The purpose of this research is to grasp the spatial environmental needs of a three generation family, thereby to suggest some major concepts which can be used as basic design guidelines for a three generation family housing. Data were collected through a questionnaire survey from 467 housewives living in a three generation family households. Results showed that most respondents want to be seperated from their old parents. This tendency, however, changed once a housing alternative for the three generation living was assumed to have been developed. The most preferred alternative housing units were identified. The desirable proportions of the unit alternatives were 34% for a single unit. 28% for the two connected units. 7% for two separated units within a building and 32% for two separated units in different buildings within the same housing complex.

We propose a sequential method to construct approximate confidence limits for the ratio of two independent sequences of binomial variates with unequal sample sizes. Due to the nonexistence of an unbiased estimator for the ratio, we develop the procedure based on a modified maximum likelihood estimator (MLE). We generalize the results of Cho and Govindarajulu (2008) by defining the sample-ratio when sample sizes are not equal. In addition, we investigate the large-sample properties of the proposed estimator and its finite sample behavior through numerical studies, and we make comparisons from the sample information view points.

An economic procedure of selective assembly is proposed when a product is composed of two mating components. The major qualify characteristic of the product is the clearance between the two components. The components are divided into several classes prior to assembly. The component characteristics are assumed to be independently and normally distributed with equal variance. The procedure is designed so that the proportions of both components in their corresponding classes are the same. A cost model is developed based on a quadratic loss function and methods of obtaining the optimal class limits as well as the optimal number of classes are provided. Formulas for obtaining the proportion of rejection and the unavailability of mating components are also provided. The proposed model is compared with the equal width and the equal area partitioning methods using a numerical example.

The present investigation is mainly focused on studying the flexural behavior of reinforced geopolymer concrete (RGPC) beams under pure bending. In this study, copper slag (CS) was used as a partial replacement of fine aggregate. Sand and CS were blended in different proportions (100:0, 80:20, 60:40 and 40:60) (sand:CS) by weight. Fly ash and ground granulated blast furnace slag (GGBS) were used as binders and combination of sodium hydroxide (8M) and sodium silicate solution were used for activating the binders. The reinforcement of RGPC beam was designed as per guidelines given in the IS 456-2000 and tested under pure bending (two-point loading) after 28 days of ambient curing. After conducting two point load test the flexural parameters viz., moment carrying capacity, ultimate load, service load, cracking moment, cracking load, crack pattern and ultimate deflection were studied. From the results, it is concluded that RGPC beams have shown better performance up to 60% of CS replacement.

This study reports a preliminary finding of the types and numbers of graphs being presented in the annual reports of about thirty top listed companies trading publicly in the stock markets of three countries-Thailand (SET), Malaysia (BM), and Singapore (SGX)-that were chosen based on their inclusion in the ASEAN Stars Index under the ASEAN Trading Link project. A total of 6,753 graphs from nineteen sectors were extracted and examined. Banking, real estate, and telecommunications are ranked the three most condense sectors, accounting for 50.2% of the total number of graphs observed. The three most used graphs are the Conservative Bar, Donut graph and Stack Bar. Less than one percent of Infographic type graphs were used. The five most depicted graphed variables are Asset, Revenue, Net profit, Liability, and Dividend. Using rudimentary framework to detect distorted or misleading statistical graphs, the study found 60.6% of the graphs distorted across the three markets, SET, BM, and SGX. BM ranked first in percentages of graphs being distortedly presented (73%). The other two markets, SET and SGX, have about the same proportions, 53.88% and 53.03%, respectively. Likewise, the proportions of Well-designed versus Inappropriate-designed graphs of the latter two markets are a little over one time (SET = 1 : 1.17; SGX = 1 : 1.13), whereas the proportion is almost triple for the BM market (BM = 1 : 2.70). In addition, the trend of distorted graphs found is slightly increasing as the longevity of the ASEAN Stars Index increases. One possible explanation for the relatively equal proportion of inappropriate graphs found is that SET is the smallest market and SGX, though the largest, is the most regulated market. BM, on the other hand, may want to present their financial data in the most attractive manner to prospective investors, thus, regulatory constraints and governance structure are still lenient.

Ten 18.5-month old Holstein steers were allocated into two diet groups of five and fed either concentrates as control group or potato by-products based silage (PBS) as experimental group for six months to investigate the effect of PBS on growth performance, carcass characteristics and fatty acid composition of carcass fats. The PBS diet consisted, in a DM basis, of 74.5% PBS, 16% hay, and 9.5% soybean milk residue (SMR). The control diet consisted, in a DM basis, of 82.5% concentrates and 17.5% hay. There were no significant differences in the overall average daily gain (ADG), dry matter intake (DMI), feed efficiency, yield score and meat quality score of dressed carcass between the two diet groups. There were no statistical differences in DM, crude protein (CP), and ether extract (EE) of beef and melting point of all adipose tissues from steers fed both diets. The PBS-fed steers tended to have lower Warner Bratzler shear (WBS) values than in the concentrate-fed steers (13.0 vs. 17.7 lb, p<0.1). At both sampling times 3 and 6 months of feeding period, PBS-fed steers had higher proportions of polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFA), especially linoleic (C18:2) acids in subcutaneous fat than in control group (p<0.05). PBS-fed steers had significantly higher proportions of PUFA, especially C18:2 fatty acids than in concentrate-fed steers in carcass fats (p<0.05). In conclusion, feeding PBS to fattening steers has shown to have the same potential as concentrate feeding in terms of effect on the growth performance, feed efficiency, and carcass characteristics. Interestingly, PBS also seems preferable to concentrates because it increased the proportion of C18:2 fatty acid composition of carcass fats which is valuable for beef consumers.

이 논문에서는 두 독립인 이항 확률의 비교에서 이항 확률 중 하나 또는 모두가 0.05보다 작을 경우의 두 확률의 비교에 대한 표본수 계산의 문제를 다루었다. Whitte-more(1981)는 여러 공변량에 근거한 로지스틱 회귀를 이용하여 극소 확률의 경우에 대한 수정 표본수 공식을 제안하였다. 이를 독립된 비율의 비교에 적용하여 이로부터 계산한 표본수는 일반적으로 많이 사용하는 근사 정규 방법, 특히 극소 비율의 비교에 대한 방법이 아닌 근사 정규 방법의 표본수 보다도 훨씬 큰 표본수를 제시하고 있다. 그러므로, 응용분야의 통계인들은 극소 반응 확률에 근거한 임상 시험을 계획할 경우 계획의 단계에서 의도하는 검정력을 확보하기 위해 교과서에 제시된 표본수 공식이나 부표에 의존한다면 위험할 수 있음을 이 논문의 결과가 말해 주고 있다.

설문조사에서 어떤 주제와 관련된 여러 항목들을 제시하고 응답자들의 가치 기준에 따라 응답하게 한 후, 그 응답들을 종합하여 항목들 간의 순위를 결정할 목적으로 설문을 제시하는 경우가 많이 있다. 이 경우 가장 일반적으로 사용하는 것이 순위척도(ranking scales)와 평정 척도(rating scales)이다. 순위척도 중에서도 주어진 항목들 중 가장 중요한 것을 하나 이상 선택하게 하는 축소순위척도(reduced ranking scales)가 많이 사용된다. 그러나 실제로 항목간의 순위를 결정하는 과정에서 순위응답을 고려하는 경우는 극히 드물다. 본 연구는 순위절차(ranking procedures)에 의한 설문응답에서, 순위응답을 고려하여 항목순위를 결정하는 방법들을 고찰하였다. 또 몇 가지 사례를 통해 그 방법들을 비교 분석하였으며, 이 과정에서 순위척도를 조건부평정척도로 간주하였다. 축소순위척도에 의한 항목순위결정의 경우, 1순위와 2순위 그리고 3순위에 각각 2와 1 그리고 0의 값을 부여함으로써 1순위의 응답비율을 희석하지 않으면서 2순위 응답비율을 적절히 수용하여 보다 합리적인 항목순위를 결정할 수 있음을 확인할 수 있었다.

Many industrial products such as paints, ink and adhesives are composed of the ingredients of a mixture. In mixture experiments, the characteristics of quality(response) depends only on the proportions of the ingredients and does not depend on the total amount of the mixture. This article discusses the constrained mixture experimental design, the data analysis, and the optimum formulation of ingredients based on the two quality characteristics - taste and flavor. It IS shown that efficient designs can be constructed from D-optimal criterion. Special cubic models were selected as the final mixture response surfaces for both reponses. The desirability function was used for the optimization of the two responses.

An investigation into using Oyster Shells partially or wholly as aggregate in concrete is reported. The proportion of shells was varied with ratios of 10, 30, 50 and 100% by volume of fine and coarse aggregate. Two water/cement ratios of 0.45, 0.55 were considered and air-entraining superplasticizer was used to improve concrete workability Two strength properties (compressive and flexural) were considered. Strength tests were carried out at the ages of 1, 3, 7, 14 and 28 days. The variations of workability, weight and density of the specimens with different proportions of Oyster Shells were also studied. Results showed that compressive and flexural strengths decreased with increase in proportion of Oyster Shells to aggregate in the reference mixes. The workability of concrete batches decreased with increase in the proportion of Oyster Shells in the mixes. The same trend was observed with density and weight of the specimens
