Key questions to researchers interested in nonlinear analysis of skeletal structures are whether the distributed plasticity approach - albeit computationally demanding - is more reliable than the concentrated plasticity to adequately capture the extent and severity of the inelastic response, and whether force-based formulation is more efficient than displacement-based formulation without compromising accuracy. The present research focusing on performance-based seismic response of mid-span concrete bridges provides a pilot holistic investigation opting for some hands-on answers. OpenSees software is considered adopting different modeling techniques, viz. distributed plasticity (through either displacement-based or force-based elements) and concentrated plasticity via beam-with-hinges elements. The pros and cons of each are discussed based on nonlinear pushover analysis results, and fragility curves generated for various performance levels relying on incremental dynamic analyses under real earthquake records. Among prime conclusions, distributed plasticity modeling albeit inherently not relying on prior knowledge of plastic hinge length still somewhat depends on such information to ensure accurate results. For instance, displacement-based and force-based approaches secure optimal accuracy when dividing, for the former, the member into sub-elements, and satisfying, for the latter, a distance between any two consecutive integration points, close to the expected plastic hinge length. On the other hand, using beam-with-hinges elements is computationally more efficient relative to the distributed plasticity, yet with acceptable accuracy provided the user has prior reasonable estimate of the anticipated plastic hinge length. Furthermore, when intrusive performance levels (viz. life safety or collapse) are of concern, concentrated plasticity via beam-with-hinges ensures conservative predicted capacity of investigated bridge systems.

In this paper, we discuss the modeling of flexible manipulators. In the modeling of flexible manipulators, there are two approaches: one is based on the distributed-parameter modeling and the other on the lumped-parameter modeling. The former has been applied to control and analysis of simple manipulator requiring precision, while the latter has been applied to multi-link spatial manipulator, because of the model's simplicity. We have already proposed the lumped-parameter modeling method for simple manipulator, and investigate that model of how much degree of precision we can get. The experiments and simulations are performed, comparing these results, the approximate performance of our modeling method is discussed.

수문학적 모델에 대한 연구보고에 의하면 유출량 모의 측면에서 집중형 모형은 분포형 모형보다 적용성이 좋다고 볼 수 있다. 분포형모형은 컴퓨터 계산환경 및 현장 실험이 허용하는 범위내에서 지형인자를 단순화하여야만 하기 때문에 양적인 오차를 가진다. 하지만 공간적 지형인자를 고려한다는 측면에서 분포형모형은 지표수 흐름을 분석하는데 더욱 효과적이다. 본 연구의 목적은 흐름의 특성을 결정짓는 최소한의 지형인자(흐름경사, 방향, 누적도)를 고려한 저류함수를 이용하여, 격자기반의 공간적 강우-유출모형을 개발하는 것이며, 이러한 작업의 과정은 개인용 컴퓨터에서 이루어진다 모형의 원형은 비교적 작은 유역인 횡성다목적댐을 대상으로 개발하여, 유역면적이 비교적 넓은 합천댐 유역을 대상으로 적용하였다. 댐지짐에 대한 유역유출 모의결과 Nash J.E. 와 Sutcliffe J.V.가 제안한 효율계수는 약 0.9를 상회하였으나, 유역내 상류 수위관측소에 대한 효율계수는 양호하지 못하였는데, 이러한 이유는 대상댐 유역에 대하여 산정된 수위-유량 곡선식의 고수위부분이 과추정 되었다고 판단된다. 본 연구결과 유역의 공간적으로 분포된 유역특성을 고려한 강우-유출모형은 GIS를 이용하여 손쉽게 구현할 수 있었다. 향후 강우레이더와 같이 공간적으로 분포된 강우량의 실시간 취득이 범용화되면, 본 연구의 분포형 모형을 직접 적용할 수 있을 것으로 판단된다.

Parallel and distributed simulation is concerned with the efficient execution of large-scale discrete event simulation models on multiprocessors and distributed platforms. After the development of WWW, many efforts in the parallel and distributed simulation have been made for modeling, particularly building simulation languages and creating model libraries that can be assembled and executed over WWW. However, web-based parallel and distributed simulation is restricted by heterogeneous computing environments. Recently, the advent of XML and web services technology has made these efforts enter upon a new phase. Especially, the web services as a distributed information technology have demonstrated powerful capabilities for scalable interoperation of heterogeneous systems. This paper aims to develop and evaluate the parallel and distributed simulation using the web services technology. In particular, a prototype multi-pass simulation framework is implemented using Java-based web services technology. It focuses on the efficiency of multi-pass simulation used for optimization through the distribution of simulation replication to several simulation service providers. The development of parallel and distributed simulation using web services will help solve efficiently large-scale problems and also guarantee interoperability among heterogeneous networked systems.

As distributed computing systems become popular, many modeling techniques and methods have been developed in specify the specification formally and verify the distributed/concurrent sytems. In spite of importance of communication in distributed object-oriented systems, specifying of communication method generally has not been emphasized in the design phase. One reason is due to the system designer misunderstanding, that is, a specification needs to be independent on the implementation. However, since defining communication pattern indistributed object-oriented systems is more serious than the required message passing method in the design phase. specifying the communication pattern is necessary instead of postponing until the implementation. In this paper, two formal specification techniques, temporal logic method and Petri nets method, for the communication in distributed systems are discussed. One is based on the temporal logic, which specifies the different patterns of primitive predicates. This method enable to define the underlying mechanism which can be interpreted as constraints. The Petri net method helps to specify the dynamic behavior of communicational patterns using the properties of Petri nets.

Accurate estimation of the spatial distribution of rainfall is critical to the successful modeling of hydrologic processes. The objective of this study is to evaluate the applicability of spatially distributed rainfall data. Spatially distributed rainfall was calculated using Kriging method and Thiessen method. The application of spatially distributed rainfall was appreciated to the runoff response from the watershed. The results showed that for each method the coefficient of determination for observed hydrograph was $0.92\~0.95$ and root mean square error was $9.78\~10.89$ CMS. Ordinary Kriging method showed more exact results than Simple Kriging, Universal Kriging and Thiessen method, based on comparison of observed and simulated hydrograph. The coefncient of determination for the observed peak flow was 0.9991 and runoff volume was 0.9982. The accuracy of rainfall-runoff prediction depends on the extent of spatial rainfall variability.

This paper presents an analytical method for the reliability evaluation of distribution system, including the distributed generations. Unlike the large sized generations of transmission system, the distributed generations have complexities in analyzing and determining the operation. In the process of evaluate reliability, it can be shown that the analytical method is simpler than the Monte-Carlo simulation and the method using Load Duration Curve model is more accurate than that using peak load model. The modeling of distributed generation to analysis distribution system reliability using LDC is proposed in this Paper, and is compared with the MCS method as a result of case studies.

Web-based simulation is one of the most interesting field of simulation research today. Among many research area of web-based simulation, we concern about what a effective way of building simulation model is since creating comprehensive simulation models can be expensive and time consuming. So this paper discusses how to integrate distributed simulation sub-models as objects for constructing the required simulation model which is more large and complex. We introduce two web-oriented methodologies (such as JIDL, CORBA) and the concepts of agent for assisting modelers to integrate simulation models scattered over the web. SINDBAD, which we designed, is a simulation environment which makes it possible constructing a simulation model with distributed model objects on the web and performing the parallel simulation in a distributed way. It is organized according to design patterns in the object oriented concept. Actually we are on the premise that all the distributed objects are originally composed in a CORBA-compatible way to start with our prototype of SINDBAD.
