A multi-span bridge has the peak value of resultant girder moment or membrane stress at the interior support. In this paper, the spline finite strip method (FSM) is modified to obtain the more appropriate solution at the interior support where the peak values of solution exist. The modification has been achieved by expressing the shape function with non-periodic B-splines which have multiple knots at the boundary. The modified B-splines have the useful feature for interpolating the curve with sudden change in curvature. Moreover, the modified spline FSM is very efficient in analyzing multi-span box girder bridges, since a bridge can be modeled by an assembly of strips extended along the entire bridge length. Numerical examples of the bridge analysis have been performed to verify the efficiency and accuracy of the new spline FSM.

The inferences of data obtained from periodic inspection and type I censoring for the three step stress accelerated life test are studied in this paper. The failure rate function that a log-quadratic relation of stress and the tampered failure rate model are considered under the exponential distribution. The optimal stress change times which minimize the asymptotic variance of maximum likelihood estimators of parameters is determined and the maximum likelihood estimators of the model parameters are estimated. A numerical example will be given to illustrate the proposed inferential procedures.

Controlling chaos is a new concept, which transform chaotic signal to fixed points, or low periodic orbits. In this paper we propose state feedback method in order to control chaotic signal in canonical Chua's circuit Canonical Chua's circuit is a simple electronic circuit consists of two linear resistors, a linear inductor, two linear capacitors, and only one nonlinear element so called Chua's diode. This nonlinear element supplies power to the circuit and drives the chaotic oscillations. Proposed control method is successful to control chaotic signal in canonical Chua's circuit Result shows that chaotic trajectory change rapidly its orbit to stable fixed points, 1 periodic orbit, or 2 periodic orbit when control signal applies.

A simplified model for the so-called ACRT(accelerated crucible rotation technique) Bridgman crystal growth was considered in order to investigate the principal effects of the periodic variation of angular velocity. Numerical solutions were obtained for Ro=0.5, Ra=4.236*10$_{6}$ and E=2.176*10$^{-3}$ . The effects of spin-up process combined with natural convection was investigated as a preliminary study. The spin-up time scale for the present problem was a little larger than that observed for homogeneous spin-up problems. Numerical results reveal that over a time scale of (H$^{2}$/.nu..omega.$_{f}$)$^{1}$2/ the forced convection due to the formation of Ekman layer predominates. When the state of rigid body rotation is attained, natural convection due to buoyancy emerges as the main driving force and them the steady-state is approached asymptotically. Based on our preliminary results with simple spin-up, several fundamental features associated with variation of rotation speed are successfully identified. When a periodic variation of angular velocity was imposed, the system response was also periodic. Due to effect of mixing, the heat transfer was enlarged. From the analysis of time-averaged Nusselt number along the bottom surface the effect of a periodic variation of angular velocity on the interface location could be indirectly identified.d.

In the theory of source-driven abyssal circulation, the forcing is usually assumed to be steady source (deep-water formation). In many cases, however, the deep-water formation occurs instantaneously and it is not clear whether the theory can be applied well in this case. An attempt is made to resolve this problem by using a simple reduced gravity model. The model basin has large depth change compared for its size, like the East Sea, such that isobaths nearly coincide with geostrophic contours. Deep-water is formed every year impulsively and flows into the model basin through the boundary. It is found that the circulation driven by the impulsive source is generally the same as that driven by a steady source except that the former has a seasonal fluctuation associated with unsteadiness of forcing. The magnitudes of both the annual average and seasonal fluctuations increase with the rate of deep-water formation. The problem can be approximated to that of linear diffusion of momentum with boundary flux, which well demonstrates the essential feature of abyssal circulation spun-up by periodic impulsive source. Although the model greatly idealizes the real situation, it suggests that abyssal circulation can be driven by a periodic impulsive source in the East Sea.

We study the progressive full-scale wind tunnel tests on a high solidity vertical axis wind turbine (VAWT) for various tip speeds and pitch angles to understand the VAWT shaft system's dynamics using 0-1 Test for chaos. We identify that while varying rotor speed (tip speed) of the turbine, the system's dynamics change from periodic to chaotic through quasiperiodic and strange non-chaotic (SNA) states. The present study is the first experimental evidence for the existence of these states in the VAWT shaft system to the best of our knowledge. Using the asymptotic growth value Kc in 0-1 test, when the turbine operates at the low tip speeds and high pitch angles for low incoming wind speeds, the system behaves periodic (Kc ≈ 0). However, when the incoming wind speed increases further the system's dynamics shift from periodic to chaotic vibrations through quasi-periodic and SNA. This phenomenon is due to the dynamic stalling of blades which induces chaotic vibration in the VAWT shaft system. Further, the singular continuous spectrum method validates the presence of SNA and differentiates the SNA from chaotic vibrations.

The purpose of this study was to determine the effect of periodic walking during hindlimb suspension on the mass, relative weight, fiber type distribution and cross-sectional area of Type I and II fibers in the developing Type II plantaris muscle. To examine the effectiveness of periodic walking on mass and fiber size, the hindlimbs of young female Wistar rats were suspended (HS group) and half of these rats walked on a treadmill for 45 min／day(15 min every 4 hours) at 5 meters／min at a 15 degree grade(HS-W group) After seven days of hindlimb suspension, the plantaris muscle wet weight was 28.40％ significantly smaller（P＜0.005） and relative plantaris muscle weight was 26.97％ smaller compared with those of control rats（P＜0.05）. The plantaris muscle wet weight and the relative plantaris muscle weight increased by 46.60％ and 49.23％ respectively with periodic walking, moreover. the plantaris muscle wet weight and the relative plantaris muscle weight of the HS-W rats recovered to the level of the control rats. No change was observed in fiber type percentage of the developing plantaris muscle following one week of hindlimb suspension or periodic walking during hindlimb suspension. Type I and II fiber cross-sectional areas of the developing plantaris muscle were 42.51％ and 43. 68％ lower in the HS group than in the control group（p＜0.0001）, Type I and II fiber cross-sectional areas of the developing plantaris were 30.82％ and 45.97％ greater in the HS-W group than in the HS group（p＜0.0001）, whereas Type I and II fiber cross-sectional area of HS-W group were less than those of the control group（P＜0.0001） The results suggest that periodic walking can attenuate developing plantaris muscle atrophy induced by hindlimb suspension.

본 연구에서는 단일 원관에서 입구의 유속이 일정한 경우와 주기적인 변동이 있는 경우에 대하여 시간에 따라 원관 주위에서 와류 분포와 온도 분포 변화를 비교 분석하였다. 또한, 양력과 항력의 시간 변화와 PSD(power spectral density)를 분석하여 유동의 주파수 특성을 규명하였다. 일정 입구 유속의 경우는 잘 알려진 칼만 와류 분포를 보여 주었으며 원관의 상하에서 교대로 와류가 발생하는 것을 관찰할 수 있었다. 주기적인 입구 유속 변동의 경우는 원관의 상하에서 동시에 와류가 발생하는 것을 관찰할 수 있었다. 두 가지 모두 시간에 따른 온도 분포 변화는 와류 분포 변화와 거의 유사하게 거동하는 것을 확인할 수 있었다. 일정 입구 유속의 경우의 와류 유동 주파수는 31.15 Hz 이며 주기적인 입구 유속의 경우는 와류 유동 주파수는 입구 유속의 주파수와 동일하게 15.57 Hz으로 나타났다. 원관 표면 평균 누셀수는 일정 입구 유속의 경우는 99.6이며 주기적인 입구 유속 변동의 경우는 110.7로 나타나서 주기적인 입구 속도 변동의 경우가 열전달이 11.1% 증가하는 것을 알 수 있었다.

기후 변화로 인하여 해수면은 상승 추세에 있으며, 이로 인해 해안가 주변 저지대는 물에 잠길 위험에 처해있다. 따라서 본 연구에서는 위성 고도계 자료(Topex/Poseidon, Jason-1/2/3) 및 Southern Oscillation Index(SOI) /Pacific Decadal Oscillation (PDO) 자료를 이용하여 해수면 높이 변화와 기후 지수간의 관계를 알아보고자 하였다. 시간 기반의 함수를 주파수 기반 함수 형태로 변환시킨다면 각 자료가 가지고 있는 고유 주기를 분석할 수 있다. 푸리에 변환과 웨이블릿 변환은 대표적인 주기 분석 방법이다. 푸리에 변환은 주기에 대한 정보만 획득 가능하지만, 웨이블릿 변환은 주기 및 시간 정보 둘 다 획득할 수 있다. 웨이블릿 변환은 각 자료에 대한 주기를 찾을 수 있으며, 교차 웨이블릿 변환과 웨이블릿 긴밀도는 두 자료에 대한 공통 주기나 상관 관계 및 위상을 찾을 수 있다. 교차 웨이블릿 변환 결과 해수면 높이 및 두 기후 지수(SOI, PDO)의 1년 주기에서 강한 출력이 확인되었으며, 해수면 높이와 PDO는 역위상 관계를 보였다. 웨이블릿 긴밀도 분석에서는 교차 웨이블릿 변환에서 나타나지 않았던 1년 미만의 단주기 및 장주기에서의 상관관계가 높은 구간을 찾을 수 있었다. 웨이블릿 분석은 각 자료의 주기를 찾을 수 있을 뿐만 아니라 두 시계열 자료가 가지고 있는 주기 및 위상관계를 찾을 수 있었다. 따라서 본 연구 결과는 웨이블릿 분석을 통해 기후 자료가 가지는 고유의 주기를 분석하는 데 사용될 수 있을 것이며 시계열 자료 분석에서 찾기 어려운 해양의 다양한 현상을 모니터링하는데 활용할 수 있을 것으로 판단된다.

This paper describes a fully digitalized driver for BLDC motors and the driver is realized by a single chip microprocessor. The speed change can be done by using the signal obtained from the position detecting sensor and adjusting the pulse width at the input channel of power module. In order to verify the effectiveness, an repetitive control method is adopted in the speed control tracking a periodic reference change in the BLDC motor system. The experimental results are shown for the reference tracking accurately according to the design parameter variation in the repetitive controller design.
