  • The paper presents a comparison between a semi-implicit time integration linear finite element implementation and fully-implicit nonlinear Newton-Raphson finite element implementation of a triphasic small strain mixture formulation of an elastic partially saturated porous medium. The pore air phase pressure pa is assumed atmospheric, i.e., $p_a$ = 0, although the formulation and implementation are general to handle increase in pore air pressure as a result of loading, if needed. The solid skeleton phase is assumed linear isotropic elastic and partially saturated 'consolidation' in the presence of surface infiltration and traction is simulated. The verification of the implementation against an analytical solution for partially saturated pore water flow (no deformation) and comparison between the two implementations is presented and the important of the porosity-dependent nature of the partially saturated permeability is assessed on comparison with a commercial code for the partially saturated flow with deformation. As a result, the response of partially saturated permeability subjected to the porosity influences on the saturation of a soil, and the different behaviors of the partially saturated soil between staggered and monolithic coupled programs is worth of attention because the negative pore water pressure in the partially saturated soil depends on the difference.

  • In this paper, a numerical simulation study was conducted on the seismic behavior and ductility demand of single-degree-of-freedom (SDOF) systems with partially self-centering hysteresis. Unlike fully self-centering systems, partially self-centering systems display noticeable residual displacement after unloading is completed. Such partially self-centering behavior has been observed in a number of recently researched self-centering structural systems with energy dissipation devices. It is thus of interest to examine the seismic performance such as ductility demand of partially self-centering systems. In this study, a modified flag-shaped hysteresis model with residual displacement is proposed to represent the hysteretic behavior of partially self-centering structural systems. A parametric study considering the effect of variations in post-yield stiffness ratio, energy dissipation coefficient, and residual displacement ratio on the displacement ductility demand of partially self-centering systems was conducted using a suite of 192 scaled ground motions. The results of this parametric study reveal that increasing the post-yield stiffness, energy dissipation coefficient or residual displacement ratio of the partially self-centering systems generally leads to reduced ductility demand, especially for systems with lower yield strength.

  • There are over 30[%] of electric fires in Korea happened at wire or wiring devices. For its prevention many safety devices are set up electric equipments. These safety devices are not working in a rated current's condition of electric equipment. But when wire is partially disconnected, electric fire is able to be happened even though current is smaller than a rated current value. This paper studied thermal characteristics and fire ability when wire in plug is partially disconnected. The experiment is progressed a method that inner wire of plug is partially disconnected and after that current that is less than a rated current is flowed. As the result, heating occurred in near of partially disconnected wire makes that outer sheath is melted, plug cover is carbonized, and even sometimes wire is fused. And results of analysis of thermal image of partially disconnected wire happened in plug, it shows a difference to heating distribution and temperature appeared surface of plug depend on a progress of a partially disconnected wire.

  • An innovative partially precast partially encased composite beam (PPECB) is put forward based on the existing research. In order to study the flexural performance of the new composite beam which has precast part and cast-in-place part, six prefabricated specimens and one cast-in-place specimen are designed with considering the influence of the production method, the steel flange thickness, the concrete strength grade and the stirrup process on the behavior of the composite beam. Through four points loading and test data collection and analysis, the behavior of partially prefabricated specimen is similar to that of cast-in-place specimen, and the casting method, the thickness of the steel flange, the concrete strength grade and the stirrup process have different influence on the crack, yield and peak load bearing capacity of the component. Finally, the calculation theory of plastic bending of partially precast partially encased concrete composite beams is given. The calculation results are in good agreement with the experimental results, which can be used for practical engineering theory guidance. This paper can provide reference value for further research and engineering application.

  • Proxy signature scheme allow a designated proxy person to sign a message on behalf of the original signer. Partially blind signature scheme allows the signer to insert non-removable common information into his blind signature. Proxy signature and partially blind signature are very important technologies in secure e-commerce. In this paper we propose new proxy signature scheme and ID-based partially blind signature scheme using bilinear pairing. further combining them, we propose a proxy partially blind signature scheme. The security of our schemes relies on the hardness of Computational Diffie-Hellman Problem. If we removing common information form propose ID-based partially blind signature scheme and proxy partially blind signature scheme, then they become variants of ID-based blind signature scheme and proxy blind signature scheme of Zhangs respectively.

  • Srivastava and Anderson(1970) illustrate a method of obtaining Balanced (but not orthogonal) Resolution $IV^*$ designs starting with a BIB design. The incidence matrix of a BIB design with parameters (v, b, r, k, and $\lambda$) is utilized to obtain Balanced Resolution $IV^*$ designs with m factors and n=2b runs, where $m \leq v$. In this paper, the same idea is extended to the case of PBIB designs to obtain Partially Balanced Resolution $IV^*$ designs. In the designs obtained here the variances are balanced and the covariances are partially balanced with respect to the main effects. A proof of this property of Partially Balanced Resoultion $IV^*$ designs is given. The efficiency of Partially Balanced Resolution $IV^*$ designs is also considered and examples of Partially Balanced Resoultion $IV^*$ designs are included.

  • Recently, the external prestressed concrete structures are increasingly being built. The mechanical behavior of prestressed concrete beams with external tendon is different from that of normal bonded PSC beams in that the increment of tendon stress was derived by whole member behavior. By this reason, the ultimate stress of external tendon is smaller than that of bonded tendon or internal unbonded tendon. The purposes of the present paper are therefore to improve the mechanical behavior of external unbonded tendon by using partially bonded external tendon and to evaluate the flexural behavior of partially bonded external tendon by the flexural member experiment. From the experimental results, before flexural cracking, there was no difference between external unbonded, partially bonded and bonded tendons. However, after cracking, yielding load of reinforcement, ultimate load, and tendon stress were increased in the sequence of external unbonded, partially bonded and bonded tendon members. The equation of ACI-318 and AASHTO 1994 were not matched with test results and had no correlations. So the newly proposed equation will be needed including the consideration of tendon profile, tendon bonded type, and so on. The proposed partially bonded external tendon in this paper will be a effective basis for the evaluation of external tendons in construction and design.

  • We designed and fabricated partially shorted MSA with a slot for 850 MHz on Copper-clad Laminate substrate, where the width of the radiation patch is identical with that of the ground plane and one side of the radiation patch is partially shorted to the ground plane. The radiation patterns of ZX, XY and ZY planes were measured. As a result, a better co and cross polarization lot ZX plane was obtained, compared to the partially shorted MSA without a slot.

  • The potential of combustion treatment of low concentration VOC on a turbulent partially premixed flame has been studied experimentally. The significant decrease in hydrocarbon concentration from the low concentration VOC was observed with a turbulent partially premixed flame. The VOC/inert gas mixture whose fuel concentration is beyond the flammability limit could be treated in this method.

  • A partially ordered set P is ideal-homogeneous provided that for any ideals I and J, if $$I{\sim_=}_{\sigma}J$$, then there exists an automorphism ${\sigma}^*$ such that ${\sigma}^*{\mid}_I={\sigma}$. Behrendt [1] characterizes the ideal-homogeneous partially ordered sets of height 1. In this paper, we characterize the ideal-homogeneous partially ordered sets of height 2 and nd some families of ideal-homogeneous partially ordered sets.
