PURPOSES : The purpose of this paper is to evaluate the moisture susceptibility of asphalt mixtures containing developed liquid anti-stripping agents using the boiling water test as a screening test. METHODS : The boiling water test was used to evaluate the moisture susceptibility of asphalt mixtures containing different anti-stripping agents. The tensile strength ratio was calculated to compare the moisture susceptibility of the asphalt mixtures after indirect strength tests were performed. Additionally, image analysis techniques were used to calculate and analyze the quantity of stripped area in the asphalt mixtures. RESULTS : In general, the asphalt mixtures containing anti-stripping agents showed a higher resistance of anti-stripping based on the boiling water test and tensile strength ratio. CONCLUSIONS : The boiling water test can be used to differentiate the resistance of moisture susceptibility of asphalt mixtures, except for asphalt mixtures containing hydrated lime. The boiling water test can be used as a screening test for asphalt mixtures before conducting time consuming and expensive indirect tensile strength tests.

As the size of circuits becomes larger, the test method needs more test data volume and larger test application time. In order to reduce test data volume and test application time, a new test data compression/decompression method is proposed. The proposed method is based on an XOR network uses don't-care-bits to improve compression ratio during seed vectors generation. After seed vectors are produced seed vectors can be merged using two prefix codes. It only requires 1 clock time for reusing merged seed vectors, so test application time can be reduced tremendously. Experimental results on large ISCAS '89 benchmark circuits prove the efficiency of the proposed method.

In this study, the movable bed model testing was carried out so as to analyze bed profile changes including predicting scouring and deposition of bed profile and to solve hydraulic problems affecting with bed and both-bank between upstream and downstream of intake weir in the Nakdong river channel. The movable bed model testing consists of fundamental test, movable model test and numerical analysis method respectively. The fundamental test was enforced to analyze relationship of discharge and sediment load in the tilting flume. When the movable model test was worked, it was shown that sediment budget between input sediment load and output sediment load was balanced exactly. As a result of movable model test, it was presented that scouring and deposition changes in quantities between the upstream and downstream of modification weir were less than those of nature and planning weir. Finally, numerical analysis method was operated by 1-dimensional bed profile changes model ; HEC-6 model so as to complement unsolving hard problems during movable model test. So, modification weir will sustained the stable bed profile changes than any other weirs in the study channel.

DA-5018, a non-narcotic analgesic agent, was examined for mutagenicity in the reverse mutation test on bacteria, chromosomal aberration test on cultured mammalian cells and micronucleus test on mice. The reverse mutation test was performed by a plate incorporation method with or without a metabolic activation system(S9 mix) using Salmonella typhimurium strain TA100, TA1535, TA98 and TA1537. DA-5018 did not significantly increase revertant colonies in any of the test strains under any conditions at concentrations ranging from 0.0049 to 1.25 mg/plate, compared with the vehicle control. In the chromosomal aberration test using cultured Chinese Hamster Lung(CHL) cells, DA-5018 did not increase the number of aberrant cells in the presence or absence of S9 mix at concentrations of 0.016 mM/plate to 0.25 mM/plate, compared with the vehicle control. In the micronucleus test, male ICR mice were given DA-5018 intraperitoneally at a dose level of 0.55, 1.10 and 2.20 mg/kg. The incidence of bone marrow micronucleated polychromatic erythrocytes in the DA-5018 treated mice was not significantly different from that of the vehicle control. These results indicate that DA-5018 does not have mutagenic potential under the present test conditions.

Statistics are often used to test two samples if they have been drawn from the same underlying distribution. In this paper, we introduce several well-known distribution-free tests to compare distributions and conduct an extensive Monte-Carlo simulation to specify their behaviors. We consider various circumstances of when two distributions vary in (1) location, (2) scale, (3) symmetry, (4) kurtosis, (5) tail weight. A practical guideline for two-sample goodness-of-fit test is presented based on the simulation result.

A design of a preceding instruction decoding module(PIDM) is proposed aiming at performance enhancement of JTAG-based test complying to the IEEE 1149.1 standard. The PIDM minimizes the number of clocks by performing test access port(TAP) instruction decoding process prior to the execution of TAP-controlled test activities. The scheme allows the generation of signals such as test mode select(TMS) inside of a target system. The design employing PIDM demonstrates 15% performance enhancement with simulation of a CORDIC processor and 48% reduction of the TAP-controller's circuit size with respect to the conventional design of a non-PIDM version.

In order to stabilze alloxan as a reagent for detection of amino acids by spot test, sugars and other reductants were added to the aqueous alloxan solution. It was found that lactose was the best for the purpose. The alloxan reagent containing lactose did not give color change on blank test and was very stable that there was no color change even it was allowed to stand in room temperature for several months. The color reaction with amino acids and some amines was not affected by lactose. This spot test for amino acids is in sensitivity as comparable to that of the previously reported methods and gave color reaction with proline and hydroxyproline to 1${\gamma}$ and 5${\gamma}$ respectively.

The maintenance of legacy software systems is very important in the field of a software engineering. In the maintenance, a regression test confirms the behavior preserving of the software which has been changed but most of regression tests are done in a system level and rarely done in a unit test level because there is no test case. This paper proposes how to modify legacy software systems and make unit test cases as an asset. It uses a technique with a specific module of a real software development project and analyzes test coverage results. After this, if a study about automatic restructuring techniques and a test case generation proceeds continuously, we can expect the big advance of legacy software systems maintenance.

This paper studied on the fire characteristics of sandwich panels by ISO 9705 test (Full-scale room test). A comprehensive fire characteristics of sandwich panel was analyzed by applying the test result to the classification standard according to EN 13501-1 and Eurefic Research Program. Consequently, glass wool foam sandwich panel proved to be A class, incombustible - EPS Foam and incombustible - PUR Foam sandwich panels was class B. Also, EPS foam and PUR foam sandwich panels was class C because of flashover.

This paper introduces test configuration and operation method for the GPS receiver system under electromagnetic test of KSLV-I upper-stage as a system qualification level and describes performance analysis of the test results. The GPS receiver system has clearly passed the electromagnetic test specifications of component level which is based on MIL-STD-461E through several design changes. Under electromagnetic test as a system qualification level, the GPS receiver system normally operates in spite of electromagnetic interferences with other systems. Performance of the GPS receiver system is also, not degraded on the condition of electromagnetic field incidence and electrostatic discharge. The KSLV-I GPS receiver system, as a result, is verified on the electromagnetic condition of the KSLV-I upper-stage.
