A study for the structural strength evaluation on the slender doubler plate has been performed through the systematic evaluation process. In order to estimate the proper static strength of doubler plate subjected to the longitudinal in-plane compression, elasto-plastic large deflection analysis is introduced including the contact effect between main plate and doubler. The characteristics of stiffness and strength variation are discussed based on their results. Also, in order to compare the doubler structure with the original strength of main plate without doubler, a simple formula for the evaluation of the equivalent flat plate thickness is derived based on the additional series analysis of flat plate structure. Using this derived equation, the thickness change of a equivalent flat plate is analyzed according to the variation of various design parameters of doubler plate and some design guides are suggested in order to maintain the original strength of main plate without doubler reinforcement. Finally, correlation between derived equivalent flat plate formula and the developed buckling strength formulas by author et al. is discovered and these relations are formulated for the future development of simple strength evaluation formula of doubler plate structure.

The purpose of this study was to identify middle school students' mental models on plate tectonics and to compare the mental models of verbal-learning-style students with those of visual-learning-style students. 94 student participants in 9th grade were requested to draw and explain three topics; generation of magma, the formation of the mountain range and the interior of the Earth. The criterions for analyzing the mental models are derived from the data of the drawing task. The research results were as follows: The mental models on the generation of magma were classified as 'unstable model,' 'partial casual model,' 'causal model,' and 'conceptual model.' On the other hand, the mental models on the interior of the Earth were classified as 'static unstable model,' 'dynamic unstable model,' and 'conceptual model.' Students holding 'unstable model' were unable to relate the plate collision and the magma generation. They showed a variety of alternative conceptions of study areas, such as 'magma is generated from the core' and 'the mountain is formed by rising of the plates themselves.' Also, visual-learning-style students showed higher proportion of conceptual models and lower proportion of unstable mental models than verbal-learning-style students on three topics. The findings revealed that the students tend to have different concepts on the plate tectonics depending on their learning style.

Ship structure basically consists of plate members and it's overall strength depends an the stiffness and strength of each plate member. The buckling strength of plate is one of the most important design criteria when we investigate the structural intergraty. Therefore, it is necessary to surly reasonable buckling formula in order to carry out a more efficient and reliable design. In the present study, the buckling design formula of plate panels under combined loads(inplane compression, tension and shear) is obtained on the theoretical solution or reference paper. This formula is compared with the existing theoretical solution, other author's formula[1], design codes of LR and results which are obtained by numerical analysis. It has a good correlation with numerical analysis results or theoretical ones. When we evaluate buckling strength of plate panels, this formula can be presented with reasonable accuracy.

Laminated composite plates have shown their superiority over metals in applications requiring high specific strength, high specific modulus, and so on. Therefore, they have used in various industry. However, they have poor resistance to impact compared to typical metal materials. To resolve this problem by many researchers for a variety of studies have been attempted. This study investigates characteristic of impact behavior of laminated composite plates due to initial stress. Using finite element program which involved the indentation law, we investigate characteristic of impact behavior of laminated composite plates due to initial stress.

현재 친환경 에너지에 대한 관심의 증대로 인하여 박막 태양전지 연구에 대한 수요가 증가하고 있다. 특히 InGaN 기반의 박막태양전지는 태양 스펙트럼 전체를 흡수 할 수 있는 넓은 흡수 대역, 비교적 높은 흡수 계수 ($>{\sim}10^5cm^{-1}$) 및 전자의 이동도 등으로 인하여 연구가 활발히 진행되고 있다. InGaN 박막 태양전지의 경우 ITO 층을 전류확산 층으로 많이 사용되는데, 일반적으로 평평한 박막의 형태를 갖는다. 이 평면 ITO 층에 dot을 형성하게 되면 상대적인 굴절률의 차이를 감소시켜 반사되는 빛의 양을 감소시킬 수 있어 태양전지가 흡수할 수 있는 빛의 양을 증가시켜 태양전지의 효율을 향상시킬 수 있다. 또한, 장파장대의 빛의 경우 투과도가 높아 태양전지의 흡수 층을 투과할 가능성을 인하여 효율이 저하될 수 있다. 따라서 반사판을 사용하게 되면 빛의 광학적 경로를 증가시켜 효율을 향상시킬 수 있다. 알루미늄의 경우 InGaN 태양전지의 흡수대역에서 반사도가 90% 이상으로 알려져 있어 반사판으로 사용되기에 적절하여 많이 사용되고 있다. 본 연구에서는 FDTD 툴을 이용하여 ITO dot과 알루미늄 반사판을 이용하여 효율이 향상된 InGaN 박막태양전지의 시뮬레이션을 수행하였다. ITO dot이 존재하는 전류 확산층과 알루미늄 반사판의 투과도 및 반사율을 먼저 계산한 후 태양전지 구조에 적용하여 전류-전압 특성, 외부 양자효율 특성을 예측하였다. Fig. 1은 시뮬레이션된 InGaN 박막태양전지의 구조이다.

The risk of transverse cracking in concrete decks of composite bridges is affected by many factors related to the bridge design, materials, and construction. Among others, the thermal and shrinkage stresses are the most important factors that affect the transverse cracking in early-age concrete decks. The thermal stress at the concrete deck is mainly affected by both ambient temperature and solar radiation. The shrinkage stress at the general strength concrete deck is mainly affected by drying shrinkage and the high strength concrete deck is mainly affected by autogeneous shrinkage. Three-dimensional finite element models of composite bridges were made to investigate the stress due to thermal and shrinkage stress.

본 연구에서는 고휘도 백라이트에 있어서 일반적으로 휘도 향상을 위해서 사용하는 프리즘 혹은 편광프리즘 등의 고가의 기능성 광학시트를 사용하지 않고, 확산시트만을 사용하여 고성능의 BLU 를 제조할 수 있는 핵심부품으로서 프리즘 도광판에 대해서 연구하였다. 고휘도 프리즘 도광판을 구현하는 방법으로 먼저, 광학적으로 시뮬레이션을 통해서 가능성을 검증하고, 기본적인 광학구조의 설계를 수행한 후, 이를 stamper 방식의 사출성형으로 실물을 구현하여 설계의 재현성을 확인하는데 역정을 두었다. 실험결과, 17 inch, 두께 8 mm 사양의 모니터용 도광판에 있어서, 고휘도 BLU를 구현하기 위해서 도광판 밑면과 윗면에 프리즘 구조를 부가한 도광판의 경우에 기존의 인쇄형 도광판보다 약 20%의 휘도향상 효과를 확인할 수 있었으며, 향후 확산시트만을 사용한 고휘도 백라이트로의 응용가능성을 검증할 수 있었다.

A simplified method for the calculation of buckling and vibrational characteristics of initially stressed rectangular plate and antisymmetric angle-ply laminated plates is presented in this paper using the natural frequencies under unloading state. The equation of motion of rectangular plate with two opposite edges simply supported is investigated on the basis of Rayleigh-Ritz method and Mindlin plate theory with effect of the curvature term. The relationships of the non-dimensional natural frequencies with initial stresses the coeffcients of critical buckling and the boundaries of the dynamic principal instability region can be characterized by the non-dimensional natureal frequencies under unloading state. Numerical examples are presented to verify the simplified equations and to illustrate potential applications of the analysis.

The purpose of this study is to analyse and compare experimentally flexural behavior of RC beams strengthened with CFRP plates by different methods, and finally suggest the evaluation equations of flexural capacity of RC beams with the aim of application of prestressed CFRP strengthening. The experimental parameters are compressive strength, reinforcement ratio, prestressing level and strengthening methods. The non-prestressed specimens failed on account of separation of the plates from the beams due to premature de-bonding, while most of the prestressed specimens failed due to CFRP plate fracture. The evaluation equations of flexural capacity of RC beams is suggested and these equations have a good reliability in predicting flexural strength of RC beams.
