신뢰성이란 단기간에 측정되는 성능과는 다른 지표로서 흔히 장기간에 걸쳐 평가되는 품질의 척도이다. Oil Cooler는 공작기계(machine tools)의 주축 및 구동부 등에서 발생하는 열 변형을 제어하는 장치로서 공작기계의 신뢰성 향상을 위해서는 oil cooler의 신뢰성 개선이 이루어져야 한다. 본 연구에서는 oil cooler의 신뢰성 개선을 위해 고장률 데이터베이스를 이용한 신뢰성 예측과 이를 통한 취약부품 분석을 실시하고 신뢰성 시험기를 통한 oil cooler의 신뢰성을 평가하였다. 이를 통해 oil cooler의 정량적 신뢰도를 계산하였으며 신뢰성호 향상을 위한 공정기법을 개발하여 적용하였다. Oil cooler의 신뢰성 개선을 통해 공작기계 및 반도체 제조 장비 등과 같은 제조 시스템의 신뢰성 향상을 기대할 수 있으며, 제안된 기법을 이용하여 다른 기계류 부품의 신뢰성 평가 및 개선에 적용할 수 있다.

In this paper, we use and apply statistical tools to planning marketing strategy in advanced markets. New comers with low brand awareness in advanced markets can not attain high profit easily and need more effective strategic approach. In this paper, an effective and practical procedure is proposed to plan marketing strategies to satisfy the customer and increase the market share in advanced markets. The procedure consists of 5 steps : market survey, determining target brand, evaluation of brand attributes, gap analysis to determine the goal, and correlation analysis for effective improvement method. A case study is studied in the European market for electric appliances, between a Korean company and other companies. Various statistical tools are used to analyze the phenomena and some important conclusions are derived for effective marketing.

Large generator of power plant is very important. In order to protect large generator from faults, digital protective relay or IED is required. However, all protective relays for generators of the domestic power plant are operated by foreign products. And now, for technological independence from foreign and improvement of import substitution effect, IEDs using domestic technology are being developed. To evaluate performance of developing next-generation power devices, the study of the dynamic characteristics of the power plant, generator system modeling, fault simulation and analysis, should be considered. Specially, To obtain IEEE Standards COMTRADE format for relay operation test, generator system modeling and fault simulation using PSCAD/EMTDC tools must be preceded. Until now, a complete modeling of generator internal windings and fault simulation techniques dose not exist. In this paper, for evaluation performance of relay elements of developing IED, the generator system modeling and various faults simulation using PSCAD/EMTDC tools were performed. And then, the various transient phenomena through obtained relaying signal of developed modeling were analyzed.

Analytic Hierarchy Process (AHP) is a systematic and objective decision method that stratifies multiple criteria to determine various evaluation factors' order of priority. Since AHP requires several stages of analysis with complicated attributes, they normally rely on computer programs for the execution of such analyses. However, the existing AHP analytic tools carry the inconvenience of having to repeatedly input massive amounts data generated in every stage. This repetitious data entry process results in prolonged analysis times and higher possibility of errors, leading to decreased reliability of the results. Thus, in this study, we develop an analytic tool that effectively simplifies the data entry process in AHP analysis, for the purpose of reducing analysis times and increasing the reliability of the results.

Software Engineering covers techniques, tools, and methodologies needed to develop, acquire, and manage software in high quality, using appropriate resources. Therefore it can be said that the administration target of software engineering activities is the pursuit of high productivity for production of software in good quality. To do this, they should establish the engineering principle based on engineering theory and concept, and form the effective environment of engineering technology through improving development methods/methodology and tools of software engineering. In addition several guidances related to information system planning, acquisition, development, management, maintenance, and evaluation, etc. must be invented on the basis of software engineering to encourage efficiency of public information business yearly increasing fastand to make sure compatibility and interoperability.

Direct cutting tests was carried out to evaluate the dynamic performance of lathes under various cutting conditions. Significant factors influencing the chatter limits were identified through use of analysis of variance. Dynamic performances of two lathes were compared and the merits and drawbacks of the direct cutting test were discussed. Exciting-direct-cutting test method was newly proposed as a more rational method of dynamic performance test. The basic theory and experiments of the test were explained. The results shows that the method can be used as a powerful tool for the evaluation and the improvement of dynamic performance of machine tools.

This study has identified human performance research issues associated with the implementation of new technology in nuclear power plants (NPPs). To identify the research issues, current industry developments and trends were evaluated in the areas of reactor technology, instrumentation and control technology, human-system integration technology, and human factors engineering (HFE) methods and tools. The issues were prioritized into four categories based on evaluations provided by 14 independent subject matter experts representing vendors, utilities, research organizations and regulators. Twenty issues were categorized into the top priority category. The study also identifies the priority of each issue and the rationale for those in the top priority category. The top priority issues were then organized into research program areas of: New Concepts of Operation using Multi-agent Teams, Human-system Interface Design, Complexity Issues in Advanced Systems, Operating Experience of New and Modernized Plants, and HFE Methods and Tools. The results can serve as input to the development of a long-term strategy and plan for addressing human performance in these areas to support the safe operation of new NPPs.

For evaluating the radiation degradation of cross-linked polyethylene (XLPE) cable insulation due to the irradiated oxidation, XLPE was irradiated with ${\gamma}$-ray. For each irradiated samples, TGA, DSC, FT-IR, and tensile tests were carried out. Regarding radiation degradation, oxidative process was predominant. TGA, DSC and FT-IR can be useful tools for evaluating the radiation degradation due to the irradiated oxidation because these analyses need only small amount of samples. The results of TGA, DSC and FTIR analyses showed the similar tendency for irradiated degradation. They can be useful tools for evaluating the oxidation of insulating material by non-destructive testing.

Base-mounted type(BMT) driving assembly in CNC machine tools is an indispensable part to improve productivity by reducing tool changeover time and to meet the ever-increasing demand of precision machine tools. This study aimed to perform finite element analysis and geometric parameter optimization to improve the efficiency of BMT driving assembly. First, simulations for three-dimensional structural and vibration analysis were performed using ANSYS/Workbench on the initial geometric models of BMT driving assembly. After analyzing stress and deformation concentration zones, several new geometrical models were designed and evaluated by design of experiments and ANSYS/DesignXplorer. Through a series of analysis-evaluation-modification cycles, it was seen that designed models were effective in determining optimal geometry of BMT driving assembly.

The aim of this study was comparing measuring tools for detecting physical comfortness with variation of garment pressure. The measuring tools for detecting physical comfortness were EEG and survey questionnaire. Two low-pressure compressionwears and a commercial compressionwear (girdle) were tested. Results showed that the questionnaire survey well detected suffocation or motion comfortness. But it did not discrete the appropriate tightness of the compressionwears. The results of EEG analysis show that the absolute power of ${\alpha}$-wave value was elevated with the low-pressure compressionwears. It also showed lower stress value. The high-pressure compressionwear presented decreased absolute power of ${\alpha}$-wave value. It showed higher stress value. These results implicate that EEG can appropriatly indicate the change of physical comfortness of compressionwear. The appropriate tightness of compressionwear can be measured with EEG analysis rather than survey questionnaire.
