In determining properties of ductile cast iron, it is well known that nodularity plays a significant role. Therefore, the national and/or international standards for ductile cast iron such as KS, ISO, ASTM and JIS have specified some methods for evaluating it. However, most of standards have not recommended the methods using image analyzer which is known as an objective analyzing tool for evaluating microstructure. In this study, a reliable method for evaluating nodularity by image analyzing method was proposed, and the result was compared with that from the common counting method proposed in KS D 4302-1999. It was found that there was a reasonable relationship in nodularities measured by these two methods.

This study presents the detailed methods for university facilities mapping using GPS and totalstation. In the control survey by GPS network adjustment, the level of significance for the height value of fourth order triangulation stations was estimated about loom. The accuracy analysis of height determination by totalstation for the traverse points showed that the RMSE came out 9mm to the basis of direct leveling, so it indicated that trigonometric leveling by totalstation was correct comparatively. For GPS/RTK method, the result of accuracy analysis about traverse points showed that the RMSE came out 33㎜ in horizontal location to the basis of totalstation's outcome and 15㎜ in height value to the basis of direct leveling. In the construction survey, GPS/RTK surveying is quicker and more economical than totalstation surveying in the feasible areas of GPS surveying, but there were many impossible areas lot GPS/RTK surveying by the obstacles like a building.

In order to evaluate landslide susceptibility in Yanbian region, this study analyzed 7 factors related to landslide occurrence, such as soil, geology, land use, slope, slope aspect, fault and river by Analytic Hierarchy Process (AHP), and calculated the weights of these 7 hazard-induced factors, determined the internal weights and the relative weights between various factors. According to these weights, combining the Remote Sensing technology (RS) with Geographic Information System technology (GIS), the selected area was evaluated by using GIS raster data analysis function, then landslide susceptibility chart was mapped out. The comprehensive analysis of AHP and GIS showed that there has unstable area with the potential risk of sliding in the research area. The result of landslide susceptibility agrees well with the historical landslides, which proves the accuracy of adopted methods and hazard-induced factors.

This study was carried out the experimental and the analysis for process of carburizing and quenching, evaluated the reliability of mock-up. Carburizing of comer of rock gear was higher than body regardless of condition of eight processes, and the end of gear tooth was more highly distributed than root. Hardness of surface shows the maximum value and was decreased linear to depth direction. The result of analysis wasn't nearly the heat deformation. In mock-up, tooth flank increased 0.096%, thickness of tooth decreased 0.11% and body increased 0.11%. It had no trouble with assembly and operation like this. The mock-up of recliner for automobile was secured stability by four types of test.

The research is purposed to help obese children to recover their physical, spiritual inferiority complex and it give them to affirmative self formation by developing training-suit which has slender effect. In order to accomplish a research problem, this research examined the effect of wearer's outward appearance with the principle and element of design and the characteristics of obesity. In order to apply consumer's demand to developing goods, this research used 'House of quality' theory. The design ten suits(the half are made for boys) development is based on the result of 'House of quality', parents and obese children's interview, design element, slender effect. The design which is developed is evaluated by five specialists in order to prove it's quality though the 'Quad' analysis which is a subjective evaluation method.

U-Channel Bridge is effective bridge type, because its edge beam performs role of barrier and enables to reduce additional dead loads. Nevertheless, there is possibility of bridge collapse under impact load due to car crash. Also, edge beam must have ability to induce safe driving and prevent falling accidents. Therefore, this study carries out analysis of behavior of edge beam and slab and evaluation of structural stability under impact loads, based on Korean Highway Bridge Design Specifications and AASHTO LRFD Bridge Design Specification. According to analysis result, the maximum stress of edge beam and slab satisfies specification of allowable stress.

There are many uncertain parameters associated with vibration components. Their physical parameters, the machining quality of vibration components, and the applied load acting on them are all uncertain. As a result, the natural frequency and the fatigue limits are also uncertain variables. In this paper, we express these parameters of vibration components and the frequency zone of resonance through interval models; this way, the robust reliability of the vibration components is defined. The robust reliability model measures and assesses the reliability of vibration components. The robust reliability of a cantilever beam is evaluated as an example. The results show that this method is reasonable for robust reliability analysis of vibration components because it does not require a large amount of failure data, it avoids the evaluation of the probability density function, and the computation is simple.

The purpose of this is to suggest objective basic data for the use development and conservation management of the national park through the quantitative analysis of the visul quality included in the physical environment of the Sobaeksan National Park, for this. spatial images structure of physical elements have been analyzed by factor analysis algorithm and degree of visual quality have been measured mainly by questionnaries. Result of this thesis can be summarized as follows. Factors covering the spatial image of the Sobaeksan National Park landscape have been found to be the overall synthetic evaluation appeal, spatial, natural quality and dignity factors such as the overall the synthetic evaluation. spatial and appeal yield high factor scores. As for the factors determining the degree of visual quality of clear of valley, peculiarity of configuration natural of trail, harmony of suitable artificial planting and temple.

Purpose: The purpose of this study was to develop a balanced scorecard (BSC) for performance measurement of a Korean hospital nursing organization and to evaluate the validity and reliability of performance measurement indicators. Method: Two hundred fifty-nine nurses in a Korean hospital participated in a survey questionnaire that included 29-item performance evaluation indicators developed by investigators of this study based on the Kaplan and Norton's BSC (1992). Cronbach's alpha was used to test the reliability of the BSC. Exploratory and confirmatory factor analysis with a structure equation model (SEM) was applied to assess the construct validity of the BSC. Result: Cronbach's alpha of 29 items was .948. Factor analysis of the BSC showed 5 principal components (eigen value>1.0) which explained 62.7% of the total variance, and it included a new one, community service. The SEM analysis results showed that 5 components were significant for the hospital BSC tool. Conclusion: High degree of reliability and validity of this BSC suggests that it may be used for performance measurements of a Korean hospital nursing organization. Future studies may consider including a balanced number of nurse managers and staff nurses in the study. Further data analysis on the relationships among factors is recommended.

Nakdong River was recently dredged with multi-functional weirs construction. Therefore, the depth was deepened and the lag time also increased. As a result, stratification occurred in some sections with deep water depth, and it also caused the increase of algal bloom phenomenon. The purpose of this study is to evaluate reproducibility of stratification in the Nakdong River by applying the EFDC model, which is a three-dimensional hydraulic and water quality analysis model proving the reproducibility of stratification phenomena in reservoirs and estuaries. In order to reproduce the Nakdong river water temperature and DO stratification, EFDC model was constructed in the downstream part of the Nakdong river and sensitivity analysis was performed on key parameters sensitive to stratification. Sensitivity analysis was used to reproduce stratification by selecting optimal parameters. The results of this study can be used as basic data for the analysis of various destratification scenarios.
