In this study, two geometrically identical multi-storey steel buildings with different lateral load resisting systems are structurally analyzed under same earthquake conditions and they are compared with respect to their construction costs of their structural systems. One of the systems is a steel structure with eccentrically steel braced frames. The other one is a RC wall-steel frame system, that is a steel framed structure in combination with a reinforced concrete core and shear walls of minimum thickness that the national code allows. As earthquake resisting systems, steel braced frames and reinforced concrete shear walls, for both cases are located on identical places in either building. Floors of both buildings will be of reinforced concrete slabs of same thickness resting on composite beams. The façades are assumed to be covered identically with light-weight aluminum cladding with insulation. Purpose of use for both buildings is an office building of eight stories. When two systems are structurally analyzed by FEM (finite element method) and dimensionally compared, the dual one comes up with almost 34% less cost of construction with respect to their structural systems. This in turn means that, by using a dual system in earthquake zones such as Turkey, for multi-storey steel buildings with RC floors, more economical solutions can be achieved. In addition, slender steel columns and beams will add to that and consequently more space in rooms is achieved.

Normally, the single wall(SW) corrugated board has more advantages than double wall (DW) corrugated board in terms of the cost of the materials and logistics. For instance, the SW corrugated board has 3 layer papers whereas the DW corrugated board has 5 layer papers. The thickness of the SW is about 5mm, but that of the DW is 8mm. Accordingly, the SW corrugated board is quite more used in the developed countries than the DW corrugated board. But in Korea, the DW corrugated board is quite more used. The reason why more DW corrugated board are used than the SW corrugated in Korea is that in order that the SW corrugated board has the same box compression strength as DW corrugated board, the cost of the SW corrugated board is higher than that of the DW corrugated board because the virgin kraft liners are all imported from overseas. In this study, the physical properties such as flat crush strength and column crush strength of typical SW corrugated board and single wall dual-layer medium corrugated board and their costs were analyzed. The analysis resulted in that single wall dual-layer medium corrugated board has the same thickness as the SW corrugated board but the more flat crush strength and column crush strength and the less cost than the SW corrugated board.

Dichroic beam-splitter (DBS) with polarization-maintaining took an important role in the free space quantum telecommunication tests on the Micius satellite of China. In this presentation, we designed and prepared a 50 layer polarization-maintaining DBS coating by a dual ion beam sputtering deposition (Dual-IBS) method. In order to solve a stress problem, an 18 layer special anti-reflection (AR) coating with similar physical thickness ratio was deposited on the backside. By stress compensation, the surface flatness RMS value of the DBS sample decreased from 0.341 λ (@632.8 nm) to 0.103 λ while beam splitting and polarization maintaining properties were almost kept unchanged. Further, we discussed the mechanism of film stress and stress compensation by equation deduction and found that total stress had a strong relationship with the total physical thickness and the ratio of layer materials.

In this paper, we present a 20 GHz low-loss dual-mode channel filter designed by using mode matching method. The performance of dual-mode channel filter mainly depends on iris characteristics. Therefore the exact design of iris is the key point to get good frequncy response of the filter. MOde matching technique is widely used ot design several kinds of waveguide filters because it is simple in theory and can easily calculate the scattering matrices at the discontinuities with simple structure like iris coupled filters. Additionally the effect for finite thickness of the iris in the dual-mode cavity iflter is analyzed by te full-wave method, providing the exact filter implementation without trial and error.

This paper mainly focuses and describes four-armed dual-band rectangular type patch antenna using teflon of 0.54 mm thickness substrate for the application in personal wireless communications at about 2 GHz and 2.5 GHz frequency ranges. The dual-band patch antenna is obtained by embedding one centered and two pairs of rectangular patches on single body above the substrate. Details of the proposed antenna design are presented and discussed as a novel design with remarkable value of return loss (S11) of -28.68 dB and it is the most suitable for WiMAX applications as well.

A replica-molding method of fabricating a dual-gap substrate for transflective liquid crystal (LC) displays is demonstrated. The dual-gap substrate provides homeotropic alignment for the LC molecules without any surface treatment and embedded bilevel microstructure on one of the two surfaces to maintain different cell gaps between the transmissive and reflective subpixels. The proposed transflective LC cell shows no electro-optic disparity between two subpixels and reduces the panel thickness and weight by 30% compared to the conventional transflective LC cell, which has two glass substrates.

This paper presents a simple and effective method for improving stopband rejection characteristics of previously studied dual-band filters. Small electric couplings were applied to the symmetrically positioned shunt resonators, which divided each transmission zero into two transmission zeros without any effect on passbands. We were able to achieve improved stopband rejection characteristics by these additional transmission zeros. For the filter application, we designed a dual-band filter with improved stopband characteristics using microstrip quasi-lumped elements. The electric couplings that control the location of transmission zeros are controlled by the distance between symmetric open stubs of the filter. The filter was fabricated with a relative dielectric constant of 3.5 and a thickness of 0.76 mm. The fabricated filter has a small size ($14.6{\times}13.2{\times}0.76$ mm) and a low insertion loss when compared with conventional filters.

Portable sheet resistance-measuring instrument using the dual-configuration Four-Point Probe method is developed for the purpose of precisely measuring the sheet resistance of conducting thin films. While single-configuration Four-Point Probe method has disadvantages of applying sample size, shape and thickness corrections for a probe spacing, the developed instrument has advantages of no such corrections, little edge effects and measuring simply and accurately the sheet resistance between $0.2\Omega/sq$ and $2k\Omega/sq$.

The efficiency of CMOS technology has been developed in uniform rate. However, there was a limitation of reducing the thickness of Gate-oxide since the thickness of Gate Dielectric is also reduced so an amount of leakage current is grow. In order to solve this problem, the semiconductor device which has a dual gate is used widely. This paper presents a method and a necessity for making the Gate Stack of TFT. Before Using test devices to measure values, stacking $SiN_x$ on a wafer test was conducted.

For the precise analysis of high velocity impact problem though FEM with element erosive method, the adequate mesh size and critical equivalent plastic strain(EQPS) is chosen prior to the simulation. In this research, it is strongly required from a standpoint that critical EQPS is used to decide whether perforation occurs or not. The optimization of dual armor plate consisting of 4340 steel and 2024 aluminium against a die steel sphere with high-velocity has been suggested using Lagrangian explicit time-integration code, NET2D. The response surface method based on the design of experiment is utilized for the size optimization. The optimized thickness of each layer, in which perforation does not occur, the strength of multi-layer is maximized and total weight is minimized, is obtained at a constant velocity of a pellet with a designated total thickness.
