Process adjustment is a complimentary tool to process monitoring in process control. Although original intention of process adjustment is not identifying a special cause, detection and elimination of special causes may lead to significant process improvement. In this paper, we examine the impact of special causes on process adjustment. The bias in the adjusted output process is derived for each type of special causes, and average run length (ARL) of the Shewhart chart applied to the adjusted output is computed for each special cause types. Numerical results are illustrated for the ARL of the Shewhart chart, thereupon seriousness of special causes on process adjustment is evaluated for each type of special causes.

최근 급격히 증가하고 있는 교통수요에 능동적으로 대처해 나가기 위해서는 도시 가로망이 도시교통환경에서 담당하는 교통기능을 체계적으로 분석하여 도로의 기능적 위계를 이루고, 제약된 예산 하에 최대의 효율을 누릴 수 있는 교통관리계획이나 시설계획을 수립해야 할 것이다. 그러나 기능적 위계의 설정 지표 중 중요도가 높은 차량의 운행경로는 조사상 불가능하거나 큰 어려움을 내포하고 있다. 이러한 문제점을 해결하기 위해 본 논문에서는 Simulation기법을 이용하여 차량의 운행경로 및 운행거리를 파악하였다. 이에 본 연구는 특정 경로에 유출입하는 교통량을 알 수 있는 경로OD교통량과 특정 경로내의 특정 노드(i, j)사이에 통과하는 경로교통량이라는 개념을 도입하였다. 이러한 통행량들을 분석하여 도시 가로망의 기능적 분류를 가능케 하는 정량적 지표를 정립하였으며, 더 나아가 효율적 투자계획 및 정책결정권자의 계획방향 판단에 일조할 수 있는 '집중관리구간' 선정영역을 제시하였다.

In this paper, we present arc-length estimations for quadratic rational B$\acute{e}$zier curves using the length of polygon and distance between both end points. Our arc-length estimations coincide with the arc-length of the quadratic rational B$\acute{e}$zier curve exactly when the weight ${\omega}$ is 0, 1 and ${\infty}$. We show that for all ${\omega}$ > 0 our estimations are strictly increasing with respect to ${\omega}$. Moreover, we find the parameter ${\mu}^*$ which makes our estimation coincide with the arc-length of the quadratic rational B$\acute{e}$zier curve when it is a circular arc too. We also show that ${\mu}^*$ has a special limit, which is used for optimal estimation. We present some numerical examples, and the numerical results illustrates that the estimation with the limit value of ${\mu}^*$ is an optimal estimation.

In this work, the effect of welding variables on weldability of gas tungsten arc(GTA) welding was investigated with experimental analysis for a commercial pure(CP) titanium (Grade.1). The GTA welding tests on sheet samples with 0.5mm in thick were carried out at different process variables such as arc length, welding speed and electrode shape. In order to search an optimum arc length with full penetration, bead- on-plate welding before butt-welding were performed with different arc length conditions. From the bead- on-plate welding results, the optimum condition considering arc stability and electrode loss was obtained in the arc length of 0.8mm. Butt-welding tests based on the arc length of 0.8mm were carried out to achieve the optimum conditions of welding speed and electrode shape. Optimum conditions of welding speed and electrode shape were suggested as 10 mm/s and truncated electrode shape, respectively. It was successfully validated by the microstructural observation, tensile tests, micro-hardness tests and formability tests.

Background and objective: Native to the limestone zones of the Korean Peninsula, Zabelia tyaihyonii is a popular plant for landscaping. As it is now classified as a rare species, the conservation of its genetic resources is necessary. Methods: In this study, which aimed to understand the morphological variation of Z. tyaihyonii, 18 characteristics of Z. tyaihyonii from five habitats were examined. Results: Of these 18 characteristics, 16 characteristics showed significant differences among sites, and the coefficient of variation ranged from 5.4% (for corolla lobe number) to 31.3% (for flower number). Notable variations were observed in the size of flower and calyx lobe. When the corolla length and calyx lobe length were used as the classification key of Z. tyaihyonii, the sites were divided into those with small, intermediate, and large values. Hair was observed on the filament of all samples, a finding which conflicts with an earlier report. Rather than classifying Z. tyaihyonii into different species on the basis of corolla length (COL) and calyx lobe length (CALL) values, we recommend modifying the species description to incorporate the variation in these characteristics of interest. Principal component analysis results showed that the first main component was highly correlated with the traits related to the size of the calyx lobe (length: 0.819, width: 0.758), and the second main component was highly correlated with the traits related with the size of the inflorescence (length: 0.790, width: 0.626). Conclusion: Several notable variations were identified among the characteristics related to inflorescence and calyx lobe. There is little genetic exchange among groups, or each group is influenced by micro environmental factors, because sites that are located nearby. In addition, the difference between COL and CALL, which is used as the classification key for Z. tyaihyonii, was divided into small group, large group, and intermediate group, regardless of the sites' geographical distance.

In order to devise a rebar usage optimization algorithm, it is necessary to calculate the exact rebar length and revise the arrangement of rebars into special lengths. However, the process of rearranging numerous rebars and manually calculating their quantities is time-consuming and requires significant human resources. To address this challenge, it is necessary to develop an algorithm that can automatically estimate the length of rebars and calculate their quantities. This study aims to create an automatic estimation algorithm that improves work efficiency while ensuring accurate and reliable calculations of rebar quantities. The algorithm considers various factors such as concrete cover, hook length, development length, and lapping length, mandated by the building codes, to calculate the quantity of rebars for wall structures. The effectiveness of the proposed method is validated by comparing the rebar quantities generated by the algorithm with manually calculated quantities, resulting in a difference rate of 1.14% for the hook case and 1.37% for the U-bar case. The implementation of this method enables fast and precise estimation of rebar quantities, adhering to relevant regulatory codes.

A new fabrication method of FBG sensor with gage length shorter than 10 mm is introduced using the reflection prism with special coating on the surface. It is verified that the bandwidth of FBG sensor increases exponentially as the gage length of it decreases. The transverse stress and strain gradient induced by local stress concentration which occurs during curing has an influence on the FBG sensor with gage length of 2 mm less than that of 10 mm.

In this study, a fiber chain was developed to replace a steel chain using high-modulus polyethylene DM20. The pick count, wrapping count, and inner length were selected as the main design variables of the fiber chain and were analyzed to increase the breaking strength. Orthogonal array experiments were conducted, and the results were analyzed with respect to the breaking strength. The analysis revealed that the pick count and wrapping count had meaningful effects at significance levels within 5%. The main effect analysis revealed that a smaller pick count, larger wrapping count, and longer inner length caused the breaking strength to increase. With the wrapping count fixed at 1, a pick count less than -0.65, and an inner length greater than 0.38, the breaking strength was calculated to be greater than 300 kN. These results are expected be important factors in the derivation of an optimal combination of design variables to attain a fiber chain with a targeted strength.

Statistical process control (SPC) and engineering process control (EPC) are based on different strategies for process quality improvement. SPC re-duces process variability by detecting and eliminating special causes of process variation, while EPC reduces process variability by adjusting compensatory variables to keep the quality variable close to target. Recently there has been need for an integrated process control (IPC) procedure which combines the two strategies. This paper considers a scheme that simultaneously applies SPC and EPC techniques to reduce the variation of a process. The process model under consideration is an IMA(1,1) model with a step shift. The EPC part of the scheme adjusts the process, while the SPC part of the scheme detects the occurrence of a special cause. For adjusting the process repeated adjustment is applied according to the predicted deviation from target. For detecting special causes the exponentially weighted moving average control chart is applied to the observed deviations. It was assumed that the adjustment under the presence of a special cause may increase the process variability or change the system gain. Reasonable choices of parameters for the IPC procedure are considered in the context of the mean squared deviation as well as the average run length.
