This paper discusses a new constitutive model called the high-rate brittle microplane (HRBM) model and also presents the details of a new software package called the Virtual Materials Laboratory (VML). The VML software package was developed to address the challenges of fitting complex material models such as the HRBM model to material property test data and to study the behavior of those models under a wide variety of stress- and strain-paths. VML employs Continuous Evolutionary Algorithms (CEA) in conjunction with gradient search methods to create automatic fitting algorithms to determine constitutive model parameters. The VML code is used to fit the new HRBM model to a well-characterized conventional strength concrete called WES5000. Finally, the ability of the new HRBM model to provide high-fidelity simulations of material property experiments is demonstrated by comparing HRBM simulations to laboratory material property data.

Turbulent flow calculations are performed for the two modern practical VLCCs with the sable forebody and the slightly different afterbody, i.e. KVLCC and KVLCC2. Three $\textsc{k}-\varepsilon$ turbulence models are tested to investigate the differences caused by the turbulence models. The calculated results around the two VLCC hull forms using O-O grid topology and profile-fitted surface meshes are compared to the measured data from towing tank experiment. The realizable $\textsc{k}-\varepsilon$model provided realistic wake distribution with hook-like shape, while the standard and RNG-based $\textsc{k}-\varepsilon$models failed. It is very encouraging to see that the CFD with relatively simple turbulence closure can tell the difference quantitatively as well as qualitatively for the two hull forms with stern frameline modification.

In this paper, the forced vibration of damped composite beam with I-type section was analyzed. The damping material was assumed to have complex Young's modulus. Damped composite beam structure could be modeled using equivalent beam elements with less D.O.F. rather than solid elements. Finite element method for 6 D.O.F. equivalent beam element was formulated and programmed using complex values. The results of frequency responses revealed good agreement with those of NASTRAN in both Euler beam model and Timoshenko beam model.

In this study capacitance and dielectric loss factor were measured with low-voltage signal and the simulation of equivalent circuits for the data were conducted. As the result it was showed that the equivalent circuit model considered the gram-boundary structure with semiconducting layer, dielectric layer and depletion layer was well approximated with the observed data. Various parameters were determined by a optimum curve-fitting method and could be used to analyze the varistor-voltages and the nonlinear coefficient of varistors. It also seems that the proposed equivalent circuit model will be adopted for other BL type varistors.

Mechanical moduli, such as Young's modulus (E), Bulks modulus (B), Shear modulus (S), longitudinal modulus (L), Poisson's ratio (σ) and micro Hardness (H) were theoretically calculated for (100-x)TeO₂+x MgO glasses, where x = 10, 20, 30, 40 and 45 mol%, based on the Makishima-Mackenzie model. The estimated results showed that the mechanical moduli and the microhardness of the glasses were improved with the increase of the MgO contents in the TM glasses, while Poisson's ratio decreased with the increase in MgO content. Moreover, the radiation shielding capacity was evaluated for the studied TM glasses. Thus, the linear attenuation coefficient (LAC), mass attenuation coefficient (MAC), transmission factor (TF) and half-value thickness (𝚫_0.5) were simulated for gamma photon energies between 0.344 and 1.406 MeV. The simulated results showed that glass TM10 with 10 mol % MgO possess the highest LAC and varied in the range between 0.259 and 0.711 cm^-1, while TM45 glass with 45 mol % MgO possess the lowest LAC and vary in the range between 0.223 and 0.587 cm^-1 at gamma photon energies between 0.344 and 1.406 MeV. Furthermore, the BXCOM program was applied to calculate the effective atomic number (Z_eff), equivalent atomic number (Z_eq) and buildup factors (EBF and EABF) of the glasses. The effective removal cross-section for the fast neutrons (ERCSFN, ∑_R) was also calculated theoretically. The received data depicts that the lowest ∑_R was achieved for TM10 glasses, where ∑_R = 0.0193 cm² g^-1, while TM45 possesses the highest ERCSFN where ∑_R = 0.0215 cm² g^-1.

오늘날 우리 주변에는 규모를 가늠할 수 없을 정도로 많은 정보와 데이터가 생산되는 '빅데이터(Big Data)'의 시대가 도래 하였으며, 그 중요성이 날로 커지고 있다. 교통분야에서는 전통적인 통행기반교통모형(Trip-Based Model)인 4단계 교통수요추정법의 한계가 드러나고 있으며, 활동기반교통모형(Activity-Based Model)을 이용한 수요 추정 방법이 교통계획에 새로운 패러다임으로 떠오르고 있다. 교통은 사람이나 물류의 공간상의 시간적 이동을 의미한다고 봤을 때 공간데이터와 밀접한 관련이 있다. 따라서 공간정보를 포함하고 있는 SNS를 대상으로 시계열적 공간정보를 추출하고, 이를 현재의 통행기반교통모형(Trip-Based Model) O/D와 비교 분석하여 그 특성을 파악하고 유용성을 검증하였다. 또한, 활동기반교통모형(Activity-Based Model)의 분석자료를 구축하여 교통시뮬레이터 프로그램을 이용해 시뮬레이션을 수행하고 그 결과를 고찰하였다. 연구결과 다수의 활동기반 교통모형 분석자료를 구축할 수 있었으며, 이번 연구를 통해 교통분야 빅데이터 활용의 기술적 한계를 극복할 수 있는 가능성을 확인하였고, 향후 발전방향을 모색하는 기회가 되었다.

Oxomemazine이 muscarinic receptor subtypes에 대하여 선택성을 가지는지에 관한 지견을 얻고자, 대뇌, 심실 및 회장 muscarinic receptor에 대한 oxomemazine의 결합성질을 조사, 비교하였다. $[^3H]QNB$ 포화결합실험 결과 세 조직의 muscarinic receptor는 $[^3H]QNB$에 대해서는 affinity가 약 60pM인 단일 receptor인 것으로 추정되었다. 대뇌에서 pirenzepine과 oxomemazine의 $[^3H]QNB$ 결합억제에 대한 Hill coefficient는 각각 0.67 및 0.8로서 대뇌에는 이들 약물에 대하여 affinity가 서로 다른 두 종류의 muscarinic receptor subtypes가 존재하는 것으로 나타났으며, pirenzepine에 대한 high $affinity(M_1)$와 $low affinity(M_2)$ receptor 및 oxomemazine에 대한 high $affinity(O_H)$와 $low\;affinity (O_L)$ receptor의 분포비는 약 60:40 및 40:60이었고, $M_1$과 $M_2$ receptor에 대한 pirenzepine의 $K_i$치는 16nM 및 431 nM, $O_H$와 $O_L$, receptor에 대한 oxomemazine 의 $K_i$치는 80nM 및 1350nM이었다. 그러나 심실과 회장에서 이들 약물의 $[^3H]QNB$ 결합억제에 대한 Hill coefficient는 1에 가까웠다. 심실과 회장 muscarinic receptor에 대한 pirenzepine의 $K_i$치는 850nM 및 250nM, oxomemazine의 $K_i$치는 1460nM 및 670nM로서 대피에서 이들 약물의 low affinity receptor에 대한 $K_i$치에 가까웠다. 즉, muscarinic receptor에 대한 affinity면에서 oxomemazine은 pirenzepine과 같이 대뇌에서 가장 높았으며, 회장에 대해서는 중등도였고, 심실에서 가장 낮았다. 이로 보아 oxomemazine은 $M_1\;receptor$에 선택성이 있는 것으로 추정된다.

We performed temperature dependent current-voltage (I-V) measurements to characterize the electrical properties of $Au/Al_2O_3/n-Ge$ metal-insulator-semiconductor (MIS) diodes prepared with and without $H_2O$ prepulse treatment by atomic layer deposition (ALD). By considering the thickness of the $Al_2O_3$ interlayer, the barrier height for the treated sample was found to be 0.61 eV, similar to those of Au/n-Ge Schottky diodes. The thermionic emission (TE) model with barrier inhomogeneity explained the final state of the treated sample well. Compared to the untreated sample, the treated sample was found to have improved diode characteristics for both forward and reverse bias conditions. These results were associated with the reduction of charge trapping and interface states near the $Ge/Al_2O_3$ interface.

In order to establish optimal dosage schedules and withdrawal times for sulfamethazine(SMZ) in pigs, pharmacokinetic and tissue distribution experiments were conducted in pigs. For comparative purposes, tissue depletion kinetics are also studied in rats. From three pigs administered with SMZ i.v., the pharmacokinetic profile of SMZ in two pigs was adequately described by a one-compartment open model whereas that in one pig was patterned after a two-compartment open model. Volume of distribution(Vd) was 0.48~0.57 L/kg and biological half-life($t_{1/2}$) was 11.8-16.8 h. From three pigs dosed with SMZ p.o., pharmacokinetic profile was explainable with a one-compartment open model. Time to reach maximum SMZ concentration in serum (Tmax) was 2.8 h, 3.2 h and 7.5 h. Elimination half-life was 2.8-7.5 h. The descending order in concentration of SMZ was plsama > kidney > liver > lung > heart > pancreas > spleen > duodenum > ileum > brain > adipsoe tissue from three pigs sacrificed at 5h, 29h and 54h after the administration of SMZ, p.o.. The protein binding of SMZ in pigs was 55.2%($2.5{\mu}g/ml$), 71.5% ($5{\mu}g/kg$) and 71.5%($10{\mu}g/ml$). The mean systemic bioavailability (F) of SMZ p.o. was 49.1 %. Meanwhile the pharmacokinetic profile of SMZ in rats was adequately described by a one-compartment open model. Absorption of SMZ p.o. in the rat was very rapid. In conclusion, the oral optimal dosage regimen of SMZ for pigs was the initial dose of 45.7 mg/kg followed by the maintenance dose of 30.2 mg/kg for high specific pathogens to SMZ. The time to reach below the stipulated residual allowable concentration (0.1 ppm) was calculated 93 h after oral administration of 200 mg/kg recommended by manufactureres.

The paper presents a methodology to model three-dimensional reinforced concrete members by means of embedded discontinuity elements based on the Continuum Strong Discontinuous Approach (CSDA). Mixture theory concepts are used to model reinforced concrete as a 3D composite material constituted of concrete with long fibers (rebars) bundles oriented in different directions embedded in it. The effects of the rebars are modeled by phenomenological constitutive models devised to reproduce the axial non-linear behavior, as well as the bond-slip and dowel action. The paper presents the constitutive models assumed for the components and the compatibility conditions chosen to constitute the composite. Numerical analyses of existing experimental reinforced concrete members are presented, illustrating the applicability of the proposed methodology.
