Under lateral loads Framed Tube (FT) system exhibits reduction of cantilever efficiency due to the effect of shear lag. Braced Tube (BT) represents a valuable solution to overcome shear lag problems by stiffening the exterior frame with diagonal braced members. This study investigates the effect of shear lag on BT and FT under wind load. Shear lag and top-level displacement results are compared with previous findings by researchers on FT and BT systems. The investigation of the effect of various configurations in BT on the reduction the shear lag is another objective of this study. The efficiency of each structure is evaluated using the linear response spectrum analysis to obtain shear lag. STADD Pro software is used to run the dynamic analysis of the models. Results show there is relatively less shear lag in all the BT configurations compared to the FT structural system. Moreover, the comparison of the obtained result with those derived by previous studies shows that shear lag is not proportional to lateral displacement. With respect to results, optimum BT configuration in term of lower shear lag caused by lateral loads is presented.

Brain potential is described by using Euler Lagrange equation derived from Lagrangian based on SMNI(Statistical Mechanics of Neocortical Interaction). It is assumed that excitatory neuron firing is amplitude-modulated dominantly by the sum of two modes of frequency ${\omega}and 2 {\omega}$ . Time series of this neuron firing is numerically calculated. $I_{L}$related to low frequency distribution of power spectrum, $I_{H}$high frequency, and S(standard deviation) are introduced for the effective extraction of the dynamic property in this simulated brain potential. $I_{L}$,$I_{H}$, and S are obtained from EEG of 4 persons in rest state and are compared with thoretical results. It is of importance in various fields related to human well-being such as comfort-pursued industrial design, psychology, medicine to characterize human emotional states by EEG analysis. The pleasant and unpleasant sensation among various emotional states would be demonstrated to be determined in terms of ${\epsilon}$ and ${\gamma}$ parameters estimated by the simulated $I_{L}$-$I_{H}$-S relations.

In view of the fact that gas insulated switchgear (GIS) is an important piece of equipment in a substation, it is highly desirable to continuously monitor the state of equipment by measuring the partial discharge (PD) activity in a GIS, as PD is a symptom of an insulation weakness/breakdown. However, since the PD signal is relatively weak and the external noise makes detection of the PD signal difficult, it therefore requires careful attention in its detection. In this paper, the algorithm for detection of PD in the GIS using the wavelet transform (WT) is proposed. The WT provides a direct quantitative measure of the spectral content and dynamic spectrum in the time-frequency domain. The most appropriate mother wavelet for this application is the Daubechies 4 (db4) wavelet. 'db4', the most commonly applied mother wavelet in the power quality analysis, is very well suited to detecting high frequency signals of very short duration, such as those associated with the PD phenomenon. The proposed algorithm is based on utilizing the absolute sum value of coefficients, which are a combination of D1 (Detail 1) and D2 (Detail 2) in multiresolution signal decomposition (MSD) based on WT after noise elimination and normalization.

피로시험은 구조설계에 있어서 필수적인 과정으로서, 구조물의 요구수명 만족여부를 판단하기 위해 수행된다. 본 연구에서는 750㎾급 수평축 풍력발전 시스템용 복합재 회전날개가 요구수명 20년이상 안전하게 운용되어질 수 있는지에 대한 검토를 수행하였다. tan Bond의 실험식과 S-N선형 손상 방법을 사용하여 요구 피로강도를 계산하였으며, 설계된 복합재 회전날개의 유한요소 해석 결과와 비교하기 위해 측정하중 스펙트럼과 Spera의 피로하중 실험식을 이용하여 회전날개에 적용시킬 피로하중을 계산하였다. 계산된 피로하중에 대한 유한요소 해석을 수행하여 검토한 결과, fan Bond의 실험식을 이용하여 예측한 최대 요구 피로강도보다 낮은 범위에 있음을 확인하였다.

The design basis is being shifted from strength to deformation in modern performance-based design codes. This paper presents a practical method for optimization of eccentrically braced steel frames, based on the concept of uniform deformation theory (UDT). This is done by gradually shifting inefficient material from strong parts of the structure to the weak areas until a state of uniform deformation is achieved. In the first part of this paper, UDT is implemented on 3, 5 and 10 story eccentrically braced frames (EBF) subjected to 12 earthquake records representing the design spectrum of ASCE/SEI 7-10. Subsequently, the optimum strength-distribution patterns corresponding to these excitations are determined, and compared with four other loading patterns. Since the optimized frames have uniform distribution of deformation, they undergo less damage in comparison with code-based designed structures while having minimum structural weight. For further investigation, the 10 story EBF is redesigned using four different loading patterns and subjected to 12 earthquake excitations. Then a comparison is made between link rotations of each model and those belonging to the optimized one which revealed that the optimized EBF behaves generally better than those designed by other loading patterns. Finally, efficiency of each loading pattern is evaluated and the best one is determined.

SUMOylation has emerged as an important post-translational modification that modulates the localization, stability and activity of a broad spectrum of proteins. A dynamic process, it can be reversed by a family of SUMO-specific proteases (SENPs). However, the biological roles of SENPs in mammalian development and pathogenesis remain largely elusive. Here, we demonstrated that SENP2 plays a critical role in the control of hepatocellular carcinoma cell growth. SENP2 was found to be down-regulated in hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) tissues and over-expression suppressed the growth and colony formation of HCC cells. In contrast, silencing of SENP2 by siRNAs promoted cancer cell growth. We further found that stability of ${\beta}$-catenin was markedly decreased when SENP2 was over-expressed. Interestingly, the decrease was dependent on the de-SUMOylation activity of SENP2, because over-expression of a SENP2 catalytic mutant form had no obviously effects on ${\beta}$-catenin. Our results suggest that SENP2 might play a role in hepatocellular carcinoma cell growth control by modulating the stability of ${\beta}$-catenin.

Spin dynamics has been investigated intensively in various kinds of fields. Most popular one is an initial permeability at high frequency. Also, magnetic after-effect such as thermal fluctuation of fine magnetic particles and disaccommodation in soft magnetic materials were extensively studied in the past. When we apply an external farce with the same frequency as that of the system being examined, the system absorbs the external energy and the precession enhances. It is called resonance in general. Among the various resonances, ferromagnetic resonance (FMR) has been used as a good tool to evaluate material constants such as saturation manetization or spin damping parameter by analyzing a resonance curve. In this talk first instinctive understanding of Gilbert spin damping and spin pumping will be explained. Then, experimental data for enhancement of Gilbert damping parameter (G) evaluated from FMR spectrum and spin precession measured by a time resolved pump-probe method for Permalloy thin film will be introduced. Finally, magnetization reversal observed by air-coplanar probe will be given.

RM 음성 Corpus를 이용한 화자 적응 연속 음성 인식을 수행하였다. RM Corpus의 훈련용 데이터를 이용해서 기준화자에 대한 HMM 학습을 실시하고 평가용 데이터를 이용하여 화자 적응 인식에 대한 평가를 실시하였다. 화자 적응을 위해서는 훈련용 데이터의 일부가 사용되었다. DTW를 이용하여 인식 대상화자의 데이터를 기준화자의 데이터와 시간적으로 일치시키고 오차 역전파 신경회로망을 사용하여 인식 대상화자의 스펙트럼이 기준화자의 스펙트럼 특성을 지니도록 변환시켰다. 최적의 화자 적응이 이루어지도록 하기 위해 신경회로망의 여러 요소들을 변화시키면서 실험을 실시하고 그 결과를 제시하였다. 학습을 거쳐 적절한 가중치를 지닌 신경회로망을 이용하여 기준화자에 적응시킨 결과 단어 인식율이 최대 2.1배, 단어 정인식율이 최대 4.7배 증가하였다.

GPS 신호체계는 대역확산 방식을 사용하며, 신호의 크기는 시스템 잡음수준 이하이므로 외부 전파 간섭신호에 매우 취약하며, 이는 GPS를 이용하는 선박 또는 항공기 에 대한 안전 운항을 제한 할 수 있다. 본 논문은 이러한 GPS 간섭 신호 제거를 위한 K-median 방식의 문턱치 설정 방식을 적용한 주파수 영역의 신호 처리 기법을 제안하며, 이는 기존에 보편적으로 사용되는 시간 영역에서의 간섭신호 제거 방식보다, 시간에 따른 신호 변화가 큰 간섭신호를 인가한 조건에 대해서 상대적으로 우수한 성능을 가짐을 확인하였다.
