An elasto-plastic finite element method using the theory of strain gradient plasticity is proposed to evaluate the size dependency of structural plasticity that occurs when the configuration size decreases to micron scale. For this method, we suggest a low-order plane and three-dimensional displacement-based elements, eliminating the need for a high order, many degrees of freedom, a mixed element, or super elements, which have been considered necessary in previous researches. The proposed method can be performed in the framework of nonlinear incremental analysis in which plastic strains are calculated and averaged at nodes. These strains are then interpolated and differentiated for gradient calculation. We adopted a strain-gradient-hardening constitutive equation from the Taylor dislocation model, which requires the plastic strain gradient. The developed finite elements are tested numerically on the basis of typical size-effect problems such as micro-bending, micro-torsion, and micro-voids. With respect to the strain gradient plasticity, i.e., the size effects, the results obtained by using the proposed method, which are simple in their calculation, are in good agreement with the experimental results cited in previously published papers.

This paper presents the characteristics of an antenna factor of two kinds of EMI dipole antennas with a coaxial cable balun used in the frequency range between 30 and 1,000 MHz. The integral equation for unknown current distribution is solved by the Galerkin's method of moments with piecewise sinusoidal functions. An antenna factor for EMI dipole antennas with the coaxial cable balun is derived by using the power loss concepts. We can realize two kinds of EMI dipole antennas with appropriate antenna factors in the frequency range from 30 to 1,000 MHz: 150-cm dipole length($30{\sim}300 MHz$) and 30cm dipole length($300{\sim}1,000 MHz$). To check th ε validity of the theoretical analysis, the complex antenna factor was measured using by reference antenna methods. It is shown that the calculated complex antenna factor is good agreement with experimental results.

This study was carried out to develop prediction model for fill slope failure of forest road in igneous rock area using fuzzy theory which is non-linear model. The results were summarized as follows. The importance weight of factors on fill slope failure was ranked in the order of fill slope length, fill slope gradient, soil type, aspect, road position and longitudinal slope form. The degree of potential slope failure was high mainly under the such conditions as fill slope length greater than 8m, fill slope gradients steeper than $40^{\circ}$, constituent material with weathered rock, aspect of NE and road on ridge position. The optimal prediction model was developed with 0.15 of optimal coefficient(c) and 3.1165 of ${\lambda}$-value when fuzzy integral value of slope failure possibility is more than 0.5. And the discriminant accuracy was 86.8%, which shows the high availability for discrimination.

The mixed mode problem (I and II) of a peny-shaped interface cracks in remote tension loading on a bi-material cylinder is studied using finite element method. The energy release rates for the tip of the crack in the interface were calibrated for several different moduli combinations and crack ratios using the modified crack closure integral technique and J-integral method, with numerical results obtained from a commercial finite element program. Numerical results show that non-dimensional value of$\sqrt{G_{II}E^*}/\sqrt[p]{\pi a}$ increases as the crack size or moduli ratio increases. Meanwhile, non-dimensional value of$\sqrt{G_{I}E^*}/\sqrt[p]{\pi a}$ decreases as the moduli ratio increases, but above the moduli ratio of 3 its value decreases then increases again as the crack size increases. Reliability of the numerical analysis in this study was acquired with comparison to an analytical solution for the peny-shaped interface crack in an infinite medium.

In this paper, we proposed the grating parallel plate waveguide structure for converting a linearly polarized wave to a circularly polarized wave. For the design of the polarizer, the moment method and Floquet's theorem are applied under two assumptions that the incident wave is a plane wave and the structure is infinitely periodic. In order for the more precise design, we performed the near-field analysis for the finite polarizer structure using MATLAB. By comparing with the measured results obtained by the near-field arrangement, we verified the correctness of our near-field analysis. By taking the ideal assumptions considered in the initial design procedure into account, newly designed modified dimensions for the polarizer was suggested which give improved performance.

In this paper, the governing differential equations for the free vibration of uniform parabolic arches are derived on the basis of equilibrium equations of a small element of arch rib and the D'Alembert principle. A trial eigen value method is used for determining the natural frequencies and mode shapes. And the Runge-Kutta fourth order integration technique is also used in this method to perform the integration of the differential equations. A detailed study is made of the first mode for the symmetrical and anti-symmetrical vibrations of hinged arches with the Span length equal to 10 m. The effects of the rise of arch, the radius of gyration and the rotary inertia on free vibrations are presented in detail in curves and table.

A study on the dynamic ground effect on three-dimensional wings is done using an indirect boundary element method(unsteady panel method). An integral equation is obtained by applying Green's theorem on all surfaces of the fluid domain. Constant strength dipole and source panels arc distributed on a wing's surface. The wake sheet is represented by constant strength dipoles. At each time step, a row of wake panels is assumed to be convected from the trailing edge of the wing. The tip vortex behind wings in dynamic ground effect moves outward. The amplitudes of the aerodynamic coefficients for the wings in dynamic ground effect are augmented much more comparing to the case in static ground effect.

Low-speed gas flows around a micro-scale flat plate are investigated using a kinetic theory analysis. The Boltzmann equation simplified by a collision model is solved by means of a finite difference approximation with the Discrete Ordinate method. Calculations are made for flows around a 5% flat plate with a finite length of 20 microns. The results are compared with those from the Information Preservation method and a continuum approach with slip boundary conditions. It is shown that three different approaches predict a similar basic flow patterns, while the results from the present method are more accurate than those from the other two methods in details.

스크류 채널 내에 주기적을 배리어를 설치함으로써 단축 스크류 압출 공정에서의 혼합 성능이 높여질수 있음이 S.J. Kim과 T.H. Kwom에 의해 밝혀진 바있다. 그들은 이새 로운 스크류를 통한 혼합이 카오틱하는 점으로부터 이 새로운 스크류를 카오스 스크류라고 명명했다. 우리는 카오스 스크류가 장착된 단축 압출공정에서 역학계 이론과 혼합운동학을 연계하여 연구를 수행하였다. 포인카레 단면을 통한 연구로부터 우리는 배리어의 배열이 islan의 크기에 대단히 밀접하게 관련되어 있음을 발견하였다. 연속적인 쉘 변형은 카오틱 유동에서 유체 요소를 지수 함수 형태로 늘이는 늘임과 접힘으로 이루어진 카오틱 혼합 메 카니즘을보여준다. 유체요소의 국부 늘임은 원리상으로는 계산되어질수 있으나 수치 해석상 의 어려운 점이 있다. 정규 유동에서와 달리 카오틱 유동에서는 입자 추적이 Runge-Kutta 적분중의 시간간격에 대단히 민감하다. 그래서 실제 사용될수 있는 시간 간격에 의해 계산 된 국부 늘임율 및 혼합효율의 정확도가 보장되어지지 않는다. 이러한 점들을 고려하여 우 리는 새로운 혼합 척도로 $\sigma$z를 제안하는데 이값은 비교적 긴 유체선분이 채널방향을 따라 늘어나는 비에 관련된 값이다. 배리어 영역의 길이가 짧을수록 $\sigma$z는 큰값으로 나타나지만 포인카레 단면에 의한 연구에 따르면 배리어의 주기가 너무 짧다면 두 개의 거대한 island 가 존재하는 것으로 밝혀졌다. 그리고 이러한 사실은 유체요소의 늘임비가 크다는 것이 항 상 좋은 혼합성능을 뜻하는 것은 아니라는 점을 보여준다. 이러한 관점에서 볼 때 혼합 스 크류를 설계하는데 있어서는 포인카레 단면을 병행하여 ${\sigma}_z$의 값을 사용하는 것이 바람직할 것이다.

Transmissivity and the signal loss in soil are computed. An electric field expression for the inhomogeneous complex media modelled by two layers is shown as an integral form. Volume scattering occurs in inhomogeneous media, and iterative Born approximation is used to analyze this scattering effect. The degree of randomness is controlled by specifying the variance and correlation length. Expression for the transmissivity and the signal loss is presented as the parameter of soil moisture contents, soil particle radius, temperature and frequency. The analysis shows that big deviation in signal loss depends on the temperature variation remarkably and the physical reason of unusual level is explained.
