Sleepers perform bearing rails and are underneath rails. Therefore, the current and voltage of rails are related to the resistance of sleepers. In case that the resistance of sleepers are low, operation problems of relays in tr ack circuits are occur because of flowing leakage current through sleepers. So the condition that the track circuit is always occupied by a train is kept. Currently, the creosote has been used in wood sleepers due to prevention against putrefaction. After a long time, the material is changeable to the chemistry material bases on carbon dioxide or carbon. So, the insulation resistance of wood sleepers is lower than the initial insulation resistance. In case of effecting wood sleepers as conductors, amplitude of the current and voltage on rails is decreased. This phenomenon causes that a train does not receive signals. In this paper, four-network model on the track circuit including the insulation resistance of sleepers is suggested. Also, the standard value of the resistance in straight section is proposed in the wood sleeper.

A method of measuring Q of a two port cavity by scattering parameters is proposed. The scattering parameters of a two port cavity resonator are derived by a lumped equivalent circuit model as a function of cavity parameters, including the cavity Q. These can be also obtained by direct measurement with a modern network analyzer, The results show good agreement with those from other well-known methods. This two port measurement can provide additional information such as the coupled power ratio, which is one of the important parameters for the beam accelerating cavities.

Subthreshold current model is presented using analytical potential distribution of junctionless cylindrical surrounding-gate (CSG) MOSFET and threshold voltage shift is analyzed by this model. Junctionless CSG MOSFET is significantly outstanding for controllability of gate to carrier flow due to channel surrounded by gate. Poisson's equation is solved using parabolic potential distribution, and subthreshold current model is suggested by center potential distribution derived. Threshold voltage is defined as gate voltage corresponding to subthreshold current of $0.1{\mu}A$, and compared with result of two dimensional simulation. Since results between this model and 2D simulation are good agreement, threshold voltage shift is investigated for channel dimension and doping concentration of junctionless CSG MOSFET. As a result, threshold voltage shift increases for large channel radius and oxide thickness. It is resultingly shown that threshold voltage increases for the large difference of doping concentrations between source/drain and channel.

현재 원전의 내진해석 절차에는 수직방향의 동적해석모델을 집중질량-보요소 모델로 나타내고 있으나, 층슬래브이 동적유연성을 합리적으로 고려할 수 있는 기준이 마련되어 있지 않다. 본 연구에서는 벽체로 지지된 4변고정 슬래브를 유한요소모델 및 집중질량모델로 이상화한 후 고유치해석 및 시간이력해석을 수행한 결과, 현재 층슬래브의 수직응답을 얻기 위해 통상적으로 사용되는 일련의 단자유도계 모델은 이에 상응하는 유한요소모델의 각 모드에 대한 평균응답밖에 주지 못함을 확인하였고, 각 모드 층슬래브의 최대응답을 얻기 위해서는 각 고유진동수가 최소한 이자유도계로 모델링되어야 하며, 이때 이자유도계에 분배할 질량 및 연결보의 강성크기가 각각 1:5와 1:6일때 잘 일치함을 확인하였다. 또한 이렇게 결정된 모델링 방법은 실제 전단벽 구조물의 해석을 통해 그 적용성이 입증되었다.

To calculate seismic fragility, it is important to select input earthquake ground motions that can properly express the characteristics of the target site. This study analyzed the seismic fragility of a single-degree-of-freedom (SDOF) model based on input earthquake ground motions in strong and low-to-moderate seismic regions. As a first step, a total of four sets of input earthquake ground motions were selected,: two sets measured near or far from overseas strong earthquake records and two sets exhibiting the characteristics of low-to-moderate earthquake regions in South Korea. A nonlinear SDOF model for three natural periods was applied to the target structure, and incremental dynamic analysis was used for fragility analysis. In addition, four damage states were defined, and seismic fragility results for each natural period of the nonlinear SDOF model for the four aforementioned input earthquake ground motion sets were obtained for each damage state.

This study presents key parameters for the structure installed with MR controller in reducing its responses. MR controller is regarded as Bingham model of which control forces are frictional and viscous ones. The parameters are identified as friction force ratios, $R_f$ and $R_h$ which are, respectively, ratio of MR controller friction force to static restoring force for free vibration and ratio of the friction force to amplitude of harmonic force. Structure-MR controller system shows nonlinear response behavior due to friction force. Energy balance strategy is adopted to transform the behavior to linear one with equivalent damping ratio. Finally, proposed equivalent linear process is compared to the nonlinear one, which turns out to give acceptably good results.

In this paper single degree of freedom macro-element model was presented to investigate the interaction between soil and the deep foundation under the lateral loads. It was made by modelling each component related to the soil-structure interaction and combining them into one piece. It enhanced the conventional method that was not able to break down the interaction components in piece due to the usage of simple spring element for interaction. A proposed macro-element classified the stress components in relation to the interaction into frictional and compressive resistance. Each component was modelled using the classical plasticity theory, and finally combined in parallel. An example study was carried out using the proposed macro-element for deep foundation embedded in three layered cohesive soil. It showed improved results compared to the conventional method by producing additional information of the interaction components as well as the overall behavior of foundation.

본 논문에서는 다중 유리창의 STL값을 예측하는 방법에 대해 연구하였다. 유리창의 크기는 무한하다고 가정하였으며 음향 4단자방법을 이용하였으나 기존의 모델과는 달리 음파의 입사는 오나전한 확산음장이 아닌 각도에 따른 변화가 있다고 가정하였으며 또한 지지부의 댐핑도 고려하였다. 본 연구에서 제시된 방법을 사용하여 이중 및 삼중창의 여러가지 경우에 대해 계측치와 비교하였다. 본 방법은 유리가 아닌 강판, 석고보다 등 일반적인 탄성체와 흡음재가 배열된 경우에도 적용이 가능하나 여러 계측치와의 비교를 통해 문제점 및 응용성에 대해서 언급하였다.

The seismic control effect of reinforced concrete structures with low energy dissipating capacity due to stiffness degradation is investigated through nonlinear time history analysis. The primary structure is idealized as a SDOF system of modified Takeda hysteresis rule and an elasto-perfectly-plastic nonlinear spring is added to represent a hysteretic damping device. Based on statistics of the numerical analysis, equivalent linearization techniques are evaluated, and empirical equations for response prediction are proposed. As a result, estimation of the ductility demand with proposed empirical equations is more desirable than the equivalent linearization techniques. The optimal yield strengths based on empirical equations are significantly different from the optimal yield strength of elasto-perfectly-plastic systems. Also, the results indicate that the reduction effect of the ductility demand is more remarkable for smaller natural periods.

This study evaluated the effect of vibration, level of lateral yielding strength, site conditions, ductility factor, strain-hardening ratio, and post-capping ratio of the strength limited bilinear SDF systems on the inelastic displacement ratio. The nonlinear response history analysis was conducted using 240 ground motions which were collected at the sites classified as site classes B, C, and D according to the NEHRP. To account for the P-$\Delta$ effects, this study considered negative stiffness ratios ranging from -0.1 to -0.5 of elastic stiffness. Four different damping ratios are used: 2, 5, 10, and 20%. From this study, an equation of inelastic displacement ratio was proposed using nonlinear regression analysis.
