A reinforced concrete pedestrian tunnel is constructed under a four-track surface railway. Heavy rainfall and soil exposure to drying lead to soil with different water content throughout the year. A railway is an open utility that is subject to rainfall without control on the quantity of the water on it and when there is a tunnel under a railway, the water content of the soil around the tunnel is very influential. This research shows the effects of change of water content in the soil around a pedestrian tunnel under a four-track surface railway. The pedestrian tunnel and the soil block around the tunnel are modeled in 3D by the FEM and are studied under the vibrations induced by the moving trains on the four-track surface railway for different soil water contents and the effects of the soil water content on the dynamic behavior of the tunnel and the surrounding soil are demonstrated.

Finite Element Method(FEM) is the most popularly used method in analyzing the dynamic behaviors of structures. But unless the number of finite elements is large enough, the results from FEM are somewhat different from exact analytical solutions, especially at high frequency range. On the other hand, as the Spectral Element Method(SEM) deals directly with the governing equations of structures, the results from this method cannot but be exact regardless of any frequency range. However, despite two dimensional structures are more general, the SEM has been applied only to the analysis of one dimensional structures so far. In this paper, therefore, new methodologies are introduced to analyze the two dimensional plate using SEM. The results from this new method are compared with the exact analytical solutions by letting the two dimensional plate be one dimensional one and showed the dynamic responses of two dimensional plate by including various waves propagated into x-direction.

Development of color printer, postal classification machine, ATM and so on requires higher moving performance of the flat belt. Skew of the flat belt running over misaligned roller has a bad effect on performances of media transport. The vibration of loose side of belt causes the escape of the belt from roller and the drop of velocity of driven roller after the start of driving roller revolution. The skew of flat belt is investigated by FEM and dynamic simulation. FEM results show parameters which affect the skew of belt and match with dynamic results qualitatively. The shape of loose side of belt can be found by dynamic simulation. Increase of the acceleration time and initial tension have diminished the unstable movement of the loose side of belt.

A numerical analysis was perfomed to predict flow curves and dynamic recrystallization behaviors of Al-5%Mg alloy on the basis of results of hot compression tests. The hot compression tests were carried out in the ranges of 350-50$0^{\circ}C$ and 5$\times${{{{ {10 }^{-3 } }}}}~3$\times${{{{ {10 }^{0 } }}}}/sec to obtain the Zener-Hollmon parameter. In the modelling equation the effects os strain hardening and dynamic recrystallization were taken into consideration. A model for predicting the evolution of microstructure in Al-5%Mg alloy during thermomechanical processing was developed in terms of dynamic recrystallization phenomena, The microstructure model was combined with finite element modeling(FEM) to predict microstructure development Model predictions showed good agreement with microstructures obtained in compression tests.

It is of often important to accurately predict the flow-induced vibration or dynamic instability of a pipeline conveying internal high speed flow in advance, which requires a very accurate solution method. In this study, first the dynamic equations for the axial and transverse vibrations of a pipeline are reduced from a set of pipe-dynamic equations derived in the previous study and then the spectral element model is formulated. The accuracy of the spectral element method (SEM) is then verified by comparing its results with the results obtained by finite element method (FEM). It is shown that the present spectral element model provides very accurate solutions by using an extremely small number of degrees-of-freedom when compared with FEM. The dynamics of a sample pipeline is investigated with varying the axial tension and the speed of internal flow.

The drawability of AZ31B magnesium sheet is estimated at various temperatures($200,\;250,\;300,\;350\;and\;400^{\circ}C$), and forming speed(20, 50, 100mm/min), thickness(0.5, 0.8, 1.0, 1.4mm). The deep drawing process of circular cup and square cup were used in forming experiments. Experimental and FEM analysis are performed to investigate drawability and affection of controlled blank holding force. Through the controlled blank holding force, drawability was improved. Limit drawing ratio is increased from 2.1 to 3.0 in circular cup drawing and change of thickness is decreased from 16.3 to 6.9%. This result is verified by FEM analysis. Through the observation of microstructure, the main cause is investigated as a quantity of the dynamic recrystallization.

In this paper, an analysis of lift and lateral forces as a function of speed in electromagnetic suspension system (EMS) using the finite element method is presented. It is shown that, as in the case of the lift force, the lateral restoring force decreases with increasing speed, and the lateral dynamic characterisitic for lateral disturbance at low speed is different from that at high speed.

In recent years, the piping vibration in many Power Plants is being increased by the aged generating facilities due to a long time use. Generally, the pressure fluctuations associated with the flow-induced excitations in this case are broadband in nature. Mainly, the dominant sources of vibration are a vortex-shedding, plane waves and boundary layer turbulence. The peak level of the spectrum is proportional to the dynamic head. A severe disturbance in pipeline results in the generation of intense broadband internal sound waves which can propagate through the piping system. The characteristic frequencies of operating loads of 20%, 57%, 70%, 100% are 4 - 6 Hz and coincide with the results from impact hammering test and FEM analysis. We chose the wire energy absorbing rope restraint as a vibration reduction method after reviewing the various conditions such as site, installing space and economic cost etc. After installation, the vibration level was reduced about 54% in velocity.
