  • In medical follow-up, equipment lifetesting, various military situations, and other fields, one often desires to calculate survival probability as a function of time, p(t). If the observer is able to record the time of occurrence of the event of interest (called a 'death'), then an empirical, non-parametric estimate may simply by obtained from the fraction of survivors after various elapsed times. The estimation is more complicated when the data are truncated, i.e., when the observer loses track of some individuals before death occurs. The product-limit method of Kaplan and Meier is one way of estimating p(t) when the mechanism causing truncation is independent of the mechanism causing death. This paper proposes jackknife estimators of logistic trans-formation and compares it to the product-limit method. A computer simulation is used to generate the times of death and truncation from a variety of assumed distributions.

  • In counterfire warfare, it is important to detect and attack enemy targets faster than the enemy using sensing The grided environmental data is usually provided by the numerical simulation coupled with a data assimilation technique and various inter- or extrapolation algorithms, both of which are based on the observation spanning from simple equipments to satellites. In order to employ the gridded environmental data in the M&S system frequently cutting area and changing its resolution, interpolation algorithms such as linear, cubic spline, IDW, and Kriging methods are necessary to apply. These methods, however, require much time in the M&S system. This paper introduces a technic to reduce time to change the resolution of data. using the binary search method, which finds a point to interpolate quickly and interpolate data in the vicinity of. We also show the efficiency of proposed methods by way of measuring the respective elapsed times.

  • Hygroscopic knitted cotton fabric was found to spontaneously absorb water showing a significantly wide concentration gradient in the absorption direction. A semi-empirical diffusion model was introduced to describe how the wicking behavior compared to the classical capillary model (Washburn's equation), which has been widely used in the textiles industry. The capillary sorption curve and the permeability coefficient, which are key variables for the model equations, were measured using an electronic balance. The concentration profile as a function of the wicking distance and the elapsed time was derived, based on the diffusion model. From the concentration profile, the wicking distance detectable by the human eye or a digital camera with the aid of an image-analysis system, could be described realistically as a function of the time. The classical capillary model could be modified by introducing the tortuous correction factor to match the diffusion model. Wicking models and data-processing techniques in the work could provide useful tools for objectively evaluating the textile's wicking performances.

  • The goal of researching a proper crowd animation is to design system that is satisfied with the reality of scenes, performance of system, and interaction with users to show the crowd vividly and effectively in virtual underwater world. In this paper, we smartly expressed the behavior patterns for flocks of fish in virtual underwater and we made up for the weak points in spending time and cost to produce crowd animation. We compared with the number of mesh, the number of fish, the number of frame, elapsed time, and resolution and analyzes them with the fish behavior simulating system. We developed a virtual underwater simulator using this system.

  • In-situ soil remediation mechanism through the vertical drains (VDs) is analyzed with numerical model as the error and complementary error function. Results from in-situ test and analysis indicate that the contaminant concentration ratio as initial one ( C/$C_0$) increases as the radius ratio ( r/R) increases from the injection well, and also increases as the depth ratio ( z/ H) increases from the top of contaminated area. The elapse time needed to attain $50\%$ and $90\%$ clean up level ($ t_{50},\;t_{90}$) increases as the radius ratio ( r/R) and the depth ratio ( z/ H) increase. As above results, the procedure of soil flushing in contaminated area using vertical drains makes progress from the top of injection well to the bottom of extraction well.

  • In this paper, the discharge properties due to time variation were investigated in order to estimate a electrical performance of the insulator for small transformer. AC 10[kVl applied to specimen was converted to $\pm$5[V] and stored to personal computer through A/D converter. A period of applied wave form and discharge values were divided into 64 parts and discharge values generated during 10 seconds were accumulated by phases. As a result, it was confirmed that count of discharge, total discharge and the variation degree of average discharge were decreased as time elapsed.

  • This paper describes a new algorithm for irregular shapes allocation (known as nesting) and cutting path optimization, both implemented in PC-based software with graphic user interface (GUI). Main characteristic of the nesting W is that it deals with only vertices of Placed Pieces to reduce calculation time and for effective allocation. And the other characteristic of the nesting program is that every parts are grouped with respect to their areas and placed along the column of placement region. The cutting paths can be determined by an optimization method called simulated annealing. It was shown that the developed code is superior to other previous nesting H in elapsed time and waste ratio.

  • This study was performed to evaluate the inactivation and microbial regrowth of heterotrophic and nitrifying bacteria using chloramine as a secondary disinfectant for drinding water distribution system. Three sets of the three reactors filled with the $Cl_2/NH_3-N$ ratio of 3:1, 4:1, and 5:1 were used in these experiments. Chloramine concentration were applied to each set of the reactors with $1mg/\ell$,\;2mg/\ell\;and\;3mg/\ell$, respectively. For the set with elapsed time and reached to zero level after 7 days. Heterotrophic bacteria remarkably increased and nitrification through the experimenatal period (21 day). Furthermore the regrowth of heterotrophic bacteria and nitrification were not found. More than $2mg/\ell$ of chloramine with $Cl_2/NH_3-N$ ratio of 3:1, the nitrification could be inhibited by 2 days of contact time.

  • We develop a real-time data transfer system for the Korea Microlensing Telescope Network (KMTNet) photometry data and test whether it is suitable for Korea Astronomy and Space Science Institute (KASI) and three different observatories, which are Cerro Tololo Inter-Ameriacan Observatory (CTIO) in Chile, Siding Springs Observatory (SSO) in Australia, and South African Astronomical Observatory (SAAO) in South Africa. For this test, we use a high speed global network being dedicated for researches. From the test, we obtain that the elapsed times between KASI and each three observatories, CTIO, SSO, and SAAO to transfer 650 MB of data are 99.0, 9.2, 119.0 seconds, respectively. This means that the system can be used for the real-time data processing of KMTNet.

  • Ultra-High Performance Concrete (UHPC) compared to normal concrete is exhibiting extremely high strength characteristics with compressive strength and tensile strength reaching 200MPa and 15MPa, respectively. The mechanical characteristics of UHPC can be thus exploited advantageously in the construction of structure through the reduction of the cross-sectional area and fabrication of slim and light-weight of the structural members. In the case where the structural member is made of UHPC, the occurrence of crack can be prevented by releasing the restraint provided by the form in due time. This research performs parametric study of the failure characteristics of concrete such as failure energy and softening curve suggested by the viscous crack model approximating the failure of concrete. The scope of this research contains the results of tests performed to investigate the strength of UHPC during early elapsed time.
