'위상적 평가'와 '수리학적 평가'를 통해 수요절점에서 필요한 수량을 필요한 압력으로 충분히 공급할 수 있는지의 여부를 정량화하고 이를 신뢰성의 산정을 위한 기준으로 사용하는 것은 대표적인 상수관망시스템의 신뢰성산정 방법이다. 하지만 '수리학적 평가'를 이용한 수요절점에서의 압력확보 여부를 신뢰성 산정에 사용한 기존의 연구들은 'Demand-Driven Analysis의 사용'과 '사용성의 미고려'라는 두 가지 측면에 있어서 문제가 있다. 또한 비정상상태인 상수관망시스템의 수리모의 적합한 Pressure-Driven Analysis를 이용한 연구들도 신뢰성 산정에 있어 가능공급량만을 고려하고 사용성을 고려하지 않아, Pressure-Driven Analysis의 장점이 효율적으로 사용되지 않은 단점이 있다. 본 연구에서는 기 개발 된 Pressure-Driven Analysis 모형인 HSPDA모형과, 거리척도 방법을 이용하여 수량과 수압을 동시에 고려하는 신뢰성 분석기법을 제안하였다. 제안된 기법을 상수관망에 적용하여 기존의 연구결과와 비교하였고 이를 바탕으로 수립 가능한 신뢰성 확보방안을 제시하였다.

The problem of system reliability is very important issue in the nuclear power plant, because the failure of its system brings about extravagant economic loss, environment destruction, and quality loss. This paper therefore proposes a normalized scoring model by the qualitative factors order to evaluate the robust reliability of nuclear power plants under uncertainty. Especially, the qualitative factors including risk, functional, human error, and quality function factors for the robust justification has been also introduced. Finally, the analytical reliability and safety assessment model developed in this paper can be used in the real nuclear power plant.

철도교량의 신뢰도 기반 한계상태설계법 도입 시 목표신뢰도지수 산정을 위하여 기존 철도교량의 신뢰도지수 산정이 선행되어야 한다. 대표적인 복선 철도교량 중 하나인 6주형 PSC-I형 거더교량에 대해 신뢰도지수를 산정하였다. 최외측 거더의 휨모멘트에 대한 신뢰도 해석을 수행하였다. 휨저항강도 및 고정하중효과는 도로교 한계상태설계법 도입 시 적용된 선행연구자들의 평균과 변동계수를 활용하였고, 열차의 활하중 효과는 여객/화물 혼용선 중 중량화차 통행이 빈번한 중앙선에서 현장계측 데이터를 활용하였다. 한계상태방정식에 대하여 개선된 일계이차 모멘트법(AFOSM)으로 신뢰도 분석을 수행하였으며, 하중효과와 저항효과의 각 요소가 신뢰도지수에 미치는 민감도를 분석하여 중요도를 검토하였다.

Background: The sagittal alignment of the spine and pelvis is not only closely related to the overall posture of the body but also to the evaluation and treatment of spine disease. In the last few years, the EOS imaging system, a new low-dose radiation X-ray device, became available for sagittal alignment assessment. However, there has been little research on the reliability of EOS. The purpose of this study was to evaluate the intrarater and interrater reliability of EOS for the sagittal alignment assessment of the spine and pelvis. Methods: Records of 46 patients were selected from the EOS recording system between November 2016 and April 2017. The exclusion criteria were congenital spinal anomaly and deformity, and previous history of spine and pelvis operation. Sagittal parameters of the spine and pelvis were measured by three examiners three times each using both manual and EOS methods. Means comparison t-test, Pearson bivariate correlation analysis, and reliability analysis by intraclass correlation coefficients (ICCs) for intrarater and interrater reliability were performed using R package "irr." Results: We found excellent intrarater and interrater reliability of EOS measurements. For intrarater reliability, the ICC ranged from 0.898 to 0.982. For interrater reliability, the ICC ranged from 0.794 to 0.837. We used a paired t-test to compare the values measured by manual and EOS methods: there was no statistically significant difference between the two methods. Correlation analysis also showed a statistically significant positive correlation. Conclusions: EOS showed excellent reliability for assessment of the sagittal alignment of the spine and pelvis.

Despite the importance of learning to do mathematical proofs, researchers have reported that not only secondary school students but also undergraduate students have difficulties in learning proofs. In this study, we introduced a new toll for learning proofs and explored the reliability and the validity of peer assessment on proofs. In the course of a university in Seoul, students were given weekly proof assignments prior to class. After solving the proofs, each student had to assess other students' proofs. The inter-rater reliabilities of weekly peer assessment was higher than .9 over 90 percent of the observed cases. To examine the validity of peer assessment, we check whether students' assessments were similar to expert assessment. Analysis showed that the equivalence has been quite high throughout the semester and the validity was low in the middle of the semester but rose by the end of the semester. Based on these results, we believe instructors can consider the application of peer assessment on proving tasks as a tool to help students learn.

The efficiency and accuracy of handwriting measurement could be improved by adopting digital image processing. This study developed a computer-based Korean Handwriting Assessment tool. Second graders participated in this study by performing writing tasks of consonants, vowels, words, and sentences. We extracted boundary parameters for each letter using digital image processing and calculated the variables of size, size coefficient of variation (CV), misalignment, inter-letter space, inter-word space, and ratio of inter-letter space to inter-word space. Children were also administered traditional handwriting and visuomotor tests. Digital variables from image processing were correlated with these previous tests. Using these correlations, we established a three-point scoring system that computed test scores for each variable. We analyzed inter-rater reliability between the computer rater and human rater and test-retest reliability between the first and second performances. The validity was examined by analyzing the relationship between the Korean Handwriting Assessment and previous handwriting and visuomotor tests. We suggested the Korean Handwriting Assessment to measure size, size consistency, misalignment, inter-letter space, inter-word space, and space ratio using digital image processing. This Korean Handwriting Assessment tool proved to have reliability and validity. It is expected to be useful for assessing children's handwriting.

Dynamic topology is one of the main influence factors on network performability. However, it was always ignored by the traditional network performability assessment methods when analyzing large-scale mobile ad hoc networks (MANETs) because of the state explosion problem. In this paper, we address this problem from the perspective of complex network. A two-layer hierarchical modeling approach is proposed for MANETs performability assessment, which can take both the dynamic topology and multi-state nodes into consideration. The lower level is described by Markov reward chains (MRC) to capture the multiple states of the nodes. The upper level is modeled as a small-world network to capture the characteristic path length based on different mobility and propagation models. The hierarchical model can promote the MRC of nodes into a state matrix of the whole network, which can avoid the state explosion in large-scale networks assessment from the perspective of complex network. Through the contrast experiments with OPNET simulation based on specific cases, the method proposed in this paper shows satisfactory performance on accuracy and efficiency.

According to the results of Probabilistic Safety Assessment(PSA) for a Nuclear Power Plant(NPP), an Emergency Power Supply(EPS) system has been considered as one of the most important safety system. Especially, the interests in the reliability of the EPS system have been increased after the severe accidents of Fukushima Daiichi. Firstly, we performed the risk assessment and the importance analysis of the EPS system based on the PSA models of the reference plant, which is the Korean standard NPP type. Considering a portable Diesel Generator(DG) system as the reliability reinforcement of the EPS system, we modified the PSA models and performed the risk impact assessment and the importance analysis. Although the reliability of the potable DG could be about 20% of the reliability of the alternative AC DG, we identified that Core Damage Frequency(CDF) was decreased by at least 4.6%. In addition, the risk impacts due to the unavailability of the EPS system on CDF were decreased.
