In this study, a FE model tuning method using experimental modal data was suggested after examining all the published conventional methods. The idea of this method is introducing scale factors to maintain both the structural connectivity and the consistency in the corrected stiffness matrix which makes it always possible to interpret the stiffness elements with the corresponding physical configuration of the targeting structure. The scale factors are determined to minimize the objective function of eigen-properties. The proposed method was tested to determine the joint stiffness of a T shaped beam. The test results were also compared with the tuned stiffness obtained from a probed commercial package (SYSTUNE) and found that this method is very accurate and compatible.

The objective of this study was to investigate the changes of the fabric absorbency, stiffness and antistatic property by using a fabric softner at laundering. The samples selected in this study were cotton and polyester fabrics. The cotton fabric was treated with 1/2 times(0.035%), 1 time(0.07%), 3 times(0.21%) and 10 times(0.7%) of the commercially suggested concentration (0.07%) of the fabric softner. And polyester fabric was done at 1 time(0.07%) of that. In order to examine the effect of the fabric by using a fabric softner, the abstraction of a surface active agent and quantitative analysis was performed by using a UV/VIS Spectroscopy and the correlations among the absorbency, stiffness and antistatic property was analyzed. The results obtained from this study were as follows; 1. In the cotton fabric, fabric softner gave the degradation of absorbency, and stiffness improvement was not shown by repeated fabric softner on the cotton fabric. 2. In the polyester fabric, the absorbency increased and the stiffness in creased very slightly. Specially, it is desirable to use fabric softner on the polyester due to improvement of antistatic property.

This paper study on the accuracy improvement of nonlinear stiffness equation. The large structure must have thin thickness for build the large space structure there fore structure instability review is important when we do structural design. The structure instability of the shelled structure is accept it sensitively by varied conditions. This come to a nonlinear problem with be concomitant large deformation. Accuracy of nonlinear stiffness equation must improve to examine structure instability. In this study, space truss is analysis model Among tangent stiffness equation and nonlinear stiffness equation is using nonlinearity analysis program. The study compares an analysis result to investigate accuracy and convergence properties improvement of nonlinear stiffness equation.

This work evaluates the influence of negative stiffness on the performances of various vehicle suspension systems, and proposes a re-centering negative stiffness device (NSD). The re-centering NSD consists of a passive magnetic negative stiffness spring and a positioning shaft with a re-centering function. The former produces negative stiffness control forces, and the latter prevents the amplification of static spring deflection. The numerical simulations reveal that negative stiffness can improve the ride comfort of a vehicle without affecting its road holding abilities for either passive or semi-active suspension systems. In general, the improvement degree of ride comfort increases as negative stiffness increases. For passive suspension system, negative stiffness brings in negative stiffness feature in the control forces, which is helpful for the ride comfort of a vehicle. For semi-active suspensions, negative stiffness can alleviate the impact of clipped damping in semi-active dampers, and thus the ride comfort of a vehicle can be improved.

A new concept of stock preparation for the increase of bending stiffness in paper and board was proposed. The 'stiff' fibers, which were mechanically not treated or treated slightly to remove fiber curls, were combined with extensively refined fibers (ERF) to produce higher stiffness papers than those where the whole fibers were refined. The combination of 'stiff' fibers and extensively refined fibers produced higher stiffness at the same tensile strength than the control furnish, in which all the fibers are refined together. In this concept, the fibers from recycled papers could be as much useful as the virgin fibers as long as they are stiff enough or they can produce highly bondable fiber fractions by extensive refining. Use of the concept in real paper mill needs considerations such as increase of refining energy, slower drainage, and added drying burden, but savings of wood fibers, utilization of more recycled fibers, and increase of physical properties may offset the negative concerns. The success of this concept implementation in mills, therefore, depends on the wood fiber market around the mills and the proper decision making for the papermakers about how to apply this concept.

The Spindle-]fearing System is very important unit for geometrical accuracy in machine tools. To improve effectively the weak point of spindle system, it is necessary that the contribution ratio of spindle core parts to static and dynamic stiffness is clarified. In this paper, static contribution ratio of core parts is calculated by overlapping static deformation of basic spindle design with one flexible parts. The dynamic contribution ratio for natural frequency and dynamic deformation at spindle end is obtained by calculating correlation between original and basic spindle deformation, by curve fitting with regressive method. It is proved the validity of estimation result is correct.

The demand for drywall is increasing as the structural type of apartment building is changing to a rigid frame structure. At present, the thickness of the gypsum board used for drywall is mostly 9.5mm and is required to be changed to 12.5mm to improve the performance of the wall. A structural safety test has been conducted in accordance with KS F 2613 to verify the effect of changing the thickness of the gypsum board to 12.5mm in terms of improvement as to stiffness. As a result of the test, the stiffness of the drywall has increased by about 19.6% and the impact resistance by about 30.4%.
