The ground motions of large dimensional structures such as long span bridges at different stations during an earthquake, are inevitably different, which is known as the ground motion spatial variation effect. There are many causes that may result in the spatial variability in seismic ground motion, e.g., the wave passage effect due to the different arrival times of waves at different locations; the loss of coherency due to seismic waves scattering in the heterogeneous medium of the ground; the site amplification effect owing to different local soil properties. In previous researches, the site amplification effects have not been considered or considered by a single-layered soil model only. In this study, however, the ground motion amplification and filtering effects are evaluated by multi-layered soil model. Spatially varying ground motion at the sites with different number of layers, depths, and soil characteristics are generated and the variation characteristics of ground motion time histories according to the correlation of coherency loss function and soil conditions are evaluated. For the bridge system composed of two unit bridges, seismic behavior characteristics are analyzed using the generated seismic waves as input ground motion. Especially, relative displacement due to coherency loss and site effect which can cause the unseating and pounding between girders are evaluated. As a result, considering the soil conditions of each site are always important and should not be neglected for an accurate structural response analysis.

Lord Rayleigh와 Brillouin 이래로 파동의 전파와 군속도에 대한 많은 논의가 진행되어왔으며 최근까지 초광속 및 초저속 현상에 대한 흥미로운 실험과 이론적 연구들이 보고되고 있다. 초광속 현상의 경우에는 터널링 시간, 이득매질에서의 펄스진행, 분산매질에서 펄스의 진행시간 측정 등이 보고되었고, 초저속 광파의 진행에 대해서는 EIT 현상에 기초한 실험이 주로 보고되었으며 심지어는 광저장까지 가능하게 되었다. (중략)

A theoretical attempt is made to analyze the dynamic contact force and response of laminated composite beams subjected to the transverse impact of steel balls. A beam finite element model based on the modified theory for laminated composites in conjunction with static contact laws is formulated for the theoretical investigation. Finally, it is shown that the present results are in good agreement with some existing solutions or wave propagation theory.

This research is to analyze the wave propagation characteristics of anisotropic materials subjected to the low-velocity impact. For this purpose, a higher-order finite element program is used to simulate the dynamic behaviors according to the changes of material property, stacking sequence and dimension etc.. Materials for simulation are composed of $[0^{\circ}]_{10s}$, $[45^{\circ}/-45^{\circ}]_{5s}$ and $[90^{\circ}]_{10s}$ stacking sequences. Finally, the results of this simulation are compared with those of wave propagation theory and then the impact responses and wave propagation phenomena are investigated.

The purpose of this study is to analyze the results of physics (optics) in nationwide standardized assessment and to investigate middle-school students' characteristics of achievement by using an option response rate distribution curve. For this purpose, we analyzed the 10 optics problems from the National Assessment of Educational Achievement (NAEA) items for middle school science subject conducted in 2010-2013. The results of this study are as follows; First, students showed a little higher achievement in optics than classical mechanics and electromagnetism. Second, students achieved significantly worse in 'formation of image' in 'light' part and 'variation of phase in propagation of wave' in 'wave' part. Third, students showed a context-dependent problem solving strategy and result. Additionally, we suggested some implications about the readjustment of some optics concepts level of national science curriculum, the need for teaching and learning strategies for basic level students, and the need for teaching and learning strategies focused on the realistic context.

The propagation of coherent time-harmonic elastic L-and SV-waves is studied in a medium with random distribution of cylindrical inclusions. The purpose of the research is to characterize the dynamic elastic moduli and the attenuation properties of fiber-reinforced composite materials. The cylindes representing the fibers are assumed to be distributed in parallel with each other and the direction of incident waves are normal to the cylinder axes. A multiple scattering formula using the single scattering coefficients in conjunction with the Lax's quasicrystalline approximation is derived from which the dispersion relation for such medium is obtained. In order to formulate the multiple scattering interaction between cylinders, the pair correlation functions are generated by the Monte Carlo simulation technique. From the numerically evaluated complex wavenumbers, the propagation speed of the average wave, the coherent attenuation and the effective elastic moduli are presented as functions of frequency and fiber volume fraction.

Synthetic seismograms and deduced characteristic properties of the non-geometrical $S^*$ and $P^*$ waves are presented. These waves are excited on the free surface or an interface between two different media by an inhomogeneous P wave from a point source nearby, and propagate as homogeneous waves in the media. Synthetic seismograms are computed using an extended reflectivity method designed for buried source and receiver. An efficient computational procedure for propagator matrices of layers is devised to reduce the computational time and the RAM memory size in the implementation of the reflectivity method. Radiation patterns are obtained from the particle motions of the four types of the "*" waves, i.e., the $S^*$ wave generated near the free surface, and the reflected $S^*$, transmitted $S^*$ and transmitted $P^*$ waves generated near an interface. Some patterns show polarity changes of displacements and others reveal monotonic or non-monotonic variation of amplitude depending on the velocity structure. The decaying trend of amplitude with increasing epicentral distance are also shown for the head wave type of the "*" waves.

The geostationary satellite COMS is going to be launched in 2010, and, in the series of test, there are some high-pressure tests concerning the vessel tank filled with helium gas of hundreds atmospheric pressure. In this paper, authors evaluates risk associated with accidental rupture of the test system. Two possible scenarios are considered: 1) the 310-bar helium tank ruptures at the center of the acoustic chamber, and 2) the 116-bar reduced-pressure helium tank ruptures in the test room shielded by bullet-proof glasses. Using the theory of blast wave propagation and computational simulation, the dynamics of wave reflected in a confined space is investigated for highly complex unsteady flow physics.

소 해면형 뇌증(Bovine Spongiform Encephalpathy; BSE)이 처음 확인된 것은 1986년 11월이며, 영국에서의 최초발생을 시작으로 하여, 지난 10여년 동안 발생국가의 수는 다소 증가하고 있지만 전체적인 발생두수는 1993년을 정점으로하여 감소하는 추세를 보이고 있다. 아직까지도 확실한 병인체는 밝혀져 있지 않은 상태이며, 최초 확인당시 인체에의 감염 가능성은 없는 것으로 발표된 바 있으나, 지난 1996년 3월 20일, 영국정부 보건장관이 영구하원에서, 소 해면형 뇌증이 사람의 희귀한 뇌 질환인 크로이츠휄트-야곱병(CJD)의 새로운 스트레인(v-CJD)과 관련성이 있을 수 있다고 보고한 다음날, CNN 등 세계 각 매스컴을 통하여, '광우병 사람에게 전파될지도$\cdots$'(Mad cow illness may threaten humans)라는 제목으로 Top News로 보도되었으며, 수의학이나 의학적인 사실 확인의 여부를 떠나, 사회 경제적인 문제로 큰 놀라움과 많은 의문사항을 남겨둔 채, 국제적인 문제로 확대된 바있다. 본 편에서는, 소 해면형 뇌증 (BSE)과 관련, 영국의 광우병 파동이 일어난 지난 3월부터 지금까지 국내외 매스컴에 보도된 내용중 주요사항들을 스크랩하여 참고자료로 제공하고자 한다. 자료중에는 중복기사나 추측기사, 검증되지 아니한 오보, 지극히 개인적인 견해 등도 있을 수 있으며, 외신보도의 접수시간, 국내보도의 조간-석간, 지면구성, 수도권판과 지방판 등, 그리고 특히 병명이나 고유명사, 외래어 등의 전문용어 표기에 있어서 꼭 일치하지 아니하는 경우가 있을 수 있음을 참고로 하여야할 것이다.

터빈 익렬, 펌프 익차, 원형 냉각탑, 치차 등과 같이 동일한 형상이 원주 방향으로 반복되어 있는 순환 대칭 구조물의 진동특성을 유한 요소법을 사용하여 해석하는 경우에 전체구조를 모델링하는 대신에 구조물을 동일한 형상의 부분구조로 분할하여 부분구조 한개만을 모델링하고 분할된 경계에서 적절한 경계조건을 부과하여 진동해석을 수행함으로서 컴퓨터 기억용량을 절감시키고 계산시간을 단축할 수 있는 방법이 널리 사용되고 있다. Orris and Petyt[1]는 부분구조의 양쪽 분할 경계면, 즉 연결 경계상에 있는 절점변위의 상관관계를 복소파동전파식을 이용해서 구하여 부분구조의 감소된 복소강성행렬 및 질량행렬을 만들고 실수부와 허수부를 분리하여 유한요소해석을 수행하는 방법을 제안하였다. 유한요소 프로그램 ANSYS[2]에서는 이와 같은 방법을 사용하고 있다. Thomas[3]는 순회 정규모드를 이용하였고, 참고문헌[4]에서는 순회행렬을 이용하였다. 또한 유한요소 프로그램 MSC/NASTRAN[5]에서는 푸리에 급수를 이용하고 유한요소 절점의 위치 및 변위를 원통 좌표계를 표현하여 순환대칭구조물의 유한요소해석을 수행할 수 있도록 되어있다. 본 논문에서는 순환 대칭구조물의 형상의 주기성과 순환성을 고려하여 이산퓨리에 변환을 이용함으로써 순환대칭구조물의 유한요소진동해석을 체계적으로 저용량의 컴퓨터에서 신속하고 정확하게 수행할 수 있는 방법을 제안하고자 한다.
