Existing numerical models for strain-hardening cement-based composites (SHCC) are short of providing sufficiently accurate solutions to the failure patterns of coupling beams of different designs. The objective of this study is to develop an effective model that is capable of simulating the nonlinear behavior of SHCC coupling beams subjected to cyclic loading. The beam model proposed in this study is a macro-scale plane stress model. The effects of cracks on the macro-scale behavior of SHCC coupling beams are smeared in an anisotropic model. In particular, the influence of the defined crack orientations on the simulation accuracy is explored. Extensive experimental data from coupling beams with different failure patterns are employed to evaluate the validity of the proposed SHCC coupling beam models. The results show that the use of the suggested shear stiffness retention factor for damaged SHCC coupling beams is able to effectively enhance the simulation accuracy, especially for shear-critical SHCC coupling beams. In addition, the definition of crack orientation for damaged coupling beams is found to be a critical factor influencing the simulation accuracy.

The P&S(Power Plant Simulation System) is a powerful simulation software system for the dynamic behavior of power plants. The P&S module libraries provide plant models with higher flexibility of dynamic simulations for process and control designs. The P&S software was effectively available for PCS based on Linux and modem workstations based on Unix. The P&S was applied for simulating the dynamic behaviors of the SOVR(Supercritical Once-Through Variable Pressure Reheater) according to the operations such as stan-up, shutdown, load following, load change and trip in order to obtain an optimal operation procedure for Unit 5/6 of Taeahn fossil power plant consisted of SOVRs and steam turbines.

The dynamic behavior of hydrostatic table is represented as the theoretical model, 1-dof, 2-dof rigid body spring-damper system, and finite element model. By the experimental and theoretical methods, the validity of these models and some other dynamic behaviors, such as the effects of unbalanced load and three dimensional motion, are investigated. To make easier to consider the dynamic behavior of hydrostatic table in design process, the stiffness and damping coefficients are calculated using the simple approximation method delived from the mass flow continuity condition, and compared with experimental results.

최근 사용자 행태 분석 개념이 매우 중요한 이슈가 되고 있으며, HCI(Human-Computer Interface)의 관점에서 사용자의 행태와 시스템 모델링은 적절한 모델링 언어나 도구가 부족하여 사용자의 행태를 전부 표현하지 못한다. 소프트웨어공학에서는 시스템을 설계하기 위해 UML(Unified Modeling Language)을 사용하여 시스템을 모델링하고 있다. 물론 UML에 액터 개념은 있으나 시스템 중심의 모델에 초점을 두고 있어, 사용자의 행태 표현에 제약이 존재한다. 이에 본 논문에서는 사용자 행태를 모델링하기위해 OBA(Object Behavior Analysis)방법론을 기반으로 사용자 행태에 초점을 맞춰 시스템을 모델링 하고, 결과로써 HCI관점을 위해 부족한 UML의 문제와 확장성을 언급하고자 한다.

Using computational modeling, we design a pair of biomimetic microcapsules that exploit chemical mechanisms to communicate and alter their local environment. As a result, these synthetic objects can undergo autonomous, directed motion. In the simulations, signaling microcapsules release "agonist" particles, while target microcapsules release "antagonist" particles and the permeabilities of both capsule types depend on the local particle concentration in the surrounding solution. Additionally, the released nanoscopic particles can bind to the underlying substrate and thereby create adhesion gradients that propel the microcapsules to move. Hydrodynamic interactions and the feedback mechanism provided by the dissolved particles are both necessary to achieve the cooperative behavior exhibited by these microcapsules. Our model provides a platform for integrating both the spatial and temporal behavior of assemblies of "artificial cells", and allows us to design a rich variety of structures capable of exhibiting complex dynamics. Due to the cell-like attributes of polymeric microcapsules and polymersomes, material systems are available for realizing our predictions.

To improve survivability of damaged ship, assessment of stability and structural safety, and behavior analysis in wave is required. Prediction of sinking time, damage stability and structural strength considering progressive flooding and dynamic force in wave is very important. To do it, a geometric model which can be express damaged ship is prepared. This paper described the geometric modeler for survivability assessment of damaged ship. The modeler is developed based on 3-D geometric modeling kernel, ACIS. The hull form and compartment definition is available fundamentally. And requirement for modeler contains data generation and interface for hydrostatic calculation, behavior analysis, and longitudinal strength analysis and so on. To easy access modeling system by conventional user such as crew, user interface is developing.

실시간 내장형 시스템(real-time embedded system)의 반응 동작(reactive behavior)을 정확하게 분석하기 위해서 상태차트(statechart)에 바탕을 둔 객체 지향 모델링 방법론들이 많이 사용되고 있다. 하지만 이들 방법론들은 경성 실시간 시스템(hard real-time system)이라면 반드시 고려해야할 스케줄링 가능성분석(scheduability analysis)에 필요한 시간에 대한 정보와 시간 제약을 정확히 나타내지 못하는 문제점이 있다. 본 논문에서는 최근 OMG(Object Management Group)에서 객체 지향개발의 기준으로 채택된 UML(Unifies Modeling Language) ver1.1을 사용하여 실시간 내장형 시스템의 반응 동작과 시스템의 시제 동작(temporal behavior)을 모델링하여, 모델링된 시스템이 스케줄링 가능성 분석이 효과적으로 이루어지는 방안을 제안한다.

This paper describes modeling and simulation of automotive forward collision warning and avoidance system using CASE(Computer-Aided Systems Engineering) tool. The system is composed or many sensors, a controller, warning devices, brakes and etc. The system was modeled by one activity chart, fourteen state charts and one module chart. Rear-end collision scenarios was generated by Simulink and used to support Stalemate model. The resulting model was used to evaluate the correctness of function and behavior of the system. A simulator for the system has been designed and used to validate the model under realistic operating conditions in the laboratory. To model and simulate the system's functionality and behavior brings clarity to system design early in the system development.

In this study, a new smart beam finite element is proposed for the finite element modeling of the beam-type smart structure with bonded plate-type piezoelectric sensors and actuators. Constitutive equations far the direct piezoelectric effect and converse piezoelectric effect of piezoelectric materials are considered. By using the variational principle, the equations of motion for the smart beam finite element are derived. The presented 2-node beam finite element is isoparametric element based on Timoshenko beam theory. The validity of the proposed beam element is shown through comparing the analysis results of the verification examples with those of other previous researches. Therefore, by analyzing smart structures with smart beam finite elements, it is possible to simulate the control of the structural behavior by piezoelectric actuators with applied voltages and the monitoring of the structure behavior by piezoelectric sensors with sensed voltages.

This paper presents several modeling methods to analyze the stub-girder system, testifies those methods base on actual test results for the behavior of the simply supported stub-girder system, and finally, by changing the boundary conditions in those models, predicts the behavior of the fixed end stub-girder system. Two different methods are used for the structural modeling. In the first method, the stub-girder is modeled as a vierendeel truss girder, and in the second method, as a finite element model. Both methods use the finite element analysis software package LUSAS™ for linearly elastic analyses and nonlinear analyses.
