In this research, the intensity of solar energy, which was injected to the different angle plane every hour day by day, was technically documented and quantitatively analyzed through actual observations. In order to group every days into days with similar intensity, graph was drawn with respect to time for every dary and each area value under the curve was calculated. Then, the search for grouped days having similar intensity curve patterns was carried out. In order to maximize the efficiency of solar energy systems, the optimum incident angle of absorber plate was derived.

The piping route of hydraulic hose is designed with avoiding interferences to surrounding components. However, in a real practice, the piping route is mostly decided with an expert's experiences on site due to the complexity of design. Thus, this paper proposes a design methodology of the optimized route of a hose. We use NURBS representation to describe the piping route, which is possible to be locally modified, and an energy minimization method is applied to avoid interferences to the surroundings. In other words, the NURBS curve describing a piping route is modified to meet the desired positions from minimizing the perturbation of the control points, and the strain energy of the curve is then optimized to make the curve natural. The proposed method is implemented and its feasibility is validated using the commercial CAD software, CATIA V5.

To reduce the cost and increase reliability of die and mold products, automation of the finishing (polishing) process is essential. A major element of automation is a reliable database and a knowledge base for polishing status. This paper presents a polishing expert system which can determine optimal polishing sequences and conditions by using an empirical formula and an experimental database. The simplex method was used for the curve fittings of the experimental results. Also a graphical user interface, which visualizes the optimized results, was developed.

본 연구에서는 IMT-2000 서비스의 상용화 실시 시기를 전문가 의견을 바탕으로 하여 예측한 결과 2001년 2월경에 첫 서비스를 실시할 것으로 나타나 전문가들은 대체로 빠른 진척을 예상하고 있음을 알 수 있었다. 또한 본 연구의 가장 중요한 부분인 IMT-2000 서비스 가입 수요예측에서는 가격 경쟁력에 대한 두 가지 경우에 따라 다른 모형을 제시하였다. 본 연구에서는 신제품에 대한 수요예측에 정성적 방법인 전문가 의견법과 정량적 방법인 성장곡선 모형을 결합하여 과거자료가 없는 신제품의 수요예측의 오차를 줄이고자 하였다. 각 성장곡선 모형에 필요한 계수를 전문가들의 주관적인 의견을 근거로 하여 추정하였다.

Fragility analysis is an effective tool that is frequently used for seismic risk assessment of bridges. There are three different approaches to derive a fragility curve: experimental, empirical and analytical. Both experimental and empirical methods to derive fragility curve are based on past earthquake reports and expert opinions which are not suitable for all bridges. Therefore, analytical fragility analysis becomes important. Nonlinear time history analysis is commonly used which is the most reliable method for determining probabilistic demand models. In this study, to determine the probabilistic demand models of bridges, time history analyses were performed considering both material and geometrical nonlinearities. Serviceability limit states for three different service velocities were considered as a performance goal. Also, support displacements, component yielding and collapse limits were taken into account. Both serviceability and component fragility were derived by using maximum likely hood methods. Finally, the seismic performance and critical members of the bridge were probabilistically determined and clearly presented.

목적: 조기위암 치료에 있어서 복강경 위암 수술이 새로운 패러다임으로 정착하고 있다. 기존에 시행하고 있던 개복에 의한 위절제술에 익숙한 경험 많은 외과의사들은 복강경 위암 수술은 시간이 많이 소요되며 기술적으로 습득하는데 많은 제약이 있음을 느끼며 복강경 수술에 소극적 자세를 취하는 경향이 있다. 이에 저자 등은 개복 위절제술에 경험이 풍부한 외과의사에 의한 복강경 위절제술의 learning curve를 결정하고, 이에 영향을 미치는 요인들을 분석하였다. 대상 및 방법: 2005년 4월부터 2006년 3월까지 한 명의 술자에 의하여 수술전 조기 위암(cT1N0)으로 진단 받고 복강경 보조하 원위부 위절제술(LADG) 및 $D1+{\beta}$ 림프절 곽청을 시행 받은 62명을 대상으로 하였으며 복강경 위절제술 시행을 위하여 전문팀을 구성하였다. 대상 환자를 6명씩 한 그룹으로 총 10그룹(마지막 그룹은 8명으로 구성함)으로 나누어 각 그룹의 평균 수술시간을 비교하여 learning curve 극복 전후의 나이, 성별, 수술 후 합병증, 절개창의 길이, 수혈유무, 적출된 림프절 개수, 수술 전 후 혈색소 변화 등을 분석하였다. 결과: 평균 수술 시간을 분석한 결과 여섯 번째 그룹 (31st case)부터 수술 시간의 Plateau를 보였다. 이에 저자들은 learning curve 극복시점을 30th case (7개월)로 간주하였으며 극복 전후 집단 간의 평균 수술시간을 분석하였을 때 각각 $239.0{\pm}69.7$분과 $170.0{\pm}32.6$분으로 유의하게 나타났다(P<0.05), 양 군 간 평균나이, 성별, BMI, 수술 전후의 혈색소 수치변화, 적출된 림프절 개수 등은 유의한 차이를 보이지 않았다. 또한 절개창의 길이, 수혈유무, 수술 후 합병증 유무도 양 군 간에 통계적으로 유의하지 않았다. 결론: 저자들의 LADG learning curve 극복은 30예(7개월)로 다른 보고보다 일찍 도달할 수 있었다. 이는 개복 수술의 풍부한 경험, 전문 수술팀 구성, 그리고 단기간 집중적인 시술에 의한 것으로 생각된다.

Background The Exoscope is a novel high-definition digital camera system. There is limited evidence signifying the use of exoscopic devices in microsurgery. This trial objectively assesses the effects of the use of the Exoscope as an alternative to the standard operating microscope (OM) on the performance of experts in a simulated microvascular anastomosis. Methods Modus V Exoscope and OM were used by expert microsurgeons to perform standardized tasks. Hand-motion analyzer measured the total pathlength (TP), total movements (TM), total time (TT), and quality of end-product anastomosis. A clinical margin of TT was performed to prove non-inferiority. An expert performed consecutive microvascular anastomoses to provide the exoscopic learning curve until reached plateau in TT. Results Ten micro sutures and 10 anastomoses were performed. Analysis demonstrated statistically significant differences in performing micro sutures for TP, TM, and TT. There was statistical significance in TM and TT, however, marginal non-significant difference in TP regarding microvascular anastomoses performance. The intimal suture line analysis demonstrated no statistically significant differences. Non-inferiority results based on clinical inferiority margin (Δ) of TT=10 minutes demonstrated an absolute difference of 0.07 minutes between OM and Exoscope cohorts. A 51%, 58%, and 46% improvement or reduction was achieved in TT, TM, TP, respectively, during the exoscopic microvascular anastomosis learning curve. Conclusions This study demonstrated that experts' Exoscope anastomoses appear non-inferior to the OM anastomoses. Exoscopic microvascular anastomosis was more time consuming but end-product (patency) in not clinically inferior. Experts' "warm-up" learning curve is steep but swift and may prove to reach clinical equality.

This paper presents a new combined forecasting method that is guided by the soft set theory (CFBSS) to predict business failures with different sample sizes. The proposed method combines both qualitative analysis and quantitative analysis to improve forecasting performance. We considered an expert system (ES), logistic regression (LR), and support vector machine (SVM) as forecasting components whose weights are determined by the receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve. The proposed procedure was applied to real data sets from Chinese listed firms. For performance comparison, single ES, LR, and SVM methods, the combined forecasting method based on equal weights (CFBEWs), the combined forecasting method based on neural networks (CFBNNs), and the combined forecasting method based on rough sets and the D-S theory (CFBRSDS) were also included in the empirical experiment. CFBSS obtains the highest forecasting accuracy and the second-best forecasting stability. The empirical results demonstrate the superior forecasting performance of our method in terms of accuracy and stability.
