We consider a preventive replacement policy for a cold-standby system with N components, in which only one component is in operation at a time. If the component in operation fails, a standby component is immediately switched into operation. If all components fail, the system fails. The system is inspected at random poins in time to determine whether it is to be replaced or not. If the number of failed components at the time of inspection exceeds a threshold value r, the system is replaced. Otherwise the decision is put off until the next inspection point arrives. Under the cost structure which includes a replacement cost, a system down-time cost and a holding cost of the components, we develop an efficient procedure to find the optimal control values N and r, which minimize the expected cost per unit time.

This study is devoted to estimate higher-mode effects for multi-story structures with considering soil-structure interaction subjected to decomposed parts of near-fault ground motions. The soil beneath the super-structure is simulated based on the Cone model concept. Two-dimensional structural models of 5, 15, and 25-story shear buildings are idealized by using nonlinear stick models. The ratio of base shears for the soil-MDOF structure system to those obtained from the equivalent soil-SDOF structure system is selected as an estimator to quantify the higher-mode effects. The results demonstrate that the trend of higher-mode effects is regular for pulse component and has a descending variation with respect to the pulse period, whereas an erratic pattern is obtained for high-frequency component. Moreover, the effect of pulse component on higher modes is more significant than high-frequency part for very short-period pulses and as the pulse period increases this phenomenon becomes vice-versa. SSI mechanism increases the higher-mode effects for both pulse and high-frequency components and slenderizing the super-structure amplifies such effects. Furthermore, for low story ductility ranges, increasing nonlinearity level leads to intensify the higher-mode effects; however, for high story ductility, such effects mitigates.

The factors which can help the library users trace the specific subject that she or he needs are most important, when they are not sure of what they need exactly in front of a classified catalogue. This study is about what the factors are and how the factors affect the inference of users' reasoning structure. Since the classified catalogues are reflected by the classification structure, naturally the logic in the classification system becomes the focus of the study. This study concludes the classification system which enables the library users to use their reasoning capabilities, viz. the classification system which can help the users trace the specific subject even as they are not sure of the exact subject they need has following factors in the system. 1. It should have the validity based on the facts in the components of the classification system. 2. It should be logically arranged when the components of the classification system are placed in due sequence. 3. The notation of the system should be based on mnemonics. The reason is that the indispensable factors in the formation of inference of human reasoning structure are: 1. the premises which are based on the facts and 2. the logical relationship between the premises and conclusions which are induced from the premises.

In this paper, we propose the classification scheme and retrieval mechanism which can apply to many application domains in order to construct the software reuse library. Classification scheme which is the core of the accessibility in the reusability, is defined by the hierarchical structure using the agglomerative clusters. Agglomerative cluster means the group of the reuse component by the functional relationships. Functional relationships are measured by the HACM which is the representation method about software components to calculate the similarities among the classes in the particular domain. And clustering informations are added to the library structure which determines the functionality and accuracy of the retrieval system. And the system stores the classification results such as the index information with the weights, the similarity matrix, the hierarchical structure. Therefore users can retrieve the software component using the query which is the natural language. The thesis is studied to focus on the findability of software components in the reuse library. As a result, the part of the construction process of the reuse library was automated, and we can construct the object-oriented reuse library with the extendibility and relationship about the reuse components. Also the our process is visualized through the browse hierarchy of the retrieval environment, and the retrieval system is integrated to the reuse system CARS 2.1.

In ceramic systems, many components including embedded passives and TRL(transmission line) are used for composition of 3-dimensional circuit. So the exact analysis on this components must be performed. As for the TRL's, material properties including electrical conductivity of metal, loss factor and effective dielectric constant of dielectric material and geometrical factors like roughness of surface, vias, dimension of stripline structure have a large effect on the charactersistics of transmission lines. In this research, effect of material and geometrical factors on the characteristics of stripline structure is analyzed and quantified by simulation and measurement.

Seismic demand on nonstructural components (NSCs) is highly dependent on the coupled behavior of a combined supporting structure-NSC system. Because of the inherent complexities of the problem, many of the affecting factors are inevitably neglected or simplified based on engineering judgments in current seismic design codes. However, a systematic analysis of the key affecting factors should establish reasonable seismic design provisions for NSCs. In this study, an idealized 2-DOF model simulating the coupled structure-NSC system was constructed to analyze the parameters that affect the response of NSCs comprehensively. The analyses were conducted to evaluate the effects of structure-NSC mass ratio, structure, and NSC nonlinearities on the peak component acceleration. Also, the appropriateness of component ductility factor (R_p) given by current codes was discussed based on the required ductility capacity of NSCs. It was observed that the responses of NSCs on the coupled system were significantly affected by the mass ratio, resulting in lower accelerations than the floor spectrum-based response, which neglected the interaction effects. Also, the component amplification factor (a_p) in current provisions tended to underestimate the dynamic amplification of NSCs with a mass ratio of less than 15%. The nonlinearity of NSCs decreased the component responses. In some cases, the code-specified R_p caused nonlinear deformation far beyond the ductility capacity of NSCs, and a practically unacceptable level of ductility was required for short-period NSCs to achieve the assigned amount of response reduction.

Literature review on reliability test method for developing high performance optical/thermofluidic components. Since the miniaturization by the conventional mechanical process is limited to milli-structure, i.e. $10^{-3}m$, new technology for fabricating of mechanical components is needed to match cost, reliability, and integrability criteria of micro-structure. Although numbers of various researches on MEMS/MOEMS devices and components, including material characterization, design and optimization, system validation, etc., the lack of standards and specifications make the researches and developments difficult. For that reason, this paper is intended to propose the methods of reliability test for measuring the mechanical property of optical/ thermofluidic components.

If a system such as a port has a large boundary and complexity, and the system's substance is considered as a black box, forecast accuracy will be very low. Futhermore various components in a port exert significant influence on each other. To copy with these problem the form of structure models were introduced by using SD method. The Competitive Ports Model had several sub-systems consisting of each Unit Port models, and each Unit Port model was made by quantitative, qualitative factors and their feedback loops. The fact that all components of one port have influence on the components of the other ports should be taken into account to construct Competitive Port Models. However, with the current approach that is impossible, and in this paper therefore, models were simplified by HFP adapted to integrate level variables of unit port models. Although many studies on modelling of port competitive situation have been conducted, both theoretical frame and methodology are still very weak. In this study, a new algorithm called ESD(Extensional System Dynamics) for the evaluation of port competition was presented, and applied to simulate port systems in northeast asia.
