  • High speed railway challenge the design, construction and maintaining of traditional railway, many traditional design concepts have been changed. Transition of railway and bridge has two main problems. one is that different lines have different ability of resisting distortion in area of trial load, which was known that problem of smooth transition of stiffness, the other is that differential settlement between artificial structure and earth structure cause bending of railway. The two problems have effect on train moving. The principle of processing transition of railway and bridge is same in world, but it is difficult to find relationship between design standard of transition, vehicle performance, line standard, design speed and so on form documentation and data reports. Based on mechanics, the paper analyzed dynamic performance of transition of high speed railway, studied various rough elements which is effective to train moving, built mathematical model of interaction of train and transition of high speed railway and developed numerical simulation software. In various different work conditions, we did great quantity of numerical simulation, comprehensive analysis and performance analysis.

  • This study aims to extend the application of the spectral element method (SEM) to wave propagation and free vibration analysis of functionally graded (FG) plates integrated with thin piezoelectric layers, plates with tapered thickness and structure on elastic foundations. Also, the dynamic response of the smart FG plate under impact and moving loads is presented. In this paper, the dynamic stiffness matrix of the smart rectangular FG plate is determined by using the exact dynamic shape functions based on Mindlin plate assumptions. The low computational time and results' independence with the number of elements are two significant features of the SEM. Also, to prove the accuracy and efficiency of the SEM, results are compared with Abaqus simulations and those reported in references. Furthermore, the effects of boundary conditions, power-law index, piezoelectric layers thickness, and type of loading on the results are studied.

  • This paper reviews the literature on urban sustainability with the objective of drawing more attention to the social aspect of sustainability in urban planning. Given that social capital is a crucial component of moving towards more progressive smart cities and urban innovation, it is important to investigate the social dimension of sustainability and the opportunities that just cities can bring to improve the quality of life for urban dwellers. This paper is divided into three sections. The initial section provides an introduction to urban sustainability, discussing the historical roots of sustainability and sustainable development ideas, the three fundamental elements of sustainability, and the process of defining and measuring sustainability in an urban setting. Moving on to the second section, it delves into the body of work related to linking urban sustainability with urban strategies. The third section finally addresses the emergence of literature on just sustainability and just cities, which can give valuable insights to city policymakers who are trying to improve balanced sustainability.

  • It necessarily follows that wear particles are generated through a friction and wear in a mechanical moving system. The wear particles are relative to the failure and the life of machine elements directly. To analyze the wear particle, its shape characteristics were calculated quantitative values such as diameter, roundness and fractal parameters by digital image processing. In this study, the histograms of shape parameters of wear particles were used for the purpose of analyzing the distribution of wear particles in various conditions. We consider that the histogram of shape parameter can be effectively represented to study a wear mechanism.

  • This papeer proposes a general approach of the multivariate expontially weighted moving average(MEWMA) chart, in which the smoothing matrix has full elements instead of only diagonal elements. The average run length (ARL) properties of this scheme are examined for a diverse set of quality control environments and the information to design the chhart is provied. Performance of the scheme is measured by estmating ARL and compared to those of two group cumulative sum (CUSUM) chats. The comparison resullts show that the MEWMA chart can improve its ARL performance in detecting a small shifts out-of-control in the start-up stage, the general MEWMA chart of a full smoothing matrix appears to offer an exceptional protection aginst departures from control in the process mean.

  • Aerodynamic analysis of NACA wings moving with a constant speed over guideways are performed using an indirect boundary element method (potential-based panel method). An integral equation is obtained by applying Green's theorem on all surfaces of the fluid domain. The surfaces over the wing and the guideways are discretized as rectangular panel elements. Constant strength singularities are distributed over the panel elements. The viscous shear layer behind the wing is represented by constant strength dipoles. The unknown strengths of potentials are determined by inverting the aerodynamic influence coefficient matrices constructed by using the no penetration conditions on the surfaces and the Kutta condition at the trailing edge of the wing. The aerodynamic characteristics for the wings flying over nonplanar ground surfaces are investigated for several ground heights.

  • Informationization is fast progressing in Korean and the informationization of education is also moving ahead fast. With informationization of education going fast ahead, cyber education is also increasing. Given such scenario, we should establish countermeasures not only to accommodate the current curriculum but also to accommodate the surplus school facilities created by cyber education by compartmentalizing the classrooms for future life-long education, lease and sale in lots. In conclusion, the school construction plan should be established to systematically cope with the future changes systematically.

  • This paper presents a newly proposed object-oriented finite element framework and its applications on dynamic analysis of plate girder bridge. The developed framework supports various types of finite elements, materials, constraints, loads, and solution methods. One major feature different from other object-oriented finite element programs is that static model and dynamic state can be easily read from or written to a file. In addition, the framework supports efficient DOF pattern handling for a node connecting elements with different DOF patterns, new multi-point constraint handling, and various scripting languages for easy use of the library. In order to show the applicability to dynamic analysis, dynamic moving load analysis on plate girder bridge is performed.

  • Whenever moving surfaces of machine driving elements interact in air and lubricating oil, oxidization film on the surfaces are generated. It is effect to prevent friction and wear on contact area. Since the electronic current progress the oxidization of metal, if the electronic flow be regulated, the thickness of oxidization film can be regulated and friction characteristics can be improved. But the electronic current can deteriorate friction characteristics, so various characteristics must be investigated on transforming of electronic current. Therefor, using the Norton equation in this study, short current were transformed between frictional materials using ball on disk type tester. It was studied on effect of electronic current for friction characteristics.

  • One of the most serious promblems in the concrete structures is cracking failure due to the several complicated reasons. These cracks are not only serious structural problems, but also lower the durability and deteriorate the structural shape, which cause the reinforcement rust in the open air and sea water. An analytical study was undertaken to investigate the cracking problems in the one of concrete caissons using Finite Element Method. This caisson is modelled with plate elements and truss elements for the walls and lifting cables respectively and analyzed in the every construction stages, such as lifting, moving, sinking, filling, towing, setting, and proposed reasonable construction methods for the concrete caisson structures.
