The purpose of this paper is to find and compare efficient and "statistically accurate" algorithms for linear systems with bandlimited random inputs. Using the previously investigated truncated expansions[2], a new state-transition algorithm is derived. With statistical error criteria (mean-square error), comparative study on the Performances has been done for the first and second-order linear system models. The results show that a new bandlimited state-transition algorithm works better than any commonly used algorithms (e. g., first-order state-transition method or Z-transform method).

The fatigue crack growth under mixed mode condition has been discussed within the scope of linear fracture mechanics such as maximum tangential stress, maximum tangential principal stress and minimum strain energy density. The purpose of this study is to investigate the characteristics of fatigue test crack growth in 304 stainless steel under mixed node. The fatigue test results carried out by using inclined pre-crack specimens was compared to both of the theoretical predictions of the criteria, maximum tangential stress and stain energy density. As difference from theoretical analysis, the transition region from mixed mode to mode I appeared in the fatigue test. There is deep relationship between the angle of slanted pre-crack and transition. Therefore, as applying the different stress intensity factor to each node I+II and mode I, the directions and rates of fatigue crack growth are evaluated more accurately under mixed mode.

Recently, considerable progress and many breakthroughs have been achieved in the growth of two-dimensional materials, especially transition metal dichalcogenides (TMDCs), which attract significant attention owing to their unique properties originating from their atomically thin layered structure. Chemical vapor deposition (CVD) has shown great promise to fabricate large-scale and high-quality TMDC films with exceptional electronic and optical properties. However, the scalable growth of high-quality TMDCs by CVD is yet to meet industrial criteria. Therefore, growth mechanisms should be unveiled for a deeper understanding and further improvement of growth methods are required. This review summarizes the recent progress in the growth methods of TMDCs through CVD and other modified approaches to gain insights into the growth of large-scale and high-quality TMDCs.

PURPOSES : In this research, an SB3-level roadside barrier for a highway transition zone that meets the newly established guide Installation and Management Guide for Roadside Safety Appurtenance is developed. Its performance is evaluated by a numerical simulation and real-scale vehicle impact test. METHODS : The commercial explicit dynamic software LS-DYNA is utilized for impact simulation. An FE model of a passenger vehicle developed and released by the National Crash Analysis Center (NCAC) at George Washington University and a heavy goods vehicle (HGV) model developed by the TC226/CM-E Work Group are utilized for impact simulation. The original vehicle models were modified to reflect the conditions of test vehicles. The impact positions of the passenger vehicle and truck to the transition guardrail were set as 1/2 and 3/4 of the transition region, respectively, according to the guide. RESULTS : Based on the numerical simulation results of the existing transition barrier, a new structural system with improved performance was suggested. According to the result of a numerical simulation of the suggested structural system, two sets of transition barriers were manufactured and installed for real-scale vehicle impact tests. The tests were performed at a test field for roadside safety hardware of the Korea Highway Corporation Research Institute. CONCLUSIONS : The results of both the real-vehicle impact tests and numerical simulations of the developed transition barrier satisfied the performance criteria, and the results of numerical simulation showed good correlation with the test results.

Hydrogen safety is one of important issues for future public usage of hydrogen. When hydrogen is released in a compartment, the occurrence of detonation must be prohibited. In order to evaluate the possibility of DDT (Deflagration to Detonation Transition) in the compartment with the hydrogen release, sigma-lambda criteria which were developed from experimental data are commonly used. But they give a little conservative results because they do not consider the detailed geometrical effect of the compartment. This is the main reason of the need to mechanistic combustion model for evaluation of hydrogen flame propagation and acceleration. In this study, sigma-lambda criteria and combustion model were systematically applied to evaluate a possibility of DDT in a IRWST compartment of APR1400 nuclear power plant during a hypothetical accident. A combustion model in an open source CFD code OpenFOAM has been applied for analyses of hydrogen flame propagation. The model was validated by evaluating the flame acceleration tests conducted in FLAME facility. And it was applied to evaluate the characteristics of a hydrogen flame propagation in the IRWST compartment of APR1400.

The aim of this study is to propose the criteria for a evaluation model of the lifetime household work and organize the model. The results were as follows: Three criteria for a evaluation model of the life-time household work were proposed. $\circled1$ An appropriate framework of the evaluation model should be based on the transition of the family life. $\circled2$ The model should include major variables influencing the value of household work of homemaker. $\circled3$ The model should be flexible enough to accommodate various evaluation methods, and should reflect idiosyncracies of different evaluation methods. In view of the criteria stated above, the present study is based on the family life cycle framework. And the age of the last offspring exhibits a consistent major influence in the evaluation based on the household work hours, while the education level of homemakers shows a consistent major influence in the evaluation based on household worker. So as to reflect these two major variables in the family life cycle framework.

In this paper, the design criteria of future container crane for megaships are investigated. The current loading/unloading capacity of a typical container crane, roughly 30 moves/hr, is too law to meet the requirements of future super containerships, which are expected over 15,000 TEU. After examining the transition of containerships through the years and studying the research trend in developed countries, the specifications of the container crane that can Meet a 15,000 TEU containership are proposed. The structure, trolley and hoist mechanism, outreach, backreach, capacity, speeds, durability, and stability of the future container crane are described.

Purpose: The purpose of this research was to develop a scale to measure the life transition process of parents of children with autism, against the backdrop of a lack of research on this topic. Methods: Seventy preliminary items were drawn from previous qualitative research, and content validity was tested by three professors as well as three parents of children with autism. A questionnaire survey was also done between August 2011 and February 2012. Data were collected from 207 parents of children with autism and analyzed using descriptive statistics, item analysis, Cronbach's alpha, Pearson correlation coefficients, and factor analysis with the SPSS Win 15.0 program. Results: Twenty-nine items were selected to constitute the appropriate measuring scale and categorized into 5 factors explaining 63.2% of the total variance. The 5 factors were named; stages of denial (5 items), wandering (6 items), devotion (7 items), frustration (3 items), and finally acceptance (8 items). Cronbach's alpha for the 29 items was .80. Conclusion: The results of this study not only suggest assessment criteria for the life transition process of parents who have children with autism but also provide basic directions for program development to provide differentiated support and care at each stage.

In railway construction, superimposition of horizontal and vertical curves has critical effects on the running stability and the ride comfort of vehicles as well as on construction costs. In this study, running safety, ride comfort, and track acting forces were analyzed by a numerical analysis using the VAMPIRE program according to cases of superimposition of vertical and horizontal curves. From the analysis results, it was found that running safety, riding comfort, and track acting forces in the case of superimposition of vertical and horizontal curves as well as vertical and transition curves meet all of the criteria. Also, in the case of the superimposition of vertical curves and curvature change between horizontal transition curves and circular curves meet all of the criteria.
