Three small scale hollow circular reinforced concrete columns(4.5 aspect ratio) were tested under cyclic lateral load with constant axial load. Diameter of section is 400 mm, hollow diameter is 200 mm. The selected test variable are transverse steel ratio. Volumetric ratio of spirals of all the columns is 0.302~0.604% in the plastic hinge region. It corresponds to 45.9~91.8% of the minimum requirement of confining steel by Korean Bridge Design Specifications, which represent existing columns not designed by the current seismic design specifications or designed by seismic concept. The final objectives of this study are to provide quantitative reference data and tendency for performance or damage assessment based on the performance levels such as cracking, yielding, steel fracture, etc. In this paper, describes mainly failure behavior, strength degradation behaviour, displacement ductility of circular reinforced concrete bridge columns with respect to test variables.

A high-gain circularly-polarized patch antenna with a double-layered superstrate is proposed operating at a wireless LAN frequency. A superstrate has an array of metallic periodic unit cells and is located above the patch antenna with an air-gap. The designed antenna has a high gain of over 9.59dBi, which is the gain enhancement of 6.48dB compared to the patch antenna without superstrate. And it has a low axial ratio of under 3dB, so that it maintains the circular polarization of the patch antenna. The optimum air-gap height at the superstrate of $4{\times}4$ arrays is 25mm, which is equivalent to about $0.2{\lambda}$ at the frequency of 2.45GHz. We confirmed that the double-layered stacking of a superstrate increases the effective aperture size and hence it leads to enhance a gain of the patch antenna.

The relationship among leaf size, leaf protoplast (cell) size, chloroplast size, and chloroplast number were investigated in tobacco and Arabidopsis thaliana at various developmental stages. In tobacco, protoplasts, less than 15.6 ${\mu}{\textrm}{m}$ in diameter had less than 20 chloroplasts, 0.93 ${\mu}{\textrm}{m}$ in thickness and 3.3 ${\mu}{\textrm}{m}$ in length on average. As protoplast size increased from 30 ${\mu}{\textrm}{m}$ to 45 ${\mu}{\textrm}{m}$ in diameter, chloroplast size remained the same (1.57 ${\mu}{\textrm}{m}$ in diameter and 5.55 ${\mu}{\textrm}{m}$ in length on average), but chloroplast number increase from 42 to 101 on average. A similar relationship was also observed in A. thaliana. The ratio of total chloroplast volume to protoplast volume was constant (0.105 in tobacco and 0.325 in A. thaliana) over various developmental stages.

As interest in latest cultural heritance is increased, an importance about conservation of dilapidated cultural building asset is risen. Most of cultural building asset used wood by main material and conservation repair about corrosion and damage by deterioration of these cultural building asset considers cultural value of member and the basis principle is the archetype maintenance. Accordingly, conservation processing method that use synthetic is embossed. This paper experimented with reinforcement sectional area ratio, direction of section, length, strength of synthetic resins as variable and manufactures total 14 specimens as experimental study about compression reinforcement performance of circular section wood that strengthen by synthetic resins. The result of this paper has shown that adequate strengthen is more efficient than new member and the most important authenticity in strengthen and repair of cultural heritance can be ensured.

In the stability problem of the U-grooved plate, it has a circular hole, the site of the hole determines some different deformation mode when it was loaded. To determine the optimal position of the circular hole-center which not to get large distortion of the hole itself, in this paper, we studied the distributions of stresses in the neck area between hole and U-groove and the distortion mode of the deformed hole by B.E.M(Boundary Element Method) and compared with experimental results in four cases. For a distributed load, according to the center of the hole moves closer to the U-groove center (c.-c. line), the shape of the circular hole was transformed to the elliptical one(it's major axis perpendicular to the c.-c. line). In this problem, the results by Boundary Element Method was well accorded with Experiments.

Palaces of a country can be representative aggregate of the culture and arts of the country. Palaces were used not only as a living place to protect kings and royal families and to live cultural lives, but also a political place to govern the country. Kings in Choseon founded the country on the Sung Confucianism, their philosophical background. They built Bangji and Wondo as constant reminders of their philosophy. Bangji is the most apparent characteristic in the palace gardens of the Choseon Dynasty. Finding out the original form of Jidang, restoring the original and passing it on to future generations can be passing on the spiritual culture of our ancestors. This study is done to find out or locate well preserved Jidang, transformed Jidang and lost Jidang in Changdeokgung, which is the best conserved palace of Choseon. This study is composed of Jidang which has been kept in its original state, transformed Jidang, locating lost Jidang and Jidnang which has been unearthed. The total number of Donggwoldo's Jidangs is 17; those that are kept in their original state, 4; transformed Jidangs, 5; Jidangs that were lost and have been located, 8; and newly appeared Jidangs, 2. From the results, opinions on restoration are presented. This study can be a small drop in the thin stream of tradition passing onto future generations in this world where knowledge and information are transported momentarily and the classification of culture and border is mixed, yielding vagueness.

An understanding of 'original form' plays an important role as it is the starting point of heritage conservation. This paper delineated several types of understanding on 'original form' over times, and aims at analyzing the way how such concepts has provided a platform of repair works of timber buildings in Korea over times. Conservation in Korea was initiated by the attitude of the Japanese authority during the Colonial period and 'restoring into the earliest form', which had been set in the early stage of the Japanese conservation, has strongly influenced on Korean practice during the period. Such attitude has lasted even after the independence of Korea. In Japan, however, the attitude has shifted to taking a careful decision on the alteration of the existing form during the 1930s. In addition, examination and research in the repair work became essential steps to conduct along with the publication of the report of works. In Korea there has been lack of understanding on the importance of examination and research in repair works and the publication of report of the works has not been mandatory so that it has emphasized on the 'form' in conservation aiming at 'restoring the earliest form'. Such attitude has created the problem of replacing original material during the work which should aim at preserving and maintaining heritage in Korea. Because of these circumstances in preserving the architectural cultural properties in Korea, cultural buildings had succeeded in preserving the outer appearance but there are remaining questions on preserving the original states of them. This paper has pointed out that it is necessary to set out the principles of conserving 'original condition' through further study and discussion based on the careful consideration on both the international principles and Korean context.

This study was examined the tensile strength change of a circular tubular member with artificial sectional damage on its surface to consider surface sectional damage by corrosion. The tensile strength tests were conducted using circular tubular specimens with artificial sectional damage considering sectional damaged height and width on its surface according to the corrosion level. From the tensile strength test results, it is confirmed that tensile strength of the circular tubular specimens was affected by the damaged circumference (damaged width), not damaged length (damaged height) and their tensile failures were appeared at the minimum section of the artificial sectional damage part. Nonlinear finite-element analyses were conducted considering equivalent sectional damage effect on sectional damaged part in tensile specimens to examine the change in the tensile strength of tubular specimens with artificial sectional damage since it is difficult to estimate the sectional damaged surface condition of the specimens clearly. From the nonlinear finite element analysis results for the tensile test specimens, tensile strengths of test specimens with irregular sectional damaged surface were relatively evaluated to be highly decreased than these of FE analysis model with equivalent sectional damage. Therefore, residual tensile strengths of tensile members with irregular sectional damage as local corrosion can be evaluated and predicted using correlation coefficient between tensile test results and FE analysis results with equivalent sectional damage.

It this study, the aerodynamic responses of circular cylinder behind a pair of circular cylinders arranged side by side in a uniform flow were investigated. We confirmed that four types of oscillation are occured on downstream cylinder in such an arrangement. Influenced by upstream cylinders, the amplitude of vortex induced oscillation is increased and wake buffeting occured when S/D(S: distance between the centers of upstream cylinders, D: diameter of cylinder) is smaller than 1.2. When S/D is larger than 1.2, gap flow introduces to oscillation which maintains a uniform amplitude in spite of increasing wind speed. This oscillation is reduced to "wake galloping" if its amplitude exceeds the limit point.
