A previous study showed that the handle vibration of a walking type cultivator can be reduced by adding a mass to the handle. This study was conducted to determine the optimum magnitude and location of the mass to be added for the same cultivator. The possible locations of added mass were determined by investigating nodal points of the handle vibration by an ODS (operational deflection shapes) test at an engine frequency of 52 Hz. The optimum location was then determined as one that moved the nodal points to the hand grip of the handle bar. To determine the optimum magnitude of the mass, the possible locations were added by a mass from 0.2 to 2.0 kg in an increment of 0.2 kg. The optimum magnitude was then determined as a mass which minimized the vibration level at the hand grip. For the case of this study, the z-axis vibration at the hand grip was reduced from $2.67m/s^2\;to\;0.88m/s^2$ resulting in a reduction of 67% and the total vibration from $4.09m/s^2\;to\;3.27m/s^2$ resulting in a 20% reduction by adding an optimum mass to the optimum location.

This paper discusses the development of an up-to-date computerized CPT (Cone Penetration Test) based soil engineering classification system to provide geotechnical engineers with a handy tool for their daily design activities. Five CPT soil engineering classification systems are incorporated in this effort. They include the probabilistic region estimation and fuzzy classification methods, both developed by Zhang and Tumay, the Schmertmann, the Douglas and Olsen, and the Robertson et al. methods. In the probabilistic region estimation method, a conformal transformation is used to determine the soil classification index, U, from CPT cone tip resistance and friction ratio. A statistical correlation is established between U and the compositional soil type given by the Unified Soil Classification System (USCS). The soil classification index, U, provides a soil profile over depth with the probability of belonging to different soil types, which more realistically and continuously reflects the in-situ soil characterization, which includes the spatial variation of soil types. The CPT fuzzy classification on the other hand emphasizes the certainty of soil behavior. The advantage of combining these two classification methods is realized through implementing them into visual basic software with three other CPT soil classification methods for friendly use by geotechnical engineers. Three sites in Louisiana were selected for this study. For each site, CPT tests and the corresponding soil boring results were correlated. The soil classification results obtained using the probabilistic region estimation and fuzzy classification methods are cross-correlated with conventional soil classification from borings logs and three other established CPT soil classification methods.

Objective: The aim of this study was to provide a method to improve the compliance and reduce the time by reducing the workload during the model change work. Background: The enterprises are constructing the small quantity batch production system by increasing the number of model change and reducing model-changing. However, the compliance is low because the work is strenuous and high skills are needed, so the system management is facing with many difficulties. Method: After classifying the model change work according to the purposes(preparation, change and adjustment) with the target of mascara filling machine, element tasks time were measured and the motion analysis(therblig symbol) and REBA analysis were performed. The study incorporated 3 independent variables as the number of motion, REBA score and the element time. The dependent variable is the type of element work as preparation, change and adjustment. The statistical test was performed by one-way ANOVA(${\alpha}$ < 0.05). Results: For the preparation, the number of motions appeared in the order of Use(U), Transport Loaded(TL), and Position(P). The order appeared in change is Use(U), Release Load(RL), and Grasp (G). The adjustment appeared in the order of Position(P) and Use(U). The results of average motion time as the element work times divided by the number of motion appeared in the order of adjustment(1.85sec/motion), preparation(1.11sec/motion), and change(0.62sec/motion). The results of REBA showed that the average risk level of change and adjustment were medium, but 53.1% of change and 42.9% of adjustment were evaluated as high. Conclusion: Reducing the avoidance and improving the compliance of work could be expected if the job autonomy were improved by improving the working postures with high risk level. Application: It is expected to solve the problem of reducing the time of model change work in the small quantity batch production system. The future work is to carry out the improvement directions found in the results and compare the results after improvement.

Objectives : Washing face is the first step in skin beauty and health. I wanted to study the cleansing effect by using Placenta cp (cold process) soap. The skin condition is greatly influenced by the external environment such as lifestyle, drinking, smoking, and stress etc. I tried to measure the skin change state without environmental factors. Methods : In order to examine the effect before and after washing face under the same conditions, the same water and towel were used in the same place. The skin test was performed before and 10 minutes after washing. As a control group, a case of washing with water and foam cleanser. I compared and analyzed three cases: water washing, F/C (foam cleanser) washing, and Placenta cp soap washing. Results : In the case of water washing, it was significantly reduced in pores and increased in facial temperature. In the case of F/C washing, the facial temperature was significantly increased, but the decrease in moisture. In the case of washing with Placenta cp soap, significant reductions in T-zone and U-zone oil content, reduction in pore size, and increase in facial skin temperature were observed. Conclusion : In the case of Placenta cp soap, it is thought to be suitable for oily skin type, because of significant decrease in T-zone and U-zone oil content. It is thought to have the effect of increasing blood circulation in the facial skin and to reduce pores for oily skin types.

음향방출법은 차량 내부에 장착된 실린더의 경우 분해없이 동작중에 실시간으로 측정이 가능하므로 다른 비파괴평가 방법보다 많은 장점을 가지고 있다. 이러한 장점을 가지고 음향방출법은 미국 교통부(DOT)로부터 수압시험의 대체로 압력용기의 안정성 평가 방법으로 승인되었다. 본 논문은 압력용기 제조사로부터 UT 결함용기 및 결함이 있는 이음매 없는 압력용기인 Type 1과 Type 2에 대한 정량적인 평가기준에 대한 연구를 수행하였다. Type 1의 경우, ASTM E 1419-02를 기준으로 113L 규격의 준비된 용기로 피로반복시험을 통해 크랙의 성장부터 누설까지 경향을 파악하였다. Type 2의 경우, ASTM E 2191-02를 기준으로 119L 건전한 용기와 수압가압으로 불량용기를 용기에 slow-fill 방법으로 검증하였다. 본 연구에서 음향방출법을 이용한 Type 1과 Type 2의 시험은 불량용기와 건전한 용기를 효과적으로 구분할 수 있었다.

The magnetohydrodynamic(MHD) pressure drop along a liquid sodium flow was measured in a rectangular duct under a transverse magnetic field. The test section was made of a 3 mm thick stainless steel SUS304 with a $74{\times}5mm^2$ rectangular flow channel. The range of experimental parameters was roughly B=0${\sim}$0.18T and U=0${\sim}$0.9m/s at around $200^{\circ}C$. The differential pressure was measured by a diaphragm seal-type pressure transmitter filled with a high temperature silicon oil within 0.1MPa. The experimental results show a similar pressure drop with the theoretical estimation according to a change of the flow velocity and the magnetic field.

Recently, the antiwahout underwater concrete with an natiwashout admixture has been increasingly used for underwater structures. However, the credibility of antiwahout underwater concrete was brought up as problems because it was seldom applied to fields. In this study, experiments were made on the basic properties of antiwashout underwater concrete replaced with GGBF Slag from 40% to 60% to improve its properties. Resultant to the test, we got the results as follows; the difference of U-type heght was decreased, and the slump flow was increased. Whereas the amount of suspended solids became high as to increasing the replacement ratio of GGBF Slag, pH value became low. Beacause the ratio of compressive strengths (in water compared to in air) at 28days was obtained over 90%, its value is satisfied with 70% of a criterion.
