There are many different factors used in calculating control limits of control chart for variable data. Specially these factors are divided into two groups such as "no given standard" and "given standard"(namely, for analysis and management), but many kind of factors give rise to confusion. Therefore, It is necessary to manifest relationships among factors for easy application regardless of subgroup size. Many SQC textbooks show us plainly these factors, but do not have enough for adequate explanation of relationships among factors. Besides, notation of these factors of SQC textbook isn't coincide with another one, so necessity to the coincidence for the notation of the factors is highlighted during my work recently. In this study, the close examination about relationships among various factors (A-A3, B3-B6, D1-D4, C4, d2, d3 etc) was carried out. Spread sheet results are presented for getting factors according to subgroup size, by grouping as the case of "no given standard" and "given standard". How are these factors to be applied in statistical package (ex, Minitab) have been analyzed using a series of sample data. analyzed using a series of sample data.

Purpose PET-CT imaging require an appropriate quality assurance system to achieve high efficiency and reliability. Quality control is essential for improving the quality of care and patient safety. Currently, there are performance evaluation methods of UN2-1994 and UN2-2001 proposed by NEMA and IEC for PET-CT image evaluation. In this study, we compare phantom images with the same experiments before and after PET-CT 3D normalization and well counter correction and evaluate the usefulness of quality control. Materials and methods Discovery 690 (General Electric Healthcare, USA) PET-CT equiptment was used to perform 3D normalization and well counter correction as recommended by GE Healthcare. Based on the recovery coefficients for the six spheres of the NEMA IEC Body Phantom recommended by the EARL. 20kBq/㎖ of ¹⁸F was injected into the sphere of the phantom and 2kBq/㎖ of ¹⁸F was injected into the body of phantom. PET-CT scan was performed with a radioacitivity ratio of 10:1. Images were reconstructed by appliying TOF+PSF+TOF, OSEM+PSF, OSEM and Gaussian filter 4.0, 4.5, 5.0, 5.5, 6.0, 6,5 mm with matrix size 128×128, slice thickness 3.75 mm, iteration 2, subset 16 conditions. The PET image was attenuation corrected using the CT images and analyzed using software program AW 4.7 (General Electric Healthcare, USA). The ROI was set to fit 6 spheres in the CT image, RC (Recovery Coefficient) was measured after fusion of PET and CT. Statistical analysis was performed wilcoxon signed rank test using R. Results Overall, after the quality control items were performed, the recovery coefficient of the phantom image increased and measured. Recovery coefficient according to the image reconstruction increased in the order TOF+PSF, TOF, OSEM+PSF, before and after quality control, RCmax increased by OSEM 0.13, OSEM+PSF 0.16, TOF 0.16, TOF+PSF 0.15 and RCmean increased by OSEM 0.09, OSEM+PSF 0.09, TOF 0.106, TOF+PSF 0.10. Both groups showed a statistically significant difference in Wilcoxon signed rank test results (P value<0.001). Conclusion PET-CT system require quality assurance to achieve high efficiency and reliability. Standardized intervals and procedures should be followed for quality control. We hope that this study will be a good opportunity to think about the importance of quality control in PET-CT

As the natural flows in rivers dramatically decrease during drought season in Korea, a deterioration of river water quality is accelerated. Thus, consideration of downstream water quality responding to changes in reservoir release is essential for an integrated watershed management with regards to water quantity and quality. In this study, water quality models based on artificial neural networks (ANNs) method were developed using historical downstream water quality (rm $\NH_3$-N) data obtained from a water treatment plant in Geum river and reservoir release data from Daechung dam. A nonlinear multiple regression model was developed and compared with the ANN models. In the models, the rm NH$_3$-N concentration for next time step is dependent on dam outflow, river water quality data such as pH, alkalinity, temperature, and rm $\NH_3$-N of previous time step. The model parameters were estimated using monthly data from Jan. 1993 to Dec. 1998, then another set of monthly data between Jan. 1999 and Dec. 2000 were used for verification. The predictive performance of the models was evaluated by comparing the statistical characteristics of predicted data with those of observed data. According to the results, the ANN models showed a better performance than the regression model in the applied cases.

제품의 품질 수준 제고를 위해 통계적 공정 관리(SPC : Statistical Process Control)의 다양한 관리도가 기업의 생산 공정을 관리하는데 사용된다. 관리도에 기록되는 공정 데이터는 특정 요인(Assignable Cause)에 의한 이상이 발생했을 때 그 요인에 따라 서로 다른 패턴(Pattern)으로 변화한다. 이러한 패턴을 구별하는 관리도 패턴(CCP : Control Chart Pattern) 인식(Recognition)은 공정에 대한 관리자의 빠른 의사 결정을 위해 매우 중요하다. 앞 선 연구들은 수집되는 원 데이터를 가공 하지않고 그대로 사용하였기 때문에 인식기(Recognizer)의 성능과 학습 속도가 저하되는 문제점이 있었다. 따라서 최근 데이터의 차원 축소와 인식기의 성능 향상을 위해 특질 추출법(Feature Extraction)을 적용한 특질 기반 인식기(Feature based Recognizer)에 대한 연구가 활발히 진행 중이다. 본 논문은 BDK(Bi-Directional Kohonen Network)를 사용하여 CCP의 참조 벡터(Reference Vector)를 생성하고 참조 벡터와 CCP 데이터의 거리를 기반으로 하는 특질을 추출하였다. 추출된 특질을 인공 신경망 기반 인식기의 입력 벡터로 사용하여 학습하였으며 원 데이터를 사용하여 학습하는 인공신경망 인식기와 예측 정확도 비교를 통해 제안 알고리즘의 성능을 평가하였다.

Development of Real-Time Quality Evaluation of Friction Welding by Acousitc Emission : Report 1 ABSTRACT : According as the friction welding has been increasingly applied in manufacturing various machine components because of its significant economic and technical advantages, one of the important concerns is the reliable quality monitoring method for a good weld quality with both joint strength and toughness in the process of its production. However no reliable nondestructive test method is available at present to determine the weld quality particularly in process of production. So this paper presents an experimental examination and quantitative analysis for the real-time evaluation of friction weld quality by acoustic emission, as a new approach which attempts finally to develop an on-line quality monitoring system design for friction welds using AE techniques. As one of the important results, it was confirmed, through this study, that AE techniques can be reliably applied to evaluating the friction weld qualify with 100% joint strength, as the cumulative AE counts occurring during welding period were quantitatively correlated with reliability at 95% confidence level to the joint strength of welds. Real-Time Evaluation of Automatic Production Quality Control for Friction Welding Machine : Report 2 Abstract : Both in-process quality control and high reliability of the weld is one of the major concerns in applying friction welding to the economical and qualified mass-production. No reliable nondestructive monitoring method is available at present to determine the real-time evaluation of automatic production quality control for friction welding machine. This paper, so that, presents the experimental examinations and statistical quantitative analysis of the correlation between the initial cumulative counts of acoustic emission(AE) occurring during plastic deformation period of the welding and the tensile strength of the welded joints as well as the various welding variables, as a new approach which attempts finally to develop an on-line (or real-time) quality monitoring system and a program for the process of real-time friction welding quality evaluation by initial AE cumulative counts. As one of the important results, it was well confirmed that the initial AE cumulative counts were quantitatively and cubically correlated with reliability of 95% confidence level to the joint strength of the welds, bar-to-bar (SCM4 to SUM31, SCM4 to SUM24L) and that an AE technique using initial AE counts can be reliably applied to real-time strength evaluation of the welded joints, and that such a program of the system was well developed resulting in practical possibility of real-time quality control more than 100% joint efficiency showing good weld with no micro-structural defects.

고도처리장의 효율적 운영을 위해 원생동물의 분포를 조사하고 수질자료의 예측을 위한 bioindicator의 가능성을 분석하였다. 원생동물 종류별 개체수 분포는 출현빈도가 높으면 개체수도 많은 편으로 관찰되었다. Aspidisca, Trachelophyllum, Vorticella, Cinetochiluum, Oikomonas, Epistylis의 출현빈도는 $95\%$이상이었다. 처리장의 원생동물 분포는 유입수의 성상과 운영조건 차이 등이 세균의 증식에 영향을 미치고 변화된 세균분포에 적합하게 원생동물 분포가 이루어진다고 판단된다. 미생물분포와 통계결과는 처리장마다 다르므로 여러 처리장보다는 단일처리장에 적용되는 지표개발이 처리장의 효율적 운영에 기여할 수 있다. 요인분석결과 요인적재량의 형태와 요인의 해석이 유사하였다. 고도처리공법이 유사하고, 유입수의 성상이 비슷하여 처리장운영에 관여하는 요인이 비슷하게 나타난 것으로 판단된다. 상관분석과 회귀방정식을 이용함으로 처리장 수질변화를 미리 예상할 수 있다. 처리장의 원생동물 분포, 유출수질, 운영조건 자료들이 충분히 확보되면 원생동물 분포를 가지고 운영현황 및 가까운 미래의 수질예측이 가능해진다. 수질예측이 가능함으로 운영조건의 조기변동으로 처리수질을 양호하게 유지할 수 있다.

Controlling of microorganisms in the industrial process is important for production and distribution of hatching and table eggs. In the previous study, we reported that chlorine dioxide ($ClO_2$) gas of a proper concentration and humidity can significantly reduce the load of Salmonella spp. on eggshells. In this study, we compared microbial reduction efficacy on egg's surface using hatching eggs and table eggs, internal quality of table eggs, and hatchability after both the conventional method (washing and UV expose, fumigation with formalin) and $ClO_2$ gas disinfection. Application of 40 ppm $ClO_2$ gas to the table and hatching eggs, respectively, reduced the aerobic plate count (APC) with no statistical difference compared with the conventional methods. Additionally, we didn't observed that any significant difference in albumin height, Haugh unit (HU), and yolk color, this result confirms that 40 ppm $ClO_2$ had no effect on the internal quality of the table eggs, when comparing with the UV treatment method. The hatchability of hatching eggs was not statistical different between formaldehyde fumigation and 80 ppm $ClO_2$ gas treatment, though the value was decreased at high concentration of 160 ppm $ClO_2$ gas. From these results, we recommend that $ClO_2$ gas can be used as a safe disinfectant to effectively control egg surface microorganisms without affecting egg quality.

The objectives of this study were to measure ambient total gaseous mercury (TGM) concentrations in Seoul, to analyze the characteristics of TGM concentration, and to identify of possible source areas for TGM using back-trajectory based hybrid receptor models like PSCF (Potential Source Contribution Function) and RTWC (Residence Time Weighted Concentration). Ambient TGM concentrations were measured at the roof of Graduate School of Public Health building in Seoul for a period of January to October 2004. Average TGM concentration was $3.43{\pm}1.17\;ng/m^3$. TGM had no notable pattern according to season and meteorological phenomena such as rainfall, Asian dust, relative humidity and so on. Hybrid receptor models incorporating backward trajectories including potential source contribution function (PSCF) and residence time weighted concentration (RTWC) were performed to identify source areas of TGM. Before hybrid receptor models were applied for TGM, we analysed sensitivities of starting height for HYSPLIT model and critical value for PSCF. According to result of sensitivity analysis, trajectories were calculated an arrival height of 1000 m was used at the receptor location and PSCF was applied using average concentration as criterion value for TGM. Using PSCF and RTWC, central and eastern Chinese industrial areas and the west coast of Korea were determined as important source areas. Statistical analysis between TGM and GEIA grided emission bolsters the evidence that these models could be effective tools to identify possible source area and source contribution.
