Underground structures show different behaviors depending upon the space and the mechanical characteristics of discontinuities, such as joints, beddings, faults and shear zone. Desingning the rock structeres without considering the significance of these discontinuities can lead to false conclusions. This paper includes study on the following topics; the numerical analysis of continuous rock and discontinuous rock around a tunnel, the influences on shotcrete moment and rock-bolt axial force of tunnel due to different joint orientation and stiffness.

An exponentially accurate nonconforming spectral element method for elasticity systems with discontinuities in the coefficients and the flux across the interface is proposed in this paper. The method is least-squares spectral element method. The jump in the flux across the interface is incorporated (in appropriate Sobolev norm) in the functional to be minimized. The interface is resolved exactly using blending elements. The solution is obtained by the preconditioned conjugate gradient method. The numerical solution for different examples with discontinuous coefficients and non-homogeneous jump in the flux across the interface are presented to show the efficiency of the proposed method.

The disappearance of continuous yielding and the formation of an extended region in engineering stress-strain curves at tempering temperatures of 673-873K is closely related to the reduction of mobile dislocations during tempering and dynamic recovery during tensile deformation. In addition, the occurrence of discontinuous yielding at tempering temperature above 923K would be attributed to the formation of new strain-free polygonal ferrite grain.

In this paper, we could find optimum quantum sequence(OQS) to minimize the output ripple voltage of the quantum series resonant converter(QSRC). This sequence control is so general that it is irrelevant to the voltage gain so far as it is operating in the continuous conduction mode(CCM). Further more the dynamic range of QSRC is much extended by the optimum quantum sequence control(OQSC). Througuout the time-domain analysis, the solution of steady state and the boundary condition between continuous and discontinuous mode is QSRC is obtained. This feature is verified by simulations and experiments with good agreements.

In this paper, we introduce a new sliding surface adaptable to arbitrary initial conditions. The surface is initially designed to pass given intial errors and subsequently moves towards a predetermined surface via rotating or/and shifting. We call it as a moving sliding surface (MSS) comparing with the conventional ones, for instances, employed by Slotine and Sastry. Using the MSS, it is shown that the tracking is much faster than conventional one without increasing the magnitude of discontinuous control gain. To demonstrate some advantages of the proposed method, we apply the MSS to the path tracking control of a two-degree-of-freedom robotic manipulator subjected to external disturbances.

This paper deals with the novel DPWM(discontinuous PWM) for 3-level inverter. Although DPWM methods generate higher harmonics than SVPWM they are of special interest because of their lower switching losses. And in the high modulation region the harmonic characteristics of DPWM is superior to the that of CPWM. However when DPWM applies to the 3-level inverter there is the problem that the output state is varied suddenly in the low modulation region($\textrm{m}_{I}$=0~0.5) The novel DPWM that this problem improves will be introduced.

This paper proposes PFC boost converter with soft switching for harmonics decrement and analyzes characteristics of PFC boost converter. In this technique power factor correction(PFC) is usually obtained by operating the PFC stage in the discontinuous current mode(DCM) Switching devices are operated for reducing current stress and electronical noise. As a result eliminate 3rd harmonic component and high power factor(PF) of the input line are verified by characteristics analysis and experimental results.

단방향 DC-DC컨버터는 불연속 전도모드(Discontinuous Conduction Mode:DCM)구간에서 전류기준치와 실제 흐르는 평균전류와의 오차가 존재하여 MPPT추종이 어렵거나 불가하다. 따라서 본 논문은 전류제어를 하는데 전류오차율을 2%까지 최소화할 수 있는 전류게인 전향보상기법을 이용하여 DCM 구간에서도 98%이상의 MPPT효율로 MPPT수행이 가능함을 실험으로 증명하였다.

This paper deals with the operation analysis of the half-bridge parallel-resonant converter with P.W.M. control. The converter operates at fixed frequency, in the continuous and discontinuous current mode. A simplified theorectical steady-state analysis is developed and the converter characteristics are presented.

A Simultaneous optimal design of structural and control system of a semi-active suspension is applied on a helf-car model in this paper. Suspension stiffnesses and dampings are selected as structural design parameters and damping forces of variable dampers as controller parameters. Sence this optimization problem is of large discontinuous space, conventional exhaustive methods are not enough. So we here try out an approach using Genetic Algorithm for our problem. Through numerical simulation work, the performance of the simultaneously optimized system was tested and showed meaningful improvement over the partially optimized ones.
