This paper is especially concerned with the weldment between support beam and square bar that plays important roles in control box of Expansion Joint as a brdige structure. Fatigue strength ({TEX}$$\sigma$_{ult}${/TEX}) of the weldment is dependent on notch factor ({TEX}$K_{f}${/TEX}) become important factors to predict fatigue life. The fatigue notch sensitivity (η) for metals can be divided into two types ; high and low notch sensitivity. In this work, the Expansion Joint weldment was found to have low notch sensitivity. The maximum strain distribution during static loading is similar to the FEM analysis. Fatigue test of real structure was performed up to {TEX}$10^{6}${/TEX} cycles to be compared with predicted endurance limit.

The sizes of the final blades of a low-pressure (LP) steam turbine have been getting larger for the development of high-capacity power plants. They are also larger than the other blades in the same system. As a result, fatigue damage is caused by a large centrifugal force and a low natural frequency of the blade. Recently, many failure cases have been reported due to repeated turbine startups and their prolonged use. In this study, the causes and mechanism of failure of a LP turbine blade were analyzed by using a finite element method to calculate the centrifugal force, the natural frequency of a stress-stiffening effect, and the harmonic response. It was observed that the expected fatigue damage position matched the real crack position at the airfoil's leading edge, and an equivalence fatigue limit approached a notch fatigue limit.

In this paper a novel method improving the accuracy of DTMF tone reception in ARS system is proposed. ARS system should allow users to generate DTMF signals while it is sending voice guidance. It is not unocmmon, in this case, that a portion of transmitting voice signals cross-talks to the receiving channel and it often results in interfering with the receiving DTMF signals. Serious degradations including DTMF tone missing, false alarm and so forth have been introduced for the above reason. To overcome this phenomena, we have proposed a way eliminating the frequency spectra representing DTMF signals bands from the transmitting voice signal by using notch filters. This method also employs bandpass filters of which the frequency responses are reciprocal to those of the notch filters incorporated with the DTMF receiver. It is shown that a drastic improvement has been achieved with respect to the DTMF tone detection with little deterioration of voice guidance quality.

Experimental studies on the adaptive multi-mode vibration control of composite beams have been performed using neuro-controller. Neuro-controllers require too much computational burden, which blocks wide real-time applications of neuro-controllers. Therefore, in this paper, an adaptive notch filter is proposed to separate a vibration signal into each modal vibration signal. Two neuro-controllers with fewer weights are connected to the corresponding modal signals to generate proper modal control forces. The vibration controls using the adaptive notch filter and neuro-controllers have been performed for two specimens. A and B, which have different natural frequencies because of different positions of tip masses. Significant vibration reduction has been observed in both cases. The vibration control results show that the present neuro-controller has good adaptiveness under the system parameter variations.

The static strength and fatigue life of repaired graphite/epoxy laminates are observed using tensile coupon. The lay-up of investigated laminates was [$0^{\circ}$/$\pm$$45^{\circ}$/$90^{\circ}$]$_s$. Static strength was measured from the specimens prepared by various repair techniques such as precured-single patch, precured-double patch and cure-in-place methods. The strength was recovered to the extent of 60~80 % of unnotched case. Fatigue life was also measured from the laminates repaired with cure-in-place method. Hwang and Han's MFLPE 1(modified fatigue life prediction equation 1), which was based on the fatigue modulus degradation model and reference modulus, was chosen for fatigue life prediction of repaired specimen and compared with the conventional fatigue life equation such as S-N curve and Basquin's relation. The MFLPE 1 has better agreement with experimental data than S-N curve and Basquin's relation.

능동 소오나 시스템에서는 잔향음 제한 환경에서 표적 검출을 하기가 용이하지 못하다. 본 논문에서는 고정된 노치 필터로 제거할 수 없는 시 불변성의 잔향음을 효과적으로 제거할 수 있는 방법을 제안하였다. 제안된 알고리즘은 기존의 적응형 잡음 제거기가 갖고 있는 단점을 보완하기 위하여, Gram-Schmidt 직교화과정을 전처리 기법으로 사용하였다. 아울러, 제안된 잔향음 기법을 동해에서 실측한 자료에 적용함으로써 그 성능을 검증하였다.

최근에 수행된 철골모멘트 접합부의 실험 및 해석결과에 의하면, 기둥으로 각형강관을 가진 접합부가 H형강을 기둥으로 사용하는 접합부에 실험체에 비해서 조기에 스캘럽 단부에서 취성파단이 발생하는 열등한 변형능력을 나타냈다. 이는 각형강관 기둥의 면외변형에 따른 보 웨브의 모멘트 전달효율의 저하, 스캘럽이 가지는 노치효과 및 합성보의 구속효과가 주요원인으로 밝혀졌다. 실험결과는 또한 개선된 수평스티프너로 하부 플랜지를 보강한 실험체는 우수한 변형능력을 가짐을 보였다. 본 연구에서는 이러한 영향을 고려하여, 다양한 수평스티프너로 보강된 접합부에 관한 유한요소해석을 실시하였다. 해석결과를 바탕으로 파일럿 테스트를 실시한 결과, 수평스티프너로 보강된 RBS 접합부 (SR)와 연장된 수평스티프너를 가진 접합부(LH)는 우수한 변형능력을 보였다.

The purpose of this study is to propose a new Haptic Dial System (HDS) for Virtual Prototyping by developing upgraded systems and various Haptic effects. The Haptic Effect Design (HED) which gives users sensations like handling actual products has a function of controlling loudness by force and changing Haptic effects on GUI windows in real-time. In addition, the HED has another function of editing intervals to express Haptic effects as graphical force and notch on windows. Many kind of dial knob can be attached and removed easily for testing the performance of actual product designs. The HDS can be remotecontrolled through giving and taking the information between motor part and GUI part with TCP communication. The HDS can be applied to the output devices of Haptic effects as well as input-interfaces.

The purpose of this study is evaluating the characteristics of tensile strength of UHPC and examining tensile performance of notched specimens by direct tensile test. For test variables, 120, 150, and 180MPa of target design standard strength were aimed at. With general water curing and $90^{\circ}C$ high temperature steam as curing conditions, the properties were reviewed. Overall, it was represented that the specimens of notch-type direct tensile strength concrete was effective in inducing central cracks compared with existing direct tension specimens. Through this, it was judged that data construction with high reliability was possible. Above all, in a graph of direct tensile strength and strain, in the case of steam curing at high temperature, there was great difference of initial tensile strength compared with water curing. As passing of ages, an aspect that the difference gradually decreased was shown. Maximum tensile strength was found to increase steadily with increasing age for all target design strengths in water curing, in the case of steam curing, the tendency to increase significantly due to the initial strength development effect at 7 days of age. The initial crack strength increases with age in case of underwater curing, in the case of steam curing, it was higher than that of water curing in 7 days, while the strength of 28 days was lowered. In this part, it is considered necessary to examine the arrangement condition of the steel fiber.
