  • The benchmark on the ASCE cable-stayed bridge has gathered since its proposal the interest of many specialists in the field of the structural control and the dynamic response of long span bridges. Starting from the original benchmark statement in the MATLAB framework, a refined version of the bridge model is developed in the ANSYS commercial finite element environment. A passive structural control system is studied through non linear numerical analyses carried out in time domain for several seismic realizations in a multiple support framework. An innovative electro-inductive device is considered. Its positive performance is compared with an alternative version considering traditional metallic dampers.

  • Transport of bed load and suspended particle in coastal waters is main factor causing change in shoreline, and effective measurement method and appropriate equipment is required. To measure bed load and suspended particle transport an equipment was designed and manufactured, and it was applied in the field. The equipment consists of four main elements, body supporter, bed load and suspended particle sampler, sampler support and lock. Eight samplers were installed along the circumference of each supporter, and each sample is a 45-degree intervals. The field experiment was done once along Gyeongpo beach in August 2013. This note described the design and function of the equipment and results of field experiments.

  • The paper addresses an issue of industry-joint engineering education paradigm with the purpose of setting a new standard for engineering education by development and support of competitive curriculum for the interdisciplinary team-based product development, a specialized and innovative engineering education program. In the department of MSDE (Mechanical and System Design Engineering), students are educated via three major courses for targeting engineering design, Creative Engineering Design (freshman), Design Process (Senior), and Creative Product Development (Junior). All these courses are based on personal tool exercises for design software and hardware and team-project group activities of the students with other team members. This paper will briefly discuss the main focuses of these courses and case studies of the teaching results targeting the development of telecommunication device.

  • According to the target object for designer to sketch, an effective style or shape of input device can be defined differently. The general spatial sketching system that support various types of wand assist sketching effectively as changing suitable wand shape to the part of a target object. We suggest the idea of changing wand style by altering the posture of a 3D wand. This allows a designer to work in an intuitive way without being interrupted by complicated menus. We implement the various wand styles to the spatial sketching system with cubic-based drawing technique.

  • This paper presents a fundamental study to establish a standardization system of the Construction Continuous Acquisition and Life-cycle Support(CALS). A state of the art in standardization of the Construction CALS is reviewed to find some defects in developing CALS system in construction industry. It is analyzed that three major parts were needed to set up a standardization system for the Construction CALS. Firstly, the range of Construction CALS standardization is set up to identifying Construction CALS and defining the standards and standardization. Secondly, the strategy to carry out more effectively in Construction CALS standardization and make the relationship of the concerned system presented here can be used to establish the Construction CALS standardization system. In addition, the spread and application device are proposed to use Construction CALS standards at public institution and construction related companies. Conclusively, a classification of the Construction CALS standards was proposed and some objects to be standardized were represented in that. Results studied in this paper will provide the primary information and basic model to develop a guideline for standardization of the Construction CALS.

  • This paper presents the implementation of an integrated messaging gateway (IMG) based on the open services gateway initiative (OSGi) specification to deliver home messages between home and some telecommunication devices. The IMG has four service agents to support a diverse communication channel. In this paper, we describe a software architecture for a seamless messaging and device layouts in the IMG. And then, we detail each components allowing users to be notified automatically through a cellular phone, a telephone, and the Internet.

  • In this paper, we present a design evaluation system with visualization and interaction of mobile devices using virtual-reality-based prototypes which can be used to easily change design parameters and simulate embedded software. To evaluate and predict affective-engineering-based design preferences for mobile devices under a virtual environment, we have developed a high quality visualization platform which creates images that look similar to real mobile devices in addition to real-time simulation of realistic motions and functions of mobile devices. To support a quantitative usability test scenario for external design shape, we also have built a system which consists of a mixed-reality-based testing platform for measuring hand load.

  • In this paper, a user-friendly mobile photo album system and albuming functions to support it are introduced. Stand-alone implementation in a mobile device is considered. The main idea of user-friendly photo browsing for albuming functions is to enable users to organize and browse their photos along semantically meaningful axes of events, personal identities, and categories. Experimental results demonstrate that the proposed method would be sufficiently useful and efficient for browsing personal photos in mobile environment.

  • The purpose of this study is to investigate the research model attempting to explain factors influencing consumers' attitude towards Smartphone adoption and behavioral intention to use a Smartphone. The 357 sets of data are tested against the model using SEM (structural equation model). The research results reveal that organizational and social influences, consumers' self-actualization, and trust affect consumers' attitude towards Smartphone adoption, and behavioral control influences behavioral intention. Implications of the findings suggest that Smartphone should be approached with a holistic view, suggesting that Smartphone research should emphasize Smartphone as a convergent device including both hardware and software with services and applications. Research results are discussed, and limitations of the current study and future research are presented.
