Since clear span-to-depth ratio is used to define what is so called a deep beam, it is an important parameter ratio for study about deep beam. Deep beams can be designed by flexure design method, and shear provided by concrete ($v_c$) and by steel ($v_s$) for deep flexure members are provided in ACI 318-99 [1]. But in later version of ACI (from ACI 318-02) it is not provided and deep beams shall be designed either by taking into account nonlinear distribution of strain or by Appendix A of Strut-and-Tie Models (STM). The trend of deep beam design seems to be familiar with strut-and-tie model, but ACI traditional design is not forgotten. By comparing these two method, there should a point which definitely explain the different between the two methods. In this study, 68 samples result of steel, after reinforcement arrangement, are taken to be analyzed.

This paper presents the numerical results of six corrugation models which compute the stress behaviours and stress levels of the membrane structure under the hydrostatic pressure of cryogenic liquids and thermal loadings using a non -linear finite element analysis program. A three-dimensional analysis of various corrugation geometries was performed on the maximum mean normal stress distributions along the upper surface of the membrane sheet. Comparisons of the FEM results for various geometry models of the corrugation are presented, which shows that the corrugated configuration of the ring knot model can be effectively performed for the combined forces such as the hydrostatic pressure and thermal loading in comparison with the Technigaz type corrugation which has small comer and apex curvatures. The FEM results show that the ring knot corrugation can be used for the deepest depth, 180m of the LNG storage tank in comparison with other corrugation models.

Because a hydraulic actuator has high power and force densities, this allows the weight of the robot's limbs to be reduced. This allows for good dynamic characteristics and high energy efficiency. Thus, hydraulic actuators are used in some exoskeleton robots and quadrupedal robots that require high torque. Force control is useful for robot compliance with a user or environment. However, force control of a hydraulic robot is difficult because a hydraulic servo system is highly nonlinear from a control perspective. In this study, a nonlinear model was used to develop a simulation program for a hydraulic servo system consisting of a servo valve, transmission lines, and a cylinder. The problems and considerations with regard to the force control performance for a hydraulic servo system were investigated. A force control method using the nonlinear model was proposed, and its effect was evaluated with the simulation program.

The ultimate behavior of reinforced concrete corbel is complicated due to the primary design variables including the shear span-to-effective depth ratio a/d, flexural reinforcement ratio, load condition, and material properties. In this study, a simple indeterminate strut-tie model reflecting all characteristics of the ultimate strength and complicated structural behavior is proposed for the design of the reinforced concrete corbels with shear span-to-effective depth ratio of $a/d{\leq}1$. A load distribution ratio, defined as the fraction of applied load transferred by horizontal truss mechanism, is also proposed to help structural designers perform the design of reinforced concrete corbels by using the strut-tie model approaches of current design codes. For the development of the load distribution ratio, numerous material nonlinear finite element analyses of the proposed indeterminate strut-tie model were conducted by changing primary design variables. The ultimate strengths of reinforced concrete corbels tested to failure were evaluated by incorporating the proposed strut-tie model and load distribution ratio into the ACI 318-11's strut-tie model method. The validity of the proposed model and load distribution ratio was examined by comparing the strength analysis results with those by the ACI 318-11's conventional design method and strut-tie model methods of current design codes.

전력 계통이 거대화되고 그 복잡성이 증가함에 따라 계통의 안정적인 운용을 위하여, 다양한 안정도 해석에 대한 요구가 제기되고 있다. 이에 따라 실시간 시뮬레이터를 이용한 계통의 과도현상 해석에 대한 연구 역시 증가하고 있는데, 이는 대규모 비선형 계통을 대상으로 할 경우 H/W의 제약으로 인해 현실적으로 많은 제한을 받는다. 하지만 FACTS등 새롭게 계통에 연계되는 전력 설비의 성능 검증 및 사례 연구를 위해서는 이러한 실시간 시뮬레이터를 이용한 실제 계통에 대한 다양한 과도현상 모의 및 해석이 필요하다. 이에 본 연구에서는 UPFC, SVC등 FACTS 기기가 포함된 한전의 실제 전력 계통을 대상으로 등가화 및 계통 축약 기법을 이용하여 해당 계통의 동적/정적 특성을 반영할 수 있는 등가계통을 PSS/E상에서 개발하고, 등가 계통과 실 계통에 대한 다양한 모의를 통해 그 타당성을 검증하였다. 이렇게 개발된 등가 계통 모델은 각 FACTS 기기에 대해 독립된 모델 계통으로 실시간 시뮬레이터를 이용한 FACTS 기기의 성능 검증 및 평가에 활용될 수 있을 것이다.

광적응(Luminance Adaptation; LA) 효과는 영상의 배경 밝기에 따른 왜곡에 대한 시각 인지 민감도가 달라지는 특성을 의미한다. 기존 영상 화질 측정(Image Quality Assessment; IQA) 방법들은 베버의 법칙(Weber' s law) 모델을 이용하여 LA 효과를 IQA 방법에 반영해왔다. 그러나, 이러한 IQA 방법들에 있어서 베버의 법칙 기반 LA 효과 모델은 다음 두 가지 이유로 부정확하게 동작한다: (i) 전통적인 베버의 법칙 모델은 실제 광도(luminance)에 대한 인지 민감도 응답값을 정확히 반영할 수 없다는 것이 밝혀졌다, (ii) 대부분 IQA 방법들은 픽셀 강도 영역에서 계산되지만, 베버의 법칙과 같은 LA 효과 모델들은 광도 영역에서 개발되었다. 따라서 광도와 픽셀 강도간 비선형 관계로 인해 IQA 방법에 반영된 베버의 법칙 기반 LA 효과 모델들은 부정확하게 동작한다. 이 문제를 해결하기 위해, 본 논문에서 처음으로 픽셀 강도 영역에서의 LA 모델을 이론적으로 유도한다. 본 논문에서 제안하는 픽셀 강도 영역에서의 LA 효과 모델은 감마 교정 함수(Gamma correction function)와 광도 영역에서의 LA 효과 모델인 제곱-법칙(power-law) 모델을 기반으로 하는 테일러 급수 확장 근사화를 통해 유도된다. 제안하는 픽셀 강도 영역 LA 효과 모델의 효과를 검증하기 위해, 제안하는 LA 효과 모델을 PSNR 에 도입하여 광범위한 실험을 수행한다. 실험 결과, 제안하는 LA 효과 모델 기반 PSNR 은 PSNR 및 베버의 법칙 기반 PSNR 대비 괄목할 만한 주관적 화질 예측 성능 향상을 보였다.

A geological repository system consists of a disposal canister with packed spent fuel, buffer material, backfill material, and intact rock. The buffer is indispensable to assure the disposal safety of high-level radioactive waste. Since the heat generated from spent nuclear fuel in a disposal canister is released to the surrounding buffer materials, the thermal properties of the buffer material are very important in determining the entire disposal safety. Especially, since thermal expansion can cause thermal stress to the intact rock mass in the near-field, it is very important to evaluate thermal expansion characteristics of bentonite buffer materials. Therefore, this paper presents a thermal expansion coefficient prediction model of the Gyeongju bentonite buffer materials which is a Ca-bentonite produced in South Korea. The linear thermal expansion coefficient was measured considering heating rate, dry density and temperature variation using dilatometer equipment. Thermal expansion coefficient values of the Gyeongju bentonite buffer materials were $4.0{\sim}6.0{\times}10^{-6}/^{\circ}C$. Based on the experimental results, a non-linear regression model to predict the thermal expansion coefficient was suggested and fitted according to the dry density.

본 논문에서는 기존에 제안된 가상음향공간 모델에서 문제점으로 대두된 음향특성을 개선한 새로운 모델을 제안하였다. 제안된 가상음향효과기는 초기 잔향을 위하여 teped delay line을 사용하여 초기반사음 재현에 충실하도록 하였고, 후기 잔향을 위하여 nesed allpass delay line을 이용하여 잔향 밀도를 높이도록 고안되었다. 각 delay line의 지연 시간을 조절하여 가장 좋은 잔향 효과를 갖도록 계수 값들을 추출하였으며, 제안한 알고리즘을 일반 범용 DSP를 이용하여 구현하였으며, 실험 고찰을 통하여 기존에 제시된 모델에서의 임펄스성음에 대한 비선형적인 거친 응답과 frequency 영역에서 고르고 평탄한 잔향 밀도가 개선되어 보다 더 좋은 효과를 보임을 확인하였다.

Experimental and analytical studies on the behavioral characteristics of a pre-stressed (PS) steel girder are conducted to investigate the effects of deviators on the non-linear inelastic properties of the PS system. In this regard, 4 test specimens consisting of a steel H-beam, a straight cable with eccentricity, anchorages, and deviators are built and failure tests are performed under two-point loading. In addition, in-plane elastic deformation theories for the PS system without a deviator, and with three deviators at regular intervals are analytically formulated and solved using a symbolic calculation technique. To verify the validity of the experimental and the proposed analytical theories, the results obtained using FEM models composed of beam elements, rigid beam elements, and truss cable elements, are compared to the experimental results and the analytical solutions. As a result, it is determined that externally installed un-bonded deviators inhibit flexural deformation of the deformed beam to such an extent that their elastic stiffness, and failure strength are significantly improved compared to those of the PS system without deviators.
