  • Two 12 m high tubular steel lighting columns have been instrumented to determine the wind-induced fatigue loading experienced by such columns. Each column supported a single luminaire mounted on a 0.5 m long bracket. One column was planted in soil, and the other bolted through a welded baseplate to a substantial concrete base. The columns were strain gauged just above the shoulder weld which connected the main shaft to the larger base tube. Forced vibration tests were undertaken to determine the natural frequencies and damping of the columns. Extensive recordings were made of response to winds with speeds from 4 m/s to 17 m/s. Selected records were analysed to obtain stress cycle counts and fatigue lives. Mean drag coefficients were also derived from the strain data to investigate experimentally the effect of Reynolds Number.

  • This paper presents a new family of 4-DoF parallel mechanism with two platforms. The new mechanism is composed of front and rear platforms, and three limbs. Two limbs with 6dof joint (P-P-S-P) are attached to the each platform and are perpendicular to baseplate, while the middle limb with 4-Dof joints (R-R-R-P or R-R-P-P) is attached to the revolute joint that connect front and rear platform. The two-DoF-driving mechanism at the middle limb with two base-fixed prismatic actuators can generate the heaving and roll motions or two translational motions. Therefore, Therefore, the new 4-Dof parallel mechanism (1T-3R) can generate pitch motions at each platforms, roll, and heaving motions, while another type of new 4-Dof parallel mechanism (2T-2R) can generate pitch motions at each platforms, x and z translational motions. For 1T-3R mechanism, kinematic analyses including inverse, forward kinematics, and Jacobian are performed.

  • 인공위성은 우주공간의 고진공 상태와 태양 복사열에 의한 고온 및 극저온이 반복되는 가혹한 환경으로 인해 주요 부품의 기능장애가 초래되므로 발사전 지상에서 열진공 시험장비를 이용한 열진공시험을 수행한다. 위성체의 열진공 시험에 사용되는 열교환기인 베이스플레이트(Baseplate)는 우주 열환경을 모사하기 위하여 직접 방열판 표면에 고온 및 저온의 유체를 공급하여 시험 요구에 따른 필요한 열을 공급하게 된다. 일반적으로 우수한 성능의 위성체 부품의 검증을 위해서 지상의 열환경 시험은 접촉식 히터 및 열교환기를 사용하게 되는데, 이때 적절한 히터 및 블로워 파워를 선정하고 챔버 슈라우드와 열교환에 있어 간섭이 없도록 장비를 운용해야 한다. 본 연구에서는 상용프로그램을 이용하여 열진공 시험용 베이스플레이트에 대하여 전산해석을 수행하였으며, 이를 통해 베이스플레이트 내의 작동 유체의 입구 압력에 의한 열진공 시험용 열교환기의 성능 특성을 관찰하였다.

  • High-resolution S-wave reflection surveying has been successfully conducted on paved areas using a Land Streamer originally designed by the author. The main feature of the Land Streamer tool is the non-stretch woven belt on which geophone units are mounted to form a multichannel geophone array similar to a marine streamer. Because it is easily towed by a vehicle or by hand, the tool leads to high performance in field measurements and resultant cost-effectiveness of high-resolution reflection surveys. Although each geophone unit is coupled to the pavement through a metallic baseplate instead of being firmly planted in the ground, the Land Streamer tool provides comparatively clean data, unaffected by traffic noise even on the pavement. Thus, the tool is capable of expanding the opportunity for S-wave reflection surveys in urban areas where many surfaces are paved and traffic noise is severe. A series of high-resolution S-wave reflection surveys on paved areas delineated detailed structures of surface layers shallower than 60 m, and proved the wide applicability of the tool to engineering, environmental applications, and earthquake disaster prevention projects.

  • In this paper, we propose a design procedure for determining the gate position robust to changes and inherent fluctuations in the process conditions during injection molding. To evaluate the robustness of the gate position, the signal-to-noise ratio is used, and noise conditions are implemented using orthogonal arrays, where the process variables are considered as noise factors and possible process fluctuations are set as the levels of the noise factors. To show the usefulness of the proposed robust design procedure, we apply it to a computer CPU baseplate. As a result, it is shown that a robust gate position can be determined that reduces the average warpage deflection by 2.4% and 1.7%, and the variance by 3.4% and 5.1%, compared to the two initial gate positions.

  • Many of the problems which are faced to the edentulous patients are related to a minimal amount of available mandibular bone volume and height. Most of the patients with mild atrophy of the mandible are treated using endosseous implant prosthodontics. TMI(Trans-mandibular Implant) can be used in case of severe mandibular atrophy, poor bone quality, atrophy of the mandible with exposed of inferior alveolar nerve, osteoporosis and the fracture of the atrophic mandible. Also it can eliminate the need for bone grafting and vestibuloplasty. The TMI is a rigid box frame structure which controls and distribute the masticatory force over the severely resorbed mandible. The box frame structure consist of a superstructure, baseplate, 4 transosseous posts, and 5 cortical screws. This is a case report that also describes about the transmandibular implant reconstruction system.

  • The classification of bacteriophage could be followed by several criteria. In this study three criteria were used for classification of Lactobacillus casei bacteriophag. In serological classification. antiserum was prepared by rabbit and used for classification. The inactivation effect of phage by antiserum was exponential and L. casei phage was classified in to three serological groups by inactivation rate (K-values). The Lac Y group was proved as a new serological group but the Lac J and Lac S group were shown the same results as previous reports. From the comparison of restriction enzyme pattern of phage DNA, Lac J group was divided into four sub-groups. According to the difference of host range, Lac J-II group was further subdivided into three groups. These results were shown that L. casei strains S-1 bacteriophage was classified into 8 sub-groups. The phage YK of Lac Y group was shown to consist of a icosahedral head about 95nm in diameter, a contractile tail about 150nm in length and 20nm in width. The tail of YK phage is composed of stacked disks(4nm repeat)and a hexagonal baseplate. The molecular weight of YK phage DNA was approximately 85.6 Mdalton.

  • Recently, the steel has been increaseingly used as an integrated part of high-rise buildings, which often composed of steel structures, steel reinforced concrete structures and composite structures. The steel base is designed to transfer the stresses induced from steel column to the reinforced concrete footing through the base plate. However, in the design of steel structures and steel reinforced concrete structure, it is generally difficult to evaluate the bearing strength of the steel base subjected to large axial force. Furthermore, the material used in steel base is quite different from those used in other connections and a load transferring mechanism of steel base is very complicated in nature. Therefore, a special attention must be placed in design and construction of steel base. In generally, the bearing strength test and research of the steel base subjected to concentrated load are carried out. But, in the design of the structures, uniaxial eccentric load is loaded to the steel base of the steel structures. In this research, the bearing strength and the me of failure considering eccentric loads and eccentric length, were experimented when eccentric load is loaded to the steel base of steel structures. Based on the test results, a basic design reference is suggested for a reasonable design of steel structures, steel reinforced concrete structures and composite structures.

  • The object of this study was to measure of the distortion of various dental waxes under condition simulating clinical usage. Eleven commercial product (table) including the inlay and baseplate waxes were tested, and compared in the study. Test specimens were prepared $5{\times}5{\times}65mm$. split brass mold. Placed this rod wax specimens and the brass wax distortion test mold into the water bath and tested the distortion values for waxes at $35^{\circ}C,\;40^{\cric}C,\;45^{\circ}C\;and\;50^{\circ}C$. Measured the distortion as the difference between the final (Df) and original (Do) distance between the ends of the specimen. Recorded Df, Do and Df-Do (Distortion) to the nearest 0.5mm. A minimum of five specimens were tested for each material. The following conclusions may be drawn from this study. 1) It can be seen that, a significant wax distortion was obtained with the temperature of forming the pattern, and the length of time and the temperature at which it was stored. 2) It was found that, when the storage time was increased, the wax distortion was correspondingly increased. At the sametime, the higher the storage time was employed, the distortion was obviously much greater. 3) It can be observed that the higher the temperature at which the wax was manipulated, the less was the resulting distortion upon storage.

  • This study performed lateral load testing on seventeen wood wall frames in two sections. Section one included eight tests studying structural foam sheathing of shear walls subjected to monotonic loads following the ASTM E564 test method. In this section, the wood frame was sheathed with four different types of structural foam sheathing on one side and gypsum wallboard (GWB) on the opposite side of the wall frame, with Simpson HDQ8 hold down anchors at the terminal studs. Section two included nine tests studying wall constructed with oriented strand board (OSB) only on one side of the wall frame subjected to gradually applied monotonic loads. Three of the OSB walls were tied to the baseplate with Simpson LSTA 9 tie on each stud. From the test results for Section one; the monotonic tests showed an 11 to 27 percent reduction in capacity from the published design values and for Section two; doubling baseplates, reducing anchor bolt spacing, using bearing plate washers and LSTA 9 ties effectively improved the OSB wall capacity. In comparison of sections one and two, it is expected the walls with structural foam sheathing without hold downs and GWB have a lower wall capacity as hold down and GWB improved the capacity.
