The purpose of this study is to analyze consumption of homemade organically processed food (HOPF), and to derive directions for consumption promotion of HOPF. A survey was conducted for quantitative analysis regarding consumption. This study used an Ordinal Logistic Regression Model to derive more significant results in analyzing factors of consumption. The findings was that younger consumers with high income are more likely to purchase HOPF. And those consumers with high price and quality contentment are more likely to purchase HOPF. And contentment with certification institutions and improvement of health have a significant positive relationship with consumption. Consumers were found to pay 51 percent more for HOPF than for non-HOPF products. This level show that the current level of price premium for HOPF is 51 percent higher than their desired level. In order to reduce the price premium for HOPF, effective policy programs should be developed. A targeted market strategy to sell HOPF to younger consumers with high income is needed to boost consumption. A strict certification management system should be established to enhance consumer reliability in HOPF.

Consumers differ with respect to the level of green attitudes and green purchase behavious and different consumer would have different perceptions on green market environment. This study attempted to explain how consumers perceive green market environment differently across different consumer groups in attitude-behaviour dimension in green consumption. After identifying the four consumer groups based on their attitude toward green purchase and green purchase behaviours, a multinomial logistic analysis and a stepwise discriminant analysis were conducted. This study found that reliability in green market was the most critical factor that contributes to enlarge positive green consumers. Also, the role of reference persons and adequate price of green products were also found to be important to stimulate green buying. By understanding the different role of those factors in each group of consumers, this study provided group-specific implications to expand green consumers.

The task complexity (TACOM) measure was previously developed to quantify the complexity of proceduralized tasks conducted by nuclear power plant operators. Following the development of the TACOM measure, its appropriateness has been validated by investigating the relationship between TACOM scores and three kinds of human performance data, namely response times, human error probabilities, and subjective workload scores. However, the information reflected in quantified TACOM scores is still insufficient to determine the levels of complexity of proceduralized tasks for human reliability analysis (HRA) applications. In this regard, the objective of this study is to suggest criteria for determining the levels of task complexity based on logistic regression between human error occurrences in digitalized main control rooms and TACOM scores. Analysis results confirmed that the likelihood of human error occurrence according to the TACOM score is secured. This result strongly implies that the TACOM measure can be used to identify the levels of task complexity, which could be applicable to various research domains including HRA.

Ultrasonic inspection system is consisted of the operator, equipment and procedure. The reliability of results in ultrasonic inspection is affected by its ability. Furthermore, the reliability of nondestructive testing is influenced by the inspection environment, other materials and types of defect. Therefore, it is very difficult to estimate the reliability of NDT due to various factors. In this study, the probability of detection, used logistic probability model and Monte Carlo simulation, estimated the reliability of ultrasonic inspection. The utility of the NDT reliability assesment is verified by the analysis of the data from round robin test applied these models.

Indexes of safety, restoration, damage impact, and management reliability were developed to assess reliability of drinking water distribution networks (DWDNs) management. The developed indexes were applied to evaluate the reliability of the pipeline management stage during unexpected mechanical and hydraulic accidents of components. The results were used to support the decision-making process in effective management and maintenance by enhancing the administrator's system understanding and by helping to create appropriate maintenance and management policies. The results of this study indicated that application of a management reliability index to assess DWDNs reliability may help create a more effective plan for establishing DWDNs management and maintenance.

로켓 엔진을 설계추력보다 낮은 추력으로 운용하면 신뢰도가 증가하는 것으로 알려져 있다. 따라서 엔진을 디레이팅하여 증가하는 신뢰도가 엔진을 과설계하기 위해 증가된 개발비를 상쇄할 수 있다면 개발비를 최소화하기 위해 엔진의 과설계를 고려할 수 있다. 본 연구의 목적은 엔진 과설계와 디레이팅이 신뢰도 및 비용에 미치는 영향을 설명하는 모형을 개발하고자 하는 것이다. 타이탄 로켓 엔진의 운용추력수준 및 연소시험횟수에 따른 신뢰도 자료에 로지스틱 회귀모형을 적합하여 신뢰도 성장을 모형화하고 Transcost 비용모형을 이용하여 엔진을 10% 과설계 하면 신뢰도 요구값에 따라 엔진 개발비를 9%에서 23% 감소시킬 수 있음을 보였다. 또한 이러한 엔진 개발비의 감소는 엔진이 사용하는 연료에 따라 달라짐을 지적하였다.

1972년에 소프트웨어의 신뢰도 문제가 제기되면서부터 개발 중인 소프트웨어의 신뢰도를 평가하고 목표치까지 신뢰도를 성장시키는 방법이 연구되었으며, 테스트 기간 동안에 소요되는 비용 문제까지를 포함하여 적정 인도시기를 결정하는 여러 방법이 제안되었다. 이러한 모델들 중 많은 연구에서 소프트웨어 테스트 전 단계를 거쳐서 테스트 노력이 상수인 것으로 가정하거나 또는 아예 고려하지도 않았으나, 그 후 몇몇 논문을 통하여 테스트 노력을 고려한 소프트웨어의 신뢰도 평가가 중요한 인자인 것으로 발포되었다. 여러 산업 현장의 경험 데이터에 의하면 그 형태가 지수함수형, 레일레이형, 웨이불형, 로지스틱형 테스트 노력 함수 중 하나인 것으로 보고되었다. 따라서 본 논문에서는 이 네 가지 형태의 테스트 노력을 가진 소프트웨어의 신뢰도 성장에 필요한 각종 파라미터를 구하는 방법에 대하여 제안한다. 개발 현장에서 관찰된 테스트 노력 데이터와 결함검출을 비교하여 어느 형태의 테스트 노력 곡선이 그 경우에 적합한가를 연구하는 한편, 목표 신뢰도에 맞는 발행 시기를 결정하는 문제를 연구한다.

Steam generator tubes play an important role in safety because they constitute one of the primary barriers between the radioactive and non-radioactive sides of the nuclear power plant. For this reason, the integrity of the tubes is essential in minimizing the leakage possibility of radioactive water. The integrity of the tubes is evaluated based on NDE (non-destructive evaluation) inspection results. Especially ECT (eddy current test) method is usually used for detecting the flaws in steam generator tubes. However, detection capacity of the NDE is not perfect and all of the "real flaws" which actually existing in steam generator tunes is not known by NDE results. Therefore reliability of NDE system is one of the essential parts in assessing the integrity of steam generators. In this study POD (probability of detection) of ECT system for ODSCC in steam generator tubes is evaluated using multivariate logistic regression. The cracked tube specimens are made using the withdrawn steam generator tubes. Therefore the cracks are not artificial but real. Using the multivariate logistic regression method, continuous POD surfaces are evaluated from hit (detection) and miss (no detection) binary data obtained from destructive and non-destructive evaluation of the cracked tubes. Length and depth of cracks are considered in multivariate logistic regression and their effects on detection capacity are evaluated.

Wood-plastic composites (WPC) are gaining market share in the building industry because of durability/maintenance advantages of WPC over traditional wood products and because of the removal of chromated copper arsenate (CCA) pressure-treated wood from the market. In order to ensure continued market share growth, WPC manufacturers need greater focus on reliability, quality, and cost. The reliability methods outlined in this paper can be used to improve the quality of WPC and lower manufacturing costs by reducing raw material inputs and minimizing WPC waste. Statistical methods are described for analyzing stiffness (tangent modulus of elasticity: MOE) and flexural strength (modulus of rupture: MOR) test results on sampled WPC panels. Descriptive statistics, graphs, and reliability plots from these test data are presented and interpreted. Sources of variability in the MOE and MOR of WPC are suggested. The methods outlined may directly benefit WPC manufacturers through a better understanding of strength and stiffness measures, which can lead to process improvements and, ultimately, a superior WPC product with improved reliability, thereby creating greater customer satisfaction.
