 있으며 고장시간을 관찰할 필요가 없다는 장점 때문에 널리 사용되고 있다. 본 논문에서는 제품의 수명이 와이블 분포를 따르고 형상모수를 알고 있다는 가정아래, 혼합 관측중단하에서 생산자 위험과 소비자 위험을 고려한 신뢰도 합격판정 샘플링 계획을 개발하였다. 아울러, 형상모수값에 개재된 불확실성이 실제 생산자 위험과 소비자 위험, 그리고 의사결정까지의 평균 고장개수에 미치는 영향을 민감도 분석을 통해 파악하였다.

Over the past four decades reproductive behavior has changed rapidly in much of the developing countries. The average total fertility rate has fallen by half from six or more to near three today. Between 1960 and 2000 the largest fertility decline occurred in Asia and Latin America. The mortality rate has also decreased in most developing countries. The purpose of this study is to review the pattern and characteristic of demographic transition in developing countries. At first, this study focuses on the regional fertility and mortality transition. Africa, the total fertility rate is still high, can be match to the second stage of demographic transition. Similar case is found in Southern West Asia areas. However, the fertility rate has therd stage of demographic transition. The same pattern is found in Latin America. The mortality rate has also decreased in most of developing countries. It is interesting to find that there is a clear difference among developing countries. In terms of crude death rate, Latin American countries show the lowest rate. while African countries remain still high rate. About mortality, African countries show a high level in terms of both crude death rate and infant mortality rate. African countries also show the lowest level of life expectancy in the world. One of the reasons for low level of life expectancy in Africa is the widespread of AIDS in this areas. This study suggests that we should include 'AIDS' in the study of mortality in African countries.

Over the past four decades reproductive behavior has changed rapidly in much of the developing countries. The average total fertility rate has fallen by half from six or more to near three today. Between 1960 and 2000 the largest fertility decline occurred in Asia and Latin America. The mortality rate has decreased in most developing countries. The purpose of this study is to review the pattern of demographic transition in developing countries. At first, this study focuses on the regional fertility transition. In Africa, the total fertility rate has decreased from 6.59 to 4.85 between 1960 and 2000. However, the rate has rapidly fallen from 5.76 to 2.34 in East Asia. The same pattern is found in Latin America. The mortality rate has also decreased in most of developing countries. It is also interesting to find that there is a clear difference among developing countries. In terms of crude death rate, Latin American countries show the lowest rate, while African countries remain still high rate. The study also shows the relationship between socioeconomic indicators and fertility/mortality in developing countries. The result supports the hypothesized relationship between education and fertility. However, the effects of urbanization and income on fertility do not show consistent result. About mortality rate, however, the study shows the significant relationship between urbanization and infant mortality rate, between income and mortality. The study finally emphasizes that we should include 'AIDS' in the study of mortality in African countries.

Over the past four decades reproductive behavior has changed slowly in much of the African countries. The average total fertility rate has fallen from six or more to near five today. Between 1960 and 2000 the largest fertility decline occurred in such Northern African countries as Algeria, Libya, and Morocco. The mortality rate has decreased in most African countries. The purpose of this study is to review the pattern of demographic transition in African countries. At first, this study focuses on the fertility transition. In Africa, the total fertility rate has decreased from 6.59 to 4.85 between 1960 and 2000. The mortality rate has also decreased in most of African countries. It is also interesting to find that there is a clear difference among African countries. In terms of infant mortality rate, Libya shows the lowest rate(17), while Mali and Somalia remain still high rate(142 and 133, respectively). This study tests a path model in which infant mortality rate acts as an intermediate variable between three socioeconomic variables and the fertility rate. The findings of this paper substantiate some of our hypotheses on the interrelationships among socioeconomic variables, infant mortality rate, and fertility rate. The result also shows the indirect effects of socioeconomic variables on fertility rate via infant mortality.

This paper gives an assessment criteria and reliability improvement for high frequency power supply of high efficacy electrodeless fluorescent lamp. The electrodeless fluorescent lamp system consist of electrodeless fluorescent lamp, high frequency power supply and lighting fixtures. The high frequency power supply has a shortest life at the system. Therefore It is need th assess the Failure Rate or mean Time To Failure(MTTF) for the high frequency power supply of electrodeless fluorescent lamp system and improve the reliability at design. We suggest the assessment criteria and improve methods of the reliability on the design basis for the electodeless fluorescent system.

최근 한정된 에너지를 기반으로 동작하는 센서 네트워크 환경에서 에너지를 효율적으로 사용하기 위한 많은 연구가 이루어지고 있다. 대표적인 연구로써 이벤트 발생 여부에 따른 노드의 가변 센싱 및 전송 기법의 경우, 특정 노드에서 네트워크 혼잡을 야기하여 전송 패킷의 손실 및 전송 모듈의 과다 사용으로 인한 네트워크의 수명이 감소하게 된다. 이를 해결하기 위해, 유전자 알고리즘을 기반으로 네트워크 패킷을 주변 노드로 분산시키는 TARP 가 제안되었다. 하지만 TARP 의 경우, 유전자 알고리즘의 핵심 단계인 적합도 평가에서 사용되는 적합도 함수에 인접 노드의 평균 데이터 전송량 및 데이터 분산만을 고려하여 트래픽을 분산하기 때문에, 전체 네트워크 수명에 대한 추가적인 고려가 필요하다. 이를 해결하기 위해 본 논문에서는 유전자 알고리즘 기반의 에너지 인식 트래픽 분산 기법을 제안한다. 제안하는 기법은 적합도 평가에서 잔여 에너지량 및 단일 노드의 데이터 전송량을 추가적으로 고려함으로써, 보다 효율적인 트래픽 분산을 수행하여 네트워크 수명을 증가시킨다. 제안하는 기법의 우수성을 보이기 위해 시뮬레이션을 통해 기존의 트래픽 분산 기법(TARP)과 제안하는 기법과의 성능을 비교하였다. 그 결과 기존 기법에 비해 평균 27% 이상의 네트워크 수명의 향상을 보였다.
