The safety of nuclear power plants is analyzed by a probabilistic risk assessment, and the fault tree analysis is the most widely used method for a risk assessment with the event tree analysis. One of the well-known disadvantages of the fault tree is that drawing a fault tree for a complex system is a very cumbersome task. Thus, several graphical modeling methods have been proposed for the convenient and intuitive modeling of complex systems. In this paper, the reliability graph with general gates (RGGG) method, one of the intuitive graphical modeling methods based on Bayesian networks, is improved for the reliability analyses of dynamic systems that have various operation modes with time. A reliability matrix is proposed and it is explained how to utilize the reliability matrix in the RGGG for various cases of operation mode changes. The proposed RGGG with a reliability matrix provides a convenient and intuitive modeling of various operation modes of complex systems, and can also be utilized with dynamic nodes that analyze the failure sequences of subcomponents. The combinatorial use of a reliability matrix with dynamic nodes is illustrated through an application to a shutdown cooling system in a nuclear power plant.

Purpose: Root cause analysis (RCA) refers to any systematic process that identifies the causes that contribute to a focus event. The immediate cause of a focus event is often a symptom of underlying causes and may not truly identify the root causes that should be identified and addressed. Currently many RCA tools are available. Different investigators use different RCA tools on different issues. No standardized or commonly agreed way to analyse root causes exists. The purpose of this study is to propose the methodology of RCA process commonly useable for various issues. Methods: The methodology of RCA process is produced based on the hybrid RCA tools. The effectiveness assessment matrix of actions through the root cause candidates is presented. Results: No single RCA technique proposed has so far covered all necessary aspects. A hybrid approach which combines the best features of various techniques is proposed. The effectiveness assessment matrix helps us to identify the root cause to correct or eliminate system vulnerabilities effectively. Conclusion: This hybrid approach and effectiveness assessment matrix can provide guidance of RCA process across many industries and situations.

An organic light emitting diode (OLED), also light emitting polymer (LEP) and organic electro luminescence (OEL), is any light emitting diode (LED) whose emissive electroluminescent layer is composed of a film of organic compounds. The layer usually contains a polymer substance that allows suitable organic compounds to be deposited. They are deposited in rows and columns onto a flat carrier by a simple "printing" process. The resulting matrix of pixels can emit light of different colors. Such systems can be used in television screens, computer displays, small, portable system screens such as cell phones and PDAs, advertising, information and indication. OLEDs can also be used in light sources for general space illumination, and large-area light-emitting elements. In this paper, we develop the general guide line of the accelerated life test for assuring B10 life of AMOLED(Active Matrix Organic Light Emitting Diode) and PMOLED(Passive Matrix Organic Light Emitting Diode) which are widely used for display monitor less than 115 mm.

Fisher information matrix plays an important role in statistical inference of unknown parameters. Especially, it is used in objective Bayesian inference where we calculate the posterior distribution using a noninformative prior distribution, and also in an example of metric functions in geometry. To estimate parameters in a distribution, we can use the Fisher information matrix. The more the number of parameters increases, the more its matrix form gets complicated. In this paper, by using Mathematica programs we derive the Fisher information matrix for 4-parameter generalized gamma distribution which is used in reliability theory.

본 논문에서는 통신방의 2-상태 스취칭 실패함수를 구하기 위한 알고리즘과 단섭간 신뢰도 계성방법을 제시하였다. 통신망을 그래프로 모형화하고, 이 그래프에 대한 일련의 행열변환을 함으로서 모든 통신통로를 차단하는 최초컷-\ulcornerV 행열을 구하였으며 최소 컷-\ulcornerV행열로부터 2-상태 스위칭 실패함수를 구하였다. 또한 2-상태 스위칭 실패함수에 확률변수를 대응시켜 통신망의 단점간 신뢰도를 계정하였다. 제안된 알고리즘을 설명하기 위하여 몇가지 예를 보였으며 복잡하고 규모가 큰 망에 대한 단점간 신뢰도를 계정하기 위해서 전산기 프로그램을 제시하였다.

This investigation deals with reliability and sensitivity analysis of a repairable embedded system with standby wherein repairman takes multiple vacations. The hardware system consists of 'M' operating and 'S' standby components. The repairman can leave for multiple vacations of random length during its idle time. Whenever any operating unit fails, it is immediately replaced by a standby unit if available. Moreover, governing equations of an embedded system are constructed using appropriate birth-death rates. The vacation and repair time of repairman are exponentially distributed. The matrix method is used to find the steady-state probabilities of the number of failed components in the embedded system as well as other performance measures. Reliability indexes are presented. Further, numerical experiments are carried out for various system characteristics to examine the effects of different parameter. Using a special class of neuro-fuzzy systems i.e. Adaptive Network-based Fuzzy Interference Systems (ANFIS), we also approximate various performance measures. Finally, the conclusions and future research directions are provided.

무기체계 개발 및 운용과정에서의 신뢰도는 시스템이나 구성요소가 지정된 기간 동안 지정된 조건에서 필요한 기능을 수행하는 능력의 핵심 척도이며 임무달성의 평가를 위한 임무신뢰도는 전투의 승패를 좌우하는 중요한 지표이다. 임무신뢰도는 특정 기간 동안 주어진 임무가 이벤트나 환경상황에서 성공과 실패할 확률을 나타내며, 신뢰도 산출시 장비의 동작여부만을 고려하는 것이 아니라 시스템의 임무를 물리적 및 기능적으로 구분하여 임무의 수행 신뢰도를 산출하게 된다. 기존의 임무신뢰도는 임무에 따른 물리적인 연결만을 가지고 신뢰도 블록선도를 작성한 후 신뢰도를 산출하였다. 하지만, 현대 무기체계들은 발전하여 고도화되면서 장비 구조가 복잡해져 기능적 또는 물리적 연결에 따른 임무 구분이 필요한 경우 임무 연관성 표현이 불가하다. 이에 본 연구에서는 설계구조행렬과 인터페이스 매트릭스 기법을 사용하여 물리적 구조와 기능적 구조의 연관성을 표현하여 함정 전투체계 시스템 중 한 부분인 함포통제 시스템에 대하여 임무신뢰도를 산출하였다. 본 연구결과를 바탕으로 임무신뢰도 검증자료로 활용되기를 기대한다.
