The stability ratio and vibrational amplitude of each tube inside a steam generator have different values. We estimate the characteristics of flow-induced vibration for CE type steam generator with various column and row number of the tube. To obtain the thermal-hydraulic data and stability ratio we use the ATHOS3 and PIAT-FEI/TE code respectively. It turns out that the steam generator has a bounded central zone which the distributed values of the stability ratio and the vibrational amplitude, and those values across the zone boundary become decreased.

We are often faced with the task of having to estimate the amplitude of a source signal in the presence of a background. In the simplest case, the background can be taken as being flat, and of unknown magnitude B, and the source signal of interest assumed to be the amplitude A of a peak of known shape and position. We present a robust method to find the most probable values of A and B by applying the one-dimensional Newton-Raphson method. In the derivation of the formula, we adopted the Bayesian statistics and assmumed Poisson distribution so that the results could be applied to the analysis of very weak signals, as observed in FIMS (Far-ultraviolet IMaging Spectrogaph).

The experimental results of fatigue crack propagation under constant amplitude loading show that intra-and inter-specimen variability exist. In this paper, a stochastic model for the estimation of mean and variance of crack propagation life is presented To take into account the intra-specimen variability, the material resistance against crack propagation is treated as an 1-dimensional spatial stochastic process, i. e. random field, varying along the propagation path. For the inter-specimen variability, C in paris equation is assumed to be a random variable. Compared with experimental results reported, the present method well estimate the variation in fatigue crack propagation life. And it is confirmed that the thicker the specimen thickness is, the less the variation of propagation life is.

This paper describes probabilistic characteristics of damping in a tall building based on the results of full-scale measurement. It is found, through statistical analysis of the damping data, that the probability density function(PDF) of damping at the high amplitude plateau can be well represented by Normal distribution (Gaussian distribution). A stochastic damping model is proposed to estimate amplitude-dependent damping for practical application.

This paper focuses on the computational study of nonlinear effects of unsteady aerodynamics for non-classical aileron buzz. It aims at a comprehensive investigation of the aileron buzz phenomenon under varying flow parameters using the describing function technique with multiple inputs. The limit cycle oscillatory behavior of an asymmetrical airfoil is studied initially using a CFD-based numerical model and direct time marching. Sharp increases in limit cycle amplitude for varying Mach numbers and angles of attack are investigated. An aerodynamic describing function is developed in order to estimate the variation of limit cycle amplitude and frequency with Mach number and angle of attack directly, without time marching. The describing function results are compared to the amplitudes and frequencies predicted by the CFD calculations for validation purposes. Furthermore, a limited sensitivity analysis is presented to demonstrate the potential of the approach for aeroelastic design.

Na and Ca effects on contracture were studied in order to estimate Na/Ca exchange ratio in the isolated atrial muscle of the rabbit. All experiments were performed in tris-buffered Tyrode solution which was being aerated with 100% $O_2\;and\;kept\;at\;37^{circ}C$. To load intracellular $Na^+,\;10{-6}M$ ouabain or K-free solution were used. Contractures were induced by brier exposure of atrial muscle to Tyrode solution containing various concentrations of Ca or of Na. The results obtained were as follows: 1 ) Increasing the extracellular Ca concentration, the amplitude of contracture also increased and was maximum at 8 mM Ca-Tyrode solution. 2) The relationship between extracellular Ca concentrations and relative amplitude of the contractures showed hyperbolic pattern. By using Hill plot, the line has the slope of 1 12 which means the number of Ca binding sites of the carrier in the cell membrane. 3) The amplitude of the contracture was maximum in 0 mM Na-Tyrode solution and decreased in dose dependent manner when the Na concentration increased. 4) When the relationship between extracellular Na concentrations and the amplitude of contractures was expressed as dose-response curve, the curve showed sigmoid pattern. The line with the slope of 2.82 was obtained by using Hill plot. 5) From above all the results, it is suggested that exchange ratio of Na and Ca via Na/ca exchange system in the atrial muscle of rabbit could be 3:1 approximately.

When ships are sailing with large motions in rough waves, the slamming phenomenon occurs and the ships suffer from impulsive pressure loadings. Recently, ships are becoming lager and faster than before and it becomes more possible that the ships experience larger impacts on their bows and sterns. Many researchers have been performing the investigations on slamming experimentally and theoretically for a long time. Most of the research reported in the open literature focused on how to accurately estimate the amplitude of the peak pressure of slamming. According to the results of a recently published work, not only the amplitude of peak pressure but also the width of the peak may play an important role in predicting the extents of damage of impacted structures. The uncertainty of impulsive pressure loadings due to slamming has been indicated by many researchers. However, probabilistic treatments of the impulsive pressure loadings are few. In this study, drop tests were conducted on wedges having dead-rise angles of $0^{\circ}$ and $10^{\circ}$. Not only the amplitude of peak pressure but also the width of peak pressure were measured. Furthermore, the variations of those values are also provided for the probabilistic approach of the slamming problem.

가스 하이드레이트의 탐사에서 탄성파 진폭과 주파수 특성은 가스 하이드레이트의 부존 여부에 대한 매우 중요한 판단 근거이다. 본 연구에서 탄성파 진폭특성은 탄성파 수치모델링 기법을 이용하여 음원 주파수 및 산란체의 크기에 따른 변화 양상을 파악하고자 하였다. 일반적으로 진폭에 큰 영향을 미치는 산란은 음원의 주파수 제곱에 비례하고 산란 이상체의 체적에 비례한다. 음원의 주파수가 높아질수록 가스 하이드레이트 지층에서의 산란이 심하여 BSR이 잘 나타나지 않는 반면 음원의 주파수가 낮아질수록 가스 하이드레이트 지층의 진폭공백대 특성이 잘 나타나고 또한 하부의 BSR이 보다 뚜렷히 보이나 해상도가 낮아지게 된다. 가스 하이드레이트 지층 하부의 Free-Gas층을 통과한 반사파는 고주파수 성분이 감쇠되어 저주파수 성분이 우세해지고, Free-Gas로 인하여 나타나는 BSR의 진폭은 극성역전현상이 발생되며 이것은 가스 하이드레이트 지층의 존재와 분포를 판단하는 중요한 인자가 된다. 탄성파 주파수 특성 분석은 Wavelet Transform을 이용하여 시간에 따른 탄성파동의 주파수 변화를 관찰하는 방법을 사용하였다. 탄성파 모형 실험 자료에 대하여 적용한 결과 Free-Gas층에 대비되는 공기층을 통과하여 반사된 탄성파의 주파수는 고주파수 성분이 상당히 감쇠되었음을 관찰할 수 있었다.

The inductive reactance losses of a superconducting current generator built at Case Western Reserve University has been analyzed. The calculations of the field in the spot make it possible to estimate the spot inductance as well as the filament inductance on the foil. It is shown that magnetic energy lost in switching the current is mainly due to the amplitude of the fluctuation in voltage associated with the inductive reactance losses of a superconducting current generator.

In this paper, a PN code tracking loop with extended Kalman filter (EKF) is proposed for a direct-sequence spread-spectrum. EKF is used to estimate amplitude and delay in a multipath. fading channel. It is shown that tracking error performance is significantly improved by EKF compared with a conventional tracking loop.
