The entire nonlinear behavior of reinforced concrete frames up to collapse, is analyzed by the displacement control method and the combined layered and nonlayered method. All of the rigidities of section are calculated approximately by a sum over all the layers for the layered method, are used the integral values over the cross section area for the nonlayered method. The spurious sensitivity to the chosen element size in the result of analysis by finite element method for the materials with strain-softening can be overcome by modifying the strain distribution based on the concept of fracture energy at plastic hinge considering the applied axial load.

The analysis model is the infinite body consisted of power law creep material containing a rigid inclusion with line crack shape subjected to the arbitrarily directional stress on an infinite boundary. The crack analysis is performed using the complex pseudo-stress function. The strain rate intensity factor is determined in the closed form as new fracture mechanics parmeter which represents the magnitudes of stress and strain rate near the tip in power law creep material.

This paper presents the formulation for a novel force-based 1-D compound-element that captures both material and second order P-${\Delta}$ nonlinearities in steel frames. At the nodal points, the element is attached to nonlinear rotational and a translational springs which represent the flexural and axial stiffness of the connections respectively. By decomposing the total strain in the material as well as the generalised displacements of the flexible connections to their elastic and inelastic components, a secant solution strategy based on a direct iterative scheme is introduced and the corresponding solution strategy is outlined. The strain and slope of the deformed element are assumed to be small; however the equilibrium equations are satisfied for the deformed element taking account of P-${\Delta}$ effects. The formulation accuracy and efficiency is verified by some numerical examples on the nonlinear static, cyclic and dynamic analysis of steel frames.

We present the numerical characteristics of a new true stress-strain curve acquisition method over a large range of strains by the tensile test and a finite element method through comparing the results obtained by various finite element mesh systems. The method is introduced in detail. The effects of the finite element mesh systems on the results are investigated to show its numerical characteristics of the new method. It is shown that the method is quite robust, implying that it can be used as a special function of the tensile test machines.

Previously RP1::Tn951 which is a derivative of RP1 containing the lactose transposon Tn951 was introduced into Z. mobilis strain ZM6l00, and RP1::Tn951 was integrated into its genome to yield ZM6306. The galactose operon was incorporated into ZM6306 to yield ZM6307 for more efficient utilization of lactose. Batch culture study has been carried out on Z. mobilis strains, ZM6306 ($lac^+$ ) and ZM6307 ($lac^+$ , $gal^+$ ), which can convert lactose directly to ethanol. Using a medium containing 80 gㆍ$1^{-1}$ glucose and 40 gㆍ$1^{-1}$ lactose, it was found that ZM6306 and ZM6307 produced maximum ethanol concentration of 40 gㆍ$1^{-1}$ and 42 gㆍ$1^{-1}$, respectively, whereas parent strain ZM6 produced 37 gㆍ$1^{-1}$.

This paper introduces new impact apparatus using elastic strain energy for Fiber Reinforced Cementitious Composites [HPFRCC] which requires larger size of specimen and higher impact load and energy to fail the specimens. New impact apparatus utilize elastic strain energy to generate high rate impact stress wave and it is much smaller, cheaper and safer than current other impact devices.

The most recent, Vacuum Pipeline for Waste Collecting System, to collect MSW(Municipal Solid Waste) efficiently, is used environmental preservative, to emit less air pollution, in New City. However, it is difficult to monitor broken pipe and filled mass of Waste, because Vacuum Pipeline is laid underground. Therefore, FBG, optical fiber sensor, is used to inspect the temperature change and longitudinal strain to take proper action for unusual situation. I have need to accumlate sensor data of district control. I hope to be used Vacuum Pipeline more than 30 years in New City.

In the paper, we have proposed a new technique to determine the initial billet for the forged products using a function approximation in neural network. A three-layer neural network is used and a back propagation algorithm is employed to train the network. An optimal billet which satisfied the forming limitation, minimum of incomplete filling in the die cavity, load and energy as well as more uniform distribution of effective strain, is determined by applying the ability of function approximation of the neural network. The amount of incomplete filling in the die, load and forming energy as well as effective strain are measured by the rigid-plastic finite element method. This new technique is applied to find the optimal billet size for the axisymmetric rib-web product in hot forging. This would reduce the number of finite element simulation for determining the optimal billet of forging products, further it is usefully adopted to physical modeling for the forging design

A new concrete confinement model is developed to predict the axial load versus displacement behavior of circular columns under concentric axial load. The new confinement model is proposed for concrete filled steel tube columns as well as circular reinforced concrete columns with steel tube jacketing. Existing confinement models were evaluated and improved using available experimental data from different sets of columns tested under similar loading conditions. The proposed model is based on commonly used confinement models with an emphasis on modifying the effective confining pressure coefficient utilizing the strength of the unconfined concrete and the steel tube, the length of the column, and the thickness of the steel tube. The proposed model predicts the ultimate axial strength and the corresponding strain with an acceptable degree of accuracy while also highlighting the importance of the manner in which the steel tube is used.

This paper presents a new hypoelasticity model which was implemented in a nonlinear finite element formulation to analyze reinforced concrete (RC) structures. The model includes a new hypoelasticity constitutive relationship utilizing the rotation of material axis through successive iterations. The model can account for high nonlinearity of the stress-strain behavior of the concrete in the pre-peak regime, the softening behavior of the concrete in the post-peak regime and the irrecoverable volume dilatation at high levels of compressive load. This research introduces the modified version of the common application orthotropic stress-strain relation developed by Darwin and Pecknold. It is endeavored not to violate the principal of "simplicity" by improvement of the "capability" The results of analyses of experimental reinforced concrete walls are presented to confirm the abilities of the proposed relationships.
