With the gradual implementation of long-span suspension bridges into high-speed railway operations, the main beam's bending stiffness contribution to the live load response permanently grows. Since another critical control parameter of railway suspension bridges is the beam-end rotation angle, it should not be ignored by treating the main beam deflection as the only deformation response. To this end, the current study refines the existing method of the main cable shape and simply supported beam bending moment analogy. The bending stiffness of the main beam is considered, and the main beam's analytical expressions of deflection and rotation angle in the whole span are obtained using the cable-beam deformation coordination relationship. Taking a railway suspension bridge as an example, the effectiveness and accuracy of the proposed analytical method are verified by the finite element method (FEM). Comparison of the results by FEM and the analytical method ignoring the main beam stiffness revealed that the bending stiffness of the main beam strongly contributed to the live load response. Under the same live load, as the main beam stiffness increases, the overall deformation of the structure decreases, and the reduction is particularly noticeable at locations with original larger deformations. When the main beam stiffness is increased to a certain extent, the stiffening effect is no longer pronounced.

Alignment effects for nematic liquid crystal (NLC) and electro-optical (EO) characteristics of the ion beam (IB) aligned twisted nematic (TN)-liquid crystal display (LCD) with oblique ion beam exposure on the diamond-like carbon (DLC) thin film surface were studied. A high pretilt angle of 3.5$^{\circ}$ in NLC by ion beam exposure on the DLC thin film layer can be measured. An excellent voltage-transmittance (V-T) curve of the ion beam aligned TN-LCD was observed with oblique ion beam exposure on the DLC thin film surface for 1 min. Also, a faster response time for the ion beam aligned TN-LCD with oblique ion beam exposure on the DLC thin film surface for 1 min can be achieved.

A modular Gaussian beam model is developed to simulate some ultrasonic testing configurations where multiple interfaces are involved. A general formulation is given in a modular matrix form to represent the Gaussian beam propagation with multiple interfaces. The ultrasonic transducer fields are modeled by a multi-Gaussian beam model which is formed by superposing 10 single Gaussian beams. The proposed model, referred to as "MMGB" (modular multi-Gaussian beam) model, is then applied to a typical contact and angle beam testing configuration to predict the output signal reflected from the corner of a vertical crack. The resulting expressions given in a modular matrix form are implemented in a personal computer using the MATLAB program. Simulation results are presented and compared with available experimental results.

본 논문에서는 컨포멀 어레이(Conformal Array) 빔 합성 기법에 관한 연구를 수행하였다. 일반적인 선형 배열에서의 빔 조향에 따른 성능 열화 없이 빔 조향을 수행할 수 있는 컨포멀 어레이는 다양한 레이다 시스템에 적용되고 있다. 평면형 선형 배열에서의 빔 합성 기법과 달리 컨포멀 배열은 곡면상에 복사소자가 위치하므로 복사소자별로 파면(Wave Front)까지의 위상을 보상해 주어야 한다. 또한 복사소자별 옵셋 각도(Offset Angle)를 계산하여 실제 q빔 합성 시 적용함으로서 정확한 빔 패턴을 예측할 수 있었다. 본 논문에서는 위상 보상 및 옵셋 각도를 계산하여 빔 패턴 합성 시 적용한 후 빔 패턴 비교를 수행하였으며, 수학적인 분석을 통해 성능을 비교하였다.

The Liquid Crystal (LC) alignment uniformity is very important in LC devices. The alignment mechanism of LC molecules on a rubbed polyimide (PI) surface is very important for both LC fundamental research and application. So, Generally a rubbing method to align LC has been widely used to mass-produce LCD panels. But because rubbing method is contact method between rubbing fabric and indium-tin-oxide glass or flexible substrate, rubbing method has some defects, such as the electrode charges and the creation of contaminating particles. Thus we strongly recommend a non-contact alignment technique for getting rid of some defects of rubbing method. Most recently, the LC aligning capabilities achieved by ion-beam exposure on the organic and nonorganic thin film surface have been reported successfully. In this research, we studied the tilt angle generation and electro-optical performances for a NLC on homeotropic polyimide surfaces with ion-beam exposure. The LC aligning capabilities of a nematic liquid crystal (NLC) on a homeotropic PI surface using a new ion-beam method were studied. On the homeotropic PI surface, the tilt angle of the NLC by exposure ion-beam had a tendency to decrease as increased ion-beam energy density. And, on the homeotropic PI surface, the alignment character of the NLC with respect to ion-beam energy was good. And we achieved satisfactory result for EO character.

The liquid crystal (LC) aligning capabilities treated on the Organic overcoat thin film surfaces by ion beam irradiation and rubbing method was successfully studied for the first time. The Organic overcoat layer was coated by spin-coating. In order to characterize the LC alignment, the microscope, pretilt angle, thermal stress, and atomic force microscopy (AFM) image was used. The good LC aligning capabilities treated on the Organic overcoat thin film surfaces with ion beam exposure of $45^{\circ}$ above ion beam energy density of 1200 eV can be achieved. But, the alignment of defect of NLC on the Organicovercoat surface at low energy density of 600 eV was measured. The pretilt angle of NLC on the Organic overcoat thin film surface with ion beam exposure of $45^{\circ}$ for 1 min at energy density of 1800eV was measured about 1.13 degree. But, low pretilt angles of NLC on the Organic overcoat thin film surface with ion beam exposure at energy density of 600, 1200, 2400, and 3000 eV was measured. Also, the pretilt angle of NLC on the rubbed Organic overcoat thin film surfaces was measured about 0.04 degrees. Finally, the good thermal stability of LC alignment on the Organic overcoat thin film surface with ion beam exposure of $45^{\circ}$ for 1 min can be measured.

위상배열안테나는 빔 조향 각도에 따라 방사 특성이 변화한다. 모노펄스 추적 시스템은 합 및 차신호의 방사특성을 기반으로 추정 각을 산출하는 시스템이다. 따라서 위상배열안테나를 이용한 모노펄스 추적 시스템의 경우, 빔 조향 각도에 따라 모노펄스 비율 곡선이 변화하기 때문에 추적정확도가 낮아지는 문제가 발생한다. 단일 채널 모노펄스 시스템의 경우, 시스템 구성 변수의 변화를 통해 모노펄스 비율 곡선이 제어된다. 본 논문에서는 빔 조향 각도에 모노펄스 시스템 구성 변수를 적응형으로 제어하는데 참조할 수 있는 간소화된 수식을 제시하였다. 제시된 수식은 빔 조향 각도뿐만 아니라 방사 특성에 영향을 주는 위상배열안테나 설계 변수에 대응하여 균일한 모노펄스 비율 곡선을 유도할 수 있다.

Starting from the rotating beam finite element in which the interpolating shape functions satisfies the governing static homogeneous differential equation of Euler-Bernoulli rotating beams, we derived new shape functions that satisfies the governing differential equation which contains the terms of hub radius and setting angle. The shape functions are rational functions which depend on hub radius, setting angle, rotational speed and element position. Numerical results for uniform and tapered cantilever beams with and without hub radius and setting angle are compared with the available results. It is shown that the present element offers an accurate method for solving the free vibration problems of rotating beam.

One ingredient in an empirical birthrate estimate for pulsar binaries is the fraction of sky subtended by the pulsar beam: the pulsar beaming fraction. This fraction depends on both the pulsar's beam geometry defined by the pulsar's opening angle and the misalignment angle between its spin and magnetic axes. The current estimates for pulsar binary birthrates are based on an average value of beaming fractions for only two pulsars, i.e., PSRs B1913+16 and B1534+12. In this work, we revisit the observed pulsar binaries to examine the sensitivity of birthrate predictions to different assumptions regarding the pulsar beam geometry. The results show that, for those pulsars without any direct beam geometry constraints, the estimated beaming correction factor is likely to be smaller than six, a canonically adopted value when calculating birthrates of Galactic pulsar binaries. The median birthrate estimates for pulsar-white dwarf and pulsar-neutron star binaries in the Galactic disk, based on the best observational constraints, are 34 per Myr and 89 per Myr, respectively.

종래의 앵글 조립재와 철주빔의 연결방법을 검토하고 강관주와 강관빔의 연결시 종래의 앵글보다 우수한 점들을 열거하며 연결부분의 모멘트 등을 검토하여 경제적인면 등의 우수성을 보여줘 장래에는 조립빔보다 강관빔으로 교체하는 것이 철도의 경제적인 면이나 유지보수적인 측면에서 유리함을 보여준다. 종래의 수계산에 의존하거나 외주에 의거하여 계산되어졌으나 마이다스아이티사의 CIVIL프로그램을 응용하여 계산한다면 충분히 자체적으로도 강도계산이 이루어질 수 있다. 전단력과 허용인장응력, 허용휨압축응력, 허용전단응력등을 검토하고 이에따라 합성응력을 검토하여 강관주의 안전성을 보여준다. 또한 연결부의 사용볼트 및 볼트 허용인장강도, 전단강도, 축력, 전단력, 모멘트등도 검토하고 나아가 전철주 기초의 base plate 연결부위도 검토한다.
