This paper presents an advanced estimation method for obtaining the probability density functions of a damage parameter for valve leakage detection in a reciprocating pump. The estimation method is based on a comparison of model data which are simulated by using a mathematical model, and experimental data which are measured on the inside and outside of the reciprocating pump in operation. The mathematical model, which is simplified and extended on the basis of previous models, describes not only the normal state of the pump, but also its abnormal state caused by valve leakage. The pressure in the cylinder is expressed as a function of the crankshaft angle, and an additional volume flow rate due to the valve leakage is quantified by a damage parameter in the mathematical model. The change in the cylinder pressure profiles due to the suction valve leakage is noticeable in the compression and expansion modes of the pump. The damage parameter value over 300 cycles is calculated in two ways, considering advance or delay in the opening and closing angles of the discharge valves. The probability density functions of the damage parameter are compared for diagnosis and prognosis on the basis of the probabilistic features of valve leakage.

Discharge characteristics of inductively coupled plasma were investigated by using electrostatic probe and fluid simulation. The Inductively Coupled Plasma source driven by 13.56 Mhz was prepared. The signal attenuation ratios of the electrostatic probe at first and second harmonic frequency was tuned in 13.56Mhz and 27.12Mhz respectively. Electron temperature, electron density, plasma potential, electron energy distribution function and electron energy probability function were investigated by using the electrostatic probe. Experiment results were compared with the fluid simulation results. Ar plasma fluid simulations including Navier-Stokes equations were calculated under the same experiment conditions, and the dependencies of plasma parameters on process parameters were well agreed with simulation results. Because of the reason that the more collision happens in high pressure condition, plasma potential and electron temperature got lower as the pressure was higher and the input power was higher, but Electron density was higher under the same condition. Due to the same reason, the electron energy distribution was widening as the pressure was lower. And the electron density was higher, as close to the gas inlet place. It was found that gas flow field significantly affect to spatial distribution of electron density and temperature.

게임산업의 경쟁력을 강화하고 부가가치를 높이기 위하여 수요자가 요구하는 높은 만족도를 갖는 게임을 개발할 수 있도록 만족도를 정량적으로 평가하여 만족도 기준을 제시할 수 있는 연구 및 근거가 필요하다. 특히 만족도 요소들의 점수화와 모집단 분포의 추정은 중요한 과제로서 이를 통하여 어떤 게임이 다른 게임에 비하여 만족도가 높은지 낮은지를 알 수 있으며 만족도를 제고시키기 위하여 보완해야 할 요소들과 기술력을 예측할 수 있다. 본 연구에서는 게임 만족도 요소들의 접수분포를 정규화 하는 방법을 제 안하고 시뮬레이션을 통한 모수적 밀도함수 추정방법을 이용하여 모집단 분포를 추정하였다.

Entropy is the basic concept of information theory. It is well defined for random varibles with known probability density function(pdf). For given data with unknown pdf, entropy should be estimated. Usually, estimation of entropy is based on the approximations. In this paper, we consider a kernel based approximation and compare it to the cumulant approximation method for several distributions. Monte carlo simulation for various sample size is conducted.

A simulation-based approach to estimating the probability of an arbitrary region under a multivariate normal distribution is developed. In specific, the probability is expressed as the ratio of the unrestricted and the restricted multivariate normal density functions, where the restriction is given by the region whose probability is of interest. The density function of the restricted distribution is then estimated by using a sample generated from the Gibbs sampling algorithm.

The nonparametric deconvolution problems are studied to recover an unknown density when the data are contaminated with Gaussian error. We propose the estimator which is a linear combination of kernel type estimates of derivertives of the observed density function. We show that this estimator is consistent and also consider the properties of estimator at small sample by simulation.

The least squares cross validated bandwidth is the mini-mizer of the corss validation function for choosing the smooth parame-ter of a kernel density estimator. It is a completely automatic method but it requires inordinate amounts of computational time. We present a convenient formula for calculation of the cross validation function when the kernel function is a symmetric polynomial with finite sup-port. Also we suggest an algorithm for finding global minima of the crass validation function.

We consider estimation of the right-tail probability in a log-Laplace random variable, As we derive the density of ratio of two independent log-Laplace random variables, the k-th moment of the ratio is represented by a special mathematical function. and hence variance of the ratio can be represented by a psi-function.

The recent work by the authors (see, Withers, 1999; Withers and McGavin, 2006; Withers and Nadarajah, 2006) provided new expressions for repeated upper tail integrals of the univariate normal density and so also for the general Hermite function. Here we derive new expressions for repeated lower tail integrals of the same. The calculations involve the use of Moran's L-function and the Airy function. In particular, the Hermite functions are expressed in terms of Moran's L-function and vice versa.

In this paper we give asymptotic formulas for the number of ${\ell}$-cyclic extensions of the rational function field $k=\mathbb{F}_q(T)$ with prescribe ${\ell}$-class numbers inside some cyclotomic function fields, and density results for ${\ell}$-cyclic extensions of k with certain properties on the ideal class groups.
