6 sigma is a management innovation strategy which improves most of all managerial processes including transactional and project based operations such as marketing, purchasing, accounting, and construction. Even though 6 sigma is trying to solve problems from the customer's viewpoint in the scientific manner, project leader feels some difficulties in implementation because of several reasons. Especially the difficulties are prevalent in construction site. This paper investigates the cause of the difficulties through questionnaires, analyzes the investigation results, and verifies the critical success factors of 6 sigma implementation. Factor analysis has been usually employed in reducing quantity of data and summarizing information chaos. In this study, several variables from questionnaires are grouped into just only four factors by the process of factor analysis. The critical success factors are extracted as project management system, implementation mechanism, site condition, and project ownership. Some ideas for each individual success factor are suggested, which are expected to be useful in successful implementation of 6 Sigma in construction site.

In this study, we compared light-absorption properties of aerosols observed in East and South Asia from black carbon (BC) mass concentration, aerosol scattering (${\sigma}_s$) and absorption (${\sigma}_a$) coefficients measurements at four sites: Korea Climate Observatory-Gosan (KCO-G), Korea Climate Observatory-Anmyeon (KCO-A), Maldives Climate Observatory-Hanimaadhoo (MCO-H) and Nepal Climate Observatory-Pyramid (NCO-P). No significant seasonal variations of BC mass concentration, ${\sigma}_s$ and ${\sigma}_a$, despite of wet removal of aerosols by precipitation in summer, were observed in East Asia, whereas dramatic changes of light-absorbing aerosol properties were observed in South Asia between dry and wet monsoon periods. Although BC mass concentration in East Asia is generally higher than that observed in South Asia, BC mass concentration at MCO-H during winter dry monsoon is similar to that of East Asia. The observed solar absorption efficiency (${\alpha}$) at 550 nm, where ${\alpha}={\sigma}_a/({\sigma}_s+{\sigma}_a)$, at KCO-G and KCO-A is higher than that in MCO-H due to large portions of BC emission from fossil fuel combustion. Interestingly, ${\alpha}$ at NCO-P is 0.14, which is two times great than that in MCO-H and is about 40% higher than that in East Asia, though BC mass concentration at NCO-P is the lowest among four sites. Consistently, the highest elemental carbon to sulphate ratio is found at NCO-P.

The polariscope to measure :he stress in lens was made up quarter-wave plate polarizer and we analyzed two components of light's wave $E_1$ and $E_2$ following the steps. It is clear that the principal-stress difference ${\sigma}_1-{\sigma}_2$ can be determined in 2-D model if fringe order N is measured each point in sample moreover. the optical axes of sample coincide with the principal-stress directions. The birefringence acted to a light wave and a phase retardation were in proportioned to the principal-stressed difference (${\sigma}_1-{\sigma}_2$) and the intensity of final light wave was proportioned to $sin^2({\Delta}/2)$, when ${\Delta}/2=n^{\pi}$ (n=0, 1, 2, ...) and the extinction occurs. As a experimental result, the extinction band shifted owing to a magnitude of lens' external stress.

In this paper, the six sigma scheme is employed together with the rigid-viscoplastic finite element method to obtain the optimal metal flow lines in hot press forging. In general, the six sigma process is consisted of following five steps : define, measure, analyze, improve and control. Each step Is investigated in detail to meet customer's requirements through improvement of product quality. A forging simulator, AFDEX-2D, is used for analysis of the metal flow lines of a multi-stage hot forging process under various conditions of major factors, determined at each step of the six sigma process. The analyzed results are examined in order to reveal the effects of major factors on the metal flow lines and the formed shapes. The effects are used to find an optimal process and the optimal process with die is devised and tested. The comparison between required metal flow lines and experiments shows that the approach is effective for optimal process in hot forging design considering metal flow lines.

In this paper we give several necessary and sufficient conditions for an operator on the Hilbert space H to obey Browder's theorem. And it is shown that if S has totally finite ascent and $T{\prec}S$ then $f(T)$ obeys Browder's theorem for every $f{\in}H({\sigma}(T))$, where $H({\sigma}(T))$ denotes the set of all analytic functions on an open neighborhood of ${\sigma}(T)$. Furthermore, it is shown that if $T{\in}B(H)$ is a compact operator or a Riesz Operator then T obeys Browder's theorem and Weyl's theorem holds if and only if Browder's holds.

In this study, measured annual year and seasonal concentrations of VOCs by Active type and Passive type using the measurement and analysis method in the exhibition hall and outdoor. It was compared with the correlation between the methods according the comparison of methods to measured concentrations. As a results, the annual average concentrations of TVOC in exhibition room($906.5{\mu}g/m^3$) was greater than for most of the study period, more than 1.8 times the standard in the Ministry of Environment. ${\Sigma}VOCs$ concentration of exhibition room by Active type was higher than Passive type. Some VOCs was decreased with the lapse of time a temporary increase tendencies was. The annual average I/O ratio of TVOC was 9.0, ${\Sigma}VOCs$ was confirmed to occur in a large amount inside the exhibition hall ${\Sigma}VOCs$ was studied to 34.0. Correlation coefficient of ${\Sigma}VOCs$ was 0.367. Toluene was 0.567 that the survey was the largest analysis to the relationship between the two methods.

In multibit Sigma-Delta Modulator, one of the DEM(Dynamic Element Matching) techniques which is DWA(Data Weighted Averaging) is widely used to get rid of non-linearity caused by mismatching of capacitor that is unit element of feedback DAC. In this paper, by adjusting clock timing used in existing DWA architecture, 2n Register block used for output was replaced with 2n S-R latch block. As a result of this, MOS Tr. can be reduced and extra clock can also be removed. Moreover, two n-bit Register block used to delay n-bit data code is decreased to one n-bit Register. After designing the 3rd 3-bit SC(Switched Capacitor) Sigma-Delta Modulator by using the proposed DWA architecture, 0.1% of mismatching into unit element in input frequency 20 kHz and sampling frequency 2.56 MHz. As a consequence of the simulation, It was able to get the same resolution as the existing architecture and was able to reduce the number of MOS Tr. by 222.

In ARQ based error control, imperfect error detection leaves error remains on a packet. Aiming for a reduction of error remains in multicopy transmission ARQ system, we propose a rule of requesting a retransmission and deciding a correct copy, (identified as $(m, \;{\sigma})$rule). While the probability of error remains is reduced by the employment of the $(m, \;{\sigma})$ rule at multicopy transmission ARQ, delay and throughput performance may be degraded in comparison with those of conventional single copy transmission ARQ. Thus, we develop an analytical method to evaluate the performance trade-off in multicopy transmission ARQ following the $(m, \;{\sigma})$ rule. From the numerical results obtained by the analytical method, we investigate the effect of channel characteristics on the performance of error remains, packet loss, throughput, and packet delay, and confirm that the adaptability of the $(m, \;{\sigma})$ rule to conform to various QoS requirements with ease.

The polariscope to measure the microscopic stress in CR lens consists of light source polarizer, model, polarizer, CCD, computer, chrome conversion orderly and the principal-stressed difference, (${\sigma}_1-{\sigma}_2$) and the fringe order n were measured by analyzing two components of light wave $E_1$ and $E_2$ following each polarizer's steps. The two-dimensional model could be determined from the fact that the optical axes of sample concide with the principal-stress directions. The bi-refringence acted to a light wave and the phase retardation were in proportion to the principal-stressed difference(${\sigma}_1-{\sigma}_2$) and the intensity of final light wave was proportioned to $sin2({\Delta}/2)$ and when ${\Delta}/2=n{\pi}$ (n=0, 1, 2, ${\ldots}$) the extinction occurs. Photoelastic's image by microscopic stress could analyzed using chrome conversion, and the image showed clearly.

In geological media with anisotropic properties, the strength anisotropy in intact rock is the most important issue in engineering aspects. Point-ioad(P/L) strength test designed to estimate the uniaxial compressive strength(${\sigma}_c$) can be used to evaluate the anisotropic strength characteristics of rocks. The relationship between ${\sigma}_c$ and P/L strength indices(I$_s$), obtained from the banded gneisses distributed in the Cheongyang area, varies depend mainly on the dip angle($\beta$) of foliation. The axial P/L strength indicies(I$_{sa}$) decreases with the increment of $\beta$, whereas diametral P/L strength indices(I$_{sa}$) increase with it. However, the ${\sigma}_c$ decreases with the increments of $\beta$ below about 40$^{\circ}$, but it increases with the increments of $\beta$ over about 40$^{\circ}$ in general. The correlation between ${\sigma}_c$ and I$_s$ suggests that ${\sigma}_c$ is related to the Isa withing low angle($\beta$<40$^{\circ}$) and the I$_{sd}$ within high angle ($\beta$>40$^{\circ}$), respectively. The ratios of I$_s$ to ${\sigma}_c$ are obtained as 11 to 14 in the the gneisses in the study area. The ratio of 24, which is generally adopted value, cannot always be truthworth to the gneisses in the study area. The ratio for the dykes, however, show a good correlation as 21 to 24.5 and, the value of 24 can be used for a homogeneous and isotropic materials such as dykes.
