This study aims to monitor the variation of modal frequencies of steel buildings during their construction sequence. In this respect, construction of a steel building is followed by vibration based measurements. The monitored building is a three-story educational building within a building group whose structural system consists of steel moment resisting steel frames and eccentric braces. Five different acceleration measurements in two perpendicular directions are taken on five different construction stages, starting from the erection of the columns and beams ending with the completion of the construction. The recorded measurements are transferred into frequency domain and the dominant frequencies for each case have been determined. The change in the dominant frequencies is evaluated with the existing construction stages and performed constructional works between the stages. The last measurement, performed on the building in service, revealed the first two dominant frequencies as mutual in X and Y direction, showing that these dynamic modes are torsional modes. This result is investigated by numerical analysis performed with finite element model of the building constructed for design purpose. Lower frequencies and different mode shapes are determined from numerical analysis. The reason of lower frequencies is discussed and the vibration survey is extended to determine the effects of an adjacent building. The results showed that the building is in strong relation with an adjoining building in spite of a designed construction joint.

In this paper, proposed is a control system for a galvanometer which is widely used fer laser display, laser processing and marking systems. The galvanometer with mirror is modeled as a second-order dynamic system Based on frequency responses and time domain responses of the developed model, a conventional PID controller is designed And it is implemented using a DSP(TMS320C32) chip with precision A/D and D/A converters. Through frequency response and experimental results, it is convinced that the proposed control system works well in real environment. Furthermore it is very easy to be connected to any PC because of USB communication port, and the cost of the marking system can be lowered very much because the DSP do the all the jobs for generating font motion as well as controlling the galvanometer.

1 mol% $Li_2O$ excess $0.9(Na_{0.52}K_{0.48})NbO_3-0.1LiTaO_3$ lead-free piezoelectric multilayer ceramic actuators were investigated to determine their aging properties. To reduce the thermal aging behavior, we applied a rectified unipolar electric field of 5 kV/mm to the specimen to accelerate the electric aging behavior. By employing a rectified unipolar electric field for the piezoelectric actuators, we could remove undesirable heating from the relaxation current in the motion of the ferroelectric domain. To accelerate the aging test, the applied electric fields had a frequency of 900 Hz. To have enough time for charging and discharging, we employed an accurate time constant to design the equivalent circuit model for the aging tester. To extract exact aging behavior, we measured the pseudo-piezoelectric coefficient before and after the aging process. We also measured the electro-mechanical coupling coefficient, the frequency-dependent dielectric permittivity, and the impedance to compare with fresh and aged specimen.

A new method to reduce the computation time in power/ground-plane analysis is proposed. The existing method using the two dimensional infinite series summation take a lot of computation time. The proposed method is based on the approximation of impedance in the frequency domain through the Mobius transform. This method shows the good accuracy and the high speed in computing. In the case of impedance calculation for 9'x4' board, the proposed method takes 0.16 second of computing time whereas the existing method takes 2.2 second. This method can be applied to the analysis and design of power/ground-plane that need a lot of computation steps.

In this paper, we improve the matching impedance of antennas by inserting parasitic slots on the ground plane of right-angle triangular slot antennas. The designed antennas characteristics are analyzed by using Finite Different Time Domain (FDTD) method, the specific design frequency is 10 GHz and match impedance is 50 ohms. Simulation results show that the efficient of return loss and radiation patterns are improved and enhance. In this case, the right-angle triangular slot antennas with parasitic slots have matching impedance better than antennas without parasitic slots.

In this paper, we designed and implemented the MIMO (Multiple-Input Multiple-Output) antenna for the mobile handset that could be used for multiple services. Simulation results were obtained using SEMCAD X by SPEAG based on the FDTD (Finite Difference Time Domain) Method which showed that S11 values were less than -6 dB (VSWR < 3) for LTE (Long Term Evolution) 700/2300/2500, K-PCS (Korea-Personal Communication Service : 1,750 ~ 1,870 MHz), US-PCS (US-Personal Communication Service : 1,850 ~ 1,990 MHz), Wibro (2,300 ~ 2,390 MHz), Bluetooth (2,400 ~ 2,483 MHz), and US-WiMAX (US-World interoperability for Microwave Access: 2,400 ~ 2,590 MHz) frequency bands. Measured results of the fabricated antenna also showed that it could be used for LTE 700/2300/2500, K-PCS, US-PCS, Wibro, Bluetooth, and US-WiMAX. services.

Base-isolated nuclear power plant (BI-NPP) structures are founded on expanded basemat as a flexible floating nuclear island, are still lacking the recommendation of the consideration of incoherent motion effect. The effect of incoherent earthquake motion on the seismic response of BI-NPP structure has been investigated herein. The incoherency of the ground motions is applied by using an isotropic frequency-dependent spatial correlation function to perform the conditional simulation of the reference design spectrum compatible ground motion in time domain. Time history analysis of two structural models with 486 and 5 equivalent lead plug rubber bearing (LRB) base-isolators have been done under uniform excitation and multiple point excitation. two different cases have been considered: 1) Incoherent motion generated for soft soil and 2) Incoherent motion generated for hard rock soil. The results show that the incoherent motions reduce acceleration and the lateral displacement responses and the reduction is noticeable at soft soil site and higher frequencies.

This paper introduces that the lathe optimize for main and sub spindle's synchronous in Opening-CNC. In view of optimal design, the mathematical modelling and the frequency domain analysis of spindle's system are performed. For the compensation of synchronous error in compounded manufacture process, the optimization method of motor drive's control parameter and the related parameter is proposed. By the experiment in prototype machines using the server/client program, the validity of the proposed method is verified.
