Problem definition is as important as problem solving in decision making. Decision makers, however, tend to see problem partly or to define it unclearly. The researchers on decision making tend to lay a focus only on the Process of solving the given problem. This dissertation empirically studied the Problem diagnosis and definition in the decision making process. This study developed three kinds of DSS(Decision Support System) for the research and analyzed the effectiveness of the problem diagnosis and definition using DSS developed in this study. The three kinds of DSS are K-T(Kennel and Tregoe) DSS which is a method of table-styled information Presentation, and F-N(Fact-Net) DSS and C-E(Cause and Effect) DSS which are methods of graphic-styled information presentation. The empirical study was conducted twice; the pilot test and the main test. The samples of experiment are 218 students for the pilot test and 259 students for the main test. The author used K-T DSS and F-N DSS for the pilot test, and the revised K-T DSS and C-E DSS for the main test. A questionnaire survey method was included in the main test process The result of the study shows that the group using DSS in problem diagnosis and definition is more effective than the group not using DSS. A table-styled information presentation DSS, K-T, turns out more effective than a graphic-styled information presentation DSS, F-N, K-T DSS and C-E DSS showed no significant differences in the effectiveness in the main test. These results indicate that the use of DSS in the stage of problem diagnosis and definition is very effective and the methods and types of system design are a significant factors for DSS development.

The purpose of this study was to observe the influence of adhesive force of lifter on powdered fingermark. First, an experiment was conducted to measure the adhesive force of five kinds of lifters. Second, each fingermark deposited on slide glass was developed using four kinds of powders. Then, these were transferred to lifter, and the quality of the transferred fingermark was observed. As a result of measuring the adhesive force of the lifter using the ASTM D3121-17 rolling ball tack method, the difference in adhesion between the lifters except the gelatin lifter was small. Also, it was confirmed that the quality of the transferred fingermark was not significantly related to the adhesive force of the lifter. However, if the quality of the transferred fingermark is not good when transferring to a gelatin lifter which is a lifter having a weak adhesive force, additional transfer is possible.

This study performed fault test on global positoining system (GPS) carrier phase measurements, which is a preprocessing step to generate the positioning correction information based on the global navigation satellite system (GNSS) infrastructure. The existing carrier acceleration ramp step test (CARST) method affects the test result by using the mean value to eliminate the receiver clock error. In this regard, this study applied differencing and compared its results with those of the existing CARST. The fault simulation that applied artificial faults to the actual data found that the fault could be detected independently on each satellite when difference method was applied, and the single difference CARST and the double difference CARST produced similar results. The comparison with the existing method using actual data demonstrated the strengths and weaknesses of satellite and station single difference. Nevertheless, it is our understanding that it would require an additional analysis to determine whether the results were affected by the satellite or receiver clock error.

This study discusses special aspects of severe accident related recriticality modeling and analysis in the Advanced Neutron Source (ANS) reactor.$^{1, 2)}$ The analytical comparison of three elements core to former two elements case is conducted including evaluation of suitable nuclear cross-section sets to account for the effects of system configulation, fuel and moderator mixture temperature, material dispersion and the other thermal-hydraulics. Three elements core ANS reactor is the alternative core design which was proposed as a modified core design, with three fuel elements instead of two, that would allow operation with only 50% enriched uranium (former uranium fuel is the baseline design value of 93%) A comprehensive test matrix of calculations to evaluate the threat of a criticality event in the ANS is described. Strong dependencies still on geometry, material constituents, and thermal-hydraulic conditions are verified. Therefore, the concepts of mitigative design features are qualified.d.

항공기 착륙 시 발생되는 높은 충격하중에서 승무원 및 기체를 보호하기 위해 높은 충격흡수율이 요구된다. 따라서 착륙 시 발생하는 충격을 효과적으로 흡수할 수 있는 착륙장치는 항공기 핵심 구성요소이다. 다양한 종류의 완충장치가 존재하나, 소형항공기 주착륙장치에는 판스프링 방식을 이용하여 충격에너지를 흡수할 수 있다. 착륙장치의 완충 성능은 반드시 낙하시험을 통해 입증하여야 하며, 이는 미 연방 항공 규정에서 요구하고 있는 사항이다. 이 논문에서는 소형항공기 낙하시험을 위한 설비, 시험 절차 및 낙하시험 수행 결과를 제시한다.

A heart diagnosis system adopts Superconducting Quantum Interface Device(SQUID) sensors for precision MCG signal acquisitions. Such system is composed of hundreds of sensors, requiring fast signal sampling and precise analog-digital conversions(ADC). Our development of hardware board, processing 64-channel 12-bit 1ks/s, is built by using 8-channel ADC chips, 8-bit microprocessors, SPI interfaces, and parallel data transfers between microprocessors to meet the 1ks/s, i.e. 1 ms speed. The test result shows that the signal acquisition is done in 168 usuc which is much shorter than the required 1 ms period. This hardware will be extended to 256 channel data acquisition to be used for the diagnosis system.

The main purpose of this study is to highlight the importance and validity of introduction of stress-concerned aptitude items for the safety critical workers, corresponding to the radical environmental change in railway industry. To attain this purpose, the author performed a brief literature survey, and scrutinized the western practice in detail. Then, the necessity of introduction of stress-related aptitude items was suggested, based on the statistics resulted from a survey which has been once performed for experts and drivers. The final conclusion is that the present selection system through which the safety critical workers are being staffed, without any rigorous screening mechanisms cannot but have some limitations. So, an overall restructuring for aptitude management system needs to be done in order for us to advance to the position of upper-class railway country.

A rectangular test section is devised by assuming two dimensional melting of a solid phase change material heated from two sides which are maintained at constant temperature and allowing a free expansion due to density difference between solid and liquid. The timewise melting shape is recorded photographically by the shadow graph method for several experimental conditions. The analysis shows that the melting process consists of four regimes. At first, the pure conduction heat transfer is dominant, and as time goes by natural convection grows and plays a role greatly. Experiments are carried out varying not only the wall temperature but height of the wall. Each effect of them on the melting process is obtained in the form of combination of dimensionless parameters, $Ste^{0.8}\;FoRa^{0.2}$. An algebraic correlation is suggested, which predicts the melted fraction well.

Gas pipelines in bridges, roads and subway construction sections can undergo abrupt stress and vibration changes. To protect human life from any gas leakage accidents induced by the abrupt stress and vibration, the gas pipeline system needs to be continuously monitored. The estimation method of pipeline stress using MEMS wireless tilt sensor has been developed and its validity has been evaluated using a lab test bench.
