A number of experiments were performed to investigate the punching shear strength of flat plate-column connections. According to the experiments, the punching shear strength varies significantly with design parameters such as the column size of the connection, reinforcement ratio, and boundary condition. However, current design methods do not properly address the effects of such design parameters. In the present study, a theoratical approach using Rankine's failure cirterion was attempted to define the failure mechanism of the punching shear According to the study, the failure mechanism can be classified into the compression-controlled and the tension-controlled, depending on the amount of bottom re-bars placed at the connection, and the punching shear strength is also significantly affected by the flexural damage of slab. Based on the finding, a new strength model of punching shear was developed, and verified by the comparisons with existing experiments and nonlinear finite element analyses. The comparisons show that the proposed strength model addressing the effects of various design parameters can predict accurately the punching shear strength, compared to the existing strength models.

2-D shape descriptors, which are vectors representing characteristics of shapes, enable comparison and classification of shapes and are mainly applied to image and 3-D model retrieval. Existing descriptors have limitations that they only describe shapes of single closed contours or lack in precision, making it difficult to be applied to shapes with multiple contours. Therefore, in this paper, we propose a new shape descriptor called Multi-Curvature-Scale Space that can be applied to shapes with multiple contours. Specifically, we represent the topology of the sub-contours in the multi-contour along with Curvature-Scale Space descriptors to represent the shapes of each sub-contours. Also, by allowing the weight of each component to be controlled when computing the distance between descriptors the weight, we deal with ambiguities in measuring similarity between shapes. Results of various experiments that prove the effectiveness of proposed descriptor are presented.

A method for elasto-plastic analysis of grillages is proposed in this investigation. An effort to construct the stiffness matrix of the member with bending and torsional springs attached at both ends is made in this work to make each member of grillage behave elasto-plastically. A related computer program EPAG for elasto-plastic analysis of grillages is also developed. The characters of this program in comparison with existing methods are as fellows; grillage with arbitrary geometry can be analysed, collapse load is applied in one step instead of incremental procedure, unloading can be considered, and analysis results such as applied loads, member end forces and joint displacements are also obtained when individual plastic hinge is formed. For verification of performanse of the EPAG, illustrating examples are solved and compared with the results of specified literlatures.

In this study, we formulate an acoustical topology optimization problem to optimally design a partition layout inside the expansion chamber of a muffler. The lower-limit insertion loss value at a target frequency is constrained, and the partition volume is selected as an object function. In this study, we calculate the insertion loss outside the duct, while to determine the noise-attenuation performance, we use the insertion loss value calculated inside the duct or transmission loss value obtained in a previous study. We employ the finite-element model for acoustical analysis, and we determine the transmission of an incident acoustic wave through each finite element using the functions of design variables that change continuously between "0" and "1." The rigid body elements, which totally reflect incident waves, build up partitions. Finally, we compare optimal topologies that depend on the target frequency and the allowed lower-limit value of insertion loss.

Laminate structures are used in the automobile, aerospace, and display industries. The advantages of fiber metal laminates are well known. Fiber metal laminates are useful for reducing the weight and improving impact resistance . However, currently, the mechanical properties of fiber metal laminates are not derived. In this paper, we use thickness as a factor for comparing the properties of laminates of various thickness combinations. The properties fiber metal laminates are analyzed using design of experiments. In addition, the finite element method is used to analyze elastic and plastic strains of fiber metal laminates and aluminum plates. The final goal of this paper is to find a suitable finite element model of fiber metal laminates under bending.

This paper presents the channel analysis considering power distribution network(PDN) system of PCB. For achieve the target PDN system we proposed the useful design approach for acquiring the characteristic target of power distribution network in overall frequency ranges. The proposed method is based on the hierarchical approach related to frequency ranges and the path-based equivalent circuit model to consider the interference of the current paths between the decoupling capacitors and the board through it is a lumped model for fast and easy calculation, experimental results show that the proposed model is almost as precise as the numerical analysis. The analysis of PDN system shows that although the effective inductance of package dominatly affects the power noise and the signal transfer through data channel, the board PDNs also can not be neglected for achieving the accurate channel signaling. Therefore, we must design concurrently the chip, package, and board from the initial spec design of high speed digital system.

The quality of the radar and profiler network was estimated to forecast difficult meteorological situations. A network of UHF Doppler wind profilers and Doppler weather radars have been deployed all over the Korean Peninsular, with dense spatial resolution between instruments. The radar network allows to retrieve the three dimensional dynamics and to analyze the numerical model outputs at small and meso scales. This work has seldom been performed in any other place of the world, with such a high resolution. The wind field from radar network is a good agreement with the background wind fields based on the numerical modeling. This study will be helpful to forecast severe weathers as well as local meteorological phenomena.

대용량 SMES(Superconducting Magnetic Energy Storage)를 제작하기 위해서는 높은 자장특성을 가고 있는 2세대 HTS(High-Temperature Superconductor) 선재를 사용하는 것이 효율적이다. SMES의 에너지밀도를 높이기 위해서는 선재에 많은 전류를 흘려야 하는데, 수직자기장이 커지면 임계전류가 작아지는 2세대 HTS 선재의 특성상 토로이드형태의 SMES가 유리하다. SMES를 설계하기 전에 선재의 사용량을 줄이고 체적을 줄이기 위해서 정확한 설계와 평가가 필요하다. 유한요소법을 사용한 상용프로그램을 이용하여 쉽게 해석할 수 있으나 토로이드 형태의 SMES는 대칭성의 문제로 3차원 해석을 해야만 한다. 그러나 2차원 해석에 비해 여러 가지 제약조건이 따르며 해석 시간이 많이 소요된다. 본 논문에서는 이러한 문제점을 해결하기 위해 분석적이고 통계적으로 고온 초전도 코일에서 작용하는 최대 수직자장을 결정하는데 이해하기 쉽고 효율적으로 계산하는 방법을 제시했다. 본 논문에서는 싱글펜케이크코일의 크기에 따른 최대 자장값을 계산하였고 싱글펜케이크코일이 토로이드형태로 배치된 토로이드 모델에서 주변코일이 싱글펜케이크코일의 미드포인트에 미치는 자장값을 계산하여 두 계산값을 합하는 방식으로 최대 자기장을 계산하였다. 이 방법은 현저한 시간단축과 효율적인 설계를 할 수 있는 새로운 계산 방법으로 기존 FEM을 사용해 걸리는 시간에 비해 1/1000정도의 시간단축을 할 수 있었다.

To satisfy the operational requirements of surveillance radar and the operational concept of a ship combat system, an active-array-type antenna was designed using solid-state transmitters and receivers. The arrangement of the constituent electronic components of the antenna system, considerably large in size, and therefore, the antenna needs to be housed in a box. The rotational antenna system installed on a ship mast is installed in a sealed housing to protect the interior equipment from environmental conditions. The outer shape of the housing is that the antenna should be capable of rotating normally despite strong winds. Furthermore, in recent times, designs with low radar cross section (RCS) have attracted attention from the viewpoint of improving the stealth of the ship. In this light, four types of models are proposed for the outer shape design of the antenna system, and they are investigated from the viewpoint of low RCS design as well as wind load.
