The article describes the determination of the dynamic stability for an observation antenna, considering the rotational speed by the payload driving motor. A finite element model of the observation antenna was made using the solid and beam elements. The connecting parts between the solid and the beam was adequately coupled. The boundary conditions were made by restriction of the degree of freedoms in the supporting points. With the comparison between the modal analysis results and the rotating speed of the payload driving motor, no resonance for the structure of antenna was identified and first natural frequency was determined under 33 Hz (Seismic Cut-Off Frequency). Therefore, the dynamic stability of the antenna was confirmed by the comparism between the seismic safety criterion and the stress results of the dynamic analysis applied the loading conditions and required response spectrum (RRS).

In the previous researches on mesh curve fairing method, a set of discrete data points in a mesh can be selected as variables. End tangent vectors can not be variables. This restriction makes some problems in preparing the end tangent vectors at the bow or stern parts, because their slopes are not infinites or zeros. In this paper end tangent vectors are included as variables and the more smooth results are obtained. Also two methods of constructing ship hull surface from mesh curves are examined. It is shown that the skinning method is better than non-uniform B-spline fitting method in representing the area near boundary. The generation of a ship surface is given as an example.

MFN provisions in investment agreements have been a tool for equitable treatment between foreign investors with different nationalities. This non discriminatory principle has been pursued by the host states for further investment promotion. However, it may be abused to bring the situation of so called "ISDS forum shopping" which might harm the stability and predictability of investment agreements by unexpectedly extending the scope of obligations. While some investment arbitral tribunals have interpreted the scope of MFN provision very broadly to allow the ISDS forum shopping, both procedural and substantive provisions have been invoked. To prevent any chaos of unclear boundary of MFN provision, some explicit MFN restrictions which would limit the scope of MFN provision are needed. Indeed, some investment agreements have included these MFN restrictions. Specifically, MFN restrictions deal with both procedural or substantive provisions to prevent ISDS forum shopping. According to the lessons from the recent examples of MFN restrictions, there must be a careful consideration on the benefits and costs of having a certain type of MFN restriction as the parties can be the host state and the home state of their investors at the same time.

In this paper, we consider the asymptotic behavior of solutions for the partly dissipative reaction diffusion systems of the FitzHugh-Nagumo type with hereditary memory and a very large class of nonlinearities, which have no restriction on the upper growth of the nonlinearity. We first prove the existence and uniqueness of weak solutions to the initial boundary value problem for the above-mentioned model. Next, we investigate the existence of a uniform attractor of this problem, where the time-dependent forcing term h ∈ L²_b(ℝ; H^-1(ℝ^N)) is the only translation bounded instead of translation compact. Finally, we prove the regularity of the uniform attractor A, i.e., A is a bounded subset of H²(ℝ^N) × H¹(ℝ^N) × L²_µ(ℝ⁺, H²(ℝ^N)). The results in this paper will extend and improve some previously obtained results, which have not been studied before in the case of non-autonomous, exponential growth nonlinearity and contain memory kernels.

We present a design sensitivity analysis(DSA) method for multiscale problems based on bridging scale decomposition. In this paper, we utilize a bridging scale method for the coupled system analysis. Since the analysis of full MD systems requires huge amount of computational costs, a coupled system of MD-level and continuum-level simulation is usually preferred. The information exchange between the MD and continuum levels is taken place at the MD-continuum boundary. In the bridging scale method, a generalized Langevin equation(GLE) is introduced for the reduced MD system and the GLE force using a time history kernel is applied at the boundary atoms in the MD system. Therefore, we can separately analyze the MD and continuum level simulations, which can accelerate the computing process. Once the simulation of coupled problems is successful, the need for the DSA is naturally arising for the optimization of macro-scale design, where the macro scale performance of the system is maximized considering the micro scale effects. The finite difference sensitivity is impractical for the gradient based optimization of large scale problems due to the restriction of computing costs but the analytical sensitivity for the coupled system is always accurate. In this study, we derive the analytical design sensitivity to verify the accuracy and applicability to the design optimization of the coupled system.

This study investigates to detect Sea Surface Temperature (SST) and land cover change after tide embankment construction using Landsat Thematic Mapper (TM) Thermal Infrared (TIR) band data at Shihwa Lake and surrounding area. SST measurement is important for studies of both the structure of the ocean and as the thermal boundary between the ocean and the atmosphere. Since 1970s, the derivation of SST by satellite remote sensing (RS) has been applied to earth surface using Advanced Very High Resolution Radiometer (AVHRR) and Landsat TM. However, AVHRR has restriction in deriving SST in the area whose shoreline is complicated like western coast in South Korea because of coarse spatial resolution. The TIR band of TM images can be used to detect SST change whose shoreline is complicated and narrow like the study site. Thus, multi-temporal TM images were used for SST change detection in this study.

The purpose of this study is to dimensionally examine the factors of policy changes by applying the ACMS model to KEPCO's structural reorganization privatization policies and study its implications. As a result of the analysis, among the external variables that affect as a financial source or restriction to advocates, all areas except for the difference in opinion of the people as well as policy decision and effects of other subordinate systems were shown to be in an advantageous condition acting as a financial source to advocates of structural reorganization privatization. On the other hand, advocates affected by the external variables share a certain belief system in which the advocates of privatization share the justification of profitability while the advocates of collectivization share the justification of publicness. In these flows, the announcement of the privatization plan of public enterprises of the committee of planning and budgeting acts as a matter of contact which opens the windows for policy changes, and this window goes through ignition, explosion, and fixation which causes fierce interactions among advocates of both sides. Eventually, in accordance with the contents of excluding electricity(KEPCO) from the list for privatization the window for policy changes has closed and things have changed to a transitional KEPCO privatization policy. Based on this, the first implication is that non-official participants such as the people, social organizations, labor unions, etc. influence policy changes more than they did before. Secondly, in the process of policy changes, there is an order of boundary even in the fierce interactions between each advocate. Thirdly, specific variables can play various roles in complex policy phenomenon. Fourthly, a logical analysis using the ACMS model is possible in Korea as well. Fifthly, as a result of analyzing the change process of the KEPCO structural reorganization privatization policy through the ACMS model, not all matched with the main research results implied by the ACMS model.

Non-pneumatic wheels have been widely used instead of general tube type wheels beause of many reasons, for example, wheel size, price restriction, heavy-duty problem and so on. Almost small size wheels or casters were non-pneumatic type but structural stability was not certified. This paper presents a double structured non-pneumatic wheel, called "smart caster", which consisted with inner and outer wheels connected by chips, and finite element analysis processes were conducted in order to determine important dwsign factors before actual design for mass production. For structural analysis ABAQUS was used under various boundary conditions with incrementally varied loads until 2,000N. Then structural staility was evaluated according to varied loads below ultimate stress. Generally stresses were concentrated at the lower parts of the wheel, and especially contact parts between wheel and ground. In addition, maximum stress appeared at contact parts between the wheel lower part and chips.

This study aims at examining the making and distribution course of performing arts and its converged form with technology and industry in terms of the Contents Promotion Act. Since the 2000s, the inter-area contents making and sharing methods have been changing the making and distribution structure of performing arts. The recent production of performing arts contents live videos extends the areas of arts creation and communication beyond the time and spatial boundaries of performing arts and changes the existing systems. The performing arts which started with nowness and spatio-temporal restriction on the premise is now creating a new platform over the spatio-temporal boundary through the live video. Performing arts, in convergence with the areas of technology and industries, expands universal approaches and shows the public value of cultural fairness at public performing arts centers. In this context, this study aims at seeking the possible extension of performing arts contents by examining how the so-called high-class performing arts such as opera, theatre and classical music combines with the visual industry.

A numerical model for solving advection-diffusion equation is presented by splitoperator method combining the Holly-Preissmann scheme with a fifth-degree interpolating polynomial for advection operator and the explicit scheme porposed by Hobson et al. for diffusion operator. To examine the developed model, the obtained numerical solutions are compared with both the analytic solution and those from the existing models for the instantaneous source (Gaussian hill) and the continuous source (advanced front) at upstream boundary with constant velocity and diffusivity condition. For the various cases having different Courant and Peclet numbers, it is shown that the present study provides stable solutions even for Courant numbers exceeding one. The result obtained by the present study also agree well with existing analytical solutions for both cases. The proposed explicit scheme somewhat releases the conventional restriction of explicit schemes for determining the time step size and provides satisfactory results for relatively large time step size.
