A procedure is presented for calculating the magnitude and shape of impact pulses in a vibro-impact system when an arbitrary input force is applied to a point in the system. The procedure utilizes the condition that the displacements of two contacting point in the primary and secondary system are the same during a contacting period. The displacements of those points are calculated numerically through the convolution integral which involve the impulse response functions and applied forces. The validity of the calculation procedure is demonstrated by using it to calculated the impact forces of a simple system where a theoretical solution is known and also of systems for which other researchers have published results. The agreement between the results derived by the numerical method and the theoretical and also some published results is good.

The signals that can be obtained from rotating machines often convey the information of machine. For example, if the machine under investigation has faults, then these signals often have pulse signals, embedded in noise. Therefore the ability to detect the fault signal in noise is major concern of fault diagnosis of rotating machine, In this paper, minimum variance cepstrum (MV cepstrum) . which can easily detect impulse in noise, has been applied to detect the type of faults of ball bearing system. To test the performance of this technique. various experiments have been performed for ball bearing elements that have man made faults. Results show that minimum variance cepstrum can easily detect the periodicity due to faults and also shows the pattern of excitation by the faults.

In this paper, impulse-momentum theory was coupled to a constitutive equation both for implementing quasi-static and impact characteristics of EPP (Expanded polypropylene). Also, parameters which have physical meanings were expressed as functions of relative density. Simultaneous nonlinear Newton-Raphson method was applied to find the proper values for parameters in the constitutive equation along with quasi-static test data. Results from the impulse-momentum theory coupled constitutive equation showed good agreement with experimental data and the potential to be applied to different material type polymeric foam.

This paper introduces a technique for generating an appropriate template signal via modeling of minimum-phase stable ARMA (Auto-Regressive Moving Average) system for coherent impulse communication systems. It has been well known that the transmitted impulse signal becomes deformed because of dispersive and resonant characteristics. Accordingly, in spite of using ideal template signal at the correlator, these impairments degrade overall performance attributed to low level of coherence. To increase the degree of coherence, our proposed scheme realizes A3U system derived by Gaussian pulse signal, which simulates the overall characteristic of transfer function in between transmit and receive wideband antennas so as to generate an appropriate template signal in a form of output. The performance of proposed scheme will be shown in results from computer simulations to verify its affirmative impact on impulse communication system with regarding several distinctively shaped antennas.

We developed a surface acoustic wave (SAW) computer aided design (CAD) for mobile communication using Kaier window function. The systems are composed of modules for designing apodization weighted IDT-uniform IDT, withdrawal weighted IDT-withdrawal weighted IDT, and resonator type. The design of SAW bandpass with center frequencies from 222MHz to 343MHz were simulated by the developed CAD system. Although the method proposed in this paper is formulated primarily for SAW filters, it is equally applicable to finite impulse response (FIR) digital filter design.

This study examines the competitiveness and cooperativeness among the container ports in East Asia by analyzing their monthly dynamics in eight years (2008-2015). Time series data on container throughput divided into origin and destination (O/D), such as the top six Chinese ports and the transshipment (T/S) ports such as Hong Kong, Busan, and Singapore, are computed with two methods based on the Vector Error Correction Model (VECM). The first Granger causality test results show that Busan T/S has significant bilateral relations with three Chinese O/D ports; and significant unidirectional relations with three other O/D ports. Shenzhen port has significant bilateral relations with Singapore, and has a significant unidirectional relation with Hong Kong port. Co-integrating test results showed that Busan holds negative co-integration with all Chinese O/D ports. Impulse response function (IRF) results show an opposite direction between paired ports. The ratios of the impulse from T/S ports are significantly high to one another in the short-run, but its power declines as time passes. The ratio of the impulse from the Chinese ports to T/S ports is less significant in the short-run period, however, it becomes more significant as time passes. The significance of most shocks was high in the second period, but was diluted after the sixth period.

On August 4, 2020, 2750 tons of ammonium nitrate stored in a storage warehouse at the Port of Beirut exploded. This explosion is said to be the largest ammonium nitrate explosion ever. By applying the TNT equivalency method, TNT equivalent amount corresponding to the explosion energy of 2750 tons of ammonium nitrate was calculated, and it is found to be 856 tons. Overpressure and impulse were calculated in a range up to 3600 m from the blast using the Kingery-Bulmash explosion parameter calculator tool. As the distance from the explosion center increases, the overpressure and impulse decrease exponentially, but the overpressure decreases more significantly, showing that overpressure is more affected by distance than the impact. As a result of applying the damage criteria to evaluate the effects of overpressure and impulse on the structure, the critical distances at which partial collapse, major damage, and minor damage to the structure occur are found to be approximately 500, 800, and 2200 m from the center of the explosion, respectively. The probit function was applied to evaluate the probability of damage to structures and human body. The points where the probability of collapse, major damage, minor damage, and breakage of window-panes to structures are greater than 50% are found to be approximately 500, 810, 2200, and 3200 m, respectively. For people within 200 m from the center of the explosion, the probability of death due to lung damage is more than 99%, and the 50% probability of eardrum rupture is approximately 300 m. The points with a 100% probability of death due to skull rupture and whole body impact due to whole body displacement are evaluated to be 300 and 100 m, respectively.

It is important to estimate exactly wave forces acting on various types of offshore structures under the severe environmental conditions in the ocean site. This paper presents an easy experimental method which deals with transient waves. The proposed scheme made it possible to generate breaking waves at any position in the wave tank by changing the maximum slope of the component waves. The theoretical and experimental methods were investigated by generating concentrated waves which acted on a single and multiple cylinders. The waves forces increased rapidly when the models encountered breaking waves. The theoretical results underestimates the forces due to breaking waves. Therefore, the effects due to breaking waves should be considered carefully in the design process of a structure under the influence of breaking waves.
