In this paper, we prove that minimal hypersurfaces when n $\geq$ 3 and nonzero constant mean curvature hypersurfaces when n $\geq$ 2 foliated by spheres in parallel horizontal hyperplanes in $\mathbb{H}^n{\times}\mathbb{R}$ must be rotationally symmetric.

In highly elevated piers and long span beams, a hollow section is often used to reduce the self-weight and increase the flexural rigidity of members. Numerical analysis was conducted to obtain the moment-curvature curves and curvature ductility factor for the RC hollow section beams under a range of hollow portion sizes and reinforcement conditions in the upper flange and web. The curvature ductility factor was constantly maintained until the hollow portion size($b_i/b_o/h_i/h_o$) was less than or equal to 0.5. The curvature ductility factor decreased sharply if ($b_i/b_o/h_i/h_o$) was 0.7 or more. The curvature ductility factor of the beam decreased if reinforcement was provided in the web of the RC hollow section beam. To obtain the same level of the ductility factor as the singly reinforced section, the reinforcement should be provided in the upper flange as much as the web reinforcement.

Based on a numerical method to analyse the full-range behaviour of prestressed concrete beams with unbonded tendons, parametric studies are carried out to investigate the influence of 11 parameters on the curvature ductility of unbonded prestressed concrete (UPC) beams. It is found that, among various parameters studied, the depth to prestressing tendons, depth to non-prestressed tension steel, partial prestressing ratio, yield strength of non-prestressed tension steel and concrete compressive strength have substantial effects on the curvature ductility. Although the curvature ductility of UPC beams is affected by a large number of factors, rather simple equations can be formulated for reasonably accurate estimation of curvature ductility. Conversion factors are introduced to cope with the difference in partial safety factors, shapes of equivalent stress blocks and the equations to predict the ultimate tendon stress in BS8110, EC2 and ACI318. The same equations can also be used to provide conservative estimates of ductility of UPC beams with compression steel.

Let M be a linear Weingarten spacelike hypersurface in a locally symmetric Lorentz space with R = aH + b, where R and H are the normalized scalar curvature and the mean curvature, respectively. In this paper, we give some conditions for the complete hypersurface M to be totally umbilical.

Recently, aluminum is widely used to reduce the vehicle weight. Aluminum curved extruded products are used for the design of automotive frame parts. This study focuses on the determination of process condition fur automotive bumper beam with various curvatures. In this study, a curvature prediction model has been proposed considering the geometric relationship and the characteristic of the curvature extrusion equipment. Using the proposed model and FE analysis, the appropriated process condition was determined to produce the bumper beam. Finally, curvature extrusion experiment was carried out to verify the effectiveness of the proposed curvature prediction model and the process condition.

The conductance of a microscopic constriction in a two-dimensional electron gas is obtained as a function of both the constriction width and curvature. When the quantized conductance G at plateaus is given by the channel number Nc times the quantum unit 2e2/h, Nc is found to be a function of not only the width and but also the curvature. At a given W, Nc increases by one whenever the constriction curvature decreases by about a certain value. Until the shape smoothness becomes comparable to the two parallel boundaries, there exist more channels avaliable for conduction in a smaller-curvature constriction than in a larger-curvature one. This result is very interesting because Nc has been considered to depend on the width W only. this reflects that the number of the quantized transverse levels depend o both the constriction width and curvature in a two-dimensional electron gas.

This paper proposes the threshold value selection for surface classification of 3-dimensional objects. Pre-existing method which uses the H-curvature and K-curvature has limitation in the practical threshold value selection. For this, this paper proposes the threshold value selection by the statistical method. Finally, the effectiveness of this paper demonstrated by experiment.

We introduce the notions of h-v-semi-slant submersions and almost h-v-semi-slant submersions from almost quaternionic Hermitian manifolds onto Riemannian manifolds. We obtain characterizations, investigate the integrability of distributions, the geometry of foliations, and a decomposition theorem. We find a condition for such submersions to be totally geodesic. We also obtain an inequality of a h-v-semi-slant submersion in terms of squared mean curvature, scalar curvature, and h-v-semi-slant angle. Finally, we give examples of such maps.

This paper propose on the determination of threshold values for extracting shape information of the objects. First, surface curvatures such as mean curvature and gaussian curvature is calculated from given range data. And then local surface regions are classified into the one of 8 primitives by using the sign of mean curvature H and gaussian curvature K. Also from the statistical viewpoint. the range of the zero of H and K in the range is obtained through the analysis of the relation between mean curvature and gaussian curvature. Finally, the effectiveness of the proposed mithod in this paper is demonstrated by comparing with a case, where the zero threshold is arbitrarily obtained.

Let S be the Ricci curvature of an n-dimensional compact minimal totally real submanifold M of a quaternion projective space $HP^n (c)$ of quaternion sectional curvature c. We proved that if $S \leq \frac{16}{3(n -2)}c$, then either $S \equiv \frac{4}{n - 1}c$ (i.e. M is totally geodesic or $S \equiv \frac{16}{3(n - 2)}c$. All compact minimal totally real submanifolds of $HP^n (c)$ satisfy in $S \equiv \frac{16}{3(n - 2)}c$ are determined.
