In this study, structural analyses were conducted to analyze the performance of a bridge to which friction pendulum systems (FPSs) were applied using different friction models. A Coulomb friction model and a rate dependent friction model were constructed using the friction coefficient of a PVDF/MgO friction material to analyze the effect of different friction analysis models. The Coulomb friction model uses a single friction coefficient regardless of friction velocity, while the rate dependent friction model can reflect the change in the friction coefficient with friction velocity. Nonlinear time history and seismic fragility analyses were conducted to confirm responses of the bridge. The seismic responses of a deck and a column were used to evaluate the performance of the base isolated bridge, and a friction model that can effectively evaluate the performance of isolated bridges was analyzed.

반도체 양자점은 불연속적인 에너지준위의 특성 때문에 고전적인 빛과는 다른 단일광자를 방출하여 양자정보 처리과정에 기본 요소로써 사용 될 수 있다. III-Nitride (III-N) 반도체 물질은 III족 원소의 구성비를 조절하였을 때 밴드갭 에너지차이가 크므로 깊은 양자 우물을 만들 수 있으며 최근에는 기존에 연구되던 III-Arsenide 기반의 반도체 양자점과 다르게 상온 (300 K) 동작 가능한 단일광자 방출원이 개발되었다.[1] 또한 약한 split-off 에너지 때문에 양자점 모양에 작은 비대칭성만 존재해도 큰 선형편광도를 가질 수 있다. 하지만 III-N 반도체 양자점의 이러한 특성에도 불구하고 이종기판과의 격자상수 불일치에 따른 많은 threading dislocation, 압전효과에 의한 큰 내부전기장에 의해 발광 효율이 떨어지는 등의 문제가 있다. 이를 해결하기 위해 반도체 양자점을 3차원 구조체와 결합하여 threading dislocation 및 내부전기장을 줄이는 연구들이 진행되고 있다.[2] 본 연구에서는 선택적 영역 성장 방식을 통해 마이크로미터 크기를 가지는 피라미드 형태의 3차원 구조체를 이용, 피라미드의 꼭지점에 형성된 InGaN/GaN 양자점의 광학적 특성에 대해 분석하였다. 저온(9 K)에서 마이크로 photoluminescence 측정을 통해 양자점의 발광파장이 피라미드의 옆면의 파장과는 다름을 확인하였다. 여기광의 세기에 따른 양자점의 발광 세기 측정하여 여기광에 선형 비례함을 보이고, 양자점의 편광도를 측정하여 선형 편광임을 확인하였다. 마지막으로, 광량에 대해 시간에 따른 상관관계를 측정함으로써 양자점이 양자 발광체의 특성을 보이는 지 확인하였다.

This paper is concerned with a new paradigm for parallel evaluation of linear recursion rules which contain transitive dependency in a shared-nothing parallel architecture. For parallel evaluation of rules, we consider a shared-nothing parallel architecture that consists of a set of nodes and a message passing network to these nodes. An evaluation of normalized rules is a computation of the proof theoretic meaning of a collection of rules. We shall here define normalized recursion rules which contain transitive dependency, present an equivalent expression for the rule, propose a paradigm for Parallel evaluation of normalized rule based on the equivalent expression using join, partition, and transitive closure operations, and analyze response-time complexity.

In this paper, we propose the face image recognition algorithm using skin color information, face region features such as eye, nose, and mouse, etc., and geometrical features of chin line. In the proposed algorithm, we used the intensity as well as skin color information in the HSI color coordinate which is similar to human eye system. The experimental results of proposed method shows improved extraction quality of face and provides adaptive extraction methods for the races. And also, we used chin line information as well as geometrical features of face such as eye, nose, mouse information for the improvement of face recognition quality, Experimental results shows the more improved recognition as well as extraction quality than conventional methods.

Recently, the use of transfer slab system has increased greatly. However, several construction problems are being encountered owing to its excessive thickness. Therefore, in this study, a transfer slab system that uses a reverse drop panel, which can utilize the facility space of the pit floor by reducing the transfer slab thickness, was considered. To investigate the shear behavior of transfer slab system that uses the reverse drop panel, the two-way shear strength of transfer slab-column connection with the reverse drop panel was analyzed using nonlinear FE analysis. In addition, the two-way shear strength evaluations of transfer slab with the reverse drop panel conducted using the existing evaluation methods were verified by comparing the strengths predicted by those methods with the results of nonlinear FE analysis.

A domain/boundary decomposition method is applied for efficient analyses of thermo-elasto-viscoplastic damage and contact problems under the assumption of infinitesimal deformation. For the decomposition of a whole domain and contact boundaries, all the equality constraints on the interface and contact interfaces are restated with simple penalty functional. Therefore, the non-linearity of the problem is localized within finite element matrices in a few subdomains and on contact interfaces. By setting up suitable solution algorithms, the computational efficiency can be improved considerably. The general tendency of the computational efficiency is illustrated with some numerical experiments.

Many papers which deal with the dynamic instability of shell-like structures under the STEP load has been published but there have been few papers related to the dynamic instability of hybrid cable domes. And also there are a few researches which treat the essential phenomenon of the dynamic buckling using the phase for investigating occurrence of chaos. In this study the indirect buckling of hybrid cable domes considering geometric nonlinearity are investigated numerically and compared it with the static critical load The dynamic critical loads are determined by the numerical integration of the geometric nonlinear equation of motion and the mechanism of the indirect buckling is examined by using the phase curves.

Seismic fragility functions are derived for probabilistic evaluation of seismic control performance of energy dissipation devices installed in reinforced concrete structures. Displacement-dependent dampers are added to the nonlinear single-degree-of-freedom systems with different natural periods and hysteretic characteristics of which stiffness and strength has uncertainty. Nonlinear time history analysis is conducted for those SDOF systems and the result is processed statistically to obtain seismic fragility functions in the form of log normal distribution. Variation of seismic fragility functions for different parameters of SDOF systems and dampers are investigated and the seismic control performance is assessed probabilistically.

The linear hybrid stepping motors (LHSM) has been widely used due to its simple structure and low cost control. Despite of its attractive features, the conventional LHSM has the multiples of 4th times harmonic reluctance force from excitation current and cogging force from space harmonic of permeance. This paper propose a new LHSM, which the mechanical and electrical phase difference are $45^{\circ}$. The proposed motor shows a unique ability to deliver low detent force and we propose a closed-loop control scheme to attack the ripple force for high performance applications. An analytical and experimental comparison between conventional and proposed LHSM is evaluated to confirm the effectiveness of the proposed modeling and control scheme.

Earthquakes can cause serious loss of life and significant property damage. Thus, the study of active faults is important in evaluating future fault activity and hazards caused by future earthquake events. Structural mapping and the tracing of active faults are the primary steps in studies of active faults. Until now, active faults in South Korea have been mapped using aerial photography, satellite images, and low-quality DEMs. Lineament analysis as a means of identifying active faults is relatively difficult in Korea due to geological characteristics (weak tectonic activity) and dense vegetation cover. In this paper, we introduce the basic concept of the LiDAR technique (a new prospective remote sensing method) and a data analysis method that can overcome these problems. This paper will contribute to a better understanding of the airborne LiDAR technique and its application to South Korea. Some preliminary results from Korean and USA LiDAR data show the usefulness of this technique for tracing lineaments, active faults, and terraces in South Korea.
