Purpose: This paper is concerned with optimally designing accelerated degradation test (ADT) plans based on a gamma process for the degradation model. Methods: By minimizing the asymptotic variance of the MLE of the q-th quantile of the lifetime distribution at the use condition, the test stress levels and the proportion of test units allocated to each stress level are optimally determined. Results: The optimal plans of ADT are developed for various combination of parameters. In addition, a method for determining the sample size is developed, and sensitivity analysis procedures are illustrated with an example. Conclusion: It is important to optimally design ADT based on a gamma process under the condition that a degradation process should be always nonnegative and strictly increasing over time.

To disign and build a ultra-precision laboratory which has been required for high technology in many areas, the environmental parameters such as temperature, humidity,vibration and nosic are controlled precisely. To absorb the outside vibration, particular concrete blocks were designed and set under the laboratory. The inside room temperature were controlled in local area within .+-. 0.3 .deg. c. It was efficient to induce laminar flow in air conditioning system for the control of room temperature, humidity etc. The control conditions should be determined according to their specific purposes. Also, the control method will be different for their respective environmental conditions.

The objective of this work was to simulate lead frame etching characteristics to optimize the etching process, Characteristics such as the etching factor and uniformity were investigated for different actual operating conditions, including pressure, distance from the nozzle tip, pipe pitch, and feed speed. The correlation between the etching and spray characteristics was analyzed to develop the etching model. Spray characteristics obtained from an experiment using a phase Doppler anemometer system were then simulated using a Monte-Carlo technique, The etching process model was coded in the Java language, The spray and etching characteristics were correlated with each other and simulated results agreed well with the measured data for a lead frame etching process, The optimal operating parameters under various conditions were successfully determined.

This paper presents the nonlinear characteristics of the parametric resonance of a simply supported beam which is inextensible beam. For the beam model, the order-three expanded equation of motion has been determined in a form amenable to a perturbation treatment. The equation of motion is derived by a special Cosserat theory. The method of multiple scales is used to determine the equations that describe to the first-order modulation of the amplitude of simply supported beam. The stability and the bifurcation points of the system are investigated applying the frequency response function.

This paper presents a design method of synchronous generator excitation controller using self-tuning PID algorithm. Controller parameter is determined by using adaptive control theory in order to maintain optimal operation of generator under the various operating conditions. To determine the optimal parameter of controller. minimum variance algorithm using the recursive leastsquare(RLS) indentification method is adopted and the difference between the speed deviation with weighted factor and voltage deviation is used as the input signal of adaptive controller, which provides good damping and conversion characteristics. The results tested on a single machine infinite bus system verify that the proposed controller has better dynamic performances than conventional controller.

A novel experimental set-up allowing quantitative determination of the adsorption capacity of gas molecules on a surface under high-vacuum conditions is introduced. Using this system, the toluene adsorption capacities of various carbon nanostructures were determined. We found that for a give surface area, the adsorption capacities of toluene of multi-walled carbon nanotubes and nanodiamonds were higher than that of activated carbon, which is widely used as an adsorbent of volatile organic compounds. The adsorption of toluene was reversible at room temperature.

Under limited resources such as budgets and experts, it is essential to set promotion priorities for standardization work items on IPv6 (Internet Protocol version 6) multi-networking technologies. Opinions of domain experts are surveyed and analyzed utilizing a multi-criteria decision making tool, the Analytic Hierarchy Process (AHP). Weights of ten evaluation criteria are identified and applied to calculating importance degree of eight work items. According to descending order of importance degree, priorities of work items are determined. The processes and results of this study may provide not only an approach of setting promotion priorities for standardization work items but also a practical guide of implementing of a multi-criteria decision analysis.

In this study, the static and dynamic components of cutting resistance were measured with tool dynamometer (Swiss, pieso-electric type) when S45C, A1-alloy and brass were drilled under the some variable conditions. The results obtained are as follows; 1) The dynamic components of these cutting resistance are not related to the depth of drilled hole. 2) The static and dynamic components of cutting resistance are increased in accordance with the increase of feed and drill diameter. 3) The dynamic components of thrust force are increased in accordance with the increase of spindle speed. 4) The rate of the dynamic component to the static component is 0.3 .approx. 0.5 in torque, 0.1 .approx. 0.2 in thrust force. 5) The characteristic of the tool system is affected in dynamic component of cutting resistance, and the creasted frequency and amplitude of the chip are determined by the crilled materials. 6) The maximum amplitude of the dynamic component is increased proportionally in accordance with the feed rate and the spindle speed.

An automatic echelon feeder of brown rice was presented for quality inspection system using color image processing. A echelon feeder was developed with vibratory feeder and cylindrical indent singulator having oblique light. The vibratory feeder consisted of a hopper, electromagnetic vibrator and multichannel grooves and supply the grain sample to the singulator. The feeding performance such as feed rate, blocking frequency of the channel was dependent on the size of groove and vibration pattern. A cylindrical indent singulator consisted of a rotating cylinder, prisms and a tungsten-halogen light source. It delivered grain kernels under the camera in a echelon form and illuminate the kernels with oblique ray and ambient light. The size of the indents installed on the surface of the rotating cylinder was determined by the dimensions of the paddy and a small triangular prism was placed in each indent to apply $ 20^{\circ}$ oblique light to the grain kernel.

To enhance the reliability of distribution transformers in service and to reduce the cost of maintaining and replaceing these, the condition and life of those insulating system should be evaluated accurately and the time to replace should be determined economically. Since the transformer failures related to insulation failure indicates that the primary cause is normally mechanical failure of integrity due to loss of mechanical strength as a result of degradation, the tensile strength characteristics of paper during ageing under accelerated conditions in insulating oil and research trends for assessing the life of insulating paper were investigated.
