Recently, needs for extending remaining life and integrity of the aged energy plants are increased since the most domestic plants have been operated over 10 years. This need makes RAM (reliability, availability and maintainability) of the plant become more significant. RBI (risk based inspection) is main technology to increase RAM in energy plants. So far RBI has been developed mainly in the field of process plants (chemical/refinery), underground buried pipelines or nuclear power plants. However, the existing RBI procedure is limited mainly to process plants, it need to be extended to the other energy plants such as fossil power plants. In this study, a general RBI procedure for optimized PM (preventive maintenance) is proposed for various energy plants.

When designing a multifunctional system consisting of many components performing many functions or missions, it is important to determine the reliability, availability, and maintainability (RAM) of the system and components, and we consider system availability to be the optimization criterion. For given intervals of mean time between failure (MTBF) and mean time to repair (MTTR) of the components, we want to determine the values of MTBF and MTTR for all components that satisfy the target availability. A heuristic method is proposed for finding near-optimal solutions through simulation. We also study numerical examples to check effects of model parameters on the optimal solutions.

This paper presents an ASER (Accelerated Soft Error Rate) integral model. The model is based on the facts that the generated EHP/s(electron hole pairs) are diminished after some residual range of the incident alpha particle, where residual range is a function of the incident angle and the capping layer thickness over the semiconductor junction. The ASER is influenced by the flux of the alpha particles, the junction area ratio, the alpha particle incident angle when the critical charge is same as the collected charge, and the sizes of the alpha source and the chip. The model was examined with 8M static RAM samples. The measured ASER data showed good agreement with the calculated values using the model. The ASER decreased exponentially with respect to the operational voltage. As the capping layer thickness increases up to $16{\mu}m$, the ASER increases, and after that thickness, the ASER decreases. The ASER increased as the depth of BNW increased from $0{\mu}m\;to\;4{\mu}m$. and then saturated. The ASER decreased as the node capacitance increased from 2fF to 5fF.

Hydrodynamic ram of aircraft fuel tanks is one of main ballistic battle damages of an aircraft and has great importance to airframe survivability design. Basic concept, physics and research history of hydrodynamic ram are investigated. The penetration and internal detonation of a simple fuel tank and ICW(Intermediate Complexity Wing) are analyzed by computational method. Structural rupture and fluid burst are analytically realized using general coupling and coupling surface interaction. The results such as fluid pressure, tank stress and displacement are shown and future research chances are suggested based on the study.

현재까지 우리나라에서 주로 사용되고 있는 2차원 흐름 해석모형은 미연방 도로국(U.S. Federal Highway Administration)과 연계하여 Brigham Young University에서 개발된 SMS(Surface-Water Modeling System) 모형이다. SMS모형 중 이송 확산 모형으로는 RMA-4가 포함되나 이 모형은 최신 수치기법을 반영하지 못하는 등의 문제점들로 인해 실제 물리적 현상 모의에 있어서 한계를 가지고 있다. 따라서 물리적 현상에 대한 적절한 모의를 위한 개선과정을 통하여 RAM4가 개발되었다. 본 연구에서는 현장실측 자료를 바탕으로 RMA-4와의 모의결과 비교를 통하여 오염 확산 해석모형인 RAM4의 적용성을 검증하고자 하였다. RAM4와 RMA-4 모의에 있어서 격자구성과 경계조건은 동일하게 설정하였으며, 유량조건은 평수량과 갈수량으로 선정하였다. 각각의 유량시 수위조건이 틀려지므로 각 유량조건에 대한 격자구성을 달리하였다. 모의구간은 낙동강 본류의 수산대교에서 삼랑진 철교까지의 약 13km 구간을 대상으로 하였다. 모의 구간내에는 밀양-하남 하수처리장이 상류 좌안측에 위치하고 있고, 만곡, 단면의 축소 및 확대, 하중도, 합류 등의 지형학적 특징들이 비교적 짧은 구간에 나타나고 있어 모형의 검증에 적합하다고 판단된다.

This paper aims at studying the improvement of test method for t-weight sensitive fault (t-wsf) detect. The development of RAM fabrication technology results in not only the increase at device density on chips but also the decrease in line widths in VLSI. But, the chip size that was large and complex is shortened and simplified while the cost of chips remains at the present level, in many cases, even lowering. First of all, The testing patterns for RAM fault detect, which is apt to be complicated , need to be simplified. This new testing method made use of Local Lower Bound (L.L.B) which has the memory with the beginning pattern of 0(l) and the finishing pattern of 0(1). The proposed testing patterns can detect all of RAM faults which contain stuck-at faults, coupling faults. The number of operation is 6N at 1-weight sensitive fault, 9,5N at 2-weight sensitive fault, 7N at 3-weight sensitive fault, and 3N at 4-weight sensitive fault. This test techniques can reduce the number of test pattern in memory cells, saving much more time in test, This testing patterns can detect all static weight sensitive faults and pattern sensitive faults in RAM.

This paper is to study and develope a measurement apparatus for ferroelectricity. The apparatus consists of wave generation part, high voltage amplifier part, measurement part, data acquisition part and the related controll circuits. Single or double excitation wave is digitalized and sent to the external RAM of wave generation part by personal computer. These datas saved in the RAM are converted to analog excitation wave through D/A converter. The frequency of excitation wave is depend on the read-out speed of the RAM by clock pulse. Such generated wave is applied to high voltage amplifier as a input voltage. The output of high voltage amplifier is applied to ferroelectrics and the response is obtained from the charge amplifier of measurement part. The response is sampled and converted to digital datas through AID converter. These digital datas are automatically saved in the external RAM of acquisition part. The computer takes the digital datas and calculates the electric displacement D, the electric field and the dielectric constant $\varepsilon$. We tested for PZT ceramic sample and could observed the D-E hysteresis lops and ${\varepsilon}_s$-E hysteresis loops with good forms.

In this study, the influences of pollutant from Dae-po Stream and So-gam Stream located at the downstream of Nak-dong River on the water quality at Mul-geum water intake station were analyzed using RAMS model. Field measurements of velocity by ADCP, and water quality distribution of BOD and TP by water sampling were carried out to present the input and verification data for numerical simulations. The comparison between RAM2 and ADCP measurement, which aimed for the analysis of 2-D velocity distribution around Mul-geum water intake station showed that two results matched well along the spanwise direction. The prediction of pollutant concentration by RAM4 agreed fairly well with the measured data except for the points nearby right banks in the vicinity of tributary pollutant source. Flushing effect by the increase of mainstream discharge in Nak-dong River was analyzed to provide the damage mitigation in preparation for the accidental water pollution. With increasing mainstream discharge, high velocity and increased water quantity induced increasing dilution effect, thereby decreasing the inflow pollutant concentration rapidly.

In this research, items and contents of SONAR were derived from investigation of OMS/MP of previously-operated submarines and domestic and international references related to weapon system. Such items and contents were established in detail and were categorized into four separate groups after consulting system design experts and specialists in the field of SONAR's operation. Ultimately, based on wartime and peacetime scenario and operation concept of SONAR, RAM values were obtained through various methods using submarine-operating records and maintenance records for the past eleven years.

Refractive index and speeds of sound for the binary mixture of isomer of butanol (1) + cyclohexane, benzene and toluene (2) were measured at 308.15 K. The measured data were used to calculate deviation in refractive index ${\Delta}n$, ultrasonic speed ${\Delta}u$, isentropic compressibility $K_s^E$, available volume $V_a$, excess intermolecular free length $L_f$ and molecular association $M_A$. All the derived properties were correlated with polynomial equation. Ultrasonic speed data were predicted using various empirical correlations like Nomoto, van Dael, impedance dependence and theoretically with Schaaff's collision factor theory (CFT). Jacobson free length theory (FLT) was used to calculate $L_f$. The measured refractive index was also correlated with various mixing rules. The deviation in refractive index Δn and ultrasonic speed ${\Delta}u$ was used to determine the intermolecular interactions.
