Objectives: There were only small studies about the difference of the quality of life depending on blood stasis. We investigated that the blood stasis made the differences of quality of life. Methods: We recruited the participants stratified according to age and gender. The participants were assessed independently by two Korean medicine doctors more than 7 years of clinical experiences whether or not with blood stasis. And they responded at the questionnaire associated with blood stasis and SF-36. The analysis was done with IBM SPSS Statistics (ver. 21). Results: Total 101 participants were checked for with/without blood stasis. 40 participants were accord in the diagnosis with blood stasis by two doctors. Two researchers coincided in diagnosis with non-blood stasis in 42 participants. 19 participants showed the discrepancy between the assessment of blood stasis and they were classified as non-blood stasis. The mean age in group of blood stasis was $44.07{\pm}11.65$, it was not shown the significant difference comparing non-blood stasis group. The subscale of physical function (PF), role-physical (RP), bodily pain (BP), general health (GH), vitality (VT), mental health (MH) and role emotional (RE) in SF-36 were significantly low in the group of blood stasis. Blood test including biochemistry, fibrinogen, prothrombin time and D-dimer was not in abnormal range according to blood stasis without CRP. Conclusions: The patients that diagnosed of blood stasis showed the bad physical health status, and partially bad mental health. It is necessary to investigate whether Korean traditional treatment for blood stasis would be made improvement for quality of life. Moreover, the standardization of diagnosis on blood stasis would be needed.

Due to the increasing of the number of cars and bad road conditions, car accidens are increasing every you in Korea. When a person meets a car accident, it is necessary for him to analyze and determine whether applying insurance or not, because standard discount rate and special increasing rate change with accident types and the amount of accident expenditure. When we consider insurance rate that includes more then ten elements, we need a decision making, In this paper, S insurance company investigated previous car causers in 1988, 1989, 1990 to 1996 with 600,000 real data. We investigate probability density functions and cumulative distribution functions for each year using ARENA software. We can apply the results of this study to various accidents that occur under uncertainty in our life. I hope that this paper contribute to strengthening competitive power of companies and developing new insurance rate systems in future.

The saloon light is the device that can offer convenience and comfort to the driver and passenger when the train is operated at night or in the tunnel. Generally, The fluorescent type saloon for the rolling stock have been used, but the problems that are short life and the generation of heat have been brought about because the saloon lihgts of rolling stock are supposed to operated continuously long time, and high power consumption. So, the development of new type of saloon lights has been requested in order to solve these problems. And recently the various LED type lights have been developed and LED type saloon lights for rolling stock also has been developed. Therefore, we survey the characteristic, function and needed condition of the LED type saloon lights for rolling stock, and analyze the good and bad point, and then research the complement of weak point. We want to find the direction and develop the design of future LED saloon light type.

When caught in a fire inside a building or a tunnel the generated smoke is the main cause of the bad visibility, which makes it difficult for a person to find escape route. Therefore of the fire simulation it is required to visualize the simulated results of smoke realistically form a viewpoint of a person caught in a fire. In the present study, developed is a CFD post-processor which can visualize the object through smoke from the results of CFD fire simulation. Examples of some applications of the program are shown in the paper.

Increased cumulative running times of railroad vehicle brings out such degradation as wear and fatigue. It don't adapt corrective maintenance which repairs a poor pan after a trouble but use preventive maintenance which fixes a bad part before a trouble. There were a few researches for preventive maintenance such as inspect affairs and facilities management. They couldn't estimate the operation reliability on railroad vehicle. Therefore, this study proposes the preventive maintenance procedure that predict repair period of end beam for uncovered freight car using reliability function and instantaneous failure rate on the basis of fatigue test and load history data.

This paper probes into the influence of tire uniformity on tire's modal parameters with the method of experimental modal analysis. Two radial tires of the same kind with different uniformity level are taken to be tested at different exciting points and real modal parameters are abstracted. The differences of their modal parameters are presented. Then tire transfer functions are constructed with experimental modal parameters and ideal modal parameters respectively. It is found that the measured transfer functions of tire of good uniformity are closer to ideal transfer function than that of tire of bad uniformity. The study shows evident interrelation of experimental modal parameters and tire uniformity, and further study should be of great value.

The maintenance of a deteriorating system is often imperfect. Previous studies have shown that the imperfect preventive maintenance (PM) can reduce the wear out and aging effects of deteriorating systems to a certain level between the conditions of as good as new and as bad as old. In this paper, we employ the concept of the improvement factor in investigating two optimal PM policies; failure limit policy and periodic PM policy. We redefine the improvement factor model as a function of the cost of PM, using this concept, we derive the conditions of optimal PM policies and formulate expressions to compute the expected cost rate. Based on this information, the determination of the maintenance policies which minimize the cost rate is examined. Numerical examples for the Weibull distribution case are also given.

This paper presents a Fuzzy Neural Network (FNN) system to decide whether or not the right information of lanes can be extracted from gray-level images of road scene. The decision of noisy level of input images has been required because much noises usually deteriorates the performance of feature detection based on image processing and lead to erroneous results. As input parameters to FNN, eight noisiness indexes are constructed from a cumulative distribution function (CDF) and proved the indexes being classifiers of images as the good and the bad corrupted by sources of noise by correlation analysis between input images and the indexes. Considering real-time processing and discrimination efficiency, the proposed FNN is structured by eight input parameters, three fuzzy variables and single output. We conduct much experiments and show that our system has comparable performance in terms of false-positive rates.

We have studied the viewing angle control of a twist nematic liquid crystal display (TN-LCD). The TN-LCD exhibits a bad image quality along vertical direction, due to characteristics such as low contrast ratio and grey scale inversion. The proposed new TN-LCD has the function of switching between the wide viewing mode and narrow viewing angle mode using two tilted LC layers at both sides of a TN-cell Tilt angles of the two LC layers, $14^{\circ}$ and $60^{\circ}$ were required in both wide viewing angle and narrow viewing angle modes, respectively.

Recently, climate change around the world due to global warming has became an important issue and damages by climate change have a bad effect on human life. Changes of Sea Surface Temperature(SST) is associated with natural disaster such as Typhoon and El Nino. So we predicted daily future SST using Statistical Downscaling Method and CGCM 3.1 A1B scenario. 9 points of around Korea peninsular were selected to predict future SST and built up a regression model using Multiple Linear Regression. CGCM 3.1 was simulated with regression model, and that comparing Probability Density Function, Box-Plot, and statistical data to evaluate suitability of regression models, it was validated that regression models were built up properly.
