TNT was blasted on the surface of steel plates and concrete block to study the effect of separation distance between object and charge. The equation of US Army Corps of Engineers turned out to be rather conservative. Effect of separation distance is larger for steel plate than concrete block. Steel plate cannot be cut by standard or more charge in the case of 2 cm separation while the concrete block can be crushed with the same distance.

In this paper we develop an approximation formalism for the queue length distribution of general queueing models. Our formalism is based on two steps of analytic approximation employing both the lower and upper bound techniques. It is favorable to a fast numerical calcuation for the queue length distribution of a superposition of a superposition of arbitary type traffic sources. In the application. M+ N D /M/1 is considered. The calculated result for queue length distribution measured by arriving or leaving customers show a good agreement with the direct simulation of the system. Especially, we demonstrate that our formula for M/M/1 is equivalent to the exact solution, while that D/M/1 is simplified in an analytic form.

This paper is in principle concerned with the reliability analysis and its based design of midship section against the ultimate bonding strength. Bulk carriers and oil tankers over 100m length are considered for this study. Target reliability indices are derived with the results of reliability analysis of the present ship models. Reliability-based structural design code formats are proposed for use in design of midship section of bulk carriers and oil tankers. The proposed design formats have been success fully applied to re-design of midship section of the present ship types and show the reasonable results. It has been found that the proposed code formats in this paper are useful for the re-deign of midship section of such ship types.

This paper presents the radiation rate formula due of a inclusion of a series capacitor and shunt inductor in a unit cell for the right/left-handed transmission line (RLH-TL). The equivalent circuit for a RLH unit cell considering radiation effects is presented and analyzed in terms of the Bloch impedance and dispersion diagram. It has been found that when two radiation rates are identical, the Blockimpedance reduces to the characteristic impedance of the host conventional RH-TL. Besides, design equations for a unit cell for a specific phase shift at a given frequency are provided. The method of realizing uniform excitation along the RLH-TL is also proposed for antenna applications.

The Clark unit hydrograph is a three parameter synthetic unit hydrograph procedure that can be used in flood hydrology. The present work is an attempt to estimate parameters of the Clark model in ungaged basin by means of relationships that provides for the hydrologic similarity. The time area concentration curve was determined by analytic method and the Clark model was generalized by being made dimensionless form. Calculation of the concentration time was made with the formula fractal concept used, and the storage coefficient was estimated by the empirical and regional equation. Evaluation on Dongok basin was performed to prove the validity of the proposed model. The derived hydrograph predicted the observed hydrograph fairly well.

This purpose of paper is to propose a European option pricing formula when the rate of return follows the leptokurtic distribution instead of normal. This distribution explains well the volatility smile and furthermore the option prices calculated under the leptokurtic distribution are shown to be closer to the market prices than those of Black-Scholes model. We make an estimation of the implied volatility and kurtosis to verify the fitness of the pricing formula that we propose here.

강우에 의해 발생되는 토양침식의 정도를 나타내는 강우침식인자의 산정공식은 미국에서 경험적인 방법으로 유도된 식이지만, 전 세계적으로 널리 활용되고 있다. 강우침식인자는 토양침식을 유발하는 호우사상의 지속기간 중에 발생한 총 강우에너지와 30분 최대 강우강도 값을 곱하여 호우사상별로 산정하게 되며, 이 값의 연간 총합이 연강우침식인자가 된다. 최근 강우침식인자에 대한 관심이 국내외적으로 고조되면서 많은 연구 산물이 학계에 보고되고 있다. 본 연구의 목적은 동일 기간, 동일 지점일지라도 연구자에 따라 강우침식인자 값이 달라지는 원인과 그 불확실성을 규명하기 위한 것이다. 이를 위하여 본 연구는 강우침식인자와 관련된 국내외 문헌연구를 토대로 연구방법에 따라 결과값이 달라지는 현상을 분석하고 이에 대한 대안을 제시하고자 한다. 연구결과, 강우침식인자 산정의 불확실성의 가장 큰 인자는 연구자가 사용하는 데이터로서, 5분 단위 이하의 강우자료를 사용하는 것과, 그 이상의 자료를 사용하는 것으로 구분할 수 있었다. 두 번째 중요한 인자는 유효 호우사상의 분류기준을 어떻게 적용하느냐에 있었다. 세 번째는 강우 에너지를 계산할 때 어떤 강우운동에너지식을 적용하는지에 따라 결과값이 달라지는 것을 알 수 있었다. 네 번째는 연구자가 어떤 프로그램을 이용하여 산정했느냐에 따라 차이가 발생할 수 있음을 알 수 있었다. 다섯 번째 지역단위 강우침식인자 산정시 어떤 공간분포 기법을 적용하느냐에 따라 결과값의 차이가 발생함을 알 수 있었다. 이를 바탕으로 본 연구에서는 국내에서 강우침식인자 산정시 연구자들이 적용할 수 있는 표준 계산 절차에 대해서 제안하였다.

In the case of single well pumping tests the storativities are generally overestimated. To compensate these errors, the effective wellbore radius should be introduced as a distance to an imaginary observation well in the time-drawdown analysis. Effective wellbore radius can be calculated through step drawdown tests or using skin factor equation. But both are of trial-and-error methods guessing real storativity values and, therefor, are difficult to apply to the field conditions. An equation was developed to estimate effective wellbore radius from storativity values obtained from pumping well data. For this study, a total of 136 time-drawdown data set were used to derive the equation. The effective wellbore radius were estimated first by changing them till the storativity values obtained from the pumping-well data match the ones based on the observation-well data. Then the equation was regressed from the relation between effective wellbore radius and the storativity values obtained from the pumping-well data. It is believed that the equation would be useful in estimating effective wellbore radius from the single well tests.

Various empirical formulas have been developed to describe the stability of breakwater armor stones. The Hudson formula is known to have needs to be refined in many ways. but it is most widely used because of its simplicity. The van der Meer formula is sometimes used for the cross-check, but it is not very popularly used due to its complexity and the uncertainty of the relevant parameters. Recently, on the other hand, Yoo(2003) proposed a formula of a simple form using a new non-dimensional number which is called 'action slope' (abbreviated as Yoo formula hereinafter). In this study, in order to provide coastal engineers with some idea of the use of these formulas, their accuracies were estimated by comparing with the experimental data reported by van der Meer in 1987 and 1988. It was found that the van der Meer formula showed the highest accuracy, while the Hudson formula of very low accuracy needed considered judgment on its use. On the other hand, the Yoo formula of slightly lower accuracy but simpler expression than the van der Meer formula seems to be able to be used in engineering practice if a slightly higher safety factor is taken.

The behavior of the concrete slabs-on-grade considering the horizontal resistance at the slab bottom, which exists due to the shear resistance of the foundation and the friction between the slab and the foundation, has been investigated when the slabs-on-grade are subjected to the vertical load. Analytical formulations have been developed to include the effect of the horizontal resistance at the slab bottom, and the solutions have been obtained in the transformed field domain using the Fourier transform. Finite element formulations have also been developed using the plate bending elements and the flat shell elements. The solutions from the analytical and numerical models have been compared and showed very good agreement. The sensitivity of the horizontal resistance to the stresses of the concrete slab has been investigated with various values of the slab thickness, elastic modulus, and vertical stiffness of the foundation. The analysis results show that the horizontal resistance at the plate bottom can significantly affect the stresses of the slab.
