This paper presents a detailed procedure for a nonlinear soil-structure interaction of a seismically isolated NPP(Nuclear Power Plant) structure using the boundary reaction method (BRM). The BRM offers a two-step method as follows: (1) the calculation of boundary reaction forces in the frequency domain on an interface of linear and nonlinear regions, (2) solving the wave radiation problem subjected to the boundary reaction forces in the time domain. For the purpose of calculating the boundary reaction forces at the base of the isolator, the KIESSI-3D program is employed in this study to solve soil-foundation interaction problem subjected to vertically incident seismic waves. Wave radiation analysis is also employed, in which the nonlinear structure and the linear soil region are modeled by finite elements and energy absorbing elements on the outer model boundary using a general purpose nonlinear FE program. In this study, the MIDAS/Civil program is employed for modeling the wave radiation problem. In order to absorb the outgoing elastic waves to the unbounded soil region, spring and viscous-damper elements are used at the outer FE boundary. The BRM technique utilizing KIESSI-3D and MIDAS/Civil programs is verified using a linear soil-structure analysis problem. Finally the method is applied to nonlinear seismic analysis of a base-isolated NPP structure. The results show that BRM can effectively be applied to nonlinear soil-structure interaction problems.

Rings are common in disk galaxies. These rings are either indistinguishable from a pair of tightly wound spirals, or themselves are a part of the spiral structure. Furthermore, their occurrence is seen coincident with a bar in the center. In this paper, we interpret this spiral-ring structure as density waves resonantly excited by a rotating bar potential. The theory gives excellent agreement for the molecular spiral-rings in central parts. of nearby disk galaxies, observed by high resolution radio arrays. The same mechanism works for more distant spiral-rings in the outer parts of disk galaxies qualitatively, although the problem is complicated by the coupling of the stellar and gaseous disks.

The problem for the collapse of isothermal and rotational self-gravitational viscous disk is considered. We derive self-similar solutions for the cases in the inner and outer regions of the self-gravitational viscous disk. We show that surface density depends on ${\sigma}_0/r$ in the outer region of the disk using a slow accretion approximation. The ratio of a modified viscous parameter in the outer region of the disk to that in the inner region is 0.042. We resorted to numerical solutions of governing equations of the self-gravitational disk to find out profiles of ${\sigma}$, u and ${\upsilon}$ in terms of x. Their profiles were rapidly changed around the innermost region of the self-gravitational disk. It indicates that a new object was formed in the most inner region of the disk.

This paper deals with a waypoint trajectory following problem for the tilt-rotor UAV under development in Korea (TR-KUAV). In this problem, dynamic model inversion based on the linearized model and Sigma-Phi neural network with adaptive weight update are involved to realize the waypoint following algorithm for the vehicle in the helicopter flight mode (nacelle angle=0 deg). This algorithms consists of two main parts: outer-loop system as a command generator and inner-loop system as stabilizing controller. In this waypoint following problem, the position information in the inertial axis is given to the outer-loop system. From this information, Attitude Command/Attitude Hold logic in the longitudinal channel and Rate Command/Attitude Hold logic in the lateral channel are realized in the inner-loop part of the overall structure of the waypoint following algorithm. The nonlinear simulation based on the TR-KUAV is carried out to evaluate the stability and performance of the algorithm. From the numerical simulation results, the algorithm shows very good tracking performance of passing the waypoints given. Especially, it is observed that ACAH/RCAH logic in the inner-loop has the satisfactory performance due to adaptive neural network in spite of the model error coming from the linear model based inversion.

본 논문에서는 주파수 도약 위성 통신 시스템에서 정지 궤도 위성의 드리프트로 인해 Early-Late gate 동기 추적 알고리즘으로는 흡 동기를 유지할 수 없는 현상이 발생하는 문제를 해결하기 위한 동기추적 알고리즘을 제안하였다. 위성에 탑재된 역도약-재도약 중계기를 통해 신호가 중계될 때, 위성의 드리프트로 인하여 수신된 홉의 양쪽 에지에서의 에너지 유실 때문에 Early-Late gate 동기추적 알고리즘을 사용했을 경우 홉 동기를 유지할 수 없는 현상이 발생한다. 그러한 문제를 해결하기 위해 기존의 Ranging 거리 정보를 사용한 Early-Late gate 홉 에너지를 비교하는 구조를 변형하여 Inner-Outer gate 홉 에너지를 비교하고 송신타이밍을 예측하여 동기를 추적하는 Anti-Shrink 알고리즘을 제안하였다. 시뮬레이션 결과, 제안된 알고리즘은 기존의 내부-외부 에너지비율 알고리즘보다 우수하고, Ranging 거리정보를 사용한 Early-Late gate 동기추적 알고리즘보다 성능은 유사하지만 Ranging 정보를 사용하지 않고도 에너지 손실이 적어 위성의 드리프트에 robust하게 동기유지가 가능하다.

The majority of problems to which FDTD is being applied involve open structure which require the appropriate scheme to terminate the computational domain. In particular, for the propagation problem of the outgoing waves, a certain type of boundary condition needs to be applied on outer boundaries of the computational domain to generate no reflected waves. In this paper, a new simple technique is presented, which allows the reduced computation time and excellent absorbing characteristics for normal and oblique incident waves on outer boundaries. To illustrate the validity of this method, a numerical calculation for monopole antenna is carried out and the results are compared to measured data. The time-domain properties for circular patch antennas are investicated.

A method for decoupling reliability based design optimization problem into a set of deterministic optimization and performing a reliability analysis is described. The inner reliability analysis and the outer optimization are performed separately in a sequential manner. Since the outer optimizer must perform a large number of iterations to find the optimized shape and size of structure, the computational cost is very high. Therefore, during the course of this research, new multilevel reliability optimization methods are developed that divide the design domain into two sub-spaces to be employed in an iterative procedure: one of the shape design variables, and the other of the size design variables. In each iteration, the probability constraints are converted into equivalent deterministic constraints using reliability analysis and then implemented in the deterministic optimization problem. The framework is first tested on a short column with cross-sectional properties as design variables, the applied loads and the yield stress as random variables. In addition, two cases of curvilinearly stiffened panels subjected to uniform shear and compression in-plane loads, and two cases of curvilinearly stiffened panels subjected to shear and compression loads that vary in linear and quadratic manner are presented.

In general, the lock structure is built at place of having great deal range for dealing with effective ships operation such as in the west coast of Korea. In Inchon harbour, the two locks of 10 KT and 50 KT tonnage class in total has been constructed for several years age, however, it has been recorded many waiting vessels at outer harbour due to the increment of oceangoing vessels & shortage of berthing facilities in accordance with beyond expectation of cargo amount increment. This paper attempts to solves the waiting vessels problem at outer harbour by simulation in applying queing theory. It is found that the simulation results such as average queue time, service time, and queue length during lock operation can be applied to find the minimum of the cost function for determination of optimum Lock Size

The present study aims to design electrically and structurally effective antenna structures in order that the structural surface itself could become the antenna. The basic design concept is composite sandwich structure in which microstrip antenna is embedded and this is termed composite smart structure (CSS). The most important outstanding problem is that composite materials of structural function cannot be used without reducing antenna efficiency. Unfortunately, such materials have high electrical loss. This is a significant design problem that needs to be solved in practical applications. Therefore, the effect of composites facesheet on antenna performances is studied in the first stage. Changes in the gain of microstrip antenna due to composites facesheet have been determined. 'Open condition' is defined when gain is maximized and is a significant new concept in the design of high-gain antennas considering bandwidth in practical application. The open condition can be made with any thickness of outer facesheet by controlling its position. In the design of CSS, glass/epoxy composites and Nomex honeycomb were used with exploiting open condition. Experiments, confirm that the gain is improved (over 11 dBi) and the bandwidth is also as wide as specified in our requirements (over 10% at 12.2 GHz). With the open condition, wideband antenna can be integrated with mechanical structures without reducing any electrical performances, as confirmed experimentally here.
