어떤 고장이 시스팀의 기능을 완전히 마비시키는 것이 아니라 그 성능이 저하된 상태에서 운용할 수 있는 degradable system에서는 고전적인 신뢰도 모형을 적용하기가 어려우며, 여기서 성능과 신뢰도는 매우 밀접한 관련이 있다. 본고에서는 성능신뢰도(Performance reliability)에 대한 개념 및 모형화 방법에 대해 살펴보고 실제로 TDX-1의스위치 네트워크인 SWCD의 성능을 해석하여 성능신뢰도를 구하였다. SWCD의 성능척도인 통화성공률에 영향을 미치는 요인으로는 스위치 네트워크 내에서의 blocking, T-SW 및 S-SW의 고장, 그리고 T-SW 및 S-SW의 고장으로 인해 DLC 와 TLC의 가용한 서비스 채널이 감소함으로써 발생하는 DLC 및 TLC에서의 blocking등을 들 수 있는데 이 요인들을 고려하여 SWCD의 성능을 해석하였으며, SWCD에 요구되는 표준성능(Normalized performance) 이 0.99라 할 때 single unit라고 가정한 경우 SWCD의 성능 신뢰도는 MTUO(Mean Time to Unreliable Operation)가 3076.7시간이었다. 또한 성능을 해석하는 과정에서 디지틀 스위치 네트워크인 SWC만의 최대 발신 통화처리 용량을 구한 결과, 스위치 네트워크 내에서의 blocking 확률에 대한 최대 허용치를 $10^-3$으로 하였을 때 약 1,700Erlang이었다.

To avoid drought stress under rainfed upland conditions, it is important for rice to efficiently utilize water at shallow soil layers supplied by rainfall, and access to water retained in deer soil layers. The root developmental characteristics of rice, which play important role in the adaptability to drought conditions, vary depending on the variety. Moreover, water availability for plant differs depending on the soil types that have different physical properties such as water holding capacity, permeability, capillary force, penetration resistance, etc. In this study, we evaluated growth and yield responses of rice varieties to various soil water deficit conditions under three different soil types. The experiment was conducted in a plastic greenhouse at the Kenya Agricultural and Livestock Research Organization-Mwea from October 2016 to January 2017. Two upland varieties (NERICA 1 and 4) and one lowland variety (Komboka) were grown in handmade PVC pots (15.2 cm diameter and 85.0 cm height) filled with three different types of soil collected from major rice-growing areas of the country, namely black cotton (BC), red clay (RC), and sandy clay (SC). Three watering methods, 1) supplying water only from the soil surface (W1), 2) supplying water only from the bottom of the pots (W2), and 3) supplying water both from the soil surface and the bottom of pots (W3), were imposed from 40 days after sowing to maturity. Soil water content (SWC) at 20, 40, and 60 cm depths was measured regularly. At the harvesting stage, aboveground and root samples were collected to determine total dry weight (TDW), grain yield, and root length at 0-20, 20-40, 40-60, and 60-80 cm soil layers. Irrespective of the watering methods, the greatest root development was obtained in RC, while that in BC was less than other two soils. In BC, the degree of yield reduction under W1 was less than that in RC and SC, which could be attributed to the higher water holding capacity of BC. In RC, the growth and yield reduction observed in all varieties under W1 was attributed to the severe drought stress. On the other hand, under W2, SWC at the shallow soil depth in RC was maintained because of its higher capillary force compared with BC and SC. As the result, growths and yields in RC were not suppressed under W2. In SC, deep root development was not promoted by W2 irrespective of the varieties, which resulted in significant yield losses. Under W1, the rice growth and yield in SC was decreased although shallow root development was enhanced, and the stomatal conductance was maintained higher than RC. It was suspected that W1 caused nutrients leaching in SC because of its higher permeability. Under rainfed conditions, growth and yield of rice can be strongly affected by soil types because dynamics of soil water conditions change according to soil physical properties.

We suggest a process for the basic software configurations and application development in the mode management design of AUTOSAR-based ECU. Mode management is an essential task and AUTOSAR provides the mode management components for the runtime state handling of an ECU, such as BswM, application mode manager and RTE. BswM is used to meet the custom's requirements for ECU state handling. The behavior of BswM is configured with a set of rules in the form of "if-else" statements, so it is a complicated job and a potential source of errors as the number of rules increases. These difficulties can be overcome using the Model-Based Development approach, which is widely used in the AUTOSAR SW development. An efficient process is proposed to apply the MBD approach to the BswM configuration. An application mode development process is also proposed to improve the mode management design by combining the MBD process. Development tools are developed to adapt these proposed processes to the traditional ones. Simulation and experimental results are provided to prove the feasibility of the proposed approach.

Automotive systems have tended to be equipped with many electronic contents to satisfy safety, comport, convenience, and entertainment services over the past years. As a result, the amount of vehicle embedded software in electrical/electronic(E/E) systems is steadily increasing to manage these requirements. This leads to the traditional, document-based software development in the vehicle embedded systems being increasingly displaced by a model-based development in order to reduce software development time and cost. Due to the application of model-based development, a great evolution is being realized in the aspect of efficiency, but the development is being made without sufficient testing. So, erroneous automotive embedded software may cause serious problems such as car accidents which relate to human safety. Therefore, efficient methods for model-based test and validation are needed to improve software reliability in the stage of embedded software development. This paper presents the model-based development and test method for AUTOSAR embedded software to improve its reliability and safety, and it is demonstrated based on the case study.

In this study, shear strength behavior of fine-grained soils was investigated under unsaturated conditions. The samples in the unsaturated state were subjected to a net normal stress (σ-u_a) of 40 kPa and different matric suctions (u_a-u_w) of 50, 100 and 150 kPa. The matric suction values applied in the triaxial tests were selected according to the bubbling pressures determined from the SWC curves. The study was carried out on prepared re-constituted cylindrical samples by uniaxial consolidation of soil slurries. First, consolidated drained (CD) triaxial compression tests were performed on the saturated samples and the cohesion and angle of internal friction were determined. After that, drained triaxial compression tests under matric suctions were performed on the unsaturated samples. In order to obtain unsaturated test results, cohesion and internal friction angle values of saturated samples were used. The nonlinear surface representing the shear strength surface was approximated consisting of two planes (double planar surface). The reason for the nonlinear behavior of some soils is that the amount of sand content contained in it is relatively high and the bubbling pressure/permanent water content value is relatively low.

Accidents involving wheelchair accessible vehicles have been frequently occurring since the introduction of these vehicles in the Korean market. However, detailed regulations, which are required to ensure the safety of the wheel-chair occupants, are unavailable. In this study, both domestic and international vehicle safety regulations are analyzed in order to select the regulations that are similar to the transportation environment of Korea. Sled tests with an actual wheel-chair accessible vehicle were carried out based on the analyzed regulation requirements, as well as the values of the HIC, belt loads, dummy movements, and wheelchair movements. The test results showed that the movements of the dummy and the wheelchair did not meet the criteria of the regulation due to the improper positioning of the restraint systems.

The present study dealt with the isolation, identification and enzyme characterization of potential luminous bacteria from water, sediment, squid, and cuttle fish samples of the Karaikal coast, Bay of Bengal, India during the study period September 2007 - August 2008. Bioluminescent strains were screened in SWC agar and identified using biochemical tests. As Shewanella henadai was found to be the most common and abundant species with maximum light emission [69,702,240 photons per second (pps)], the optimum ranges of various physicochemical parameters that enhance the luciferase activity in Shewanella hanedai were worked out. The maximum luciferase activity was observed at the temperature of $25^{\circ}C$ (69,674,387 pps), pH of 8.0 (70,523,671 pps), salinity of 20 ppt (71,674,387 pps), incubation period of 16 h (69,895,714 pps), 4% peptone (70,895,152 pps) as nitrogen source, 0.9% glycerol (71,625,196 pps), and the ionic supplements of 0.3% $CaCO_3$ (73,991,591 pps), 0.3% $K_2HPO_4$ (73,919,915 pps), and 0.2% $MgSO_4$ (72,161,155 pps). Shewanella hanedai was cultured at optimum ranges for luciferase enzyme characterization. From the centrifuged supernatant, the proteins were precipitated with 60% ammonium sulfate, dialyzed, and purified using anion-exchange chromatography, and then luciferase was eluted with 500 mM phosphate of pH 7.0. The purified luciferase enzyme was subjected to SDS-PAGE and the molecular mass was determined as 78 kDa.

The objectives of this study are to analyze the quantitative ecological principal components of Korean Peninsula using the multivariate spatial environmental datasets and to compare the ecological difference between South and North Korea. Ecological maps with GIS(Geographical Information System) are constructed by PCA(Principal Component Analysis) based on seventeen raster(cell based) variables at 1km resolution. Ecological differences between South and North Korea are extracted by Factor Analysis using ecosystem maps masked from Korean ones. Spatial data include SRTM(Shuttle Radar Topography Mission), Temperature, Precipitation, SWC(Soil Water Content), fPAR(Fraction of Photosynthetically Active Radiation) representing for a productivity, and SR(Solar Radiation), which all cover Korean peninsula. When it performed PCA, the first three scores were assigned to red, green, and blue color. This color triplet indicates the relative mixture of the seventeen environmental conditions inside each ecological region. The first red one represents for 'physiographic conditions' worked by high elevation and solar radiation and low temperature. The second green one stands for 'seasonality' caused by seasonal variations of temperature, precipitation, and productivity. The third blue one means 'wetness condition' worked by high value such as precipitation and soil water contents. FA extraction shows that South Korea has relatively warm and humid ecosystem affected by high temperature, precipitation, and soil water contents whereas North Korea has relatively cold and dry ecosystem due to the high elevation, low temperature and precipitation. Results would be useful at environmental planning on inaccessible land of North Korea.

공구강 등 산업용 재료로 널리 사용되는 카바이드 계 재료는 입자 크기 및 분포에 따라 기계적 성질이 변화하므로, 이를 제어하고 조절하는 기술에 관하여 많은 연구가 진행되어 왔다. 본 연구에서는 TiCN-WC-Co 복합초경계 에서 소결 공정 및 조성변화에 따른 입자 모양을 관찰하고 이에 따른 업자 성장 거동을 고찰하였다. 일반적으로 입자 조대화 양상과 고상 입자의 모양과는 밀접한 관계가 있다. 각진 입자의 경우에 는 계면이 원자적으로 singular 하여 원자의 홉착이 어렵기 때문에 임계값 이상의 성장 구동력을 받 는 몇몇 입자만 성장하는 비정상 입자 성장이 일어날 수 있다. 반면에 계면이 rough한 퉁큰 엽자의 경우에는 원자 홉착에 필요한 구동력이 존재하지 않아 성장 구동력을 받는 모든 입자들이 성장하기 때문에 정상 입자 성장을 하게 된다. 이와 같이 입자 모양에 따른 입자 성장 거동은 전체 미세구조를 결정하게 되며, 이에 따른 물리 화학적 물성을 변화시킨다. 이러한 입자 성장 원리를 적용하 면 복합초경계 (TiCN-WC-Co)에서도 입자성장이 억제되고 치밀한 소결체를 제조할 수 있을 것이다. 본 실험에서는 평균입도가 각각 0.1, 1.33, 2$\mu\textrm{m}$인 TiCN, WC, Co 분말을 사용하여 $((I00_{-x)}TiCN+_xWC)-30Co$ (wt%) 조성에서 TiCN/WC 비를 변화시키면서 업자 모양과 입자성장 거동을 관찰하였다. 청량된 분말은 WC 초경 볼로 밀렁하고, 건조한 후, 100 mesh 체로 조립화 하였다. 이 분말을 100 MPa의 압력으로 냉간정수압성형 하고 $10^{-2}$ torr의 진공분위기의 graphite f furnace에서 carbon black으로 packing 하여 액상형성 온도 이상에서 소결하였다. 소결된 시편은 경면 연마하여 주사전자현미경으로 미세 조직을 관찰하였다. TiCN-30Co 조성 시편은 corner-round 모양의 입자 모양으로 소결 시간 증가에 따라 빠른 입자 성장을 나타내었다 .(7STiCN+2SWC)-30Co 조성 시변의 경우 일반적으로 보고된 바와 같이 core/shell 구조를 나타내었으며, core는 TiC-rich 상이었고, shell은 (Ti,W)(C,N) 복합 탄화물 상이었다. WC 함량이 중가함에 따라 입자의 corner-round 영역이 증가하였으며 (SOTiCN-SOWC)-30Co 조성 근처에서는 거의 둥근 형태의 입자 모양을 나타내었다. 또한 TiCN - 30Co 조성 시편에 비하여 WC가 첨가된 시펀들은 작은 평균입자크기를 나타내었다. 본 연구의 결과는 shell 영역 조성 변화는 계면에너지 이방성과 기지상 내의 펑형 입자 모양을 변화시키고 나아가 입자 성장 속도 에도 영향을 미친다는 것을 보여준다.
