Resizing techniques have been recognized as practical methods for drift design of high-rise building since sensitivity analysis and iterative structural analysis are not required in implementation. In the techniques, the amount of material of a memberin a building for resizing is determined in terms of cross-sectional areas and sectional inertia moments as design variables. In this study, five drift design methods are developed by considering design variable linking strategy and fomulating resizing algorithm in terms of material properties of shear walls as a design variable. The developed methods are applied to the drift design of 20-story frame-RC shear wall structure, and then evaluated in the view points of practicality and efficiency.

Optimum design of mooring dolphin is numerically investigated. Design optimization problem of moring dolphin is first formulated. Geometry and cross sections of piles are used as design variables. Design objective is the total weight of steel piles of mooring dolphin, and the constraints of stress, penetration depth, lower and upper bounds on design variables are imposed. Based on the design variable linking and fixing, several class of design variations are sought. For the numerical optimization, both PLBA(Pshenichny - Lim - Belegundu - Arora) program and DNCONF subroutine code in IMSL library are used. For a dolphin structure with 20 steel piles, vertical and inclined, optimum designs for different cases are successfully obtained, which can be applied for the mooring of a very large floating structure.

In this study, an automated optimum design program for steel box girder bridges has been developed for the optimum design of composite steel box girder bridges. The design constraints required for the optimum design of steel box girder bridges are based on the Korean standard bridge specification. Considering characteristics of steel box girder bridges, several approximation techniques, such as artificial constraint deletion, variable linking and stress reanalysis technique etc. are also introduced to enhance the efficiency of optimization. The developed program is mainly composed of major sub-system modules including structural analysis module using commercial structural analysis program such as RM-SPACEFRAME, optimum design module, pre-process module for friendly user input, and post-processor module for office automation. In addition, in order to demonstrate the efficiency and applicability of the developed optimum design program for steel box girder bridges, a few numerical examples are applied. Based on the results of the application, it may be stated that the automatic optimum design program developed in this study can be a prototype model for the developement of optimum design program for other type of bridge.

In this paper, a practical procedure for the design optimization of tubular-steel-pile-type substructure in a mooring dolphin is investigated and numerically evaluated. In the finite-dimensional optimum design formulation, geometry and cross-sectional shapes of classified group of piles are identified as design variables. The design objective is the total weight of piles, and the design constraints on stresses, penetration depth, and size limits are imposed. Several classes of practical design alternatives are sought through the linking and fixing of design variables. Among the available numerical optimization codes, both PLBA program and DNCONF subroutine in IMSL library are used. They are based on SQP algorithm and relatively easy to get. A dolphin of numerical example has 20 tubular steel piles, 4 vertical and 16 inclined. Optimum designs for different cases are successfully obtained for the practical purpose.

Design-oriented approximate structural reanalysis models are compared and assessed, particularly with focus on the case of large changes of design variables. The effectiveness and reliability are demonstrated by means of numerical examples. The results of the study suggest the following conclusions relative to the potential of the procedures. (A) local approximation is only appropriate for the case of small changes in design : (B) global approximation is exact for the case of large changes in a small number of design variables, but inefficient : (C) local-global approximation is most effective and reliable for the case of large changes with a large number of design variables. These methods can improve the total efficiency when they are appropriately used to the design information for the redesign process of large scale structures.

Drift design methods using resizing algorithms have been presented as a practical drift design method since the resizing algorithms proposed easily find drift contribution of each member, called member displacement participation factor, to lateral drift to be designed without calculation of sensitivity coefficient or re-analysis. Weight of material to be redistributed for minimization of the lateral drift is determined according to the member displacement participation factors. However, resizing algorithms based on energy theorem must consider loading conditions because they have different displacement contribution according to different loading conditions. Furthermore, to improve practicality of resizing algorithms, structural member grouping is required in application of resizing algorithms to drift control of high-rise buildings. In this study, three resizing algorithms on considering load condition and structural member grouping are developed and applied to drift design of a 20-story steel-frame shear-wall structure and a 50-story frame shear-wall system with outriggers.

This paper describes the implementation of an internet-based servo-control system with novel direct internet control architecture which is insensitive to the inherent internet time delay. The servo control system can be controlled by using a PC provided at a local site. However, a large internet time delay may make some control inputs distorted. Moreover, since it is acted by the number of the internet nodes and loads, this delay is variable and unpredictable. This system consists of servo mechanism and Ethernet control adapter. Intention of this paper is to reduce the expenses, to manage effectively for plant and to increase the productivity through linking each plant of several factories by TCP/IP and Ethernet, and then many control plants and manager minimize the needed work. Experiments are partially fulfilled using the Labview and Matlab.

Purpose ESG(Environment Social Governance) activities of IT companies are very important for organizational development in that they can motivate employees to engage in job crafting by giving them a sense of purpose and meaning. There have been many studies on the positive impact of company ESG(Environment Social Governance) activities on financial performance, but unlike the existing financial performance approach, this study suggested that IT companies ESG activities can affect job crafting and job satisfaction of employee, using non-financial organizational variables. Design/methodology/approach This study, based on the related theoretical background, showed the relationship between ESG, job crafting, and job satisfaction, and it was proposed as a research model. A measurement model was constructed, and it was estimated and evaluated with LISREL 9.30, using data from IT companies employees, and it showed satisfactory data-fit of proposed model. The empirical results indicated that ESG(Environment Social Governance) take effect on job crafting, and job crafting take effect on job satisfaction. Findings This study provided several important implications in relation to the ESG(Environment Social Governance) that contribute to job crafting and job satisfaction for IT companies employees. It was confirmed that job crafting variable is a effective mediator linking ESG(Environment Social Governance) and job satisfaction.

The purpose of this study is to examine and understand decoding process of the Advertising - text to users a various aspects of semiotic approaches. Further more, through this study, show the sign- structures of the ad-text. For this purpose this study has chosen about the AD of publication of constant period that explore the variable characteristics, access the audience's meaning - structures. Through this analysis , grasp the point of internal and external linked structures. The results of this study can be summarized as follows; ㆍ The AD were applied using the transformational signifier of sign-system rather than the reflection of life's quality and products itself. Moreover to show itself meaning, the ad should do selection of transformation of thought than information-oriented. ㆍ The AD-text can be produced its productive efforts as well as decoding process of audience through various linked channel. Association, structured linking, audience's decoding, thematic structures are very important points in order to read the AD.
