In this research work, the hygrothermal and mechanical buckling responses of simply supported FG sandwich plate seated on Winkler-Pasternak elastic foundation are investigated using a novel shear deformation theory. The current model take into consideration the shear deformation effects and ensures the zero shear stresses on the free surfaces of the FG-sandwich plate without requiring the correction factors "Ks". The material properties of the faces sheets of the FG-sandwich plate are assumed varies as power law function "P-FGM" and the core is isotropic (purely ceramic). From the virtual work principle, the stability equations are deduced and resolved via Navier model. The hygrothermal effects are considered varies as a nonlinear, linear and uniform distribution across the thickness of the FG-sandwich plate. To check and confirm the accuracy of the current model, a several comparison has been made with other models found in the literature. The effects the temperature, moisture concentration, parameters of elastic foundation, side-to-thickness ratio, aspect ratio and the inhomogeneity parameter on the critical buckling of FG sandwich plates are also investigated.

The aim of this work is to study the hygro-thermo-mechanical bending responses of simply supported FG plate resting on a Winkler-Pasternak elastic foundation. The effect transverse shear strains is taken into account in which the zero transverse shear stress condition on the top and bottom surfaces of the plate is ensured without using any shear correction factors. The developed model contains only four unknowns variable which is reduced compared to other HSDTs models. The material properties of FG-plate are supposed to vary across the thickness of the plate according to power-law mixture. The differential governing equations are derived based on the virtual working principle. Numerical outcomes of bending analysis of FG plates under hygro-thermo-mechanical loads are performed and compared with those available in the literature. The effects of the temperature, moisture concentration, elastic foundation parameters, shear deformation, geometrical parameters, and power-law-index on the dimensionless deflections, axial and transverse shear stresses of the FG-plate are presented and discussed.

In this work, a novel reliability approach for combined high and low cycle fatigue (CCF) estimation is developed by combining active learning strategy with least squares support vector machines (LS-SVM) (named as ALS-SVM) surrogate model to address the multi-resources uncertainties, including working loads, material properties and model itself. Initially, a new active learner function combining LS-SVM approach with Monte Carlo simulation (MCS) is presented to improve computational efficiency with fewer calls to the performance function. To consider the uncertainty of surrogate model at candidate sample points, the learning function employs k-fold cross validation method and introduces the predicted variance to sequentially select sampling. Following that, low cycle fatigue (LCF) loads and high cycle fatigue (HCF) loads are firstly estimated based on the training samples extracted from finite element (FE) simulations, and their simulated responses together with the sample points of model parameters in Coffin-Manson formula are selected as the MC samples to establish ALS-SVM model. In this analysis, the MC samples are substituted to predict the CCF reliability of turbine blades by using the built ALS-SVM model. Through the comparison of the two approaches, it is indicated that the reliability model by linear cumulative damage rule provides a non-conservative result compared with that by the proposed one. In addition, the results demonstrate that ALS-SVM is an effective analysis method holding high computational efficiency with small training samples to gain accurate fatigue reliability.

With the advance of robot capabilities and functionalities, construction robots assisting construction workers have been increasingly deployed on construction sites to improve safety, efficiency and productivity. For close-proximity human-robot collaboration in construction sites, robots need to be aware of the context, especially construction worker's behavior, in real-time to avoid collision with workers. To recognize human behavior, most previous studies obtained 3D human poses using a single camera or an RGB-depth (RGB-D) camera. However, single-camera detection has limitations such as occlusions, detection failure, and sensor malfunction, and an RGB-D camera may suffer from interference from lighting conditions and surface material. To address these issues, this study proposes a novel method of 3D human pose estimation by extracting 2D location of each joint from multiple images captured at the same time from different viewpoints, fusing each joint's 2D locations, and estimating the 3D joint location. For higher accuracy, the probabilistic representation is used to extract the 2D location of the joints, considering each joint location extracted from images as a noisy partial observation. Then, this study estimates the 3D human pose by fusing the probabilistic 2D joint locations to maximize the likelihood. The proposed method was evaluated in both simulation and laboratory settings, and the results demonstrated the accuracy of estimation and the feasibility in practice. This study contributes to ensuring human safety in close-proximity human-robot collaboration by providing a novel method of 3D human pose estimation.

Grouting method is an effective way of reinforcing cracked rock masses and plugging water gushing. Current grouting diffusion models are generally developed for horizontal cracks, which is contradictory to the fact that the crack generally occurs in rock masses with irregular spatial distribution characteristics in real underground environments. To solve this problem, this study selected a cement-sodium silicate slurry (C-S slurry) generally used in engineering as a fast-curing grouting material and regarded the C-S slurry as a Bingham fluid with time-varying viscosity for analysis. Based on the theory of fluid mechanics, and by simultaneously considering the deadweight of slurry and characteristics of non-uniform spatial distribution of viscosity of fast-curing grouts, a theoretical model of slurry diffusion in an oblique crack in rock masses at constant grouting rate was established. Moreover, the viscosity and pressure distribution equations in the slurry diffusion zone were deduced, thus quantifying the relationship between grouting pressure, grouting time, and slurry diffusion distance. On this basis, by using a 3-d finite element program in multi-field coupled software Comsol, the numerical simulation results were compared with theoretical calculation values, further verifying the effectiveness of the theoretical model. In addition, through the analysis of two engineering case studies, the theoretical calculations and measured slurry diffusion radius were compared, to evaluate the application effects of the model in engineering practice. Finally, by using the established theoretical model, the influence of cracking in rock masses on the diffusion characteristics of slurry was analysed. The results demonstrate that the inclination angle of the crack in rock masses and azimuth angle of slurry diffusion affect slurry diffusion characteristics. More attention should be paid to the actual grouting process. The results can provide references for determining grouting parameters of fast-curing grouts in engineering practice.

광대역 전력선 통신은 전류의 흐름과 함께 효과적인 양방향 통신을 얻기 위하여 전력선 분배망을 통신 매체로 이용한다. 그러나 전력선은 통신에 최적화된 채널이 아니므로 인터넷, 음성 및 데이터 서비스에 대한 통신 시스템의 개발은 시뮬레이션에 의한 성능 분석에 적합한 측정 기반의 전송 모델을 필요로 한다. 본 논문에서는 복잡한 전달 함수를 기술하는 분석 모델을 다중 전력선 모델의 감쇠 및 경로 파라미터를 획득하는데 이용하였으며 이를 바탕으로 주파수 응답특성을 계산하였다. 계산된 결과는 다중경로에 의한 주파수 선택성 페이딩과 주파수에 대한 신호의 감쇄를 보여주었으며 이는 실험 결과와 잘 일치하였다. 이론모델에 적용한 배전선을 실험적으로 구성한 후 배전선에 전기적인 신호를 인가하는 방법으로 비접촉식 결합을 위한 페라이트 코어로 구성된 유도 결합 장치를 사용하였다. 신호 결합 손실은 커플러에 감긴 권선수에 의해 최소화 될 수 있다. 3회 권선 결합 효율은 일회 권선 결과보다 6dB 이상 개선됨을 보였다.

The purpose of this study is directly measure and evaluate about absorbed dose change according to nominal energy and electron cone or medical accelerator on isodose curve, percentage depth dose, contaminated X-ray, inhomogeneous tissue, oblique surface and irradiation on intracavitary that electron beam with high energy distributed in tissue, and it settled standard data of hish energy electron beam treatment, and offer to exactly data for new dote distribution modeling study based on experimental resuls and theory. Electron beam with hish energy of $6{\sim}20$ MeV is used that generated from medical linear accelerator (Clinac 2100C/D, Varian) for the experiment, andwater phantom and Farmer chamber md Markus chamber und for absorbe d dose measurement of electron beam, and standard absorbed dose is calculated by standard measurements of International Atomic Energy Agency(IAEA) TRS 277. Dose analyzer (700i dose distribution analyzer, Wellhofer), film (X-OmatV, Kodak), external cone, intracavitary cone, cork, animal compact bone and air were used for don distribution measurement. As the results of absorbed dose ratio increased while irradiation field was increased, it appeared maximum at some irradiation field size and decreased though irradiation field size was more increased, and it decreased greatly while energy of electron beam was increased, and scattered dose on wall of electron cone was the cause. In percentage depth dose curve of electron beam, Effective depth dose(R80) for nominal energy of 6, 9, 12, 16 and 20 MeV are 1.85, 2.93, 4.07, 5.37 and 6.53 cm respectively, which seems to be one third of electron beam energy (MeV). Contaminated X-ray was generated from interaction between electron beam with high energy and material, and it was about $0.3{\sim}2.3\%$ of maximum dose and increased with increasing energy. Change of depth dose ratio of electron beam was compared with theory by Monte Carlo simulation, and calculation and measured value by Pencil beam model reciprocally, and percentage depth dose and measured value by Pencil beam were agreed almost, however, there were a little lack on build up area and error increased in pendulum and multi treatment since there was no contaminated X-ray part. Percentage depth dose calculated by Monte Carlo simulation appeared to be less from all part except maximum dose area from the curve. The change of percentage depth dose by inhomogeneous tissue, maximum range after penetration the 1 cm bone was moved 1 cm toward to surface then polystyrene phantom. In case of 1 cm and 2 cm cork, it was moved 0.5 cm and 1 cm toward to depth, respectively. In case of air, practical range was extended toward depth without energy loss. Irradiation on intracavitary is using straight and beveled type cones of 2.5, 3.0, 3.5 $cm{\phi}$, and maximum and effective $80\%$ dose depth increases while electron beam energy and size of electron cone increase. In case of contaminated X-ray, as the energy increase, straight type cones were more highly appeared then beveled type. The output factor of intracavitary small field electron cone was $15{\sim}86\%$ of standard external electron cone($15{\times}15cm^2$) and straight type was slightly higher then beveled type.

모든 설계는 정보가 불완전하고 또 불확실성 하에서 이루어지고 있어 재난을 초래할 수도 있다. 구조물 설계시에도 현행 결정론적인 설계방법은 구조물의 안전정도나 신뢰도를 나타내지 못하고 있다. 설계시 모든 사항들은 신뢰도 해석에 근거해 결정하는 것이 바람직하다. 토질에 있어서는 다른 구조재의 성질보다 불확실성이 더 크기 때문에 더 큰 문제를 내포하고 있어 신뢰도 해석에 의거한 설계방법의 연구가 절실한 형편이다. 주동토압에 관계되는 구조물의 신뢰도 해석이나 설계의 과정을 단순화할 수 있도록 확률변수의 수를 줄여 토질의 기본정수로부터 계산되는 토압을 하나의 확률변수로 간주하고 토압의 변동계수 및 분포형태를 구할 필요가 있다. 모의실험을 사용하여 사질토의 Rankine 주동토압들을 계산, 통계처리하고 중선형회귀법을 통해 기본 토질정수와 토압의 변동계수의 관계를 구할 수 있는 회귀식들을 제시하였고 각 기본 토질정수들이 토압의 변동계수에 미치는 영향을 분석하였으며 Pearson system을 이용하여 토압의 분포를 분석한 결과, 기본 토질정수들이 정규분포일 때 토압은 베타분포로 간주해도 무난할 것으로 나타났다.

최근 빠르고 편리하게 데이터 송수신이 가능한 무선LAN은 가정, 사무실 등 다양한 장소에서 사용이 증가하고 있다. 그러나 실내에서 무선LAN을 사용할 경우 천장, 벽, 바닥, 책상 등에서의 반사파에 의한 다중반사가 발생하여 데이터 전송의 오류 및 성능 저하의 주된 원인이 된다. 이를 해결하기 위해 본 논문에서는 Graphite의 특성을 분석하고 최적의 조성비를 찾아내서 무선LAN 환경에 적합한 전파흡수체를 연구하였다. 먼저 Graphite와 지지재인 CPE(Chlorinated Polyethylene)를 이용하여 조성비별 전파흡수체 샘플을 제작하고, 각 샘플의 반사계수를 측정하였다. 측정된 데이터로부터 재료정수를 계산하고, 전파흡수체를 설계 및 제작하여 전파흡수능을 비교, 분석 하였다. 그 결과 조성비가 Graphite : CPE=50:50 wt%이고, 두께 1.7 mm 인 전파흡수체가 5.2 GHz에서 27 dB 이상의 전파흡수능을 가지는 우수한 전파흡수체를 개발하였다.
