Since the behavior of structural members subjected to blast load shows different responses, the effect of impulse as well as peak load should be considered in the damage analysis. The threshold on P-I diagram that causes specific damage level divides the diagram into the failure zone and the non-failure zones. In this study, numerical analysis is performed based on single-degree-of-freedom (SDOF) techniques to generate rational P-I diagram considering material non-linearity and dual failure modes (flexure and direct shear) of RC beams. From the comparison with existing test results it is concluded that proposed numerical method is good to derive failure mode of RC beam under blast load.

The characteristics of NOx emission in reburning process have been experimentally studied. The design point of burner is creative of three distinct reaction zones; a primary flame zone that NOx producted, reburn zone to reduce the primary zone NOx and burnout zone. Liquefied Petroleum Gas(LPG) was used as main and reburn fuels. Process parameters investigated included main/reburn fuel ratio, primary/secondary air ratio, reborn fuel injector position and different designed quarl. The NOx emission characteristic of aerodynamic designed burner relied on reborn fuel ratio and was slightly affected by a reburn fuel injector position and quarl shape.

This study deals with the use of the conjugate gradient method for the simultaneous estimation of two unknown boundary heat fluxes on the slab in reheating furnace. Temperature measurements by the experiment are used in the inverse analysis. The heat flux estimations for three different cases of measurement locations in the slab are performed: non-skid, skid, and shift-skid zones. The estimated heat fluxes for three cases indicated the three regions having local peak values of heat fluxes. The estimated temperatures at measurement locations were in good agreements with the measured temperatures within 5% relative error.

The fatigue crack growth behavior of high strength X80 pipeline steel was investigated with compact tension specimens that crack growth directions were aligned either parallel or normal to the rolling direction of the pipeline. Also, the fatigue crack growth rates for welded joint of X80 pipeline steel were investigated with compact tension specimens that crack growth directions were aligned either parallel or normal to the welding line. The experimental results indicated the fatigue crack growth behavior was markedly different in three zones, weld metal, heat affected zone and base metal of welded joints. There was a trend toward increment in the fatigue life of weld metal and heat affected zone as compared with the X80 pipeline steel.

We undertook the present study to evaluate different pharmacological as antioxidant, antibacterial and cytotoxic activities of the crude ethanolic extract of Momordica charantia (Family: Cucurbitaceae) leaves. The antioxidant property of the extract was assessed by 1, 1-diphenyl-2-picryl hydrazyl free radical scavenging assay. The extract showed antioxidant activity where $IC_{50}$ was about ${\sim}500{\mu}g/ml\;and\;IC_{50}$ was about ${\sim}10{\mu}g/ml$ for standard drug ascorbic acid. The extract showed a broad spectrum of antibacterial activity against all the tested gram positive and gram-negative bacteria where Staphylococcus epidermidis, Staphylococcus aureus, Salmonella typhi and Shigella dysenteriae were prominent. And the zones of inhibition were ranging from 8-15 mm for all the tested bacteria. Its cytotoxic property was evaluated by brine shrimp lethality bioassay. The extract showed significant lethality and the $LC_{50}$ value was $20{\mu}g/ml$.

Monitoring of water surfaces through permanent measurement of hydrodynamic and meteorological data is one of the main requirements in safe and sustainable water management. The Caspian Sea, the major surface water body in Iran, significantly affects more than 600 km of urban and industrial coastline. In the present work, an integrated marine monitoring network for the entire southern coastline of the Caspian Sea was developed. The main design concerns centered on the network measuring components and data recording, checking, filtering, gap recognition, and transferring systems. Four coastal monitoring stations were assigned, along with two regional collecting stations and one central data station for gathering, checking and delivering recorded data at different access levels. Applicable guidelines on selection of measuring devices for both shallow and deep water zones are presented herein.

Acoustic brightness and contrast control are promising techniques for manipulating acoustic energy over selected zones of interest using loudspeaker arrays. In this paper, the fundamental theory and concept of the brightness and contrast control is reviewed. The similarity and difference of two different strategies are explained in terms of the constraint required to determine a unique solution among many possible candidates. The application examples and recent progresses of the brightness and contrast control are presented.

A two color PIV technique has been developed for visualization of complex and high speed flow in a ramjet combustor. Two color PIV has the advantages that velocity distributions in high speed flowfields can be measured simply by varying the time interval between two different laser beams and a directional ambiguity problem can be solved by color separation, and then a signal-to-noise ratio can be increased through nearly perfect cross-correlation. As a basic research of the ramjet engine, a 2-D shaped combustor with two symmetric air intakes has been manufactured and an experimental study has been conducted using a two color PIV technique. The flow characteristics such as recirculation zones, intake air mixing and turbulent kinetic energy have been investigated varying inlet angles and dome heights. It was found that the primary recirculation zone is affected mainly by the dome height, whereas the secondary recirculation zone is influenced by the air inlet angle.

Rotary shearing using of rotating and locally shear force has been studied. It is possible to be obtained in any case for requested blank diameters. In this paper, different local forming zones, that are clearances between upper roller and vertically taped low roller, were investigated. Required shearing force is calculated by undecided coefficient method for clearances and strokes of upper roller. Rotary shearing is completed undergoing some processes composed of pressing steps and standing steps. The reason for using these processes is to avoid jamming or tearing of blank by means of upper roller during shearing.

For evaluating equations of bursting force in different codes, comparative study of the formulas was conducted. Because the equations does not consider variables such as shape of anchorages, angle of tendons, and eccentricity, a relation between the bursting forces and the variables has to be analyzed. In this paper, therefore, a comparative analysis of bursting forces computed by equations in the codes and finite element analysis was performed. As a result, it could be figured out that bursting force equations in the local zone were determined by coefficient k.
