A finite element method based on the two-dimensional progressive failure analysis is presented for characterizing the strength and failure of the unidirectional-fabric hybrid laminated composite joints under pin loading. The 8-node laminated shell element is incorporated in the updated Lagrangian formulation. Various failure criteria including the maximum stress, Tsai-Wu, Yamada-Sun, and combinations of them are used in conjunction with the complete unloading stiffness degradation method. For the verification, joint tests are conducted for the specimens with various geometries. Although there are some differences depending on the geometry, the finite element model using the Yamada-Sun or the combined Yamada-Sun and Tsai-Wu criterion predicts the failure strength best.

Recently as flat display panels are getting narrower, TV wall mounts also become slimmer for interior design issue. In this study CFRP(Carbon Fiber Reinforced Plastic) was used for TV wall mount to satisfy slim arm design along with enough strength and low weight. The 16 staking sequences was made with orthogonal array to reduce experimental cases. Strength analysis of the TV wall mount arm made of CFRP laminate was studied on condition of staking sequences using FEA(Finite Element Analysis) and stiffness and strength of those cases were evaluated using deflection and Tsai-Wu's Failure criterion. The result showed that [$-45^{\circ}/90^{\circ}/45^{\circ}/0^{\circ}/-45^{\circ}$] lay up case was suitable for the wall mount arm staking design from the criteria of deflection and Tsai-Wu's Failure Index.

The strength design for the lightweight bicycle wheel made of the Carbon/Epoxy composite laminates has been discussed in this paper. For bicycle wheel design, lightness of the wheel is important. Also, it has to satisfy the required strength under specific loading cases. Two testing methods for the bicycle wheel, i.e. vertical and complex loadings, are adopted in this study. Because the strengths of composite wheel is different in relation to the stacking sequence and the number of plies, it is important to decide an appropriate stacking sequence and number of layers for the composite wheel. From the finite element analysis results, the most stable sequence orientation and number of layers are determined. The stacking sequence $[0]_{8n}$, $[90]_{8n}$, $[0/90]_{2ns}$, $[{\pm}45]_{2ns}$, $[0/{\pm}45/90]_{ns}$ (n=1,2,3,4)are performed for finite element analysis. From results, $[0/{\pm}45/90]_{3s}$ lay-up is a good selection for the composite bicycle wheel. Also, the weakest point and layer are found in this study.

Engineering and Technology have been influencing a lot in the field of sports. Competitiveness, attributes of sports, have forced not only sports players but sports goods to enhance those performance. Particularly in the field of motorsports, the convergence of sports and technology has long been done to satisfy between performance and safety. In this study, strength analysis was carried with FEM to develop CFRP Laminate(Carbon Fiber Reinforced Plastic Laminate) bucket seat targeted to motorsports and car tuning industries and FIA($F\acute{e}d\acute{e}ration$ Internationale de l'Automobile) regulation was applied to design the racing seat and evaluate its strength. FEM modeling considered the attributes of composites was followed by strength evaluation based on Tsai-Wu failure index were done according to Lay-up sequence and layer numbers. The result showed that the lay-up sequence with stacking angle such as $[0^{\circ}/30^{\circ}/60^{\circ}/90^{\circ}/-30^{\circ}/-60^{\circ}]_4$ with 3mm form core was optimal selection in the field of weight and strength evaluation.

Strength design for a lightweight bicycle frame made of carbon/epoxy composite laminates was studied using Tsai-Wu's failure criterion. For the design of bicycle frames, reducing the weight of the frame is of great importance. Furthermore, the frame should satisfy the required strength under specific loading cases. In accordance with the European EN 14764 standard for bicycle frames, three loading cases-pedaling, vertical, and level loadings-were investigated in this study. Because of the anisotropic characteristics of composite materials, it is important to decide the appropriate stacking sequence and the number of layers to be used in the composite bicycle frame. From finite element analysis results, the most suitable stacking sequence of the fiber orientation and the number of layers were determined. The stacking sequences of $[0]_{8n}$, $[90]_{8n}$, $[0/90]_{2ns}$, $[{\pm}45]_{2ns}$, $[0/{\pm}45/90]_{ns}$ (n = 1, 2, 3, 4) were used in the analysis. The results indicated that the $[0/{\pm}45/90]_{3s}$ lay-up model was suitable for a composite bicycle frame. Furthermore, the weakest point and layer were investigated.

A 4-year joint research project (1999-2003), entitled "The Development of Multiple Talents (DMT)", has been designed and carrying out under the sponsorship of the National Science Council, R.O.C. (Taiwan). A 3-dimension construct is proposed for the DMT: form of talents (10 forms, mainly based on Gardner′s theory of multiple intelligences), function of talents (3 functions, based on Stemberg′s conception of successful intelligence), and developmental stage (4 stages, from pre-school to senior high). To take an example of its empirical studies, Wu and Chien (2000), based on a renovated conception of personal intelligence, developed the "Personal Intelligence Inventory" (PII). By means of the PII, it was found that there were some personal intelligence differences between gifted and regular pupils: however, gifted group was not as superior as on academic performance to the regular one (Wu '||'&'||' Chien, 2000). It was also found that there were significant relationships between pupils′personal intelligence and school adjustment in both groups (Tsai '||'&'||' Wu, 2000).
