  • Sky-bridges between adjacent buildings can enhance lateral stiffness and limit the impact of lateral forces. This study analysed the structural capabilities and dynamic performances of sky-bridge-coupled buildings under various sets of ground motions. Finite Element (FE) analyses were carried out with the link being iteratively repositioned along the full height of the structures. Incremental dynamic analysis (IDA) and probabilistic damage distribution were also applied. The results indicated that the establishment of sky-bridges caused a slight change in the natural frequency and mode shapes. The sky-bridge system was shown to be efficient in controlling displacement and Inter-Storey Drift Ratio (%ISDR) and reducing the probability of damage in the higher floors. The most efficient location of the sky-bridge, for improving its rigidity, was found to be at 88% of the building height. Finally, the effects of two types of materials (steel and concrete) and end conditions (hinged and fixed) were studied. The outcomes showed that coupled buildings with a sky-bridge made of steel with hinged connection could withstand ground motions longer than those made of concrete with fixed connection.

  • In wide area SDP networks, the failure of SDP components caused by malicious attacks will be accompanied by different deployment locations, profoundly affecting network service latency. However, traditional deployment methods based on prior knowledge are no longer applicable to dynamic SDP networks. This article proposes a dynamic and dimensionally variable deployment mechanism DDPG-SDPCR for SDP components based on DDPG, which enhances the network's endogenous security capability and improves attack tolerance. Based on this, we constructed corresponding mathematical models for latency, load balancing, and attack tolerance. The DDPG-SDPCR mechanism dynamically deploys new SDP nodes to replace faulty nodes based on the real-time status of the network, thereby achieving imperceptible attack tolerance for users. We have implemented a wide area SDP prototype with endogenous security capabilities and evaluated it under different network topologies, traffic sizes, and network attacks. The evaluation results indicate that under high traffic conditions, our proposed redeployment mechanism outperforms the baseline by 36.42% in latency, and only increases by 19.24% compared to the non attacked situation.

  • The rapid advancement of computer technology has necessitated a safer user environment, prompting the adoption of the zero trust model, which verifies all internal and external network activities. This paper proposes an efficient network traffic data-based dynamic access control method leveraging Software-Defined Perimeter (SDP) capabilities to implement zero trust and address latency issues. According to the performance evaluation results, the detection performance of the proposed scheme is similar to that of conventional schemes, but the dataset size was reduced by 62.47%. Additionally, by proposing an adaptive zero trust verification approach, the dataset size and verification time were reduced by 83.9% and 9.1%, respectively, while maintaining similar detection performance to conventional methods.

  • This study focuses on export venture firms in Daedeok Innopolis and examines the structural relationships among dynamic capability, technology commercialization competence, innovation performance, and competitive advantage. In particular, this study attempts to analyze dynamic capabilities that may affect technology commercialization competence, innovation performance, and competitive advantage. The development of the research model takes on a dynamic-capability view and is based on empirical studies regarding competitive advantage. A survey of 103 export venture firms was conducted from January 5, 2015, to February 4, 2015. A partial least squares structural equation model is used to test the relationships between constructs set in the study. The results of the study show that the dynamic capability of an export venture firm has a significant positive influence on the firm's technology commercialization competence, innovation performance, and competitive advantage. The study also finds evidence that the export venture firm's technology commercialization competence directly affects its innovation performance and competitive advantage. In addition, the findings indicate that the innovation performance of an export venture firm has a significant positive impact on the firm's competitive advantage. Overall, these findings contribute to a better understanding of the contexts in which dynamic capability represents a specific capability for export venture firms.

  • The use of a combined starter/generator integrated into the drive train of an automobile offers several possibilities for improvement of fuel economy The use of such a starter/generator system is made feasible by a switch from a 14 volts electrical system to a 42 volts system, however, the sizing of the components is not a trivial problem. This study combines a dynamic electromechanical model of the starter, battery and power electronics with the nonlinear mechanics of the piston/crankshaft system and a thermofluid model of the compression and expansion processes to investigate the cold start problem. The example involves the start of an eight cylinder engine at -25 degrees Celsius. This paper shows how the mechatronic V8 engine of an automotive starter/generator system for the startability works well.

  • Manufacturing companies must have close relationships with cooperative companies and customers under dynamic market surroundings. Not only product life cycle, but also the allowed period between development of product and sale becomes shorter. In spite of these situations, most manufacturing companies have insufficient capabilities of the information technology and data exchange formats between companies are so different. Thus, there exists a limit on the efficient management of companies. These problems in manufacturing companies could be solved by CALS. Through CALS the company responses quickly to customer demand, transfers this information to manufacturing systems automatically, and distributes products at appropriate time In short, CALS is a strategy to distribute products satisfying with quality, cost and delivery. And up to now, most manufacturing companies have proceeded CIM systems. In this paper, an approach for the efficient building CALS system through extension of CIM in the manufacturing companies is proposed.

  • In an order-oriented production system such as mold manufacturing, the production starts with an order acceptance, and the production planning is set up according to the accepted order information. Such a work can be done through a dynamic process management system which can reflect shop floor situation dynamically. In this paper, so called the Quick order acceptance evaluation system that can investigate order confirmation quickly, is discussed. When an order is asked, this system must consider the time constraint to determine whether to accept or not, and must be reliable when the determined results are used in the shop floor. For this system, firstly, we simplified the machines by grouping based on their operation capabilities, secondly, we conducted load analysis to calculate available capacities during given periods using heuristic method instead of mathematical algorithm, thirdly, expert can input his experienced knowledge into the system interactively when simulation results don't meet the required due dates. As a case study, we applied this system to an injection mold manufacturing factory.

  • Most existing FRADs support only permanent virtual circuit-based frame relay services. But several applications such as intranets, desktop video conferencing, remote access and voice applications typically do not require the dedicated bandwidth capabilities of PVCs because connections are only occasionally needed. So it drives the need of switched virtual circuit-based FRADs which offer potentail cost savings associated with dynamic bandwidth on demand connectivity. In this paper, we describe Frame Relay Network Access System(FNAS) that provides switched virtual circuit-based frame relay access for dial-up Internet services. The hardware configuration, software architecture and call processing flow of FNAS is explained.

  • In this paper, the classical Lyapunov synthesis method for designing controllers is extended to fuzzy logic. This control technique is then applied to the design of a novel tracking controller for reluctance motor drives. The main features of the method are small rule base, simplicity of construction, and low cost. The proposed controller has been simulated for a model case. In addition, its dynamic performances have been shown to be satisfactory. Capabilities of the proposed technique in controlling the highly nonlinear systems of reluctance motors with much simplicity are also verified.
