As online commerce increases, the construction of large logistics buildings worldwide is exploding. Most of these buildings have the characteristics of long span and heavy loaded and use precast concrete components, a pin joint structure, for rapid construction. However, due to construction safety and structural stability requirements, the pin joint structure has many limitations in terms of the erection of the PC member, which increases the time and cost. A structural frame connected with steel joints between precast concrete components, called a SMART frame, has been developed, which addresses these constraints and risks. However, the effect of the appllication of a SMART frame on the time aspect has not been analysed. The study is a time reduction effect analysis of a SMART frame for long span and heavy loaded logistics buildings. For this study, the authors select a case site erected using existing PC components, and compare the time reduction with the SMART frame erection simulations. Through this analysis, it was found that a time reduciton about 4 months, approximately 48% of the conventional PC installation period could be achieved. If the SMART frame is applied when carrying out future large-scale logistics building projects, it can be expected to have the effect of significantly shortening the construction period compared to the conventional method.

In this paper, we introduce a novel feeding method for a broadband planar quasi-Yagi antenna (QYA) for terrestrial digital television (DTV) receiving. The balun between the balanced coplanar strip (CPS) line feeding the driver dipole and the unblanaced microstrip line is a rectangular patch inserted into the CPS line along the center of the CPS. The end of the balun is connected to the CPS line through a shorting pin. The effects of various geometrical parameters and balun on the antenna characteristics are examined. An antenna, as an design example for the proposed antenna, is designed for the operation in the frequency band of 470-806 MHz for terrestrial DTV.

In this paper, we studied a design method for a broadband 3-element quasi-Yagi antenna (QYA) for indoor digital television (DTV) reception. The proposed QYA employs a novel balun between a microstrip (MS) line and a coplanar strip (CPS) line feeding the driver dipole. The proposed balun is constructed by connecting the end of MS line to CPS line through a shorting pin, and the CPS and ground reflector are connected through a circular ring-type conductor. An antenna, as an design example for the proposed antenna, is designed for the operation in the frequency band of 470-806 MHz for terrestrial DTV. The antenna fabricated on an FR4 substrate with a size of $270mm{\times}150mm$ showed a good performance such as a frequency band of 470-820 MHz for a voltage standing wave ratio < 2, a gain > 4.0 dBi, and a front-to-back ratio > 8.4 dB over the DTV frequency band.

In this paper, a design method for a quasi-Yagi antenna (QYA) suitable for UHF band is studied. Due to the mutual coupling between a coplanar strip (CPS)-fed planar dipole and a conducting strip director placed close to the dipole, the dipole obtains broadband characteristics. A ground reflector improves gain in the lower frequency band, and the antenna size might be reduced by employing a bent reflector. The balun between the CPS line and the microstrip(MS) line is constructed by connecting the end of MS line and the CPS line through a shorting pin. In addition, a ring-type conductor connects the CPS line and reflector. The effects of various geometrical parameters and balun on the antenna characteristics are examined. An antenna, as an design example for the proposed antenna, is designed for the operation in the frequency band of 470-806 MHz for terrestrial DTV.

Since the engineering plastics having a melting point of higher than 300 degrees have a high mechanical rigidity, chemical resistance, friction and abrasion performance, those are being highlighted as metal replacement materials in various industries. In this study, 3D printer nozzle with excellent heat dissipation characteristics are designed and analytically verified to form engineering plastics with high melting points in 3D printers based on the melt-lamination modeling method. In order to insulate between the heat block heated to a melting point of filament material and the upper part of the nozzle where the filament is transferred, the heat brake part with low thermal conductivity was designed to have two separate parts, and a cooling fin structure is further applied to the heat brake part to lower steady-state temperature by air convection. Optimized structural design on FDM nozzle part reduces the temperature at the heat sink and at the end part of heat brake by 50% and 14% respectively, compared to the conventional BCnozzle structure.

A GPS receiving antenna installed in the missile's warhead is designed and fabricated at a center frequency 1.575 GHz. The circular shaped antenna is installed in the middle of the warhead where the antenna's patch and the ground plane are connected with a hollow cylindrical shaped short pin. Using the dual feeding and phase difference method, an omni-directional radiation pattern which direction is normal to the missile's axis(H-plane) is obtained. The optimized diameters of the circular patch and the cylindrical ring typed shorting pin of the GPS receiving antenna which use the FR4.material(dielectric constant $\varepsilon_r=4.6$) are 59.5 mm and 14 mm, respectively. The cylindrical body with diameter 100 mm and height 500 mm is attached to the lower part of the warhead in order to complete the missile figure. The radiation patterns are measured by changing the angle and phase between the dual feeding points. When the phase difference of dual feeding is $100^{\circ}$ and the angle between the dual feeding points is $100^{\circ}$, the nearly omni-directional radiation pattern in the H-plane is obtained. In this case, the antenna gain is -5.55 dBd and the relative level difference between the maximum and the minimum radiation intensity is 3.98 dB.

In this paper, a method of enhancing the bandwidth of a double-dipole quasi-Yagi antenna (DDQYA) using a modified integrated balun is presented. The modified integrated balun consists of a microstrip (MS) line inserted along the center of a coplanar strip (CPS) line and the end of the MS line is connected to the CPS line through a shorting pin at the feed point. The geometry of the modified integrated balun is adjusted to improve the bandwidth of the DDQYA. In addition, the performance of the proposed balun in a back-to-back configuration is compared with a conventional balun. The proposed antenna with the optimized modified integrated balun is fabricated on an FR4 substrate, and the experiment results show that the antenna has a frequency band of 1.56-3.04 GHz(64.4%) for a VSWR < 2, which shows enhanced bandwidth compared to the DDQYA with the conventional balun.

In this study, to describe vehicle-structure dynamic interaction phenomena with 1/4 vehicle model, nonlinear Hertzian contact spring and nonlinear contact damper are adopted. The external loads acting on 1/4 vehicle model are selfweight of vehicle and geometry information of running surface. The constraint equation on contact surface is implemented by the Penalty method with stabilization and the reaction from constraint violation. To describe pitching motion of various vehicles two types of the displacement constraint equations are exerted to connect between car bodies and between bogie frames, i.e., the rigid body connection and the rigid body connection with pin, respectively. For the time integration of dynamic equations of vehicles and structure Newmark time integration scheme is adopted. To reduce the error caused by inadequate time step size, adaptive time-stepping technique is also adopted. Thus, it is expected that more versatile dynamic interaction phenomena can be described by this approach and it can be applied to various railway dynamic problems with low computational cost.

The electrolyte of the capacitor in mobile phone chargers leaks to the power input terminal resulting in tracking on the PCB board to form a carbonized conductive path. As a result of structural analysis of the cause of the tracking, It occurred when the power input terminal and the PCB board were connected directly using the connector. The larger the amount of electrolyte leaked from the capacitor into the power input terminal, or the lower the height of the partition provided between the plug pins of the power input terminal, the higher the tracking occurrence rate. Accordingly, to lower the occurrence rate of tracking in the charger, it is necessary to provide a partition on the capacitor or increase the height of the partition provided on the power input terminal so that the leaked electrolyte does not flow to the power input terminal. In addition, the tracking occurrence rate will be reduced further if the shape of the PCB board touching ther power connection terminal is changed to ${\Pi}$.
