The objective of this study was to establish a procedure of concurrent engineering which can be easily a, pp.icable in Korean industry. An investigation of various techniques of concurrent engineering was conducted. Problems of Korean companies which can be resolved by concurrent engineering techniques were identified. Techniques which can resolve these problems at the relatively low cost and without complicated computer facilities were selected and form a procedure for this study. The procedure was a, pp.ied to a manufacturing company for validation. It was found that this procedure can substantially reduce time and cost of R&D and manufacturing.

The purpose of this paper is to present a procedure for feasibility analysis of new hospitals. The major steps of the procedure proposed consists of determination of location for a new hospital, analysis of the community served, facilities planning, estimation of capital requirements and financial analysis. Technical details of the necessary analyses are covered by providing relevant information most of which is readily available in Korea. The procedure proposed in this paper can be applied not only for the case of the general hospital but also for the case of the clinic.

This paper presents a heuristic solution procedure for the quadratic assignment problem, ranking procedure, which can handle the case where not all of the facilities have the same size of area. The ranking procedure is found more efficient than two other existing heuristic procedures from results of computational experience. Based on the out-patients flow pattern and the procedure developed, an improved layout of the three existing general hospitals is developed with the objective of minimizing the total distance travelled by patients in the central and the out-patient clinic.

The structural topology optimization presented in this paper is based on an evolutionary procedure, developed by Xie and Steven, in which the low stressed material of a structure is removed from the structure step-by-step until an optimal design is obtained. By appling this procedure a layout or topology of a structure can be found from a initial block of material. The purpose of this paper is to implement the evolutionary procedure, introduce some novel features and investigate its feasibility by studying a few examples.

A two-stage procedure is proposed to estimate the population proportion of a sensitive group. The proposed procedure is obtained by combining the direct question method and a modified randomized response technique. It is verified that the proposed procedure is more efficient than existing methods under some mild conditions.

This paper presents a method for procedure-based on-line program replacement for user applications. To deal with the size change in the procedure to replace, the method uses the unmapped area of process address space for mapping a new version of procedure. The method is effective in that and it does not cause large performance loss during the replacement or require any additional software layer for the replacement. The method is illustrated in the SUN Solaris environment.

We proposed a design procedure for Korean Precast Slab Track system. Korean Precast Slab Track system cannot use the same design procedure to German slab track system because of different shapes and some problems. We identified the problems of German slab track design system that cannot simulate effects of loads. This proposed procedure is implemented for the commercial software of ABAQUS. Using this procedure, one can consider uncombined effects between slab panel and hydraulic sub base, effect of close sleepers.

e-insensitive support vector regression(e-SVR) is capable of providing more complete description of the linear and nonlinear relationships among random variables. In this paper we propose an iterative reweighted least squares(IRWLS) procedure to solve the quadratic problem of e-SVR with a modified loss function. Furthermore, we introduce the generalized approximate cross validation function to select the hyperparameters which affect the performance of e-SVR. Experimental results are then presented which illustrate the performance of the IRWLS procedure for e-SVR.

Between 1981 and 1987, five patients with an interruption of the aortic arch were operated upon. All had a ventricular septal defect and a patent ductus arteriosus as associated anomalies. A two-stage procedure was employed in these cases, the initial procedure being repair of the interrupted arch, ligation of the patent ductus arteriosus, banding of the main pulmonary artery and a lung biopsy which was followed, 5 to 49 months later, by the repair of the ventricular septal defect. Four patients completed the two-stage procedure with one postoperative mortality. The remaining patient is yet to complete the second stage procedure.

Moisture is one of the important design factors that affects to the changes of physical properties and air permeability in the composting matrix. This study examines the effects of moisture during the wetting and drying procedure on physical properties like bulk density, particle size, free air space and air permeability in the sawdust used as the bulking agent in composting process. During both procedures of wetting and drying of the water, with increasing moisture content, bulk density and particle size increased, but FAS decreased. In the range of near 40 to 60% moisture content on a wet basis, particle size and FAS in wetting procedure were larger and higher than those in drying procedure. During wetting procedure, pressure drop continuously decreased ranging from near 20 to 60% moisture content, despite of decreasing FAS as a consequence of increasing moisture, and then over the range of 60% moisture content, pressure drop rapidly increased to the saturated moisture condition while the pore space was filled with the water. On the other hand, during drying procedure, pressure drop decreased from the saturated condition to 40% moisture content. In the recommended range of 50 to 60% moisture content for composting operation, pressure drop in wetting procedure were lower than in drying procedure. For the enhancement of the air permeability in the composting matrix, the wetting procedure was proper than the drying procedure, and the optimum moisture content for the efficient composting operation was appeared to be near 60%.
