The present study analyzed the productivity and cost of winching operations for evaluating the efficiency of a tractor-attached winch in a Pinus densiflora thinning site located in the Yangyang County of Gangwon-do. The mean yarding distance and mean timber volume were 29 m and 0.15 ㎥, respectively. In the 95 cycles of yarding operations, the uphill and downhill yarding operations constituted 51% and 49%, respectively, of the total yarding operations. The productivity of the uphill yarding operation was 2.28 ㎥/h, and the productivity of the downhill yarding operation was 1.89 ㎥/h. The findings of this study revealedthat productivity would increase by 0.5 ㎥/h when the rate of utilization of the machine is increased to 80% by reducing the operational delay time. The cost of the downhill yarding operation was 44,116 KRW/㎥, whereas that of the uphill yarding operation was 53,369 KRW/㎥. The difference in cost resulted from the difference in the number of yarding stems (stems/cycle). Furthermore, the results of the multiple linear regression equation developed for predicting the yarding operation times showed that productivity was significantly affected by working conditions such as yarding distance (m), the number of stems per cycle (stems/cycle), and the terrain slope (%) in the uphill and downhill yarding operations. Further research is required for developing an accurate prediction model equation according to a yarding direction.

The electromagnetic valve of pneumatic doors of EMUs has a high failure rate due to air leakage because it supplies air on and off to operate the doors repeatedly. The electromagnetic valve is a very important safety component for which a very high reliability is required because failure makes it impossible to operate the passenger cars. However, domestic urban railway operators maintain electronic valves of the EMU door under a fixed cycle with a spare period according to the full overhaul cycle of the EMU. An improvement of the current maintenance cycle was suggested based on the reliability function and mission reliability. Using the statistical program MINITAB for the operational data of EMU line 6, we analyzed the characteristics of the fault distribution and derived the shape and scale parameters of the reliability function. If we limit the specific reliability probability to under a certain failure rate and calculate its statistical parameters, we can calculate the allowable inspection period with mission reliability. Through this study, we suggested a maintenance period based on RCM (reliability centered-maintenance) to improve the reliability of electromagnetic valves from 68% to 95%.

Recently, Software Development was applied to new-approach methods as a various form : client-server system and web-programing, object-orient concept, distributed development with a network environments. On the other hand, it be concerned about the distributed development technology and increasing of object-oriented methodology. These technology is spread out the software quality and improve of software production, reduction of the software develop working. Futures, we considered about the distributed software development technique with a many workstation. In this paper, we discussed optimal release problem based on a stochastic differential equation model for the distributed Software development environments. In the past, the software reliability applied to quality a rough guess with a software development process and approach by the estimation of reliability for a test progress. But, in this paper, we decided to optimal release times two method: first, SRGM with an error counting model in fault detection phase by NHPP. Second, fault detection is change of continuous random variable by SDE(stochastic differential equation). Here, we decide to optimal release time as a minimum cost form the detected failure data and debugging fault data during the system test phase and operational phase. Especially, we discussed to limitation of reliability considering of total software cost probability distribution.

In this paper, a 5V small-area NMOS-diode eFuse OTP memory cell is proposed. This cell which is used in PMICs consists of a 5V NMOS transistor and an eFuse link as a memory part, based on a BCD process. Also, a regulated voltage of V2V ($=2.0V{\pm}10%$) instead of the conventional VDD is used to the pull-up loads of a VREF circuit and a BL S/A circuit to obtain a wider operational voltage range of the eFuse memory cell. When this proposed cells are used in the simulation, their sensing resistances are found to be $15.9k{\Omega}$ and $32.9k{\Omega}$, in the normal read mode and in the program-verify-read mode, respectively. Furthermore, the read current flowing through a non-blown eFuse is restricted to $97.7{\mu}A$. Thus, the eFuse link of a non-blown eFuse OTP memory cell is kept non-blown. The layout area of the designed 1kb eFuse OTP memory IP based on Dongbu HiTek's BCD process is $168.39{\mu}m{\times}479.45{\mu}m(=0.08mm^2)$.

These days, business environments are rapidly change and companies are taking the pressure about a customer value enhance to the continuance from the market. Therefore companies propel various innovative and strategic initiatives for a customer value enhancement. Also Information Technology is rapidly becoming part of our everyday lives due to its fast development, the functions and responsibilities of CSC(Consolidated Service Center) are undergoing revolutionary change. The function of sales organization based on the manpower and human networks are gradually shrinking, and CSC is slowly establishing itself as the company's core parts as its function expands and its operations are in the spotlights. Among these, many organizations are currently introducing ITSM concept for primary processes as a means of achieving synergy in operational excellence, reducing costs and improving service quality. In this thesis, we propose an extended CSC, which is applied ITIL Process to traditional BMP. It also needs to manage more effectively business process model, to modeling rapidly changing business process, and to developing its business application programs whenever and whatever it is changed. The ITSM(IT Service Management), which is an ITIL tool, effectively managing for dynamically changing the business process.

It is desired to use a domestically manufactured ocean data buoy for the long-term operational ocean monitoring. The ocean data buoy manufacturing technology was introduced through the research cooperation with the Qingkong University of Taiwan. The introduced ocean data buoy system was further expanded and improved for more efficient application for the marine environmental monitoring in Korea. The size of the ocean data buoy is 2.5 m in diameter, which is smaller compared to the NOAA's 3.0 m discus buoy to allow easy land transportation and ocean deployment as well. From the dynamic response test of the buoy carried out numerically, it was shown that the measurement of waves with period greater than 4 seconds is acceptable. The measurement and control system of the data buoy were improved to increase the number of measuring parameters, to reduce power consumption and to enhance better data analysis and management. Each component of the improved data buoy system was described in detail in this paper. Water quality sensors of water temperature, salinity, DO, pH and turbidity were added to the system in addition to the marine meteorological sensors of wind speed and direction, air temperature, humidity, air pressure and wave. Inmarsat satellite communication system is used for the real-time data telemetry from the buoy deployed offshore. A field performance test of the improved and domestically manufactured buoy was carried out for a month at the open sea off Pohang together with DatawelI's Wave-rider buoy to compare the wave data. The results of the test were satisfactory.

Increasing evidence suggests that gut microbiota underpin the development of health and longevity. However, our understanding of what influences the composition of this community of the longevous has not been adequately described. Therefore, illumina sequencing analysis was performed on the gut microbiota of centenarians (aged 100-108 years; RC) and younger elderlies (aged 85-99 years; RE) living in Bama County, Guangxi, China and the elderlies (aged 80-92 years; CE) living in Nanning City, Guangxi, China. In addition, their diet was monitored using a semiquantitative dietary questionary (FFQ 23). The results revealed the abundance of Roseburia and Escherichia was significantly greater, whereas that of Lactobacillus, Faecalibacterium, Parabacteroides, Butyricimonas, Coprococcus, Megamonas, Mitsuokella, Sutterella, and Akkermansia was significantly less in centenarians at the genus level. Both clustering analysis and UniFraq distance analysis showed structural segregation with age and diet among the three populations. Using partial least square discriminate analysis and redundancy analysis, we identified 33 and 34 operational taxonomic units (OTUs) as key OTUs that were significantly associated with age and diet, respectively. Age-related OTUs were characterized as Ruminococcaceae, Clostridiaceae, and Lachnospiraceae, and the former two were increased in the centenarians; diet-related OTUs were classified as Bacteroidales, Lachnospiraceae, and Ruminococcaceae. The former two were deceased, whereas the later one was increased, in the high-fiber diet. The age and high-fiber diet were concomitant with changes in the gut microbiota of centenarians, suggesting that age and high-fiber diet can establish a new structurally balanced architecture of gut microbiota that may benefit the health of centenarians.

This paper describes the performance improvement of an inrush current limiter to prevent damage or malfunctions in power converters due to the inrush current. When the power converter of military radar is operated, the circuit breaker of the power converter is often activated because the overcurrent flows through the circuit breaker of the power converter. Therefore, this study performed a cause analysis of the problem, which is a larger current flow than the intended current(250A). The operation principle of an inrush current limiter and SCR (Silicon Controlled Rectifier) used in the inrush current limiter was analyzed. As a result, the overcurrent flow through the circuit breaker was found to be due to dv/dt triggering of SCR. Based on cause analysis, this paper proposes a technique by adding the resistor in front of the SCR to prevent an unnecessary inrush current. Finally, the effectiveness of the improvement was verified by measuring the output current in the inrush current limiter. The power converter equipped with the improved inrush current limiter operated for more than 1 year without the circuit breaker of the power converter being activated.
