The recent trend in modern systems development can be characterized by the increasing complexity in terms of both the functionality and HW/SW scale that seems to be accelerated by the growing user requirements and the rapid advancement of technology. Among the issues of complexity, the one related to systems safety has attracted great deal of attention lately in the development of the products ranging from mass-transportation systems to defence weapon systems. As such, the incorporation of safety requirements in systems development is becoming more important. Note, however, that since such safety-critical systems are usually complex to develop, a lot of organizations and thus, engineers should participate in the development. In general, there seems to be a variety of differences in both the breadth and depth of the technical background they own. To address the problems, at first this paper presents an effective design process for safety-critical systems, which is intended to meet both the systems design and safety requirements. The result is then advanced to obtain the models utilizing the systems modeling language (SysML) that is a de facto industry standard. The use of SysML can facilitate the construction of the integrated process and also foster active communication among many participants of diverse technical backgrounds. As a case study, the model-based development of high-speed trains is discussed.

Real-time hybrid simulation (RTHS) of a stacked wood shear wall retrofitted with a rate-dependent seismic energy dissipation device (viscous damper) was conducted at the newly constructed Structural Engineering Laboratory at the University of Alabama. This paper describes the implementation process of the RTHS focusing on the controller scheme development. An incremental approach was adopted starting from a controller for the conventional slow pseudodynamic hybrid simulation and evolving to the one applicable for RTHS. Both benchmark-scale and full-scale tests are discussed to provide a roadmap for future RTHS implementation at different laboratories and/or on different structural systems. The developed RTHS controller was applied to study the effect of a rate-dependent energy dissipation device on the seismic performance of a multi-story wood shear wall system. The test specimen, setup, program and results are presented with emphasis given to inter-story drift response. At 100% DBE the RTHS showed that the multi-story shear wall with the damper had 32% less inter-story drift and was noticeably less damaged than its un-damped specimen counterpart.

본 논문에서는 현대 한국어에서 나타나는 언어 변화 현상에 대한 설명과 그러한 언어 현상이 언어 처리 시스템에 미칠 수 있는 영향을 연구한다. 현대 한국어에서는〔관형형 어미 + 의존 명사 + (조사)〕와 같은 통사론적 구성이 형태론적 구성으로 변화되는 과정이 나타나고 있으며 몇몇 형태에서는 문자 언어 생활에서도 두드러지게 나타나고 있다. 이러한 예로 통사론적 구성〔관형형 어미 + 의존명사‘데’(+조사)〕이‘-는데’로,〔관형형 어미 + 의존명사‘것’+ 조사〕구성이‘-는게’로 나타나고 있으며, 음성 언어 생활에서는 더욱 두드러지고 있어서 다른 어미와 구별하기 어렵다. 이와 같은 유형의 형태는 다른 접속 문 어미나 내포문 어미처럼 복합문 구성에 관여하는 것으로 파악할 수 있는데, 다른 어미와는 달리 이 형태 자체에 문법적인 격 기능이 융합되어 있다. 따라서, 이러한 형태에 대한 분석 방법은 언어 처리 시스템의 구성에 영향을 미칠 수 있으며, 자동 태깅 시스템. 통사 분석 시스템 등에는 특히 그러하다. 그러므로, 언어 처리 시스템의 설계에 이러한 언어 변화 현상이 반영될 필요가 있다.

A perforated shear connector group is commonly used to transfer shear in steel-concrete composite structures when the traditional shear stud connection is not strong enough. The multi-hole perforated shear connector demonstrates a more complicated behavior than the single connector. The internal force distribution in a specific multi-hole perforated shear connector group has not been thoroughly studied. This study focuses on the load-carrying capacity and shear force distribution of multi-hole perforated shear connectors in steel-concrete composite structures. ANSYS is used to develop a three-dimensional finite element model to simulate the behavior of multi-hole perforated connectors. Material and geometric nonlinearities are considered in the model to identify the failure modes, ultimate strength, and load-slip behavior of the connection. A three-layer model is introduced and a closed-form solution for the shear force distribution is developed to facilitate design calculations. The shear force distribution curve of the multi-hole shear connector is catenary, and the efficiency coefficient must be considered in different limit states.

The investigation of retaining wall structures behavior under dynamic loads is considered as one of important parts for designing such structures. Generally, the performance of these structures is under the influence of the environment conditions and their geometry. The aim of this research is to design retaining wall structures based on smart and optimal systems. The use of accuracy and speed to assess the structures under different conditions is one of the important parts sought by designers. Therefore, optimal and smart systems are able to have better addressing these problems. Using numerical and coding methods, this research investigates the retaining wall structure design under different dynamic conditions. More than 9500 models were constructed and considered for modelling design. These designs include height and thickness of the wall, soil density, rock density, soil friction angle, and peak ground acceleration (PGA) variables. Accordingly, a neural network system was developed to establish an appropriate relationship between data to obtain safety factor (SF) of retaining walls under different seismic conditions. Different parameters were analyzed and the effect of each parameter was assessed separately. According to these analyses, the structure optimization was performed to increase the SF values. The optimal and smart design showed that under different PGA conditions, the structure performance can be appropriately improved while utilization of the initial (or basic) parameters leads to the structure failure. Therefore, by increasing accuracy and speed, smart methods could improve the retaining structure performance in controlling the wall failure. The intelligent design process of this study can be applied to some other civil engineering applications such as slope stability.

Present paper focuses on the modeling of size effect on the compressive strength of normal concrete with the application of Discrete Element Method (DEM). Test specimens with different size and shape were cast and uniaxial compressive strength test was performed on each sample. Five different concrete mixes were used, all belonging to a different normal strength concrete class (C20/25, C30/37, C35/45, C45/55, and C50/60). The numerical simulations were carried out by using the PFC 5 software, which applies rigid spheres and contacts between them to model the material. DEM modeling of size effect could be advantageous because the development of micro-cracks in the material can be observed and the failure mode can be visualized. The series of experiments were repeated with the model after calibration. The relationship of the parallel bond strength of the contacts and the laboratory compressive strength test was analyzed by aiming to determine a relation between the compressive strength and the bond strength of different sized models. An equation was derived based on Bazant's size effect law to estimate the parallel bond strength of differently sized specimens. The parameters of the equation were optimized based on measurement data using nonlinear least-squares method with SSE (sum of squared errors) objective function. The laboratory test results showed a good agreement with the literature data (compressive strength is decreasing with the increase of the size of the specimen regardless of the shape). The derived estimation models showed strong correlation with the measurement data. The results indicated that the size effect is stronger on concretes with lower strength class due to the higher level of inhomogeneity of the material. It was observed that size effect is more significant on cube specimens than on cylinder samples, which can be caused by the side ratios of the specimens and the size of the purely compressed zone. A limit value for the minimum size of DE model for cubes and cylinder was determined, above which the size effect on compressive strength can be neglected within the investigated size range. The relationship of model size (particle number) and computational time was analyzed and a method to decrease the computational time (number of iterations) of material genesis is proposed.

순환 잔골재 혼합비율에 따른 압축강도는 설계기준강도별 보통콘크리트 대비 순환 잔골재 혼합비율에 따라 유사하거나 다소 낮은 강도 발현을 보였으며, 순환 잔골재 혼합비율이 증가할수록 압축강도는 감소하는 경향을 보였다. 재령일이 증가할수록 강도저하는 발생하지 않았으며, 설계기준강도 대비 강도 발현이 가능할 것으로 판단된다. 순환 잔골재 15 %, 20 %, 25 %로 혼합비율에 따른 순환골재 콘크리트의 길이변화 및 동결융해에 대한 내구특성은 보통콘크리트와 유사한 경향으로 나타났다. 콘크리트용 순환 잔골재의 비율은 총 골재량의 25 %(총잔골재의 50 %)까지 적용하면 슬럼프 및 공기량에 문제가 없을 것으로 판단되며, 설계기준강도에 따른 분체량과 단위수량 및 공기연행제량에 대한 관리가 필요할 것으로 판단된다.

A high-performance reactive powder concrete (RPC) has been readied alongside river sand, with 1.25 mm particle size when under the condition of 80C steam curing. As a heat and sound insulation, expanded perlite aggregate (EPA) provides economic advantages in building. Concrete containing EPA is examined in terms of cement types (CEM II 32.5R and CEM I 42.5R), doses (0, 2%, 4% and 6%) as well as replacement rates in this research study. The compressive and density of concrete were used in the testing. At the end of the 28-day period, destructive and nondestructive tests were performed on cube specimens of 150 mm150 mm150 mm. The concrete density is not decreased with the addition of more perlite (from 45 to 60 percent), since the enlarged perlite has a very low barrier to crushing. To get a homogenous and fluid concrete mix, longer mixing times for all the mix components are necessary due to the higher amount of perlite. As a result, it is not suggested to use greater volumes of this aggregate in RPC. In the presence of de-icing salt, the lightweight RPC exhibits excellent freeze-thaw resistance (mass is less than 0.2 kg/m²). The addition of perlite strengthens the aggregate-matrix contact, but there is no apparent ITZ. An increased compressive strength was seen in concretes containing expanded perlite powder and steel fibers with good performance.

카르복실기가 결합된 고분자 자성체 (Magnetic beads)를 이용하여 토양에 함유되어 있는 유동성 카드뮴의 분석 가능성을 알아보았다. 추출실험은 채취된 오염토양을 통하여 행하여 졌는데, 추출실험재료로는 단지 토양시료, 증류수 그리고 고분자 자성체만이 사용되었다. pH가 중성인 이 조건에서 자성체는 토양에서 이동성이 있는 카드뮴만을 추출하게 되는데, 이런 토양의 유동성 카드뮴이 교반을 통하여 빠르게 고분자 자성체와 결합하는 것을 알아냈다. 그 후 자성체는 외부 자력으로 모아져 산으로 용해되고, 자성체에 결합되어 있던 카드뮴 다시 용출되어 Graphite furnace 원자흡광기 (AAS)로 분석되었다. 3가지 모래성토양의 추출실험결과를 보면 토양의 유동성 중금속 농도를 분석할 때 전형적으로 사용하는 EDTA (Ethylendiamintetraacetic acid)와 비교할 때, 고분자 자성체를 이용한 효율이 비슷하거나 더 높았음을 알 수 있었다. 이로서 모래성토양에서 유동성 중금속 농도를 분석할 때, 난분해성 물질인 EDTA등을 사용하지 않고 더 정확하고 간단히 유동성 카드뮴의 분석실험을 수행할 수 있음을 보여주었다.
