A method for nonstationary response analysis of an offshore guyed tower subjected to earthquake loading is presented. The nonstationarity of the earthquake excitation is modeled by imposing a time varying envelope function onto a stationary random model. By taking the envelope function and the auto-correlation function of ground acceleration in terms of complex exponential functions of time, an analytical procedure is developed for computing time varying variances of the tower response. Example analysis indicates that the maximum responses estimated by considering nonstationary effect properly are significantly less than those obtained by the conventional frequency domain analysis method based upon the stationary assumption.

In this paper, we propose the initial optimized structure of the Radial Basis Function Network(RBFN) which is more simple in the part of the structure and converges more faster than Neural Network. For this, we use the analysis method using time frequency localization and we can decide the initial structure of the RBFN suitable for the given problem. When we compose the hidden nodes with the radial basis functions whose localization are similar with the target function in the plane of the time and frequency, we can make a good decision of the initial structure having an ability of approximation.

In the ubiquitous environment, there has been a problem of transmitting data from various sensors at a long distance. Especially, in the process of integrating data arriving at different locations, data having different property values of data or having some loss in data had to be processed. This paper present a method to analyze such data. The core of this method is to define an objective function suitable for the problem and to develop an algorithm that can optimize this objective function. The objective function is used by modifying the OCS function. MFA (Mean Field Annealing), which was able to process only binary data, is extended to be applicable to fields with continuous values. It is called CMFA and used as an optimization algorithm.

It is well known that spectral density function determines auto-covariance function of stationary time-series data and smoothed periodogram is a consistent estimator of spectral density function. Recently, Kim and Park (2007) showed that smoothed- periodogram based distances performs very well for the classification. In this paper, we introduce classification methods with smoothed periodogram and apply the approaches to the monthly precipitation measurements obtained from January, 1987 through December, 2007 at 22 locations in South Korea.

This paper deals with behaviors of Poisson's ratio with water content through uniaxial compressive strength against 307 individual rock cores, which are classified into sedimentary, igneous and metamorphic rock. Poissons' ratio demonstrates independent behaviors and does not correlate with mechanical and physical parameter of rocks. The water content behavior of Poissson's ratio represents decrease, increase and random style. Rock samples with decreasing behavior demonstrate absolute preponderance above the 70% level. As Poisson' ratio shows independent behaviors, it should be considered based on experimental results of in-situ rock in the process of design, construction, and supervision.

최근 자연재난으로 인한 인명피해는 감소하는 추세를 나타내고 있으나, 기후변화 및 도시화 등으로 인해 재산피해는 점차 증가하고 있는 실정이다. 기존의 연구는 재난이 일어난 후 사후복구차원에서 피해액을 집계하거나 복구비를 추정하는 연구가 주를 이루고 있으며, 재난이 발생하기 전에 피해액을 추정하는 연구는 매우 미흡한 실정이다. 따라서 본 연구에서는 과거 통계자료를 기반으로 인공신경망과 다중회귀분석을 이용하여 전체 자연재난 피해액의 약 95%를 차지하는 호우피해액을 예측하기 위한 피해함수 개발하고자 한다. 대상지역으로는 경기도 지역으로 선정하였고, 1994년부터 2015년까지의 수문기상자료와 시군구별 재해통계자료를 수집하여 분석을 위한 함수개발을 위한 자료로 재구축하였다. 또한 시간별 최대 강우량과 피해액에 대한 상관분석을 실시하여 지속시간별(1~24시간) 최대강우 자료와 재해기간별 선행강우(1~5일)자료, 그리고 재해기간의 총강우량 자료가 상관성이 높다는 것을 파악했다. 이를 독립변수로 활용하고, 재해기간별 피해액을 종속변수로 사용하여 지역별 호우피해 예측함수를 개발하였다. 본 연구는 효율적이고, 효과적으로 재해예방을 위한 방재체계를 수립하는데 기초자료로 활용될 것으로 판단되며, 사전대비 차원의 재난관리를 통해 정책결정권자들의 의사결정에도 도움을 줄 수 있다고 판단된다.

In this paper, main particulars of a ship are optimized by the multiobjective optimization method which can offer more information to designer. To analyze the effect of a ship building cost and operating cost in the optimum design of a ship, the multiobjective optimization is performed with objective functions of building and operating costs. And Required Freight Rate(RFR) is also calculated as dependent variable. The design model was developed for the Liquefied Natural Gas(LNG) carrier with longer operating distance. The LNG carrier has some characteristics such as higher speed and building cost in comparison with other commercial ships.

For the purpose of image analysis, we usually take the application method relying on the various mathematical theories. On the respect of image as two variable function one may uses the gradient vector or several type of energy functions induced by the conventional (partial) derivative. We also have used the tangent plane or curvature vector from the concept of differential geometry {**]. However, these mathematical tools my assume that the given function should be sufficiently smoothing enough to depict every local variation continuously. But the real application of these mathematical methods to the natural images or phenomena may occur the ill-posed problem. In this paper, we have defined the weak derivative as a loose form of the derivative so that it my applied to the irregular case with less ill-posed problem.

Seismic fragility functions are derived for probabilistic evaluation of seismic control performance of energy dissipation devices installed in reinforced concrete structures. Displacement-dependent dampers are added to the nonlinear single-degree-of-freedom systems with different natural periods and hysteretic characteristics of which stiffness and strength has uncertainty. Nonlinear time history analysis is conducted for those SDOF systems and the result is processed statistically to obtain seismic fragility functions in the form of log normal distribution. Variation of seismic fragility functions for different parameters of SDOF systems and dampers are investigated and the seismic control performance is assessed probabilistically.

This paper describes two algorithms for technology mapping of multiple output functions into interesting and popular FPGAs (Field Programmable Gate Arrays) that lise look-up table memories. For improvement of technology mapping for FPGA, we use the functional decomposition method for multiple output functions. Two algorithms are proposed. The one is the Roth-Karp algorithm extended for multiple output functions. The other is the novel and efficient algorithm which looks for common decomposition functions through the decomposition procedure. The cost function is used to minimize the number of CLBs and nets and to improve performance of the network. Finally we compare our new algorithm with previous logic design technique. Experimental results show significant reduction in the number of CLBs and nets.
