  • For retaining wall designs, horizontal earth pressure induced by traffic loads over the walls is calculated based on equivalent uniform pressure height. The AASHTO LRFD design standards propose equivalent uniform pressure height of traffic loads; however, the equivalent uniform pressure height is calibrated using the US standard trucks. As the domestic standard trucks are different from the US standard trucks, in this study, new domestic equivalent uniform pressure height is proposed using the Boussinesq theory varying vehicle directions, Poisson's ratios of pavement layers, and retaining wall height. The proposed equivalent uniform pressure heights are generally higher than those proposed by the AASHTO design standards because the axle loads and their densities of two domestic standard trucks are higher than those of the US standard trucks. The most highest equivalent uniform pressure height was found for traffic direction perpendicular to longitudinal direction of retaining wall.

  • In wireless sensor networks, a positioning scheme is one of core technologies for sensor applications such as disaster monitoring and environment monitoring. The One of the most positioning scheme, called DV-HOP does not consider non-uniform sensor networks that are actual distributed environments. Therefore, the accuracy of the existing positioning scheme is low in non-uniform network environments. Moreover, because it requires many anchor nodes for high accuracy in non-uniform network environments, it is expensive to construct the network. To overcome this problem, we propose a novel sensor positioning scheme using density probability models in non-uniform wireless sensor networks. The proposed scheme consists of the density probability model using the deployment characteristics of sensor nodes and the distance refinement algorithm for high accuracy. By doing so, the proposed scheme ensures the high accuracy of sensor positioning in non-uniform networks. To show the superiority of our proposed scheme, we compare it with the existing scheme. Our experimental results show that our proposed scheme improves about 44% accuracy of sensor positioning over the existing scheme on average even in non-uniform sensor networks.

  • In this paper we investigate weak convergence of the intergral processes whose index set is the non-compact infinite time interval. Our first goal is to develop the empirical central limit theorem as random elements of [0, .infty.) for an integral process which is constructed from iid variables. In developing the weak convergence as random elements of D[0, .infty.), we will use a result of Ossiander(4) whose proof heavily depends on the total boundedness of the index set. Our next goal is to establish the empirical central limit theorem for the Kaplan-Meier integral process as random elements of D[0, .infty.). In achieving the the goal, we will use the above iid result, a representation of State(6) on the Kaplan-Meier integral, and a lemma on the uniform order of convergence. The first result, in some sense, generalizes the result of empirical central limit therem of Pollard(5) where the process is regarded as random elements of D[-.infty., .infty.] and the sample paths of limiting Gaussian process may jump. The second result generalizes the first result to random censorship model. The later also generalizes one dimensional central limit theorem of Stute(6) to a process version. These results may be used in the nonparametric statistical inference.

  • Meso-scale or micro-scale forming of sheet metal parts has been recently considered as one of the important forming technologies with growing demand on meso/micro products for electric or medical devices. Experimental investigation on the cylindrical meso-cup drawing with hemispherical punch is carried out to examine the limit drawing ratio and thickness distribution of drawn cups. The working parameters chosen in this study are blank diameter, die-corner radius and blankholding force. It is found from the experiments that the limit drawing ratio of 2.4 can be achieved in the case of hemispherical cup drawing and uniform thickness distribution in wider region can be obtained compared with the results of conventional cup drawing.

  • We study the nonrelativistic limit of the Chern-Simons-Dirac system on ${\mathbb{R}}^{1+2}$. As the light speed c goes to infinity, we first prove that there exists an uniform existence interval [0, T] for the family of solutions ${\psi}^c$ corresponding to the initial data for the Dirac spinor ${\psi}_0^c$ which is bounded in $H^s$ for ${\frac{1}{2}}$ < s < 1. Next we show that if the initial data ${\psi}_0^c$ converges to a spinor with one of upper or lower component zero in $H^s$, then the Dirac spinor field converges, modulo a phase correction, to a solution of a linear $Schr{\ddot{o}}dinger$ equation in C([0, T]; $H^{s^{\prime}}$) for s' < s.

  • The limit drawing ratio (LDR) is a major process parameter in the process design of deep drawing. If the actual drawing ratio is greater than the LDR for a particular stage, then an intermediate stage has to be added to the process sequence to avoid failure during the ratio. In this study, the optimal process design considering forming limit is performed for the first-drawing and redrawing by using finite element method combined with ductile fracture criterion. The LDR and the site of fracture initiation are predicted by means of the fracture criterion. From the results of finite element analysis, the optimal value of drawing ratio is obtained, which contributes to the more uniform distribution of thickness and the smaller values of the ductile fracture in final cup.

  • A modified model combining Kriging and Monte Carlo method (MC) is proposed for probabilistic estimation of tunnel face stability in this paper. In the model, a novel uniform design is adopted to train the Kriging, instead of the existing active learning function. It has advantage of avoiding addition of new training points iteratively, and greatly saves the computational time in model training. The kinematic approach of limit analysis is employed to define the deterministic computational model of face failure, in which the Hoek-Brown failure criterion is introduced to account for the nonlinear behaviors of rock mass. The trained Kriging is used as a surrogate model to perform MC with dramatic reduction of calls to actual limit state function. The parameters in Hoek-Brown failure criterion are considered as random variables in the analysis. The failure probability is estimated by direct MC to test the accuracy and efficiency of the proposed probabilistic model. The influences of uncertainty level, correlation relationship and distribution type of random variables are further discussed using the proposed approach. In summary, the probabilistic model is an accurate and economical alternative to perform probabilistic stability analysis of tunnel face excavated in spatially random Hoek- Brown media.

  • This paper deals with the formability of DP590 steel considering the strain rate. The strain hardening coefficient, elongation and r-value were obtained from the static and dynamic tensile test. As strain rate increases from static to 100/s, the strain hardening coefficient and the uniform elongation decrease and the elongation at fracture and r-value decrease to 0.1/s and increase again to 100/s. The high speed forming limit tests with hemi-spherical punch were carried out using the high speed crash testing machine and high speed forming jig. The high speed forming limit of DP590(order of $10^2$/s) decreases compared to the static forming limit(order of $10^{-3}$/s) and the forming limit band in high speed forming test is narrower than that in the static forming test. This tendency may be due to the development of brittleness with increase of stain rate.

  • The present paper is devoted to the modeling method based on an averaging approach for thermal analysis of microchannel heat sinks subjected to the uniform wall temperature condition. Solutions for velocity and temperature distributions are presented using the averaging approach. When the aspect ratio of the microchannel is higher than 1, these solutions accurately evaluate thermal resistances of heat sinks. Asymptotic solutions for velocity and temperature distributions at the high-aspect-ratio limit are alsopresented by using the scale analysis. Asymptotic solutions are simple, but shown to predict thermal resistances accurately when the aspect ratio is higher than 10. The effects of the aspect ratio and the porosity on the friction factor and the Nusselt number are presented. Characteristics of the thermal resistance of microchannel heat sinks are also discussed.
