The speed and power performance of a ship is not only a guarantee issue between the ship owner and the ship-yard, but also is related with the Energy Efficiency Design Index (EEDI) regulation. Recently, International Organization for Standardization (ISO) published the procedure of the measurement and assessment for ship speed and power at sea trial. The results of speed and power performance measured in actual sea condition must inevitably include various uncertainty factors. In this study, the influence for systematic error of shaft power measurement system was examined using the Monte Carlo simulation. It is found that the expanded uncertainty of speed and power performance is approximately ${\pm}1.2%$ at the 95% confidence level(k=2) and most of the uncertainty factor is attributed to shaft torque measurement system.

In this paper a method is presented for the optimal control of a nuclear reactor at equilibrium state by use of a digital computer. Using the optimal control theory, we formulate the control problem of the reactor as a discrete-time linear regulator problem. A quadratic performance index is defined. The effects of choosing different performance index weighting matrices to the feedback gain matrix and reactor transient responses are studied for the deterministic optimal control with all state variables accessible to measurement.

Recently, the urban regeneration project has been performed actively at home and abroad. The stake-holders in urban regeneration project are various and complicated, and has large scale during a long life period. Also they show the characteristics of a mega-project and most mixed-use form. Therefore, the urban regeneration has a lot of potential risk factors from project beginning to completion. It means they need efficient and continuous risk management in terms of performance measurement. But the current domestic construction project does not reflect risk management in view of performance measurement. This study proposes the risk management methodology by mapping risk factors with major performance indexes of the urban regeneration project.

Process capability indices have been widely used in manufacturing industries to provide a quantitative measure of process performance. PCIs have been developed to represent process capability more exactly. In the previous studies, only one designated location on each part has been measured. But multiple measurement locations on each part are required to calculate the reliable process capability. In this paper, we propose a new process capability index dealing the multiple measurement locations on each part. Also we showed the relationship between the new index and sigma level according to the number of measurement locations.

Sound pressure levels in the receiving room while testing airborne sound insulation performance are varied by the measuring points. This may increase the measurement error, then decrease the measurement reliability. With this reason the research has carried out on the method to reduce deviations of sound pressure level in the ISO type rectangular laboratory focusing on the measurement of airborne sound insulation performance. Tests were made to see the effect of sound absorption in the receiving room, loudspeaker locations, microphones locations and flanking transmission path. Consequently, it was resulted that sound absorption in the receiving room and the loudspeaker location have influence on the sound level deviations especially in the low frequency. The microphone location was very important to get measurement reliability. The effective measuring point, which the sound level difference with average sound pressure level is within 2 dB, could yield most reliable average sound pressure level. Therefore it is necessary to find the effective measuring points in the receiving room. Flanking transmission path should be sealed using sound absorber or magnet etc. to prevent from lowering the sound insulation performance.

The competitiveness of the domestic construction industry is faced with a serious crisis due to the decrease of domestic demands, and is below par with that of developed countries as well as of competing nations. There is a pressing need for a way to overcome this problem and restore competitiveness of the domestic construction industry. Therefore, this research, through real case studies, suggested a method of evaluating construction performance, which eliminates waste factors in each construction phase and maximizes cost saving effects.

Precision tillage is designed to till lands variably according to their firmness. Therefore, it is necessary to measure soil firmness in fields and present it in a form with which the variable tillage on be performed. Such forms may be classified into two categories: sensor-based and map-based forms. The map-based approach appears to be inevitable until the technology develops high enough to secure the sensor-based approaches. The first step for map-based precision tillage may be to develop a tillage recommendation map. In this study, a tractor-mountable automatic soil firmness measurement system was developed to construct a cone index map. The system is comprised of three ASAE Standard cone penetrometers and a hydraulic unit for controlling operation of the penetrometers. The system is designed to conduct stop-and-go measurements in fields. The measurements from the three penetrometers are transferred to a microcomputer and the average cone index was calculated. This average cone index was taken as soil firmness of the location where the measurement was made. The cone indices thus determined were used to construct a cone index map using the ArcView software. The system also displays the soil penetration resistance, cone index and soil depth as the cone penetrates into the soil. The field performance of the system was evaluated and the cone index maps at different depths were also presented.

The purpose of this study is to develop and prove service quality measurement model and indicators which are able to measure objectively service quality of digital libraries in Korea. Literature review and Delphi survey are used to investigate service quality dimensions. User perceived service quality performance was measured to validate DL-SQI model with three digital libraries. Finally DL-SQI(Digital Library-Service Quality Index) model was developed which is composed of four primary dimensions. The survey results reveal that reliability coefficient is 0.8 which means high reliability of survey and it suggests that DL-SQI model based on the above dimensions is proved through confirmatory factor analysis.

This study proposed new method to decide the reference model necessary for design PID controller. In generally, control design problems using the reference model have the following two factors. One factor is that numerical model of the controlled system can be obtained extremely, and the other is that specification for the closed-loop dynamic performance is pure moderate. Therefore, the control design procedure is essentially based on the partial reference model matching which offers a reasonable method to simplify the design and the controller configuration under the controlled system uncertainty. ITAE(Integral of time-multiplied absolute error) performance index and Kitamori method etc. which were used a reference model method had a limit to settling time and rising time of reference model that it arrived to steady state response according to the controlled system. On this study, if it only knew peak time of overshoot and settling time by measurement signal of the controlled system, it can be made the reference model easily. We proposed new method to improve performance index of the reference model superior to existing reference model index and illustrate the numerical simulation results to show the effectiveness of proposed control method design.

An increased use of teams of actors within complex systems has led to the emergence of various approaches for the assessment of different features associated with team performance. Over the last two decades, the performance of teams in complex systems has received considerable attention from the human factors community, and a number of methods have been developed in order to assess and evaluate team performance. The purpose of this paper is to propose a methodology for measuring team efficiency of operators in the advanced main control room of Korean nuclear power plant. Team efficiency is an index which is estimated of gabs between individual performances and team performance. The index was developed to compare among teams through past all performance measurements.
