Enhanced Geothermal System (EGS) among geothermal system types enables to produce sustainable energy even in non-volcanic region while conventional geothermal energy has been restricted to obtain only from hot and permeable formation such as in volcanic regions. Successful EGS project in terms of economy, however, can be expected only when the project is managed effectively considering most of influencing factors (e.g., tangible and intangible resources, cost, time, risks, etc.). In particular, well construction is of the utmost importance in geothermal project as it dominantly influences on time and cost in the whole project. Therefore, when it comes to viable geothermal project without abundant experience, managing drilling economically and efficiently is inevitable. In this study, a project management system for well construction in geothermal project based on project control system including work breakdown structure and cost account was developed to predict and assess the performance of drilling and to visualize the progress.

To apply more effective the RCM analysis for railway vehicle, the maintenance cost per equipment should be considered together with failure criticality per equipment considered in existing. This paper is described the systematic calculation of maintenance cost considering the RCM analysis of railway vehicle. To calculate the maintenance cost systematically, the cost breakdown structure was established, and basic cost information and calculated cost items were defined. In addition, the linking between calculated cost and RCM analysis was considered. In future, this proposal would be used to analysis of cost effectiveness through RCM analysis of railway vehicle.

우리는 국가 경쟁력의 한 분야인 사업관리에 있어 계획, 수행, 성과관리, 개선에 최적의 프로세스 보유가 요구된다. 그러나 Project관리체계의 현 실태는 일정관리, 범위관리, 비용관리에 초점을 맞춘 일정관리체계, WBS(Work Breakdown Structure) 및 OBS(Organizational Breakdown Structure)관리, 비용관리체계의 부분 통합 혹은 서로의 연계 정도이다. 본 연구는 최적의 사업관리를 위하여 계약관리에 체계공학을 연계하여 계약 전에 WBS, IMP/IMS(Integrated Master Plan)/(Integratcd Master Schedule), TPM(Technical Performance Measurement) 등의 SEP(Systems Engineering Plan)와 계약 후의 이행을 검증 할 수 있는 과정의 Guideline을 제시하고, IEEE 1220, ANSI/EIA 632 순기 의거 개념설계부터 통합시험에 이르는 체계공학 순기에 따른 비용예측이 가능한 USC(University of Southern CalIfornia) 대학의 COSYSMO (Constructive Systems Engineering Cost ModeI)를 소개하고 적용 가능성을 고찰하며, Project의 전순기에 걸쳐 TPM 혹은 Quality를 비용과 일정에 통합하여 관리하는 PBEV(Performance Based Earned Value)모델을 소개하고 적용 가능성을 제시한다.

Needs for developing a better way of cost estimating process for public construction projects have been widely recognized. Those needs are mainly from the early phases of the project through the construction life cycle due to the its importance to the control process. In contrast to the traditional estimating method based on unit-price references, this research utilized this following process. The first step is analyzing the real cost data from actual cost activities (2000~2010) about the statement of P.S.C(Prestressed Concrete) Box Girder Bridge. The collected data was broken into four categories based on technical construction methods such as I.L.M(Incremental Launching Method), M.S.S(Movable Scaffolding System), F.S.M(Full Staging Method), and F.C.M(Free Cantilever Method). The second, actual design documents including the actual cost estimating documents, drawings and specifications were carefully reviewed to cluster the cost itemized statement from four categories. It was also attempted to seek the proper breakdown of standard works that are responsible for more than 95 percentage in each categories in terms of its cost. The third, this research comes up the index for standard unit materials and unit price of standard work and develops the approximate estimating model applying for the specification(length and breadth of bridges) per square area that the user takes as well as suggests the practical application plan within the original time alloted.

Silicon Carbide (SiC) is the material with the wide band-gap (3.26 eV), high critical electric field (~2.3 MV/cm), and high bulk electron mobility (~900 $cm^2/Vs$). These electronic properties allow attractive features, such as high breakdown voltage, high-speed switching capability, and high temperature operation compared to Si devices. In general, device design has a significant effect on the switching and electrical characteristics. It is known that in this paper, we demonstrated that the switching performance and breakdown voltage of IGBT is dependent with doping concentration of p-base region and drift layer by using 2-D simulations. As a result, electrical characteristics of SiC-IGBT deivce is higher breakdown voltage ($V_B$= 1,600 V), lower on-resistance ($R_{on}$= 0.43 $m{\Omega}{\cdot}cm^2$) than Si-IGBT. Also, we determined that processing time and cost is reduced by the depth of n-drift region of IGBT was reduced.

The use of a filler material in epoxy composite materials is an essential condition for reducing the unit cost of production and reinforcing mechanical strength. However, the dielectric strength of insulators decreases rapidly due to interactions between the epoxy resin and filler particles. In contrast to existing composite materials, nano-composite materials have superior dielectric strength, mechanical strength, and enduring chemical properties due to an increase in the bond strength of the polymer and nano material, It is reported that nano-fillers provide new characteristics different from the properties of the polymer material. This study is to improve the insulation capability of epoxy resins used in the insulation of a power transformer apparatus and many electronic devices mold. To accomplish this, the additional amount of nano-$SiO_2$ to epoxy resin was changed and the epoxy/$SiO_2$ nano composite materials were made, and the fundamental electrical properties were investigated using a physical properties and an analysis breakdown test. Using allowable breakdown probability, the optimum breakdown strength for designing an electrical apparatus was determined. The results found that the electrical characteristics of the nano-$SiO_2$ content specimens were superior to the virgin specimens. The 0.4 wt% specimens showed the highest electrical properties among the specimens examined with an allowable breakdown probability of 20 %, which indicates stable breakdown strength in insulating machinery design.

One of the crucial components in building information modeling (BIM) is data. To systematically manage these data, various research studies have focused on the creation of object breakdown structures and property sets. Specifically, crucial data for managing programs and payments involves work breakdown structures (WBSs) and cost breakdown structures (CBSs), which are indispensable for mapping BIM objects. Achieving this requires disassembling CBS quantities based on 3D objects and WBS. However, this task is highly tedious owing to the large volume of CBS and divergent coding practices employed by different organizations. Manual processes, such as those based on Excel, become nearly impossible for such extensive tasks. In response to the challenge of computing quantities that are difficult to derive from BIM objects, this study presents methods for disassembling length-based quantities, incorporating significant portions of the bill of quantities (BOQs). The proposed approach recommends suitable CBS by leveraging the accumulated history of WBS-CBS mapping databases. Additionally, it establishes a unified CBS code, facilitating the effective operation of CBS databases.

The importance of construction management has been increasing due to the fact that complex construction projects blend several different industries depending on the traits of the construction. This research was conducted to search for a method to enhance efficiency in cost management of construction project and meet the need for reusability of accumulated construction information. The process of detailed estimation and methodology for using standard unit price information has been developed to strengthen the interoperability in cost information by utilizing a standard classification system. The concept of ontology is proposed as a method of connecting construction information based on a standard breakdown structure to increasing the connectivity of the cost information in the construction project. Therefore, construction information knowledge framework is developed in order to improve the efficiency of the detailed estimation work process.
