Criteria for rehabilitation priority are discussed to evaluate structural stability of deteriorated water transport and transmission pipes, in this study. For the purposes, safety factor is introduced and estimated by measuring tensile strength and by analyzing stress caused by the internal-external loads working on buried pipe body. Related informations are surveyed and collected under various conditions in the fields by digging out and the structural stability is assessed. In the evaluation results of structural safety, it is shown that steel pipe is more affected by external load than internal load. The average external load is estimated as $53.7kg/cm^2$ and total hoop stress is estimated by $2676.5kg/cm^2$. Also, Poisson effect into longitudinal direction due to internal and external loads is most influential on hoop stress. The calculated safety factors of hoop stress are ranged from 0.7 to 5.2 with average value of 2.1, considering a bending stress to longitudinal direction. The decision of rehabilitation priority by safety factors show that structural safety of CIP sample 1(S1) was assessed at the lowest order with safety factor value, 0.7 and that of DI sample 15(S15) was evaluated as the most stable in structural aspect.

In domestic case, there are no results of corresponding researches for measuring external tendon force. The purpose of the present paper is therefore to measure external tendon force by using deriving ultrasonic method. For this purpose, we designed and manufactured wedges and test system, and measured ultrasonic pulse velocity and pulse amplitude. By using measured data, we tried to analyze the characteristics of tendon force, and to derive the relationship between tendon force and ultrasonic pulse velocity, finally to develop the technic of measuring system using ultrasonic pulse velocity. So tendon force-velocity relationship was proposed by equations, and those equations of which errors were 3.92~8.77% will be possible to adapt in-site.

A technique strengthened to the reinforced concrete members using the external post- tensioned method offers the advantages in speed and simplicity of installation over other, established, strengthening techniques. But this technique has many unreasonable facts. This paper are analyzed an unreasonable facts of the previous external post-tension technique. The purpose of this paper proposed Bow system as the new technique strengthened to the reinforced concrete members. The Bow system which is better technique than the previous technique was introduced with the experimental/analytical data.

External pre-stressing is often used in strengthening or retrofitting of steel-concrete composite beams. In this way, a proper numerical model should be able to trace the completely nonlinear response of these structures at service and ultimate loads. A three dimensional finite element model based on shell elements for representing the concrete slab and the steel beam are used in this work. Partial interaction at the slab-beam interface can be taken into account by using special beam-column elements as shear connectors. External pre-stressed tendons are modeled by using one-dimensional catenary elements. Contact elements are included in the analysis to represent the slipping at the tendon-deviator locations. Validation of the numerical model is established by simulating seven pre-stressed steel-concrete composite beams with experimental results. The model predictions agree well with the experimental results in terms of collapse loads, path failures and cracking lengths at negative moment regions due to service loads. Finally, the accuracy of some simplified formulas found in the specialized literature to predict cracking lengths at interior supports at service loading and for the evaluation of ultimate bending moments is also examined in this work.

The goal of this article is to ascertain the factors that govern consumers' choosing to outbound travel product. The authors assess the consumers' travel product choosing processes with information search(internal knowledge, external information knowledge). alternative evaluation(perceived image, emotional experience, price acceptability, appeal, trust), and alternative choice(purchasing intention). Using data on Thailand travel product, the authors find considerable results and conclude by discussing prescriptive recommendations for the travel industry.

This study gives the quality factor evaluation of rubber gloves manufacturing, including a systematic classification of poor durability(internal quality factors) and look bad(external quality factors) as well as the types of defective items, along with the relationship between quality factors and the defective types. The relationship analysis between quality factors and the defective types are performed with AHP(Analytic Hierarchy Process) technique. The results of our study will be useful for quality management activities and manufacturing process in rubber gloves manufacturing companies.

A fuzzy mathematical model is presented that can be applied to support the inspection of organizations by an internal or external evaluation group. The model offers the opportunity to deal with the situation of common practice in which such evaluations are considered as a time series rather than single events. A hypothetical but realistic example is given to illustrate the computational procedure involved.

Lots of investment projects of new development and redevelopment for information systems have been not taken care of in the field of administration and evaluation, for these information systems projects have unique characteristics such as technology sensitiveness, network effectiveness, embeddedness, and externality. In fact, quantitative and qualitative evaluation of investments in information systems projects are not sufficient. It is critically important to generally evaluate benefits of development or operation cost, urgency, external effects, and so on. In addition, the efficient monitoring and effective analysis of information systems are surely needed for beneficient results of investment in information systems. We propose an economics evaluation model for information systems projects.

When we see a binary black and white image, it appears. to our visual sense, to become clearer because of a pseudo halftone. This is because when we don't notice of all the details of the image, instead we see from a more global standpoint. We presented a theory and experimental results for layered model which extended external world, retina and brain of the two dimensional visual model. This paper propose the objective evaluation to coincide with the subjective evaluation of the human in ordered to evaluate the relative merits of the various modulation method. We obtain experimentally the restored images and the measure of approximation of the density four division and ordered dither method. The measure of approximation present s the objective evaluation scale to coincide with the subjective evaluation of the two modulation images.

This study suggests the organization-level standard(model and process) for quality evaluation of information systems(IS) in non-use organizations despite international standards(ISO/IEC 9126 and ISO/IEC 14598) and national standards(KS X 9126 and KS X 14598) related to quality evaluation of IS. The standard in this study is composed of quality evaluation processes, a quality model, and quality metrics. The weights of the attributes and the sub-attributes in the quality model were calculated by an analytic hierarchy process(AHP). The minimum level and the target level of each metrics were determined by brainstorming of the committee. Furthermore, the case study for the investigation of the applicability and the usability of the suggested organizational standard in the real IS development project was performed. For gaining significant benefits of the standard, both the diffusion and the experience accumulation by its continuous use are needed.
