Research on climate change and global warming on the power generation systems are rapidly increasing because of the Importance of the sustainable energy supply, thus the electricity supply since its growing share, in the end, uses energy supply. However, some researchers conducted this field, but many research gaps are not mentioned and filled in this field's literature since the lack of general statements and the quantitative models and formulation of the issue. In this research, an exergy-based model is implemented to model a set of six power generation technologies (combined cycle, gas turbine, nuclear plant, solar PV, and wind turbine) and use this model to simulate each technology's responses to climate change impacts. Finally, using these responses to define and calculate a formulation for the relationship between the system's energy performance in different environmental situations and a dimensionless index to quantize each power technology's reliability against the climate change impacts called the Pahlev reliability index (P-index) of the power technology. The results have shown that solar and nuclear technologies are the most, and wind turbines are the least reliable power generation technologies.

While Model-based Monitoring systems based on state observer theory have shown much promise in the laboratory, they have not been widely accepted by industry because, inpractice, these systems often have poor performance with respect to accuracy, band-width, reliability(false alarms), and robustness. In this paper, the linitations of the deterministic discrete-time state observer are investigated quantitatively from the machine monitoring viewpoint. The limitations in the transient and steady-state observer performance are quantified as estimation error bounds from which performance indices are selected. Each index represents the conditioning of the corresponding performance. By utilizing matrix norm theory, an unified main index is determined, that dominates all the indices. This index could from the basis for an observer design methodology that should improve the performance of model-based monitoring systems.

In this paper, we have developed an evaluation model of technology green index(TGI) which includes 3 evaluation factors and 13 indicators. Furthermore, as presenting the degree of relative importance among evaluation factors and indicators for all R&D evaluation stages and all green technology areas, and applying the proposed model to 5 defense projects, we have found applicability of the model to evaluation of defense R&D projects. The results of evaluation using this model can be used to monitor the performance of project life cycle and develop R&D investment strategy of green technology using portfolio analysis.

Preeminent performance of construction industry are unattainable with poor productivity resulting in time and cost over runs. Enhancement in productivity cannot be achieved without identifying and analyzing factors that adversely affect productivity. The objective therefore is to propose a productivity analysis model to quantify the probability of effect of factors influencing productivity by using fuzzy logic incorporated with relative importance index method, for various types of construction projects. To achieve this objective, a questionnaire survey was carried out targeting respondents of Indian construction industry, from four distinct projects, namely, residential, commercial, infrastructure and industrial projects. Based on questionnaire administered, the relative importance and ranks of factors demonstrated using relative importance index method. Probability assessment model to analyze productivity was then developed by using Fuzzy Logic Toolbox of MATLAB. The applicability of the proposed model was tested in seven construction projects and the probability of impact of factors on productivity evaluated. The results of application of model in the construction firms infers that the most contributing factor groups for most of the projects were discerned to be manpower, motivation and time group.

본 연구에서는 시민들이 하천에서 안전하고 쾌적하게 레크리에이션 활동을 할 수 있도록 종합 수질 정보를 제공하는 하천 레크리에이션 지수 산정 모델을 개발하였다. 하천 레크리에이션 지수 모델은 분변성 대장균 모델과 수질지수 모델을 통합하여 구성하였다. 분변성 대장균 모델에서는 로지스틱 회귀분석을 사용하여 분변성 대장균 등급을 예측하였고, 수질지수 모델에서는 DO, pH, 탁도, 클로로필 a를 퍼지 합성방법을 통해 종합화하여 수질 지수를 산정하였다. 최종 단계에서 분변성 대장균 등급과 수질 지수를 통합하여 하천 레크리에이션 지수를 산정할 수 있도록 모델을 개발하였다. 제안된 모델을 낙동강의 강정고령보 상류 지점에 적용한 결과, 하천 레크리에이션 지수는 개별 수질인자들의 변화를 잘 반영하는 것으로 나타났다. 특히 하천 레크리에이션 지수와 클로로필 a의 상관계수가 -0.85로 나타나 클로로필 a가 하천 레크리에이션 지수에 가장 많은 영향을 미치고 있음을 확인할 수 있었다. 본 모델에서 산정한 종합수질지수는 기존 수질 정보 제공 시스템인 실시간 수질지수보다 보수적인 결과를 보였는데, 이는 등급에 따라 현재의 수질 상태가 어떠한 상태에 속하는지를 계산하고 수질 기준의 불확실성을 적절하게 고려하기 때문인 것으로 판단되었다. 나아가서, 분변성 대장균 등급이 낮을 경우 하천 레크리에이션 지수가 분변성 대장균을 고려하지 않고 있는 실시간 수질지수보다 낮은 결과를 제시하는 것으로 나타났다.

The sound quality based on design optimization, throughout the development process of various electronic office equipments, needs to be considered in order to respond the increased needs for the emotional satisfaction of customers in terms of psycho-acoustics. This paper focuses on how to describe the characteristics of operating sound radiated from laser printers by using various sound attributes, and to model the sound quality index that can properly evaluate the subjective preference on modification conditions in the improvement study quantitatively. Especially, the proposed verification process, in the form of combining the correlation based method and the decision error based method, was applied to improve the generality and reliability of a group of participants in the jury evaluation. The modified Aures tonality model was also proposed to improve the correlation coefficient with the mean response of participants by optimizing some parameters. As a result, the loudness, articulation index, roughness, tonality, fluctuation strength were used to model the sound quality index for laser printers by using the multiple-linear regression method. Through the improvement study, it was confirmed that replacing the absorbing materials is effective to reduce the tonalness radiated from the side of a reference printer model. Based on above results, it can be concluded that the proposed model has enough usefulness as quantitative evaluation index to evaluate the difference between modification conditions in the improvement study.

The yield of semiconductor chips is dependent not only on the average defect density but also on the distribution of defects over a wafer. The distribution of defects leads to consider a cluster index. This paper briefly reviews the existing yield prediction models ad proposes a new cluster index, which utilizes the information about the defect location on a wafer in terms of the coefficient of variation. An extensive simulation is performed under a variety of defect distributions and a yield prediction model is derived through the regression analysis to relate the yield with the proposed cluster index and the average number of defects per chip. The performance of the proposed simulation-based yield prediction model is compared with that of the well-known negative binomial model.

Ion reflective index and sheet resistance in the silicon oblique range smaller than 8 degree and optimization of annealing temperature have been studied. A four point probe was used to obtain the sheet resistance after annealing, while high resolution SIMS was used to determine the Boron and Fluorine atomic profiles before and after annealing. Experimental results and theory of ion reflective index are compared. Ion reflective index was found to decrease according to increasing an ion oblique angle. We introduce a simple analytical model ion reflection, concidering the Rutherford scattering model. This result can not be explained by the conventional Gaussian model.

A single-index model is useful in fields which employ multidimensional regression models. Many methods have been developed in parametric and nonparametric approaches. In this paper, posterior inference is considered and a wavelet series is thought of as a function approximated to a true function in the single-index model. The posterior inference needs a prior distribution for each parameter estimated. A prior distribution of each coefficient of the wavelet series is proposed as a hierarchical distribution. A direction $\beta$ is assumed with a unit vector and affects estimate of the true function. Because of the constraint of the direction, a transformation, a spherical polar coordinate $\theta$, of the direction is required. Since the posterior distribution of the direction is unknown, we apply a Metropolis-Hastings algorithm to generate random samples of the direction. Through a Monte Carlo simulation we investigate estimates of the true function and the direction.
