조적구조는 소규모 건축물에서는 내력벽으로 사용되나 일반적으로 비내력벽으로 간주되어 건축물 골조구조의 내부공간을 구분하는 칸막이벽으로 활용되어진다. 또한 조적공사에서 블록이나 벽돌간의 접착제로 모르타르를 사용하는 습식공법은 양생시간이 필요하여 기후조건에 영향을 받으며, 특히 지진과 같은 횡력에 대해 모르타르의 균열로 벽체의 전도붕괴 등이 발생할 수 있어 매우 취약한 구조이다. 본 연구에서는 이러한 조적구조의 약축방향 전단강성을 보완하고 습식공법의 단점을 개선하는 건식 콘크리트블록 공법을 제안하고 그 구조거동을 규명하고자 한다. 이에 본 연구에서는 콘크리트블록의 재료물성을 살펴보고 수평반복하중에 대한 구조거동실험을 통해 제안된 건식조립 콘크리트블록 벽체의 내진성능을 검증하고자 한다. 본 연구결과에 의하면 첫째로, 콘크리트블록은 KS규준에 C종 블록의 재료성능 이상을 확보하고 있어 습식공법을 대신하는 건식공법에 적용할 수 있을 것이다. 둘째로, 수평반복하중에 대한 벽체의 구조성능은 벽체의 수평길이가 길어짐에 따라 사용된 표준형블록의 증가로 다수의 대각선방향 균열대를 형성하면서 조립블록벽체의 내력이 커짐을 알 수 있다. 끝으로 제안된 건식조립 콘크리트블록 벽체구조는 높이와 길이에 의한 벽체의 형상비가 수평 하중을 받는 구조거동에 주요 영향변수로 판단되어 이를 고려한 내진성능평가가 필요하다.

본 전기자동차(EV)의 사용을 늘리고 계통 부담을 최소화하기 위해 재생에너지를 사용하는 마이크로그리드가 중요한 역할을 담당해야 한다. 마이크로그리드는 소형 디젤발전과 같은 화석연료를 사용할 수도 있지만, 많은 경우에 친환경 에너지인 재생에너지로부터 에너지를 공급받을 수 있다. 그러나 태양광과 풍력과 같은 재생에너지는 가변적인 출력 특성을 갖는다. 따라서 전기자동차의 충·방전 에너지 수요를 충족하는 동시에 안정적으로 부하 전력을 공급하기 위해서 마이크로그리드에 디젤발전 또는 전기차-그리드(V2G)를 병행 에너지원으로 활용하는 전기자동차 충전인프라 구성에 대한 검토가 필요하다. 이와 같은 배경으로 본 연구에서는 태양광발전, 풍력발전, 디젤발전과 V2G를 활용하여 부하에 안정적으로 전력을 공급할 수 있는 마이크로그리드의 모델을 구성하였다. 제안된 마이크로그리드는 태양광발전과 풍력발전을 1차 공급에너지원으로 전력 수요에 대응토록 하고, 부하의 전기차의 운영 유형과 부하 동기기의 회전속도를 판단하여 부족 전력에 대해 디젤발전으로부터 안정적으로 전력을 공급할 수 있는 모델이다. 이렇게 제안된 모델의 시스템 성능을 검증하기 위해 MATLAB/Simulink로 시뮬레이션함으로써 마이크로그리드의 안정적 운영 방안을 고찰하였다.

경량화 소재 중 CFRP(Carbon Fiber Reinforced Plastic)는 카본 섬유를 이용한 섬유구조물이다. 카본과 플라스틱의 특성을 갖는 복합소재이다. 섬유구조는 섬유방향으로 큰 강도를 갖는다. 이러한 경량 소재인 CFRP로 가장 많이 사용되는 것은 직조된 CFRP이다. 직조된 CFRP는 단방향 CFRP에 비하여 구조가 안정적이기 때문이다. 단직조된 CFRP는 고가이다. 따라서 본 연구는 단방향 CFRP의 섬유 구조 특성을 파악하고자 하였다. 본 연구에서는 적층각도 [0/X/-X/0]로 X를 변수로 갖는다. X의 각도 위상이 반전되어 적층된 단방향 CFRP이다. 이러한 단방향 CFRP를 이용하여 중앙 크랙을 갖는 두께 2 mm 판재 형태의 해석 모델을 이용하였다. 해석에서는 핀으로 연결된 상부와 하부에서 하중이 가해지고 있으며 중앙 크랙부분에서 파단을 연구한다. 해석 모델은 CATIA를 이용한 3D Surface 모델로 설계하였다. CFRP 적층을 위해, ANSYS프로그램에서 ACP를 이용한 적층 방향을 결정하여 2개의 적층들을 갖는 해석 모델을 만들었다. 이후 구조해석을 진행하였다.

This study attempts to shed light on the coupled impact of types of loading, thickness stretching, and types of variation of Winkler-Pasternak foundations on the flexural behavior of simply- supported FG plates according to the new quasi-3D high order shear deformation theory, including integral terms. A new function sheep is used in the present work. In particular, both Winkler and Pasternak layers are non-uniform and vary along the plate length direction. In addition, the interaction between the loading type and the variation of Winkler-Pasternak foundation parameters is considered and involved in the governing equilibrium equations. Using the virtual displacement principle and Navier's solution technique, the numerical results of non-dimensional stresses and displacements are computed. Finally, the non-dimensional formulas' results are validated with the existing literature, and excellent agreement is detected between the results. More importantly, several complementary parametric studies with the effect of various geometric and material factors are examined. The present analytical model is suitable for investigating the bending of simply-supported FGM plates for special technical engineering applications.

Background: The National Breast Cancer Audit Database of the Society of Breast Surgeons of Australia and New Zealand is used by surgeons to monitor treatment quality and for research. About 60% of early invasive female breast cancers in Australia are recorded. The objectives of this study are: (1) to investigate associations of socio-demographic, health-system and clinical characteristics with treatment of invasive female breast cancer by mastectomy compared with breast conserving surgery; and (2) to consider service delivery implications. Materials and Methods: Bi-variable and multivariable analyses of associations of characteristics with surgery type for cancers diagnosed in 1998-2010. Results: Of 30,299 invasive cases analysed, 11,729 (39%) were treated by mastectomy as opposed to breast conserving surgery. This proportion did not vary by diagnostic year (p>0.200). With major city residence as the reference category, the relative rate (95% confidence limits) of mastectomy was 1.03 (0.99, 1.07) for women from inner regional areas and 1.05 (1.01, 1.10) for those from more remote areas. Low annual surgeon case load (${\leq}10$) was predictive of mastectomy, with a relative rate of 1.08 (1.03, 1.14) when compared with higher case loads. Tumour size was also predictive, with a relative rate of 1.05 (1.01, 1.10) for large cancers (40+ mm) compared with smaller cancers (<30 mm). These associations were confirmed in multiple logistic regression analysis. Conclusions: Results confirm previous studies showing higher mastectomy rates for residents of more remote areas, those treated by surgeons with low case loads, and those with large cancers. Reasons require further study, including possible effects of surgeon and woman's choice and access to radiotherapy services.

A new type of buckling-restrained braces (BRBs) with a longitudinally profiled steel plate working as the core (LPBRB) is proposed and experimentally investigated. Different from conventional BRBs with a constant thickness core, both stiffness and strength of the longitudinally profiled steel core along its longitudinal direction can change through itself variable thickness, thus the construction of LPBRB saves material and reduces the processing cost. Four full-scale component tests were conducted under quasi-static cyclic loading to evaluate the seismic performance of LPBRB. Three stiffening methods were used to improve the fatigue performance of LPBRBs, which were bolt-assembled T-shaped stiffening ribs, partly-welded stiffening ribs and stiffening segment without rib. The experimental results showed LPBRB specimens displayed stable hysteretic behavior and satisfactory seismic property. There was no instability or rupture until the axial ductility ratio achieved 11.0. Failure modes included the out-of-plane buckling of the stiffening part outside the restraining member and core plate fatigue fracture around the longitudinally profiled segment. The effect of the stiffening methods on the fatigue performance is discussed. The critical buckling load of longitudinally profiled segment is derived using Euler theory. The local bulging behavior of the outer steel tube is analyzed with an equivalent beam model. The design recommendations for LPBRB are presented finally.

Objective: The aim of this study was to provide a method to improve the compliance and reduce the time by reducing the workload during the model change work. Background: The enterprises are constructing the small quantity batch production system by increasing the number of model change and reducing model-changing. However, the compliance is low because the work is strenuous and high skills are needed, so the system management is facing with many difficulties. Method: After classifying the model change work according to the purposes(preparation, change and adjustment) with the target of mascara filling machine, element tasks time were measured and the motion analysis(therblig symbol) and REBA analysis were performed. The study incorporated 3 independent variables as the number of motion, REBA score and the element time. The dependent variable is the type of element work as preparation, change and adjustment. The statistical test was performed by one-way ANOVA(${\alpha}$ < 0.05). Results: For the preparation, the number of motions appeared in the order of Use(U), Transport Loaded(TL), and Position(P). The order appeared in change is Use(U), Release Load(RL), and Grasp (G). The adjustment appeared in the order of Position(P) and Use(U). The results of average motion time as the element work times divided by the number of motion appeared in the order of adjustment(1.85sec/motion), preparation(1.11sec/motion), and change(0.62sec/motion). The results of REBA showed that the average risk level of change and adjustment were medium, but 53.1% of change and 42.9% of adjustment were evaluated as high. Conclusion: Reducing the avoidance and improving the compliance of work could be expected if the job autonomy were improved by improving the working postures with high risk level. Application: It is expected to solve the problem of reducing the time of model change work in the small quantity batch production system. The future work is to carry out the improvement directions found in the results and compare the results after improvement.

This study was carried out to investigate the possibility of improving the performance of a kerosene engine with water addition. The engine used in this study was a single-cylinder, four-cycle kerosene engine with the compression ratio of 4.5. Water could be successfully added into the inlet manifold by an extra carburetor for the volumetric ratios of 5, 10, 20, and 30 percents. Variable speed tests at wide-open throttle were performed for five speed levels in the range of 1,000 to 2,200rpm for each fuel type. Volumetric efficiency and brake specific fuel consumption were determined, and brake thermal efficiency based on the lower heats of combustion of kerosene was calculated. To examine variation in fuel consumption, CO concentration, and cooling water temperature, part load tests were also performed. The results obtained are summarized as follow. (1) Brake torque increased almost in proportion to volumetric efficiency. But the ratio of increase in torque was greater than that of volumetric efficiency. Mean torque over the speed range of 1,000 to 2,200rpm increased 1, 3, 7, and 2 percents for 5, 10, 20, and 30 percents water addition, respectively. The increase in brake torque with water addition was greater at lower speeds. (2) Mean brake specific fuel consumption over the speed range of 1,000 to 2,200rpm decreased 1, 2, 3, and 3 percents for 5, 10, 20, and 30 percents water addition, respectively. (3) Mean temperature of cooling water over the speed range of 1,000 to 2,200rpm decreased 2, 4, 8, and 12 percents for 5, 10, 20, and 30 percents water addition, respectively. (4) The effects of decreasing CO concentration in the exhaust emissions with water addition were significant. At the speed range of 1,000 to 2,200rpm, CO concentration in the exhaust emissions decreased 2, 10, 23, percents for 5, 10, and 20 percents water addition, respectively. (5) Deposits were not discovered in the combustion chamber during the experiment. However, a little rust was formed in the water-supply carburetor.

The depth(D) can be expressed as a function of the towing velocity(V) and the warp length(L) as D=92.49.$V^1.37$(unit: m, k't, L= 150m) D= 12.07+0.32. L (unit: m, V=2k't) [)= - 7.90+0.22 . L (unit: m, V=3k't) 3. Some problems were found to operate A - type full scale net by common bottom pair trawlers. The problems can be summarized as follows; (1) Entangling of wing and square head ropes while net casting.(2) Man power needed and time spent for net hauling by common bottom trawlers increased considerably.( 3) Tearing of nettings caused by over -load of tension and entangling of net pendant while net hauling. To solve these problems, the trawlers are favorable to be equipped with variable pitch propeller and llet drum. While the net is favorable to be constructed with trifurcated net pendant in stead of quadrifurcated net pendant used at present.

In this paper, the power conditioner composed of the stand-alone single-phase squirrel cage rotor type self-excited induction generator (SEIG) driven by prime movers such as a wind turbine and a micro gas turbine (MGT) is presented by using the steady-state circuit analysis based on the two nodal admittance approaches using the per-unit frequency in addition to a new state variable defined by the per-unit slip frequency along with its performance evaluations for the stand-alone energy utilizations. The stande-alone single-phase SEIG operating performances in unregulated voltage control loop are then evaluated on line under the conditions of the speed change transients of the prime mover and the stand-alone electrical passive load power variations with the simple theoretical analysis and the efficient computation processing procedures described in the part I of this paper. In addition, a feasuible PI controlled feedback closed-loop voltage regulation scheme of the stande-alone single-phase SEIG is designed on the basis of the static VAR compensate. (SVC) and discussed in experiment for the promising stand-alone power conditioner. The experimental operating performance results are illustrated and give good agreements with the simulation ones. The simulation and experimental results of the stand-alone single-phase SEIG with the simple SVC controller for its stabilized voltage regulation prove the practical effectiveness of the additional SVC control loop scheme including the PI controller with fast response characteristics and steady-sate performance improvements.
