  • Nowadays stronger rules are applied to rolling stocks because of improvement of standards and thoughts to safety. So the designing lightweight rolling stock underframe structure is required to these rules. This review is about underframe structure which satisfies the condition of AAR Longitudinal static compressive force 360 ton comparing with difference of the former underframe structure.

  • The purpose of this paper is to see whether the improvement on the financial structure through the asset revaluation is temporary or not. The financial structure of the companies which revalue the asset was improved for the revaluating year, but the financial structure worsened in the next year. Therefore, I can infer that the asset revaluation is carried out to supply their capital by enterprises.

  • In order to improve stability of rail and ride comfort, railway bridges should be maintained a integrity. However, it is necessary to plan various reinforcements and improvements because of a long term used and external effects. In this paper, the improvement plan which is reflected by investigation for reinforcement and improvement is introduced. The constituents of the structures are defined in order to optimize the improvement plane, and the analysis for relationships between the constituents are performed by several evaluation. Finally, the improvement plan is applied to a structure using impact factors for the external effects in order to obtain the improvements reasonably.

  • When customer makes a phone call to get the necessary information, ARS (Automatic Response System) will provide them without the limitation of time and place. Therefore, the application field of ARS (Automatic Response System) has been expanded and also occupancy rates arepretty high. However, compared with the importance of ARS, there is little study regarding the closest information structure of the actual users. Therefore, this research is about the ARS information structure of Gimhea BIS (Bus Information System), and the point of this research is to analyze the problem of the ARS information structure so we can suggest an idea to improve it. As the methods of study, drawing the workflow of ARS, conducting user observation, comparing with cases another region and analysis them. As a result, by and large there was error in the structure of information so, system reformation was required. Now that, we suggested two ideas for the improvement and we conducted usability test under that problem. Usability test was conducted by Lab test with interview. As a result, we could understand merits and demerits of two ideas for improvement, and we completed final improvement to highlight only merits of two ideas for improvement. This study will be utilized as the base material to improve ARS of Gimhea BIS.

  • The cross flow turbine is economical because of its simple structure. For remote rural region, there are needs for a more simple structure and very low head cross flow turbines. However, in this kind of locations, the water from upstream always flows into the turbine with some other materials such as sand and pebble. These materials will be damage to the runner blade and shorten the turbine lifespan. Therefore, there is a need to develop a new type of cross flow turbine for the remote rural region where there is availability of abundant resources. The new design of the cross flow turbine has an inlet open duct, without guide vane and nozzle to simplify the structure. However, the turbine with inlet open duct and very low head shows relatively low efficiency. Therefore, the purpose of this study is to optimize the shape of the turbine inlet to improve the efficiency, and investigate the internal flow of a very low head cross flow turbine. There are two steps to optimize the turbine inlet shape. Firstly, by changing the turbine open angle along with changing the turbine inlet open duct bottom line (IODBL) location to investigate the internal flow. Secondly, keeping the turbine IODBL location at the maximum efficiency achieved at the first step, and changing the turbine IODBL angle to improve the performance. The result shows that there is a 7.4% of efficiency improvement by optimizing turbine IODBL location (open angle), and there is 0.3% of efficiency improvement by optimizing the turbine IODBL angle.

  • Recently the objective of vehicle design was focused on the crash safety and the energy saving. For the energy saving vehicle structures must be light weight, but for the crash safety some energy absorbing elements must be added. In this paper hybrid structure which consists of a steel and a FRP was studied on the energy absorption characteristics under the impact load by finite element method. Test results of the other researchers were compared with that of computer simulation on this simple hybrid structure. Side rail of vehicle front structure was replaced with hybrid materials for the application of the vehicle structure. 35mph frontal crash simulation was performed with hybrid structure and with conventional steel structure. By the adoption of hybrid structure, the improvement of energy absorption characteristics and reduction of weight was observed under the frontal crash simulation.

  • To improve the luminous efficacy of PDPs, an AC PDP with new metal electrode structure is suggested. Operating voltage margin, power consumption, luminance, luminous efficacy, addressing jitter and ICCD image of test panel with proposed structure are measured, to compared with performances of the conventional ITO structure and proposed structures. To enhance luminous efficacy, we designed new structure which have asymmetric metal electrode structure. The experimental results show that the suggested structure shows luminance to maximum 89% and luminous efficacy to maximum 107% compared with conventional ITO standard structure. In addition, proposed structures with asymmetric electrode show low power consumption by $2{\sim}3%$, high luminance by $5{\sim}7%$, and high luminous efficacy by $2{\sim}3%$ compared with proposed symmetric electrode structures.
