In this study, we search some parameters well-related to floating-sinking pulse by statistical analysis, because these pulses are frequently used in clinic. Pulse signals were acquired by 3D pulse analyzer and 30 subjects consist of 15 people diagnosed as floating pulse and 15 people diagnosed as sinking pulse by oriental doctors who have over 5 years clinical experience. Then, we made a representative beat template for each subject and, through a peak detection algorithm, we calculated several pulse parameters. To find the parameters related to floating-sinking pulse, we performed statistical testing with 17 parameters through the independence sampling, t-test. As a result, there is the biggest difference between pressure, the maximum pulse pressure, diastolic area(Ad) and float-sink data. (p < .05).

The finite element method was adopted to find out the natural frequencies of a sinusoidally tapered beam with simply supported boundary conditions. The parameters considered in the numerical analysis are the taper parameter, $\alpha$ ($\alpha$=0.0, 0.1, ~ , 2.0) and the sectional property parameters, m and n [(m, n):(0, 2), (1, 3), (2, 4)]. It is generally known that the results of the numerical analysis corresponding to each pair of sectional property parameters, (m, n) are represented by second order polynominals of $\alpha$ . The coefficients of a in the polynominals are determined by using the regression technique, which reveals small m in most cases of given sectional property parameters (m, n).

This study aims to analyze operating performance of a micro gas turbine with the aid of detailed measurements of various system parameters. In addition to embedded measurements, parameters such as exhaust temperatures, engine inlet temperatures and fuel flow rates are measured. Variations in measured data and estimated performance parameters are analyzed. Those data are processed to calculate losses along the power transmission line and the net gas turbine performance (power and efficiency based on the gas turbine shaft end) is isolated from the overall system performance. A method to estimate characteristic parameters such as component efficiencies, based on the comparison between measured and predicted performance data, is suggested and exemplified for the full load condition.

Thermodynamic performance analysis has been carried out for a hybrid electric power generation system combining a gas turbine and a solid oxide fuel cell and operating at over-atmospheric pressure. Performance characteristics with respect to main design parameters such as maximum temperature and pressure ratio are examined in detail. Effects of other important design parameters are investigated including fuel cell internal parameters such as fuel utilization factor, steam/carbon ratio and current density, and system parameters such as recuperator efficiency and compressor inlet temperature.

This paper presents a study of surface roughness prediction model by orthogonal design in turning operation. Regression analysis technique has been used to study the effects of the cutting parameters such as cutting speed, feed depth of cut, and nose radius on surface roughness. An effect of interaction between two parameters on surface roughness has also been investigated. The experiment has been conducted using coated tungsten carbide inserts without cutting fluid. The reliability of the surface roughness model as a function of the cutting parameters has been estimated. The results show that the experimental design used in turning process is a method to estimate the effects of cutting parameters on sur-face roughness.

Systematic sensitivity analysis of smoothed particle hydrodynamics method (SPH), a gridless Lagrangian particle method, was carried out in this study. Unlike traditional grid-based numerical schemes, systematic sensitivity study for computational parameters is very limited for SPH. In this study, the effect of computational parameters in SPH simulation is explored through two-dimensional dam-breaking and sloshing problem. The parameters to be considered are the speed of sound, the type of kernel function, the frequency of density re-initialization, particle number, smoothing length and pressure extraction method. Through a series of numerical test, detailed information was obtained about how SPH solution can be more stabilized and improved by adjusting computational parameters.

Lapping is a very complicated and random process resulting from the variation of abrasive grains in its sizes and shapes and from the numerous factors having an effect on the process quality. This paper presents a study of a $2^4$ full factorial experimental design and analysis to optimize surface quality in lapping operation. The optimization of the factors to obtain minimum surface roughness was carried out by incorporating effect plots, main effect plots, interaction plots, analysis of variance(ANOVA), surface plots, and contour plots. The statistical design experiments, designed to reduce the total number of experiments required, indicated that, within the selected conditions, all the parameters influenced at a significance level of 5%. In addition, some of the possible interactions between these parameters also influenced the lapping process, especially those that were of third order. A regression model was suggested and fitted the experimental data very well.

The unbalance response analysis is one of the essential area in the forced vibration analysis of rotor bearing systems because of it usefulness in balancing and diagnosis as well as identification of parameters involved in rotor bearing systems. However some unbalance responses are not measurable due to the fact that rotor bearing systems are often encapsulated by fixtures or safety protectors. In the present paper, an efficent estimation scheme for unmeasured unbalance responses in rotor bearing systems is developed. The fundamental fearture of the proposed method is characterized by the linear formulae to estimate the unbalance responses from the measured unbalance responses and the finite element auxilliary model equation which is constructed to be identical to the prototype excluding the uncertain parameters such as bearing coefficients. The identification formulae for bearing parameters are also derived by using the unbalance response and the finite elements auxiliary model. Simulation is provided to verify the effectiveness of the proposed method.

A condition monitoring methodology for rotating machinery is proposed based on multivariate statistical analysis. The CMS usually are using the vibration signal amplitude such as acceleration RMS, peak and velocity RMS to detect machine faults but the information is not so enough that CMS cannot perform reliable monitoring. So new parameters are added such as shape factor, crest factor, kurtosis and skewness as time domain parameters and spectrum amplitude of rotating frequency, $2^{nd}$ harmonics and gear mesh frequency etc. as frequency domain parameters. Many parameters are combined to represent the machine state using the Hotelling's $T^2$ statistics. The proposed methodology is tested in laboratory and the on-line experiment has shown that the proposed methodology offers a reliable monitoring for rotating machinery.

A number of structural and modal parameters are derived from the strong motion records of an instrumented G + 9 storeyed RC building during Bhuj earthquake, 26 Jan. 2001 in India. Some of the extracted parameters are peak floor accelerations, storey drift and modal characteristics. Modal parameters of the building are also compared with the values obtained from ambient vibration survey of the instrumented building after the occurrence of earthquake. These parameters are further used for calibrating the accuracy of fixed-base Finite Element (FE) models considering structural and non-structural elements. Some conclusions are drawn based on theoretical and experimental results obtained from strong motion records and time history analysis of FE models. An important outcome of the study is that strong motion peak acceleration profile in two horizontal directions is close to FE model in which masonry infill walls are modeled.
