This paper investigates different QA standards such as KEPIC QAP, KEPIC END 1200, ISO/1EC 17025 etc. and as a result defines QA elements for Nuclear Power Plant equipment qualification(EQ) in Korea. This paper also proposes a practical QA certification system appropriate for an Integrated Organization for EQ which is being planned to be established in Korea. Since the level of the Korean EQ technology is comparatively low, the Korean manufacturers of the Nuclear Power Plant(NPP) equipment have usually used overseas EQ services. The EQ related organizations in Korea are making efforts to construct the integrated EQ system. In connection with this, it is required that the QA elements and QA certification system suitable for EQ in Korea be developed.

This paper is deals with the preventive replacement for the equipment which fails only when the total amount of damage reaches a prespecified failure level. Most of replacement model use time as their decision variable, but it is not appropriate for the cases in which failures dependent on their cumulative damage levels. In this paper, a new type preventive replacement model is introduced in which an equipment is replaced before failure when the cumulative damage reaches a certain level or replaced on failure, whichever occures first. The optimal replacement damage levels which minimize total expected cost are obtained by the Dynamic programming Method when the number of use of the equipment is finite. A numerical example is also presented. The optimal preventive replacement policy when the equipment will be used for a finite time span is also discussed.

The maintenance cost in K Steelworks has been continuously increased in proportion to the production cost. However, there seems to be a possibility of reducing cost through the optimization of maintenance actions. The failure types of the equipment in steelworks ate various with different failure cost. Thus the failure rate and cost of each type of failures should be considered simultaneously when the optimum maintenance period is to be determined. It is considered that the equipment undergoes periodic replacement and a specified number of incomplete preventive maintenance actions are performed during a replacement period. Assuming that the time to failure follows a Weibull distribution, the parameters of the failure rate are estimated using the maximum likelihood estimation. The optimal replacement period is determined to minimize the average cost per unit time. As the result of analysis it is suggested that the existing maintenance period for a hot-rolling equipment can be extended significantly.

In this paper, we proposed verification methods to prove the effectiveness of automatic test equipment (ATE) for weapon systems. Since the test results from the unproven ATE is not reliable and its use is limited as objective data, it is essential to verify the test equipment in order to guarantee the quality level of the unit under test (UUT). Through the suggested methods, it is applied to the ATE of the tactical information communications network (TICN) system to confirm the verification results and to describe the validation results.

This study suggests a system for preventing and coping with diverse industrial accidents available for taking place in the industrial field by designing a context-aware system of the solar cell equipment with the use of multi-sensor. It installs multi-sensor in the surrounding and major positions of the solar cell equipment, acquires data on the surrounding situations and solar cell equipment from this device, and then save it into the local memory and transmits it to the server. The saved data recognizes a situation based on the context-aware algorithm and judges depending on the perceived result. An administrator comes to have environment available for monitoring the status on the production field and equipments with real time according to the judged outcome through the context-aware algorithm. The context-aware system in the industrial field, which is put today in the ubiquitous environment, will become a service of offering appropriate information for dealing with industrial accidents through real-time inspection.

This paper introduced a impact load estimation method by examining vibration transfer path analysis (TPA). The theoretical background and the load quantification procedure are explained, and a case study of hydraulic breaker is reported. We explained the merits and limitations of the load estimation method of TPA, and improvement method was suggested through case analyses of drilling equipment. The necessity of R&D of load-estimation technology was discussed. A new strategy for developing new techniques for impact load measurement was proposed.

Chemical plants should perform Quantitative Risk Assessment that evaluates types of accident, frequency and damage which can happen through using the hazardous equipment and the hazardous materials for preventing and preparing industrial disasters. It is necessary that Chemical plants should include the reliability database which efficiently evaluate the Quantitative Risk Assessment. So in this study, we suggest a which methodology applies Quantitative Risk Assessment on the basis of the constructed data to imply the reliability of industrial facilities and equipment, collection of reliability data, system analysis and development of software.

IIoT stands for Industrial Internet of Things used in manufacturing, healthcare, and transportation in networked smart factories. Recently, IIoT's environment requires an automated control system through intelligent cognition to improve efficiency. In particular, IIoT can be applied to automatic calibration of production equipment for improved management in industrial environments. Such automation systems require a wireless network for transmitting industrial data. Self-calibration systems in laser transmission paths using wireless networks can save resources and improve production quality by real-time monitoring and remote control of laser transmission path. In this paper, we propose a wireless networked system for self-calibration of laser equipment that requires a laser transmission path, and we show the results of the prototype evaluation. The self-calibration system of laser equipment measures the coordinates of the laser points with sensors and sends them to the host using the proposed application protocol. We propose a wireless network service for the wired motor controller to align the laser coordinates. Using this wireless network, the host controls the motor by sending a control command of the motor controller in an HTTP message based on the received coordinate values. Finally, we build a prototype system of the proposed design to verify the detection performance and analyze the network performance.
