In this work, the behavior of vibratory hub loads induced due to the uncertainties of composite material properties for each of the participating rotor blades is investigated. The random material properties of composites available from the existing experimental data are processed by using the Monte-Carlo simulation technique to obtain the stochastic distribution of sectional stiffnesses of composite blades. The coefficients of variation (standard deviation divided by the mean) obtained from the sectional stiffness constants are used as an input to the comprehensive aeroelastic analysis code that can evaluate the hub loads of a rotor system. It is found that the uncertainty effects of composite material properties inevitably bring a dissimilarity to the rotor system. The influence of hub vibration response with respect to the individual stiffness (flatwise bending, chordwise bending and torsion) changes is also identified.

홍수터에 식재된 수목에 의한 운동량 교환은 흐름의 추가적인 흐름저항으로 작용한다. 따라서 수목으로 인한 통수능의 감소로 부분적인 유속 상승이 발생하기도 하지만, 전반적으로 평균유속이 감소하며 수위는 상승하게 된다. 실무적 사용목적으로 홍수터 수목의 저항은 통합 매개변수인 합성조도계수가 사용되고 있으나, 정량적인 조도계수의 추정은 매우 어려운 문제이다. 본 연구에서는 경험적으로 추정되는 비정량적 합성조도 계수의 한계를 극복하고, 실무적으로 사용이 용이하도록 수목에 의한 흐름저항 항을 분리한 1차원 상류이송 음해기법이 개발되었다. 개발된 기법의 평가를 위하여 균일한 단면에서 수행된 수리실험에 적용하였으며, 다양한 유량규모 및 식재조건에서 제안된 기법의 적용성 및 정확성을 확인하였다. 불규칙한 단면형상을 가진 실제 하천의 홍수터에 식재된 수목군의 경우를 가정하여 1/25 정상축척의 수리실험을 실시하였고, 100년 빈도 홍수량에서 수목식재 전후의 실측결과를 개발된 수치기법으로 계산하여 비교하였다. 개발된 기법은 모든 경우에서 사용자의 주관적인 판단 없이 정확하면서 안정적인 해를 제공하였으므로, 흐름의 2차원 효과가 상쇄될 수 있는 광폭의 자연하천에서 수목의 식재기준 분석을 위한 대안으로 사용될 수 있을 것이다.

In the present study, a beach survey such as sand sizes, swim zone widths, and slopes of swash zone has been accomplished for 39 beaches along the Gangwon coastline. The data analysis presents that the swim zone width has a strong correlation with the sand size, showing that the swim zone width is reversely proportional to the 1.1 power of a grain size. The profile factor A has been analyzed using the beach profile form of $h=Ay^{2/3}$, where A was resulted to be proportional to the 0.77 power of a gram size.

A numerical analysis of cable-stayed bridge is conducted to determine optimum longitudinal modulus of elasticity which represents the boundary condition between the tower and main girder. The effect of longitudinal modulus of elasticity is investigated for different loading condition (live load, wind load, seismic load), respectively. There are significant changes in the member forces as variations of longitudinal modulus of elasticity, such as, $k_h$=e=100tonf/m/bearing (live load), $k_h$=e=1000tonf/m/bearing (seismic load), However, the wind loads do not affect member forces. The optimum longitudinal modulus of elasticity is determined from considering minimum member forces in the numerical analysis results.

본 연구에서는 유역 특성 인자와 지점 유량-유사량 관계식의 상관성 분석을 하였다. 대상 지점은 군남, 청미(이상 한강 유역), 향석, 동문, 선산, 동촌, 개진2(이상 낙동강 유역), 회덕, 합강(이상 금강 유역), 선암, 남평(이상 영산강 유역)을 선정하였다. 대상 지점의 상류에 댐이 있을 경우 유량-유사량 관계식이 왜곡될 가능성이 있기 때문에 이상 지점은 상류에 댐이 없는 곳으로 선정되었다. 이들 지점을 출구로 하는 유역을 정의하고 각 유역의 형상계수, 수면 폭, 단면적, 하천 총 길이 등을 조사하여 유량-유사량 관계식과 비교하였다. 분석 결과 수면 폭, 단면적, 하천 총 길이가 증가할수록 관계식의 계수는 감소하는 경향을 나타냈고 지수는 증가하는 형태를 나타내는 것을 알 수 있었다. 한편, 형상계수는 뚜렷한 상관관계를 나타내지 않았다. 유량-유사량의 경향성을 파악하기 위해 기존의 측정성과와 비교 분석하고자 하였다. 비교 분석한 결과 대부분 유사한 특성과 경향성을 나타내었으나 일부 다른 특성을 보인 지점도 존재하였다. 본 연구는 특정 지점의 유량-유사량 관계가 유역의 지형 특성에 영향을 받는 다는 것을 시사하는 초기 연구로 향후 추가 연구를 통해 그 영향을 규명할 필요성을 보여준다.

The aim of this study is to evaluate the differences of ejection fraction of left ventricle through the quantitative analysis of diastolic and systolic volumes according to slices selected using cardiac MR imaging. A total of 12 volunteers (7 normal, 1 myocardium bridge, and 4 arrhythmia) underwent cardiac MRI on a MR scanner(Magnetom Trio, Siemens, Germany). Ejection fractions for quantitative analysis were calculated at single slice of center of left ventricle, 3, 5, and 6-7 slices extending from the center of left ventricle. Average values were analyzed for evaluating differences of ejection fraction according to the number of slices selected. Mean value of normal person of ejection fraction were 67.14% at single slice of center of left ventricle, 66.24% at 3 slices, 65.63% at 5 slices, and 65.29% at 6-7 slices. While ejection fraction obtained from a patient with 61.74% at single slice of center of left ventricle, 60.92% at 3 slices, 60.89% at 5 slices, and 61.89% at 6-7 slices. There was no significant differences by the number of slices selected. This study demonstrates that ejection fraction obtained from single slice of center of left ventricle may represent a optimum parameter for cardiac function, instead of the value calculated on the variable slices selected.

This paper presents a beam element capable of conducting material and geometric nonlinear analysis for applications requiring the ultimate behavioral analysis of structures with composite cross-sections. The element formulation is based on co-rotational kinematics to simulate geometrically nonlinear behaviors, and it uses the fiber section method to calculate the stiffness and internal forces of the element. The proposed element was implemented using an in-house numerical program in which an arc-length method was adopted to trace severe nonlinear responses(such as snap-through or snapback), as well as ductile behavior after the peak load. To verify the proposed method of element formulation and the accuracy of the program that was used to employ the element, several numerical studies were conducted and the results from these numerical models were compared with those of three-dimensional continuum models and previous studies, to demonstrate the accuracy and computational efficiency of the element. Additionally, by evaluating an example case of a frame structure with a composite member, the effects of differences between composite material properties such as the elastic modulus ratio and strength ratio were analyzed. It was found that increasing the elastic modulus of the external layer of a composite cross-section caused quasi-brittle behavior, while similar responses of the composite structure to those of homogeneous and linear materials were shown to increase the yield strength of the external layer.

Several design methods from overseas are employed without considering different conditions such as material properties, climate, and traffic condition in this country. Therefore, there are limitations in application. Therefore, new pavement analysis system which is able to design a pavement efficiently and economically should be set up. In this study, 243 probable sections are classified depending on values of layer thickness and elastic modulus, and the effect of load types for the probable sections are analyzed. The section showing larger load distribution is chosen for analysis. As a result of sensitivity, a layer thickness has more influence on pavement than an elastic modulus does. The stress distribution of FWD test load is larger than that of circular load. This study compares outputs between nonlinear elastic model and linear elastic model. Based on the result, this study finds nonlinear elastic model considering stress condition in the ground is recommended for subbase.

The cross-sectional shape factor is used worldwide to evaluate the scientific performance of fire-resistant structures. In South Korea, however, a system for applying a cross-sectional shape factor has not been arranged and circular or rectangular steel pipes are commonly used for large-scale steel frame buildings. On the other hand, coating material-spray steel beams and pillars that have received the certification of a fire-resistant structure from recognized organizations are mostly limited to a H-beam. A H-beam is granted a wide range of certifications without size limitations from a non-loading performance test with test standards based on the relevant provisions. Other types of steel pipe are to be certified for fireresistance according to shape. In this study, a cross-sectional shape factor was used to propose standard testing specifications for the application of coating material-sprayed circular and rectangular steel pipes, eventually to set the scope of certification for reasonable fire-resistant structures.

The segment lining design for shield tunnel is generally carried out by using the beam-spring model and the induced member forces from the model are strongly influenced by the components of the model such as imposed load, coefficient of subgrade reaction, location of segment joint and its stiffness. The structural models and stiffness of its connection part found used in abroad design cases is usually obtained as it is for the domestic design of segment of shield tunnel. Those models and stiffness in existing design cases are conventionally applied to a new tunnel design without any suitability review for the project. In this study, the application method of base components of the model such as the coefficient of subgrade reaction and modelling method to the segment lining design was suggested by carrying out the comparative study of the base elements for the member forces estimation of segment lining of shield tunnel.
