This study identifies the possibility of alignment discrepancies during mortar firing when using inactive fuzes, which make it impossible to visually observe impact points. To address this issue, we studied a quality assurance method for Sight Alignment after firing. To establish a baseline, we analyzed the pre-firing Sight Alignment and the impact group status during firing for 00 mortars and 000 shells. Based on this analysis, we derived the alignment position information range after firing for 36 mortars, distinguishing between 68% and 95% confidence interval. Finally, considering data characteristics, inspection time requirements, and non-conforming data, we selected the Sight Alignment range after firing based on the 95% confidence interval. This study is expected to contribute to the development of quality assurance methods for munitions by serving as an example of quality assurance in the mass production stage of mortars.

외국인 유학생이 꾸준히 증가함에 따라 정부는 ‘외국인 유학생 유치‧관 리 역량 인증제’를 시행하였다. 인증제는 외국인 유학생 유치 및 관리에 양적인 성장뿐만 아니라 질적인 성장에 목적을 두고 2012년 본격적으로 도입하였으며 현재는 ‘교육국제화역량 인증제’로 확대하여 실시되고 있 다. 이를 통해 교육의 질과 학생의 수준을 끌어올리고 있지만 인증제가 현실을 반영하지 못하는 부분이 있다. 이에 본고에서는 외국의 사례를 조사한 후 한국의 교육국제화역량 인증제가 어떻게 수정·보완되어 왔는 지 그동안의 변화 과정을 살펴보고 3주기 보완 체계가 진행 중인 현재의 평가 항목과 기준 내용의 보완점을 제언하였다. 제언의 내용은 크게 세 가지로 나누어 볼 수 있다. 먼저 불법체류율 산정 방식이다. 기존의 산정 방식은 모수와 분자의 조건을 동일하게 보았기 때문에 이를 악용하는 경 우도 있었다. 따라서 불법체류율 산정 방식을 수정해야 한다. 둘째, 학위 과정의 경우 공인 한국어능력 자격을 취득하지 않은 유학생 대상 한국어 강의에 대한 명확한 규정이 필요하며 구체적인 졸업 요건이 명시되어야 한다. 셋째, 어학연수과정의 학생수, 교원 자격증 수 등을 현장 상황을 파악하여 평가 기준을 높여야 한다.

Pulpose : Although diffusion tensor imaging (DTI) has been widely used for the quantitative analyses of the integrity of white matter in the brain in clinical and research fields, quality assurance (QA) for DTI has not been fully established. The purpose of this study suggests a QA guideline for DTI using the American College of Radiology (ACR) Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) head phantom. Materials and Methods : All experiments were performed using 1.5T and 3.0T scanners (InteraAchiva 1.5T and AchivaTx 3.0T; Philips Medical Systems, Netherlands) equipped with an 8-channel SENSE head coil. The standard axial SE T1-weighted MR images with 6, 15 and 32 directions of DTI were obtained using the standard scanning protocol “Phantom Test Guidance for the ACR MRI Accreditation Program” . Slice thickness and slice gap were set at 5 mm for standard axial SE T1 images and echo planar images, and then both images were compared. Reproducibility was tested with 7 repeat scans in 1.5T scanner and 10 repeat scans in 3.0T scanner. Between the scanning, the ACR MRI phantom was completely removed from coil and was repositioned for each new trial. Parameters for the QA protocol are shown in Table 1. The ACR MRI phantom was stored in the scanner room for at least 24 hours before an experiment, and the room temperature was measured before scanning for DTI. Results : There were statistically significant differences in the geometric accuracy between the 1.5T and 3.0T two scanners across all scan directions. The top-to-bottom diameters had a 11.3 mm error in 1.5T scanner and a 7.2 mm error in 3.0T scanner. Image intensity uniformity tests were significant in 6, 15, and 32 directions at 1.5T and 3.0T comparative analysis (p < 0.001). Additionally, percent signal-ghosting tests were significant in all directions, such as 6, 15 and 32 directions, in both 1.5T and 3.0T scanners (p < 0.001). The DTI images from 1.5T scanner had a ghosting ratio less than 0.025 at 1.5T scanner while 3.0T scanner had a ghosting ratio greater than 0.045. The low-contrast object detectability had a significant differences in 6, 15, 32 directions at 1.5T and 3.0T systems (p < 0.001). The DTI images from 1.5T system showed 2.85 spokes in 6 directions, 14.00 spokes in 15 directions, and 26.14 spokes in 32 directions. The DTI images from 3.0T system had 7.80 spokes in 6 directions, 32.20 spokes in 15 directions, and 37.30 spokes in 32 directions. Image distortion was significant in the anteriorposterior (AP) direction (p <0.001), but was not significant in right-left (RL) direction (p = 0.359). Image distortions in 1.5T scanner were 6.93 mm for the AP direction and 0.26 mm for the RL direction while the same for 3.0T system were 8.55 mm for the AP direction and 0.28 mm for the RL direction. For the FA and the ADC values, we acquired significant results in 6, 15, and 32 directions for 1.5T and 3.0T scanners (p < 0.001). The FA values were relatively lower for 3.0T system than for 1.5T system, and 32 directions for 3.0T scanner had the lowest value. The ADC values of 3.0T system were lower than those of 1.5T system, and 15 and 32 directions had the lowest values. Conclusion : This study is the first trial using the ACR MRI phantom that is easily accessible in most clinical MR centers. Also, the present study using the ACR MRI phantom suggests a QA method for DTI with high reproducibility and easy accessibility.

This paper will compare two instruments for quality assurance on the internationalization of higher education institutions: The Internationalization Quality Review Process (IQRP) and the International Education Quality Assurance System (IEQAS). Methodologies adopted were ethnography, hermeneutical phenomenology and the cross-cultural comparative approach. Findings show that IQRP was more comprehensive than IEQAS. Three domains -- the nature of the quality assurance, procedural aspect and rewards and sanctions -- were selected, contrasted, compared and analyzed. During the analysis of sanctions, a discernable concept, equity was derived from the IEQAS and an in-depth analysis was undertaken to reveal and interpret the nature of the meaning.

According as radiation therapy technique develops, standardization of radiation therapy has been complicated by the plan QA(Quality Assurance). However, plan QA tools are two type, OADT (opposite accumulation dose tool) and 3DADT (3 dimensional accumulation dose tool). OADT is not applied to evaluation of beam path. Therefore tolerance error of beam path will establish measurement value at OADT. Plan is six beam path, five irradiation field at each beam path. And beam path error is 0 degree, 0.2 degree, 0.4 degree, 0.6 degree, 0.6 degree, 0.8 degree. Plan QA accomplishes at OADT, 3DADT. The more path error increases, the more plan QA error increases. Tolerance error of OADT path is 0.357 using tolerance error of conventional plan QA. Henceforth plan QA using OADT will include beam path error. In addition, It will increase reliability through precise and various plan technique.

A prerequisite for improving the quality of a product is to enhance the quality of its parts supplied from outsourced enterprises. An enterprise certified by ISO 9001 Quality Management System is expected to develop their effective quality assurance system and maintain it through continuous control and improvement, thereby ensuring the good quality of products that they produce. However, it is reported that small and medium–sized enterprises certified by ISO 9001 have difficulty establishing an effective quality assurance system. This study aims to propose a new method of improving a quality assurance system that can be more effective in small and medium–sized enterprises. This study collectively considered requirements specified in several international standards on quality system and the results of expert group brainstorming to identify evaluation areas and items for assessing a quality assurance system. Based on these evaluation areas and items, a set of checklists for diagnosing and improving a quality assurance system was developed. In order to demonstrate the usefulness of the proposed method, this study applied it to ten small and medium-sized enterprises and could identify four approaches for improving their current quality assurance system. The presented improvement method, which consists of establishment of quality goals and quality innovation plan, defective products corrective activities, 4M and design change process, improvement of customer quality information management, is expected to be utilized as a useful tool for the enhancement of the quality assurance system of small and medium-sized enterprises.

To estimate weld quality of the resistance spot-welding, the acoustic emission features are investigated from the total acoustic emission signal at the single-spot weld. Typically, the resistance spot welding process consists of several stages: set-down of the electrodes, squeeze, current flow, forging, hold time, and lift-off. Various types of acoustic emission response corresponding to each stage can be separately analyzed by using back-propagation neural network classifier and wavelet transform technique. The presented machine learning results provide a validation for using back-propagation neural network and wavelet transform technique as a valuable insights into the resistance spot-welding process. Especially, a wavelet transform technique is demonstrated and the plots are very powerful in the recognition of the acoustic emission features
