Isogeometric concept is introduced to find out the optimum layout of plane structure under free vibration. Eigenvalue problem is formulated and numerically solved in order to obtain natural frequencies and mode shapes of plane structures. For the exact geometric expression of the structure, the Non-Uniform Rational B-spline Surface (NURBS) basis functions is employed and it is also used to define the material density functions. A node-wise design variables is adopted to deal with the updating of material density in topology optimization (TO). The definition of modal strain energy is employed to achieve the maximization of fundamental frequency through its minimization. The verification of the proposed TO technique is performed by a series of benchmark test for plane structures.

In this study, we have developed a program which can calculate phase and group velocities, attenuation and wave structures of each mode in multi-layered plates. The wave structures of each mode are obtained, varying material properties and number of layers. The key in the success of guided wave NDE is how to optimize the mode selection scheme by minimizing energy loss when a structure is in contact with liquid. In this study, the normalized out-of-plane displacements at the surface of a free plate are used to predict the variation of modal attenuation and verily the correlation between attenuation and wave structure. It turns out that the guided wave attenuation can be efficiently obtain from the out-of-plane displacement variation of a free wave guide alleviating such mathematical difficulties in extracting complex roots for the eigenvalue problem of a liquid loaded wave guide. Through this study, the concert to optimize guided wave mode selection is accomplished to enhance sensitivity and efficiency in nondestructive evaluation for multi-layered structures.

This article presented a comprehensive model to study static buckling stability and associated mode-shapes of higher shear deformation theories of sandwich laminated composite beam under the compression of varying axial load function. Four higher order shear deformation beam theories are considered in formulation and analysis. So, the model can consider the influence of both thick and thin beams without needing to shear correction factor. The compression force can be described through axial direction by uniform constant, linear and parabolic distribution functions. The Hamilton's principle is exploited to derive equilibrium governing equations of unified sandwich laminated beams. The governing equilibrium differential equations are transformed to algebraic system of equations by using numerical differential quadrature method (DQM). The system of equations is solved as an eigenvalue problem to get critical buckling loads and their corresponding mode-shapes. The stability of DQM in determining of buckling loads of sandwich structure is performed. The validation studies are achieved and the obtained results are matched with those. Parametric studies are presented to figure out effects of in-plane load type, sandwich thickness, fiber orientation and boundary conditions on buckling loads and mode-shapes. The present model is important in designing process of aircraft, naval structural components, and naval structural when non-uniform in-plane compressive loading is dominated.

This paper describes the experimental study on the structural behavior of the joint plane between a RC(Reinforced Concrete) wall and a SC(Steel Plate Concrete) wall under out-of plane flexural loads and in-plane shear loads. The test specimens were produced with L and I shape to assess efficiently flexural and shear behavior of the structures. In order to consider dynamic loads such as earthquake, cyclic loading tests were carried out. As results of the out-of plane flexural tests, ductile failure mode of vertical bars was shown under a push load and the failure load was more than nominal strength of the specimen. And the latter test was performed to verify the variation which was composition presence of horizontal bars in the SC member. The test results showed that capacity of the specimens was more than their nominal strength regardless of composition presence of horizontal bars.

The electronic speckle pattern interferometer (ESPI) has been applied to many technical problems such as deformation and displacement measurement, strain visualization and surface roughness monitoring. In this study, we used an ESPI system based on the dual beam speckle interferometer method in order to measure in-plane displacement and vibration mode using the ESIP technique. This research was carried out for the purpose of applying the vibration analysis method employing Electro-Optic holographic interference technique to the vibration analysis of uniform rectangular cantilevers plate(SS400,STS304) with cantilevers span to breadth ratio of 150 by 75. And thickness of 1mm and 0.8mm respectively. We improved the ESPI technique in order to obtain the distribution of displacement component resolved in one direction through a CCD camera combined with an image processing system. To certify and to assess the accuracy in measuring by this ESPI, the results obtained with the speckle method and vibration mode analysis are to be compared with those results by Warbuton's Theoretical expression and vibration made in FEM analysis.

In the case of the superstructure which is consist of two I girders and slab, the section can behave as II section, so that the neutral axis with respect to out of plane direction flexure can be regarded as major axis. Therefore in-plane flexural mode might govern the free vibration mode. Meanwhile, horizontally curved girders always experience not only bending moments but also torsional moments although the primary load is usually supposed to be gravitational load. The interaction due to bending and torsional moments make the behavior complicated and torsional mode may govern the free vibration mode. In other words, structure can have different dynamic characteristic due to its initial curvature. In this research, using 3-dimensional sell elements, free-vibration analyses are carried out due to initial curvature. The analysis models are assumed to be composite and non-composite and finally natural frequency and eigen mode are discussed.

The reaction of cis-protected (Me4en)Pd(II) species with potentially multidentate bis(benzylthio)methylenepropanedioate (L) was carried out to obtain a monometallic compound, [(Me₄en)Pd(L)], in O,O'-coordination mode. The bis(benzylthio)methylene group was bent strikingly from the palladium square plane at the dihedral angle of 70.40°. The physicochemical properties of the present palladium(II) compound were fully characterized by means of infrared and nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy, thermogravimetric analysis, and single-crystal X-ray diffraction measurement.

In this paper the efficient finite element for stress analysis of plane stress/strain problems is proposed. This element is achieved by adding the bubble-mode function to 8-node element. The stiffness matrix of the element is calculated by using modified numerical integration order to avoid spurious zero energy mode. In order to demonstrate the performance of this element numerical tests for various verification problems are carried out. The results of numerical tests show accuracy and reliability of the element presented in this paper.

Viewing angle characteristics of a nematic liquid crystal (NLC) using a in-plane driven (IPD) vertical alignment (VA) cell without a negative compensation film on a homeotropic alignment layer were studied. Good voltage-transmittance (V - T) curves were obtained using the rubbing aligned IPD- VA cell. However, instability and low transmittances of V - T characteristics in photo aligned IPD- VA cell was measured. The EO performance of a rubbingaligned IPD- VA cell without a negative compensation film was wider than that of photoaligned IPD- VA cell and conventional VA cell. Also, the fabrication processes using the rubbing aligned IPD- VA cell mode be carried out with only one-sided rubbing.

Electronic Speckle Pattern Interferometry(ESPI) was proposed in the 1970's as a method of producing the interferogram without using traditional holographic technique. ESPI is more faster than Holography method, because the interferometric image is recorded and updated by the video camera every 1/30 second and whold-field inspection possibly. In this study using a non-contact optical technique that is suited for in-plane and out-of-plane deformation measurement. Thin plate with crack was analyzed by ESPI to determine the characteristics of vibration mode shape and natural frequency. Also, results of the experiment were compared with Finite Element Method(FEM).
