In current design codes, minimum shear reinforcement is required for reinforced concrete flexural members, and the use of steel fiber reinforced concrete is permitted to replace the minimum shear reinforcements. In the present study, to estimate the effects of shear reinforcements and fibers on shear strength, simply supported beams were tested under transverse loading. The test results showed that the shear strength was significantly increased by the use of fibers. Particularly, the effect of fiber reinforced concrete was pronounced when high-strength concrete was used. The performance of fiber reinforced concrete for minimum shear reinforcement was evaluated using results of the present study and existing tests.

Current design codes regulate the minimum torsional reinforcement requirement for reinforced concrete members to prevent their brittle failure. The minimum torsional reinforcement ratio specified in the current national code and ACI318-11, however, have problems in the minimum longitudinal reinforcement ratio for torsion, the equilibrium condition in space truss model, and a marginal strength, etc. Thus, in order to overcome such shortcomings, this study presents a rational equation for minimum torsional reinforcement ratio that can provide a sufficient margin of safety in design. The minimum torsional reinforcement ratio proposed in this study was compared to the test results available in literature, and it was confirmed that it gave a proper margin of safety for all specimens studied in this paper.

The law about floor impact sound goes into effect from March 23th in 2004 and is applying to new designs. According to the new law, the minimal of slab thickness is 180mm by standard floor structure and the new law presents about the minimal standard about heavy-weight impact sound. Also, It presents about classification of light-weight sound separate the minimal standard, so demand of consumers can be accepted. But a working plan of classification about light-weight sound is not presented in accordance with field test, so the problem that design can't be achieved although the aim of design is formed. This study shows contents to investigate for working of classification and will be helpful to designers and construction corporations.

Maximum efficiency control scheme in a stator flux-oriented induction motor drive is proposed for minimizing input dc power. Flux level is decreased in steps for searching the minimum input dc power. In addition, Torque equation, slip angular frequency, and decoupling compensation current considering iron loss resistance is used. Simulation and experimental results verify the effectiveness of the proposed method.

Sihs minimum strain energy density criterion(SED) often used in the mixed mode problem has the ambiguity of the choice of minimum values. In this paper, as the method to solve the problem of SED, maximum minimum strain energy density criterion is proposed that the crack propagates in the direction of having the maximum among the minimum values of modified strain energy density factor(MS), i.e., sign($\sigma$(sub)$\theta$).Smin.

A pole-placement control of discrete, deterministic, single-input single-output nonmini-mum phase systems is considered using a model reference type approach. The proposed pole-placement controller is designed in the parameter form to make the transfer function of the controller equal to that of the reference model with only single variable polynomial S(q-1). The proposed adaptive pole-placement controllr is designed with the true system para-meters by applying the adaptation method to the proposed pole-placement controller.

In this paper, we studied some design methodologies of typical FIR filters based on the peak-error constrained least square criterion which was first introducedd by Adams in 1991. This method is a mixed type of the classical least squared error method(LSM) and the so-called min-max error method (MMM). And by considering both the least squared error as well as the maximum error, the solution, i.e. the impulse response of the filter, can be found only when the restrictions on maximum gain, transition bandwidth, and the squared error are satisfied simultaneously under some trade-off conditions. We used the multiple exchange algorithms for optimization procedure and applied the design methodology to the cases of the multiband filter, the differentiator, and the Hilbert transformer by taking the balance of two design criteria into account. The results show that the peak-error constrained least weighted square error design method(PLEM) is superior in performance to the existing LSM and MMM from both the squared error and the maximum error standpoints. And it is verified that PLEM can be applied to not only the case of simple low pass filter, but also to various types of FIR filters.

Waterway design should prioritize appropriate channel width to ensure preferential safe passage for the arrival and departure of vessels. To calculate the minimum channel width required for safe passage a comprehensive review of several factors is required. These factors include vessel maneuverability, determined by vessel size, type and speed; environmental factors such as wind, tide, and wave action; human factors, including personal experience and operator judgment as well as marine traffic and navigation support facilities for decision making. However, the Korean channel width design standard is based only on vessel length, and requires improvement when compared with the standards of PIANC, USA, and Japan. This study aims to estimate the appropriate channel width required for one-way traffic in a straight channel, considering various vessel and environmental factors, using Fast Time Simulation (FTS). When the wind speed is 25 knots, with a current speed of 2 knots and a normal vessel speed of 10 knots FTS shows that a 150K GT Cruise Ship requires a minimum channel width of 0.67-0.91 the vessel length (L), whereas a 120K TEU Container Ship and a 300K DWT VLCC require 0.79-1.17 and 1.02-1.59, respectively. Such results can be used to calculate the minimum channel width required for safe passage as an improved Korean design standard.

Road design guideline provides the directions on how to design a road alignment based on design speed, and this guideline has a design expectation in that design speed is supposed to be equal to the operating speed of drivers. Horizontal curve design is also based on design speed, and minimum radius is derived based on the drivers comfort while negotiating the curve. However, side friction reflecting drivers comfort is lower than a physical friction measured on wet road surface, therefore, it is reasonable to regard the criterion on minimum radius has a safety margin. Futhermore, the practical preference of choosing the larger radius than minimum leads to a noticeable gap between design speed and operating speed, so links to the violation of design expectation implicated in the guideline. In order to review this assumption, friction and operating speed at rural roads was measured and observed. As the results, a safety margin brought out by the gap between comfort-based friction and measured friction is qualitatively derived. Also, the gap between design speed and operating speed presumably caused by the safety margin and practical preference is analysed. By this, it is suggested that current design guideline should provides not only the minimum radius but also the management of road alignment design to minimize the gap between the design speed and operating speed.
