  • This paper investigates the insertion loss of nosie barrier with a interference device. The efficiency of the conventional interference-type noise barrier depends on specific frequency. Thus this study is performed to improve the efficiency of the nosie barrier in the range of broadband frequency, by changing the shape of interference device and adding the channel with various depths. The boundary element method (BEM) is used to predict the insertion loss of noise barrier. Two-dimensional boundary element model is created to simulate the performance of long barrier with a line source.

  • Presented herein is a study on reducing the hydroelastic response of very large floating structures (VLFS) by altering their plan shapes. Two different categories of VLFS geometries are considered. The first category comprises longish VLFSs with different fore/aft end shapes but keeping their aspect ratios constant. The second category comprises various polygonal VLFS plan shapes that are confined within a square boundary or a circle. For the hydroelastic analysis, the water is modeled as an ideal fluid and its motion is assumed to be irrotational so that a velocity potential exists. The VLFS is modeled as a plate by adopting the Mindlin plate theory. The VLFS is assumed to be placed in a channel or river so that only the head sea condition is considered. The results show that the hydroleastic response of the VLFS could be significantly reduced by altering its plan shape.

  • This paper suggests a typology of the modes of collaboration for scientific and technological knowledge production and sharing (STKPS) based on knowledge communication types, including organizational factors, communication channel, intensity, and decision-making, that affect STKPS processes. It is mainly designed to rearrange ideas about collaboration drawn from the literature in order to develop a conceptual framework for categorizing modes of collaboration based on how communication patterns shape four modes of collaboration. In the conclusion and discussion part, practical implications, limitations of this study, and further studies are discussed. In particular, the practical implications propose communication patterns suitable for five stages of collaboration processes. As the collaboration initiation or set-up stage is critical, extensive face-to-face communication is recommended in the auditing stage. In the execution stage, media-based communication can be actively utilized, because collaborators will mostly exchange explicit codified knowledge supported by IT. The evaluation and reinforcement stages concentrate on tacit knowledge exchange and explicit knowledge evaluation, which requires intensive face-to-face communication including negotiations for evaluating collaboration outcomes and partnership.

  • This paper presents a technique for electromagnetic field analysis on surge response due to Mid-span back-flashovers effects in lightning protection system of 500 kV EHV single circuit transmission tower by the neural networks method. These analyses are based on modeling lightning return stroke as well as on coupling the electromagnetic fields of the stroke channel to the line. The ground conductivity influences both the electric field as well as the coupling mechanism and hence the magnitude and wave shape of the induced voltage. The technique can be used to analyzed the corona voltage effect, the effective of stroke to the span tower, the surge impedance of transmission lines. The maximum voltage from flashovers effects in the lines. The model is compatible with general electromagnetic transients programs such as the ATP-EMTP. The simulation results show that this study analyses for time-domain with those produced by a cascade multi-section model, the surge impedance of a full-sized tower hit directly by a lightning stroke is discussed.

  • The Yi Sun-Sin grand bridge is the suspension bridge which connects Myodo and Gwangyang. It is over the main navigation channel of Gwangyang Harbor. South anchorage(AN1, Myodo side) of the bridge is designed as rock anchored type. It sustains using the resistance of the underground rock's mass in Myodo. As this type of anchorage can minimize the exposure of the structure, It is economically efficient and environmentally friendly. North anchorage (AN2, Gwangyang side) is designed as the gravity type. This anchorage is 68 meters in diameter and use its own weight to support. Instead of normal rectangular diaphragm wall, the circular shape diaphragm wall is adopted to the north anchorage. It doesn't need to use internal temporary facilities, so it can significantly improve the constructability of the structure.

  • In this paper, the shapes of windsurfing boards are proposed for the promotion of their public utilization. Initially, we investigated the principal dimensions of 1,500 windsurfing boards that were produced in the last six years to categorize the characteristics of the boards. Then, model tests were performed in a circulating water channel to determine the resistance characteristics and the flow phenomena, including the wetness of the decks. After analyzing the principal dimensions and the results of the tests of existing windsurfing boards, we proposed four public board shapes that resulted from changing the shapes of the nose and rail and protecting the deck of free-ride boards from wetness. Finally, we predicted the performance of the four proposed windsurfing boards.

  • In this letter, a novel M-ary code-selected direct sequence (DS) ultra-wideband (UWB) communication system is presented. Our purpose is to achieve a high data rate by an M-ary code-selected direct sequence bipolar pulse amplitude modulation (MCSDS-BPAM) scheme. In this system, a particular DS code sequence is selected by the $log_2M$/2 bits from the DS gold code set. This scheme can accomplish both a high data rate without increasing the system bandwidth or changing the pulse shape and improve the BER with an increase of modulation level M even at a lower signal-to-noise ratio (SNR). The receiver signal processing algorithm is given for an MCSDS-BPAM UWB system over an ideal AWGN channel and correlation receivers.

  • The present study investigates on design optimization of rib-roughened two-dimensional channel to enhance turbulent heat transfer. Response surface method with Reynolds-averaged Navier-Stokes analysis is used as an optimization technique. Standard $k-{\varepsilon}$model with wall functions is adopted as a turbulence closure. The objective function is defined as a linear combination of heat transfer and friction drag coefficients with weighting factor. Computational results for overall heat transfer rate show good agreements with experimental data. Four design variables are optimized for weighting factor of 0.02.

  • The formation of $C_2-C_{10}$ hydrocarbons from methanol over shape-selective ZSM-5 zeolite catalysts is studied. It seems that $C_2-C_5$ olefins formed from methanol via dimethylether are transformed further to higher hydrocarbons containing higher concentration of aromatics by the acid sites of ZSM-5. Unique cross linked channel structure and its hydrophobicity seems to be mainly responsible for its high activity of ZSM-5 catalyst for the conversion of methanol.
