Compression pressure of individual cylinder and valve timing have big influence on combustion pressure, indicated mean effective pressure (IMEP), emission, vibration, combustion noise and many other combustion parameters. Therefore, uniformity of compression pressure and valve timing became one of most important engine design and production standard. Conventional method to evaluate compression pressure uniformity is to measure each cylinder pressure by mechanical pressure gage during cranking. This conventional method causes inaccuracy of cylinder pressure measurement because of different cranking speed results from battery status and also causes high manhour and cost. To check valve timing, related FEAD parts should be disassembled and timing mark should be checked manually. This study describes and suggests new methodology to measure compression pressure by analysis of start motor current and to check valve timing by cylinder pressure with high accuracy. With this new methodology, possibility to detect leaky cylinder and wrong valve timing was observed.

This paper deals with the procedures of effective mid-term Operation Planning establishment for painting shop in shipbuilding. and develop prototype system. In general, the block painting process consists of two stages such as blasting operation for surface preparation and painting operation for paint application for blocks. Weather condition is a potent Influence on those operations. The procedures consists of four steps, Load analysis, Generate alternative simulation plan. Implementation of Allocation automation module and Compare result of each simulation plan. Explain of each step. as follows, 1.step, Load analysis measure amount of assigned workload and manhour. 2.step, simulation scheme include alterable control variable such as overtime, weather. Auto allocating module carry out feasibility of simulation plan. 3.step, Allocation automation module are composed of three algorithms, as followings: - the block allocation algorithm that determines the number of blocks to be processed each day, - the team allocation algorithm that allocates blocks to worker groups. - the block arrangement algorithm that arrange blocks in blasting and painting cells. Since the block arrangement algorithm is conducted simultaneously with the team allocation algorithm, the total structure of the operating algorithms is considered to have two phases: first, daily load balancing with capacity limit and second, team allocation considering arrangement each day 4 step, Comparing result of each simulation plan. and select best simulation plan.

The mid-schedule planning of the ship is making a schedule about the process from cutting to erection. The ship consists of lots of blocks. This block has different process because of the shape of the block varies in accordance with the ship-type and the part position of the ship. The type and order of each block process initially must be generated for the mid-schedule planning. In this paper, the process planning, described as above is preparing the basic information before scheduler make a plan with the prepared manhour. The scheduling is done with this process planning which includes the information of the process order. This paper shows the research about three methods to design the process planning. First, investigate the expression method about information of the process planning for the mid-schedule planning in real workplace. Second, design the object of the process planning on the basis of investigating the expression method. Finally, develop the prototype of object on the basis of this designed process planning and then find the practical use in the mid-schedule planning. The object, which is developed in this paper, contains the main algorithm. In case of developing The Mid-Schedule Planning System, this object is expected to be utilized very easily as consisting another object.
