In this paper, the dynamic response of non-uniform beams subjected to a travelling mass is investigated. Dynamic behaviors of flexible beam structures under a moving mass have been a concern in the design of bridges, ceiling crain in industry, as well as gun barrel fields. Most of studies for moving mass problems have been related to the theoretical dynamic responses of a simple beam model with uniform cross-sections. In some experimental studies, only a few transverse inertia effects due to travelling mass have been studied so far. The intended aim of the present Paper is to investigate the dynamic response of non-uniform beams taking into account of inertia force. centrifugal force, Coriollis force and self weight due to travelling mass. Galerkin's mode summation method is applied for the discretized equations of motion. Numerical results for the dynamic response of non-uniform beams under a travelling mass are demonstrated for various magnitudes and velocities of the travelling mass. In order to verify propriety of numerical solutions, experiments were conducted. Experimental resu1ts have a good agreement wish theoretical Predictions.

The paper presents free vibration and stability analyses of a non-uniform Timoshenko beam resting on a two-parameter elastic soil. The soil parameters can vary along the spat and is assumed to be two-parameter model including the effects of both transverse shear deformation and elastic foundation Governing equations related to the vibration and the stability of the beam are derived from Hamilton's principle, and the resulting eigen-value problems can be solved to give natural frequencies and critical force by finite element method. Numerical results for both vibration and stability of beams under an axial force are presented and compared with other available solutions. Finally, vibration frequencies, mode shapes and critical forces are investigated for various thickness ratios, shear foundation parameter, Winkler foundation parameter and boundary conditions of tapered Timoshenko beams.

Space Physics Sensor onboard the KOMPSAT-1, which was launched at 1999, had transmitted ionospheric data during the solar maximum from June 2000 to August 2001. When the KOMPSAT-1 has passed the equatorial region, equatorial bubbles, in which the electron density abruptly decreases, had frequently been detected. Statistical analysis of the data obtained during the entire operational period shows equatorial bubbles frequently occur across the Atlantic region where the geomagnetic field strength is weak. Also, equatorial bubbles occur more frequently for lower Kp index. The results are in good agreement with the previous observations by DMSP satellites and radio experiments at the Peruvian sector The correlation between electron density and the electron temperature shows various behaviors from event to event.

Image depth estimation is a technology that is the basis of various image analysis. As analysis methods using deep learning models emerge, studies using deep learning in image depth estimation are being actively conducted. Currently, most deep learning-based depth estimation models are being trained with clean and ideal images. However, due to the lack of data on adverse conditions such as haze or fog, the depth estimation may not work well in such an environment. It is hard to sufficiently secure an image in these environments, and in particular, obtaining non-homogeneous haze data is a very difficult problem. In order to solve this problem, in this study, we propose a method of synthesizing non-homogeneous haze images and a learning method for a monocular depth estimation deep learning model using this method. Considering that haze mainly occurs outdoors, datasets mainly containing outdoor images are constructed. Experiment results show that the model with the proposed method is good at estimating depth in both synthesized and real haze data.

For the purpose of controlling the release of radioiodine to the environment in nuclear power plants, adsorption characteristics of elemental iodine and methyl iodide on the base carbon and 2%, 5% TEDA impregnated carbons were studied. The amounts of adsorption of elemental iodine and methyl iodide on the carbons were compared with Langmuir, Freundlich, Sips and Dubinin-Astakhov(DA) isotherm equations. Adsorption data were well correlated by the DA equation based on the potential theory. Adsorption energy distributions were obtained from the parameters of the DA equation derived from the condensation approach method. For the adsorption of methyl iodide and elemental iodine-carbon system, the DA equation can be well expressed by the degree of heterogeneity of the micropore system because the surface is nonuniform when its potential energy is unequal. The adsorption energy distribution wes investigated to find a surface heterogeneity on the carbon. The surface heterogeneity for iodine-carbon system is highly affected by the adsorbate-adsorbent interaction as well as the pore structure. The surface heterogeneity increases as a content of TEDA impregnated increases. The adsorption nature of methyl iodide on carbon turned out to be more heterogeneous than that of elemental iodine.

The present paper proposes a modal analysis procedure to obtain exact modal parameters (natural frequencies, damping ratios, eigenvectors) for general, non-uniform beam-like structures. The proposed method includes a derivation of the system dynamic matrix for a Timoshenko beam element. The proposed method provides not only exact modal parameters but also exact frequency response functions (FRFs) for general beam structures. A time domain analysis method is also proposed. Two examples are provided for validating and illustrating the proposed method. The first numerical example compares the proposed method with FEM. The second example deals with a non-uniform beam structure supported in joints with damping property. The numerical study proves that the proposed method is useful for the dynamic analysis of continuous systems consisting of beam-like structures.

Purpose : The objective of this study was to develop background gradient correction method using excitation pulse profile compensation for accurate fat and $T_2{^*}$ quantification in the liver. Materials and Methods: In liver imaging using gradient echo, signal decay induced by linear background gradient is weighted by an excitation pulse profile and therefore hinders accurate quantification of $T_2{^*}$and fat. To correct this, a linear background gradient in the slice-selection direction was estimated from a $B_0$ field map and signal decays were corrected using the excitation pulse profile. Improved estimation of fat fraction and $T_2{^*}$ from the corrected data were demonstrated by phantom and in vivo experiments at 3 Tesla magnetic field. Results: After correction, in the phantom experiments, the estimated $T_2{^*}$ and fat fractions were changed close to that of a well-shimmed condition while, for in vivo experiments, the background gradients were estimated to be up to approximately 120 ${\mu}T/m$ with increased homogeneity in $T_2{^*}$ and fat fractions obtained. Conclusion: The background gradient correction method using excitation pulse profile can reduce the effect of macroscopic field inhomogeneity in signal decay and can be applied for simultaneous fat and iron quantification in 2D gradient echo liver imaging.

Torsional characteristics of nonuniform circular waveguides were studied experimentally by using an in-plane laser vibrometer. The circumferential displacement along the axis of a rod was measured as a response of the torsional oscillation excited at one end of the rod. The experimental results obtained for a stepped circular rod and a conically-tapered rod were compared with theoretical predictions. The results of this paper show the possibility of using the in-plane laser vibrometer for the measurement of torsional vibrations.

국내 저온저장고의 주류를 이루고 있는 컨테이너 박스형 저온저장고의 문제점은 재래식 제어방식으로 인한 성능저하 외에도 자체 구조적인 설계상의 문제점을 가지고 있다 이러한 구조적인 문제점을 열거하면 다음과 같다. 첫째, 한 축 방향에 설치되어있는 유니트 쿨러에서 토출되는 냉기에 의해 저장고 내의 공기를 냉각하는 형태이기 때문에 냉기의 분포가 고르지 못하여 균일한 온도 분포를 이루기 어렵다는 단점을 가지고있다. 둘째, 한 축 방향에서 토출되는 냉기가 맞은 편 벽면까지 도달해야 하기 때문에 풍속이 강해야 하며 이로 인해 저장 청과물이 냉해를 쉽게 입고 심한 증산작용에 의해 쉽게 표면건조나 중량감소를 가져온다. 셋째, 천장부와 측벽부가 90$^{\circ}$의 경사각을 가지고 있어 공기의 유동이 원활하지 못하여 에디현상으로 인한 온도나 풍속의 불균일 구간을 피해서 청과물을 저장해야 하기 때문에 그만큼 버려지는 공간이 많아 비경제적이다. 넷째, 위와 같은 문제점들 때문에 중ㆍ대형의 저온저장고를 컨테이너 박스형으로 설비 할 경우 보다 심한 온도 불균일과 냉기유동 분포를 보여 경제적인 손실이 더 커지게 되는 악순환을 낳게된다. 이에 따라 본 연구에서는 국내 저온저장고의 구조적인 설계상의 문제점을 인식하고 이를 해결하고자 3차원 CFD 시뮬레이션을 이용하여 저온저장고의 새로운 모델을 설계하였다. 이론 바탕으로 직접 저온저장고의 시작기를 개발하여 저장고 내부의 역 유동과 난류유통을 해석하였다.

In this study, we propose a new efficient 2-noded hybrid-mixed element for curved beam vibrationshaving a uniform and non-uniform cross section. The present element considering transverse shear strain is based on Hellinger-Reissner variational principle and introduces additional nodeless degrees for displacement field interpolation in order to enhance the numerical performance. The stress parameters are eliminated by the stationary condition and then the nodeless degrees are condensed out by the Guyan reduction. In the performance evaluation process of the present field-consistent higher-order element, we carefully examine the effects of field consistency and the role of higher-order interpolation functions on the hybrid-mixed formulation. Several benchmark tests confirm e superior behavior of the present hybrid-mixed element for curved beam vibrations.
