A modified method for the analysis of short fatigue crack growth has been presented, and calculations based upon the modified method are compared with experimental results for S45C carbon steel. It is also shown that the modified method is in good agreement with experimental data. The proposed equation for the fatigue crack growth rates includes a material constant which relates the threshold level to the endurance limit, a correction for elastic-plastic behaviour and a means for dealing with the effects of crack closure. In this study one of the modifications is to substitute the Forman' s elastic expression of the stress intensity factor range into the geometrical factor The other is a consideration of the bending effect which is developed from the moment caused by the eccentric cross sectional geometry as the crack grows. Thus, this method is useful for residual life prediction of the mechanical structures as well as the welding structures.

It is actually impossible to model and store all objects which exist in real home environment into robot's database in advance. To resolve this problem, this paper proposes new object modeling method that can be available for robot self-modeling, which is capable of estimating whole model's shape from partial surface data using Generic Model. And this whole produce is conducted to cylindrical objects like cup, bottles and cans which can be easily found at indoor environment. The detailed process is firstly we obtain cylinder's initial principle axis using points coordinates and normal vectors from object's surface after we separate cylindrical object from 3D image. This 3D image is obtained from 3D sensor. And second, we compensate errors in the principle axis repeatedly. Then finally, we do modeling whole cylindrical object using cross sectional principal axis and its radius To show the feasibility of the algorithm, We implemented it and evaluated its accuracy.

본 논문에서는 실 시공 중인 PSC 교량에 대하여 풍하중에 의한 상시 진동 계측 자료을 기반으로, 교량의 동특성(고유진동수, 모드형상)을 추정하였으며, 이를 바탕으로 대상 교량의 탄성계수를 추정하여 정적 계측을 통한 탄성계수 결과와 비교하였다. 본 논문에서 사용한 동특성 추정 기법은, 대표적인 주파수 영역 해석 방법인 Frequency Domain Decomposition(FDD) 방법과 시간영역 해석 방법인 Stochastic Subspace Identification(SSI) 방법을 이용하였다. 탄성계수 추정은 유한요소모델과 계측 결과를 이용하여 두 개의 결과 차이가 수렴하도록 하는 반복 계산을 통해 탄성계수를 추정하였다. 우선, 탄성계수 추정 기법의 검증을 위해, 수치 해석을 통하여 그 기법을 검증하였으며, 해석 결과 정확한 탄성계수값을 추정하였으며, 이를 통해 본 논문에서 적용한 탄성계수 추정법에 대한 신뢰도를 확인하였다. 이를 바탕으로 사용된 추정 기법을 실 교량에 적용하기 위해 실제 상시 진동 계측 값을 바탕으로 실교량의 동특성 및 탄성계수를 추정하였다. FDD 및 SSI 기법을 통한 모드 해석 결과, 두 기법 모두 유사한 결과를 나타내어 FDD 및 SSI 두 방법에 대한 결과의 신뢰도를 확인 할 수 있었다. 추정 탄성계수 값은 거더 단면내 설치한 응력계 및 변형률계를 통한 계측 결과값의 범위 내에 있음을 확인하였다. 따라서 본 논문에서 적용한 교량의 상시 진동 데이터를 바탕으로 한동특성 및 탄성계수 추정법이 구조물의 대략적인 탄성계수 및 이에 따른 구조물의 전체적인 건전도를 파악하는데 도움이 되리라 생각된다.

This paper discusses the feasibility of ultrasonic C-scan technique for nondestructive evaluation of spot weld quality. Ultrasonic evaluation for spot weld quality was performed by immersion method with the mechanical and the electronic scanning of point-focussed ultrasonic beam(25 MHz). For the sake of the approach to the quantitative measurement of nugget diameter and the discrimination of the corona bond from nugget, preliminary infinitesimal gap experiment by newton ring is tried in order to set up the optimum ultrasonic test condition. Ultrasonic image data obtained were confirmed and compared by optical microscope and SAM(Scanning Acoustic Microscope) observation of the spot-weld cross section. The results show that the nugget diameter can be measured with the accuracy of 1.0mm, and voids included in nugget can be detected to $10{\mu}m$ extent with simplicity and accuracy. Finally, it was found that it is necessary to make a profound study of definite discrimination of corona bond from nugget and the approach of quantitative evaluation of nugget diameter by utilizing the various image processing techniques.

MFL(magnetic flux leakage) inspection is a general method of non-destructive evaluation(NDE) of underground gas pipelines. Pipelines are magnetized by permanent magnets when MFL PIG(pipeline inspection gauge) gets through them. If defects or corrosions exist in pipelines, effective thickness is changed and thus variation of leakage flux occurs. The leakage flux signals detected by hall-sensors are analyzed to characterize defect's geometries such as length, width, depth, and so on. This paper presents several methods for estimating defect's length using MFL signals and their performances are compared for real defects carved in KOGAS pipeline simulation facility. It is found that 80% and 90% of minimum values for axial and peak values for radial signals respectively show the best performance in the point of length estimation error.

수질모델링은 제한된 공간에서 실측된 자료를 바탕으로 임의지점에서의 수질을 예측하는 것으로서 수체로 유입되는 오염원의 변화에 대한 수질의 변화를 예측, 장래 개발계획 및 수질정책에 대한 영향평가 등에 활용될 수 있다. 하천 및 호소로 유입되는 오염물질을 통제하고 과학적으로 관리하기 위해서는 수질모델링 과정을 정확히 이해하고 관련모델을 적절히 적용하여야 한다. 최근 수질오염총량제가 시행되고 있는 시점에서 지자체간 갈등을 줄이고 지역의 균형발전을 위해서는 합리적이고 과학적인 수질모델링 과정이 필요하다. 따라서 본 연구에서는 금강 수계 미호천의 지류인 보강천을 대상으로 QUAL2E 하천수질모형을 구축함으로써 해당 수계에 인접한 지자체들이 원활이 수질오염총량관리제도를 시행할 수 있게 정확하고 합리적인 수질예측 결과를 제시하고자 한다. 본 연구에서는 QUAL2E 하천수질모형을 구축하기 위해서 유량자료는 2007년 10월부터 12월까지 총 8회에 걸쳐 측정한 유량 데이터를 이용하였고 수리계수는 보강천 하천정비기본계획(건설교통부, 1991)에 실려있는 하천단면 자료를 이용한 HEC-RAS 수리모형을 이용하여 산정하였다. 하천 수질 자료는 2007년 10월부터 12월까지 총 8회에 걸쳐 유량과 함께 측정한 수질자료를 이용하였고 유달계수는 S. R. HA and M. S. Bae(2003, 2004, 2005, 2006), 박정하 등(2007)이 제안한 방법을 이용하여 산정하였다. 분석 결과, 보강천에 영향을 미치는 지자체는 증평군, 진천군, 괴산군, 음성군이며 그 중 유역면적을 많이 차지하고 있는 증평군과 진천군의 영향이 큰 것으로 나타났고, 미호천 하류에 위치한 미호B 목표수질관리지점의 목표수질인 4.3 mg/L BOD를 만족하는 것으로 분석되었다.

In Rapid Prototyping process, the time required to build multiple prototype parts can be reduced by packing several parts optimally in a work volume. Interactive arrangement of the multiple parts is a tedious process and does not guarantee the optimal placement of all the parts. In this case, packing is a kind of 3-D nesting problem because parts are represented by STL files with 3-D information. 3-D nesting is well known to be a problem requiring an intense computation and an efficient algorithm to solve the problem is still under investigation. This paper proposes that packing 3-D parts can be simplified into a 2-D irregular polygon nesting problem by using the characteristic of rapid prototyping process that the process uses 2-dimensional slicing data of the parts and that slice of the STL parts are composed of polygons. Our algorithm uses no-fit-polygon (NFP) to place each slice without overlapping other slices in the same z-level. The allowable position of one part at a fixed orientation for given parts already packed can be determined by obtaining the union of all NFP's that are obtained from each slice of the part. Genetic algorithm is used to determine the order of parts to be placed and orientations of each part for the optimal packing. Optimal orientation of a part is determined while rotating it about the axis normal to the slice by finite angles and flipping upside down. This algorithm can be applied to any rapid prototyping process that does not need support structures.

As high rise buildings with 100 or more stories are being constructed, it is inevitable to use high performance materials including high performance concrete. What is most important in high performance concrete is extremely high strength in order to reduce the section of members in high rise buildings. During the last several years, there have been active researches on Ultra high strength concrete. While these researches have been mostly focused on strength development, however, other accompanying physical properties have not been studied sufficiently. Thus, the present study purposed to obtain and analyze data on the physical mechanical properties of Ultra high strength concrete through experiments and to use the results as basic information on required performance of concrete used in high rise buildings.

It is important to identify the interaction of genes about human disease and characteristic value. Many studies as like logistic analysis, have associated being pursued, but, previous methods did not consider the sub-group of the genotypes. So, QTL interactions and the GMM (genotype matrix mapping) have been developed. In this study, we detect the superior genotype combination to have an impact on economic traits of Korean cattle based on the study over GMM method. Thus, we identified interaction effects of single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) responsible for average daily gain(ADG), marbling score (MS), carcass cold weight (CWT), longissimus muscle dorsiarea (LMA) using GMM method. In addition, we examine significance of the major genotype combination selected by implementing permutation test of the F-measure which was not obtained by Sachiko et al.
