Automobile manufacturing companies should provide the products and service that can satisfy consumers who usually want various kinds of automobiles. This paper studied the relations among several demographic characteristics(gender, age, occupation, income) of consumers and automobile's attributes(engine performance, engine displacement, price, maintenance expenses, color, etc.) and preferred automobile(kind, size, company, price). For the relation research we established a model and related hypotheses and used a questionnaire survey, where 350 subjects were questioned. After the analysis, many statistically significant results are obtained : consumer's gender has relations with the preference for engine performance, engine displacement, price, color, and design; age has relations with the preference for engine displacement, maintenance expenses, free checking during A/S period, etc., occupation has relations with the preference for engine performance, engine displacement, price, maintenance expenses, fuel efficiency, etc. : income has relations with the preference for engine performance, engine displacement, price, maintenance expenses, mileage, reputation of car manufacturing companies, etc.; price and fuel efficiency has relations with the preference for car manufacturing companies. These results suggest the consumer-oriented sales of automobiles and are expected to be helpful for the effective strategy development of automobile marketing.

An Emergency Diesel Generator (EDG) manufactured by a French company Wartsila SACM, is a tandem type engine, consisted of two 10 cylindered diesel engines on each side. Manual provided by the manufacturer states that engine bearing requires inspection every 15 years. However, it is difficult for an inspector to access through a manhole located in the lower compartment of engine. Furthermore, during a routine or scheduled maintenance, it is not possible to disassemble main engine bearing and crank shaft, and perform inspection. Two methodologies are suggested here to resolve the problem. One method is to lift the engine and partially perform the maintenance service, and the other method is to disassemble the engine completely and to perform maintenance service by the manufacturer. Pros and cons of two methodologies were thoroughly compared.

The solution of maintenance decision support system for the gas turbine engine, which is currently operating in GUNSAN combined cycle power plant, was developed and is consist of online monitoring module, periodic performance trending module, optimal compressor washing interval analysis module and hot component management module. Also, GUI platform was applied to this solution for the user to monitoring the analyzed result of engine performance condition and then to make a decision of the consequent maintenance action. In online condition monitoring module, the performance degradation of engine is provided by the analysis of difference between the real time measurement data compared to exist engine performance. The optimal compressor washing interval module produced the washing interval of maximum net profit value by researching the maintenance expense and the loss profit value corresponds to the performance degradation with economic assessment algorithm. Thus, this solution support the user to enable the optimal maintenance and operation of gas turbine engine with overall analysis of engine condition and main information.

Even though K-series combat equipment's engine depot maintenance cycle of ROK army is 10years In average, that of the K-9 Self Propelled(SP) howitzer which has been fielded since 99 $3{\sim}4$years causing limitations to effective equipment operations and combat-readiness. Therefore, the current K-9 self-propelled howitzer engine operation period of 1,500 hours, which is greatly shorter than other equipments, had to be verified. In order to find the optimum depot maintenance cycle, related field operation conditions were verified and opinions were collected, and also the background on current depot maintenance cycle setting was studied.

This study presents a detailed analysis of aircraft engine maintenance cost based on the relationships between engine performance and geometric parameters. Some trend equations based on the engine performance and maintenance database were developed for the estimation of shop-visit interval, work-scope, man-hours, material cost and Life Limited Part cost. The results show that this approach can give a more reasonable and detailed estimation of engine maintenance cost than older empirical methods.

National agencies and corporations are making a lot of efforts to educate mechanics from high school to university and enterprise training center to train as skilled mechanic. but the theoretical training using textbooks and the training using equipment not used in the field did not provide proper maintenance training. And education using special equipment or assuming dangerous situation was very dangerous, so we were carrying out education with video or photo. In recent, there have been a number of cases in which effective training simulations have been researched and developed in order to experience situations and solve problems safely through simulation from simple maintenance to special maintenance by combining VR and AR. This paper describes the comparative study of the existing APIs such as Danuri VR, DisTi Engine and Remote AR for general purpose AR/VR contents. We also proposed a AR/VR API based on Unity 3D Engine for AR/VR maintenance contents. The API can be used for maintenance contents developers efficiently.

소형제트엔진은 주로 연구, 실험, 교육 등의 목적으로 사용되고 있다. 이러한 소형제트엔진은 고도가 높고 고속으로 비행하는 드론에 추력 발생 장치로서의 중요한 역할을 수행할 수 있다. 그러나 엔진의 실질적인 활용을 위해서는 기존의 유선으로 구성된 컨트롤러를 무선으로 제어할 수 있는 방식으로 재구성하는 것이 필요하다. 이 중에서도 연료펌프의 무선제어시스템이 우선적으로 개발되어야만 다른 부분에 대한 무선제어개발이 가능해질 것이다. 본 논문에서는 소형 제트 엔진의 연료 펌프를 무선으로 제어할 수 있는 방식을 적용한 임베디드 시스템의 구성과 방식에 대해 제안하고 있다.

Main engine failures in ship operations can lead to a major damage in terms of the vessel itself and the financial cost. In this respect, monitoring of a vessel's main engine condition is crucial in ensuring the vessel's performance and reducing the maintenance cost. The collection of a huge amount of vessel operational data in the maritime industry has never been easier with the advent of advanced data collection technologies. Real-time monitoring of the condition of a vessel's main engine has a potential to create significant value in maritime industry. This study presents a case study on the establishment of upper control limit to detect vessel's main engine failures using multivariate control chart. The case study uses sample data of an ocean-going vessel operated by a major marine services company in Korea, collected in the period of 2016.05-2016.07. This study first reviews various main engine-related variables that are considered to affect the condition of the main engine, and then attempts to detect abnormalities and their patterns via multivariate control charts. This study is expected to help to enhance the vessel's availability and provide a basis for a condition-based maintenance that can support proactive management of vessel's main engine in the future.

In our thesis we introduce case study for qualifying university graduates system for efficient maintenance. First, we find out factors to make maintenance difficult and present solution for them. Second, we convert system architecture from algorithm-oriented to driving-engine-based, design DB schema, develop algorithms for important components of proposed system, and implement them. Through results of system operation, we show that our system can reduce maintenance cost fairly.

The accurate engine output is basically one of important factors for the analysis of engine performance. Nowadays in-cylinder pressure analyzer in internal combustion engine is also an indispensable tool for engine research and development, environment regulation and maintenance of engine. The combustion analysis is desperately needed in order to induce a correct judgment on the condition of the engine and suggest the specific ways to improvement as well as the correct engine output. And these tool is advantageous to reduce fuel consumption and maintenance of the engine. In this study, using the developed measuring kit, combustion analysis of marine generator engine which was adapted as test engine was carried out. It was verified that the good operation condition of the engine as well as contributing to fuel savings by checking and readjusting accurately the irregular combustion of the test engine were accomplished. From the results all above, it was recognized that the measuring kit by new method for engine output was developed and verified for its utilities.
