Risk exists in all construction projects and resides among the collection of subcontractors and their array of individual activities. Wherever risk resides, the interrelation of participants to one another becomes paramount for the way in which risk is measured. Inherent risk becomes recognizable and quantifiable within network schedules in the form of consuming float - the flexibility to absorb delays. Allocating, owning, valuing, and expending such float in network schedules has been debated since the inception of the critical path method itself. This research investigates the foundational element of a three-part approach that examines how float can be traded as a commodity, a concept whose promise remains unfulfilled for lack of a holistic approach. The Capital Asset Pricing Model (CAPM) of financial portfolio theory, which describes the relationship between risk and expected return of individual stocks, is explored as an analogy to quantify the inherent risk of the participants in construction projects. The inherent relationship between them and their impact on overall schedule performance, defined as schedule risk -the likelihood of failing to meet schedule plans and the effect of such failure, is matched with the use of CAPM's beta component - the risk correlation measure of an individual stock to that of the entire market - to determine parallels with respect to the inner workings and risks represented by each entity or activity within a schedule. This correlation is the initial theoretical extension that is required to identify where risk resides within construction projects, allocate and commoditize it, and achieve actual tradability.

Achieving a target operational availability is more economical and efficient than having many quantities of the weapon system, since the cost of weapon system becomes expensive. The intent of this study is twofold; first, we develop the simulation model to determine the optimal inventory level of the maintenance float while achieving a target operational availability of the Korean-made helicopter. The quantity decision model considers following factors such as a reliability. a turn around time(TAT). a protection level for inventory, and so on. Second, we analyze whether the existence of a lateral transshipment among bases and the reduction of TAT relate to an inventory level and the operational availability. The research result shows that both TAT and lateral transshipment have an effect on reducing the inventory level of the maintenance float and improving an operational availability.

A study on compressive garments guarantee the required pressure and form depending on the type of disease and the state of injury can be used in the preventive treatment of cardiovascular disease. This research is to provide a preliminary data to develop medical clothing products, especially knitted compression garments. Starting from analyzing knitted structure of imported pressure goods to apply to test samples, 11 kinds of knitted stretchy fabrics were manufactured under the various knitting conditions, then their tensile, mechanical and hand properties were measured. In comparison size changes by knitting structure, tuck stitch applied structure showed an increase in course direction and decrease in wale direction. Float stitch applied structure indicated the contraction of size in width because of unformed loops and floated yarn on the technical back of fabric. As a result of tensile properties in tuck and float applied structure, tensile strength was increased in the course direction. On the other hand, the more loops overlapped due to the tuck and float stitch, the more decreased their elongation and elastic recovery were. In case of mechanical properties, as the tuck and float stitch were overlapped double or triple the bending and shearing properties were risen. Accordingly, the drape of fabric becomes stiff, and its surface becomes rough and uneven. The measurements of hand properties showed that the value of KOSHI, FUKURAMI NUMERI in tuck and float applied structure are higher than the plain structure. This results from the relationship between the mechanical and hand properties.

Recently, mega-float offshore structure is studied as one of the effective utilization of the ocean space. And mega-float structure are now being considered for various applications such as floating airports, container yard, offshore cities and so on. This mega-float structure is relatively flexible compared with real floating structures like large ships. when we estimate dynamic responses of these structures in waves, the elastic deformation is important, because vertical dimension is small compared with horizontal. The analysis of the dynamic response as it receives regular wave is studied. The finite element method is used in the analysis of structural section of this model. And the analysis is carried out using the boundary element method int eh fluid division. In order to know the characteristics of the dynamic response of the mega-float structures, effects of wavelength, water depth, and wave direction on dynamic response of the floating structure are studied by use of numerical calculation.

The midwater pair trawl which is being used at present in Korea have several problems. Firstly, it is difficult to control the net height on high towing speed. Secondly, net breaking often occurs owing to floats and thirdly, the volume of net on the net drum is so large. This study is aiming for examining the possibility of application for the Korean midwater pair trawl through the model experiment of non-float midwater pair trawl. The model of non-float midwater pair trawl was manufactured as 1/100 of the full scale net which is being used in bottom pair trawl for 850ps class considering the Tauti's Similarity law. The model experiment was carried out to analyze the opening efficiency according to the variation of lower warp length and the opening efficiency was investigated between th proto type and non-float type. The results obtained can be summarized as follows ; 1. The hydrodynamic resistance of non-float type was about 10~20% smaller than that of the proto type and it increased about 1ton according to the increase of dL at the condition of the same flow speed. The resistance acting on the lower warp decreased about 5% but that of the upper warp increased according to the increase of lower warp length (dL) at the condition of the same flow speed. 2. The net height of the non-float type decreased almost linearly according as the increased of flow speed and it increased in a logarithmic functional form with the increase of the lower warp length at the condition of the same flow speed. On the decreasing rate of the net height, the non-float type was lower than the proto type and the difference of the decreasing rate was about 12% at 3.0 knot, 25% at 4.0 knot, 25% at 4.0 knot respectively when dL was 30m. 3. The net width of non-float type was not varied so much as only 2m range and was larger than that of proto type. 4. The mouth area of non-float type decreased in a exponential functional form. On the decreasing rate of the mouth area, the non-float type was lower than the proto type. The filtering volume increased in a logarithmic functional form with increasing flow speed and the filtering volume of proto type decreased steeply over 3.0knot, but that of non-float type increased until 4.0knot. 5. The optimal length of lower warp was when the value of dL was about 30m and the optimal position of front weight was at the connection point of four net pendants.

This study analyzed the effects of the knit stitch type, fiber composition, and yarn thickness on the mechanical properties of knitted fabric. The results were as follows: The course density was the highest in the case of the rib stitch. On the other hand, the wale density was the highest in the case of the float stitch. The thickness was the highest in the case of the rib stitch. The same results were obtained even for different fiber compositions and yarn thicknesses considered in this study. The burst strength of wool knit fabric was higher than that of A/W knit fabric. The stiffness was the lowest in the case of the plain stitch. The same results were obtained even for different fiber compositions and yarn thicknesses. The pilling properties were excellent for all knit stitches, fiber composition, and yarn thicknesses as pilling degree : 5. The air permeability decreased in the following order : rib > plain > float stitch. The same results were obtained even for different fiber compositions and yarn thicknesses. The heat retention rate decreased in the following order : rib > float > plain stitch. The same results were obtained even for different fiber compositions and yarn thicknesses.

At negative-g condition, a float-type valve can open the passage of fuel in order to it flows continuously through a pressurized fuel tank system. Since specialized test conditions and high-cost supports are required, it is truly difficult to test the valve in a real high-speed test. Therefore, this paper contains performance analysis of a float-type fuel supply valve through flight tests conducting roll and negative-g maneuvers.

The quality of float solution deeply influences the performance of CDGPS because the theories being used in the integer ambiguity resolution method are derived under the assumption of AWGN. But in real world, the properties of noises are far from AWGN, especially when multipath are concerned. It results in the bias in float solution which affects the success rate of integer ambiguity and the precision of position in CDGPS. This paper designs an augmented Kalman filter using shaping filter and Kalman filter for the performance improvement of CDGPS on multipath. The experimental results with real measurements show that the correct integer ambiguity is always found while the success rates of WLSQ and ordinary Kalman filter are 5% and 18%, respectively. Eventually, the position accuracy is also improved by using the proposed algorithm.
