The concrete stiffness matrices of membrane elements used in the finite element analysis of wall-type structures are reviewed and discussed. The behavior of cracked reinforced concrete membrane elements is first described by summarizing the constitutive laws of concrete and steel established for the two softened truss models (the rotating-angle softened-truss model and the fixed-angle softened-truss model). These constitutive laws are then related to the concrete stiffness matrices of the two existing cracking models (the rotating-crack model and the fixed-crack model). In view of the weakness in the existing models, a general model of the matrix is proposed. This general matrix includes two Poisson ratios which are not clearly understood at present. It is proposed that all five material properties in the general matrix should be established by new biaxial tests of panels using proportional loading and strain-control procedures.

The different sized slag powder, which have been used widely as a cement binder, was obtained by using 3 kind of mills. Two kinds of slag powder with different size was mixed and then investigated the relationship between the rheological properties and the particle packing ratio or particle distribution. It was found that the rheological properties of two mixed slag powder was proportional to the particle packing ratio of it. And the paste flowability of the mixed slag powder with wide particle distribution was very good.

The effect of electric shock on human body is enormousness, which leads to warmth, tingling, and even death. The mean values of perception currents obtained on 91 men and 39 women are about 0.77(mA) for men and 0.57(mA) for women. The mean value for women is approximately seven tenths that of men. An individual can tolerate, with no adverse effects, repeated exposure to the reactions associated with currents of his let-go level, and the mean value of let-go currents obtained from 27 normal men is 6.29(mA). Lethal currents flowing human body is very dangerous even for a short time. So, it is necessary to have recourse to animal experiments ot determine lethal current for human. An analysis of experimental data indicates that body weight and shock duration are important factors in determining the lethal current. It is suggested that the relationship between current and shock duration is given by I=K/.root.T, and lethal current is proportional to body weight, where I is the current in milliampere, and T is the time in seconds.

Capacity has always been a major concern in wireless networks. This letter studies the impact of mobility on the overall system capacity in wireless cellular networks. In this letter, we present a simple system model which we developed to capture the inherent relationships among system capacity, new call blocking probability, handoff dropping probability, call terminating probability, and bandwidth utilization rate. We investigate the complex relationship between mobility and capacity-related parameters. Through simulation, we demonstrate that mobility has a significant impact on capacity and is reversely proportional to the bandwidth reserved for handoff traffic.

This paper presents a hypothesis and its experimental validation that ∆E (E_sec,corr - E_corr) of cyclic polarization curve of an Al-Zn-Mg-Cu alloy decreases firstly and then increases with the increasing of corrosion rate or corroded fraction F_corr of alloy surface. The minimum value of ∆E is obtained when F_corr ≈ 50%. In addition, a proportional relationship between ∆E and |50% - F_corr| was found. This non-monotonic relation between ∆E and extent of localized corrosion indicates that additional attention should be paid on using ∆E to assess localized corrosion behaviour of Al-Zn-Mg-Cu alloys.

The purposes of this study were 1)to examine the present and the preferred design characteristics of major interior furnishings in the Gamsil apartment area of Gangdong-Ku and to investigate the relationship between those characteristics and residents' socioeconomic and their physical housing characteristics, 2) to determine the past and the future factor structures for attributes of the major furnishing, and , 3) to examine the change between the degree of the past and the future consideration on each of the attributes. The data for the study were collected using self-administered questionnaire. Households in Gamsil apartment area of Gangdong-Ku were the population. A proportional stratified systematic random sampling was employed. 480 questionnaires were distributed and 258 were collected. Among them, SAS package. The staticstics used were frequency, percentage, χ\sup 2\-test, factor analysis, and paired t-test.

The purpose of this study were ; (1) to analyze the relationship between actual housing condition and housing satisfaction with socio-demographic and housing characteristics of respondents and (2) to present the device on the quality of housing environment in low-income families. The sample was a proportional, stratified, random sample of 299 low-income families in Deajeon. The major findings were as follows: 1) The wholey, actual housing conditions were not good; especially the worst conditions appeared exterior walls, roof, kitchen, bath and toilet, heating, noise, recreation facilities as play-ground. 2) Actual housing condition has been found to be related to income, tenure(rent or own), persons/room. In the relation of the socio-demographic and housing characteristics, actual housing condition, housing satisfaction, income and persons/room were found to be a significant explanatory variable in actual housing condition. And actual housing condition ws appeared to be the strongest variable in housing satisfaction. 3) Housing of the low-income families should be improved physical aspects of the environment and be reflected in need of the occupant that based on the social-welfare housing concept.

In this paper, the effect of a moving mass on dynamic behavior of the cracked cantilever beam on elastic foundations is presented. Based on the Euler-Bernoulli beam theory, the equation of motion can be constructed by using the Lagrange's equation. The crack section is represented by a local flexibility matrix connecting two undamaged beam segments. That is, the crack is modelled as a rotational spring. This flexibility matrix defines the relationship between the displacements and forces across the crack section and is derived by applying fundamental fracture mechanics theory The crack is assumed to be in the first mode of fracture. As the depth of crack is increased, the tip displacement of the cantilever beam is Increased. When the depth of crack is constant, the frequency of a cracked beam is proportional to the spring stiffness.

The traditional BCS superconductors $AOs_2O_6$ (A=K, Rb, and Cs) were investigated to find the relationship between their structures and superconducting transition temperatures. The $T_c$ decreases with increasing the unit cell parameter of $AOs_2O_6$. This is in contrast to the case of conventional BCS superconductivity in a single bond model, where $T_c$ may increase with increasing the the unit cell parameter since the DOS at Fermi level increases as the unit cell parameter increases. Instead, the $T_c$ of a $\beta$-pyrochlore oxide is proportional to the lattice softness of the compound.

Effects of temperature coefficients fur dielectric constants on transient reflectances and thermal responses have been investigated for a metal(gold) thin-film during ultrashort pulse laser heating. Heating processes are simulated using the conventional conduction model(parabolic one-step, POS), the parabolic tow-step model(PTS), the hyperbolic two-step model(HTS). Results fro the HTS model are very similar to those from the PTS model, since the laser heating time in this study is considerably greater than the electron relaxation time. PTS and HTS models, however, result in completely different temperature profiles from those obtained by the POS model due to slow electron-lattice interactions compared to laser pulse duration. Transient reflectances are directly estimated from the linear relationship between electron temperature and complex dielectric constants, while conventional approaches assume that the change in reflectances is proportional to that in temperatuer. Reflectances at the front surface vary considerably for various dielectric constants, while those at the rear surface remain unchanged relatively.
