In this study, We developed an evaluation system for the interim check of Integrated Rural Village Development Project and analyzed its applicability to an actual evaluation process through a pilot evaluation on regions selected. The evaluation system consists of documentary assessments(30%) and field inspections(70%). The documentary assessments are quantitative assessments on check-lists reports by self-evaluation prepared by local governments. The field inspections are qualitative assessments by evaluation teams. Sixteen evaluation indices were developed for documentary assessments and seven criteria were designed for field inspections. For a pilot evaluation, one region in each province excluding Jeju Do, eight regions was selected and the field inspections due to circumstances was proceeded in two regions. The results of documentary assessments indicate that most of regions are evaluated low in project performance attributable to the delay in security for sites. In the field inspections, it appears that most of the regions evaluated high at the documentary assessments got a high point from them. They also show that coordination of action plans, rather than quantitative achievements, is a base determining success of the projects.

Current maintenance operations and integrity checks on a wide array of structures require personnel entry into normally-inaccessible or hazardous areas to perform necessary nondestructive inspections. To gain access for these inspections, structure must be disassembled and removed or personnel must be transported to remote locations. The use of in-situ sensors, coupled with remote interrogation, can be employed to overcome a myriad of inspection impediments stemming from accessibility limitations, complex geometries, the location and depth of hidden damage, and the isolated location of the structure. Furthermore, prevention of unexpected flaw growth and structural failure could be improved if on-board health monitoring systems were used to more regularly assess structural integrity. A research program has been completed to develop and validate Comparative Vacuum Monitoring (CVM) Sensors for surface crack detection. Statistical methods using one-sided tolerance intervals were employed to derive Probability of Detection (POD) levels for a wide array of application scenarios. Multi-year field tests were also conducted to study the deployment and long-term operation of CVM sensors on aircraft. This paper presents the quantitative crack detection capabilities of the CVM sensor, its performance in actual flight environments, and the prospects for structural health monitoring applications on aircraft and other civil structures.

1995년 이후 연평균 6.2%의 증가율을 보이는 자동차 등록대수에 반해 연평균 교통사고 발생건수는 1.5%, 사망자 4.7% 및 부상자 0.3%씩 감소추세를 보이고 있어 매우 다행스러운 일이나, OECD국가와 비교해서는 여전히 높은 교통사고율을 보이는 것이 사실이다. 이에 정부 및 각 기관에서는 교통사고를 감소시키기 위해 지속적인 교통안전사업을 추진하고 있으나, 각 제도 및 사업에 대한 시행 효과를 측정하는 부분에 대해서는 소홀히 하고 있는 현실이다. 정부가 교통안전을 위한 사업의 일환으로 시행중인 자동차검사제도는 차량의 도로운행 적합성 확인을 통해 자동차의 안전도 확보 및 교통사고로 인한 국민의 생명과 재산을 보호하는 것을 목적으로 하고 있다. 하지만. 이 제도에 대한 효과분석이 제대로 이루어지지 않은 상황이고, 자동차검사제도와 무관하게 운전자 스스로 자동차의 안전관리 상태를 수시 점검한다는 의견 등 자동차 검사방법, 검사기준, 검사의 실효성 저하에 대한 논의가 지속적으로 제기되고 있는 실정이다. 이에 본 연구에서는 자동차검사제도가 구조장치의 안전성을 향상시키고. 자동차성능을 유지시킴으로써 자동차결함으로 인해 발생 가능한 교통사고의 사전예방에 어느 정도 기여하는지 정량적으로 보임으로써 자동차검사제도의 효과를 측정 해 보고자 하였다. 2005년도 자료를 기준으로 교통사고 감소건수를 추정해 본 결과 자동차검사제도 시행을 통한 교통사고 감소건수는 약 23,735건으로, 이는 2005년 총 교통사고 건수 214,171의 11%에 달하는 것으로 나타났다.

Background: Sex influences is important to understand behavioral manifestations in a large number of neuropsychiatric disorders. We found electrophysiological differences specifically related to the influence of sex on psychopathic traits. Methods: The resting electroencephalography (EEG) activity and low-resolution brain electromagnetic tomography (LORETA) for the EEG spectral bands were evaluated in 38 teenagers with conduct disorder (CD). The 25 male and 13 female subjects had psychopathic traits as diagnosed using the Antisocial Process Screening Device. All of the included adolescents were assessed using the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders, Fourth Edition, Text Revision (DSM-IV-TR) criteria. The visually inspected EEG characteristics and the use of frequency-domain quantitative analysis techniques are described. Results: Quantitative EEG (QEEG) analysis showed that the slow-wave activities in the right frontal and left central regions were higher and the alpha-band powers in the left central and bitemporal regions were lower in the male than the female psychopathic traits group. The current source density showed increases in paralimbic areas at 2.73 Hz and decreases in the frontoparietal area at 9.37 Hz in male psychopathics relative to female psychopathics. Conclusions: These findings indicate that QEEG analysis and techniques of source localization can reveal sex differences in brain electrical activity between teenagers with CD and psychopathic traits that are not obvious in visual inspections.

A more technical perspective is needed in estimating the effect of the Manufacturing Process for improving the Productivity, there are many statistical evaluation methods, convenience sampling, frequencies, histogram, QC seven tools, control chart etc. It is more important for the companies to use six sigma to reduce defective and improve the process control than the technical definition as a disciplined quantitative approach for improvement of process control and a new way of quality innovation. Process network analysis is a technique which has the potentiality for a wide use to improve the manufacturing process which other techniques can't be used to analyze effectively. It has some problems to analyze the process with feedback loops. The branch probabilities during quality inspections depend upon the number of times the product has been rejected. This paper presents how to improve the manufacturing process by statistical process control using branch probabilities, Moment Generating Function(MGF) and Sensitivity Equation.

Recently, quantitative and repetitive inspections of the old urban area were conducted because many structures exceed their designed lifetime. The health of a building can be validated from the condition of the outer wall, while the slant angle of the wall widely serves as an indicator of urban regeneration projects. Mostly, the inspector directly measures the inclination of the wall or partially uses 3D point measurements using a static light detection and ranging (LiDAR). These approaches are costly, time-consuming, and only limited space can be measured. Therefore, we propose a mobile mapping system and automatic slant map generation algorithm, configured to capture urban environments online. Additionally, we use the LiDAR-inertial mapping algorithm to construct raw point clouds with gravity information. The proposed method extracts walls from raw point clouds and measures the slant angle of walls accurately. The generated slant angle map is evaluated in indoor and outdoor environments, and the accuracy is compared with real tiltmeter measurements.

Loop-mediated isothermal amplification (LAMP) developed by Notomi et al. (2000) has made it possible to amplify DNA with high specificity, efficiency and rapidity under isothermal conditions. The ultimate products of LAMP are stem-loop structures with several inverted repeats of the target sequence and cauliflower-like patterns with multiple loops shaped by annealing between every other inverted repeats of the amplified target in the similar strand. Because the amplification process in LAMP is achieved by using four to six distinct primers, it is expected to amplify the target region with high selectivity. However, evaluation of reaction accuracy or quantitative inspection make it necessary to append other procedures to scrutinize the amplified products. Hitherto, various techniques such as turbidity assessment in the reaction vessel, post-reaction agarose gel electrophoresis, use of intercalating fluorescent dyes, real-time turbidimetry, addition of cationic polymers to the reaction mixture, polyacrylamide gel-based microchambers, lateral flow dipsticks, fluorescence resonance energy transfer (FRET), enzyme-linked immunosorbent assays and nanoparticle-based colorimetric tests have been utilized for this purpose. In this paper, we reviewed the best-known techniques for evaluation of LAMP amplicons and their applications in molecular biology beside their advantages and deficiencies. Regarding the properties of each technique, the development of innovative prompt, cost-effective and precise molecular detection methods for application in the broad field of cancer research may be feasible.
