There is a great difference in mechanical behavior between design model one-time loading and step-by-step construction process. This paper presents practical computational methods for simulating the structural behavior of long-span rigid steel structures during construction processes. It introduces the positioning principle of node rectification for installation which is especially suitable for rigid long-span steel structures. Novel improved nonlinear analytical methods, known as element birth and death of node rectification, are introduced based on several calculating methods, as well as a forward iteration of node rectification method. These methods proposed in this paper can solve the problem of element's 'floating' and can be easily incorporated in commercial finite element software. These proposed methods were eventually implemented in the computer simulation and analysis of the main stadium for the Universiade Sports Center during the construction process. The optimum construction scheme of the structure is determined by the improved algorithm and the computational results matched well with the measured values in the project, thus indicating that the novel nonlinear time-varying analysis approach is effective construction simulation of complex rigid long-span steel structures and provides useful reference for future design and construction.

This paper presents the robot vision control schemes based on the Newton-Raphson (N-R) and the Extended Kalman Filter (EKF) methods for the tracking of moving targets. The vision system model used in this study involves the six camera parameters. The difference is that refers to the uncertainty of the camera's orientation and focal length, and refers to the unknown relative position between the camera and the robot. Both N-R and EKF methods are employed towards the estimation of the six camera parameters. Based on the these six parameters estimated using three cameras, the robot's joint angles are computed with respect to the moving targets, using both N-R and EKF methods. The two robot vision control schemes are tested by tracking the moving target experimentally. Given the experimental results, the two robot control schemes are compared in order to evaluate their strengths and weaknesses.

EVRC (Enhanced Variable Rate Codec) has been adopted as a standard coder for the CDMA digital cellular system in North America and Korea, and known to provide good call quality at 8kbps. In this paper, fast implementation algorithms for EVRC encoder are proposed. The proposed algorithms are based on both efficient pitch detection scheme and fast fixed codebook search algorithm. In the codebook search, computational complexity is reduced down to 70％ of the original EVRC by limiting the number of pulse position combination and by using a truncated impulse response. The proposed algorithms enable us to implement the EVRC with much smaller computational works. Also, informal subjective tests confirmed that the difference in the speech quality between the original EVRC and the proposed method was indistinguishable.

This study summarizes the numerical analyses of a Ti alloy deformation under a back extrusion process. Amongst metallic parts in a small propulsion motor case, a Ti-6Al-4V alloy is used extensively. However, the Ti alloy shows a great deal of shear band formation which often leads to a fracture due to a narrow working temperature window. Moreover, the shear band tends to develop over an area where a contact occurs between the hot work piece and the die wall, due to localized cooling. Thus, heating the dies is often required to overcome the deformation localization. Therefore, it becomes necessary to investigate the internal temperature and strain rate distribution during forging process of a Ti alloy. Furthermore, a shear band analysis is peformed using a finite difference scheme and a comparison is made between steel and Ti alloy.

B$\Phi$rrensen proposed a coarse mesh, three-dimensional one-and-half group diffusion scheme for computing the gross power distribution in light water reactors as an alternative to the conventional fine mesh finite difference approach in dealing with three dimensional problems, which require a prohibitively long computing time. The method reported takes extremely small execution time. However, its computational accuracy has not been investigated yet. The B$\Phi$rrensen method is revised in this work and both efficiency and accuracy are examined by applying it to IAEA benchmark problem and RIS$\Phi$ benchmark problem. It is found that two modifications on core-reflector boundary conditions and B$\Phi$rrensen's model constants may improve computational accuracy of power distribution calculation.

To investigate the run-up heights of nearshore tsunamis in the vicinity of a circular island, a numerical model has been developed based on quadtree grids. The governing equations of the model are the nonlinear shallow-water equations. The governing equations are discretized explicitly by using a finite difference leap-frog scheme on adaptive hierarchical quadtree grids. The quadtree grids are generated around a circular island where refined with rectangular or circular domain. Obtained numerical results have been verified by comparing to available laboratory measurements. A good agreement has been achieved.

The paper presents a comparison between a semi-implicit time integration linear finite element implementation and fully-implicit nonlinear Newton-Raphson finite element implementation of a triphasic small strain mixture formulation of an elastic partially saturated porous medium. The pore air phase pressure pa is assumed atmospheric, i.e., $p_a$ = 0, although the formulation and implementation are general to handle increase in pore air pressure as a result of loading, if needed. The solid skeleton phase is assumed linear isotropic elastic and partially saturated 'consolidation' in the presence of surface infiltration and traction is simulated. The verification of the implementation against an analytical solution for partially saturated pore water flow (no deformation) and comparison between the two implementations is presented and the important of the porosity-dependent nature of the partially saturated permeability is assessed on comparison with a commercial code for the partially saturated flow with deformation. As a result, the response of partially saturated permeability subjected to the porosity influences on the saturation of a soil, and the different behaviors of the partially saturated soil between staggered and monolithic coupled programs is worth of attention because the negative pore water pressure in the partially saturated soil depends on the difference.

Destruction appraisal system improved with the enactment of the 1999 Public Records Management Act has the strategic concepts to prevent loss of important records with prohibiting the destruction in creation organization of records. But destruction appraisal carried out in record center realistically has the big difference with destruction appraisal system intended by Public Records Management Act. Therefore this article intends to explore the importance of destruction appraisal system through a review of the record appraisal system, and investigates operation status of destruction appraisal system in record center and operational issues. And it intends to explore scheme for practical application of destruction appraisal system based on actual cases of destruction appraisal which operates as a model.

In this research, the density value of the turbid solution is measured by using the principle of inexpensive but easy Hydrometer method for cement delivered to the actual raw concrete plant, By analyzing the correlation of powder aid, we will try to present a scheme that can be utilized as a method of acquisition acquisition inspection. As a result of the analysis, it was found that there was a large difference between the measured powders assisted with cement powder on the report, and the correlation with the actually measured powder aid Hydrometer density value was good. Therefore, using the method of Fig. 3, it was possible to know that the degree of powder quality of cement delivered to the raw concrete factory can be evaluated quickly and utilized at the time of argument inspection.
