본 연구에서는 부도예측용 인공신경망 모형의 입력노드를 선정하기 위한 방법론으로 연결강도판별분석(Link Weight Discrimination Analysis)에 의한 약체뉴론제거법(Weak-Linked Neuron Elimination)과 강체뉴론선택법 (Strong-Linked Neurons Selection)을 제안한다. 연결강도판별분석이란 적절한 학습이 끝난 인공신경망 모형에서 입력노드와 연결되는 가중치의 합에 대한 절대값인 연결강도 판별식(Link Weight Discrimination)에 의해 해당 입력노 드가 출력노드에 미치는 영향정도를 분석하는 것이다. 한편 강체연결뉴론선택법은 선처리를 통해 얻어진 학습된 인공신경망의 입력노드 가운데서 연결강도판별식이 큰 뉴론만을 본처리의 입력노드로 선정하는 것인데 비해 약체연결뉴론제거법은 연결강도판별식이 일정 값 즉, 연결강도 판별임계치(Link Weight Discrimination Cut off Value) 보다 낮은 입력노드를 제외하고 나머지 입력노드만을 본처리의 입력노드로 선정하는 것이다. 본 연구에서는 강체연결뉴론선택법과 약체연결뉴론제거법을 각각 정형적인 방법론으로 정립하고 이 방법론에 의해 부도예측용 인공신경망을 구축하여 각각의 모형을 의사결정트리에 의해 선정된 인공신경망 모형 및 선처리 과정을 거치지 않은 인공신경망 모형과 성능을 비교, 분석하여 본 연구에서 제안한 방법론의 타당성을 제시하였다.

인공신경망에 의해 부도예측을 하기 위해서는 여러 개의 재무비율을 입력변수 즉, 입력노드로 이용하는데, 이 가운데 적절한 입력노드를 선정하는 일은 예측력을 결정하는데 있어서 매우 중요하다. 본 연구에서는 새로운 입력노드 선정 휴리스틱을 제안하기 위하여 적절한 훈련이 끝난 인공신경망 모델에서 각 입력노드와 연결되는 가중치들의 합에 대한 절대값인 연결강도가 작은 경우 해당 노드는 출력값에 대한 설명력이 약할 것이다라는 연결강도판별 명제를 제시한다. 즉, 연결강도가 연결강도임계치보다 작은 입력노드는 제거 대상으로 분류할 수 있을 것이고, 이들 노드를 제외한 입력노드는 그렇지 않은 경우보다 더 나은 예측력을 보여 줄 수 있을 것이다. 연결강도판별 명제를 실증적으로 입증하기 위해 본 연구에서는 연결강도판별 선처리 과정에 대한 방법론을 제안하고 제안된 방법론에 의해 부도예측을 실시하여 아무런 선처리를 거치지 않은 모형과 비교하였고, 또 기존의 입력변수 선정방식 중에 하나인 의사결정트리 방식에 의한 입력변수 선정 모형과도 비교하여 더 나은 결과를 얻었다.

본 연구에서는 부도예측용 인공신경망의 입력노드 선정을 위한 휴리스틱으로 연결강도분석 접근법을 제안한다. 연결강도분석은 학습이 끝난 인공신경망에서 입력노드와 은닉노드와 연결된 가중치의 절대값 즉, 연결강도를 분석하여 입력변수를 선정하는 접근법으로, 본 연구에서는 약체연결뉴론제거법, 강체연결뉴론선택법 그리고 이 두 기법을 통합한 통합 연결강도 모형을 제안하여 각각 의사결정 트리 및 다변량판별분석에 의해 선정된 입력변수를 이용한 인공신경망 모형과 예측율을 비교한다. 실험 결과 본 연구에서 제안하고 있는 방법론이 의사결정트리나 다다변량판별분석 기법 보다 높은 예측율을 보여 주었다. 특히 두 기법의 통합연결강도 모형의 경우에는 다른 단일 기법보다 높은 예측율을 보이고 있다.

Link weight analysis approach is suggested as a heuristic for selection of input nodes in artificial neural network for bankruptcy prediction. That is to analyze each input node\\\\`s link weight-absolute value of link weight between an input node and a hidden node in a well-trained neural network model. Prediction accuracy of three methods in this approach, -weak-linked-neurons elimination method, strong-linked-neurons selection method and integrated link weight model-is compared with that of decision tree and multivariate discrimination analysis. In result, the methods suggested in this study show higher accuracy than decision tree and multivariate discrimination analysis. Especially an integrated model has much higher accuracy than any individual models.

In this study, the structural details of steel girder-abutment joints with shear connectors and tie bars were suggested to improve the rigid behavior and crack-resisting capacity of the joints in integral bridges. Experimental loading tests of steel girder-abutment joint specimens with the proposed and empirically constructed structural details were carried out, and the capacities and behavioral characteristics of the joints were evaluated through loading tests. Based on the results of the loading tests, it was estimated that all types of tested joints can be applied to the steel girder-abutment joints because they have sufficient stiffness and crack-resisting capacity under the required design and yield loads. According to the initial stiffness, crack propagations, and load-strain relationships, however, the joints with shear connectors and tie bars showed better structural behaviors compared to the empirically constructed joint.

In this paper, connection strength between facing block and tie-bar was investigated through experimental study with varying in-fill material such as concrete, soil and crushed stone. Also, connection strength between anchor block and tie-bar was investigated with varying in-fill material. According to the experimental results, in case of using in-fill concrete, connection strength between facing block and tie-bar was larger than allowable tension load of tie-bar. Whereas in case of using in-fill soil or crushed stone, connection strength between facing block and tie-bar was less or similiar to allowable tension load of tie-bar. Connection strength between anchor block and tie-bar for which crushed stone was used as in-fill material, was larger than allowable tension load of tie-bar.

Purpose: The purpose of this study was to evaluate the fracture strength of straight and angled zirconia abutments for internal hex and external hex implants. Materials and methods: Twenty internal hex implants and 20 external hex implants were prepared. The prefabricated straight zirconia abutments and 17-degree-angled zirconia abutments were connected to those 40 implants. The specimens were classified into 4 groups depending on the connection type and abutment angulation; internal hex implant/straight abutment, group INS; internal hex implant/angled abutment, group INA; external hex implant/straight abutment, group EXS; external hex implant/angled abutment, group EXA. All specimens were loaded at a 30-degree angle with a crosshead speed of 1 mm/min using universal testing machine. The fracture loads were analyzed using 2-way ANOVA and independent t-test (${\alpha}=.05$). Results: The mean fracture load for INS was 955.91 N, 933.65 N for INA, 1267.20 N for EXS, and 1405.93 N for EXA. External hex implant showed a significantly higher fracture load, as compared to internal hex implant (P < .001). No significant differences in fracture loads were observed between the straight and angled abutment in internal hex implants (P = .747) and external hex implants (P = .222). Internal hexes of abutments were fractured horizontally in internal connection implants, while lingual cervical neck portions were fractured in external connection implants. Conclusion: The zirconia abutments with external hex implants showed significantly higher fracture strength than those with internal hex implants. However there was no difference in fracture strength between the straight and 17-degree-angled zirconia abutment connected to both implant systems.

This paper studies the behavior of joints in steel-PSC (prestressed concrete) hybrid beams, which is necessary for the application of hybrid beams to spliced girder bridges, and proposes a new type of joint with improved construction convenience and structural behavior. In the proposed joint, perfobond rib shear connectors are attached to the upper and lower plates, which are expanded from the steel girders and located between the steel girder and the PSC girder. The experimental tests were performed on hybrid beams with the suggested joint. The results showed that all the beams had similar ultimate strengths and failure modes, due to the failure of their PSC parts. The composite action of the perfobond ribs was verified by examining the initial stiffness and cracks of the test beams. In addition, the test beams showed a higher degree of ultimate strength than the beams with stud shear connectors in the joints that had been previously studied. Thus, the proposed joint is effective for the steel-PSC hybrid beam.

concrete deck bridges are increasingly aplied to twin- girder bridges and open-stel box girder bridges.One of the most dificult isues in the design of shear conect ors is the mater of achieving ful composite action. Many connectors in smal area require a significant section los of precast decks resulting in difficult reinforcement details. In this closer spacing than the required minimum spacing in the design codes was evaluated through static tests. Test results s howed that the ultimate strength decreased as the conector spacing was reduced. The strength enhancement was observed due to aditional reinforcement for precast slabs or for shear pockets. Thus, the design of group stud shear connection needs to anticipate failure modes and the conector failure should be induced. Based on the test results, an empirical equation consi dering stud spacing was proposed to evaluate the ultimate strength of group stud shear conection. Fatigue tests showed n o reduction in fatigue life of the group stud shear conection in the range of this research. Details of the precast decks wer e enhanced using the findings of the study.
