The external, unbonded prestressed concrete(PSC) members exhibit very different structural behavior from that of internal bonded PSC members because of eccentricity change and slip occurrence during loading process. The purpose of the present study is to propose the ultimate failure stresses of prestressing (PS) steels for those external unbonded PSC members. To this end, a comprehensive analysis has been made using the nonlinear finite element analysis program developed recently for external unbonded PSC members by authors. A series of major influencing variables have been included in the analysis. It was found that the span-depth ratio, neutral axis depth-effective depth ratio, load geometry, amount of ordinary steel, and prestressing steel ration have great influence for the ultimate failue stress of PS steel is preposed and is compared with experimental dat as well as existing formulas for internal unbonded members. The Comparison indicates that the proposed equation agrees relatively well with experimental data and that existing formulas including ACI and AASHTO equations show some discrepancies from experimental ones. The present study allows more realistic analysis and design of prestressed concrete structures with external unbonded tendons.

This paper aims to examine the behavior of slender reinforced concrete columns confined with external glass fiber reinforced polymers (GFRP) sheets under eccentric loads. The experimental work conducted in this paper is an extension to previous work by the author concerning the behavior of eccentrically loaded short columns strengthened with GFRP wrapping. In this study, nine reinforced concrete columns divided into three groups were casted and tested. Three eccentricity ratios corresponding to e/t = 0, 0.10, and 0.50 in one direction of the column were tested in each group. The first group was the control one without confinement with slenderness ratio equal 20. The second group was the same as the first group but fully wrapped with one layer of GFRP laminates. The third group was also fully wrapped with one layer of GFRP laminates but having slenderness ratio equal 15. The experimental results of another two groups from the previous work were used in this study to investigate the difference between short and slender columns. The first was control one with slenderness ratio equal 10 and the second was fully wrapped and having the same slenderness ratio. All specimens were loaded until failure. The ultimate load, axial deformation, strain in steel bars, and failure mechanisms of each specimen were generated and analyzed. The results show that GFRP laminates confining system is less effective with slender columns compared with short one, but this solution is still applied and it can be efficiently utilized especially for slender columns with low eccentric ratio.

The purpose of this study is to find out the changes in geomorphic characteristics of a small watershed when a golf course is constructed. The research site is a set of seven small watersheds including an 18-hole golf course that were randomly selected. The size, shape, and drainage network of watersheds were measured by using planimeter, watershed eccentricity, and stream order, respectively. In addition, a 25m$\times$25m mesh was used on topographic maps and grading plans in order to obtain the slope, elevation, and aspect of the watersheds. The major results of this research, while investigating of the changes in geomorphic characteristics of watersheds when a golf course is constructed, are as follows: 1. The size of watersheds is increased in accordance to the difference in elevation between the golf course site and the small watershed. 2. The watershed eccentricities are in general similar except for a few low-valued cases. 3. The changes in the average altitude and the gradient are more drastic with their bigger original values. 4. The aspects are changed more with decreasing elevation. 5. The stream order decreases in the case of a low watershed eccentricity. 6. The surface modification has a closer relationship to the slope rather than the size of effective use area. 7. With a steeper gradient and an excessively low gradient, the height of cutting/filling is increased.

This study focuses on demonstrating the effectiveness of vibration control of tuned rotary mass damper (TRMD) for reducing the bidirectional and torsional response of the irregular asymmetric structure with voided slabs under earthquake excitations. The TRMD arranged in plane of one-story eccentric structure is proposed as a distributed tuned rotary mass damper (DTRMD) system. Lagrange's equation is used to derive the equations of motion of the controlled system. The optimum position and number of TRMD are numerically investigated under harmonic excitation and the control effects of different distributions are discussed. Furthermore, a shaking table test is conducted under different excitation cases, including free vibration, forced vibration and seismic wave to investigate the absorption performance of the device. The numerical simulations of different distributions of the TRMDs show that the DTRMDs are more effective in reduction of the displacement response of the asymmetric structure under the same mass ratio, even when the degree of eccentricity becomes large. However, with small degree of eccentricity, the unreasonable asymmetrical arrangement may cause the increase of the peak value of the rotational angular displacement. Finally, the experimental investigations exhibit similar results of translational displacement of the structure. It is concluded that the vibration of the irregular asymmetric structure can be controlled more economically and effectively by reducing the mass ratio through reducing the quantity of TRMDs at the high stiffness end.

Design criteria, modeling rules, and analysis principles of seismic isolation systems have already found place in important building codes and standards such as the Uniform Building Code and ASCE/SEI 7-05. Although real behaviors of isolation systems composed of high damping or lead rubber bearings are nonlinear, equivalent linear models can be obtained using effective stiffness and damping which makes use of linear seismic analysis methods for seismic-isolated buildings possible. However, equivalent linear modeling and analysis may lead to errors in seismic response terms of multi-story buildings and thus need to be assessed comprehensively. This study investigates the accuracy of equivalent linear modeling via numerical experiments conducted on generic five-story three dimensional seismic-isolated buildings. A wide range of nonlinear isolation systems with different characteristics and their equivalent linear counterparts are subjected to historical earthquakes and isolation system displacements, top floor accelerations, story drifts, base shears, and torsional base moments are compared. Relations between the accuracy of the estimates of peak structural responses from equivalent linear models and typical characteristics of nonlinear isolation systems including effective period, rigid-body mode period, effective viscous damping ratio, and post-yield to pre-yield stiffness ratio are established. Influence of biaxial interaction and plan eccentricity are also examined.

제트엔진 변조(Jet Engine Modulation: JEM)는 회전하는 제트엔진 터빈으로부터의 전자기 산란에 따른 레이더 신호의 주파수 변조 현상이다. JEM은 표적의 고유한 정보를 제공하여 대표적인 레이더 표적 인식 수단으로 활용되나, JEM 성분이 미약하게 존재하는 레이더 관측 범위에서는 JEM에 의한 레이더 표적 인식 성능이 저하될 수 있다. 이에 본 논문에서는 복소 신호의 경험적인 모드분리법(Complex Empirical Mode Decomposition: CEMD)를 이용하여 레이더 신호를 여러 기본성분인 고유 모드 함수(Intrinsic Mode Function: IMF)로 분리하고, 신호의 이심률을 기반으로 이들 IMF를 조합하는 근거를 제공하여 JEM 성분을 추출하는 기법을 제시한다. 다양한 신호에 대한 적용 결과를 통하여 제안된 기법이 JEM의 명확성을 개선하는 한편, JEM 해석의 유효 관측 범위를 확장시킬 수 있음을 입증하였다.

국제해사기구(IMO) 2020 규정에 의해, 2020년 1월부터 지정된 배출규제해역 밖을 운항하는 선박도 황 함유량이 0.5% 이하인 저유황유를 사용하여야한다. 고가의 저유황유 소비를 최소화하기 위해 에너지저감 장치의 도입이 시급하며, 그 중에서도 상반회전 프로펠러 시스템이 가장 효과적이라고 알려져 있다. 상반회전 프로펠러를 구동하는 축계는 내축과 외축으로 구성되고 상호 영향을 주는 시스템으로 하나의 축으로 이루어진 일반 축계 시스템보다 훨씬 복잡하며 무거운 구조이다. 국내에서는 처음으로 상반회전 프로펠러 축계 시스템을 장착하기 위해 37K 정유운반선 용 상반회전 프로펠러 축계의 초기 설계가 진행되었다. 본연구의 목적은 초기 설계의 선급승인을 위해 베어링 반력해석을 수행하여, 저널 베어링이 선급에서 요구하는 설계기준을 만족하는지를 검증하는 것이다. 프로펠러의 추력은 축 중심에 작용하는 것이 이상적이지만, 선미부 선체 형상에 의해 발생하는 불균일한 반류 등의 영향으로 추력 편심이 발생한다. 본 연구에서는 추력 편심을 반영한 하중조건을 적용하여 축계해석을 수행하였고, 그 결과를 선급 요구 설계기준과 비교하였다.

This study evaluates the reliability of present European codes in predicting the collapse load of columns made with perforated cold-formed steel (CFS) profiles under combined axial load and bending. To this aim, a series of experimental tests on slender open-section specimens have been performed at varying load eccentricity. Preliminarily, stub column tests have also been performed to calculate the effective section properties of the investigated profile. By comparison of experimental data with code-specified M-N strength domains, the authors demonstrate that present code formulations may underestimate the collapse load of thin-walled perforated open sections. The study is the first step of a wider experimental and numerical study aimed at better describing strength domains of perforated CFS open sections.

ATM(automated teller machine) is a machine which can deposit and withdraw money directly. For effective transfer of bills in the machine, crown belts are used. In this paper, the transverse vibration of crown belt is investigated. The equation of motion of the belt is derived using Lagrange's equation. Galerkin's method is applied to convert the partial differential equation to the ordinary differential equations. Experimental investigations are performed on the belt system with the variation of pulley type, eccentricity, and tension. The results of numerical analysis show in good agreement with the experimental results.
