As a new structural system, the diagrid system resists both gravity and lateral loads with diagonal columns. In current seismic design provisions, however, the response modification factor for a new structural system is not provided yet. ATC-63 provides a new methodology for defining various seismic performance factors, including the response modification factor. ATC-63 includes the collapse margin ratio in modifying the response modification factor, which can vary with many structural systems. In this paper, a non-linear static analysis and a dynamic analysis were conducted for four different diagrid models with 4-to 36-story heights. From these analyses, the response modification factor of the diagrid system was evaluated.

Various PSC and steel-concrete composite railway bridges are being developed for short-medium spans with structural and economic efficiency. According to the design concept, the prestressed composite girder bridge has the advantages of being lightweight and having low girder depth, with the capacity for long spans. However, the dynamic behavior under a passing train is one of the critical issues concerning these railway bridges designed with more flexibility. Therefore, it is very important to evaluate the modal parameters before performing dynamic analyses. In this paper, real-scale prestressed composite girders were fabricated as a test model and modal testing was carried out to evaluate modal parameters including natural frequency and modal damping ratio. During the modal testing, a digitally controlled vibration exciter as well as an impact hammer was applied to obtain frequency-response functions, and the modal parameters were also evaluated after the fracture of test models. With application of reliable properties from modal tests, the estimation of dynamic performances of prestressed composite girder railway bridges can be obtained from various parametric studies on dynamic behavior under the passage of a moving train.

In this study the progressive collapse potential of braced frames were investigated using the nonlinear static and dynamic analyses. All of nine different brace types were considered along with a special moment-resisting frame for comparison. According to the pushdown analysis results, most braced frames designed per current design codes satisfied the design guidelines for progressive collapse initiated by loss of a first story mid-column; however most model structures showed brittle failure mode. This was caused by buckling of columns after compressive braces buckled. Among the braced frames considered, the inverted- V type braced frames showed superior ductile behavior during progressive collapse. The nonlinear dynamic analysis results showed that all the braced frame model structures remained in stable condition after sudden removal of a column, and their deflections were less than that of the moment-resisting frame.

Focal zone and 4 mm functional resolution in the two items that are not present the passing standard. 3. The difference was statistically significant number of years and used equipment and pass the failed equipment (4.13 vs 7.25 years). We investigated the performance status of US equipment used in the clinical area in Daegu. The basis for the two items are not present this proposed passing standard. Equipment performance was associated with the number of years of using US equipment. It is necessary to maintain the best performance of the equipment phantom measurements for performance testing of US equipment.

본 논문에서는 새로운 내용기반 이미지 검색 기법으로 식물 잎의 윤곽선에 대하여 동적 시간 정합 기법을 이용하여 유사한 이미지를 효과적으로 검색하는 방법을 제안한다. 이를 위하여 우선 식물 잎의 기준점에 대하여 잎의 가장자리를 따라 가면서 구해지는 거리의 곡선을 통하여 잎의 외형 특성을 표현하였다. 추출된 곡선 정보의 효율적인 저장과 처리를 위하여 곡선의 특성을 표현할 수 있는 퓨리에 계수(Fourier Coefficients)를 계산하고 이를 바탕으로 유사한 이미지를 계산하였다. 이런 과정에서 생기는 문제점으로는 복잡한 형태의 곡선에 대해서는 퓨리에 계수를 통하여 저장하고 복원하는 과정에서 원본 곡선의 세부적인 형태 정보를 상실하게 된다. 이러한 문제를 해결하기 위해서는 복잡한 곡선 유형에 대해서는 복원시 상실되는 정보가 최소화될 수 있는 작은 단위의 구간으로 나누고 이에 대한 퓨리에 계수를 계산하는 방법으로 다수의 퓨리에 계수 세트를 추출하는 이진 구간 분할 (Binary Range Reduction) 알고리즘을 사용하였고 질의 이미지와 저장된 이미지들을 비교하는 과정에서 검색의 정확도를 향상시키기 위하여 동적 시간 정합(Dynamic Time Warping) 알고리즘을 사용하였다. 그리고 검색의 효율을 더욱 높이기 위하여 추출된 외형 정보를 기반으로 잎의 유형을 다양한 카테고리로 분류하는 외형 기형 기반의 잎 분류 기법을 제안하였다. 다양한 실험을 통하여 제안한 기법이 식물 잎 검색에 우수한 성능을 나타냄을 보인다.

최근 소셜 미디어를 이용한 대량의 데이터로부터 사용자의 의사결정을 지원하기위한 맞춤형 데이터 추천 서비스가 관심을 받고 있으며 사용자의 선호도에 근접한 데이터 추천기법으로 스카이라인 질의가 연구되어왔다. 그러나 기존의 스카이라인 질의는 데이터의 정적속성(위도, 경도, 가격 등)만을 기준으로 모든 사용자에게 동일한 데이터를 반환하기 때문에 맞춤형 데이터를 추천하기 어렵다. 본 논문에서는 사용자의 기호에 대한 정밀도를 높이기 위해 정적속성에서 동적속성(계산속성)을 유도하는 분기한정 동적 스카이라인 질의 기법(Branch and Bound Dynamic Skyline, BBDS)을 구현하였다. 시뮬레이션에서는 대규모 데이터 및 다양한 분포에 따른 실험을 수행한 결과 BBDS가 기존 기법에 비해 데이터 탐색과 추천에 있어서 향상된 성능을 나타내는 것으로 평가되었다.

Network RTK is widely used especially for static applications so far, however, the demand for high accuracy positioning for kinetic users such as land vehicles is growing for safety and convenience reasons. Kinematic users move along the roads and the network where they receive corrections can be changed. Compact Network RTK corrections should keep consistency while network change. In this paper, we introduced a method of generating Compact Network RTK corrections considering network ambiguity level adjustment by formulation of corrections. We verified the proposed method for reference station networks across whole country. We also generated Compact Network RTK corrections using simulation and real GPS data from reference stations in South Korea and evaluated performance of users. As a result, the discontinuity between corrections from two networks reduced to 0.25 cycle from several cycles. And user could achieve less than 8 cm (2DRMS) horizontal position accuracy continuously regardless of network change.

In this paper, we proposed a new dynamic channel allocation algorithm for TD-SCDMA with cross time slots. In order to reduce the interference in cross time slot, the mobile stations (MSs) are divided into two groups: the Near Group consisting of MSs near by the base station(BS) and the Far Group including the MSs far from the BS. The reverse link for MSs in the Near Group and forward link for MSs in the Far Group are allocated to the cross time slot. In cellular systems, a BS has multiple neighbor BSs. Some of neighbor BSs can operate in the same direction link while the others have cross time slot. Thus, it is required to determine which BS has the most significant impact in terms of interference. We divide each cell into 6 areas based on the direction of arrival of smart antenna and the most significant neighbor sector is determined with this division. The proposed allocation method and area division method can avoid the severe interference in cross time slots and increase the system capacity about 2%~9% compared to FCA, and 0.5%~1.3% compared to RCA.

Recently, apartment designs are tend to be changed from the standard pattern by many causes and the beam-column structures are getting popular instead of wall structure system. Therefore, for the effective use of planed space the heights of apartment are tend to be higher and higher. According to Korea Building Code, earthquake resistance designs or seismic design for those high rise apartments must be more attentive and accurate, especially, dynamic periods of structures must be exactly measured, because those are very important for equivalent static analysis. The important subject of this study is to investigate the safety factors and seismic performance for natural period of high rise buildings by comparing the natural periods getting from ambient vibration method with those of Korea Building Code.

There have been many researches applying GMDH for modelling nonlinear dynamic systems. However, these methods require a great amount of computation in return of the accuracy. Thus, in this paper, we propose a method to reduce the amount of computation in GMDH by adjusting the adopting criterion of input data in decrement while at least maintaining the accuracy. The simulation result verifies that the proposed method can successfully reduce the amount of computation without the expense of the error rate, if not significantly better.
