The research proposes the complementary methodology using integrated hypothesis testing and confidence interval models that can be identified the statistical difference and practical equivalence. The models developed in this study can be used in the quality improvement processes such as QC story 15 steps. For the expressions of CI4LSD(Confidence Interval for Least Significant Difference) and CI4TOST(Confidence Interval for Two One-Sided Tests) are simple, quality practioners can efficiently handle them. CI4TOST models as a complement can be applied when CI4LSD models are influenced by sample size and precision.

A new apparatus called the EFA (Erosion Function Apparatus) has been built and tested to measure the erodibility of fine-grained soils. The EFA is a simple test to predict the erosion rate of fine-grained soils along with the corresponding velocity and shear stress. In addition, it is advantageous in predicting the scour rate for actual soil samples from bridge sites. The plot of erosion rate versus shear stress is the result of an EFA test. It Indicates the critical shear stress at which erosion starts and the rate of erosion beyond that shear stress. In order to measure the erodibilities of various soils, 14 Shelby Tube soil samples are collected from the actual bridge sites and tested using the EFA. The results of the EFA tests which are the relationships between erosion rates and shear stresses are presented in this paper and research continues to develop the correlation between the erosion function and the soil properties.

This paper studies the effect of saturation of backfill on the seismic stability of reinforced soil walls (RSWs) using centrifuge shaking table tests. For comparison, degradation of static stability and seismic stability of a RSW under unsaturated condition was also investigated. Test results showed that the RSW under saturated condition had enough static stability. However, seismic stability of saturated RSW significantly decreased as compared with that under unsaturated condition. The saturated model RSW did not collapse, though it showed large deformation. It maintained sufficient stability after shakings although a clear slip surface appeared in the backfill. Finally, it is discussed how to evaluate residual stability of RSWs damaged by earthquakes with test results and the simple evaluation method proposed by authors.

This paper presents a simple thermo-physical model of reciprocating compressors for household refrigerator-freezers. The compressor model has been developed based on thermodynamic principles and large data sets from the compressor calorimeter tests. The input data are compressor geometry (displacement and clearance volume), compressor speed, suction pressure and temperature, discharge pressure, and ambient temperature. The model can estimate mass flow rate and compressor power consumption within 3.0% accuracy, which is not much larger than measurement errors associated with calorimeter testing under ideal conditions.

Many astrophysical high energy phenomena involve relativistic flows. We describe codes for adiabatic and isothermal flows in relativistic regimes. For adiabatic flows, we employ an equation of state (EOS) which is simple and yet approximates very closely the EOS of the single-component perfect gas. For isothermal flows, we use an EOS of constant sound speed. We present the eigenstructures of relativistic hydrodynamics which can be used to build numerical codes, and discuss the calculation of primitive variables from conservative ones for both adiabatic and isothermal flows. The shock tube tests show differences between the two flows.

A method to determine the fracture energy of concrete is investigated. The fracture energy may be calculated from the area under the complete load-deflection curve which can be obtained from a stable three-point bend test. Several series of concrete beams have been tested. The Present experimental study indicates that the fracture energy decreases as the initial notch-to-beam depth ratio increases Some problems to be observed to employ the three-point bend method are discussed. The appropriate ratio of initial notch-to-beam depth to determine the fracture energy of concrete is found to be 0.5. It is also found that the influence of the self-weight of a beam to the fracture energy is very small A simple and accurate formula to predict the fracture energy of concrete is proposed.

A series of dynamic and static tests were conducted to observe the actual responses of a 1:5 scale 3-story reinforced concrete(RC) frame which was designed only for gravity loads. One of the major objectives of these experiments is to provide the calibration to the available static and dynamic inelastic analysis techniques. In this study, the experimental results were simulated by using a nonlinear analysis program for reinforced concrete frame, IDARC-2D. The evaluation of the degree of the simulation leads to the conclusion that while the global behaviors such as story drifts and shears can be in general simulated with the limited accuracy in the dynamic nonlinear analysis, it is rather easy and simple to get the fairly high level of accuracy in the prediction of global and local behaviors in the static nonlinear analysis by using IDARC-2D.

The SRM (Switched Reluctance Motor) has a more inherent simple mechanical structure, greater ruggedness and higher efficiency than a conventional AC motor. It is for these reasons that SRM is widely applied in an extensive range of industrial applications. In this paper, SRM is designed and analyzed for EPS (Electrical Power Steering) application. Electrical power steering in a vehicle plays the role of reducing a driver's handling control power. For proper design, a FEM analysis is implemented according to the rotor structure. Using both a FEM and a magnetic circuit analysis, a designed motor is simulated and tested. The effectiveness of the suggested SRM drive for EPS application is verified by the prototype motor drive tests.

This report deals with the relations between the vibration restraint and the stress-strain properties of the stretch fabrics. For this purpose, a survey was carried out about the preferences in sports-brassiere. Six experimental sports-brassieres of an equal design, but of different materials were tested for vibration using an accelerometer and a motion analyzer while the subject is jogging. 1. The results of the survey on sports-brassiere preferences are as follows; Preferable factors are simple design, shield and close adhesion of sports brassiere. Dissatisfied factors on the sports-brassiere are drooping, vibrating of the breast, itching and wetting. The B-cup-size group perceive the bigger vibration and drooping than A-cup-size. 2. The results of the wearing tests are as follow; This experiment shows the vibration restraint effects on different stretch fabrics, such as hard, medium and soft nature. There was a linear relationship between the vibration restraint and combination of different types of stretch fabrics. Among different brassiere types, the 2-layered brassiere (inner layer of high tension fabric and outer layer of lower stretch fabric) showed the least vibration. In the case of 2-lay brassiere, the wearing comfort rate was highest.

The ROC analysis is considered for multiple class diagnosis. There exist many criteria to find optimal thresholds and measure the accuracy of diagnostic tests for k dimensional ROC analysis. In this paper, we proposed a diagnostic accuracy measure called the correct classification simple rate, which is defined as the summation of true rates for each classification distribution and expressed as a function of summation of sequential true rates for two consecutive distributions. This measure does not weight accuracy across categories by the category prevalence and is comparable across populations for multiple class diagnosis. It is found that this accuracy measure does not only have a relationship with Kolmogorov - Smirnov statistics, but also can be represented as a linear function of some optimal threshold criteria. With these facts, the suggested measure could be applied to test for comparing multiple distributions.
