The high strength materials have been more widely used in reinforced concrete structures, specially, the reinforcing steel is permitted to used in RC structures up to yielding strength of 600 MPa. The strength of materials in RC beam section effects on the behavior and ductility of the RC members. In this study, the numerical analysis has been conducted to obtain the complete moment-curvature relation and the curvature ductility factor for the rectangular RC beams sections under the various reinforcement conditions and the effects of concrete strength, yield strength of reinforcement steel on the behavior and the curvature ductility factor of RC beam sections have been evaluated. The compressive strength of concrete and yield strength of steel have effected in various manner on the behavior and the curvature ductility factor of RC beam sections under reinforcement conditions. In the case of beam sections with equal resisting moment. the curvature ductility factor of RC beam section decreased with an increase in the yield strength of steel and increased with an increase in the concrete strength. When the yield strength of steel increased from 400 MPa to 600 MPa, the curvature ductility factor reduced about 30% and as the concrete strength increased from 30 MPa to 70 MPa, the curvature ductility factor of RC beam section increased about 3 times.

A new precast concrete (PC) beam and column connection system using non-prestressed wire strands was recently developed. The system is composed of one unit of two-storied PC-column and PC-beams with U-shaped ends. The connection part of the column and beams is reinforced by deformed bars and non-prestressed wire strands in combination for the improvement of workability. Structural performance of this system was verified by several experimental studies. The purpose of this study is developing a design concept of the beam reinforced by deformed bars and non-prestressed wire strands in combination, in terms of the cross-sectional analysis, based on the preceded experiment. A minimum and maximum reinforcement ratio and the calculation formula for the strength of flexural member reinforced by reinforcements having different yield strengths are derived based on KBC2009. Under consideration existing research results for the application of high strength reinforcement bars, the design yield strength of the non-prestressed wire strand is suggested. An example for the cross section design, satisfying the serviceability requirements, demonstrates the applicability of the design concept developed in the study.

The visual cells in the retina of Iksookimia longicorpa (Pisces, Cobitidae) were investigated by light and scanning electron microscopes. The retina ($216.42{\pm}13.36{\mu}m$) has several layers, and the visual cell layer consists of unequal double cones and large rods. In a double cone, two members are unequal such that one cone is longer than the other (long element $26.42{\pm}1.7{\mu}m$, short element $16.82{\pm}1.1{\mu}m$). The cones form a row mosaic pattern in which the partners of double cones are linearly oriented with a large rod. The visual cells observed have an outer segment (hematophilic), inner segment (eosinophilic). In scanning electron microscopy, the outer segment links to inner segment by so-called calyceal piles (calyceal processes) of membrane discs surrounded by double membranes.

This paper is a study on the generation mechanism of propeller singing based on the cavitation tunnel test, underwater impact test, finite element analysis and computational flow analysis for the model propeller. A wire screen mesh, a propeller and a rudder were installed to simulate ship stern flow, and occurrence and disappearance of propeller singing phenomenon were measured by hydrophone and accelerometer. The natural frequencies of propeller blades were predicted through finite element analysis and verified by contact and non-contact impact tests. The flow velocity and effective angle of attack for each section of the propeller blades were calculated using RANS (Reynolds Averaged Navier-Stokes) equation-based computational fluid analysis. Using the high resolution analysis based on detached eddy simulation, the vortex shedding frequency calculation was performed. The numerical predicted vortex shedding frequency was confirmed to be consistent with the singing frequency and blade natural frequency measured by the model test.

CFT column has excellent structural properties due to the composite action between concrete and steel tube. The bond behavior between the constituent elements has to be found for analyzing the behavior of CFT column. A new model is necessary because most of existing models for bond stress-slip relationship of the deformed bar cannot be applied to the CFT column. Therefore, the objective of this research is to develop a new model related to the bond behavior of CFT column considering the relation between bond stress and vertical stress, and the distribution of lateral stress under the confinement created by steel casing. From equilibrium condition, the formula for relationship between bond stress and vertical stress is derived, and the relationship for the lateral stresses of the CFT column section is obtained by an Airy stress function. The experiments are performed for five CFT column specimens axially loading on concrete alone. The relation between bond strength and lateral stress is investigated from the regression analysis using the measured strains. Finally a new bond strength model is proposed, which is able to predict the relationship for the stress of each direction of CFT column loading on concrete.

CT와 MRI의 단면 영상을 대상으로 영상분할 (Image segmentation)과 Image registration방법을 이용하여 인체 모델을 개발 하고자 한다. 우선 인체의 Head와 Neck부분의 CT와 MR 영상을 얻어 뼈, 근육, 인대, 그리고 그 밖의 장기의 해부학적 영상 특징을 분석하였다. 인체의 Head와 Neck 부분에 대한 CT와 MR 영상에 대해 각 부위별로 ROI(region-of-interrest)를 설정하였고, 각 volxel 마다 3차원 좌표를 계산할 수 있는 소프트웨어를 개발하였다. 특히 각 해부학적 영상에서 부위별로 CT 번호를 분석하고, pulse sequence에 따른 MRI 영상의 부위별 특정을 분석하였다. 이 분석한 자료를 바탕으로 영상 분할을 하였다. 영상 분할전에 각종 잡음(noise) 제거 및 영상 분할을 효과적으로 처리하기 위해 기본적인 영상처리 (filtering)를 구현하였고, 대조도(contrast) 및 밝기(brightness)를 조절할 수 있게 프로그램을 구현하였다. 영상 분할 방법 중 선(line) 및 에지(edge) 의 검출 방법, 문턱치화(threshold) 방법, 영역확대(region growing) 방법으로 영상 분할을 해봄으로써 우리의 인체 모델링 개발에 가장 적합한 영상 분할 알고리듬 방법을 찾도록 시도하였다. 결과적으로 말하면, 한가지 방법의 알고리듬을 쓰는 것보다는 인체의 부위에 따라 두 가지 이상의 알고리듬 방법을 쓰는 것이 원하고자 하는 부위를 영상 분할하는데 더 효과적이다는 것을 알게 되었다. 우리의 연구 과제에서는 영역확대(region growing) 방법과 문턱치화 방법, 모드법(피크니스, 밸리)의 알고리듬을 이용하여 영상 분할을 한 결과 우리가 얻고자 하는 인체 부위별 중 근육과 뼈를 구별하는데는 별 무리가 없었으나, 인대 및 기타 장기를 구별하는데는 어려움을 겪게 되었다. 이후에 좀더 알고리듬을 연구하여 이번 연구에서 구별하기 어려운 장기 부분도 구별 할 수 있도록 노력하겠다.

This work present a new method of sealing inspection system for vehicle in which foam rubber materials are used for sealing the vehicle parts. This system is composed from a devices comprising non-contact and real-time scanning on visual inspection in machine parts. We have been investigated qualitative factors that influenced on sealing system of vehicle structure which flexibly attenuated vibration and plenty of foam rubber materials having elastic property. However, there are different factors which still depended on outdated technique (personnel subjective judgment) in the performance inspection of rubber parts, specially for cross section inspection. Through a newly developed inspection system which recently applied for the production line, we successfully achieved more effective results of matching rate by about 80 % in the sealing performance inspection with 0.7% to 1.4% in the repeated errors. These are resulted from non-contacted response by CCD camera and vision program using geometry matching method. We expect that this system may be widely applied in the strict inspection parts of more diverse cross-section in future.

Numerical and experimental studies were conducted on the temperature distribution of a buried steel pipe and surrounding granite frozen soils in the closed system. The relationship between unfrozen water content and temperatures was analysed by laboratory test. The thermal conductivity measurements were made to compare the results with a formula presented by Lachenbruch. A steel container model that consists of a freezing chamber and a buried circular steel pipe was built for the laboratory temperature measurements. The time temperature records were measured experimentally, and those records were compared with numerical results obtained from FEM analysis in order to verify the feasibility. The latent heat effect on the granite frozen soils in the numerical study was considered.

The multi-stage shape drawing is used to obtain long shaped products with high levels of dimensional accuracy and quality. It is important to design the cross sectional shapes of the intermediate passes to meet the required dimensional accuracy of the final product in the multi-stage shape drawing. Until now, the cross sectional shapes of the intermediate passes have been designed by the experiences. It is still remained unsolved problem to design the cross sectional shapes of intermediate pass drawing dies in the multi-pass shape drawing. In this study, a new technique is proposed to design the cross sectional shapes of intermediate passes. The proposed method is applied to a multi-stage shape drawing for a LM-guide which is one of the representative shape drawing products. In order to verify the effectiveness of the proposed method, FE-simulation and experiments have been carried out. The dimensional accuracy of the proposed method is compared with that of the conventional shape drawing process designed by the industrial engineers.
