In lateral ground flow, slope stability, and land slide problems, H-piles have been often used for a horizontally deforming ground to prevent the failure of mass of soil in a downward and outward movement of a slope. Here, Theoretical equations are derived to estimate the lateral force, assuming that the Mohr-coulomb's Plastic states occures in the ground just around H-piles. In this study, the mechanism of lateral force acting on passive pile that is in a row, situated in the ground undergoing plastic deformation was discussed, and its theoretical analysis was carried out considering the interval between H-piles. The solution of the theoretical equation derived from here showed resonable characteristic for constants of soil as well as for the interval, widths, and heights of H-pile.

It is important to estimate exactly wave forces acting on various types of offshore structures under the severe environmental conditions in the ocean site. This paper presents an easy experimental method which deals with transient waves. The proposed scheme made it possible to generate breaking waves at any position in the wave tank by changing the maximum slope of the component waves. The theoretical and experimental methods were investigated by generating concentrated waves which acted on a single and multiple cylinders. The waves forces increased rapidly when the models encountered breaking waves. The theoretical results underestimates the forces due to breaking waves. Therefore, the effects due to breaking waves should be considered carefully in the design process of a structure under the influence of breaking waves.

In this paper, the wave and current forces acting on cylinders are investigated by theoretical and experimental methods. The models used are one-cylinder, four-cylinder and semi-submersible types. The theoretical investigations are carried out by the Morison equation and three dimensional source distribution method to calculate exciting forces in waves with and without currents. The experimental investigations are carried out in the wave tank which can generate currents in both directions. In these tests, the models have been exposed to the regular waves with and without currents. It is shown that the exciting forces acting on the one-cylinder or four-cylinders can be approximately estimated by the Morison equation and also by the diffraction theory. However, the Morison equation seems to be not appropriate to estimate the exciting forces on the present type of semi-submersible.

Formulation of the far-field method for the prediction of time-mean hydrodynamic force and moment acting on a 3-D surface-piercing body in waves is reviewed. It is found that the inequality between the weight of the floating body and its buoyancy force permits the replacement of the fluid particles inside the control surface by the fluid particles outside the control surface. Under such circumstances, momentum exchanges across the control surface make the time-mean value of the time rate of the momentum of the fluid inside the control surface non-vanishing. It is a second-order quantity which is hard to calculate by the far-field method. The drift forces and moments on half-immersed ellipsoids are calculated by both the far-field method and the near-field method. The discrepancy between two numerical results is presented and discussed.

In this paper, we study Lipschitz continuous, the boundedness and compactness of the composition operator $C_{\phi}$ acting between the general hyperbolic Bloch type-classes ${\mathcal{B}}^{\ast}_{p,{\log},{\alpha}}$ and general hyperbolic Besov-type classes $F^{\ast}_{p,{\log}}(p,q,s)$. Moreover, these classes are shown to be complete metric spaces with respect to the corresponding metrics.

This paper reports on the mixed lubrication characteristics between the cam and the tappet contact surface of direct acting type valve train systems. First, the dynamic characteristics are solved by using the lumped mass method to determine the load conditions at the contact point. Then, the minimum oil film thickness is calculated with consideration of elastohydrodynamic line contact theory and the friction force is obtained by using the mixed lubrication model which separates the hydrodynamic and the boundary friction. Finally, the average surface temperatures are calculated by using the flash temperature theory. The results show that, there are some peaks in the friction force due to the asperity contact friction, and flash temperature at the position of minimum oil film thickness. It is thought that there is a relationship between the surface temperature and cam surface wear, and therefore, the analysis on the worn cam profile has been performed.

This study predicts muscle forces acting on the lower extremity when the knee joint is in deep flexion. The whole body was approximated as a link model, and then the moment equilibrium equations at the lower extremity joints were derived far given reaction farces against the ground. Measurement of deep flexion was carried out by placing ten markers on the body. This study calculated the moment acting at each Joint from the equations of force and moment, classified the complicated muscles around the knee joint, and then predicted the muscle forces to balance the joint moment. Two models were proposed in this study: the simpler one that consists of three groups of muscle and the more detailed one of nine groups of muscle.

In this study, we carried out a structural analysis for determining the stresses acting on the tempered glass of a freely falling cellular phone using ANSYS 13.0, commercial finite element code. We designed a phone heavier than any contemporary cellular phone and performed finite element analysis using the falling speed at a height of 104 cm, which is equal to of the average leg length of Koreans. By determining the maximum stress acting on the phone's tempered glass and frame, we identified the location of large deformation. Furthermore, we evaluated the maximum/minimum equivalent stress and deformation of the reinforced glass and frame as functions of time.

Expression of light-harvesting chlorophyll a/b-binding protein gene(cab) is repressed in the dark and activited by light. However, the detail of its regulatory mechanism is not characterized so far. To identify the interactions of cis-acting elements and trans-acting factors involvedin this regulation, nuclear extracts from the light-grown and dark-adapted Arabidopsis thaliana leaves were anlayzed for mobility shift assay against 134bp fragments had two retarded bands and one retardation band, respectively, both in light-grown and dark-adapted bands in the dark-adapted tissues. A new retardation the cab 3 expression in the dark. Several light regulatory motifs are scattered in the 146 bp region of cab 3 promoter. One of the light-regulatory motifs could be the binding site for the negative regulatory factor.

This paper is a report on the parametric study of the friction characteristics on the direct acting type OHC valve train system. The numerical simulation was performed by using the IV-TAP. Dynamic analysis by using the lumped mass method was previously performed to define the acting load. The friction characteristics were analyzed by using the partial asperity contact model. The effects of operating conditions and major design parameters on the total driving torque were investigated. From the analytical prediction, it is found that valve spring stillness, surface roughness, and base circle radius are the main factors to reduce the frictional loss on the valve train system.
