Resilient pads play a major role in reducing the impact of loads on a rail in a rail-fastening system, which is essentially used for a concrete track. Although a compression set test is commonly used to measure the durability of a resilient pad, the static spring constant is often observed to be different from the fatigue test. In this study, a modified compression set test method was proposed to monitor the variations in the compression set and static spring constant of a resilient pad with respect to temperature and time. In addition, the life of the resilient pad was predicted by performing an acceleration test based on the Arrhenius equation.

The purpose of this study is to integrate Decision Theory Approach(DTA) and OR Theory Approach(OTA) systemically. and to develop Combination Theory Approach to build an optimal R&D project portfolio by strategies. To Integrate two approaches. Utility theory is introduced. Evaluation Results aye converted into utility values by the utility functions and the values are optimized by 0-1 programming. Scoring method and Integer programming is used to evaluation a correspondence with a goal and to allocation the limiting resources. And utility function is used to reflect the preference of decision makers on the project evaluation.

The purpose of this report is to suggest a new set of evaluation criteria which emphasizes the aspects of outputs and outcomes, and, therefore, reflects a portion of unique features of the KFDA's R&D programmes. Using the criteria, we demonstrate that the overall performance of KFDA's R&D programmes should be re-evaluated, and underscore that the characteristics and mission of a specific institute is also important in evaluating its performance. The results reveal that the overall performance of KFDA's R&D effort is more positive than what has been known. This difference essentially stems from the difference between the present that are universal but stiw and the suggested criteria that are based on missions of and results possibly achieved by the institute. In this regard the approach used in this case study could be taken into account in improving the evaluation system of government R&D programmes.

This paper proposes an R&D project selection methodology for green technology centered on developing country-oriented technology commercialization. Eight selection criteria are derived from the R&BD logic model : technology needs of developing countries, effectiveness of green technology, technological potentials, domestic technological capability, commercialization feasibility, economic benefits, business feasibility, and spillover effects of developing countries. 21 qualitative and quantitative indicators are then defined for each criterion. The analytic hierarchy process is conducted to produce relative importance of evaluation indicators and to set final priority scores of R&D project candidates. The working of the proposed methodology is provided with the help of a case study example of Green Technology Center. The proposed methodology is expected to be effectively utilized for policy practices of R&D project selection in the field of green technology.

Since risers have to be operated without being replaced during the design life time after installation, fatigue evaluation as well as strength analysis should be performed. The fatigue life of the riser is known to be dominantly influenced by wave loading and vortex induced vibration (VIV) phenomena. The fatigue life evaluation method and the behavior characteristics of the riser by the wave have been done a lot. Even though the VIV is an important source of fatigue damage for SCR, the evaluation method and behavior characteristics by VIV have not been studied relatively. Most of the S / W for calculating VIV fatigue are a semi-empirical model based on various theoretical models and experiments. For better understanding of VIV response, it is necessary to investigate the effect of parameters which affects the analysis result. This paper summarizes the results of parametric study performed to enhance the understanding of relationship between each parameter and fatigue analysis result.

Today's small and medium-sized enterprises in technology development for future industrial growth engine. In addition evaluation of the technological competitiveness of companies and countries for R&D investment as a significant item evaluated constantly expanding, he said. However, R&D productivity to properly measure and assess the companies rarely. This paper examines the existing technology, technology assessment, the study's limitations, the small and medium-sized companies to complement the U-IT TE and PSMP Model suggested by the design environment, and technology-related companies in the technology, the ability to comprehensively assess and as a tool to leverage, technical analysis and quantitative evaluation and production from the completion of the Process Model, presented want to formalize.

The purpose of this paper is to construct a CIDEAR (Cross Impact Data Envelopment Analysis Assurance Region) model which evaluates proposed R&D projects considering cross impacts among them and selects them to utilize R&D resources effectively as well as to maximize effectiveness of investments. For this purpose, the following six steps are designed as the main procedure. $\lceilDecision\;Theory\;&\;Evaluation\;Model\rfloor$, $\lceilAR\;Decision\;&\;Evaluation\;Model\rfloor$, $\lceilResource\;&\;Performance\;Analysis Model\rfloor$, $\lceilCross\;Impact\;Assumption\;Model\rfloor$, $\lceilpriority\;Oder\;Decision\;Model\rfloor$, $\lceilEfficiency\;Cause\;Analysis\;Model\rfloor$. $\lceilCIDEAR\rfloor$ model can deal with the affairs of R&D projects having the characteristics of mutual independence as well as mutual dependence. Hence it is possible to evaluate and select R&D projects more accurately than any other models.

It is difficult to develop objective evaluation techniques for the productivity in an R&D organization because there exists such as time lag between inputs and outputs, difficulties of measuring the influencing factors and results of a research and of comparing R&Ds with other objects towards innovation, and problems in identifying analysis elements. Particularly, governmental research institutes, pursuing publicity, have more difficulties in evaluating research achievement than the private ones. In evaluating the productivity of R&D organizations, this study aims at practically using the quantitative evaluation techniques by applying them to the public as well as private institutes. This will be finally contributing to decision making for effective management of R&D organization.

As aging occurs, ow skin gets more wrinkles, becomes drier and loses its elasticity. Validating the evaluation of skin elasticity is especially important, because it is not as visible as other signs of aging such as wrinkles. Here, we identified the correlation between age and the Parameters given by Cutometer, and (we present) the parameters of that reflect the decreases in skin elasticity along with ages (Ur/Uf, Ua/Uf, Ur/Ue, Ua, $r=0.687{\sim}0.725$). Also we developed an evaluation method to quantify the difference of skin by viewing or touching. A five-grade standard of Moire topographic photo scale on face was prepared using sensory evaluation of 20 to 61 year - old women. Based on this photo standard, scoring was performed using (a) 5-grade system by three specialists to obtain the consensus score. Significant negative correlations between age and results of Cutometer $(r=-0.687{\sim}-0.725)$, Moire topography scores (r=-938) were found. Finally we have shown the significance of the correlation between the result of Cutometer and the score of Moire topography (r=0.711). Our studies using Moire topography on face have confirmed that instrumental measurements reflect the decrease in shin elasticity, which is perceived visually.
