This paper describes a case study on the analysis of RAM(Reliability, Availability, and Maintainability) factors obtained from the Endurance-Test for a military full-tracked armored vehicle. In analysing RAM factors of the vehicle we used such a statistical technique as method of Maximum-Likelihood for estimating parameters.

In this study, an improved method of setting the RAM goals for surveillance system using OMS/MP and field operations data of similar systems is suggested and a case study of surveillance system A is given. Newly suggested methods for setting the RAM goals consist of the procedures such as On/Off time analysis of configuration equipment based on OMS/MP, field operations data analysis of similar systems, adjustment of preventive maintenance time, the number of corrective maintenances, and TALDT in wartime, introducing new subsystem to reliability structure of surveillance system, and reflecting expert's opinion. A case study of surveillance system A shows that newly suggested method in this study for setting the RAM goals is reasonably acceptable and practically applicable to other similar systems.

Purpose : The purpose of this study is to compare the RAM (reliability, availability and maintainability) value in the acquisition phase with operational period for air weapon systems. The objective is to determine if the value of RAM is sufficient in the field, and look for any difference from the target value to some extent. Methods : For a case study, the ${\bigcirc}{\bigcirc}$ training aircraft is selected. Data from the two acquisition sources are utilized. One is the operational data in domestic aircraft through research and development, and the other is the data from imported aircraft. The two different sources were collected independently and distinctly. Results : According to the analysis, the domestic aircraft shows high deviation in RAM value compare to the imported systems. This is due to the effort of continuous reliability improvement. In the aspect of maintainability, the result shows a slight deviation, and the availability meets the requirement. Conclusion : The results of this study can be used in finding a way that can be effectively applied to the sustainability in the weapon system. If the RAM performance is significantly lower than the target value, then it is necessary to improve the design activities so that they can achieve the RAM target value.

The weapon system is getting more and more expensive, complex and smarter. Therefore, efficiently and effectively, it is important to operate the weapon system. OMS/MP is a document to quantify operational factors like as environment, mission, mode etc. It is important data to perform RAM analysis in early weapon development phase and operate better a weapon system. This paper present a process and framework of OMS/MP for a naval ship with a deep analysis of relevant domestic and abroad case studies. It propose OMS/MP analysis framework based on wartime scenario and mission area analysis. This result will contribute not only improvement for the availability of a naval ship but also enhancement of RAM analysis process.

Considering the applicability of Kuz-Ram model, which has been used extensively for predicting rock fragmentation size distribution by blasting, to domestic open-pit limestone mine, a total of 21 blasting tests have been executed at an open-pit limestone mine in eastern Gangwon of South Korea. A comparative analysis of field measured value and Kuz-Ram predicted value showed that there are a considerable amount of error in the predicted values regardless of application of various correction parameters for rock factor and uniformity factor; up to 56.45% in mean fragmentation size and 37.52% in uniformity index. Also the problem of applying different correction parameters has been derived even though a similar blasting pattern has been adopted for a same blasting bench. The authors therefore suggest that Kuz-Ram model needs to be modified for a proper application to domestic open-pit limestone mine.

In this paper, fabrication of sample holder was studied for an analysis of electromagnetic(EM) wave property in W-band(75 GHz~110 GHz). First of all, a propagation theory of EM wave was considered in the rectangular waveguide, and measurement technique was suggested for analysis of characteristics. A sample holder using in W-band was designed and fabricated, and used for analysis of material property and absorption ability using RAM samples. As a result, the sample holder test was verified exactly for measuring EM wave property of RAM sample. In the future, the proposed sample holder would like to be used for the EM wave property analysis in W-band.

In this research, it will be examined on mathematical model of AMOS software program that ues for Covariance Structure Analysis. if we have not understood to mathematical model of Covariance Structure, we fail to understand Structural equation modeling. Similarly If We were not understand to mathematical model of AMOS Software, we do not use Software adequately. Therefore we examine two sorts of Software that be designed for Structural equation modeling or Covariance Structure Analysis. In this research, We will focus on 8 assumption of Structural equation modeling and compare AMOS(Analysis of MOment Structure) program with LISREL(Linear Structure RELation) program. We found that A Program of AMOS Software have materialized with RAM(Reticular Action Model).

As the hydrogen industry grows, expansion of infrastructure for hydrogen supply is required, but the safety of hydrogen facilities is concerned due to the recent accidents at the Gangneung hydrogen tank and the Norwegian hydrogen fueling station. In this study, the damage range and impact analysis on the on-site hydrogen fueling station was conducted using Hy-KoRAM. This is a domestically developed program that adds functions based on HyRAM. Through this risk assessment, it was evaluated whether the on-site hydrogen fueling station meets international standards and suggested ways to improve safety.

Recently the sub-micron structured substrates of 0.74 ${mu}ell$ track pitch and 800 $\AA$groove depth are required for DVD-RAM and the track pitch is expected to be narrower as the need for the information storage density is getting higher. For the accurate replication of the land-groove structure in the stamper to the plastic substrates it is important to control the injection -compression molding process such that the integrity of the replication for the land-groove structure is maximized. in the present study polycarbonate substrates were fabricated by injection comression molding and the land-groove structure regarded as one of mold temperature and the compression pressure on the integrity of the replication were examined experimentally. An efficient design methodology using the response surface method (RSM) the central composite design(CCD) technique and the analysis-of-variance (ANOVA) was developed to obtain the optimum processing conditions which maximize the integrity of the replication with a limited number of experiments.

Background: This meta-analysis aimed to evaluate the incidence of tumor recurrence, postoperative myasthenia gravis, postoperative complications, and overall survival after limited versus total thymectomy for Masaoka stage I and II thymoma. Methods: A systematic search of the literature was conducted using the PubMed, Embase, MEDLINE, and Cochrane databases to identify relevant studies that compared limited and total thymectomy in Masaoka stage I-II patients. The quality of the included observational studies was assessed using the Newcastle-Ottawa Scale. The results of the meta-analysis were expressed as log-transformed odds ratios (log ORs), with 95% confidence intervals (CIs). Results: Seven observational studies with a total of 2,310 patients were included in the meta-analysis. There was an overall non-significant difference in favor of total thymectomy in terms of tumor recurrence (pooled log OR, 0.40; 95% CI, -0.07 to 0.87; p=0.10; I2=0%) and postoperative myasthenia gravis (pooled log OR, 0.12; 95% CI, -1.08 to 1.32; p=0.85; I2=22.6%). However, an overall non-significant difference was found in favor of limited thymectomy with respect to postoperative complications (pooled log OR, -0.21; 95% CI, -1.08 to 0.66; p=0.64; I2=36.1%) and overall survival (pooled log OR, -0.01; 95% CI, -0.68 to 0.66; p=0.98; I2=47.8%). Conclusion: Based on the results of this systematic review and meta-analysis, limited thymectomy as a treatment for stage I and II thymoma shows similar oncologic outcomes to total thymectomy.
