This paper provides an reference stress based J estimation equation fur cylinders with finite internal axial surface cracks under internal pressure. In part 1, the J estimation equation based on deformation plasticity using Ramberg-Osgood (R-0) materials is proposed. In this paper, the developed CE/EPRI -type solutions ale then re-formulated based on the reference stress concept. Such a re-formulation provides a simpler equation for J. estimation are then further extended to combined internal pressure and bending. The proposed reference stress based J estimation equation is compared with elastic-plastic 3-D FE results using actual stress-strain data for a Type 304 stainless steel. Good agreement between the FE results and the proposed reference stress based J estimations provides confidence in the use of the proposed method to elastic -plastic fracture mechanics of pressurised piping.

Concrete bond strength with steel re-bars depends on multiple factors including concrete-steel interface and mechanical properties of concrete. However, the hydration development of cementitious paste, and in turn the mechanical properties of concrete, are negatively affected by cold weather. This study aimed at exploring the concrete-steel bonding behavior in concrete cast and cured under freezing temperatures. Three concrete mixtures were cast and cured at -10 and -20℃. The mixtures were protected using conventional insulation blankets and a hybrid system consisting of insulation blankets and phase change materials. The mixtures comprised General Use cement, fly ash (20%), nano-silica (6%) and calcium nitrate-nitrite as a cold weather admixture system. The mixtures were tested in terms of internal temperature, compressive, tensile strengths, and modulus of elasticity. In addition, the bond strength between concrete and steel re-bars were evaluated by a pull-out test, while the quality of the interface between concrete and steel was assessed by thermal and microscopy studies. In addition, the internal heat evolution and force-slip relationship were modeled based on energy conservation and stress-strain relationships, respectively using three-dimensional (3D) finite-element software. The results showed the reliability of the proposed models to accurately predict concrete heat evolution as well as bond strength relative to experimental data. The hybrid protection system and nano-modified concrete mixtures produced good quality concrete-steel interface with adequate bond strength, without need for heating operations before casting and during curing under freezing temperatures down to -20℃.

Immersed boundary method(IBM) is a numerical scheme proposed to simulate flow field around complex objectives using simple Cartesian grid system. In the previous studies, the IBM has mostly been implemented to fractional step method based Navier-Stokes solvers. In this study, we implement the IBM to an incompressible Navier-Stokes solver which uses SIMPLE algorithm. The weight coefficients of the bi-linear and quadratic interpolation equations were formulated by using only geometric information of boundary to reconstruct velocities near IB. Flow around 2D circular cylinder at Re=40 and 100 was solved by using these formulations. It was found that the pressure buildup was not observed even when the bi-linear interpolation was adopted. The use of quadratic interpolation made the predicted aerodynamic forces in good agreement with those of previous studies. For an analysis of moving boundary, we smulated an oscillating circular cylinder with Re=100 and KC(Keulegan-Carpenter) number of 5. The predicted flow fields were compared with experimental data and they also showed good agreements.

The proper orthogonal decomposition (POD) method for time-dependent problems significantly reduces the computational time as it reduces the original problem to the lower dimensional space. Even a higher degree of reduction can be reached if the solution is smooth in space and time. However, if the solution is discontinuous and the discontinuity is parameterized e.g. with time, the POD approximations are not accurate in the reduced space due to the lack of ability to represent the discontinuous solution as a finite linear combination of smooth bases. In this paper, we propose to post-process the sample solutions and re-initialize the POD approximations to deal with discontinuous solutions and provide accurate approximations while the computational time is reduced. For the post-processing, we use the Gegenbauer reconstruction method. Then we regularize the Gegenbauer reconstruction for the construction of POD bases. With the constructed POD bases, we solve the given PDE in the reduced space. For the POD approximation, we re-initialize the POD solution so that the post-processed sample solution is used as the initial condition at each sampling time. As a proof-of-concept, we solve both one-dimensional linear and nonlinear hyperbolic problems. The numerical results show that the proposed method is efficient and accurate.

P2P 분산 시스템의 가장 큰 특징은 해당 피어들이 항상 온라인 상태일 것이라는 보장이 없다는 것이다. 즉 P2P 시스템을 이용할 때에는 해당 피어로부터 파일을 다운로드받다가 다운로드 되지 않는 경우가 발생하게 된다. 이를 해결하기 위한 연구의 대부분은 재전송이라는 방법에 의존하고 있다. 이는 P2P 시스템의 성능 저하의 원인이 되므로 이에 대한 해결책이 필요하다. 본 연구에서는 해당 P2P 시스템을 이용하는 사용자의 평균 이용 시간대의 분석 자료를 자원 제공자 선택의 기준으로 적용하여 자원 전송 보장성을 높이고, 또한 인기도 높은 자원에 대해서 자료 전송 기회를 높여주는 역할의 기존의 분산 객체 리플리케이션 기법들과의 조합에 의한 분산 객체 전송률이 향상된 검색 알고리즘을 제안한다.

The Al-Zour coastal area, located in southern Kuwait, is a region of concentrated industrial water use, seawater intake, and the outfall of existing power plants. The Al-Zour LNG import facility project is ongoing and there are two issues regarding the seawater temperature in this area that must be considered: variations in water temperature under local meteorology and an increase in water temperature due to the expansion of the thermal discharge of expanded power plant. MIKE 3 model was applied to simulate the water temperature from June to July, based on re-analysis data from the European Centre for Medium-Range Weather Forecasts (ECMWF) and the thermal discharge input from adjacent power plants. The annual water temperatures of two candidate locations of the seawater intake for the Al-Zour LNG re-gasification facility were measured in 2017 and compared to the numerical results. It was determined that the daily seawater temperature is mainly affected by thermal plume dispersion oscillating with the phase of the tidal currents. The regional meteorological conditions such as air temperature and tidal currents, also contributed a great deal to the prediction of seawater temperature.

In this study, we apply conditional Generative Adversarial Network, which is one of the deep learning method, to the image-to-image translation from solar magentograms to solar UV and EUV images. For this, we train a model using pairs of SDO/AIA 9 wavelength UV and EUV images and their corresponding SDO/HMI line-of-sight magnetograms from 2011 to 2017 except August and September each year. We evaluate the model by comparing pairs of SDO/AIA images and corresponding generated ones in August and September. Our results from this study are as follows. First, we successfully generate SDO/AIA like solar UV and EUV images from SDO/HMI magnetograms. Second, our model has pixel-to-pixel correlation coefficients (CC) higher than 0.8 except 171. Third, our model slightly underestimates the pixel values in the view of Relative Error (RE), but the values are quite small. Fourth, considering CC and RE together, 1600 and 1700 photospheric UV line images, which have quite similar structures to the corresponding magnetogram, have the best results compared to other lines. This methodology can be applicable to many scientific fields that use several different filter images.

This paper presents the re-evaluation of existing piezocone penetration test (CPTu)-based shear wave velocity (V_s) equations through their application into well-documented data obtained at nine sites in six countries. The re-evaluation indicates that the existing equations are appropriate to use for any specific soil, but not for various types of clays. Existing equations were adjusted to suit all nine clays and show that the correlations between the measured and predicted V_s values tend to improve with an increasing number of parameters in the equations. An adjusted equation, which comprises a CPTu parameter and two soil properties (i.e., effective overburden stress and void ratio) with the best correlation, can be converted into a CPTu-based equation that has two CPTu parameters and depth by considering the effect of soil cementation. Then, the developed equation was verified by application to each of the nine soils and nine other worldwide clays, in which the predicted V_s values are comparable with the measured and the stochastically simulated values. Accordingly, the newly developed CPTu-based equation, which is a time-saving and economical method and can estimate V_s indirectly for any type of naturally deposited clay, is recommended for practical applications.

During a six-month period (autumn 2014 within the framework of a research & education project) we have constructed a professional double-station video-meteor detection network at the SOAO and BOAO mountain summits. Meteor detection is achieved by pixel-to-pixel motion-detection trigger. Each station is nearly autonomous and has three cameras with fixed viewing angles monitoring part of the night-sky over Korea. Various field of views are in use for testing purpose and captured video-meteor data is automatically transferred to a central FTP server on a nightly basis. Data is publicly available. The network has been operational since September 2014 and could serve as a prototype system for a more extended national network for meteor/fireball monitoring and detection in Korean airspace. We will report on the network construction, technical setup and present first results of detected meteors and fireballs. Further information: Meteors@KASI: http://meteor.kasi.re.kr.
