The aim of the current work is to characterise a piecewisely-integrated composite bumper beam based on the IIHS bumper crash protocol. IIHS bumper crash FE analysis for an aluminium type bumper beam was carried out to get the information about the dominant loading types at several regions in the bumper beam during crash. In the meantime, robust stacking sequences against tension and compression have been searched for using FE analysis of a coupon type model. After determining most effective stacking sequences for tension and compression, three-point bending simulation was preliminarily carried out to investigate the combination performance of them. Finally, IIHS bumper crash FE analysis for the piecewisely-integrated composite bumper beam, which consisted of the combination of tension effective stacking sequence and compression efficacious stacking sequence, was conducted and the result was compared with other types of composite bumper beams. It was found that the newly suggested piecewisely-integrated composite bumper beam showed superior crashworthy behaviour to those of uni-modal stacking sequence composite bumper beams.

In this research, we investigated students' understanding of the definitions of sequence of continuous functions and its uniform convergence. We selected three female and three male students out of the senior class of a university and conducted questionnaire surveys 4 times. We examined students' concept images of sequence of continuous functions and its uniform convergence and also how they approach to the right concept definitions for those through several progressive questions. Furthermore, we presented some suggestions for effective teaching-learning for the sequences of continuous functions.

The present study deals with the repair of composite structures by bonding composite patches. The composite structure is a carbon/epoxy laminate with stacking sequence [45/-45/0/90]S. The damaged zone is simulated by a central crack and repaired by bonding symmetrical composite patches. The repair is carried out using composite patches laminated from the same elemental folds as those of the cracked specimen. Three-dimensional finite element method is used to determine the energy release rate along the front of repaired crack. The effects of the repair technique used single or double patch, the stacking sequence of the cracked composite patch and the adhesive properties were highlighted on the variations of the fracture energy in mode I and mixed mode I + II loading.

A new method is proposed for obtaining Volterra kernals of a nonlinear system by use of a nonlinear systems by use of pseudorandom M-sequences and correlation technique. M-sequence is applied to a nonlinear technique. M-sequence is applied to a nonlinear system and the crosscorrelation function between the input and the output displays not only the linear impulse response of the linear part of the system, but also crosssections of the Volterra kernals of nonlinear system. Simulations are carried out for up to 3rd order Volterra kernal, and the results show a good agreement with the theoretical considerations.

Saccharomyces cervisiae has a highly ordered ring of filaments that lies just inside the cytoplasmic membrane in the region of the mother-bud neck. Mutants defective in any one of the our cell division cycle genes (CDC3, CDC10, CDC11, CDC12) fail to form these filaments and exhibit a pleiotropic phenotype that includes failure to complete cytokinesis and abnormal bud growth. However, the role of the filament is not clear. In order to find out the role of filament, the similar gene in S pombe (called cdc103$\^$+) to the CDC3 was cloned and sequenced. Here I report the sequence analysis of the cdc103$\^$+/ ) to the CDC3 was cloned and sequenced. Here I report the sequence analysis of the cdc103$\^$+/. Comparison of the predicted amino acid sequences of cdc103$\^$+/ and CDC3 revealed that they share significant similarity (43% identity and 56% identity or similarity) to each other.

This paper presents a neutral point deviation compensating control algorithm applied to a 3-level NPC converter. The neutral point deviation is analyzed with a focus on the current flowing out of or into the neutral point of the dc link. Based on the zero sequence components of the reference voltages, this paper analyzes the neutral point deviation and balancing control for 3-level NPC converter. An analytical method is proposed to calculate the injected zero sequence voltage for NP balancing based on average neutral current. This paper also proposes a control scheme compensating for the neutral point deviation under generalized unbalanced grid operating conditions. The positive and negative sequence components of the pole voltages and ac input currents are employed to accurately explain the behavior of 3-level NPC converter. Simulation and experimental results for a test set up of 30kW are shown to verify the validity of the proposed algorithm.

The pKH2 isolated from the multidrug-resistant Staphylococcus aureus SA2 is a 40.98-kb plasmid and mediates resistance to ampicillin, clindamycin, erythromycin, kanamycin, and streptomycin. The 3.4-kb HindIII fragment conferring kanamycin resistance was cloned from the pKH2 into pBluescriptII $KS^+$ and partial sequence determination of that fragment was carried out. Sequence analysis revealed that the kanamycin resistance gene which encoded aminoglycoside 3'-phosphotransferase was linked to the streptothricin resistance gene. But a nonsense mutation was found in the streptothricin resistance gene and this mutation resulted in a truncated protein of streptothricin acetyltransferase. Homology comparison with nucleotide sequence databases revealed that the 3.4-kb HindIII fragment of pKH2 had been derived not from S. aureus but from Gram-negative Campylobacter coli.

We propose a new technique for sidelobe suppression in orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (OFDM) systems. Sidelobe suppression is an essential technique to design OFDM based overlay system. The proposed technique is based on the combination of the multiple choice sequence (MCS) with the conventional windowing of OFDM signal in time domain. The MCS is choosing the one sequence which has lowest power in sidelobes from the produced set of sequences. The main advantage of proposed technique is that it fully utilizes the available bandwidth to transmit data. Simulation results show that by combining MCS with conventional windowing technique, the sidelobes in OFDM system can be significantly reduced

An optimization procedure is proposed to determine the optimal stacking sequence on the buckling of laminated composite plates with midplane symmetry under various loading conditions. Classical lamination theory is used for the determination of the critical buckling load of simply supported angle-ply laminates. Analysis is performed by the Galerkin method and Rayleigh-Ritz method. The approximate solution of buckling is replaced by the algorithms that produce generalized eigenvalue problem. Direct search technique is employed to solve the optimization problem effectively. A series of computations is carried out for plates having different aspect ratios, different load ratios and different number of lay-ups.

Conventionally design for multi-stage cold forging depends on the designer's experience and decision-making. Due to such non-deterministic nature of the process sequence design, a flexible inference engine is needed for process design expert system. In this study, A* searching algorithm was introduced to arrive at the vetter process sequence design considering the number of forming stages and levels of effective strain, effective stress, and forming load during the porcess. In order to optimize the process sequence in producing the final part, cost function was defined and minimized using the proposed A* searching algorithm. For verification of the designed forming sequences, forming experiments and finite element analyses were carried out in the present investigation. The developed expert system using A* searching algorithm can produce a flexible design system based on changes in the number of forming stages and weights.
