This study investigated the seismic performance of a hybrid damper composed of a steel slit plate and friction pads, and an optimum retrofit scheme was developed based on life cycle cost. A sample hybrid damper was tested under cyclic loading to confirm its validity as a damping device and to construct its nonlinear analysis model. The effectiveness of the optimum damper distribution schemes was investigated by comparing the seismic fragility and the life cycle costs of the model structure before and after the retrofit. The test results showed that the damper behaved stably throughout the loading history. Numerical analysis results showed that the slit-friction hybrid dampers optimally distributed based on life cycle cost proved to be effective in minimizing the failure probability and the repair cost after earthquakes.

In this work, we analyzed correlations between life-cycle greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions and life-cycle cost of energy resources. Energy resources studied in this paper include coal, natural gas, nuclear power, hydropower, geothermal energy, wind power, solar thermal energy, and solar photovoltaic energy, and all of them are used to generate electricity. We calculated the mean values, ranges of maximum minus minimum values, and ranges of 90% confidence interval of life-cycle GHG emissions and life-cycle cost of each energy resource. Based on the values, we plotted them in two dimensional graphs to analyze a relationship and characteristics between GHG emissions and cost. Besides, to analyze the technical maturity, the GHG emissions and the range of minimum and maximum values were compared to each other. For the electric generation, energy resources are largely inverse proportional to the GHG emission and the corresponding cost.

With domestic construction projects becoming bigger, more specialized and more advanced, the construction industry is striving to improve quality and quantity, and is diversifying functions and shapes. Nevertheless, the process of a construction project causes problems when we estimate construction price, because the cost breakdown structures are different in each step. The primary aim of this study was to estimate building life cycle cost using the Delphi method. The cost breakdown structure for life cycle cost was classified into planning, design, construction, maintenance and waste disposal, and each detailed classification was determined by estimating life cycle cost. Moreover, the developed cost breakdown structure is verified by consulting with experts to secure objectivity and validity.

본 연구는 구조물의 최적안전수준과 수명기간동안 투자되는 총비용과의 상관관계를 연구하였다. 설계, 건설 및 공용 중 투자되는 총비용을 최소화하면서 최적의 안전수준을 결정하기 위하여 신뢰성해석을 수행하였다. 신뢰성해석에는 설계인자들의 불확실성과 설계 및 공사, 유지관리를 수행하는 인간의 오류 등 인적 불확실성을 확률변수로 고려하였다. 이러한 확률해석을 통한 안전지수와 생애주기비용의 상관관계를 연구하고, 생애주기비용의 분산도에 따른 안전지수의 민감도해석을 통하여 최적의 안전수준을 결정하였다. 해석결과는 이러한 평가방법이 교통시설물에 투자되는 비용을 최소화하면서 최적의 안전수준을 결정할 수 있는 정확하고 유용한 방법임을 보여주었다.

The mechanical properties and durabilities of fiber advanced composites make them ideal for widespread applications in construction worldwide. However, one of the problems of fiber reinforced advanced composites has expensive initial costs. So the efforts for lowering the initial cost have to be needed. There has been hardly assessment results of life cycle cost for fiber reinforced advanced composites in construction field, but some papers showed that total life cycle cost could be profitable, if the initial cost could be reduced. The purpose of this paper is to report assessment results of LCC(Life Cycle Cost) for application of FRP(Fiber Reinforced Plastic) in construction field.

건축물의 총 소유비용을 분석하기 위해서는 초기단계의 설계와 시공비용 이외에도 기획비용, 유지관리 및 운영비용을 고려해야 한다. 이를 LCC(Life Cycle Cost)라고 부른다. 현재, 충분한 데이터와 기준의 부족으로 인해 LCC의 분석에 많은 어려움을 겪고 있다. 본 연구에서는 건축물의 LCC 분석 방법을 제시하고, 현대식 아파트와 전통 한옥 주택에 대한 LCC 사례 분석을 수행하고자 한다. 사례 연구의 결과 한옥이 현대식 아파트에 비해 유지보수와 운영 비용에 있어서 보다 효율적인 것으로 조사되었다.

Life cycle costing is one of the most effective approaches for the cost analysis of long-term life products, like as railroad vehicle. Life cycle costing includes the cost of concept design, development, manufacture, operating, maintenance and disposal. Especially, life cycle costing in the railroad industry has been focused on the maintenance cost. In this paper, we investigated the standard, guide and maintenance information of railroad vehicle. For this purpose, we suggested the unique templates of railroad vehicle maintenance information. We also performed maintenance cost analysis on the some sub-system of railroad vehicle for the case study.

수명주기비용(Life Cycle Cost, LCC) 분석이란 분석 대상의 수명주기 전 기간에 걸친 총 원가산정을 통하여 해당 시스템을 평가하는 것이다. 철도시스템은 급전, 기계, 전기신호 등의 분야가 결합된 시스템으로 대규모 자본을 효율적으로 이용해야만 하는 문제를 안고 있다. 특히, 자기부상열차 시스템은 고도의 기술력이 필요하며 현재 국내에서 개발 단계에 있는 시스템으로, 비용 관련 연구가 더욱 필요한 실정이다. 따라서 국외의 철도시스템 및 자기부상열차 시스템에 대한 수명주기비용 연구 동향을 바탕으로 하여 국내의 자기부상열차 시스템에 적용할 수 있는 수명주기비용에 관한 모델을 제안하고자 한다.

A major portion of the capital costs in the present day power transmission systems are due to the cost of equipment and construction process. Transmission utilities in the recent years are drawing greater attention towards performing life cycle costing studies for cost management and decision making. However, the data involved in these studies are highly uncertain and the effect of these uncertainties cannot be directly included in the study process, resulting in inaccurate solutions. Interval mathematics provides a method for including these uncertainties throughout the cost analysis and provides final solution range in the form of intervals. In this regard, it is essential and extremely important that significant research has to be carried out in understanding the principles of life cycle costing methodology and its applicability to cost analysis of transmission lines along with uncertainties involved in the cost assessment process. In this paper, economic analysis of power transmission lines using interval mathematics has been studied. Life cycle costing studies are performed using net present value analysis on a range transmission lines used in India and the results are analyzed. A cost break even analysis considering right of way costs was carried out to determine the point of economy indifference.

This paper presents the result of life-cycle cost (LCC) estimation for domestic products propulsion control system (motor block unit) of KTX-1 considering periodic maintenance. Life cycle costing is one of the most effective approaches for the cost analysis of long-life systems such as the KTX-1. Life cycle costing includes the cost of concept design, development, manufacture, operation, maintenance and disposal. To estimate LCC for domestic products motor block unit, it was analyzed physical breakdown structure (PBS) on motor unit in view of maintenance cost and unit cost etc. As a results, life cycle cost on motor block unit increased moderately expect for periodical time when major parts are replaced at the same time. hereafter this results will be reflected in the domestic products being developed.
