Purpose: The purpose of this research is to determine optimal replacement age using non-informative prior information and Bayesian method. Methods: We propose a novel approach using Bayesian method to determine the optimal replacement age in block replacement policy by defining the prior probability with data on failure time and repair time. The Marcov Chain Monte Carlo simulation is used to investigate the asymptotic distribution of posterior parameters. Results: An optimal replacement age of block replacement policy is determined which minimizes cost and nonoperating time when no information on prior distribution of parameters is given. Conclusion: We find the posterior distribution of parameters when lack of information on prior distribution, so that the optimal replacement age which minimizes the total cost and maximizes the total values is determined.

This paper shows theresults of centrifuge model experiments to investigate the behavior of a replacement method in dredged and reclaimed ground. For this experimental work, centrifuge model tests were carried out to investigate the behavior of a replacement method in soft clay ground. Basic soil property tests were performed to find the mechanical properties of clay soil sampled from the southern coast of Korea, which was used for the ground material in the centrifuge model tests. The reconstituted clay ground of the model was prepared by applying reconsolidntion pressure in a 1 g condition with a specially built model container. Centrifuge model tests were carried out under the artificially accelerated gravitational level of 50 g. Replacement material of lead with a certain degree of angularity was used and placed until the settlement of the replacement material embankment reached a state of equilibrium. Vertical displacement of the replacement material was monitored during tests. The depth and shape of the replacement, especially the slope of the penetrated material and the water content of the clay ground were measured after finishing tests. Model tests for investigating the stability of an embankment after backfilling were also performed to simulate the behavior of a dike treated with replacement and backfilled with sandy material. As a result of the centrifuge model test, the behavior of the replacement, the mechanism of the replacement material being penetrated into clay ground, and the depth of the replacement were evaluated.

Based on the previous studies proposed by many researchers about the evaluation method of replacement depth, a modified formula which incorporates the effect factors such as embanked height and load, replacement depth, cohesive force of original ground and unit weight of embankment etc, was suggested in this study. The new proposed formula was applied in the three construction sites of Kwangyang-Bay Area (Yeocheon, Youlchon, and Kwangyang) constructed by the compulsion replacement method. The application of the new method was investigated through these case studies in domestics. A modified bearing capacity parameter was estimated form the relationship of modified embankment loading and ultimate bearing capacity resulted from the site investigation, and the replacement depth was predicted by using this parameter. In addition, through the relationship analyses between each effect factors to the replacement depth in two areas, Yeocheon and Youlchon, an empirical prediction method which can evaluate the replacement depth in adjoining area was proposed. The predicted value obtained by new method is approximately similar to the measured replacement depth in Kwangyang area.

This paper presents a method for procedure-based on-line program replacement for user applications. To deal with the size change in the procedure to replace, the method uses the unmapped area of process address space for mapping a new version of procedure. The method is effective in that and it does not cause large performance loss during the replacement or require any additional software layer for the replacement. The method is illustrated in the SUN Solaris environment.

Purpose: Dynamic Replacement Method currently lacks of sufficient research, implementation cases, and case histories, compared with other comparable methods, such as Dynamic Compaction Method. Method: In this study, for Dynamic Replacement Method, the effective improvement depth and improved strength were analyzed for silty clayey soils. Results: Testbed test was performed to verify the effectiveness of Dynamic Replacement Method followed by the main dynamic replacement implementation on real construction site. Conclusion: A The effects of changes of soft ground depth, dynamic replacements' diameter, depth, spacing, and applied energy on dynamic replacement efficiency in silty clays were assessed and the followings were found: Empirical coefficient for soil $n_R$ of Dynamic Replacement Method was within the range of 0.14~0.32 and its ${\sqrt{WH}}$ is recommended to be 1.25~2.5 times of those from Dynamic Compaction Method.

The aim of this study is to decide the optimum replacement method when mineral Admistures as SILCA FUME and FLY ASH are used, as a part of practical use of ultra High-Strength Concrete. For this purpose, Four types of replacement methods are examined and the relationship between replacement methods and concrete properties is studied. As a result, workability and gain of strength are dependent on the replacement method of mineral Admixtures. The methods of using volumn ratio of cement in FIY ASH, weight ratio of cement in SILCA FUME are shown better workability and strength of concrete than any other replacement method.

Waste foundry sand of industrial waste which is happening by vast quantity according to fast development of industry has much the occurrence amount and processing method is depended on reclamation, and is using by fine aggregate for construction by recycling method among others. In this research Waste foundry sand powder into cement replace fare use possibility availability judge wish to Slump and air content decreased the replacement ratio increases by concrete special quality that do not harden according to experiment result, and unit capacity mass and bleeding increased the replacement ratio increases. Hardening concrete intensity special quality displayed strength improvement to replacement ratio 20%, and tendency that watertightness increases most in replacement ratio loft in watertight property appear. Considering the strength and watertight properties, the adequate usage of waste foundry sand powder is the 10% of replacement ratio.

The purposes of this study were to explore the rural women's labor by measuring labor value economically. To achieve the purpose, this study applied four methods : replacement cost method individual function, replacement cost method generalist, opportunity cost method and shadow wage method. The results of this study were as follows: 1) Time used for agricultural work and household work by with women were 5.3 hours and 3.8 hours each. 2) According to the methods used, the amounts of valuing rural women's labor were varied and ranged from 23,000 won to 43,000 won per day. This study might help recognize the degree of rural women's labor contribution to the household income of farm households and improve the socio-economic status of rural women through showing the productivity of the rural women's labor.

The ground work with of the research is constructed by a SCP method to improve clay ground in the sedimentary layer and sand ground in the reclamation layer at the same time as a reclaimed soft ground by reclaiming deep depth. Improved fine-grained soils in the sand ground decrease the ground improvement effect and have an influence on replacement ratio of SCP method. Fine-Grained soils which advances in sand ground reduces a from improvement effect, Makes affect in replacement ratio of SCP method. In this study, consideration about replacement ratio of sand ground, Tried to observe affects in replacement ratio of fine-grained soils SCP method of dredging reclamation ground. The result, replacement ratio which follows in the Japan Geotechnical Society experience-chart(1988) recording where fine-grained soils content will increase feebly, was visible the aspect which increases progressively, replacement ratio in compliance with Gibbs and Holts(1973) methods according to fine-grained soils increase is visible the tendency which decreases gradually with the enemy. Specially, according to case fine-grained content of Mizuno(1987) methods increases, replacement ratio suddenly was showing the trend which rises from of 50% and according to fine-grained soils increase was overestimated.
