Ecotoxicity assessments of 90 selected effluents of 22 industry types from 2002 to 2004 in Korea were evaluated by a toxic battery of bioassay test using fish Oryzias latipes, invertebrate Daphnia magna, algae Selenastrum capricornutum and bacteria Vibrio fischeri with the physicochemical measurement items and permit concentrations on the present Water Quality Conservation Act in Korea. Total toxic unit (${\Sigma}TU$) of 8 industry types of 22 industry types by the toxic battery appeared in order of the value site as follows; Pigment Dye Manufacturing (${\Sigma}TU$ 217.1) > Textile and Dye (${\Sigma}TU$ 39.3) > Semiconductor Electronic Manufacturing (Small) (${\Sigma}TU$ 25.6) > Wastewater and Sewage Treatment Plants (${\Sigma}TU$ 25.4) > Coating (${\Sigma}TU$ 23.8) > Leather Skin Manufacturing (${\Sigma}TU$ 18.0) > Synthetic Resin Manufacturing (${\Sigma}TU$ 15.6) > Assemble Metal Manufacturing (${\Sigma}TU$ 10.7). Our results demonstrate that ecotoxicity assessment, by bioassay test, is effective and practical for industrial wastewater management for 90 selected effluents with the limitation of the physicochemical permit. Among 90 effluents, 9 samples failed physicochemical permit limitation and 81 passed it. In result of ecotoxicity assessment of 90 effluents by the toxic battery, 76 effluents exhibited ecotoxicity and the others did not. The physicochemical measurement items and permit concentrations on the present Water Quality Conservation Act in Korea were low related to the ecotoxicity value by the toxic battery and appeared limited for water quality management to water-ecosystem and environment-friendly management of water.

This study was carried out to investigate the influence of ${\sigma}$ phase on the microstructure and mechanical properties in super duplex stainless steel. The precipitation of ${\sigma}$ phase during isothermal heat treatment showed the type S curves with a certain incubation period. The precipitation of ${\sigma}$ phase was precipitated at ferrite phase and interface of ferrite and austenite. Under the state of isothermal transformation, the precipitation of ${\sigma}$ phase was stimulated by applied stress. With increasing of volume fraction of precipitated ${\sigma}$ phase, tensile strength was increased and elongation was decreased with linear relationship, while in case of precipitated ${\sigma}$ phase was 5% over, impact value was rapidly decreased.

This study deals with the problem of selecting 6 sigma projects. Traditionally, such selection was based on CTQ (critical to quality) or COPQ (cost of poor quality) derived within business units. Since the objective of 6 sigma is to achieve business goals in a short period, 6 sigma projects should be selected and carried out in coincidence with the whole company's strategies. This paper proposes two methods of selecting 6 sigma projects: one is to identify CTQ's by analyzing the company's BSC's (balanced score card) and then deploying them into subunits of the company and the other is to identify those projects with large hidden COPQ or cost of waste by applying value stream analysis and process model simulation to derive process cost models.

With the increase in the annealing temperature, the volume fraction of austenite phase increased and the volume fraction of ferrite phase decreased. In compliance with the addition of N, not only the volume fraction of austenite phase was increased but also the austenite structure was made larger. Volume fraction of ${\sigma}$ phase was increased by decreasing of the volume fraction of ferrite phase, with the increase in the aging time and in compliance with the addition of N. As increasing in volume fraction of ${\sigma}$ phase, tensile strength and hardness increased, while elongation and impact value decreased. Elongation slowly decreased and impact value rapidly decreased at the early stage of aging. By the added N, tensile strength, elongation, hardness and impact value was increased.

In this paper, a statistical meaning that the 1% frequency value which is used as a basis for the temperature specification generation for weapon systems is similar to $3{\sigma}$ frequency value of a year is presented, and the theoretical reference for temperature specification generation is made. The new method which extracts the 1% frequency value from general weather data, not depending on long term temperature hour data, is established, and the temperature analysis result of East Asia is also presented by using this method. On the basis of these result, operational temperature for the weapon systems to be used in the area of East Asia is recommended.

Lateral dispersion parameter(.sigma.$_{y}$) which is an important factor in atmospheric dispersion can be estimated byusing wind direction fluctuation(.sigma.$_{\theta}$). In this paper, we studied the characteristics of the .sigma.$_{\theta}$ in the Chunchon basin and calculated the .sig- ma.$_{y}$ by using the .sigma.$_{\theta}$. We could find some characteristics of the .sigma.$_{\theta}$ which showed small value, when the atmospheric condition was in weak unstable (C class) and neutral (D class). Moreover, when the atmospheric stability was neutral, there was no difference of .sigma.$_{\theta}$ with wind speed. On the other hand, .sigma.$_{\theta}$ showed large values at the strong unstable (A class) and strong stable (F class) condition with low wind speed. In this case, the .sigma.$_{\theta}$ increased as long as averaging time due to the long-period wind direction fluctuation by the terrain effect. In the result of calculation of .sigma.$_{y}$, it was smaller than that of pasquill-Gifford curve. Especially, when the atmospheric condition was in a neutral and stable, .sigma.$_{y}$ showed small increment as the downwind distance increased.creased.

Let : [0, 1] $\times$ [0, $\infty$) $\longrightarrow$ [0, $\infty$) be continuous and a ${\in}$ C([0, 1], [0, $\infty$)),and let ${\xi}_{i}$ $\in$ (0, 1) with 0 < {\xi}$_1$ < ${\xi}_2$ < … < ${\xi}_{m-2}$ < 1, $a_{i}$, $b_{i}$ ${\in}$ [0, $\infty$) with 0 < $\Sigma_{i=1}$ /$^{m-2}$ $a_{i}$ < 1 and $\Sigma_{i=1}$$^{m-2}$ < l. This paper is concerned with the following m-point boundary value problem: $\chi$″(t)＋a(t) (t.$\chi$(t))＝0,t ${\in}$(0,1), $\chi$'(0)＝$\Sigma_{i=1}$ $^{m-2}$ /$b_{i}$$\chi$'(${\xi}_{i}$),$\chi$(1)＝$\Sigma_{i=1}$$^{m-2}$$a_{i}$$\chi$(${\xi}_{i}$). The existence, multiplicity and uniqueness of positive solutions of this problem are discussed with the help of two fixed point theorems in cones, respectively.

Since the advent of Six Sigma in 1980's, Six Sigma is widely used in various industry areas, such as manufacturing, financial, government, and service, and proves its innovation ability and value by providing lots of success stories. Several researches have been conducted to adopt Six Sigma for Software Development and Software Quality Assurance-Software Six Sigma. Although the wide use of Six Sigma, there is no software tool to support the execution of Six Sigma Project. For this reason, the Quantitative Six Sigma Project Management is required to support for measuring and analyzing Six Sigma Projects, storing and reporting the results from Six Sigma Projects, and managing Six Sigma Projects through the whole process of, DMAIC or DMADV. In this paper, we introduce the design and implementation of a Quantitative Six Sigma Project Management Framework and Tool. The execution of Six Sigma Project based on Six Sigma Project Management Tool benefits the quantification, the systematization, and the integration.

Process capability is reflected on four major factors such as materials, equipments. skill of operators, and methods. The status of the process is typically represented by the mean value 〔$\mu$〕as a central tendancy, and the variance 〔$\sigma$$^2$〕 as a magnitude of dispersion. This paper analyzes the process capability by the experiment of chips is accounted on a population from the process. So, this paper analyzes the next four cases : (1) When the process distribution is changed from N[$\mu$$_1$, $\sigma$$^2$〕to N〔$\mu$$_2$, $\sigma$$^2$〕. (2) When the process distribution is changed from N[$\mu$, $\sigma$$_1$$^2$] to N[$\mu$, $\sigma$$_2$$^2$]. (3) When the population is compounded by the different two distributions of N〔$\mu$$_1$, $\sigma$$^2$〕and N〔$\mu$$_2$, $\sigma$$^2$〕. (4) When the population is compounded by the different two distributions of N〔$\mu$, $\sigma$$_1$$^2$〕 and N[$\mu$$\sigma$$_2$$^2$].
