Let X and $X_t$ denote the lifetime and the residual life at age t, respectively. X is said to be a NBUL (new better than used in Laplace transform order) random variable if $X_t$ is smaller than X in Laplace order, i.e., $X_t{\leq}_{LT}X$. We propose a new test statistics for testing exponentiality versus NBUL class of life distribution. The tests by Hollender and Proschan (1975) and the generalized Hollender and Proschan test by Ains and Mitra (2011) are considered as special cases of the our of test statistics. Our proposed test statistics is simple, consistent and asymptotically normal. Efficiency and powers of the test statistics for some commonly used distributions in reliability are discussed. Finally, real examples are presented to illustrate the theoretical results.

The ERS(Embedded Rail Track system) is constructed in the world due to a slab track system having maintenance free, high structural safety, and deduction of noise and vibration. The ADRI-ERS is developed as Korean type. This paper shows that the design of ADRI-ERS and experiments according to DIN EN 13481-5 and Korea high speed train test guidelines. The ADRI-ERS has high structural safety in pull-out test, longitudinal resistance test, and fatigue test. The design method of ADRI-ERS is proposed by two design constants due to the result of experiments also.

The persence of distinct tones in environmental noises leads to an increasing anaoyance especially if the tones are of long duration. Before 1992 in Germany the tonal content of noises had to be subjectively estimated by the acoustic consultants and up to six dB could be added to the measured Leq depending on the tonality content of the noise under consideration. In order to give an objective basis for tonality estimated a DIN norm proposal for tonality evaluations was introduced in 1992. This proposal is compared with two different procedures : the prominece-ratio calculation which was proposed by Bienvenue and Nobile /4/ and the proposal of Ares /5/. The output of the three models is contrasted with subjective tonality judgements. It turns out that the prominence ratio model yields the best agreement with the subjective tonality assessments od the sound set chosen.

Polystyrene is frequently used for food packaging because of its eaxy processing rigidity , and low cost. Styrene, which is present in detectable amouts in the polymer, is usually considered to be the substance responsible for the possible tainting of a polystyrene-packed food by migration. The contamination of foods and beverages by trace amounts of materials which have migrated from plastics use din packaging is a concern both on the grounds of adversely affecting product quality and of food safety. These lead to increasing attention to the potentional hazards of a large variety of plastic materials and foods. In this paper we reviewed the history of Styrene and various analytical methods of sample preparation and detection to assess the extent to which styrene is present in food-grade polystrene materials and to what extent it leaked into foods and food stimulants.

Water quality of the Koejong-reservoir was estimated by using the ecological model to evaluate the effects of industrial sewage discharge. State variables consist of POC, DOC, phytoplankton, DIP, DIN, DO and COD. Initial conditions for the compartment are applied to the model based on the observed results. The reproducibility was found to be satisfactory with the relative error ranging between the calculated value and the observed value. Water quality simulation was conducted by applying additional industrial sewage discharge into the Koejong-reservoir. The concentrations of COD, Chl.a, DIP and COD showed fluctuations of a narrow range. The increment percentages of Chl.a, COD and DIP were 26.6%, 20.2% and 18.2%, respectively. In the case of DO, the concentration decreased 4.8%.

Correlation between pH and color of Kimchi during fermentation was investigated to visually evaluate the fermentation degree of Chinese cabbage Kimchi. Color "a" and 'H" values in the white part, "a", "H" and "C" values in the green part of the Kimchi showed a high correlation with pH, respectively. "a" and "H" values of Kimchi juice. "L" and "V" values of red pepper attached to kimchi had a high correlation with pH. The color of the white part was light greenish white in unripended Kimchi, but changed to redish in ripended kimchi. Green part changed from light green to redish green as ripening. Red pepper powder attached to kimchi showed redish color in unripening, but changed to yellowish re din over ripening.

The recent developments in the field of reliability and safety is the realisation that these aspects are not only a function of the product but also of the organisation realising this product. Comparing with old DIN 0801 and new method IEC61508, quantitative analysis is required at not only product's quality but also organization's level. Product's life cycle also should be evaluated by analyzing relevant or maturity of business processes. This paper shows the necessity for an analysis on all aspects in a safety certification process, and presents an overview of the available tools and techniques for the various quadrants. Especially, tools and techniques for IEC61508 quadrant C are unavailable currently. Therefore, this paper propose the method which improves the maturity of an organization on reliability management.

GDI(Gasoline Direct Injection( engine technology is well known as a new technology since it can improve fuel consumption and meet future emission regulations. But the GDI has many difficulties to be solved, such as complexity of injection control mode, unburned hydrocarbon, and restricted power. A 2-D shape combustion chamber was adopted to investigate mixture formation and combustion characteristics of GDI engine. Spray and combustion experiments were performed by changing the injection timing. injection pressure an din-cylinder flow in Rapid Compression and Expansion Machine(RCEM).Through the experiments, the detailed characteristics of fuel spray and combustion was analyzed by visualizing the in-cylinder phenomena according to the change of injection condition, and the optimal fuel injection timing and fuel injection pressure were obtained.

공작기계의 고속화, 다축화, 복잡화에 따른 열변형 오차가 공작기계에서 발생하는 오차의 대부분을 차지하고 있다. 이러한 열변형 오차를 최소화 하기 위해 공작기계의 발열부에 차가운 오일을 공급하여 냉각함으로써, 열변형을 제거하는 장치가 오일쿨러이다. 오일쿨러는 제어 방법에 따라 On-off, 가스 바이패스, 인버터 방식 등이 사용된다. 초정밀 공작기계에는 주로 가스 바이패스 및 인버터 방식이 사용되는데, 인버터 방식의 경우 고가(高價)인 관계로 주로 옵션 형태로 사용된다. 가스 바이패스 방식 오일쿨러는 인버터 방식에 비해 가격이 저렴하고 구조가 간다하며 정밀한 온도제어를 할 수 있지만 부하가 낮은 경우 구조적인 한계로 인해 온도제어 불안정을 발생시킨다. 본 연구에서는 기존 바이패스 방식 오일쿨러에서 나타나는 문제점을 해결하고 보다 정밀한 온도제어를 위해 2개의 전자밸브를 갖는 듀얼 밸브 방식 오일쿨러 시스템을 개발하였다. 개발된 듀얼 밸브 오일쿨러 시스템의 성능검증을 위해 정격운전, DIN 8602 규격, ISO/DIS 230-3 운전모드에서 성능을 비교/분석하였다.

This paper identifies GNSS education and training program under Geomatic field of study. GNSS education programs is evaluated $vis-{\grave{a}}-vis$ new-products. Data on Geomatic knowledge generation in the era of the GNSS derivatives over the 1975 - 2003 period are examined. The emerging trends and patterns; in particular for selected Asian nations will be dissected in detail. The knowledge indicator used in this study is the patent ownership against the background of emergence of new core technologies and innovations in the field of GNSS. Looking at the dismal performance of Geomatic professionals in terms of innovative activities in most part of Asian and Malaysia in particular, is it there is something that holding up these professionals from doing so? With our universities and numerous polytechnics offering Geomatic program, more is expected from them. Is it a problem of lack or inadequacy of skills? Or is it these professionals are too busy and being narrowly focused on doing something else?
