The soft structure can make large space more effectively, and its construction is easy and simple as well. However, it is not easy to realize this in the actual space. Therefore, two works are needed to be done for effective and accurate construction of soft structures. First, making a working scenario to complete the final objective form; second revising construction errors occurred in the middle of the actual works. These works are called constructional analysis. At this time, geometric nonlinearity should be considered to reflect the sensitivity by the initial stress of flexible structures, constructional analysis comes down to a nonlinear problem after all. This study approaches nonlinear constructional analysis with the numerical method for adjusting stress of cable-dome structures which are a soft structure system, and then verifies it.

In the present study, the influence of car body structures to the noise and vibration characteristics has been sought. The numerical modal analysis for the body-in-white is employed to predict the vibratory response of structure, and then followed by the experimental modal testing to confirm the validity of the model. Using the results of numerical simulations with the designated modal parameters, the optimal structural configuration has been deduced. Special interests have been paid to the sensitivity of sound quality to the structural integrity. Since the structural integrity has a close relationship to the structure-born noise, the substantially low frequency range, which is far below the frequency range almost barely sensible by human auditory organ but still quite influential to overall impression, is especially examined. The subjective assessment agrees with the objective evaluation by means of traditional sound measures as well as psychoacoustic metrics.

This paper proposes a robust model following control systems with nonlinear time varying plant. which realies good properties such as asymptotic stability, disturbance rejection and model-following with reduced sensitivity for plant parameter variation. The schemes do not incorporate any parameter identification algorithms, but the adaptation is realized through signal synthesis in a fixed parameter structure.

This study proposed the analysis of mass position detection and modified stiffness due to the change of the mass and stiffness of structure by using the original and modified dynamic characteristics. The method is applied to examples of a cantilever and 3 degree of freedom by modifying the mass. The predicted detection of mass positions and magnitudes are in good agrement with these from the structural reanalysis using the modified mass.

This paper introduces an expert system for the automation of power system restoration. We focus on following two points : a) Data Structure which can describe power system and ensure the efficient search and b) Restoration Strategy which performs faster black-out restoration with fewer switching operations and overload alleviation using sensitivity. Some examples are used to illustrate the capabilities of the proposed expert system.

This paper proposes a robust model following control system which realizes good properties such as asymptotic stability, disturbance rejection and model following with reduced sensitivity for plant parameter variation. This algorithm can be easily applied to the multivariable control systems and the control structure is simple. As an example the aircraft control system of a convair C-131B is designed and its characteristics are examined by simulation.

In a structural inverse problem with a limitation to the number of measuring degrees of freedom, the selection of optimal sensor locations (OSL) is critical for a good result. The current research proposes and a new OSL method and compares it with a widely used OSL method. The proposed method utilizes the sensitivity of eigenvectors with respect to the structural parameters. A simulation study for a tower structure is carried out. The structural parameters are estimated by a SI method. The influences of OSL on SI results are investigated.

Drift design using resizing techniques can be a very practical method in drift design of high-rise buildings since it cannot require sensitivity analysis and structural re-analysis. Resizing techniques has used the cross sectional areas as design variable and supposed that displacement participation factors are inversely proportional to structural weights. Efficiency of resizing techniques based on displacement participation factors may depend on proper selection of sectional properties as design variables. In this study, two different drift design methods with the different sectional properties as design variables are presented and applied to a 20-story structure.

Natural hydrology systems, including high flow and low flow events, are important for aquatic ecosystem health and are essential for controlling the structure and function of ecological processes in river ecosystems. Ecosystem responses to flow changes have been studied in a variety of ways, but little attention has been given to how episodic typhoons and atmospheric circulation patterns can change these hydrologic regime-ecological response relationships. In this diagnostic study, we use an empirical approach to investigate the salient features of interactions between atmospheric circulation, climate, and runoff in the five major Korean river basins.

Human blood consists of 55% of plasma and 45% of blood cells such as white blood cell (WBC) and red blood cell (RBC). In plasma, there are many kinds of promising biomarkers, which can be used for the diagnosis of various diseases and biological analysis. For diagnostic tools such as a lab-on-a-chip (LOC), blood plasma separation is a fundamental step for accomplishing a high performance in the detection of a disease. Highly efficient separators can increase the sensitivity and selectivity of biosensors and reduce diagnostic time. In order to achieve a higher yield in blood plasma separation, we propose a novel fluid wing structure that is optimized by COMSOL simulations by varying the fluidic channel width and the angle of the bifurcation. The fluid wing structure is inspired by the inertial particle separator system in helicopters where sand particles are prevented from following the air flow to an engine. The structure is ameliorated in order to satisfy biological and fluidic requirements at the micro scale to achieve high plasma yield and separation efficiency. In this study, we fabricated the fluid wing structure for the efficient microfluidic blood plasma separation. The high plasma yield of 67% is achieved with a channel width of $20{\mu}m$ in the fabricated fluidic chip and the result was not affected by the angle of the bifurcation.
