This paper has focused on presenting vibration analysis of trapezoidal sandwich plates with 3D-graphene foam reinforced polymer matrix composites (GrF-PMC) core and FG wavy CNT-reinforced face sheets. The porous graphene foam possessing 3D scaffold structures has been introduced into polymers for enhancing the overall stiffness of the composite structure. Also, 3D graphene foams can distribute uniformly or non-uniformly in the plate thickness direction. The effective Young's modulus, mass density and Poisson's ratio are predicted by the rule of mixture. In this study, the classical theory concerning the mechanical efficiency of a matrix embedding finite length fibers has been modified by introducing the tube-to-tube random contact, which explicitly accounts for the progressive reduction of the tubes' effective aspect ratio as the filler content increases. The First-order shear deformation theory of plate is utilized to establish governing partial differential equations and boundary conditions for trapezoidal plate. The governing equations together with related boundary conditions are discretized using a mapping-generalized differential quadrature (GDQ) method in spatial domain. Then natural frequencies of the trapezoidal sandwich plates are obtained using GDQ method. Validity of the current study is evaluated by comparing its numerical results with those available in the literature. It is explicated that 3D-GrF skeleton type and weight fraction, carbon nanotubes (CNTs) waviness and CNT aspect ratio can significantly affect the vibrational behavior of the sandwich structure. The plate's normalized natural frequency decreased and the straight carbon nanotube (w=0) reached the highest frequency by increasing the values of the waviness index (w).

In this study, we would like to state two refined results related to Hermite Hadamard type inequality for convex functions with two distinct techniques. Hence our obtained results would be better than the results already established for the class of convex functions. Applications to trapezoidal rule and special means are also discussed.

Net present value (NPV) and return on investment (ROI) are commonly used to evaluate investment in new technologies. Sometimes, however, measuring the value of investment in new IT becomes very difficult due to its wide scope of application coupled with embedded options in its adoption. Therefore, comprehensive but easily understandable methodologies are needed to solve the complicated problems resulting from the complexity of new technologies. This paper employs a real option analysis to evaluate RFID adoption in the supply chain. Real options analysis should be a better way to evaluate a disruptive technology like RFID. However, the pure (probabilistic) real option rule characterizes the present value of expected cash flows and the expected costs by a single number, which is not realistic in many cases. To solve the problem, this paper considers the real option rule in a more realistic setting, namely, when the present values of expected cash flows and expected costs are estimated by trapezoidal fuzzy numbers.

This paper has presented an application of an optimum grinding conditions based on the fuzzy logic. Fuzzy logic can handle vague and uncertain knowledge, and presents a scheme for integrating data with various kinds of grinding data. Especially, this research is capable of determining the grinding conditions taking into account some fuzzy membership function represented for trapezoidal form such as hardness and surface roughness of workpiece, material tensile strength and elongation, and requirement of grinding method. Larsen's fuzzy production method utilizing the fuzzy production rule can be applied on the establishment of grinding conditions, and also the output value obtained by the center of gravity method can effectively utilize the optimum grinding conditions.

본 연구에서는 2차원 비선형 방사문제에 대한 정확하고 효과적인 수치기법을 개발하였다. 물체운동에 의해서 생성되는 비선형파계는 이상유체라는 가정에 의하여 기술되고, 라프라스 방정식은 고차경계요소법과 GMRES(Generalized Minimal RESidual) 알고리즘을 이용하여 신속하고 효율적인 풀이가 가능하도록 하였다. 자유표면과 물체면의 교차점에서 발생하는 교차선문제는 불연속 요소를 이용하여 원활하게 해결하였다. 자유표면의 비선형운동을 기술하기 위해서 음해적 사다리꼴 법칙(implicit trapezoidal rule)을 사용하여 시적분하였다. 물체에 의해서 발생한 비선형파가 수직 하류면에서 반사하는 것을 줄이기 위하여 하류면에 수치감쇠항을 도입하였다. 수치계산 결과로부터 본 시적분법 및 수치방사조건이 비선형 방사문제에 매우 적합함을 확인하였다. 시적분 과정에서 자유표면의 격자점들을 재배치함으로써 수치해법의 효율성을 배가하였으며, 교차점근처의 유동 또한 정확하게 기술하였다. 가속도 포텐셜(acceleration potential) 기법을 이용하여 정확하고 안정하게 비선형 방사력을 구하였다. 본 수치계산결과는 다른 수치계산 및 실험결과와 비교하여 볼 때, 좋은 일치를 보인다.

Recently, the authors have developed a method for real-time dynamics of multibody systems, which combines a semi-recursive formulation to derive the equations of motion in dependent relative coordinates, along with an augmented Lagrangian technique to impose the loop closure conditions. The following numerical integration procedures, which can be grouped into the so-called structural integrators, were tested : trapezoidal rule, Newmark dissipative schemes, HHT rule, and the Generalized-${\alpha}$ family. It was shown that, for large multi body systems, Newmark dissipative was the best election since, provided that the adequate parameters were chosen, excellent behavior was achieved in terms of efficiency and robustness with acceptable levels of accuracy. In the present paper, the performance of the described method in combination with another group of integrators, the Implicit Runge-Kutta family (IRK), is analyzed. The purpose is to clarify which kind of IRK algorithms can be more suitable for real-time applications, and to see whether they can be competitive with the already tested structural family of integrators. The final objective of the work is to provide some practical criteria for those interested in achieving real-time performance for large and complex multibody systems.

In this study a truss model is used for the geometrically nonlinear static and dynamic analysis of a thin shallow arch subject to snap-through. Thanks to the very simple geometry of a truss, the equilibrium conditions can be easily written and the global stiffness matrix can be easily updated with respect to the deformed structure, within each step of the analysis. A very coarse discretization is applied; so, in a very simple way, the high frequency modes are suppressed from the beginning and there is no need to develop a complicated reduced-order technique. Two short computer programs have been developed for the geometrically nonlinear static analysis by displacement control of a plane truss model of a structure as well as for its dynamic analysis by the step-by-step time integration algorithm of trapezoidal rule, combined with a predictor-corrector technique. These two short, fully documented computer programs are applied on the geometrically nonlinear static and dynamic analysis of a specific thin shallow arch subject to snap-through.

We propose an implicit numerical implementation for the Leblond's transformation plasticity constitutive equations, which are widely used in welded steel structure. We apply generalized trapezoidal rule to integrate the equations and determine the consistent tangent moduli. The implementation may be used with updated Lagrangian formulation. We test a simple butt-welding process to compare with SYSWELD and discuss the accuracy.

인공어초에 대한 정확한 개수산정은 인공어초 사후관리사업의 필요충분조건이라 할 수 있다. 그러나, 현재까지 정립된 기준 산정방법이 없으며, 개수 산정시 필요한 실체적율 또는 0.8을 관례적으로 사용하였다. 본 연구에서는 인공어초를 투하한 직후 멀티빔에코사운더를 이용한 조사를 통하여 정확한 실체적율값을 알아보았다.
