A real tine simulator of running power train for a construction vehicle was developed. The simulator mainly consists of following two parts; (1) running power train part and (2) running load generation part. An optimal servo control algorithm was adopted for designing the multi-variable digital control system of the simulator. By experiments investigating response characteristics under step-wise variation or pre-determined scenario of target vehicle velocity and target load torque, it was verified that the simulator could reproduce physical situations at and actual vehicle with excellent similarity.

This presentation derives a distribution function of the terminal value and running maximum of two-dimensional Brownian motion {X(t) = (X$_1$(t), X$_2$(T))', t > 0}. One random variable of the joint distribution is the terminal time value of the Brownian motion {X$_1$(t), t > 0}. The other random variable is the partial-time running maximum of the Brownian motion {X$_2$(t), t > 0}. With this distribution function, this presentation also derives an explicit pricing formula for a barrier option whose monitoring period of the option starts at an arbitrary date and ends at another arbitrary date before maturity.

The purpose of this study is to empirically analyze whether or not, if a community social service center was affiliated with a governing body running other community social service centers, the center would have better organizational performance in comparing to an independently running center. Data was collected from a nationwide mailed and self-administered survey, which 237 centers out of 343 community social service centers responded. Even if, the response rate was 72%, 218 centers were finally analyzed due to the weakness of reliability and incompleteness. By the way, measurement of organizational performance as the dependent variable has been substituted of the results of nationwide organizational evaluation project as the secondary data. One of findings is that 68% of 218 responding centers appeared to be affiliated with a governing body which running more than three other centers, while 41% being affiliated with a body which running more than five other centers. However, a logistic regression analysis which using organizational performance as the dependent variable, has failed to verify the hypothesis that a center which affiliated with a governing body running other centers has better organizational performance when comparing to an independent center. The researcher assumes that a part of governing bodies has better performance and improves competitiveness while the other larger part of them pursues simple organizational growth. Thus, this situation made that the overall evaluation of being affiliated with a large governing body was not positive.

The main functions of suspension system of railway vehicle are isolating vibration from track irregularity to car-body for the Ride quality and keeping its stability with limitation of vehicle's movement. These two functions conflict with each other, then it is impossible to achieve both of performance with traditional passive suspension which has constant characteristics. So, to improve this situation the active suspension was suggested and in specially the semi-active suspension is noticed for its effectiveness on cost despite of its lower performance than full-active suspension. In this study the control logic made through LQG theory was designed with simplified vehicle model and variable damper model defined by $1^{st}$ order system, then the analysis of simulation results was done to understand influence on the performance of semi-active suspension with running conditions and response characteristics of variable damper.

The purpose of this study was to find the relationship between Achilles tendon angle, angular velocity from 2D cinematography utilized to easily analyze the functions of shoes, ankle joint moment, knee joint moment, and hip joint moment from 3D cinematography utilized to predict the injury. Also, this study was to provide the optimal standard to analyze the injury related to the shoes. Subjects in this study were 30 university male students and 18 conditions (2 types of running speed, 3 of midsole hardness, 3 of midsole height) were measured using cinematography and force platform. The results were as following. 1) Hip joint abduction moment was effected by many variables such as running speed, midsole height, maximum achilles tendon angle, ground reaction force. 2) Knee joint rotational moment in running was approximately 1/10 - 1/4 times of the injury critical value and eversion moment was approximately 1/4 - 1/2 times of the injury critical value. 3) Ankle joint pronation moment in running was 1/3 - 1/2 times of the injury critical value. 4) Knee joint rotational moment was found to be irrelevant with maximum achilles tendon angle or angular velocity. 5) Pronation from running was thought to be relevant to rather eversion moment activity than rotational moment activity of knee joint. 6) Plantar flexion abductor of ankle showed significant relationship with the ground reaction force variable. 7) When the loading rate for ground reaction force in passive region increased, extensor tended to be exposed to the injury. Main variables in biomechanical analysis of shoes were impact absorption and pronation. Among these variables, pronation factor was reported to be relevant with knee injury from long duration exercise. Achilles tendon angle factor was utilized frequently to evaluate this. However, as the results of this study showed, the relationship between these variables and injury relating variable of knee moment was so important. Studies without consideration on this finding should be reconsidered and reconfirmed.

This paper derives a distribution function of the terminal value and running maximum of two-dimensional Brownian motion {X($\tau$) = (X$_1$($\tau$), X$_2$ ($\tau$))', $\tau$ 〉0}. One random variable of the joint distribution is the terminal time value, X$_1$ (T). The other random variable is the maximum of the Brownian motion {X$_2$($\tau$), $\tau$〉} between time s and time t. With this distribution function, this paper also derives an explicit pricing formula for an outside barrier option whose monitoring period starts at an arbitrary date and ends at another arbitrary date before maturity.

The purpose of this study was to analyze which factors have had impacts on extension export insurance charge of Korean export insurance. In order to attainment of this study, an empirical study was proceeded. The export insurance charge was hired as the dependent variable and export insurance premium, insurance compensation charge, export insurance collection charge and export insurance fund were used as independent variables. Data was used for estimation are the annually data from 1969 to 2007. From results of this analysis, we find the hired variables have highly correlation among them and the most influential factor turns out to be export insurance fund. Main results of this study was as follows : i) The export insurance fund must be increased immediately. ii) It is necessary that Korea Export Insurance Corporation give their attention to the compensate amount of export insurance compensation on specific insurance item. iii) It is necessary that Korea Export Insurance Corporation extension the collection efforts of the export insurance. iv) A reasonable raising of export insurance premium need to be done.

There is some evidence that one of major factors to produce plantar fasciitis depends on the magnitude of the foot arch strain. The orthotics that can reduce the foot arch strain during locomotion may be effective to prevent or treat plantar fasciitis. Therefore, the purpose of this study was to investigate the effect of control condition and three types of foot orthotics on 3-dimensional foot arch strain that can produce plantar fasciitis during treadmill level and uphill walking and running. Sixteen male subjects are recruited and the arch length and height strain according to three types of foot orthotics with respect to control condition were measured by using two digital video cameras. The first hypothesis which the comfort of foot orthotics would be increased from arch pad, half length orthotics to full length orthotics was mostly accepted. It suggested that the types of the foot orthotics could be properly prescribed according foot regions that is pain or abnormal. The second hypothesis which the foot arch strain can be reduced by foot orthotics during level heel-toe walking and running and the third hypothesis which the foot arch strain can be reduced by foot orthotics during uphill heel-toe walking and running were rejected. The foot arch length and height strain during walking and running showed small and subject-specific characteristics and could not be optimal biomechanical variable to prove the overall comfort. The forth hypothesis which the foot arch strain cannot be reduced by foot orthotics during uphill toe walking and running was accepted. With the foot arch length and height strain during uphill toe walking and running the windlass mechanism suggested by Hicks can be explained successfully and excessive uphill toe walking and running can be one of cause of plantar fasciitis. The dynamic investigation on the foot arch such as walking and running should be carefully observed with integrated insights considering ligaments and foot bones as well as plantar fascia, extrinsic muscles and tendons, and intrinsic muscles and tendons.

The variable-frequency type water supply equipment, which adopts the variable-voltage and variable-frequency converter(VVVF converter) to govern automatically the rotating speed of a pump, can save 15-20% of power, as compared with a throttle-controlled pump device or an airpressurized water supply equipment, and is finding a wide application. However, it still has some disadvantages : greater pressure fluctuations during switching over the pump and prolonged low-effeciency running of the pump in the case of small consumption of water. Therefore, it is difficult to apply the equipment to the fire water supply system where the water should not be put into use unless a fire takes place, and the water pressure in pipelines should permanently remain constant. This paper introduces the automatic regulation principle of the variable-frequency type air-pressurized water supply equipment (hereafter referred to as simply BFQS equipment) for dual purposes of daily life and fire control, which combined both technologies of speed governing by a converter and air-pressurized water supplying, then discusses some problems related to automatic control, and finally gives the experimental results of an embodiment-BPQS-100-50 water supply equipment.
