The behaviors and design procedures of building excavation plane in innovative prestressed support (IPS) system are presented in this paper. Determination procedure for initial pretension in IPS wale subjected to design earth pressure is derived. The computer analysis model under uniform and non-uniform earth pressure is constructed using beam element for the IPS wale, tension-only element for cable, and compression-only element for soil. Axial forces and bending moments of IPS wale under initial pretension and design earth pressure are calculated. The combined stresses due to these axial force and bending moment are calculated and safety condition of building excavation plane is investigated.

In Korea, the birth rate is rapidly decreasing in the 21st century. Accordingly, if the current military service and personnel system are maintained, it will be difficult to maintain even the number of the Army reduced to 365,000. Nevertheless, the Army has a mission to protect the country from external aggression as the last bastion of national defense. To fulfill this mission, there are ways to improve the military service and personnel system, but there are ways to maximize individual combat power to create one warrior that is worth a hundred and overcome the insufficient number of troops through superior mobility to the enemy. This study studied how to solve the shortage of troops as well as strengthen combat power through a combined combat system that can maximize individual combat power and mobility by applying the latter concept, and further analyzed the future battle environment and suggested the developmental direction of the army's combined combat system.

This experiment was performed to explore the effect of electric currents and orthodontic forces on bone $PGE_2$ content and orthodontic tooth movement on cats. Stainless steel electrodes were connected a power pack consisting of five miniature batteries, a transistor, and a resistor. The current $(10{\pm}2{\mu}A)$ was provided by a constant source encased in a palatal acrylic plate. In first experiment, the cathode was placed mesial to the right maxillary canine tooth and the anode was positioned distal to the tooth, Sham electrodes were placed new the left cuspid, to serve as control. Nine cats were divided into three groups evenly. Groups of three animals were treated with electric currents only-for 1, 3 and 7 days, respectively. In second experiment, electric currents and the orthodontic forces of about 80 gm were applied to the right maxillary canine, and the orthodontic forces only were applied to the left maxillary canine. 3 groups of three cats each were treated in this experiment-for 1, 3 and 7 days, respectively. Alveolar bone samples were obtained from sites of tension and compression as well as from contralateral sites. Bone samples were extracted by homogenization in $40\%$ ethanal. The supernatant partitioned twice with 2 volumes of petroleum ether to remove neutral lipids and the aqueous supernatant partitioned in ethyl acetate. After drying the solvent, $PGE_2$ was measured by radioimmunoassay technique. The obtained results were as follows. 1. Teeth treated with combined force and electricity moved faster than those treated with force alone. 2. Alveolar bone $PGE_2$ content of electric stimulation was increased at both electrodes. 3. Alveolar bone $PGE_2$ content of mechanical stimulation at compression sites was gradually increased at all time period. At tension site, $PGE_2$ content increased after 1 day of mechanical stimulation remained elevated at all time period. 4. Alveolar bone $PGE_2$ content of compression sites was increased more than that of tension sites from mechanical stimulation as well as electrical stimulation.

When the reaction wheel rotates, the disturbance occurs mainly due to the mass imbalance. It is necessary to predict the effect of disturbance on the attitude stability of the satellite. The disturbance forces and torques are identified and the attitude jitter of the satellite is analyzed depending on the configuration of the wheels. On the analysis the equation of the satellite motion is combined with the translational and rotational dynamics of the wheels. The accuracy of analysis is verified by simulation of STSAT-3 satellite.

This paper presents a method to predict the transient characteristic of the air lubricated slider head in a hard disk drive by using optimization technique. The time dependent modified Reynolds equation based on the molecular slip flow approximation equations was used to describe the fluid flow within the air bearing and the implicit finite difference scheme is applied to calculate the pressure distribution under the slider head. The exhaustive search combined with the Broyden-Fletcher-Goldfarb-Shanno method were employed to obtain optimum design variables which are taper angle, rail width and taper length in order to keep the forces and moments acting on the slider head in dynamic equilibrium. The results show that the optimal head slider of the magnetic head has good stability characteristic that can reach the steady state within 0.5 microsecond.

Shape rolling processes to produce H-section beams are numerically simulated by the simplified three-dimensional finite element method. The 2-dimensional finite element method, used for the generalized plane strain condition, is combined with the slab method. Computer simulation results of the 19-passes in H-section beam rolling in practice include the grid distortions, the cross-sectional area changes, the roll separating forces, and the roll torques. Also, the amount of side spread can be found during the multi-pass rolling simulations. The finite element mesh system is remeshed with I-DEAS whenever the billet distorts severely. This study would contribute to CAD/CAM of shape rolling process through the optimal roll pass schedule.

The structural methodology in designing a transmission tower have been performed to assume a simple truss behavior. But there're quite differences between a simple truss behavior and a real one. A suitable explanation for a structural stability can be expressed as a semi-rigid connection instead of the assumed hinged connection. This study proposes an alternative structural analysis modelling strategy for the transmission tower design. Proposed element models are truss element model, beam element model, and combined beam-truss element model. The static finite element analysis shows that there's a moment distribution between a mainpost member and the other bracing member.

When a bolt is tightened up to the range of plastic deformation, yielding is governed by the combined stresses due to the axial force developed in the bolt and the frictional torque developed on the thread in contact with the nut. Consideration is taken account of the fact that the unused portion of the thread has least sectional area being subject to initial yielding. Once yielding has taken place some strain hardening effect will result, Incremental stress-strain relations are used to treat the continued yielding, which is equivalent to treat continued yielding as if summing up the effects of thin walled cylinders subject to plastic deformation. M10 bolts of common and fine series thread are used for computational purposes. Variation of axial forces and frictional torques vs. the frictional coefficients tare presented together with other plots showing some characteristics of bolt under plastic deformation.

Electro-Active paper (EAPap) is a new smart material that has a potential to be used in biomimetic actuator and sensor. It is made by cellulose that is abundant material in nature. EAPap is fascinating with its biodegradability, lightweight, large displacement, high mechanical strength and low actuation voltage. Actuating mechanism of EAPap is known to be the combined effects of ion migration and piezoelectricity. However, the electromechanical actuation mechanisms are not yet to be established. This paper presents the modeling of the actuation behavior of water infused cellulose samples and their composite dielectric constants calculated by Maxwell-Wagner theory. Electro-mechanical forces were calculated using Maxwell stress tensor method. Bending deflection was evaluated from simple beam model and compared with experimental observation, which result good correlation with each other.
