This paper presents the design, fabrication and characterization of a 32 by 32 electroplated micromirror array on a glass, a low cost substrate. Approaches taken in this work for the fabrication of micromachined mirror arrays include a line addressing scheme, a seamless array design for high fill factor, planarization techniques of polymeric interlayers, a high yield methodology for the removal of sacrificial polymeric interlayers, and low temperature and chemically safe fabrication techniques. The micromirror is fabricated by aluminum and the size of a single micromirror is 200 $\mu\textrm{m}{\;}{\times}200{\;}\mu\textrm{m}$. Static deflection test of the micro-mirror has been carried out and pull-in voltage of 44V and releasing voltage of 30V was found.

Recently, square hollow section (S.H.S) is frequently used for column and H-section for beam of steel building structures. The connection between S.H.S column and H-beam is found to weaken the rotational restraint of the joint. Several types of detail to overcome the problem have been suggested for the connection between concrete filled S.H.S column and concrete composited H-bean In this paper, modelling technique to monitor the behavior of the connections is proposed. Then, Drucker-Prager yield criteria is introduced to simulate yield behavior of in-fill concrete while Von-Mises was used in earlier works. Gap-elements are also introduced to simulate the interaction between S.H.S columns and the in-fill concrete as in privious papers. axial forces are applied to S.H.S columns and made to vary in intensity and eccentricity.

Ship structures are basically an assembly of plate elements and the load-carrying capacity or the ultimate strength is one of the most important criteria for safety assessment and economic design. Also, Structural elements making up ship plated structures do not work separately, resulting in high degree of redundancy and complexity, in contrast to those of steel framed structures. To enable the behavior of such structures to be analyzed, simplifications or idealizations must essentially be made considering the accuracy needed and the degree of complexity of the analysis to be used. On this study, to investigate effect of analysis range, the finite element method are used and their results are compared varying the analysis ranges. The model has been selected from bottom panels of large merchant ship structures. For FEA, three types of structural modeling are adopted in terms of the extent of the analysis. The purpose of the present study is to numerically calculate the characteristics of ultimate strength behavior according to the analysis ranges of stiffened panels subject to uniaxial compressive loads.

The purpose of this paper is to experimentally identify the finite element (FE) model of a building structure with magnetorheological (MR) fluid damper. Using FE model based system identification (FEBSI) technique, The model of MR damper having nonlinear characteristics is expressed with equivalent linear properties such as mass, stiffness, and damping. Bingham model is used for MR damper modeling. The equivalent stiffness and damping matrices of MR damper are predicted by applying an equivalent linearization technique, and those values are compared with the experimentally obtained ones.

A thermo-elastic system in the production machine has highly nonlinear dynamic characteristics. In general, the finite element method is utilized for accurate analysis. However, it requires large computing time. Thus, thermo-elastic systems are usuallymodeled as electric and fluid system using lumped para,eter. In this paper. we propose the bondgraph model and transient simulation methodology of thermo-elastic system in consideration of various boundary and joint contact conditions. Consequently, the proposed method ensures a possibility of its on-line compensation about undesirable phenomena by using real time estimate process and electronic cooling device for thermal appropriate behavior. Thermo-elastic model consisting of bush and shaft including contact condition is presented.

The heat transfer characteristics between die and sheet and die and coolant are important parameters in hot press forming process. The determination of the quenching time that guarantees full martensitic transformation requires proper understanding of these heat transfer characteristics. The contact area changes drastically during the quenching process due to volume changes of both die and sheet by temperature drop as well as phase transformation. Several types of modeling techniques are tested in order to select the most suitable. The effect of quenching time as well as die heat conductivity on martensitic transformation is investigated and predictions are compared to experimental results.

A dynamic constitutive damage model for reinforced concrete (RC) structures and formulations of blast loading for contact or near-contact charges are considered and adapted from literatures. The model and the formulations are applied to the input parameters needed in commercial finite element method (FEM) codes which is validated by the laboratory blast tests of RC slabs from literature. The results indicate that the dynamic constitutive damage model based on the damage mechanics and the blast loading formulations work well. The framework on the dynamic constitutive damage model and the blast loading equations can therefore be used for the simulation of failure of bridge components in engineering applications.

With the wide use of mobile phones, a paging signal by a sound transducer acts as an environmental noise on many occasions, thus necessitating an alternative paging signal by a vibration motor. Conventional vibration motors employ three-phase windings with mechanical brushes for commutation. In this paper, a new one-phase brushless and sensorless vibration motor is introduced utilizing digital signal processor chips in cell-phones. For electromagnetic field analysis, two-dimensional modeling can be implemented to determine the back electromotive force using axisymmetric boundary conditions. Geometric design parameters, such as coil pitch and magnet pitch. are considered for performance optimization. Through the experiments, it is shown that the proposed design has the equivalent performance with reduced number of parts, thus enhancing manufacturing productivity and reducing manufacturing cost.

The transmission load of gear devices is important factor in the design of gear system. To design gear system precisely, an analysis and calculation methods for transmission load of gears are demanded. The purpose of this study is to develop a computer program for analyzing tooth load sharing of a spur gear system by means of the contact theory. In this paper, load transmission characteristics is identified with elastic contact problem which is assumed to quasi-static equilibrium. The modeling of spur gear tooth is accomplished by application of I-DEAS.

강수량 변동에 따른 사면 내의 지하수유동과 사면의 안정성 변화를 동시에 분석.평가하기 위하여 하나의 완전 연동된 수리지질역학적 모델을 제시하였다. 이 모델은 변형성 지질매체 내에서의 지하수유동을 설명하는 일련의 지배식들과 Galerkin 유한요소법에 기초하여 개발되었다. 1990년부터 1999년까지의 서울지역의 건기 (1월) 및 우기 (8월) 강수량 하에 있는 토양 사면에 대해 개발된 모델을 적용하여 일련의 수치실험을 실시하였다. 수치실험의 결과는 강수량이 증가함에 따라 사면의 수리역학적 안정성이 전반적으로 악화됨을 보여준다. 즉 강수량이 증가할수록 공극수압이 증가하고 지하수면이 상승한다. 그 결과 불포화대가 축소되고 삼출면이 팽창되며 사면의 전단부를 따라 지하수유동속도가 증가하게 된다. 동시에 강수량이 증가할수록 사면 전단부를 향해 전반적인 변위량이 증가한다. 그 결과 안전율이 1 이하인 불안전한 지역이 사면 전단부에서 사면 상부 쪽으로 전파.팽창되며 그 두께도 증가한다. 수치실험의 결과는 또한 사면의 표면에서는 전단파괴와 더불어 인장파괴도 발생할 수 있음을 보여준다.
