Fuzzy logic has been successfully used for nonlinear control systems. However, when the plant is complex or expert knowledge is not available, it is difficult to construct the rule bases of fuzzy systems. In this paper, we propose a new method of how to construct automatically the rule bases using fuzzy neural network. Whereas the conventional methods need the training data representing input-output relationship, the proposed algorithm utilizes the gradient of the object function for the construction of fuzzy rules and the tuning of membership functions. Experimental results with the inverted pendulum show the superiority of the proposed method in comparison to the conventional fuzzy controller.

Current domestic waterproofing market in Korea mainly uses single-ply waterproofing materials comprised of coatings or waterproof sheets and two or more-ply composite waterproofing methods. In order to evaluate these types of composite waterproofing systems, a new test equipment and method that incorporates various deterioration conditions (joint displacement, chemical exposure, water pressure etc) was developed. In a comparison testing, the results showed that flexible type materials have higher response performance towards joint displacement than the hardened material. Furthermore, the importance of securing the stability of the waterproofing method in the vulnerable over-lap joint areas of waterproofing sheets is emphasized.

Slipforming is a construction method in which the forms move continuously during concrete placement. This paper presents a numerical procedure based on the finite element method to simulate the thermal behavior of concrete during slipforming operations. The validity of the model was successfully tested by simulating a very complex but well documented field case of actual slipforming operations performed during the construction of an offshore concrete oil platform structure. The results obtained have been related to the shape of the concrete "hardened front" in the forms, which allows quick evaluation of the operation. The results of the numerical investigation have shown that the shape of the "hardened front" can be affected by the temperature of the fresh concrete and ambient conditions. For a given initial concrete temperature, there are limitations for the ambient temperature that, when exceeded, can create an unfavorable shape of the concrete "hardened front" in the forms. Similarly, for a given ambient temperature, the initial concrete temperature should not be fall below an established limit in order to avoid unfavorable shape of the "hardened front".

The objects of the nature have three dimensional (3-D) parameters. The 3-D profiles are embedded on the photographs and microscopic images. To understand 3-D configuration, stereo pair image with thick section is frequently employed. The perception of 3-D images is possible with the aid of stereoscopic glasses, although the expert can perceive 3-D images without the glasses. Anaglyphic stereo images are constructed by various softwares from commercial and freeware. Here we would like to present an easy anaglyphs construction method with Adobe $Photoshop^{(R)}$ based on tilting paired images from high voltage electron microscope. The anaglyphic stereo images constructed revealed the same 3-D perception with conventional stereoscopy. We could zoom in/out the anaglyph image digitally to investigate the detail configuration by real time. This method is expected to contribute to understanding complex structures 3 dimensionally.

During the drawing of reentrant section like a spline, the unfilled in the corner of dies or the bended product emerges from the large reduction of area, the complex shaped sections and other nonuniform properties in material and lubrication conditions. In this study, the drawing of the spline section with the non-rotary symmetry from a circular aluminum billet has been analyzed by using commercial code DEFORM-3D. A new die construction method preventing the spline from the drawback of bending and the unfilled defect has been suggested and verified through the analysis using centroid shift method and the hybrid construction between converged and diverged profile.

The fire that broke out in a residential and commercial complex in Ulsan in October 2020 was large, but no deaths occurred. For this reason, there was a difference from the previous cases, so it was analyzed through field survey. The fire was expanded to the entire building by aluminum composite panels constructed by external heat method and SMC panels in evacuation safety zones, and fire was expanded to nearby mart due to wind on the day of the fire, and there were many evacuation spaces such as 15th, 28th, and rooftop heliports.

Schedule management of construction work is important in order to complete construction projects within a given period of time. As activities increase and relations become more complex, schedule management software becomes increasingly necessary. To address this, attempts are being made to incorporate web-based ICT (information and communications technology) in construction project management. This research proposed a method to manage construction schedules via web pages using Flash. The interactive and graphic property of Flash enables a field manager to manage schedules easily and efficiently. A prototype was implemented using Flash and Action Script, and it was applied to a sample network in a web page.

While the plant projects grow bigger and global attention to the plant is increasing, efficient space arrangement is not working in plant project because of the complex structure in installing the equipment unlike the construction project. In addition to this, presently, problem in installation process caused by the disagreement between floor plan and real spot is rising. Therefore the target of this research is to solve the problems and reaction differences, caused by changing the space arrangement in installing the equipment of plant construction. And this research suggests the equipment arrangement method for construction and related processes. To solve the problem, 3D cloud point data of space and equipment is collected by 3D laser scanning and the space matching is operated. In processing the space matching, data is simplified by applying the octree algorithm. This research simplifies the 3D configuration data acquired by 3D scanner equipment through the octree algorithm, and by comparing this data, identifies the space for target equipment, and finally suggests the algorithm that makes the auto space arrangement of equipment possible in construction site and also suggests the process to actualize this algorithm.

Underground infrastructure systems provide essential public services and goods through buried structures including water and sewer, gas and petroleum, power and communication pipelines. The majority of existing underground infrastructure systems was installed in green field areas prior to development of complex urban built environments. Currently, there is a global trend to escalate major demand for underground infrastructure system renewal and new installation while minimizing disruption and maintaining functions of existing superstructures. Therefore, Engineers and utility owners are rigorously seeking technologies that minimize environmental, social, and economic impact during the renewal and installation process. Trenchless technologies have proven to be socially less disruptive, more environmentally friendly, energy conservative and economically viable alternative methods. All of those benefits are adequate to enhance overall sustainability. This paper describes effective sustainable solutions using trenchless technologies. Sustainability is assessed by a comparison between conventional open cut and trenchless technology methods. Sustainability analysis is based on a broad perspective combining the three main aspects of sustainability: economic; environmental; and social. Economic includes construction cost, benefit, and social cost analysis. Environmental includes emission estimation and environmental quality impact study. Social includes various social impacts on an urban area. This paper summarizes sustainable trenchless technology solutions and presents a sustainable construction method selection process in a proposed framework to be used in urban underground infrastructure capital improvement projects.
