The study proposes component models in developing an efficient platform for internet-based structural analysis. Since a structural analysis requires an operation of complicated algorithms, a client-side computation using X-Internet is preferred to a server-side computation to provide a flexible service for multi-users. To compete with the user-friendly interfaces of available commercial analysis programs, a window-based interface using Smart Client was applied. Also, component-based programming was performed with the considerations on reusability and expandability so that active Preparation for future change or modification could be feasible. The components describe the whole system by subdivision and simplification. In the relationship between upper-and lower-level components and also in the relationship between components and objects, a unified interface was used to clearly classify the connection between the libraries. By performing data communication between different types of platforms using XML WebService, a conner-stone of data transfer is proposed for the future integrated CAE. The efficiency of the developed platform has been examined through a sample structural analysis and design on planar truss structures.

The form-work operation of concrete structures is a major element determining the period and cost of construction projects. However, the selection of the appropriate form-work system is dependent on the experience of the site personnel only. In this paper, existing methods (Aluminum form, Sky deck) and new slab form-work methods (AFB: Aluminum panel Form with dropping Beam) were selected. Each method was estimated by means of Delphi techniques based on the qualitative analysis data. This paper suggests an evaluation methodology of slab form-work application in construction sites by calculating qualitative evaluation scores. The methodology finding quantified scores of qualitative criteria can be available to be applied to other construction operation evaluation methods.

As the Internet has been improved to Web 2.0, it introduces new approaches including Rich Internet Application (RIA) technology such as Flash, AJAX, Silverlight, etc. The RIA which is platform independent technology allows applications to provide rich client-side interfaces, and allows the browser to interact with users without communication to server. In this paper, we propose a method of spatial data service based on RIA technology. Internet map service using spatial data generally requires rich client-side interfaces and various interactions. These features can be provided by the RIA. The proposed method uses Flash developed by Macromedia as RIA technology. It can be applicable on any platform including mobile environment. The spatial data server makes Flash file known as SWF (Shock Wave File) with manipulation code for map and spatial data that is requested by user, and send it to the web browser. Once the web browser receives a SWF, client SWF manipulates user interactions, such as zooming and panning, without communication with server. Experiments that execute the application on various web browsers including mobile web browser and measure time of map interaction are carried out to compare with traditional bitmap based WMS (Web Map Service). As a result of experiments, we have confirmed improvement of interactivity and performance with RIA approach.

In order to increase a functionality, OH value, for a recycled polyol prepared from the glycolysis reaction of a waste polyurethane rigid foam(PUR), the effect of an addition of pentaerythritol(PEN, functionality(f)=4) or sorbitol(SOR, f=6) to the its glycolysis reactor on the prepared polyol functionality and the mechanical properties of the polyurethane prepared using it was investigated. The OH values increased from 2.2 for a virgin to 2.8 for the recycled polyol. There was an increase in the mechanical properties including dimensional stability for PUR prepared using the recycled polyol, in which the increased OHs provided higher crosslinking density during PUR synthesis. In addition, the amount of the recycled polyol in the polyol system increased to from 8 to 20 wt% to give better mechanical properties to the PUR.

Composite materials can be used economically and efficiently in civil engineering applications when standards and procedure for analysis, design, construction and quality control are to be established. Bridge systems, including the girders and cross-beams, and concrete decks behave as the specially orthotropic plates. For such systems with sections, boundary conditions other than Navier solution types, it is very difficult to obtain its analytical solution. To design the bridge made by the composite materials, cross-section was used as the form-core shape for economical reason and finite difference method was used for output of the stress value. The Tsai-Wu failure criterion for stress space is used. In this paper, the rate of tensile strength reduction due to increased size was considered. And also numerical study is made for these cases.

In this paper, conceptual structural design of the main wing for a small scale WIG(Wing in Ground Effect) among high speed ship projects, which will be a high speed maritime transportation system for the next generation in Rep. of Korea, was performed. The Carbon/Epoxy material was selected for the major structure, and the skin-spar with a foam sandwich structural type was adopted for improvement of lightness and structural stability. As a design procedure for the present study, firstly the design load was estimated through the critical flight load case study, and then flanges of the front and rear spars from major bending loads and the skin and the spar webs from shear loads were preliminarily sized using the netting rule and the rule of mixture. Stress analysis was performed by a commercial FEA code, NASTRAN. From the stress analysis results for the first designed wing structure, it was confirmed that the upper skin between the front spar and the rear spar was unstable fer the buckling. Therefore in order to solve this problem, a middle spar and the foam sandwich type structure at the skin and the web were added. After design modification, the structural safety and stability for the final design feature was confirmed. In addition to this, the insert bolt type structure with eight high strength bolts to fix the wing structure to the fuselage was adopted for easy assembly and removal as well as in consideration of more than 20 years fatigue life.

Cyclic heating method is useful method for measuring the thermal diffusivity of porous materials. The main object of this paper is to develop and verify the thermal diffusivity measuring system of porous materials under vacuum condition. To verify this method, thermal diffusivities of the alumina ($Al_2O_3$) specimen and polystyrene foam were measured. Thermal diffusivities of these specimens were agreed with reference values. Thermal diffusivities of carbon/epoxy and porous insulation material were measured at atmospheric room temperature condition and vacuum condition respectively. Thermal diffusivities of carbon/epoxy and porous insulation material under vacuum are reduced by 66.4% and 64.9% compared to the thermal diffusivities under the atmospheric condition. These differences are considered the effect of the porous insulation material with an air.

To improve the efficiency of water splitting systems for hydrogen production, the high overvoltages of electrochemical reactions caused by catalysts in the oxygen evolution reaction (OER, Oxygen Evolution Reaction) must be reduced. Among them, LDH (Layered Double Hydroxide) compounds containing transition metal such as Ni, are attracting attention as catalyst materials that can replace precious metals such as platinum that are currently used. In this study, nickel foam, an inexpensive metallic porous material, was used as a support, and NiCo LDH (Layered Double Hydroxide) nanocrystals were synthesized through a hydrothermal synthesis process. In addition, changes in the shape, crystal structure, and water decomposition characteristics of the Mo-doped NiCo LDH nanocrystal samples synthesized by doping Mo to improve OER properties were observed.

Purpose. The purpose of the study was to fabricate a prototype robotic simulator for dental education, to test whether it could simulate mandibular movements, and to assess the possibility of the stimulator responding to stimuli during dental practice. Materials and methods. A virtual simulator model was developed based on segmentation of the hard tissues using cone-beam computed tomography (CBCT) data. The simulator frame was 3D printed using polylactic acid (PLA) material, and dentiforms and silicone face skin were also inserted. Servo actuators were used to control the movements of the simulator, and the simulator's response to dental stimuli was created by pressure and water level sensors. A water level test was performed to determine the specific threshold of the water level sensor. The mandibular movements and mandibular range of motion of the simulator were tested through computer simulation and the actual model. Results. The prototype robotic simulator consisted of an operational unit, an upper body with an electric device, a head with a temporomandibular joint (TMJ) and dentiforms. The TMJ of the simulator was capable of driving two degrees of freedom, implementing rotational and translational movements. In the water level test, the specific threshold of the water level sensor was 10.35 ml. The mandibular range of motion of the simulator was 50 mm in both computer simulation and the actual model. Conclusion. Although further advancements are still required to improve its efficiency and stability, the upper-body prototype simulator has the potential to be useful in dental practice education.
