Damage evolution in the form of void nucleation, propagation and coalescence is the primary cause that is responsible for the ductile failure of microalloyed steels. The Gurson-Tvergaard-Needleman (GTN) damage model has proven to be extremely robust for characterizing the microscopic damage behavior of ductile metals. Nonetheless, successful applications of the model on a given metal type are limited by the correct identification of damage parameters as well as the validation of the calculated void growth rate. The purpose of this study is two-fold. First, we aim to identify the damage parameters of the GTN model for Q345 steel (Chinese code), due to its extensive application in mechanical and civil industries in China. The identification of damage parameters is facilitated by the well-suited response surface methodology, followed by a complete analysis of variance for evaluating the statistical significance of the identified model. Second, taking notched Q345 cylinders as an example, finite element simulations implemented with the identified GTN model are performed in order to analyze their microscopic damage behavior. In particular, the void growth rate predicted from the simulations is successfully correlated with experimentally measured acoustic emissions. The quantitative correlation suggests that during the yielding stage the void growth rate increases linearly with the acoustic emissions, while in the strain-hardening and softening period the dependence becomes an exponential function. The combined experimental and finite element approach provides a means for validating simulated void growth rate against experimental measurements of acoustic emissions in microalloyed steels.

Equivalent volume estimation of the coupler and two coupled microphones has a key role in standard microphone pressure calibration. The equivalent volume of the microphone is determined by the dynamic characteristics of the diaphragm system and front cavity. Therefore the modal parameters of diaphragm system - natural frequency and damping fatter - should be measured explicitly for the estimation of the equivalent volume. The diaphragm system is composed of the vibrating diaphragm, back slit behind diaphragm, pressure equalization vent, and front cavity which are acoustically coupled. In the measurement, the electrostatic actuator was used to excite the system with the swept sine, and the frequency response was obtained. The close actuator in front of the diaphragm must influence the radiation impedance of the system, and then the modal parameters. From the measured frequency response, the natural frequency and the damping factor could be estimated with the Complex exponential method based on the Prony model and the zero crossing real and imaginary plot.

This paper deals with reliability and MTTF analysis of a non-repairable man-machine system operating under different weather conditions. The system consists of a hardware(machine) and a two-operator standby subsystem such as the air combat maneuvering of fighters with dual seat. The failure times for the subsystems follow the exponential distribution with constant parameter. By considering not only the effect on hardware component but also the weather conditions and human performance factors such as the operator's errors, a Markov model is presented as a method for evaluating the system reliability of time continuous operation tasks. Laplace transforms of the various state probabilities have been derived and then reliability of the system, at any time t, has been computed by inversion process. MTTF has also been computed.

In accelerated life testing, a relationship is usually assumed between the stress and a parameter of the lifetime distribution. However, the true relationship is not usually known, and therefore, the experimenter may wish to provide protections against the likely departures from the assumed relationship. This paper considers an accelerated life test in which two stress levels are involved, and the lifetime of each test item at a stress level is assumed to have an independent, identical, exponential distribution. For the case where a first order relationship is assumed while the true one is quadratic, a procedure is developed for allocating test items to stress levels such that the bias and/or the variance of the estimated(log-transformed) mean lifetime at the use condition is minimized.

본 연구에서는 SWAT 모형과 HELP 모형을 이용하여 보청천 유역의 지하수 함양량을 산정하였다. SWAT 모형은 지표수 및 지하수 성분을 모두 고려할 수 있는 물순환 모형이지만, 토양층에 대한 침루과정의 물리적 해석이 미흡하다. 반면에 HELP 모형은 중간유출 및 지하수 유출성분을 모의하지 못하지만, 토양층에서의 비포화흐름을 고려하여 침루과정을 해석할 수 있다. 국내유역에서 함양량 산정을 위해 SWAT 모형은 여러 유역에서 성공적으로 적용되어 왔지만, HELP 모형의 국내유역에 대한 적용은 매우 미흡하였다. HELP 모형의 적용을 위하여 중간유출계수를 제안하였고, 수정된 지수형감쇠 가중함수를 이용하여 지하수 함양량을 산정하였다. HELP 모형의 함양량은 중간유출계수 값에 따라서 많은 차이를 나타내었다. 중간유출계수 값이 0.6인 경우에 HELP 모형과 SWAT 모형사이의 함양량 오차가 가장 작았으며 일, 월, 연단위 등 다양한 시간규모에 대하여 두 모형사이의 함양량은 비교적 잘 일치하였다. HELP 모형은 SWAT모형에 비하여 모형구조가 비교적 간단하고 입력변수가 적게 요구되므로 지하수 함양량 산정에 유용하게 적용될 수 있으며, SWAT 모형과 HELP 모형을 병행하여 적용하면 지하수 함양량 산정의 신뢰도가 향상될 것으로 판단된다.

In industries, shipping is an important issue in improving the forecasting accuracy of sales. This paper introduces a hybrid method and plural methods are compared. Focusing the equation of exponential smoothing method (ESM) that is equivalent to (1, 1) order autoregressive-moving-average (ARMA) model equation, a new method of estimating the smoothing constant in ESM had been proposed previously by us which satisfies minimum variance of forecasting error. Generally, the smoothing constant is selected arbitrarily. However, this paper utilizes the above stated theoretical solution. Firstly, we make estimation of ARMA model parameter and then estimate the smoothing constant. Thus, theoretical solution is derived in a simple way and it may be utilized in various fields. Furthermore, combining the trend removing method with this method, we aim to improve forecasting accuracy. This method is executed in the following method. Trend removing by the combination of linear and 2nd order nonlinear function and 3rd order nonlinear function is executed to the original production data of two kinds of bread. Genetic algorithm is utilized to search the optimal weight for the weighting parameters of linear and nonlinear function. For comparison, the monthly trend is removed after that. Theoretical solution of smoothing constant of ESM is calculated for both of the monthly trend removing data and the non-monthly trend removing data. Then forecasting is executed on these data. The new method shows that it is useful for the time series that has various trend characteristics and has rather strong seasonal trend. The effectiveness of this method should be examined in various cases.

The characteristics of the coherence functions of X axial, Y axial, and RZ axial (i.e., body axis) wind forces on the Shanghai World Trade Centre - a 492 m super-tall building with section varying along height are studied via a synchronous multi-pressure measurement of the rigid model in wind tunnel simulating of the turbulent, and the corresponding mathematical expressions are proposed there from. The investigations show that the mathematical expressions of coherence functions in across-wind and torsional-wind directions can be constructed by superimposition of a modified exponential decay function and a peak function caused by turbulent flow and vortex shedding respectively, while that in along-wind direction need only be constructed by the former, similar to that of wind speed. Moreover, an inductive analysis method is proposed to summarize the fitted parameters of the wind force coherence functions of every two measurement levels of altitudes. The comparisons of the first three order generalized force spectra show that the proposed mathematical expressions accord with the experimental results well. Later, the influences of coherence functions on wind-induced dynamic responses are analyzed in detail based on the proposed mathematical expressions and the frequency-domain method of random vibration theory.

This study was carried out for the purpose of selecting the most appropriate taper equation for the actual stands of Pinus thunbergii in the southern coastal region of Korea and then developing a stem volume table to provide basic data for rational management. To develop a volume table of Pinus thunbergii in this region of Korea, 59 sample trees with various diameter distributions were selected and stem analysis was performed. As a result of stem analysis, two trees with abnormal diameter and height growth as the age increased were rejected, and 57 trees were analyzed. To develop the taper equation, seven major variable exponential equations were used, including Kozak 1988, 1994, 2001, 2002, Bi 2000, Muhairwe 1999, and Sharma and Parton 2009. As a result of parameter estimation and statistical verification, the Kozak 1988 model showed the highest goodness of fit with Fit I (Fit Index), RMSE 1.5620, Bias 0.0031, and MAD 1.0784. The diameter of each 10cm stem ridge for the selected model was estimated, and a stem volume table was produced using the mensuration of division (end area formula) using the Smalian equation. As a result of two-sample T-test for volume table of this study and current yield table, the volume for this study was found to be significantly larger at all observation points (p < 0.001). Even for the same tree species, it is judged that differentiated volume tables are needed for each growth environment characteristic.

본 연구는 조건부가치측정법(CVM)의 지불의사유도 방법으로 가장 많이 적용되고 있는 양분선택형 응답자료를 활용하여 WTP 함수의 추정과 편익의 측정단계에 쟁점이 될 수 있는 경제이론적 근거, 확률분포의 가정, 확률모형의 표기, 함수형태 그리고 편익의 범위 등 분석자의 입장에서 중요한 제요소들에 대해 이론적으로 검토하고 산림보존을 위한 가치추정 자료를 사용하여 실증적으로 분석하였다. WTP 함수를 선형으로 표기하는 한, 확률효용모형과 확률지출모형은 쌍대적 접근으로 해석할 수 있었고, 또한 확률모형의 오차항의 분포를 정규분포로 하든지 로지스틱분포로 가정하든지 계수들의 추정치와 이들을 사용하여 측정된 표본 WTP도 차이가 없었다. 그러나 이중양분선택모형은 WTP 함수 추정과 편익측정 결과는 두 CV 제시금액에 대한 응답이 같은 WTP 분포로 왔다고 보기 어려워 단일양분선택형 모형이 갖는 유인일치성이 약화되었다. 나아가서 WTP를 비음의 영역으로 제한하는 WTP 함수형태의 경우 척도모수가 클 경우 표본 WTP의 평균과 중앙값이 크게 다른 것으로 나타났다.
