This study is designed to find out the physicochemical quality and the morphological features of Korean wheat flour and imported wheat flour with a view to shed light on their difference. In terms of components, Korean wheat flour and imported wheat flour are similar, but the latter turns out to be better than the former when it comes to crude protein, the ratio of water absorption and the power of maintenance. Yet Korean wheat flour turns out to be better than imported wheat flour. In terms of the chromaticity of wheat flour, the latter turns out to be higher than the former when it comes to L value, while the former turns out to be higher than the latter when it comes to a value and b value. In terms of the morphological features of wheat flour, both are in the shape of an oval with starch particles irregularly attached to gluten. And imported wheat flour is getter than Korean wheat flour in terms of the size of particles.

It compared quality characteristics for the stone surface treatment system and its products. With the result, the flame burner equipment was mainly used to the surface treatment of granite, but it occurred greatly the high temperature, the rock fragment, the noise and dust. For the other side, the whetstone polishing machine for the polishing was a maintenance for the specific physical properties of stone, and it did not occur the stone fragment and the dust. The durability of the stone products due to the flame burner was investigated with that it falls to $20\sim25\%$ more than the surface treatment by the whetstone polishing. Share's hardness of the polishing products in the durability test showed more greatly index than the flame burner and conventional product. The polishing products of Pochon stone in the case of the abrasion resistance showed great more $15\%$ than the general products, more $9\%$ than the products by the flame burner.

Manufacturers collect and analyze field reliability data to enhance the quality and reliability of their products and to improve customer satisfaction. To reduce the data collecting and maintenance costs, the amount of data maintained for evaluating product quality and reliability should be minimized. With this in mind, some industrial companies assemble warranty databases by gathering data from different sources for a particular time period. This “marginal count failure data” does not provide (i) the number of failures by when the product entered service, (ii) the number of failures by product age, or (iii) information about the effects of the operating season or environment. This article describes a method for estimating age-based claim rates from marginal count failure data. It uses covariates to identify variations in claims relative to variables such as manufacturing characteristics, time of manufacture, operating season or environment. A Poisson model is presented, and the method is illustrated using warranty claims data for two electrical products.

In this study, an investigation was made to study the chemical resistance performance of epoxy resin injection type leakage repair material used in the Korean construction market in accordance to the test method outlined in "ISO TS 16774, Part 2; Test Method for Chemical Resistance." This is a new standard document used for quality control method of injection type repair material used for leakage cracking of underground concrete structures. The results of this study can be expected to be utilized as reference data that can be used for quality improvement of the maintenance methods for future construction.

For the Evaluation of X-ray image intensifier, we measured radiation dose at input of I. I., brightness and fluorescence at output of I. I. by using X-ray exposure meter, optometer and fluorescence meter for the relative conversion factor. Especially, by using fluorescence meter, we could easily get relative conversion factor without having regulated machine by JIS. Since using, the quality of image intensifier is going down. Consequently, it needs continuous quality maintenance.

Cheap, low quality food products that are unhealthy are prevailing among children. These low quality products are stirring up the urge to purchase among children and so it is pointed out as a problem. In order to arrive at a solution for the indication of negligence on the side of manufacturing, processing, circulation, and marketing management, a survey asking about interests and preferences on insanitary food products was held during May 2, 2005 to June 30. The subjects were 540 students and 510 parents form 5 elementary schools located at Gwangjin Gu, Seoul including Ja-yang elementary school, etc. This study aims at arranging measures against insanitary food products and contribution to maintenance of children's health.

A generalized spare ordering policy is treated in this paper. If the operating unit fails before a scheduled ordering time an expedited order is placed at the failure time instant, otherwise a regular order for a spare is placed at the scheduled time. The original unit is replaced when the ordered spare is delivered. The lifetime, regular and expedited lead times have general distributions. The problem is to find the optimum ordering time which minimizes the expected cost rate including the observation, ordering, uptime and down-time costs. Some properties regarding the optimal policy are derived. To explain the spare ordering policy a numerical example is also included.

This research proposes comprehensive models for analyzing common cause failures (CCF) due to cumulative shocks and to assess system reliability under the CCF. The proposed cumulative shock models are based on the binomial failure rate (BFR) model. Six kinds of models are proposed so as to explain diverse cumulative shock phenomena. The models are composed of the initial failure probability, shape parameter, and the total shock number. Some parameters of the proposed models can not be explicitly estimated, so we adopt the Expectation-maximization (EM) algorithm in order to obtain the maximum likelihood estimator (MLE) for the parameters. By estimating the parameters for the cumulative shock models, the system reliability with CCF can be assessed sequentially according to the number of cumulative shocks. The result can be utilizes in dynamic probabilistic safety assessment (PSA), aging studies, or risk management for nuclear power plants. Replacement or maintenance policies can also be developed based on the proposed model.

The purpose of this paper was to review Intelligent Compaction (IC) techniques, which is regarded relatively new to the railroad roadbed construction activity. Most of civil structures are built on roadbed that supposed to provide adequate load bearing support to the upper structure through the qualified compaction process. However, it is not uncommon for structure failure attributed to inadequate compaction control take place in field sites. Unlike traditional compaction control method to check field density at several locations, IC techniques continuously measure various compaction quality indices that represent compaction uniformity. In this paper, a series of literature review relevant to IC techniques was conducted to provide concise summary on the following categories: 1) background of IC technique; 2) Summary of IC vendors and basic principles; 3) modeling of IC behavior, and 4) case study along with correlation between IC with other measurements. In summary, IC technologies seem to be promising in future railroad construction to achieve better compaction quality control so that the serviceability of railroad can be ensured with minimizing rehabilitation and maintenance activities.

To secure quality of dam construction needs appropriate construction duration. Tight construction schedule may have negative influence on infrastructure quality, work safety and maintenance cost. It is necessary to reflect proper construction duration in the planning phase. There have been standards for estimating construction duration of building and industrial complex development but dam construction have not. In order to estimate construction duration of CFRD, feasible study reports and design reports were analyzed to acquire available information. After that, considering on construction duration methods such as comparison with similar cases, approximate estimating formula, approximate quantity assumption were adapted to Critical Path items. Hence, this study present framework for construction duration estimating of CFRD in the planning phase. This framework can be applied other types of dam along the same line.
