The objective of this paper is to apply a new proposed accuracy indicator to quantify the true and false modes for Eigensystem Realization Algorithm using output-based responses. First, a discrete mass-spring system and a simply supported continuous beam were modelled using finite element method. Then responses are simulated under random excitation. Natural Excitation Technique using only response measurements is applied to compute the impulse responses. Eigensystem Realization Algorithm is employed to identify the modal parameters on the simulated responses. A new accuracy indicator, Normalized Occurrence Number-NON, is developed to quantitatively partition the realized modes into true and false modes so that the false portions can be disregarded. Numerical simulation demonstrates that the new accuracy indicator can determine the true system modes accurately.

Composite laminated structures supported on elastic foundations are being increasingly used in a great variety of engineering applications. Composites exhibit larger dispersion in their material properties compared to the conventional materials due to large number of parameters associated with their manufacturing and fabrication processes. And also the dispersion in elastic foundation stiffness parameter is inherent due to inaccurate modeling and determination of elastic foundation properties in practice. For a better modeling of the material properties and foundation, these are treated as random variables. This paper deals with effects of randomness in material properties and foundation stiffness parameters on the free vibration response of laminated composite plate resting on an elastic foundation. A $C^0$ finite element method has been used for arriving at an eigen value problem. Higher order shear deformation theory has been used to model the displacement field. A mean centered first order perturbation technique has been employed to handle randomness in system properties for obtaining the stochastic characteristic of frequency response. It is observed that small amount of variations in random material properties and foundation stiffness parameters significantly affect the free vibration response of the laminated composite plate. The results have been compared with those available in the literature and an independent Monte Carlo simulation.

Various modified algorithms of rapidly-exploring random tree (RRT) have been previously proposed. However, compared to the RRT algorithm for collision avoidance with global and static obstacles, it is not easy to find a collision avoidance and local path re-planning algorithm for dynamic obstacles based on the RRT algorithm. In this study, we propose boundary-RRT*, a novel-algorithm that can be applied to aerial vehicles for collision avoidance and path re-planning in a three-dimensional environment. The algorithm not only bounds the configuration space, but it also includes an implicit bias for the bounded configuration space. Therefore, it can create a path with a natural curvature without defining a bias function. Furthermore, the exploring space is reduced to a half-torus by combining it with simple right-of-way rules. When defining the distance as a cost, the proposed algorithm through numerical analysis shows that the standard deviation (σ) approaches 0 as the number of samples per unit time increases and the length of epsilon ε (maximum length of an edge in the tree) decreases. This means that a stable waypoint list can be generated using the proposed algorithm. Therefore, by increasing real-time performance through simple calculation and the boundary of the configuration space, the algorithm proved to be suitable for collision avoidance of aerial vehicles and replanning of local paths.

This paper demonstrates how ambient vibration measurements at a limited number of locations can be effectively utilized to estimate parameters of a finite element model of a large-scale structural system involving a large number of elements. System identification using ambient vibration measurements presents a challenge requiring the use of special identification techniques, which ran deal with very small magnitudes of ambient vibration contaminated by noise without the knowledge of input farces. In the present study, the modal parameters such as natural frequencies, damping ratios, and mode shapes of the structural system were estimated by means of appropriate system identification techniques including the random decrement method. Moreover, estimation of parameters such as the stiffness matrix of the finite element model from the system response measured by a limited number of sensors is another challenge. In this study, the system stiffness matrix was estimated by using the quadratic optimization involving the computed and measured modal strain energy of the system, with the aid of a sensitivity relationship between each element stiffness and the modal parameters established by the second order inverse modal perturbation theory. The finite element models thus identified represent the actual structural system very well, as their calculated dynamic characteristics satisfactorily matched the observed ones from the ambient vibration test performed on a large-scale structural system subjected primarily to ambient wind excitations. The dynamic models identified by this study will be used for design of an active mass damper system to be installed on this structure fer suppressing its wind vibration.

현재의 인공지능에서 사용되는 자연어 처리 모델은 거대하여 실시간으로 데이터를 처리하고 분석하는 것은 여러가지 어려움들을 야기하고 있다. 이런 어려움을 해결하기 위한 방법으로 메모리를 적게 사용해 처리의 효율성을 개선하는 방법을 제안하고 제안된 모델의 성능을 확인하였다. 본 논문에서 제안한 모델의 성능평가를 위해 적용한 기법은 BERT[1] 모델의 어텐션 헤드 개수와 임베딩 크기를 작게 조절해 큰 말뭉치를 나눠서 분할 처리 후 출력값의 평균을 통해 결과를 산출하였다. 이 과정에서 입력 데이터의 다양성을 주기위해 매 에폭마다 임의의 오프셋을 문장에 부여하였다. 그리고 모델을 분류가 가능하도록 미세 조정하였다. 말뭉치를 분할 처리한 모델은 그렇지 않은 모델 대비 정확도가 12% 정도 낮았으나, 모델의 파라미터 개수는 56% 정도 절감되는 것을 확인하였다.

Aflatoxins are natural contaminants of poultry feeds and feed ingredients and cause liver damage, immunosuppression, reduction in performance and mortality in broilers. A number of studies have been carried out to study the effects of aflatoxin on feed conversion ratio in broilers. The results on feed conversion ratio of 10 research articles in broilers fed with aflatoxin from first day of age to six weeks of age were compiled and were subjected to meta-analysis. Chi-square test and $Tau^2$ (heterogeneity co-efficient) were applied to test for significance of heterogeneity of studies. To integrate results, fixed effect model by Inverse Variance method (IV method) was used when heterogeneity was insignificant and otherwise random effect model by DerSimonian and Laird Method (DL method) was used. The results of meta-analysis showed that the adverse effect of aflatoxin on feed conversion ratio at the end of first week was negligible, second week was medium and third to six weeks was very large.

A simple microwave backscattering model for vegetation canopies on earth surfaces is developed in this study. A natural earth surface is modeled as a two-layer structure comprising a vegetation layer and a ground layer. This scattering model includes various scattering mechanisms up to the first-order multiple scattering( double-bounce scattering). Radar backscatter from ground surface has been modeled by the polarimetric semi-empirical model (PSEM), while the backscatter from the vegetation layer modeled by the vector radiative transfer model. The vegetation layer is modeled by random distribution of mixed scattering particles, such as leaves, branches and trunks. The number of input parameters has been minimized to simplify the scattering model. The computation results are compared with the experimental measurements, which were obtained by ground-based scatterometers and NASA/JPL air-borne synthetic aperture radar(SAR) system. It was found that the scattering model agrees well with the experimental data, even though the model used only ten input parameters.

The main objective of this study is to investigate the fluid flow and the heat transfer characteristics of nanofluids using multi-phase thermal LBM and to realize theenhancement of heat transfer characteristics considered in the Brownian motion. In multi-phase, fluid component($H_2O$) is driven by Boussinesq approximation, and nanoparticles component by the external force gravity and buoyancy. The effect of Brownian motion as a random movement is modified to the internal velocity of nanoparticles(Cu). Simultaneously, the particles of both the phases assume the local equilibrium temperature after each collision. It has been observed that when simulating $H_2O$-Cu nanoparticles, the heat transfer is the highest, at the particle volume fraction 0.5% of the particle diameter 10 nm. The average Nusselt number is increased approximately by 33% at the particle volume fraction 0.5% of the particle diameter 10 nm when compared with pure water.

Effectiveness of multiple tuned mass dampers (MTMD) in suppressing the dynamic response of base excited structure for first mode vibration is investigated. The effectiveness of the MTMD is expressed by the ratio of the root mean square (RMS) displacement of the structure with MTMD to corresponding displacement without MTMD. The frequency content of base excitation is modelled as a broad-band stationary random process. The MTMD's with uniformly distributed natural frequencies are considered for this purpose. A parametric study is conducted to investigate the fundamental characteristics of the MTMD's and the effect of important parameters on the effectiveness of the MTMD's. The parameters include: the fundamental characteristics of the MTMD system such as damping, mass ratio, total number of MTMD, tuning frequency ratio, frequency spacing of the dampers and frequency content of the base excitation. It has been shown that MTMD can be more effective and more robust than a single TMD with equal mass and damping ratio.
