Roller test rig is the test facility for acquiring the data related dynamic characteristics of rolling stocks handily. The test method using roller test rig could be convenient to Set information about hunting and others rather than using field test. However, adopting this method brings about the inconvenient calibration process for measured data. This kind of additional effort results from the difference of contact condition between field test and test roller rig. In this paper, the numerical approach is used to get the amount of calibration. The analysis results of the field test are compared with results of the roller test rig to know what kind of alternation happens according to the change of contact condition.

Two methods, the bin averaging method and least square method, are often used in calibrating wind turbine test sites. The objective of this work was to determine a better method to predict the wind speed at wind turbine installing point. The calibration was done at the test site on a complex terrain located in Daegwallyeong, Korea. It was performed for two different cases based on the IEC 61400-12 power performance measurement standard. The wind speeds averaged for 10 minutes ranged between 4 m/s and 16 m/s. The wind-direction bins of each meteorological mast were 10 degrees apart, and only the bins having data measured for more than 24 hours were employed for the test site calibration. For both cases, the two methods were found to yield almost same results which estimated real wind speed very closely.

This paper describes the development of the calibration system for a multi-axis force/moment sensor and its uncertainty evaluation. This calibration system can generate the continuous forces (${\pm}Fx,\;{\pm}Fy$ and ${\pm}Fz$) and moments (${\pm}Mx,\;{\pm}My$ and ${\pm}Mz$). Many kinds of multi-axis force/moment sensors in industries should be carried out the characteristic test or the calibration with the calibration system that can generate the forces and the moments. The calibration systems have been already developed are the disadvantages of the low capacity, the generation of step forces(10N, 20N ...) and step moments(1Nm, 2Nm ...) with weights, the high coasts in manufacture and so on. In this paper, the calibration system for a multi-axis force/moment sensor that can generate the continuous three forces and three moments was developed. Their ranges are $0{\sim}2000N$ in all force-directions and $0{\sim}400Nm$ in all moment-directions. And the system was evaluated in the expanded relative uncertainty. They were ${\pm}0.0004$ in all forces ${\pm}Fx,\;{\pm}Fy$ and ${\pm}Fz$, and ${\pm}0.0004$ in all moments ${\pm}Mx,\;{\pm}My$ and ${\pm}Mz$.

A proficiency test is one of programs which Korea Research Institute of Standards and Science(KRISS), as national metrology institute, is putting in operation for the mutual recognition arrangement. The Fluid Flow Group of KRISS evaluated the measurement capability for liquid flowmeter calibrator of the national calibration and test organizations. The uncertainty of national standard system was estimated in accordance with Guide to The Expression of Uncertainty in Measurement (ISO), and the turbine flowmeter, which was used for the round-robin test as a reference flowmeter, was characterized. The round-robin tests with the turbine flowmeter package were carried out in 1995 and 1999. The test results of the organizations and those of KRISS agreed within $\pm0.2$%. It is found thus that the organizations have the traceability of the national standard for liquid flow measurement.

Most of gimballed inertial navigation systems(GNIS) are calibrated periodically to maintain their inherent accuracy. The existing calibration techniques using the conventional schuler test with the least square method and the multiposition test take a long time and have some problems in procedures. To solve this problem, calibration method using a linear Kalman filter is proposed by us. In this paper, the calibration method by the change of Schuler period is studied in order to improve the calibration performance of the gimballed INS. First of all, it is shown that the observability of Kalman filter is also enhanced the Schuler period is decreased. Simulation results show that the calibration performance using the present scheme is improved according to the decrease of the Schuler period and the calibration time is shortened extremely, too. And our proposed technique shows desirable estimation performance for the g-sensitive errors of inertial sensors in particular.

A sand-cone method is commonly used to determine the density of the compacted soils. This method uses a calibration container to determine the bulk-density of the sand for use in the test. The density of the test or compacted soil is computed on the assumption that the calibration container has approximately the same size or volume and allows the sand to fall approximately the same height as a test hole in the field. However, in most cases the size or shape of test hole is not exactly the same as the calibration container. There is certain discrepancy between sand particle settlement or arrangement in the laboratory calibration and in the field testing, which may cause an erroneous determination of in-situ density. The sand filling process is simulated in the laboratory and its effect on the determination of density is investigated. Artificially-made holes with different heights and bottom shapes are prepared to simulate various shapes of the test hole in the field. The sands with different gradations are used in the testing to examine how sand grain size influences the determination of density in the field.

One of the methods for investigation of mechanical behavior of materials is numerical simulation. For simulation, its need to model behavior is close to real condition. PFC is one of the rock mechanics software that needs calibration for models simulation. The calibration was performed based on simulation of unconfined compression test and Brazilian test. Indeed the micro parameter of models change so that the UCS and Brazilian test results in numerical simulation be close to experimental one. In this paper, the effect of four micro parameters has been investigated on the uniaxial compression test and Brazilian test. These micro parameters are friction angle, Accumulation factor, expansion coefficient and disc distance. The results show that these micro parameters affect the failure pattern in UCS and Brazilian test. Also compressive strength and tensile strength are controlled by failure pattern.

목적: 판독용 모니터의 성능을 평가하는데 있어 불필요한 시간 및 인력 등을 줄이고 판독의 최적화 유지와 모니터의 upgrade 시기, 그리고 교체 시기를 결정할 수 있는 시스템을 구축하는데 필요한 적절한 수준의, 일정기간의 성능평가 관리 주기 및 calibration 주기를 결정하고자 하였다. 대상 및 방법: 판독용 LCD 컬러 모니터(CCL350i, Totoku, Japan) 20대를 대상으로 2007년 3월부터 8월(첫 calibration 후 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8개월째)까지 매달 1회에 걸쳐 한 달 주기로 총 6회의 성능 평가를 하였다. 성능 평가에 사용된 측정 도구는 휘도계(DTP 94 39630, X-Rite Inc. U.S.A.)와 조도계(LX-101 Q031871, Lutron, U.S.A.) 그리고 모니터 성능관리 프로그램인 AAPM TG 18 protocol를 이용하였다. 성능평가 항목은 기하학적 왜곡(geometric distortion), 반사 테스트(reflection test), 휘도 반응 평가(luminance response evaluation), 휘도 균일도(luminance uniformity), 분해능(resolution), 노이즈(noise), 베이링 그레어(veiling glare), 색도(chromaticity) 등 8개 항목을 포함하였다. 결과: 기하학적 왜곡 평가와 반사 테스트, 휘도 균일도 테스트, 분해능, 노이즈 평가, 베이링 그레어 테스트, 색도 테스트 등은 AAPM TG 18에서 권고하는 기준치에 모두 부합되었다. 휘도반응평가 중 예측되는 최대 휘도와 관측되는 휘도의 편차 항목에서 4개월째부터 25%(4대)의 모니터가 8개월째까지 기준 편차를 벗어나기 시작하였으며, 8개월째에는 다른 모니터 7대에서도 편차를 보이기 시작하여 전체적으로 55%(11대)의 모니터에서 기준 편차를 벗어나고 있었다. 또한 대조도 반응의 편차 항목에서 4개월째부터 예측되는 최대 휘도와 관측되는 휘도의 편차의 기준치를 벗어나기 시작한 4대의 모니터 중 5%(1대)에서 4개월째부터 8개월째까지, 또다른 2대는 8개월째부터 편차를 보여 전체적으로 8개월째에는 15%(3대)의 모니터에서 기준 편차를 벗어났다. 결론: 성능평가의 주기는 calibration 후 4개월째부터 오차 범위를 벗어나는 결과와 모니터 수 그리고 성능 검사에 소요되는 인력 및 시간을 고려할 때 3개월에 한번씩 평가함이 효율적이라고 판단된다. 또한 calibration 주기는 8개월째부터 50% 이상에서 편차를 보인 결과 및 성능평가 주기를 고려할 때 calibration 후 6개월을 주기로 calibration을 다시 시행하여야 할 것으로 판단된다.

The inclusion of covariates in the model often affects not only the estimates of meaningful variables of interest but also its statistical significance. Such gap between statistical and subject-matter significance is a critical issue in huge sample studies. A popular huge sample study, the sample cohort data from Korean National Health Insurance Service, showed such gap of significance in the inference for the effect of obesity on cause of mortality, requiring careful consideration. In this regard, this paper proposes a sample size calibration method based on a Monte Carlo t (or z)-test approach without Monte Carlo simulation, and also proposes a test procedure for subject-matter significance using this calibration method in order to complement the deflated p-value in the huge sample size. Our calibration method shows no subject-matter significance of the obesity paradox regardless of race, sex, and age groups, unlike traditional statistical suggestions based on p-values.
