In this thesis, a new test statistic is proposed for testing exponentiality against New Better than Used (NBU) alternatives. Our test statistic, which is based on a quadratic function of the order statistics from the sample, is readily applied in the case of small sample. Also, Our test statistic is more simple than the test statistic of Hollander and Proschan(1972).

This article is concerned with procedures for detecting one or more outliers or influential observations in a linear regression model. A test procedure, based on recursive residuals is proposed and developed The power of the test procedure to identify one or more outliers is investigated through simulation, and its relevance to the number and configuration of the outlier.

The purpose of this study is to investigate diet quality and changes in nutrient and food intake with increase in age. Subjects were 69 patients(28 males, 41 females) living in Jeon-ju city, over middle-aged, and they were the same patients studied 4-7 years ago in a previous study. Dietary survey with one day 24-hour recall method was used. Energy, calcium, vitamin A and vitamin B$_2$intakes were lower than the RDA and vitamin C was in excessive status in pre-test and post-test. In food groups examrned, the consumption of potatoes, beans, vegetables, seaweeds, beverages, seasonings, oils, fish & shells and milks was increased amount than 4-7 years before but the consumption of cereals(p<0.01), sugars, seeds, fruits, processed food, meats and eggs was decreased. Diet quality was assessed by %RDA, nutrient adequacy ratio(NAR), mean adequacy ratio(MAR), dietary diversity score(DDS), meal balance and food group pattern. In %RDA, those proportion of appropriate intake in post-test in were higher than those in pre-test. For most nutrient except vitamin A, the levels of NAR in post-test were higher than in pretest. The MAR, an index of overall dietary quality, was 0.77 for pre-test and 0.83 for post-test(p<0.05). When we counted the major food groups consumed(KDDS), 62.3% of subjects had a KDDS of 3 in pre-test and 42.0% of subjects had a KDDS of 4 in post-test. Based on these results, in terms of variety and balance, total diet quality was improved with advancing of age.

The objective of this study is improve the technology by various testing devices for measuring degree of compaction. The methods for quality control for compaction are very various. But, normally the specifications have provided PBT(Plate Bearing Test) method when inspector tested quality control. In spite of the PBT has a few weak points to reduce process and cost. In order to improve quality control method, analyzed in-situ test results between PBT and other devices.(LWDT and Geogauge).

Basic lot tests via textile and visual examinations are conducted on FA carried into in-service RMCs. The system of evaluating quality by taking samples from each lot and examining them, or evaluating quality based on the score reports submitted by the deliverer during in-service training have on some instances been called into doubt as to their reliability in evaluating the quality of FA. Therefore this study sought to measure the density value of FA that is actually delivered to RMC companies according to the Hydrometer method and analyze its correlation to its test scores, to in turn analyze the reliability of the test reports and the characteristics of the quality of FA. The results led to the conclusion that the fineness and density marked on the score reports were problematic, and therefore accurate experiments and adjustment of significant digits on the test report are necessary.

Purpose: The purpose of this study was to test the effects of aroma inhalation on subjective quality of sleep, state anxiety, and depression of mothers who underwent a Cesarean section delivery. Methods: This study was designed as a nonequivalent control group quasi-experimental study based upon data acquired through a pre-post test. The experimental group (n=33) was given general obstetric nursing care plus dry inhalation method using lavender essential oil, in which each mother put one drop on a tissue and breathe near it for 5 minutes before going to bed. Then they put 1~2 drops on their pillow for 6 nights. The control group (n=34) was only given general obstetric nursing care. Data were collected using a questionnaire for measures of subjective quality of sleep, state anxiety, and depression by self-report. ${\chi}^2$-test, Fisher's exact test, t-test, and ANCOVA with SPSS/Win12.0 were used to analyze the data. Results: There were significant differences in subjective quality of sleep (p<.001), state anxiety (p=.049) and depression (p=.029). Conclusion: The results suggest that aroma inhalation method can be an effective nursing intervention to improve quality of sleep and decrease anxiety and depression in postpartum mothers suffering from stress related to a Cesarean section delivery.

The purpose of this study was to identify the relationship among physical function, quality of sleep and quality of life for the Elderly in a Community. Method :The survey was carried out for 253 elderly over 65 years old who live in K Metropolitan City. Descriptive statistics, t-test, ANOVA, Pearson's correlation, Scheffe test were applied using SPSS WIN 14.0 program. Results :The major findings of this study were as follows. 1) The level of physical function had a significant difference depending on gender, age, residence type and, monthly income. The quality of life had a significant difference depending on family member and monthly income. 2) Activity of daily living(r=.303, p=.000) and quality of sleep(r=-.294, p=.002) were significantly related to quality of life. Conclusion : Based on these results, this study suggests that in order to improve the quality of life of the Elderly in a Community, a nursing program in consideration of the characteristic of physical function and quality of sleep, is required.

Product reliability is important to quality and competitiveness. Much management and engineering efforts go into evaluating reliability, assessing new designs and changes of manufacturing processes, identifying cause of failure. Major methods are based on environmental test. In this study, we analysis the environmental test data of the electrical component, unit, set. These data were gathered for 7 years.

The danger of self-ignition of single base propellants will increase with time. Therefore, a good prediction of the safe storage time is very important. In order to determine the remaining shelf-life of the propellants, the content of stabilizer is determined. The propellants stored under normal storage conditions about 10 to 18 years were investigated and accelerated aging test was carried out by storing propellant sample at higher temperature. Finally, we analyzed the results by various methods in order to show the best way to predict the realistic shelf-life. The safe storage life of the propellants will be 24 years, at least 15 years. In case of applying Arrhenius's law, using the reaction rate constant at 28$^{\circ}C$ to 30$^{\circ}C$ to predict the shelf-life by accelerated aging test is reasonable for a good prediction.

Korean shotcrete technology has been developed by constructing underground space, roads and rails for expanding SOC project. To late, importance of shotcrete is raised due to the efforts for semi-permanent use of underground structure and a long term safety. Shotcrete method and quality criterion have been developed continuously in abroad, but there are no standard and quality criterion of shotcrete in Korea. International quality criterion has been used to domestic conditions, so various problems are occurred in construction field, material, mixture, equipment, and so on. In this study, to establish standard of domestic shotcrete, both internal and external quality criteria were investigate and opinion poll was performed in the construction field. Field test was performed to propose a quality improvement on the shotcrete material.
