  • In spatial structures with large spaces, one important issue in structures with large spaces is how to carry the weight of the roof. A tensegrity cable dome structure is a kind of soft structural system using the tension cable and compression column as a main element. The tensegrity cable dome is built into a variety of shape around the world but then a collapse accident is increasing. Owing to a collapse accident we must grip of the collapse mechanism to prevent an accident and construct the structure with safety and economy. In this study, I investigated the unstable characteristics of the Geiger-type and Flower-type tcnsegrity cable dome structures, which is the lightweight hybrid structures using compression and tension elements continuously, according to the difference of loading conditions.

  • Rubber isolator has properties that can adjust easily stiffness and can be formed various shape. Also, it has high damping and is effective about structure-borne noise at high frequency range, So, rubber mount has widely used to isolate vibration at industrial equipment and construction field. However, rubber material is nonlinear and require enough consideration about shape factor whenever it is designed. The purpose of this paper is to develop conical rubber mount using compression and shear elasticity. The first, the dimension of mount is calculated by theoretical analysis considering design condition and static characteristics have been analyzed by FEM method. In addition, the fatigue test of rubber mount is performed to get reliability for product life and dynamic stiffness test is executed to get dynamic magnification factor. Finally, transmissibility test of vibration isolator has been carried out to suggest normal quantity data about vibration isolation.

  • A study for the structural strength analysis on the doubler plate subjected to the axial, biaxial in-plane compression and shear load has been performed through the systematic evaluation process. In order to estimate the proper static strength of doubler plate, non-linear elasto-plastic analysis is introduced. Gap element modeling for contact effect between main plate and doubler is prepared and nonlinear analysis procedures are illustrated based on MSC/N4W . In addition, some design guides are suggested through the consideration of several important effects such as corrosion of main plate, doubler width, doubler length and doubler thickness. Finally theses results are compared with developed design formula based on the buckling strength and general trends and design guides according to the variation of design parameters are discussed.

  • The non-linear properties of rubber material which are described as strain energy function are important parameter to design and evaluate of rubber spring. These are determined by material tests which are uni-axial tension and bi-axial tension. The computer simulation using the nonlinear element analysis program executed to predict and evaluate the load capacity and stiffness for chevron spring. In order to investigate the heat-aging effects on the rubber material properties, the acceleration test were carried out. Compression set results changes as the threshold are used for assessment of the useful life and time to threshold value were plotted against reciprocal of absolute temperature to give the Arrhenius plot. By using the compression set test, several useful life prediction for rubber material were proposed.

  • The various types of structural materials that are available in the construction industry nowadays make it necessary to predict their stress-strain behavior. Geopolymer are alternatives for ordinary Portland cement concrete that are made from pozzolans activation. Due to relatively new material, many mechanical specifications of geopolymer are still not yet discovered. In this study, stress-strain behavior has been provided from experiments for unconfined geopolymers. Modulus of Elasticity and stress-strain behavior are critical requirements at analysis process and knowing complete stress-strain curve facilitates structural behavior assessment at nonlinear analysis for structures that have built with geopolymers. This study intends to investigate stress-strain behavior and modulus of elasticity from experimental data that belongs for geopolymers varying in fineness and mix design and curing method. For the sake of behavior determination, 54 types of geopolymer are used. Similar mix proportions are used for samples productions that have different fineness and curing approach. The results indicated that the compressive strength ranges between 7.7 MPa and 43.9 MPa at the age of 28 days curing.

  • This study aims at developing a torsional strength model based on a nonlinear analysis method presented in the previous studies. To this end, flexural neutral axis depth of a reinforced concrete section and effective thickness of an idealized thin-walled tube were formulated based on reasonable approximations. In addition, various sectional force components, such as shear, flexure, axial compression, and torsional moment, were considered in estimating torsional strength by addressing a simple and linear strain profile. Existing test results were collected from literature for verifications by comparing with those estimated from the proposed model. On this basis, it can be confirmed that the proposed model can evaluate the torsional strength of RC members subjected to combined loads with a good level of accuracy, and it also well captured inter-related mechanisms between shear, bending moment, axial compression, and torsion.

  • This paper tested 11 concrete-encased concrete-filled steel tube (CFST) composite columns and one reinforced concrete column under combined axial compression and lateral loads. The primary parameters, including the loading system, axial compression ratio, volume stirrup ratio, diameter-to-thickness ratio of the steel tube, and stirrup form, were varied. The influence of the parameters on the failure mode, strength, ductility, energy dissipation, strength degradation, and damage evolution of the composite columns were revealed. Moreover, a two-parameter nonlinear seismic damage model for composite columns was established, which can reflect the degree and development process of the seismic damage. In addition, the relationships among the inter-story drift ratio, damage index and seismic performance level of composite columns were established to provide a theoretical basis for seismic performance design and damage assessments.

  • 최근 MPEG 에서는 인공신경망 모델을 다양한 딥러닝 프레임워크에서 상호운용 가능한 포맷으로 압축 표현할 수 있는 NNR(Compression of Neural Network for Multimedia Content Description and Analysis) 표준화를 진행하고 있다. 본 논문에서는 MPEG-NNR 에서 CNN 모델을 압축하기 위한 지역 비선형 양자화(Local Non-linear Quantization: LNQ) 기법을 제시한다. 제안하는 LNQ 는 균일 양자화된 CNN 모델의 각 계층의 가중치 행렬 블록 단위로 추가적인 비선형 양자화를 적용한다. 또한, 제안된 LNQ 는 가지치기(pruning)된 모델의 경우 블록내의 영(zero) 값의 가중치들은 그대로 전송하고 영이 아닌 가중치만을 이진 군집화를 적용한다. 제안 기법은 음성 분류를 위한 CNN 모델(DCASE Task)의 압축 실험에서 기존 균일 양자화를 대비 동일한 분류 성능에서 약 1.78 배 압축 성능 향상이 있음을 확인하였다.

  • The purpose of this paper is to study comparative of dynamic instability characteristic of Geiger-typed cable dome structures by load condition, which is well-known among the cable dome structures that are the lightweight hybrid structure using compression and tension element continuously. Dynamic buckling process in the phase plane is very important thing for understanding why unstable phenomena are sensitively originated in nonlinear dynamic by various initial conditions. But there is no paper for the dynamic instability of hybrid cable dome by Sinusoidal Excitations, many papers which deal with the dynamic instability for shell-structures under the step load have been published. As a result of Geiger-typed cable dome, which shows chaotic behavior in dynamic nonlinear analysis with initial imperfection.

  • A pneumatic cylinder has been used in the production facilities of various industries. However, it is difficult to achieve deciding the precise position of the piston rod, due to the nonlinear properties arising from the air compression and the friction. In recent years, the fuzzy control algorithm has been frequently applied to various kinds of systems on account of its simple algorithm, good adaptability to complex or nonlinear systems and so on. On the other hand, the PID or I-PD control has been used in many engineering fields because of the excellent performance. However, it is known that each one of them has disadvantages. In this paper, we propose a hybrid control which is strived to obtain the advantages of each other. It is shown that the proposed hybrid control performs better than the conventional I-PD control through the experimental results.
