Automated design of large structures requires efficient and accurate optimization algorithms because of a large number of design variables and design constraints. The objective of this study is to examine the characteristics of the Kreisselmeier -Steinhauser envelope function and to investigate va tidily of accumulating constraint functions into a small number of constraint functions or even into a single constraint function. The commercial package DOT is adopted as a local optimizer. The optimum results using the envelope function are compared with those of the conventional method for a number of numerical examples and the differences between them are shown to be negligible.

This study was performed to determine the characteristics of particleboard made from three-months-old bamboo, (Phyllostachys nigra var henonis Stapf) grown in Damyang district, Korea. Total 60 particleboards were manufactured with 1% of liquid wax emulsion using urea-formaldehyde resin content 9%,11% and 13%, respectively. The particle boards consisted of three layers, in which face layer had the same proportion of a weight 25% of the particleboard each. And the core layer had a weight 50% of the board. The core layer and face layer had the particle dimension passing 6 mesh (3.35 mm), 12 mesh (1.70 mm), respectively. The study was carried out to determine the effect of the growing time of 3 months and 3 years on particleboard properties. The physical and mechanical properties of boards were measured and compared to the Korean standard (KS) requirements of particle boards. The results were as follows; 1. The longer the growing time, the higher the density of bamboo. Density of the upper part of bamboo showed higher than that of lower part. 2. Density and moisture content of the two particle boards did not show significant differences. Three-months-old bamboo particleboard gave higher thickness swelling than three-years-old bamboo particleboard. Bamboo particleboard passed the thickness swelling test of KS. 3. The static bending and internal bond strength of three-months-old bamboo particleboard were higher than those of three-years-old bamboo. Increase of resin contents in bamboo particleboard increased bending and internal bond strength, proportionally. Strength properties of bamboo particle board were above KS. 4. Formaldehyde emission of all the bamboo particleboards satisfied E₂ level (5.0 mg/L) of KS F 3104.

Tests are conducted to analyze the compaction characteristics of domestic river sand used frequently for backfill in construction of electrical pipeline. As a result of test, the range of specific gravity of sand is found to be in between 2.63 and 2.67, and of maximum dry weight of sand is in between $1.70g/cm^3\;and\;1.86g/cm^3$. Also, the optimum moisture content is found to be in between 11.3% and 13.8%. The variability of compaction degree with respect to compaction energy is well captured by hyperbolic function.

This paper describes an efficient implementation of ARIA crypto algorithm which is a KS (Korea Standards) block cipher algorithm. The ARIA crypto-processor supports three master key lengths of 128/192/256-bit specified in the standard. To reduce hardware complexity, a hardware sharing is employed, which shares round function in encryption/decryption module with key initialization module. It reduces about 20% of gate counts when compared with straightforward implementation. The ARIA crypto-processor is verified by FPGA implementation, and synthesized with a 0.13-${\mu}m$ CMOS cell library. It has 33,218 gates and the estimated throughput is about 640 Mbps at 100 MHz.

Experiments of alcohol fermentation of the yeast,K. fragi1is CBS 1555 were performed to obtain the following results. In these experiments, the initial concentrations of sugar which was composed of inulin and fructose as weight ratio of one to one were 30, 50, 75, 100 and 150g/l and the initial densities of the microorganism were less than 0.5g/l, 10g/1 to 15g/1, and 50g/l. The functional relationship among specific growthrates, sugar concentrations, and alcohol concentrations could be expressed by Aiba-shoda equation and the specific growth rate represented the trend that decreased with increase in the initial concentration of the microorganism. Also, $\mu$max and Ks of Monod's equation could be expressed as the function of initial cell concentration like the following equations. $\mu$max=0.8-0.008X Ks=0.54X+8 In the region that sugar, alcohol and cell concentrations were 10g/1 to 120g/l, 0g/l to 60g/l and 0.5g/l to 50g/l respectively, the differences between the experimental values and the calculated ones for specific growth rate approached to 40% with respect to experimental values at the worst cases, but in most cases, those were distributed in the range of less than 20%.

Purpose: To evaluate the blue-light blocking ratio and luminous transmittance of blue-light blocking lenses using the blue-light hazard function as specified in international standard. Methods: In order to calculate the blue-light blocking ratio and luminous transmittance for a total of 41 blue-light blocking lenses from 8 manufacturers, UV-Vis spectrophotometer was used for measuring the spectral transmittance of wavelengths from 380 to 780 nm. Blue-light blocking ratio was calculated using blue-light hazard function as specified in ANSI Z80.3:2010 and ISO 13666(or Korean Standard KS B ISO 13666:2004). Results: The range of the blue-light blocking ratio was from 9.3 to 96.8%, the range of the transmittance from 53.5 to 92.7%, and the range of the luminous transmittance from 58.0% to 98.1%. In general the blue-light blocking lens prepared by coating tended to have a higher luminous transmittance, while those prepared by tinting a higher blue-light blocking ratio. Conclusions: The behavior of the spectral distribution of lenses showed the possibility of the performance improvement in the blue-light blocking lenses. Manufactures need to acquire their own technology that can evaluate the performance of blue-light blocking lens based in international standard.

Surplus soil is commonly used at construction sites, because suitable fill material is not always immediately available and leads to additional costs. However, most surplus soils do not meet the requirement of suitable fill material to achieve the stability and strength of embankments. In this study, Proctor compaction tests and field compaction tests were performed by installing geosynthetics to resolve the problems caused by compacting unsuitable soils. Compaction energy and the number of geosynthetics were changed under the type A- and D- and type A Proctor compaction tests (KS F 2312), respectively. The field compaction testing using geosynthetics was performed on surplus soils of high water content. Optimum water content and maximum dry density of compacted soil decreased and increased by reinforcing geosynthetics, respectively. Compaction curves behaved with geosynthetics as the compaction curves behaved with higher compaction energy. Efficient compaction was possible because the compaction energy increased to 2.10 and 2.71 times the compaction energy required to achieve the same maximum dry density with one and two geosynthetic layer(s), respectively. Furthermore, field compaction tests verified that efficient compaction was possible because the dry density of unsuitable surplus soils of high water content was increased by reinforcing geosynthetics.

강우빈도해석을 위해서는 확률분포선정이 우선적으로 이루어져야 한다. 우리나라에서는 사용상의 편리상, 기존 해석결과와의 연속성 등을 이유로 Gumbel 확률분포가 가장 일반적으로 활용되고 있다. 그러나, 분포형 선정에 따른 확률강수량의 차이가 크게 발생한다는 점에서 단순히 해석상의 편리성을 기준으로 분포형 선정이 이루어지는 것은 바람직하지 않다. 특히, 우리나라에서 강우빈도해석 시 분포형 선정은 형식적인 수준에 그치고 있으며, 주로 KS검정, 검정 등 적합도 검정을 통해 고려된 분포형의 통계적 유의성만을 평가하고 있다. 그러나, 최적 분포형 선정이라는 관점에서 이러한 유의성 검정보다는 정량적인 지표를 기준으로 확률분포형 선정이 이루어지는 것이 적합할 것으로 판단된다. 즉, 자료의 설명력이 가장 우수한 분포를 정량적 지표를 기준으로 추정하는 것이 수문통계학적으로 적합성을 갖는다. 이러한 점에서 본 연구에서는 우도함수, BIC 및 AIC를 기준으로 우리나라 주요 강수지점에서 대해서 최적 분포형을 선정하고, 기존 Gumbel 분포를 기준으로 산정된 확률강수량과의 양적차이를 평가해보고자 한다.

Induction motors are used in many areas to transform electrical energy to mechanical energy. In the design of an induction motor, not only energy efficiency but also noise becomes an important factor. To effectively address the noise problem, it will be convenient if one can see where and how noise is generated and propagated. In this study sound radiation by an induction motor is visualized using cylindrical acoustic holography. To minimize the bias error by window effect Minimum Error Window(MEW) is used. Its performance is verified by numerical simulations. Based on these theoretical understanding, sound pressure measurement with an induction motor are performed. Not only sound radiation are visualized but sound pressure level and sound power level are also estimated. Results show that the main source is located at nearly bottom part of the motor and the total sound pressure level is 49dB, which satisfies the guideline value suggested by the KS C 4202.
