An improved approximate formula is presented for Series 60 forms, modifying the approximate formula, developed by the Author in 1983. The weather formula is based on interpretations of detailed calculations of speed loss, due to wind(van Berlekom), motions(Maruo), and wave reflection resistance(Kwon). Comparison is made between the result of the approximate formula and the one of detailed calculation. The result of the formula is also compared with some published full-scale data for speed loss.

We predict the unknown cannon tube erosion rate by using observed values of the standard cannon, 155mm Howitzer Ml85. We know the standard cannon's ten erosion observation values each 400 rounds. An approximate formula fitting the erosion values of the standard cannon has been derived. Numerical simulation applying this formula to the Rauf Imam's erosion equations is presented.

In this paper, an approximate formula for radiation efficiency of the plate surround by an infinite rigid baffle is studied. The plate is simply supported and one side is in contact with air, while other side with water. By assuming an infinite plate, the fluid loading effect is derived in terms of an effective mass. Based on the observation that the fluid loading effect decreases as frequency increases, the radiation efficiency formula at high frequency, which was originally derived for a plate vibrating in the air, is modified as the approximate formula for a submerged plate. The fluid loading effect is taken into account in the wavenumber of the plate. Comparisons of the approximate formula with the numerical results shows that they match well except the mid-frequency range in which numerical results show many oscillations. In numerically solving the fully coupled equations of motion, fourfold integrals of the impedance coefficients are reduced to single nonsingular integrals, which results in substantial reduction in computing time.

It is important not to overcalculate sample sizes for clinical trials due to economic, ethical, and scientific reasons. Kang and Kim (2014) investigated the accuracy of a well-known sample size calculation formula based on the approximate power for continuous endpoints in equivalence trials, which has been widely used for Development of Biosimilar Products. They concluded that this formula is overly conservative and that sample size should be calculated based on an exact power. This paper extends these results to binary endpoints for three popular metrics: the risk difference, the log of the relative risk, and the log of the odds ratio. We conclude that the sample size formulae based on the approximate power for binary endpoints in equivalence trials are overly conservative. In many cases, sample sizes to achieve 80% power based on approximate powers have 90% exact power. We propose that sample size should be computed numerically based on the exact power.

This paper deals with a simple, approximate formula to predict the natural frequencies of the sagged cable structures. Assuming that the propagation velocity of the lateral wave is dependent only on the local mass per unit length and local tension, the explicit simple formula to predict the fundamental period is newly derived. The modified form of these formula is also presented for the prediction of the fundamental period of general shaped cable structures. The results of comparison shows fairly good agreements with experimental results and with theoretical ones. This formula is also used to predict the natural frequencies of a long vertical cable and the derived approximate formula in that case, becomes identical to the exact solution.

뒤틀림 효과를 고려한 곡선보의 일반적 거동은 Vlasov에 의해 제시된 미분 방정식으로 표시된다. 일반적으로 거더의 단면을 결정하는데 가장 큰 영향을 미치는 요인은 휨모멘트이다. 곡선 교량 계획시 곡선격자형교의 단면을 쉽게 가정하기 위해서 본 논문에서는 직선거더와 곡선거더의 휨모멘트비를 제시하였다. 이 비는 중심각 ${\theta}(L/R)$를 변수로 하여 근사식으로 나타내었다. 이 휨모멘트 근사식과 제시된 영향선은 3경간 곡선격자형교를 보다 쉽게 설계하는데 이용될 수 있다.

Production lot sizing problem for a system with exponentially decaying inventory is considered. From the exact cost function developed under conditions of constant demand and no shortages permitted, an approximate optimal solution is derived. The formula is compared with those of the exact solution obtained from numerical procedure and other existing approximate solution. Finally some notable properties of the formula are investigated and shown to be consistent.

One of the critical issues associated with the 40mm long hollow cylinder's development and maintenance is the prediction of cylinder erosion. The actual firing test is the most accurate method to measure the cylinder erosion rate. But it costs a great deal and requires a long measurement time. Hence many empirical methods have been proposed to predict the erosion rate and life span of long hollow cylinders. An EFC formula is calculated. An approximate erosion formula for the ammunition type A is derived to interpolate 16 observation values up to 4,000 rounds. A new erosion equation and muzzle velocity formula are also suggested. Several numerical results are presented.

A formula to approximate the fundamental period of a fixed-free mass-spring system with varying mass and varying stiffness is formulated. The formula is derived mainly by taking the dominant parts from the general form of the characteristic polynomial, and adjusting the initial approximation by a coefficient derived from the exact solution of a uniform case. The formula is tested for a large number of randomly generated structures, and the results show that the approximated fundamental periods are within the error range of 4% with 90% of confidence. Also, the error is shown to be normally distributed with zero mean, and the width of the distribution (as measured by the standard deviation) tends to decrease as the total number of discretized elements in the system increases. Other possible extensions of the formula are discussed, including an extension to a continuous cantilever structure with distributed mass and stiffness. The suggested formula provides an efficient way to estimate the fundamental period of building structures and other systems that can be modeled as mass-spring systems.

This study was conducted to obtain acute information of the oral dose toxicity of DHU001, a polyherbal formula in male and female mice. In order to calculated 50% lethal dose ($LD_{50}$) and approximate lethal dose (LD), test material was once orally administered to male and female ICR mice at dose levels of 2000, 1000, 500, 250 and 0 (vehicle control) ml/kg (body weight). The mortality and changes on body weight, clinical signs, gross observation, organ weight and histopathology of principle organs were monitored 14 days after treatment with DHU001. We could not find any mortalities, DHU001 treatment-related clinical signs, changes on the body and organ weights, gross and histopathological findings. The results obtained in this study suggest that $LD_{50}$ and approximate LD in mice after single oral dose of DHU001 were considered over 2000 mg/kg in both female and male mice.
