This study was designed to get the informations of the mesiodistal axial inclinations of the posterior teeth and of the relationships between these and other angular measurements of facial bony structures in normal occlusion and malocclusion groups using lateral roentgenocephalograms. The subjects consisted of 73 normal occlusions (31 males 42 females), 38 Class II Division 1 malocclusions (17 males 21 females) and 47 Class III malocclusions (19 males 28 females). The findings of this study are as follows : 1. In mandible, the posterior teeth axes of Class II Division 1 malocclusion group were inclined more mesially and those of Class III malocclusion group were inclined more distally than normal occlusion group. In maxilla, Class II Division 1 malocclusion group showed more distal inclination and Class III malocclusion group showed more mesial inclinaton of 1st, 2nd premolars and more distal inclination of 1st, 2nd molars than those of the normal occlusion group. 2. There was a tendency for teeth axes to maintain nearly the same inclination in relation to occlusal plane irrespective of various OMA and OPA in each group. 3. F M A, P M A and O P A were the largest in Class II Division 1 malocclusion group and O M A, GoA were the largest in Class 111 malocclusion group. 4. There were high correlationships between mandibular teeth inclinations related to mandibular plane and 4 angular measurements except OPA, and between maxillary teeth inclinations related to palatal plane and OPA.

This paper presents the design factor of an overhead transmission tower structure in order to reduce the tower weight. The behaviour of transmission tower structures are affected by the horizontal angle of the tower structure, the equivalent wind pressure group, the slope of the main post of the tower, the separation of the internode and the use of high-strength materials in their construction. Tower weight can be reduced by approximately 30% reduce weight by means of optimal design based on a consideration of all the above factors. In addition, the design of the foundation of the tower with the shear key installation to increase horizontal support together with a modified angle of inclination to the ground can reduce by about 37% the amount of concrete used during construction. The area of ground disturbed by the construction of the tower foundation can thus be reduced by approximately 33%. Therefore it is possible to build an environmently-friendly T/L tower with the mechanical properties of existing towers.

This paper describes wind investigations for the Leaning Tower of Pisa which were conducted as part of an overall evaluation of its behaviour. Normally a short, stiff and heavy building would not be a candidate for detailed wind analyses. However, because of extremely high soil pressures developed from its inclination, there has been increasing concern that environmental loading such as wind actions could combine with existing conditions to cause the collapse of the tower. The studies involved wind assessment at the site as a function of wind direction, analysis of historical wind data to determine extreme wind probabilities of occurrence, estimation of structural properties, analytical and boundary layer wind tunnel investigations of wind loads and evaluation of the response with special concern for loads in the direction of inclination of the tower and significant wake effects from the neighboring cathedral for critical wind directions. The conclusions discuss the role of wind on structural safety, the precision of results attained and possible future studies involving field measurements aimed at validating or improving the analytical and boundary layer wind tunnel based assessments.

석션 앵커는 비교적 간편한 설치 방식과 높은 안정성으로 인해 부유식 구조물을 고정하기 위한 기초로 사용된다. 최근, 허용 변위가 작은 부유식 구조물이 증가함에 따라, 석션 앵커의 유발 변위 평가에 대한 수요가 높아졌다. 하지만, 기존 석션 앵커의 연구는 앵커 지지력 평가에 초점을 두었으며, 앵커의 변위에 관한 연구는 중점적으로 수행되지 않았다. 특히, 경사진 하중을 받는 석션 앵커의 주된 변위인, 회전 거동을 평가한 연구는 매우 부족한 실정이다. 따라서 본 논문에서는 경사 인발 하중이 작용하는 석션 앵커의 회전 거동을 모형실험을 통해 비교 및 분석 하였다. 모형실험은 센트리퓨지 실험 장비를 사용하였으며, 실험 변수로는 하중의 경사도, 앵커의 크기 및 종횡비가 고려되었다. 하중-회전 변위 곡선을 산정하여, 실험 변수에 따른 석션 앵커의 회전량을 비교하였다. 실험 결과, 석션 앵커의 회전 거동은 하중의 경사도에 큰 영향을 받았으며, 앵커의 크기 및 종횡비에 따른 회전량의 차이는 크지 않았다.

In the last few years, many structural monitoring studies have been performed using different techniques to measure structures of different scales such as buildings, dams or bridges. One of the mostly used tools are GPS instruments, which have been utilized in various combinations with accelerometers and some other conventional sensors. In the current study, observation series were recorded for 8 hours with GPS receivers (NovAtel) and Inclination Measurement Sensors mounted on a television tower in Istanbul, Turkey. Each series of observations collected from two different sensors were transformed into a single coordinate system (Local Topocentric Coordinates System). The positional changes of the tower were calculated from the GPS and the inclination data. These changes were plotted in two dimensions (2D) on the same graphic. Thus, the possibility of comparison and analysis were found using the data from both the GPS and the Inclinometer complement each other, in the real test area. The positional changes of the tower were modeled for further examination. As a result, the movement of the tower within an area of $1{\times}1cm^2$ was observed. Based on the results, it can be concluded that inclinometers can be used for monitoring the structural behavior of the tower.

This paper proposes an integrated safety assessment method that can take multiple sources data into consideration based on a data fusion approach. Data cleaning using the Kalman filter method (KF) was conducted first for monitoring data from each sensor. The inclination data from the four tilt sensors of the same monitoring section have been associated to synchronize in time. Secondly, the finite element method (FEM) model was established to physically correlate the external forces with various structural responses of the shield tunnel, including the measured inclination. Response surface method (RSM) was adopted to express the relationship between external forces and the structural responses. Then, the external forces were updated based on the in situ monitoring data from tilt sensors using the extended Kalman filter method (EKF). Finally, mechanics parameters of the tunnel lining were estimated based on the updated data to make an integrated safety assessment. An application example of the proposed method was presented for an urban tunnel during a nearby deep excavation with multiple source monitoring plans. The change of tunnel convergence, bolt stress and segment internal forces can also be calculated based on the real time deformation monitoring of the shield tunnel. The proposed method was verified by predicting the data using the other three sensors in the same section. The correlation among different monitoring data has been discussed before the conclusion was drawn.

Well-ordered porous materials are very promising in orthopedics since they allow tailoring the mechanical properties. Finite element (FE) analysis is commonly used to evaluate the mechanical behavior of well-ordered porous materials. However, FE results generally differ importantly from experimental data. In the present article, three types of manufacturing irregularities were characterized on an additive manufactured porous titanium sample having a simple cubic unit-cell: strut diameter variation, strut inclination and fractured struts. These were included in a beam FE model. Results were compared with experimental data in terms of the apparent elastic modulus (Eap) and apparent yield strength (SY,ap). The combination of manufacturing irregularities that yielded the closest results to experimental data was determined. The idealized FE model resulted in an Eap one order of magnitude larger than experimental data and a SY,ap almost twice the experimental values. The strut inclination and fractured struts showed the strongest effects on Eap and SY,ap, respectively. Combining the three manufacturing irregularities produced the closest results to experimental data. The model also performed well when applied to samples having different structural dimensions. We recommend including the three proposed manufacturing irregularities in the FE models to predict the mechanical behavior of such porous structures.

Heritage timber structures represent the history and culture of a nation. These structures have been inherited from previous generations; however, they inevitably exhibit deterioration over time, potentially leading to structural deficiencies. Structural Health Monitoring (SHM) offers the potential to assess operational anomalies, deterioration, and damage through processing and analysis of data collected from transducers and sensors mounted on the structure. This paper reports on the design and implementation of a long-term SHM system on the Feiyun Wooden Pavilion in China, a three-story timber building built more than 500 years ago. The principles and features of the design and implementation of SHM systems for heritage timber buildings are systematically discussed. In total, 104 sensors of 6 different types are deployed on the structure to monitor the environmental effects and structural responses, including air temperature and humidity, wind speed and direction, structural temperatures, strain, inclination, and acceleration. In addition, integrated data acquisition and transmission subsystem using a newly developed software platform are implemented. Selected preliminary statistical and correlation analysis using one year of monitoring data are presented to demonstrate the condition assessment capability of the system based on the monitoring data.
