This paper presents a new strengthening method of underground box structures against seismic loads for anti-seismic capacity improvement. A threaded steel member with pressure devices(so called 'I-bracing pressure system') is used to improve seismic capacity of the RC box structure. The I-bracing pressure system is fixed the corner of opening after chemical anchor was installed by drilling hole on the box structure. The structural performance was evaluated analytically. Two bracing types of strengthening methods were used; conventional bracing method and improved I-bracing pressure system. For the performance evaluation, seismic analyses were performed on moment and shear resisting structures with and without I-bracing pressure system. Numerical results confirmed that the proposed I-bracing pressure system can enhance the seismic capacity of the underground RC box structures.

This paper describes the improvement of the arithmetic for emergency generator capacity. This formula which calculates emergency generator is dependent on the Korean Design Standard of building electrical equipment issued by the Ministry of Land, Infrastructure and Transport, and the technical data related to the generator. when appling the formula, the capacity of the generator is insufficient at the starting conditions of the load facility. In case of emergency, the generator is not operated normally. $PG_2$ of the formula ($PG_1$, $PG_2$, $PG_3$) applied in determining the capacity of the emergency generator is selected by calculating the capacity of the generator based on only biggest one motor among the load equipment and $PG_3$ may not be able to start the generator normally in case of emergency because there is an error such that the power factor is applied at the last start of the motor having the maximum capacity of the load. We analyze the problem of capacity calculation of emergency generators used for general purposes. As a consequence, the improved formulas have been presented for safety of electrical installation.

In cellular mobile communications, how to achieve optimum system capacity with limited frequency spectrum is one of the main research issues. Many dynamic channel assignment (DCA) schemes have been proposed and studied to allocate the channels more efficiently, thus, the capacity of cellular systems is improved. Reuse partitioning (RP) is another technique to achieve higher capacity by reducing the overall reuse distance. In this paper, we present a network-based DCA scheme with the implementation of RP technique, namely dynamic reuse partitioning with interference information (DRP-WI). The scheme aims to minimize the effect of assigned channels on the availability of channels for use in the interfering cells and to reduce their overall reuse distances. The performance of DRP-WI is measured in terms of blocking probability and system capacity. Simulation results have confirmed the effectiveness of DRP-WI scheme. Under both uniform and non-uniform traffic distributions, DRP-WI exhibits outstanding performance in improving the system capacity. It can provide about 100% capacity improvement as compared to conventional fixed channel assignment scheme with 70 system channels.

The present study deals with the Pressure-settlement behavior of square and rectangular skirted footing resting on sand and subjected to a vertical load through a laboratory experimental study. A series of load tests were conducted in the model test tank to evaluate the improvement in pressure-settlement behavior and bearing capacity of square and rectangular model footings with and without structural skirt. The footing of width 5 cm and 6 cm and length/width ratio of 1 and 2 was used. The relative density of sand was maintained at 30%, 50%, 70%, and 87% respectively. The depth of skirt was varied from 0.25 B to 1.0 B. All the tests were carried out using a strain controlled loading frame of 50 kN capacity. The strain rate for all test was kept 0.24 mm/min. The results of present study reveal that, the use of structural skirt improves the bearing capacity of footing significantly. The improvement in bearing capacity was observed almost linearly proportional to the depth of skirt. The improvement in bearing capacity of skirted footings over footing without skirt was observed in the range of 33.3% to 68.5%, 68.9% to 127% and 146.7% to 262% for a skirt depth of 0.25 B, 0.50 B and 1.0 B respectively. The skirted footings were found more effective for sand at relative density of 30% and 50% than at relative density of 70% and 87%. The bearing capacity was found to increase linearly with footing width for footings with and without skirts. This observation was found to be consistent for footings with different skirt depths and for relative density of sand i.e., 30%, 50%, 70%, and 87%. The obtained results from the study for footing with and without skirts were comparable with available solutions from literature.

연약지반 개량공법의 하나인 쇄석기둥은 일반 연직배수공법에 주로 사용되는 모래재료 대신에 쇄석재료를 사용하며 배수 및 침하량 감소, 지지력 증대의 복합 효과에 의해 지반을 개량한다. 최근 들어 대규모 토목공사에 사용되는 건설재료로서 막대한 양이 소요되는 모래는 현재 수요는 급증하고 구득은 갈수록 어려워져 재료는 고갈상태에 이르고 있는 실정으로서 쇄석기둥공법의 적용이 더욱 늘어나고 있는 추세이다. 특히, 최근 들어 쇄석기둥의 지지력 보강효과를 이용하는 경향이 증가함에 따라 지지력 보강 예측이 중요한 관심사항으로 대두되었으나 아직까지 주변지반과 쇄석기둥 구조체의 상호 거동을 합리적으로 반영한 산정식이 제시되어있지 못한 상태이다. 따라서 본 연구에서는 연약지반상에 조성된 쇄석기둥에 의한 개량효과중 지지력 증대효과를 규명하기 위해 쇄석기둥의 지지력 거동을 수치해석적으로 시뮬레이션하였다. 이렇게 함으로써 쇄석기둥이 설치되는 원지반의 물성과 쇄석기둥의 물성을 반영하면서 하중-침하거동을 파악하고자 하였다. 수치해석 시뮬레이션에 의한 지지력 거동을 원지반조건, 쇄석기둥 조건별로 분석하여 쇄석기둥의 지지력 거동식을 제안하고 제안된 지지력 예측방법과 거동을 계측한 실측치와의 검증을 실시하였다.

For an asymmetric scroll compressor for heat pump application, a numerical simulation was carried out to investigate the effects of injection port design on the compressor's performance under gas injection. To validate the simulation, the numerical results were compared with experimental results obtained from a scroll compressor with a base injection port design. There was good agreement between simulation and experimental results, with around a 1% difference in the injection mass flow rate when the injection pressure was below $12kgf/cm^2A$ for the heating mode. Various injection port angular positions were numerically tested to yield better injection performance. The largest improvement in heating capacity was obtained at angles of $240^{\circ}$ and $200^{\circ}$ inward from the scroll wrap end angle for low-temperature and standard heating conditions, respectively, while the maximum COP improvement was at $365^{\circ}$ and $280^{\circ}$, respectively. A considerable improvement in cooling capacity was also found at the injection port angle of $240^{\circ}$.

The external post-tension technique is one of the best strengthening methods for reinforcement and improvement of the various steel structures and substructure components such as beams. In the present work, the load carrying capacity of the post-tensioned tapered steel beams with external shape memory alloy (SMA) tendons are studied. 3D nonlinear finite element method with ABAQUS software is used to determine the effects of the increase in the flexural strength, and the improvement of the load carrying capacity. The effect of the different parameters, such as geometrical characteristics and the post-tension force applied to the tendons are also studied in this research. The results reveal that the external post-tension with SMA tendons in comparison with the steel tendons causes a significant improvement of the loading capacity. According to this, using SMA tendon for the reinforcement of the tapered beams causes a decrease in weight of these structures and as a consequence causes economic benefits for their application. This method can be used extensively for steel beams due to low executive costs and simplicity of the operation for post-tension.
