Active earth pressure formula, which can consider the effects of ground surface inclination, inclination of inside retaining wall face, wall friction, line load, uniform load, soil cohesion and adhesion, was derived based on the force equilibrium principle. In order to verify the accuracy of this proposed formula, the calculated active earth pressures by the proposed formula were compared with those of graphical solutions. Also, the active earth pressures determined by the proposed formula were compared with those by Coulomb's, Rankine's and Mazindrani's solution under specific conditions. The results matched quite well not only with the graphical solutions but also with those by three other methods. Also, the trend of active earth pressures by the proposed formula were corresponded with results of experimental study by Fang, et al. It can be concluded that this generalized formula not only can overcome the limitations of Rankine's, Coulomb's and Mazindrani's active earth pressure formula but also can consider the external loading conditions.

In order to obtain the basic data for synthetic studies of bioactive peptide using enzyme, Kyotorphin(analgesic peptide) derivative was synthesized from Ac-Tyr-OH and $Arg-NH_2$ by $\alpha-chymotrysin$ in two phase system(organic phase and aqueous phase). In effect of organic solvent on Kyotorphin derivative synthesis from Ac-Tyr-OH(10 mM) and $Arg-NH_2$ (20 mM), the synthesis in ethyl acetate system of organic solvents was higher than those in other organic solvents (n-butanol, n-hexane, dichloromethane and chloroform). The optimal conditions for the synthesis are as follows: enzyme conc., 10 ${\mu}M;$ reaction pH, 7.0; reaction temp., $35^{\circ}C$ ; the ratio of organic phase volume/aqueous phase volume $(\alpha)$, 15. Under the optimal conditions, the yield was 70.2%, and the reaction achieved to equilibrium after 24 hrs.

In this paper, a method to overcome inefficiency of the finite element method in the calculation of compressive strength of one-sided stiffened plates, is proposed. In this method the collapse modes of stiffened plates are assumed as follows. a) Overall buckling $\rightarrow$ Overall collapse b) Local buckling $\rightarrow$ Overall collapse c) Local buckling $\rightarrow$ Local collapse In each collapse mode, shape of deflection is assumed, and then elastic large deformation analysis based on the Rayleigh-Ritz method is carried out. One-sided stiffening effect is considered by taking into account of the moment due to eccentricity. Plastic analysis by assuming hinge lines is also carried out. The ultimate strength of a stiffened plate is obtained as the point of intersection of the elastic analysis curve and the plastic one. From this study, it is concluded that the angles between the plastic hinge lines in plastic collapse mode are determined as the ones which give the minimum collapse load, and these angles are different from the ones assumed in the previous studies. Minimum stiffness ratios can also be calculated. Calculated results according to this method show good agreements with the results by the finite element method.

This paper presents an analysis of the chaotic behavior in the discrete-time voltage mode chaotic generator fabricated using 0.8${\mu}{\textrm}{m}$ single poly CMOS technology. An approximated empirical equation is extracted from the measurement data of a nonlinear function block. Then the bifurcation diagram is simulated according to input variables and Lyapunov exponent λ which represent a dependence on an initial value is calculated. We show the interrelations among time waveforms, state transition, and power spectra for the state condition of chaotic circuit, such as equilibrium, periodic, and chaotic state. And results of experiments in the chaotic circuit with the $\pm$2.5V power supply and sampling clock frequency of 10KHz are shown and compared with the simulated results.

This study deals with the nonlinear strength analysis of laminated composite cylindrical shells to find the optimum structure of pressure vessel. By applying the F.E.M. using the 8-node degenerated Isoparametric shell element and Total Lagrangian formulation and being adopted Newton-Raphson method with incremental load as a solution scheme. the optimum structure is found from the viewpoint of minimum displacement. As a results of linear analysis on the 9 cases of laminated structure, $[50^{\circ}/-50^{\circ}]$ composition of the shell laminate give the minimum deflection. In case of the nonlinear analysis by applying Quadratic Failure Criteria on laminated combination $[{\theta}^{\circ}/-{\theta}^{\circ}]$, shell laminate structure of ${\theta}=50^{\circ}$ under external uniform pressure was founded as a optimum structure and ${\theta}=50^{\circ}$ for the case of external and axial loading combined.

The purpose of this paper is to study comparative analysis of cable dome structures by reinforcement effect with bracing and fabric. Tensegrity systems are stable structures which are reticulated spatial structures composed of compressive straight members, struts, and cables. Tensegrity structures need to be introduced to the initial stress for the self-equilibrated system to have a stable state. In this paper, the effect of reinforcement resisting the in-plan twisting is investigated for the Geiger-type and Zetlin-type models reinforced by bracing and fabric. The effect of initial imperfection is also studied because the structural instabilitity phenomenon of shell-like structures is very sensitive according to the initial condition. We study a more exact analysis concerning the structural instability of tensegrity structures using nonlinear analysis program. Then, two types of tensegrity models will be analysed and compared.

This paper describes the application of discretized continuum-type optimality criteria (DCOC) and the development of optimum design program for the multispan partially prestressed concrete beams. The cost of construction as objective function which includes the costs of concrete, prestressing steel, non-prestressing steel and formwork is minimized. The design constraints include limits on the maximum deflection, flexural and shear strengths, in addition to ductility requirements, and upper and lower bounds on design variables as stipulated by the design Code. Based on Kuhn-Tucker necessary conditions, the optimality criteria are explicitly derived in terms of the design variables-effective depth, eccentricity of prestressing steel and non-prestressing steel ratio. The prestressing profile is prescribed by parabolic functions. The self-weight of the structure is included in the equilibrium equation of the real system, as is the secondary effect resulting from the prestressing force. An iterative procedure and computer program for updating the design variables are developed. Two numerical examples of multispan PPC beams with rectangular cross-section are solved to show the applicability and efficiency of the DCOC-based technique.

Generally, container arrangement has been carried out based on the Classification guidelines. However, guidelines provide only container securing forces for the given container arrangement and Classification requirements of the forces. In order to design container arrangement additional information is needed such as container securing forces and arrangement that accounts for lashing bridges, vertical lashing, vertical center of gravity (VCG), and maximum stack weight. Trial and error method using the existing guidelines requires excessive amount of calculation time and cannot provide accurate results of the calculations. In order to fulfill this need, a new container securing system has been established based on the equilibrium conditions that include lashing bridges and vertical lashing. An optimization algorithm has been developed for the new system since current optimization methods such as genetic algorithms and evolution strategies are unsuitable for the container securing problems, which involve equality constraint. Design variables are container weights of tier and objective function is either total container weight or VCG of a stack. The newly developed system provides optimum arrangement of containers for both maximum stack weight and maximum VCG. It also greatly reduces time for designing container arrangement.

하천에서 하도불안정(stream instability)으로 인하여 하상의 형태가 변화하고 하상파(sand wave)가 발생한다. 사련(ripple), 사구(dune) 등과 같은 하상파는 흐름저항을 유발하여 홍수시 수위를 증가시킨다. 수리실험 및 수치모형을 이용하여 사련 및 사구의 발달과정 그리고 이를 지나는 난류흐름에 대한 연구가 국외에서는 이루어지고 있지만 국내의 경우 거의 찾아보기 힘들다. 수치모형을 활용한 연구는 주로 횡방향으로 하상파가 일정하다는 가정하에 연직 2차원 수치모형을 적용하였으나 최근 컴퓨터 기술 및 수치기법의 고도화로 3차원 RANS(Reynolds averaged Navier-Stokes) 또는 LES(Large eddy simulation)를 이용한 수치모형이 개발되고 있다. 본 연구에서는 LES에 유사이송 및 하상변동 모형과 결합하여 사구발달에 대한 수치모의를 수행하였다. LES와 유사이송 및 하상변동 모형의 결합은 순간유속성분을 하상변동모형에 직접 적용되기 때문에 난류영향을 고려할 수 있는 것이 장점이다. 특히 사구의 발달에 따라 복잡한 흐름이 발생하며 3차원 와구조가 발생하므로 난류특성의 고려는 필수적이다. 수치모의는 Delft Hydraulics (Bakker et al., 1986)에서 수행한 수리실험 T39를 활용하였다. 수리실험은 길이 100 m, 폭 0.5 m 개수로에서 수행되었으며 평균유속은 0.611 m/s, 수심은 0.436 m이다. 하상파 실험에 사용된 유사입경은 0.78 mm 균일사를 사용하였다. 수치모의 조건은 수리실험과 동일하게 하였으나 계산시간의 효율을 고려하여 흐름방향의 계산영역은 4.0 m로 하고 주기경계조건(periodic boundary condition)을 부여하여 계산을 수행하였다. 수치모의 계산은 사구의 길이 및 파고가 평형상태에 이를 때까지 수행되었다. 수치모의 통해 사구발달에 따른 흐름 및 하상변동 특성을 분석하였다.

Permeable reactive barriers (PRBs) technology can be applied to contaminated groundwater remediation. It is necessary to select adequate reactive material according to contaminant characterization. In groundwater. In this research, the reaction between reactive material and heavy metal contaminants was estimated through batch test. Reactive material was slag, which has been produced in Gwangyang power plant, and heavy metal contaminants were cadmium, lead and copper. Batch test consisted of two testes: 1) sorption equilibrium test and 2) sorption kinetic test. Sorption equilibrium test was performed for estimating slag sorption capacity against contaminants. And sorption kinetic test was performed for slag sorption rate with contaminants species, contaminants initial concentration and sulfate. Sorption capacity and sorption rate were affected by contaminant species. Sorption rate increased with increasing initial concentration in lead and copper but decreased with increasing initial concentration in cadmium. Sorption rate increased in existing sulfate. In low concentration, film diffusion was domain mechanism, and in high concentration, particle diffusion was domain mechanism.
