Over the past years techniques for non-linear analysis have been enhanced significantly via improved solution procedures, extended finite element techniques and increased robustness of constitutive models. Nevertheless, problems remain, especially for real world structures of softening materials like concrete. The softening gives negative stiffness and risk of bifurcations due to multiple cracks that compete to survive. Incremental-iterative techniques have difficulties in selecting and handling the local peaks and snap-backs. In this contribution, an alternative method is proposed. The softening diagram of negative slope is replaced by a saw-tooth diagram of positive slopes. The incremental-iterative Newton method is replaced by a series of linear analyses using a special scaling technique with subsequent stiffness/strength reduction per critical element. It is shown that this event-by-event strategy is robust and reliable. First, the model is shown to be objective with respect to mesh refinement. Next, the example of a large-scale dog-bone specimen in direct tension is analyzed using an isotropic version of the saw-tooth model. The model is capable of automatically providing the snap-back response. Subsequently, the saw-tooth model is extended to include anisotropy for fixed crack directions to accommodate both tensile cracking and compression strut action for reinforced concrete. Three different reinforced concrete structures are analyzed, a tension-pull specimen, a slender beam and a slab. In all cases, the model naturally provides the local peaks and snap-backs associated with the subsequent development of primary cracks starting from the rebar. The secant saw-tooth stiffness is always positive and the analysis always 'converges'. Bifurcations are prevented due to the scaling technique.

For effective determination of methylthiohydantoin amino acids(MTHs) by gas liquid chromatography in the protein sequencing, derivatization with N-methyl-N-(tert.-butyl-dimethylsilyl)trifluoroacetamide(MTBSTFA), a new silylating reagents, was attempted instead of trimethylsilyl(TMSi) derivatives by N,O-bis(trimethylsilyl)trifluoroacetamide(BSTFA) used up to the present and N(O)-butyldimethylsilyl MTHs derivatized by MTBSTFA were analysed on HP-1 capillary column. Twenty one protein amino acids except cystine were indentified. Especially arginine that did not detected with TMSi derivative on packed column until now was resolved by derivatization with MTBSTFA. N(O)-butyldimethylsilyl MTHs showed multiple peaks by MTBSTFA were proline, isoleucine, glycine and tyrosine and hydroxyproline especially showed several extraneous peaks more than two. Calibration curves of N(O)-butyldimethysilyl MTHs of amino acids in the range of $2.5\;nmol{\sim}7.5\;nmole$ showed good linearity. however, those of lysine, histidine and arginine showed linearity in the range of $5.0\;nmole{\sim}15.0\;nmole$. Correlation coefficients and regression coefficients of all calibration curves were highly significant(p<0.001).

The intensities and central velocities of line profiles show significant variations with positions. In contrast to the in tensities of the low J-level transitions which gradually increase from the central source toward the outside region the HC3N emission of the high J-level transition become stronger toward the central radio continuum source MO5. Systematic chainge in the radial velocity of each line profile occurs along north-south direction there are a few peaks in most line profiles, and these indicate that there not multiple velocity components along the line of sight. Distributions of excitation temperah at and column density which were estimated from the excitation calculations show the existence of a small(IxEpc),hot(Tex> SOK) core which contains two tempegatlue peaks at -15" east and north of MDS.

1991년 한국에서 열렸던 밀리미터파 및 적외선천문학에 관한 동북아시아지역 Workshop에서의 합의에 근거하여, 장래의 동북아시아천문대와 동북아시아 지역에 있어서의 당면적인 국제협력관계를 만들어가기 위하여, 중국오지에서의 지상관측을 위한 1차 부지탐사를 1993년 9월에 대만, 일본, 중국, 한국의 4개국 합동으로 추진하였다. 천문학은 본래 지극히 국제적인 과학이며, 따라서 국제협력없이는 앞으로 나아가지 않는다. 그러나, 과거의 여러 사정에 의해 현재 정상적인 협력관계에 놓여있지 않는 대만, 일본, 중국, 한국이 동북아시아 제국 공통의 최신의 관측소를 가지고서는 상호간에 밀접하게 천문학연구를 진행해 나가기 위한 하나의 꿈이 곧 동북아시아천문대라고 할 수 있다. 동북아시아천문대는 이 지역에서의 천문학의 공통적인 활동장소를 만들어나가는 것을 지향하고 있다. 즉, 여러 나라의 연구자들끼리 자연적으로 밀접한 교류를 행해 나가는 가운데, 천문학을 발전시켜나가는 센터를 만들고자 하는 것이다. 그러므로 여기서 계획하고 있는 부지탐사는 이러한 꿈을 실현해 나가기 위한 첫걸음이라고 할 수 있다. 현재 가시광, 적외선, 밀리미터파, 서브밀리미터파를 막론하고, 지상관측에 있어서 요구되는 조건은 모두 같다고 하겠다. 날씨가 좋고, 건조하여 수증기양이 적으며, 공기의 흔들림이 적고, 인간의 활동에 지장이 없을 정도의 높이와 교통편이 좋을 것 등을 들 수 있다. 그러므로 이번 1차부지탐사에서는 연간일조시간이 3000시간 이상에 달하는 후보지에 대한 대기의 종합적인 측정을 행하며, 아울러 가능하다면 적절한 장소에 소형의 적외선 및 서브밀리미터파의 망원경을 두는 공동계획을 구체화한다.ofile occurs along north-south direction there are a few peaks in most line profiles, and these indicate that there not multiple velocity components along the line of sight.

Recognition of CW Morse signals can be divided into several phases such as detection of tones and spaces, signal processing for removing noise from detected signals, decision of tones/spaces, mapping a sequence of tones and spaces into characters, error correction of a character message with textual repetition. In this paper, in order to cope with signal fading effectively we propose a signal detection method of identifying peaks in the frequency domain and present techniques for combining multiple frequency peaks and for removing residual signal components and noise. LMS adaptive method is applied for decision of tones/spaces, and initial value setting and malfunctioning conditions are analyzed. In recognition experiments, we used CW Morse signals collected by radio receivers and found that the proposed method achieves good recognition performance even in severe fading conditions.

PR spectra of MBE grown AlGaAs/GaAs MQW have been measured at room temperature using the He-Ne laser and the Ar laser as the pump source. We have observed various subband transition peaks and PR spectra were fitted to standard analytic line shape. Above that results, obtained us transition energy from n=1 conduction band to heavy hole(C1-H1) and to light hole(C1-L1) subband. Photoluminescence(PL) at room temperature showed main peak with a shoulder. Good agreement between PL and PR measured n=1 intersubband transition energies was confirmed that PL main peak with a shoulder is associated with the C1-H1, C1-L1 transition. Additionally, we have calculated the C1-H1 and C1-L1 intersubband energy within envelope function approximation(EFA).

A Continuous monitoring of Air Pollution in city of Seoul was carried out from January 1 to December 31 of 1979 at two selected sites, Kwanghwamun observatory and Kwanag observatory. The measured data were averaged on monthly basis. The maximun value of oxidant pollution was observed in July, and the minimum in February. It is the purpose of this study to determine the effect of hydrocarbon, nitrogenoxide, wind velocity and ambient temprature on the observed values of oxidant pollution for the above two months. The results of the study may be summarized as follows. 1) The oxidant concentration in February was higher than in July by about 2 times in both downtown area and the suburbia. The concentration in downtown area was $25.75\pm 4.75ppb$, and that in suburbia was $29.83\pm 5.16ppb$. As for the oxidant concentration in July, it was observed that the suburban area ($26.464\pm 7.59ppb$) had about 2.8 times higher value than the downtown area ($9.284\pm 1.55ppb$). 2) The peak oxidant concentration of suburban area during the daytime is occured from noon to 5:00 P.M.. These patterns are similar to the classical patterns, but the peak Oxidant Concentration of downtown area in February was occured at 9:00A.M. 3) The overall level of nitrogen oxide pollution was much higher in downtown area than in suburban area. Two peaks of nitrogen oxide concentration occured at 10 A.M. and 12 midnight in downtown area. This observation agrees with the report that the air pollution is higher in the area where the pollution sources are concentrated. 4) The multiple correlation analysis for the oxidant and the other variables measured in February in downtown area showed close correlation with nitrogen oxide and ambient temprature. The multiple correlation coefficient of oxidant with nitrogen oxide was 0.872, and that with nitrogen oxide and temperature simultaneously was 0.903. The multiple correlation equation used for this study may be expressed as follows:

This paper presents the detailed statistics on radiation field signatures associated with multiple-intracloud lightning discharges. A transient signal recording system was used to measure the electric and magnetic fields produced by lightning flashes. The measurements were made in th summers of 1995 through 1999, and the location of the observation station was in Inchon on the coast of the Yellow Sea in Korea(37$^{\circ}$25'N, 126$^{\circ}$ 39'E). Most of lightning flashes typically contains between two and five strokes. The individual intracloud stork radiation fields were the bipolar pulse. On the average, the ratio of the peak of the second stroke to the first stroke peak was 75.1$\pm$40.1% for the negative, and a fraction of the subsequent stroke peaks were higher than the first stroke peak. The greater the number of the subsequent stroke order, less time separations between strokes were produced. The mean of the depth of the dip was 81.2$\pm$27.9% for the positive polarity and 75.9$\pm$24.4% for the negative. The depth of the dip increased for the positive bipolar pulses and decreased for the negative as the number of the stroke order increased.

In this study, two rectangular barges in close proximity were simulated to analyze the characteristics of motion responses due to hydrodynamic interactions. Using a numerical solution from DNV-GL SESAM, coupled stiffness matrix terms for these same FEM models were added to the multiple body modes in the surge direction. Potential theory was used to calculate the first order radiation and diffraction effects on the simulated barge models. In the results, the sheltering effect of the barges was not shown at 1.3 rad/s with hull separation of 20 m in transverse waves. The separation effect between the barges was more clear with longitudinal waves and a shallow water depth. However, sway forces were influenced by hull separation with transverse waves. The peaks for sway and heave motion and sway force occurred at higher frequencies as hull separation narrowed with longitudinal and transverse waves. Given a depth of 10 m, the sway motion on the lee side of a coupled barge made a significant difference in the range of 0.2-0.8 rad/s with transverse and oblique waves. Also, the peaks for sway force were situated at lower frequencies, even when incident waves changed.

During the loading/offloading operation of a liquefied natural gas carrier (LNGC) that is moored in a side-by-side configuration with an offshore plant, sloshing that occurs due to the partially filled LNG tank and the interactive effect between the two floating bodies are important factors that affect safety and operability. Therefore, a time-domain software program, called CHARM3D, was developed to consider the interactions between sloshing and the motion of a floating body, as well as the interactions between multiple bodies using the potential-viscous hybrid method. For the simulation of a floating body in the time domain, hydrodynamic coefficients and wave forces were calculated in the frequency domain using the 3D radiation/diffraction panel program based on potential theory. The calculated values were used for the simulation of a floating body in the time domain by convolution integrals. The liquid sloshing in the inner tanks is solved by the 3D-FDM Navier-Stokes solver that includes the consideration of free-surface non-linearity through the SURF scheme. The computed sloshing forces and moments were fed into the time integration of the ship's motion, and the updated motion was, in turn, used as the excitation force for liquid sloshing, which is repeated for the ensuing time steps. For comparison, a sloshing motion coupled analysis program based on linear potential theory in the frequency domain was developed. The computer programs that were developed were applied to the side-by-side offloading operation between the offshore plant and the LNGC. The frequency-domain results reproduced the coupling effects qualitatively, but, in general, the peaks were over-predicted compared to experimental and time-domain results. The interactive effects between the sloshing liquid and the motion of the vessel can be intensified further in the case of multiple floating bodies.
