The Army's rocket missile is a one-shot weapon system, which is produced and used for only one mission, and requires high reliability. While reliability analysis with failure data can result in underestimation of the life distribution, reliability analysis with all the non-failure data can result in overestimation of the life distribution. Under or overestimation of the life distribution can lead to cost increase by early disposal or complete observation of all rocket missiles. In order to overcome this problem, the Army suggests the guideline of the number of samples from non-failure data for reliability analysis with failure data. However, the currently used sampling method can generate errors for predicting the failure rate. To solve this problem, this study proposes a new sampling procedure for predicting a future failure rate using non-failure data. The comparison test between the currently used sampling method and the proposed sampling method is conducted and the result shows that the proposed sampling method can predict the future failure rate more accurately.

Accelerated life testing (ALT) of a system is commonly used to reduce time and cost. ALT is achieved by subjecting the test systems to more severe conditions than the normal ones to obtain estimates of life distribution under normal condition. The major interest of this research is to use a model of incorporating the common environmental effect on the components serially linked into a system-so called frailty model for the system life time distribution under each stress and to discuss the related data analysis and comparison of the model with the generally used one. The profile likelihood is used to get an initial values required to compute maximum likelihood estimates and simulation is carried for comparison.

In this study TBM disc cutter prediction models including Gehring, CSM and NTNU models were investigated and the characteristics of the models were examined. The influence of penetration, uniaxial compressive strength and abrasiveness index on the models was analyzed. The life of disc cutter linearly increases with penetration per revolution and decreases with increasing uniaxial compressive strength of rocks. As the abrasiveness index, CAI, increases, the life of disc cutter in Gehring and CSM model decreases. On the contrary, the life of disc cutter life in NTNU model decreases with increasing CLI. Also, comparisons of predicted disc life were made between models using actual job site data.

This study was undertaken to find out distribution and contamination sources of microbes on the processing steps and to estimate quality index and shelf life of fried bean curd. It was necessary that the sanitation for water, processing environment and instruments at digestion, formation, cutting and processes after frying must be controlled and microbial growth at digestion and formation must be inhibited, to process efficiently and to improve shelf life of fried bean curd. It was evaluated that quality indexes as to sensory evaluation, especially texture, mold generation and total viable cell counts will be useful to estimate shelf life of fried bean curd and that shelf life of fried bean curd was 6 days.

In this paper, we introduce the goodness of fit test procedure for lifetime distribution using step stress accelerated lifetime data. Using the nonpapametric estimate of acceleration factor, we prove the strong consistence of empirical distribution function under null hypothesis. The critical vailues of Kolmogorov-Smirnov, Anderson-Darling, Cramer-von Mises statistics are computed when the lifetime distibution is assumed to be exponential and Weibull. The power of test statistics are compared through Monte-Cairo simulation study.

In this paper, we propose three estimators of Kullback-Leibler Information functions using the data from accelerated life tests. This acceleration model is assumed to be a cumulative exposure model. Some asymptotic properties of proposed estimators are proved. Simulations are performed for comparing the small sample properties of the proposed estimators under use condition of accelerated life test.

고크롬강은 산업용 발전설비의 효율적인 열교환을 위해 수천개의 튜브로 구성된 보일러에 적용되고 있다. 이러한 보일러 튜브는 고온에 노출되어 있으며, 튜브 내면에는 고온의 증기가 고압으로 존재하고 있다. 따라서 보일러 튜브는 장기간 고온의 환경에서 사용되기 때문에 고온강도와 고온내산화 및 내부식 특성이 요구된다. 보일러 튜브의 열화는 이세조직 변화에 따른 고온강도의 저하를 재료내부의 열화와 고온산화 및 부식 등 외부환경에 의 한 열화로 크게 두 가지로 대별된다. 이러한 보일러 튜브의 수명평가는 튜브의 수명을 미리 예측하여 적절한 시점에 교체함으로서 운전 중 손상에 따른 발전정지 등을 방지하여 막대한 비용을 절감할 수 있기 때문에 현장에서는 중요한 의미를 갖는다. 본 연구에서는 보일러 튜브의 여러 가지 수명평가 방법 중 현재 산업용 발전설비의 보일러에 적용되고 있는 X-20 고크롬강의 고온산화 거동을 조사하여 향후 보일러 튜브의 수명평가 방법 중 산화스케일을 이용한 방법에 활용하는데 있어 기초 자료로 이용하고자 한다.

최근 IT산업의 눈부신 성장과 고성능 전자소자가 개발됨에 따라 전력계량분야에서도 많은 변화가 있었다. 전자소자를 사용하여 다양한 기능들을 구현할 수 있는 전자식전력량계가 이미 10여년 전부터 도입하여 운용하고 있으며, 다양한 요금제도를 통한 전력사용의 합리화 및 수요관리, 원격검침 등에 기여하고 있다. 전자식전력량계는 현행 관련법령에 따라 전력량계의 검정유효기간이 7년으로 규정되어 있어 검정유효기간의 조정에 대한 필요성이 제기되어 왔다. 검정유효기간은 제품의 수명과 경제적 교체주기에 따라 결정할 사안이므로 이에 대한 기초자료로 활용하고자 가속열화시험 등 몇 가지 수명예측기법을 이용하여 현재 운영중인 전자식전력량계의 수명을 예측하고 그 결과를 제시하고자 한다.

축전지는 비상용 전원으로 사회 많은 분야에서 다양하게 사용되며, 유사시 예비전원으로 그 중요성이 부각되고 있다. 이러한 경우에 사용가능한 축전지를 선별하고, 그 상태를 체크하는 것은 무엇보다도 중요하다. 본 논문에서는 축전지의 잔존수명을 보다 짧은 시간에 효과적으로 분석할 수 있는 순간방전시험을 이용하여 축전지의 잔존수명을 판단하고자 하였다. 실험결과 순간방전 시험을 통한 mode 2에서의 임피던스 값과 실부하 방전시험 결과가 서로 일치함을 알 수 있었으며, 이를 통해 축전지의 잔존수명을 파악할 수 있을 것으로 사료된다. 본 논문은 추후에 계속되는 축전지 잔존수명 분석을 위한 기초 자료로 활용될 수 있을 것이다.

More than sixty percentage of highway in South Korea were constructed by concrete pavements and more than half of the concrete pavements were twenty years or older. The most of highway have difficulty in providing detour due to the traffic and road condition of South Korea. So far, asphalt concrete has been used for the overlay of aged cement concrete pavement. However, the frequent early damage and maintenance of typical asphalt overlay due to repetitive maintenance causes inconvenience of road users and expensive costs. It is necessary to investigate the factors affecting the performance of asphalt concrete overlay to improve the performance of asphalt overlay. However, the performance data of asphalt concrete overlay in South Korea does not exist. In this research, to investigate on the factors affecting the life of asphalt concrete overlay was attempted based on statistical analysis of the performance data of asphalt concrete overlay included in LTPP (Long-Term Pavement Performance) Database of U.S.A.
