This paper presents an efficient contact detection algorithm for the plane elastostatic contact problem of the boundary element method(BEM). The data structures of the boundary element method are dissected to develop an efficient contact detection algorithm. This algorithm is consists of three parts as global searching, local searching and contact relation setting to reflect the corner node problem. Contact master and slave type elements are used in global searching step and quad-tree is selected as the spatial decomposition method in local searching step. To set up contact relation equations, global contact searching is conducted at node level and local searching is performed at element level. To verify the efficiency of the proposed contact detection algorithm of BEM, numerical example is presented.

본 논문에서는 블록 삼각구조를 갖는 다변수 비선형 시스템의 상태 관측기의 설계 문제를 다룬다. 이를 위해 단일 입출력 삼각구조 시스템에 대한 기존의 설계 기법을 다변수 시스템으로 확장한다. 특히, 제안한 관측기의 이득은 시스템의 선형 부분뿐만 아니라 비선형성을 기반으로 설계되어지기 때문에 기존의 고이득 관측기에 비해 과도응답 특성을 개선한다. 또한 오차방정식에 대한 유사 변화을 이용하여 제안한 관측기가 전역 지수적 수렴성을 보임을 증명한다. 마지막으로, 시뮬레이션 예제를 통해 본 논문에서 제안한 설계 기법의 타당성을 입증한다.

이 논문은 탄성지반위에 놓인 원호형 곡선보의 자유진동에 관한 연구이다. 회전관성 및 전단변형을 고려하여 두 개의 매개변수로 표현되는 탄성지반위에 놓인 원호형 곡선보의 자유진동을 지배하는 미분방정식을 유도하고, 이를 수치적분기법과 시행착오적 행렬값탐사법이 결합된 수치해석기법으로 해석하였다. 회전-회전, 회전-고정 및 고정-고정의 단부조건을 갖는 곡선보의 최저차모드 3개의 고유진동수를 산출하였다. 곡선보의 수평높이 지간길이비, Winkler 지반계수, 전단지반계수에 따른 고유진동수 변화를 분석하였으며, 회전관성 및 전단변형의 영향을 고찰하였다.

드론이나 이동형 촬영장비에 장착된 카메라로부터 깨끗하고 안정된 영상을 획득하기 위해서는 짐벌시스템의 안정화기 설계가 필요하다. 짐벌시스템은 카메라 모듈을 지지하는 구조와 외부로 부터의 진동을 차단하면서 정확한 각도를 추종하는 안정화기로 구성된다. 이동형 촬영장비나, 비행중인 드론에는 매우 다양한 주파수 성분의 진동이 발생되는데, 이러한 진동을 제어하기 위하여 6자유도 운동방정식을 유도하고, 이 중에서 본 논문에서는 일반적으로 rolling, pitching, yawing 운동에 대해서는 PID 제어기를 사용하여 안정화를 제어하기만, 카메라종류나 짐벌시스템 구조가 바뀔 때 마다 PID 파라미터를 변경해야 되는 경우가 빈번하다. 본 논문에서는 이런 문제점을 개선하기 새로이 제기된 제어 기법인 지적 PID(intelligent PID) 제어를 통하여 진동제어를 수행하여 짐벌시스템의 안정화를 위한 제어기법을 제안하고자 한다.

With widespread use of information technologies, information privacy issues have been gaining more attention by not only the public but also researchers. The number of studies on the issues has been increasing exponentially, which makes incomprehensible the whole picture of research outcome. Thus, it is necessary to conduct a systematic examination of past research. This study developed two competing models with four essential constructs in information privacy research and empirically tested the models with data obtained from previous studies. This study employed a quantitative meta-analysis method called TSSEM. It is one of MASEM methods in which structural equation modeling and meta-analysis are integrated. The analysis results indicated that risk-centric model exhibited much better model fits than those of concern-centric model. This study implies that traditional concern-centric model should be questioned it's explanatory power of the model and researchers may consider alternative risk-centric model to explain user's intention to provide privacy information.

This paper provides a novel extended Moving Least Squares(MLS) difference method for the potential problem with weak and strong discontinuities. The conventional MLS difference method is enhanced with jump functions such as step function, wedge function and scissors function to model discontinuities in the solution and the derivative fields. When discretizing the governing equations, additional unknowns are not yielded because the jump functions are decided from the known interface condition. The Poisson type PDE's are discretized by the difference equations constructed on nodes. The system of equations built up by assembling the difference equations are directly solved, which is very efficient. Numerical examples show the excellence of the proposed numerical method. The method is expected to be applied to various discontinuity related problems such as crack problem, moving boundary problem and interaction problems.

Using a level set method and topological derivatives, a topological shape optimization method that is independent of an initial design is developed for linearly elastic structures. In the level set method, the initial domain is kept fixed and its boundary is represented by an implicit moving boundary embedded in the level set function, which facilitates to handle complicated topological shape changes. The "Hamilton-Jacobi(H-J)" equation and computationally robust numerical technique of "up-wind scheme" lead the initial implicit boundary to an optimal one according to the normal velocity field while minimizing the objective function of compliance and satisfying the constraint of allowable volume. Based on the asymptotic regularization concept, the topological derivative is considered as the limit of shape derivative as the radius of hole approaches to zero. The required velocity field to update the H-J equation is determined from the descent direction of Lagrangian derived from optimality conditions. It turns out that the initial holes are not required to get the optimal result since the developed method can create holes whenever and wherever necessary using indicators obtained from the topological derivatives. It is demonstrated that the proper choice of control parameters for nucleation is crucial for efficient optimization process.

The initiation and growth processes of cyclic ice body in porous systems are affected by the thermo-physical and mass transport properties, as well as gradients of temperature and chemical potentials. Furthermore, the diffusivity of deicing chemicals shows significantly higher value under cyclic freeze-thaw conditions. Consequently, the disintegration of concrete structures is aggravated at marine environments, higher altitudes, and northern areas. However, the properties of cyclic freeze-thaw with crack growth and the deterioration by the accumulated damages are hard to identify in tests. In order to predict the accumulated damages by cyclic freeze-thaw, a regression analysis by the response surface method (RSM) is used. The important parameters for cyclic freeze-thawdeterioration of concrete structures, such as water to cement ratio, entrained air pores, and the number of cycles of freezing and thawing, are used to compose the limit state function. The regression equation fitted to the important deterioration criteria, such as accumulated plastic deformation, relative dynamic modulus, or equivalent plastic deformations, were used as the probabilistic evaluations of performance for the degraded structural resistance. The predicted results of relative dynamic modulus and residual strains after 300 cycles of freeze-thaw show very good agreements with the experimental results. The RSM result can be used to predict the probability of occurrence for designer specified critical values. Therefore, it is possible to evaluate the life cycle management of concrete structures considering the accumulated damages due to the cyclic freeze-thaw using the proposed prediction method.

LRT(Light Rail Transit), which has many merits compared with Heavy Rail Transit, is an effective public transport. Therefore, many local governments are pushing ahead with LRT. Busan had already adopted LRT(AGT)s like Busan Subway Line 4(Bansong Route) and Busan Gimhae Light Rail Transit(BGLRT) domestically for the first time. This study analyzes user satisfaction about the services of adopted LRTs and set right priorities of remeding their shortcomings from the user's perspective. In this paper, we surveyed safety consciousness and services satisfaction of LRT(BGLRT) users, and made two User Satisfaction Models of each LRT(BGLRT and Bansong Route) using Structural Equation Model. With established User Satisfaction Models(BGLRT Model and Bansong Route Model), we compared BGLRT and Bansong Route. Finally we found the measures and priorities for the improvements of LRT's services in the aspect of LRT users.
