This paper presents a new benchmark for object-relational database systems, which are regarded as the next-generation database system. This benchmark has been developed to evaluate system performance peculiar to object-relational database systems. The design philosophy, test databases, an test queries of the benchmark are presented. This benchmark features scaleability, use of a synthesized database only, and a query-oriented evaluation. We have implemented his benchmark with two commerical object-relational database systems and the experimental results are also reported.

The paper presents the EBORD (Extended Benchmark for Object-Relational Databases) benchmark, which is an extension of the BORD benchmark for object-relational databases. The EBORD benchmark is developed to evaluate the database common functions that should be supported in modern database systems. Besides the 36 test queries already defined in the BORD benchmark, totally 22 test queries in five categories are newly defined in order to measure the index-relevant performance issues and database import capabilities. The EBORD benchmark also features scalability, use of a synthesized database, and a query-oriented evaluation. In order to show the feasibility of the proposed benchmark, we implement it with two commercial database systems. The experimental results and analyses are also reported.

Public institutions are considering adoption of open-source software in the process of information projects. However, there doesn't exist reliable information about an adoption process for open-source software. Performance and stability problems of this software also persist, as a result, current open-source software is not widely used. As a software market and industry grows, Benchmark test has been performed more often than before in order to help customers understand and select the most appropriate product among myriad similar ones. It is certain that more objective and trustful data evidence should be obtained by way of utilizing the procedures and methods of Benchmark Test in decision making process for selecting an open-source software. For this research, Benchmark test was applied as a way of demonstrating performance verification of an open-source software in the public institutions. It is certain that more objective and trustful data evidence should be obtained by way of utilizing the procedures and methods of Benchmark Test in decision making process for selecting an open-source software. It also introduces a case study of a information system, which selected and implemented open-source software, in order to confirm the validity of this research. This research will serve as a guideline to adopt open-source software in governments as well as public institutions.

In this paper, we compare and assess the performance of the standard 3- and 6-node MITC shell elements (Lee and Bathe 2004) with the recently developed MITC triangular elements (Lee et al. 2014, Jeon et al. 2014, Jun et al. 2018) which were based on the partitions of unity approximation, bubble node, or both. The convergence behavior of the shell elements are measured in well-known benchmark tests; four plane stress tests (mesh distortion test, cantilever beam, Cook's skew beam, and MacNeal beam), two plate tests (Morley's skew plate and circular plate), and six shell tests (curved beam, twisted beam, pinched cylinder, hemispherical shells with or without hole, and Scordelis-Lo roof). To precisely compare and evaluate the solution accuracy of the shell elements, different triangular mesh patterns and distorted element mesh are adopted in the benchmark problems. All shell finite elements considered pass the basic tests; namely, the isotropy, the patch, and the zero energy mode tests.

Virtual images for PIV are produced for the construction of a benchmark test tool of PTV systems, Camera parameters obtained by an actual experiment are used to construct the virtual images, LES(Large Eddy Simulation) data sets of a channel flow are used for generation of the virtual images, Using the virtual images and the camera's parameters. three-dimensional velocity vectors are obtained for a channel flow. The capabilities of a 3D-PTV algorithm are investigated by comparing the results obtained by the virtual images and those by an actual measurement for the channel flow.

An integral test facility, PILLAR, was commissioned, aiming to provide valuable experimental results which can be referenced by system and component designers and used for the performance demonstration of liquid-metal-cooled, passive small modular reactors (SMRs) toward their licensing. The setup was conceptualized by a scaling analysis which allows the vertical arrangements to be conserved from its prototypic reactor, scaled uniformly in the radial direction achieving a flow area reduction of 1/200. Its final design includes several heater rods which simulate the reactor core, and a single heat exchanger representing the steam generators in the prototype. The system behaviors were characterized by its data acquisition system implementing various instruments. In this paper, we present not only a detailed description of the facility components, but also selected experimental results of both steady-state and transient cases. The obtained steady-state test results were utilized for the benchmark of a system code, achieving a capability of accurate simulations with ±3% of maximum deviations. It was followed by qualitative comparisons on the transient test results which indicate that the integral system behaviors in passive LBE-cooled systems are able to be predicted by the code.

An isolated building, composed of superstructure and isolation system which have very different damping properties, is typically non-classical damping system. This results in inapplicability of traditional response spectrum method for isolated buildings. A multidimensional response spectrum method based on complex mode superposition is herein introduced, which properly takes into account the non-classical damping feature in the structure and a new method is developed to estimate velocity spectra from the commonly used displacement or pseudo-acceleration spectra based on random vibration theory. The error of forced decoupling method, an approximated approach, is discussed in the viewpoint of energy transfer. From the base-isolated benchmark model, as a numerical example, application of the procedure is illustrated companying with comparison study of time-history method, forced decoupling method and the proposed method. The results show that the proposed method is valid, while forced decoupling approach can't reflect the characteristics of isolated buildings and may lead to insecurity of structures.

지질학적 현상을 연구하는 물리적 실험의 경우, 반복성 있는 현상 재현이 가능할 때 실험의 신뢰성을 증대시킬 수 있다. 본 연구에서는 인장력에 의해 발생한 정단층 구조를 대상으로 모형 토조를 이용한 벤치마크 실험을 수행하였다. 이를 위해 모형 실험의 상사성을 검토하고, 벤치마크 실험에서와 같은 방법으로 실험 재료와 인장조건, 그리고 경계조건을 설정하여 실험을 수행하였다. 또한 대형 원심모형실험시설을 이용하여 동일한 크기의 모형에서 원심중력가속도와 인장 속도를 변화시켜 인장 거동 시의 물리량에 대한 상사비를 고려하였다. 1 g 상태에서의 벤치마크 실험과 10 g 상태에서의 원심중력장에서 일정한 속도의 인장 응력을 구현하고, 지표면의 형상을 신뢰성 있게 계측하였다. 이를 통해 지각의 변형 실험 연구를 수행 시, 대형 원심모형실험의 신뢰성과 적용성을 평가하였다.

This paper was written in the context of a benchmark study promoted by The Hong Kong Polytechnic University using data samples collected in an instrumented cable-stayed bridge. The main goal of the benchmark test was to study the identification of the bridge modes of vibration under different wind conditions. In this contribution, the tools developed at ViBest/FEUP for automated data processing of setups collected by dynamic monitoring systems are presented and applied to the data made available in the context of the benchmark study. The applied tools are based on parametric output only modal identification methods combined with clustering algorithms. The obtained results demonstrate that the proposed algorithms succeeded to automatically identify the modes with relevant contribution for the bridge response under different wind conditions.

The H.B. Robinson Unit 2 (HBR-2) pressure vessel dosimetry benchmark is an in- and ex-Reactor Pressure Vessel (RPV) neutron dosimetry benchmark based on experimental data from the HBR-2 reactor, a 2300-MW PWR designed by Westinghouse and put in operation in March 1971, openly available through the SINBAD Database at OECD/NEA data Bank. The goals of the present work were to carry out three-dimensional (3D) fixed source transport calculations in both Cartesian (X,Y,Z) and cylindrical (R,θ,Z) geometries by using the TORT-3.2 discrete ordinates code on very detailed 3D HBR-2 geometrical models and to test the latest broad-group coupled (47 neutron groups + 20 photon groups) working cross section libraries in FIDO-ANISN format with same structure as BUGLE-96, such as BUGJEFF311.BOLIB, BUGENDF70.BOLIB and BUGLE-B7. The results obtained with all the cited libraries were satisfactory and are here reported and compared.
