The aim of this research is to delineate how daily living activities, depression, self-respect, and social activity participation affects the life satisfaction of the rural elderly. The subjects of the research were elderly over-65-year-olds living in Yeoju, Gyeonggido and conducted from November 15 to November 30, 2009. The sampling method was convenience sampling among non-probability sampling, a total of 339 were used as analysis data. The collected data were then put through-frequency analysis, correlation analysis, simple regression analysis, analysis of variance, Kruskal-Wallis, and feasibility verification through SPSS SAS 9.1.3 program. As a result of hypothesis verification, daily living activities have a positive influence over life satisfaction. And the higher the elderly's self-respect, the greater their life satisfaction, and it was verified that depending on social activity participation, there is a difference in their life satisfaction. The purpose of this study is to verify and carry out action plan and ital.

This paper presents a new method of significantly improving conventional Bayesian statistical text classifier by incorporating accelerated EM(Expectation Maximization) algorithm. EM algorithm experiences a slow convergence and performance degrade in its iterative process, especially when real online-textual documents do not follow EM's assumptions. In this study, we propose a new accelerated EM algorithm with uncertainty-based selective sampling, which is simple yet has a fast convergence speed and allow to estimate a more accurate classification model on Naive Bayesian text classifier. Experiments using the popular Reuters-21578 document collection showed that the proposed algorithm effectively improves classification accuracy.

To improve the performance of a launch vehicle, kerosene, a launch vehicle fuel, undergoes a densification process. Liquid nitrogen injection cooling is an effective densification method which has a simple system and is inexpensive. During the cooling process, however, nitrogen may dissolve in the kerosene, possibly resulting in changes to fuel properties. Therefore, it is essential to measure and eliminate the amount of dissolved nitrogen in the kerosene. In this study, the vacuum extraction principle is introduced to measure the content of dissolved nitrogen in the kerosene. In addition, the experimental results, which used a designed/manufactured nitrogen sampling device, are described. From the results, the validity of the nitrogen sampling device and the dissolved nitrogen measurement/elimination methods was demonstrated.

A fast and simple sampling and sample preparation device, (NTD) has been developed and applied to sample and analyze volatile components from ground coffee beans. Coffee fragrances and other volatile organic compounds (VOCs) were sampled by the NTD and then analyzed by gas chromatograph-mass spectrometry (GC/MS). Divinylbenzene (DVB) particles (80/100 mesh size) were the sorbent bed of the NTD. More than 150 volatile components were first identified based on the database of the mass library and then finally 30 fragrances including caffeine were further confirmed by comparing experimental retention indices (i.e. Kovat index) with literature retention indices. Total sampling time was 10 minutes and no extra solvent extraction and/or reconstitution step need. Straight n-alkanes (C6-C20) were used as retention index probes for the calculation of experimental retention indices. In addition, this report suggests that an empty needle can be an alternative platform for analyzing polymers by pyrolysis-GC/MS.

In switched reluctance motor(SRM) drive, it is necessary to synchronize the stator phase excitation with the rotor position. Therefore the rotor position information is an essential. Usually optical encoders or resolvers are used to provide the rotor position information. These sensors are expensive and are not suitable for high speed operation. In general, the accuracy of the switching angles is dependent upon the resolution of the encoder and the sampling period of the microprocessor. But the region of high speed, switching angles are fluctuated back and forth from the preset values, witch are cause by the sampling period of the microprocessor. Therefore, the low cost linear encoder suitable for the practical and stable SRM drive is proposed and the control algorithm to provide the switching signals using the simple digital logic circuit is also presented in this paper It is verified from the experiments that the proposed encoder and logic controller can be a powerful candidate for the practical low cost SRM drive.

This paper presents a simple switching method to generate a PWM pattern mostly relevant to signle-phase three-level PWM rectifier. The adopted PWM switching pattern is performed in a manner similar to the space vector PWM method, which is popularly used in the three-phase rectifier and inverter. A set of possible voltages has been selected so that an equation with a time integral considered within a sampling period should be satisfied every sampling time. The simulation result shows that the proposed control scheme is good in some performance criteria such as unity power factor, low harmonic distortion of input current, dynamic response and voltage balancing of two series-connected DC capacitors.

This research investigates the statistical efficiency of variable sampling size & sampling interval(VSSI) $\bar{X}$ charts under two assignable causes. Algorithms for calculating the average run length(ARL) and average time to signal(ATS) of the VSSI $\bar{X}$ chart are proposed by employing Markov chain method. States of the process are defined according to the process characteristics after the occurrence of an assignable cause. Transition probabilities are carefully derived from the state definition. Statistical properties of the proposed chart are also investigated. A simple procedure for designing the proposed chart is presented based on the properties. Extensive sensitivity analyses show that the VSSI $\bar{X}$ chart is superior to the VSS or VSI $\bar{X}$ chart as well as to the Shewhart $\bar{X}$ chart in statistical sense, even tinder two assignable causes.

In this paper, an advanced torque control scheme of SRM using DITC(Direct Instantaneous Torque Control) and PWM(pulse width modulation) is presented. Different from conventional DITC method, proposed method uses one or two switching modes at every sampling time, instead of only one switching mode. The duty ratio of the phase switch is regulated according to the torque error and simple control rules of DITC. Moreover the sampling time of control can be extended, which allows implementation on low cost microcontrollers. The proposed control method is verified by the simulations and experimental results.

In this paper, we design sampling inspections and service capacities simultaneously for multi-products. Particularly, we extend Kim(2003) by introducing the fixed cost of providing services. We show that, due to the fixed cost considered, the cost function of a product is no longer linear or convex in terms of the level of service provision, and the total inspection is prefered to the small level of service capacity which results in high burden of the fixed cost. And we develop a simple framework to deal with this joint design problem for a product. Also we consider the problem of allocating the given number of the total service capacities among products. A dynamic programming algorithm is developed to determine the optimal allocation which minimizes the overall total cost of the system and the optimal allocation can be obtained with the considerably smaller computations than the total number of possible allocations. The results can be used to support planning decisions and to aid the joint design of inspections and service capacities for products.
