Multiple Lapse Time Window (MLTW) analysis for obtaining intrinsic attenuation value require numerous data without directional bias to compensate focal mechanism. The first window of MLTW, therefore, shows large deviation in fitting smoothed theoretical curve. The information on the focal mechanism may reduce burdens of number and distribution. This study combined algorithm of computing focal mechanism to DSMC method by Yoshimoto (2000). However, the MLTW method based on the numerous data was not applicable to this study, because of the limited data to the almost same fault plane solution. This study showed that the available data was too insufficient to construct smoothed theoretical curve, although the deviation of the first window was improved. Instead of conventional solution by more data, the study seems to be needed for new constraints to obtain smoothed curve.

The objective of this study is to investigate the role of large-scale coherent structures in a spatially developing plane mixing layers. To achieve this, we have to look into the mutual interactions between three-dimensional large-scale coherent structures and the mean flow. Our attention will be focused on the energy exchange mechanism between the various modes, and the effects of the nonlinear evolution of the phases of the interacting modes. Linear stability of the three-dimensional viscous shear layer is formulated and solved as the basis for the solution of the nonlinear formulation based on the energy method. The importance of the initial conditions that may affect the evolution of the flow has been examined. It has been numerically calculated the nonlinear effects arising from the interactions among the three-dimensional large-scale coherent structures in a spatially developing plane mixing layers. The results of this study provide useful parametric information for the control of shear layer in practical applications in the mixing and transport augmentation.

The flow through a centrifugal compressor rotor was calculated using the quasi-3-dimensional and fully 3-dimensional Navier-Stokes solution methods. The calculated results, obtained during the development of the computer codes for both methods are discussed. In the inviscid quasi 3-dimensional analysis, stream function formulation was used for the blade to blade (B-B) plane calculations, and the streamline curvature method was used for the meridional (H-S) plane calculations. In the viscous 3-dimensional flow analysis, a control volume method based on a general rotating curvilinear coordinate system was used to solve the time-averaged Navier-Stokes equations, and a standard k-.epsilon. model was used to obtain eddy viscosity. The quasi-3-dimensional analysis reasonably predicts the pressure distributions and requires much less computation time in the region where viscous effects are not strong; however, it fails to predict velocity field and loss mechanism through the impeller passage. The viscous 3-dimensional flow analysis shows reasonable pressure distributions and typical jet-wake flow field through the impeller passage. Secondary flow and total pressure distributions on cross-sectional planes explain the loss mechanisms through the impeller.

This paper aims to investigate vibration frequency decrease (vibration period elongation) of reinforced concrete (RC) structure with unreinforced infill wall and reinforced infill wall exposed to progressively increased artificial earthquake load on shaking table. For this purpose, two shaking table experiments were selected as a case study. Shaking table experiments were carried on 1:1 scaled prototype one bay one storey RC structure with infill walls. The purpose of this shaking table experiment sequence is to assess local behavior and progressive collapse mechanism. Frequency decrease and eigen-vector evolution are directly related to in-plane and out-of-plane bearing capacities of infill wall enclosure with reinforced concrete frame. Firstly, frequency decrease-damage relationship was evaluated on the base of experiment results. Then, frequency decrease and stiffness degradation were evaluated with applied Peak Ground Acceleration (PGA) by considering strength deterioration. Lastly, eigenvector evolution-local damage and eigenvector evolution-frequency decrease relationship was investigated. Five modes were considered while evaluating damage and frequency decrease of the tested specimens. The relationship between frequency decrease, stiffness degradation and damage level were presented while comparing with Unreinforced Brick Infill (URB) and Reinforced Infill wall with Bed Joint Reinforcement (BJR) on the base of natural vibration frequency.

This paper describes realtime walking based on sensory information. In this study, a biped robot having a trunk is considered. The motion of the trunk balances the whole body of the biped robot while the legs locomotes on the ground. How to calculate the motion of the trunk is proposed using the ZMP concept. Also, an online walking pattern is discussed which is generated in realtime on the basis of walking parameters selected by visual and auditory sensors. In order to realize biped walking, we have constructed a forty-three degrees of freedom biped robot, WABIAN-RV (WAseda BIped humANoid robot-Revised V). Its height is 1.89[m] and its total weight is 131.4[kg]. Various walking experiments using WABIAN-RV are conducted on the plane, and the validity of its mechanism and control is verified.

This paper presents a novel 3D model representation, called hybrid model representation, to overcome existing 3D volume-based indoor scene reconstruction mechanism. In indoor 3D scene reconstruction, volume-based model representation can reconstruct detailed 3D model for the narrow scene. However it cannot reconstruct large-scale indoor scene due to its memory consumption. This paper presents a memory efficient plane-hash model representation to enlarge the scalability of the indoor scene reconstruction. Also, the proposed method uses plane-hash model representation to reconstruct large, structural planar objects, and at the same time it uses volume-based model representation to recover small detailed region. Proposed method can be implemented in GPU to accelerate the computation and reconstruct the indoor scene in real-time.

The studies on the bearing capacity of shallow and deep foundations have been made in various fields and formulas for various failure mechanisms have been presented. But, for these models, the method of classification with foundation depth has been obscure and bearing capacity factors have not been uniformly applied. An experiment was performed, in plane strain conditions, with ground model made of carbon rods. The failure mechanism of foundation and ultimate bearing capacity with foundation depth were observed. Based on experimental results the classification between shallow and deep foundations by failure shape was tried. Various present failure mechanisms of foundation were verified through the experiment.

Recent studies of the structure of wall turbulence have lead to the development of a conceptual model that validates and integrates many elements of previous models into a relatively simple picture based on self-assembling packets of hairpin vortex eddies. By continual spawning new hairpins the packets grow longer in the streamwise direction, and by mutual induction between adjacent hairpins the hairpins are strained so that they grow taller and wider as they age. The result is a characteristic growth angle in the streamwise-wall normal plane. The spanwise growth of individual packets implies that packets must either merge or pass through each other when they come into contact. Direct numerical simulations of the growth and interaction of spanwise adjacent hairpins shows that they merge by the vortex connection mechanism originally proposed by Wark and Nagib (199). In this mechanism the quasi-streamwise legs of two hairpins annihilate each other, by virtue of having opposite vorticity, leaving a new hairpin of approximately double the width of the individuals. PIV measurements in planes parallel to the wall support this picture. DNS of multiple hairpins shows how the spanwise scale doubles when the hairpins form an array.

This paper is an experimental study of investigating the reinforcing effect and the behavior of cohesionless slope installed with reticulated root pils. Reduced scale model tests with plane strain conditions were performed to study the behavior of the strip footing located on the surface of cohesionless slopes reinforced with root piles. Model tests were carried out with Jumunjin Standard Sand of 45% relative density prepared by raining method to have an uniform slope foundation during tests. Slope of model foundation was 1 : 1.5 and a rigid model slop. Parametric model tests were performed with changing location of model footing, arrangements of root piles and angles of pile installation. On the other hands, the technique with camera shooting was used to monitor sliding surface formed with discontinuty of dyed sand prepared during formation o foudation. From test results, parameters affecting the behavior of model footing were analyzed qualitatively to evaluate their effects on the characteristic of load - settlement, ultimate bearing capacity of model footing and failure mechanism based on the formation of failure surface.

The advantages of "VPN over Internet" are cost-effectiveness and flexibility However, the disadvantages are the lack of sufficient QoS mechanism and transmission capacity for high bandwidth service. Given this increasing demand for high bandwidth Internet and QoS assurances in "PN over Internet", IP/GMPLS based control plane combined with a high bandwidth capacity of DWDM optical network is seen as a very favorable approach for the realization of future "OVPN over IP/GMPLS over DWDM" Within OVPN for providing QoS guaranteed multimedia service over the NGOI(Next Generation Optical Internet) based on the "IP/GMPLS over DWDM" concept, differentiated QoS framework is one of the key issues to implement OVPN over DWDM-based NGOI. Keeping in mind that IETF(Internet Engineering Task Force) and ITU-T(International Telecommunication Union) are standardizing IP/GMPLS over DWDM protocol framework as a solution for the NGOI, in this paper, we suggest Optical-LSP establishment and QoS maintenance scheme based on DOQS(Differentiated Optical QoS Service) classes, which are the key issue of DOQS protocol framework for assuring end-to-end QoS in "OVPN over IP/GMPLS over DWDM".
