This article deals with the problem of testing the equality of the scale parameters in nonregular Pareto distributions.We propose Bayesian hypothesis testing procedures for the equality of the scale parameters under the noninformative prior. The noninformative prior is usually improper which yields a calibration problem that makes the Bayes factor to be de ned up to a multiplicative constant. So we propose the default Bayesia hypothesis testing procedures based on the fractional Bayes factor and the intrinsic Bayes factors under the reference priors. Simulation study and a real data example are provided.

This article deals with the problem of testing for the equality of the shape parameters in two inverse Weibull distributions. We propose Bayesian hypothesis testing procedures for the equality of the shape parameters under the noninformative prior. The noninformative prior is usually improper which yields a calibration problem that makes the Bayes factor to be defined up to a multiplicative constant. So we propose the default Bayesian hypothesis testing procedures based on the fractional Bayes factor and the intrinsic Bayes factors under the reference priors. Simulation study and an example are provided.

It is possible for the nation's largest flowmeter calibration system in K-water to calibrate flow rate up to $2,700m^3/h$ and diameter 800mm. However, the calibration and measurement capability of K-water's system is not satisfied in comparison with other developed countries. In this study, we find the dominant factors related to the uncertainty of weight and time measurement for gravimetric flowmeter calibration system. As a results of improving the system, the combined standard uncertainty has been improved $1.099{\times}10^{-3}$ to $2.332{\times}10^{-4}$. So calibration and measurement capability got 0.08 percent of the relative expanded uncertainty for maximum flow rate using the coverage factor(k=2).

본 논문은 국내 서남해안 해상풍력발전 하부기초설계 시 신뢰성 기반의 한계상태설계법 적용을 위한 말뚝기초의 부분안전계수를 제안하고자 한다. 우선, 해상풍력관련 국제 설계기준서인 IEC, GL, DNV, API, ISO, EUROCODE 등에서 제시한 다양한 부분안전계수 및 저항계수를 비교 분석하였다. 그리고 부안-영광 및 새만금 해역의 서남해안 해상풍력단지의 지반조사 결과를 가지고 불확실성 분석을 수행하였다. 불확실성 분석 결과를 토대로 신뢰성해석을 수행하여 지반정수에 대한 부분안전계수를 산정하였으며, 서남해안 지역의 해상풍력 말뚝기초의 부분안전계수는 1.3으로 평가되었다. 본 논문에서 제안된 부분안전계수는 서남해안에서의 지반조사 결과를 근거로 산정된 것이므로 기타 광역단위 해역에 활용하기 위해서는 추가적인 조사 및 지반정수에 대한 불확실성 분석을 통해 보정이 필요하다고 판단된다.

We demonstrated that high-stability thermistors can be calibrated with an uncertainty less than 1 mK, if the error due to the heat conduction is minimized. We first investigated the effect of the self-heating of typical thermistor probes to see how accurate we need to determine the effect of self-heating. We, then, calibrated thermistors and fitted the results using various modeling equations. We found out that the heat conduction is an important factor in achieving the calibration uncertainty under 1 mK for thermistors when the diameter of the probe is as thick as 10 mm. Therefore, we controlled the room temperature within $0.5^{\circ}C$ to minimize the heat conduction error during the calibration. The calibration with an uncertainty below 1 mK was possible when the stabilization time for each calibration was long enough to obtain a good thermal equilibrium.

For the traceability of high current measuring sensors of high power testing department II(HPTD II) in Korea Electrotechnology Research Institute(KERI), additional comparison tests with reference test object were performed repeatedly. The first intercomparison has been carried out between the reference shunt for Asia and high current shunt of HPTD II in 2013. This paper compares the test results of the calibration in 2014 with them in 2015. The assigned new scale factor of high current sensors will be applied to high power tests in HPTD II until the next high current intercomparison.

Verification of dose distribution is an essential part of ensuring the treatment planning system's (TPS) calculated dose will achieve the desired outcome in radiation therapy. Each measurement have uncertainty associated with it. It is desirable to reduce the measurement uncertainty. A best approach is to reduce the uncertainty associated with each step of the process to keep the total uncertainty under acceptable limits. Point dose patient specific quality assurance (QA) is recommended by American Association of Medical Physicists (AAPM) and European Society for Radiotherapy and Oncology (ESTRO) for all the complex radiation therapy treatment techniques. Relative and absolute point dose measurement methods are used to verify the TPS computed dose. Relative and absolute point dose measurement techniques have a number of steps to measure the point dose which includes chamber cross calibration, electrometer reading, chamber calibration coefficient, beam quality correction factor, reference conditions, influences quantities, machine stability, nominal calibration factor (for relative method) and absolute dose calibration of machine. Keeping these parameters in mind, the estimated relative percentage uncertainty associated with the absolute point dose measurement is 2.1% (k=1). On the other hand, the relative percentage uncertainty associated with the relative point dose verification method is estimated to 1.0% (k=1). To compare both point dose measurement methods, 13 head and neck (H&N) IMRT patients were selected. A point dose for each patient was measured with both methods. The average percentage difference between TPS computed dose and measured absolute relative point dose was 1.4% and 1% respectively. The results of this comparative study show that while choosing the relative or absolute point dose measurement technique, both techniques can produce similar results for H&N IMRT treatment plans. There is no statistically significant difference between both point dose verification methods based upon the t-test for comparing two means.

Reliability analysis for a proposed limit state bridge design code is performed. In order to introduce reliability concept to design code, the proposed live load model is based on truck weight survey. Test data of domestic material strengths are collected to model statistical properties of member strengths. Sample RC and PSC girder sections are designed following the safety factor format of the proposed code and compared with the current design practice. Reliability indexes are calculated and examined for material and member resistance factor formats and sample calibrations of safety factors are presented. It is concluded that the proposed code provides reasonable level of reliability compared to the international design standards.
