The metropolitan cities and operation companies of urban transit railway are driving to construct the LRT(light rail transit) system because of the advantage of construction cost and environmental serviceability. This study suggests the optimal design method of steel box girder considering dynamic characteristics of LRT with rubber wheel. The behavior and design constraints are formulated based on the structural design criteria for LRT. Genetic algorithm is applied to the minimum weight design of structural system. A typical example is solved to illustrate the applicability of the proposed minimization algorithm. From the results of application example, the optimum design of steel box girder is successfully accomplished. Therefore, this system can act as a consultant to assist novice designers in the design of steel box girder for LRT with rubber wheel.

The operation and management of a plant require proper accounting for the constraints coming from reliability requirements as well as from budget and resource considerations. Most of the mathematical methods to decide the inspection time interval for plant maintenance by reliability theory are too complicated to be solved. Moreover, the mathematical and theoretical models are not usually cases in the practical applications. In order to overcome these problems, we propose a new the decision-making method of optimal inspection interval to minimize the maintenance cost by reliability theory and genetic algorithm (GA). The most merit of the proposed method is to decide the inspection interval for a plant machine of which failure rate $\lambda$(t) conforms to any probability distribution. Therefore, this method is more practical. The efficiency of the proposed method is verified by comparing the results obtained by GA-based method with the inspection model haying regular time interval.

The characterization of the reactively sputtered ITO layer on the PET film has been studied. The PEM device has been used to determine the optimum stoichimetry through control of the amount of oxygen incorporated into the alloy target and the optimum operation conditions to produce films with the highest electrical conductivity and visible transparency. The PEP film was pre-treated under the plasma discharge condition to remove the adsorbed gases and to modify the surface morphology. The results revealed that by adjusting the flow rate of oxygen with the spectral intensity of indium target, the composition of plasma gas can be kept constant during the entire deposition period. The resistivity of ITO film obtained was fond to be about 37$\Omega\Box$, and the transmittance of visual range was about 86%.

This paper presents a neuro-fuzzy modelling method that determines chemicals dosing model based on historical operation data for effective water quality control in water treatment system and calculates automatically the amount of optimum chemicals dosing against the changes of raw water qualities and flow rate. The structure identification in the modelling by means of neuro-fuzzy reasing is performed by Genetic Algorithm(GA) and Complex Method in which the numbers of hidden layer and its hidden nodes, learning rate and connection pattern between input layer and output layer are identified. The learning network is implemented utilizing Back Propagation(BP) algorithm. The effectiveness of the proposed modelling scheme and the feasibility of the acquired neuro-fuzzy network is evaluated through computer simulation for chemicals dosing control in water treatment system.

In this research, coagulation was employed as the pretreatment for membrane process. The effective coagulation conditions were decided after the discussion of different coagulant doses and mixing conditions, etc. Raw water was taken from Nakdong River. The best operation occurred when G value was $230s^{-1}$ and the slow mixing lasted around 5 minutes at G value was $23s^{-1}$. To investigate the optimum coagulant dosage, the optimum organics removal was target as organic removal reduces membrane fouling effectively than particle removal. This result indicated that organics are more important causes than turbidity for membrane fouling. However, turbidity becomes an important factor after certain amount of organic matters is removed.

A 3 valve-type pulse tube refrigerator optains its cooling effect from pressure drop by releasing the part of the charged gas through hot end nozzle. The objective of this study is to analyze the performance and to find an optimal expansion pressure of the 3 valve-type pulse tube refrigerator. It is assumed that gas lumps are not mixed and periodically repeat the adiabatic compression and expansion processes. And the nodal model is applied for the analysis of the regenerator. As the result of analysis, the optimum pressure at the end of expansion process was about 80-90% of the maximum pressure.

A macerating technique which can apply to the mechanical production system of the agricultural by-product was developed to increase the utilization of agricultural waste and solve the shortage problem in the forage supply for the livestock production. The macerating method is to shred the agricultural by-product by the two rolls which rotate at different speeds each other. The testing macerator was built and the optimum operating conditions are suggested. Results of this research are as follows: 1. The increase of the base roll speed and speed ratio between two rolls shows the better shredding index but decrease the drying rate. The optimum conditions of the base roll speed and the speed ratio between two rolls for the rice straw are 1200 rpm and 1.7-2.0 respectively. 2. The macerated alfalfa was dried to the 15%(w.b.) within 3 hrs in a field at speed ratio of rolls, 2:1 and base roll speed, 1800rpm. 3. The milled surface and straight knurled surface for the macerating roll have same effect on the drying rate of material. Both rolls have self-cleaning functions during operation.

The spindle is the main component in machine tools. To develop high speed machine tools, a lot of studies have been carried out for high speed spindle. Bearing is very important part in spindle. The bearing clearance is influenced by shrink fit and thermal expansion during operation. The designer must take into account the reduction of shrink fits. The aims of this study are to grasp the shrink fits and behavior of a bearing which is a deeply connected with fatigue life of bearing and performance of spindle through FEM(Finite Element Method). This paper proposed optimum value of shrink fit considering deformation of spindle and stress of fitting area using design of experiments. Thus, the proposed formula can be used to obtain bearing internal clearance.

The purpose of this study is to get optimum design and operation conditions of the heating rubber roller for laminating process. The cause of performance degradation of heating rubber roller is delamination of rubber on metal tube, rubber aging due to high temperature. We measured the material properties of thermal expansion, thermal conductivity, specific heat and density and analyzed thermal distributions of rubber layer using finite element method. As a result of heat/flow analysis, the density distribution of heating coil must shorten the stabilization time by reducing the temperature deviation on the length direction at the temperature rising section after increasing the density of the area contacting with the laminate film at the center part which is an opposite of the current composition while enabling to maintain the temperature of heater to be consistent while maintaining the temperature deviation to be low when heat loss is created. Finally, we determined optimum heating method of heating rubber roller.

The thyratron is a very important device in the modulator as the high power switch but there is no method to diagnose the inside of the thyratron. The thyratron always require ranging, maintaining of the proper pressure, for the optimum operation of the thyratron. But, up to now this only depends on the experience of the operator. In this paper, we discuss the diagnostic of the thyratron by the convection heat current and the principle and experimental data will be compared for the automatical adjustment of optimum gas pressure of the thyratron at the intial stage.
