According to current design provisions for shear strength of reinforced concrete slabs, critical slab sections around columns should be modified in the presence of openings in slabs to consider the effect of openings on the shear strength of slabs. Although the method of estimating the ineffective part of critical section due to openings are explained in codes, the real math for calculating it is somewhat complex and cumbersome. This paper classifies different cases of the location and geometry of columns and openings, respectively, and derives corresponding equations for estimating ineffective part of critical section for each case.

Recently, BAI(Board of Audit and Inspection of Korea) has recommended that "Result unit cost" of Korean government apply to national power plant construction project when plant owner corporations estimate budget price for tender. but nuclear industry have difficulties with this suggestion. the purpose of this study is to review the "Result unit cost" and problem with application of NPP construction cost estimating. And proposed the direction of application of "Result unit cost" to NPP construction cost estimating.

Unit level logistic regression model with mixed effects has been used for estimating small area proportions, which treats the spatial effects as random effects and assumes linearity between the logistic link and the covariates. However, when the functional form of the relationship between the logistic link and the covariates is not linear, it may lead to biased estimators of the small area proportions. In this paper, we relax the linearity assumption and propose two types of kernel-based logistic regression models for estimating small area proportions. We also demonstrate the efficiency of our propose models using simulated data and real data.

At the moment the housing demand needs estimated at the level of provinces and big cities. But at the level of small cities and smaller administrative unit like Goon, it is not, for lack of appropriate estimating method. Therefore it is very much required to develope appropriate estimating method at such levels. This study is an attempt to apply to some local areas the estimating method developed by Professor Miyqke of Japan as is suggested in his article. "How to Estimate the Housing Demand in Relation with the Different of Poulation Structure." The result shows that the applied local areas showed repective characteristics distinguished from one another in the pattern of housing demand, to prove the approprateness of the method when applied to the areas at the level of small cities and Goons.

The reflectometry for locating the fault at a cable is the same as a problem estimating the time delay between the incident and the reflected signals. In this paper, we propose a method for estimating the time delay between the two signals. The proposed method is based on the modeling of the Gaussian enveloped linear chirp signal in the Gaussian noise environment. The phase and the instantaneous frequency of the received signal are estimated by linear Kalman filtering. From the estimated instantaneous frequency, we can measure the time interval between the center frequencies of the incident and the reflected signals. The time interval is the same as the time delay between the incident and the reflected signals. In a simulation assuming that the cable has open fault at the end of the cable, the proposed method showed a good result in estimating the time delay.

The mechanical characteristics of materials are very essential in structural analysis for the accuracy of structural calculations. The estimation modulus of elasticity of concrete ($E_c$), one of the most important mechanical characteristics, is a very complex area in terms of analytical models. Many attempts have been made to model the modulus of elasticity through the use of experimental data. In this study, the neuro-fuzzy (NF) technique was investigated in estimating modulus of elasticity of concrete and a new simple NF model by implementing a different NF system approach was proposed. A large experimental database was used during the development stage. Then, NF model results were compared with various experimental data and results from several models available in related research literature. Several statistic measuring parameters were used to evaluate the performance of the NF model comparing to other models. Consequently, it has been observed that NF technique can be successfully used in estimating modulus of elasticity of concrete. It was also discovered that NF model results correlated strongly with experimental data and indicated more reliable outcomes in comparison to the other models.

The maternal weigh-suckle-weigh (WSW) method for estimating milk production of sows was further evaluated by comparing this to the traditional WSW method. Twenty one estimates of hourly milk production were obtained by both methods. Total hourly milk production between the two methods was not significantly different (292.4 vs 303.3 g/h, p > 0.05). Hourly milk production determined by the maternal WSW method was highly correlated with hourly milk production estimates using the traditional WSW method ($R_2$ = 0.94, p < 0.001). When corrections for metabolic and salivary losses were made, the milk production figures for the maternal WSW method were approximately 27% less than those estimated by the traditional WSW method.

The Conventional approach for estimating the locations of transmission line shunt faults has been to measure the apparent impedance to the fault from a line terminal and to convert the reactive component of the impedance to line length. But, these methods do not adequately address the problems associated with the fault location on distribution systems. This thesis presents a technique that estimates the location of shunt fault on a radial distribution system that has several single and multiphase laterals. Tapped loads and non-homogenity of the distribution system are take into account. The developed technique, which can handle shunt faults was tested to evaluate its suitability. Results from computer simulation of faults on a model of a 25KV distribution lines like real system are presented. The results approved that the proposed technique works well for estimating the locations of the distribution line shunt faults.

A method for estimating the cylindrical shape of a sound radiator is presented. It assumes that sound field can be measured by a linear array. A sound field, due to the radiator vibrating with uniform velocity, can be determined by its shape, size, and orientations. Measured data also can be varying from the array's position. To predict the shape of radiators from these measured data, mathematical relation between geometric parameter and measured information is needed. Assume that a radiator is cylinder, the magnitude and phase of measured pressure is related with the length and diameter of radiator, respectively. In this paper, the method for estimating length and shape of a finite cylinder by using its radiated pressure is proposed and verified through experiment.
