Elasto-plastic finite element analysis of geotechnical boundary value problems necessitate the stress integration for the known strain increments. For the elasto-plastic constitutive model, the stress integration is generally achieved by numerical schemes, because analytical integration is impossible for general strain path. In this case, the accuracy of numerical stress integration has an important role on the overall accuracy of nonlinear finite element solution. In this study, the Sloan's substepping method which is one of explicit integration methods has been adopted and iris applicability has been checked. The unstability and inaccuracy of ifs results initiated from initial stress level were revealed. So. a new modified numerical integration method which employs the basic concept of modified Euler scheme for error control is proposed and accuracy and stability of the solutions are confirmed by triaxial test simulation.

This paper describes a reinforced concrete crack model, which utilizes a strain decomposition technique. The strain decomposition technique enables the explicit inclusion of physical behavior across the cracked concrete surface such as aggregate interlock and dowel action rather than intuitively defining the shear retention factor. The proposed concrete crack model is integrated into the commercial finite element software ABAQUS shell elements through a user-supplied material subroutine. The FE results have been compared to experimental results reported by other researchers. The proposed bridge FE model is capable of predicting the initial cracking load level, the ultimate load capacity, and the crack pattern with good accuracy.

본 논문에서는 문서 위의 문자를 Off-Line방식으로 컴퓨터에 저장할 수 있도록 기하학적 패턴 벡터를 이용하여 한·영문자 및 글꼴을 인식하는 알고리즘을 제안하였다. 일반적으로 문서에서는 여러 가지 글꼴에 따라 글자의 형태가 다르므로 대표적인 한·영 세 가지 글꼴을 기하학적 패턴(Geometrical Pattern Vector)을 이용하여 크기와 이동에 인식하도록 하였다. 이진 입력 한영혼용 영상에서 잡음을 제거하고 수평·수직 투영 기법을 이용하여 한 문자를 분할하여 문자의 폭에 따라 기하학적 패턴을 추출한다. 추출한 패턴은 각 합계를 계산하여 기준 패턴 합계와 비교한 후 기준 패턴 문자와 글꼴을 인식하게 된다. 마지막으로 제안한 알고리즘의 성능을 평가하기 위해 크기, 이동 변형이 있는 대표적인 한·영 글꼴(신명조, 궁서, 고딕)체와 영어 Time New Roman체를 대상으로 모의 실험을 수행하였다. 제안한 알고리즘은 기존의 원형 패턴 알고리즘보다 문자인식률과 글꼴 그리고 영어의 대·소문자를 구별하는 우수함을 보였다.

본 논문에서는 기존의 2차원 영상/비디오 압축 기술을 홀로그램의 특성에 적합하게 변형시켜서 홀로그램 데이터를 압축하는 압축 기법을 제안하였다. 컴퓨터 생성 홀로그램(computer generated holograms, CGH) 기법을 이용해 생성한 디지털 홀로그램을 사용하였다. 본 논문에서는 전처리된 디지털 홀로그램에 대해 분할, 주파수 변환, 움직임 예측과 주파수 영역에서의 잔여영상 생성 기법을 적용하여 데이터 압축을 수행한다. 압축은 H.264/AVC, 무손실 압축기법인 BinHex와, 선형 양자화를 이용하였고, 실험 결과를 보면 제안한 데이터 압축 기법은 전체 압축률이 10:1~90:1까지 변화함에따라 25.4dB~16.5dB로 감소함을 확인할 수 있다. 그러나 시각적인 영상의 품질은 앞서 제시한 PSNR값 보다 훨씬 우수함을 확인 할 수 있다.

This paper presents a new neural network based on fuzzy set and its application to invariant character recognition. The fuzzy neural network consists of five layers. The results of simulation show that the network can recognize characters in the case of distortion, translation, rotation and different sizes of handwritten characters and even with noise(8${\sim}$30%)). Translation, distortion, different sizes and noise are achieved by layer L2 and rotation invariant by layer L5. The network can recognize 108 examples of training with 100% recognition rate when they are shifted in eight directions by 1 pixel and 2 pixels. Also, the network can recognize all the distorted characters with 100% recognition rate. The simulations show that the test patterns cover a ${\pm}20^{\circ}$ range of rotation correctly. The proposed network can also recall correctly all the learned characters with 100% recognition rate. The proposed network is simple and its learning and recall speeds are very fast. This network also works for the segmentation and recognition of handwritten characters.

Fiber optic sensor using fiber Bragg grating(FBG) probes is used for monitoring strain and temperature distributed on the wide surfaces of large structures. In this paper, in order to use many FBG probes in one optical fiber line, we propose a complex multiplexing technology which is composed of two techniques, one is time division multiplexing and another is wavelength division multiplexing. However, we only investigate the characteristics of time division multiplexing because FBG sensors basically can be operated by wavelength division multiplexing. We calculate the optimal reflectivities and the lengthwise location of five FBG probes in serial connection in order to obtain the unique reflected intensities from the FBG probes. We fabricate five FBG probes with the reflectivities of 13%, 16%, 25%, 40% and 80%, which are determined by the theoretical calculation, and observe the signal reflected from each FBG in the time domain from the experiment. There are differences between experimental and theoretical results caused by the signal noise and the differences of reflectivities of FBG probes. But the experimental results shows the reflected signals of five FBG probes which prove the availability of complex multiplexing.

An analytical method to predict the time dependent flexural behavior of composite girder is presented based on sectional analysis. The time dependent constitutive relation accounting for the early-age concrete properties including maturing of elastic modulus, creep and shrinkage is derived in an incremental format by the first order Taylor series expansion. The sectional analysis calculates the axial and curvature strains based on the force and moment equilibriums. The deflection curve of the girder approximated by the quadratic polynomial function is calculated by applying to the proper boundary conditions in the consecutive segments. Numerical applications are made for the 3-span double composite steel box girder which is a composite bridge girder filled with concrete at the bottom of the steel box in the negative moment region. The calculated results are compared with those by finite element analysis results. Close agreement is observed between the two approaches.

For mechanical system operating at high temperature, damage due to the interaction effect of creep and fatigue plays an important role. The objective of this paper is to develop a modified creep-fatigue damage model which separately analyzes the pure creep damage for hold time and the creep-fatigue interaction damage during startup and shutdown period. The creep damage was calculated by the general creep damage equation and the creep-fatigue interaction damage was calculated by the modified equation which is based on the frequency modified strain range method with strain rate term. In order to verify the proposed model, a service of high temperature low cycle fatigue tests were performed. The test specimens were made from inconel-718 superalloy and the test parameters were wave shape and hold time. A good agreement between the predicted lives based on the proposed model and experimentally obtained ones was observed.

In this paper, a new adaptive resource allocation scheme is proposed in orthogonal frequency-division multiple access(OFDMA) systems with rate proportionality constraints. The problem of maximizing the overall system capacity with constraints on bit error rate, total transmission power and rate-proportionality for user requiring different classes of service is formulated. Since the optimal solution to the constrained fairness problem is extremely complex to obtain, a low-complexity suboptimal algorithm that separates subchannel allocation and power allocation is proposed. Firstly, the number of subchannels to be assigned to each user is determined based on the users' average signal-to-noise ratio and rate-proportion. Subchannels are subsequently distributed according to the modified max-min criterion. Lastly, based on the subchannel allocation, the optimal power allocation by solving the Language dual problem is proposed. Additionally, in order to reduce the computational complexity, iterative rate proportionality tracking algorithm is proposed for maximizing the capacity together with maintaining the rate proportionality constraint.
