The response of multi-story building structures to lateral loads, mainly due to earthquake and wind, is investigated for preliminary design purposes. Emphasis is placed on structural systems consisting of rigid and braced steel frames. An attempt to gain a qualitative understanding of the influence of bending and shear stiffness distribution on the deformations of such structures is made. This is achieved by modeling the structure with a stiffness equivalent Timoshenko beam. It is observed that the conventional stiffness distribution, dictated by strength constraints, may not be the best to satisfy deflection criteria. This is particularly the case for slender structural systems with prevailing bending deformations, such as flexible braced frames. This suggests that a new approach to the design of such frames may be appropriate when serviceability governs. A pertinent strategy for preliminary design purposes is proposed.

An abnormal shape of Bathyraja brachyurops was first reported from the catch of a bottom trawl in the southwest Atlantic Ocean in June 2022. Both pectoral fins of the specimen did not fuse with the head, resulting in a horn-like structure separated from the sides of the eyes. Analysis of mitochondrial DNA cytochrome c oxidase subunit I sequences showed that our specimen was perfectly matched to Bathyraja brachyurops registered with the National Center for Biotechnology Information. Our specimen possessed the following morphological features: a pair of flexible but elongated and pointed horns on the head; rough dorsal disc, densely covered with numerous small denticles on the head, anterior margin of pectoral fins and median line of the disc; a thorn between the first and second dorsal fins; and a pair of large ocelli at the base of pectoral fins. Unlike the normal B. brachyurops, our specimen had a slender clasper and no nuchal thorns, which may be related to the morphological abnormality. The horn-like structure on the head may be owing to the lack of fusion between the pectoral fins and head during early embryonic development.

The structural response characteristics of Tension leg platforms(TLPs) in waves are examined for presenting the basic data for structural design of TLPs. The numerical approach is based on a combination of the three dimensional source distribution method and the structural response analysis method, in which the superstructure of TLP is assumed to be flexible instead of rigid. Hydrodynamic and hydrostatic forces on the submerged surface of a TLP have been accurately calculated by excluding the assumption of the slender body theory. The hydrodynamic interactions among TLP members, such as columns and pontoons, and the structural damping are included in structural analysis. The mooring forces are estimated as the sum of pretension of tendons and variational tension due to longitudinal displacements. Stiffness matrices of elastic beam elements connecting nodes are formulated by ordinary method of three dimensional frame analysis. The equation of motion about the whole structure is obtained by the sum of forces and moments acting on each nodes.

A numerical procedure is described for predicting the motion and structural responses of tension leg platforms(TLPs) in waves. The developed numerical approach is based on a combination of a three dimensional source distribution method and the dynamic response analysis method, in which the superstructure of TLPs is assumed to be flexible instead of rigid. Restoring forces by hydrostatic pressure on the submerged surface of a TLP have been accurately calculated by excluding the assumption of the slender body theory. The hydrodynamic interactions among TLP members, such as columns and pontoons, and the structural damping are included in the motion and structural analysis. The equations of motion of a whole structure are formulated using element-fixed coordinate systems which have the orgin at the nodes of the each hull element and move parallel to a space-fixed coordinate system. Numerical results are compared with the experimental and numerical ones, which are obtained in the literature, concerning the motion and structural responses of a TLP in waves. The results of comparison confirmed the validity of the proposed approach.

The Xiaolan channel super large bridge is unique in style and with greatest span in the world with a total length of 7686.57 m. The main bridge with spans arranged as 100m+220m+100m is a combined structure composed of prestressed concrete V-shape rigid frame and concrete-filled steel tubular flexible arch. First of all, the author compiles APDL command flow program by using the unit birth-death technique and establishes simulation calculation model in the whole construction process. The creep characteristics of concrete are also taken into account. The force ratio of the suspender, arch and beam is discussed. The authors conduct studies on the three-plate webs's rule of shear stress distribution, the box girder's longitudinal bending normal stress on every construction stage, meanwhile the distribution law of longitudinal bending normal stress and transverse bending normal stress of completed bridge's box girder. Results show that, as a new combined bridge, it is featured by: Girder and arch resist forces together; Moment effects of the structure are mainly presented as compressed arch and tensioned girder; The bridge type brings the girder and arch on resisting forces into full play; Great in vertical stiffness and slender in appearance.

이 논문에서는 내진상세가 적용되지 않은 RC골조의 지진 거동 특성을 파악하였다. 해석 대상 건물은 내진 규준의 적용을 받지 않고 중력하중만을 고려하여 설계되었다. 원형철근이 주철근으로 사용되었으며, 부재는 낮은 수준의 전단력을 견딜 수 있는 최소한의 스터럽이 사용되어 코어 부분의 구속효과는 거의 없다. 평면비정형성을 가진 건물의 경우, 푸쉬오버 해석을 통해서는 비틀림으로 인한 평면상에서 연단부의 손상집중을 파악할 수 없으므로 비선형 동적해석을 사용하는 것이 바람직하다. 섬유요소를 이용한 비선형 동적해석은 양방향 지진하중과 비틀림 거동의 영향을 받는 RC골조의 거동을 성공적으로 예측할 수 있었다. 하지만, 보다 진보된 응답 예측을 위해서는 부착 미끄러짐과 같은 보-기둥 접합부의 국부거동을 정밀하게 나타내는 모델링 요소의 개발이 필요하다.

건강한 무지개송어의 치어와 실험적으로 세균성 아가미병을 감염시킨 무지개송어의 치어에 있어서 아가미 조직과 그 병원균인 Flavobacterium branchiophila에 대하여 주사형 전자현미경(SEM)과 투과형 전자현미경(TEM)으로 관찰하였다. F branchiophila는 길이 $5{\sim}8{\mu}m$, 폭 약$0.5{\mu}m$의, 2~3균체가 서로 연결된 길고 가는 장간균으로서 균체의 주위에는 다수의 선모(pili)를 갖고있었다. 세균성 아가미병의 초기병소는 초미세 형태학적으로 이차새변의 비후에 의해 시작되며 병원균은 아가미 표면과 일정한 거리를 유지하며 부착되어 있었다. 주사형 전자현미경의 관찰에서 건강한 물고기의 아가미 표면은 미로와 같은 모양과 미세 섬모상의 돌기로 특정지어 질 수 있는 상피세포가 보이나 실험적으로 감염된 아가미 표면에서는 새변의 선단에서 부터의 증생 융합과 함께 표면의 미세구조가 붕괴되어 잘 관찰되지 않았다. F branchiophila는 표면에 실뭉치와 같이 엉클어져 부착되어 있었으며 5% 식염처리후에는 그 형태가 일정치 않았다.
