본 논문은 상호 상관관계 함수의 특성을 이용하여 이 함수 특성인 입력파와 출력파의 상관관계를 구하여 Lamb파의 $A_o$ mode의 속도를 알루미늄(6061-T651)에서 측정하여 본 결과 정확한 값을 구하였기에 일반적으로 속도 측정이 매우 힘든 망상형 유리섬유 복합체에 대한 음파의 전파속도를 측정하였다. 본 상호 상관 관계 함수의 특징은 외부의 어떠한 잡음에도 영향을 받지않고 쉽고 정확히 측정할 수 있으므로 그 응용면에 상당한 가치가 있고 또한 여러가지 입력파에 대한 입력파 원천 및 전파 경로 분석이 용이하여 본 복합체의 섬유구조 형태도 조사하여 본 결과 정량적 분석도 가능함을 알 수 있었다.

A procedure of stress and strength analysis has been proposed for the centrifuge rotor of composite materials of quasi-isotropic laminates. The goal in this study is to maximize the allowable rotating speed, that is, to minimize maximum strength ratio with the given path length by changing the geometric parameter-outer radius and ply angles in quasi-isotropic laminates. Optimum values of the geometric parameter-outer radius and ply angles are obtained by multilevel optimization. All the geometric dimensions and stresses are normalized such that the result can be extended to a general case. Two dimensional analysis at each cross section with an elliptic tube hole subjected to internal hydrostatic pressures by samples as well as the centrifugal body forces has been performed along the height to calculate the stress distribution with the plane stress assumption, and Tsai-Wu failure criterion is used to calculate the strength ratio. The maximum allowable rotating speed can be increased by changing the radii of the outer surface along the height with the maximum strength ratio under the unit value : The optimal number of ply angles maximizing the allowable rotating speed in quasi-isotropic laminates is found to be the half number of tube hole, and the optimal laminate rotation angle is the half of $[{\pi}/m]$. A $[{\pi}/3]$ laminate, for instance, is stronger than a $[{\pi}/4]$ laminate for the centrifuge rotor of 6 tube hole number even though they have the same stiffness.

The Montmorillonite (MMT) in the polymer matrix is expected to reduce methanol permeability due to the tortous path formed by dispersed silicate layers. However, the polymer composite membranes containing non-proton conducting inorganic particle tend to show low proton conductivity. To solve this problem, we used an ion exchange method to prepare functionalized MMT with various silane coupling agents. The modified MMT was randomly dispersed in sulfonated poly (arylene ether sulfone) (SPAES) matrix to prepare SPAES/modified MMT composite membranes. The performances of hybrid membranes for DMFCs application were investigated. The SPAES/modified composite membrane showed increased proton conductivity compared with the non-modified MMT composite membrane. However, the methanol permeability of the SPAES/modified membrane was higher than that of the non-modified MMT.

Connections with damage concentrated to pre-selected components can enhance seismic resilience for moment resisting frames. These pre-selected components always yield early to dissipate energy, and their energy dissipation mechanisms vary from one to another, depending on their position in the connection, geometry configuration details, and mechanical characteristics. This paper presents behaviour insights on two types of beam-to-beam connections that the angles were designed as energy dissipation components, through the results of experimental study and finite element analysis. Firstly, an experimental programme was reviewed, and key responses concerning the working mechanism of the connections were presented, including strain distribution at the critical section, section force responses of essential components, and initial stiffness of test specimens. Subsequently, finite element models of three specimens were established to further interpret their behaviour and response that were not observable in the tests. The moment and shear force transfer paths of the composite connections were clarified through the test results and finite element analysis. It was observed that the bending moment is mainly resisted by axial forces from the components, and the dominant axial force is from the bottom angles; the shear force at the critical section is primarily taken by the slab and the components near the top flange. Lastly, based on the insights on the load transfer path of the composite connections, preliminary design recommendations are proposed. In particular, a resistance requirement, quantified by a moment capacity ratio, was placed on the connections. Design models and equations were also developed for predicting the yield moment resistance and the shear resistance of the connections. A flexible beam model was proposed to quantify the shear resistance of essential components.

LCP원섬유(fibril)와 폴리아미드6 (PA6)수지로 사출성형된 복합재료 박판(molded thin composite plaques)의 미세구조와 굽힘강도에 대한 에폭시수지 함유율의 효과를 살펴보았다. 성형은 LCP원섬유의 용융점 이하에서 하였으며 이렇게 만들어진 판재는 횡방향 배향을 보이는 두께 $65-120{\mu\textrm{m}}$의 표피층(surface skin layer), 유동방향과 거의 일치하는 배향을 보이는 표피아래층(sub-skin layer), 아크형 곡선유동형태를 보이는 심층(core layer)으로 구성되어 있었다. 에폭시함유율이 달라도 각 층의 미세구조방향은 유사하였으나 에폭시함유율이 증가함에 따라 LCP영역(domain)이 원섬유상에서 층상구조로 변했고 거시적 파괴진로(fracture path)는 인장형에서 전단형으로 바뀌었다. 또한 에폭시 4.8vol%에서 가장 우수한 굽힘강도와 파단변형율을 보였다. 굽힘강도를 수치해석한 결과 에폭시성분을 복합재에 부가하면 각 층의 두께와 미세구조 같은 기하학적인 형태가 변하면서 각 층 자체의 탄성계수와 강도가 열등화 되었음을 알았다.

이동통신의 급속한 보급과 발전에 의하여, 시가지에서의 전자파전파의 특성을 해명해야할 뿐만 아니라, 산림, 계곡 등의 외부 공간과 실내 공간 등의 전파난청 지역으로 불려오던 공간에 있어서도 안정적으로 통신을 이용할 수 있는 무선통신환경 개선의 중요성이 높게 요구 되고 있다. 더욱이, 이동통신의 디지털화와 더불어 건물 등에 의한 반사에 의해서 생기는 멀티패스에 기인하는 수신펄스의 시간지연이 고속디지털통신의 장해가 되고 있다. 이러한 도심 시가지에대한 전자파전파의 특성을 보다 정밀하게 추정하기 위해서는 건물 벽면의 구조 등의 영향도 고려 대상으로 포함 시킬 필요성이 있다. 따라서 본 논문에서는 FVTD(finite volume time domain)법을 적용하여, 기초적인 자료 보완을 위하여, 즉 주기적 구조에 의한 산란 특성과 불규칙적 표면을 포함하는 복합형 구조에 의한 2차원 전파환경 모델들에 대한 산란 특성을 조사 하였다.

강합성 플레이트 2-거더교는 피로균열에 의해 한 개의 거더에 심각한 손상이 발생되는 경우 교량의 붕괴가 유발되는 단재 하경로 구조로 인식되고 있다. 본 논문에서는 강합성 2-거더교의 거더 손상시 교량의 여유도를 평가하기 위한 해석적 연구를 수행하였다. 여유도 평가는 단경간 및 3경간 연속교를 대상으로 하였으며, 수직브레이싱은 I-단면 가로보로 적용하고 하부 수평브레이싱이 설치되는 경우와 설치되지 않는 경우를 고려하였다. 정상 상태 및 손상 상태의 교량에 대해 하부 수평브레이싱의 유 무에 따른 내하 성능을 재료 및 기하비선형 해석으로 구하고 각 경우의 여유도를 비교 평가하였다. 해석 결과에 따르면 정상 상태의 2-거더 교량은 단순교와 연속교 모두 수평브레이싱이 없어도 여유도가 충분하며, 손상 상태의 교량에서는 수평브레이싱이 여유도 향상에 중요한 역할을 하는 것으로 분석되었다.

With the development of cloud computing, more and more Web services are deployed on geo-distributed datacenters and are offered to cloud users all over the world. Through service composition technologies, these independent fine-grain services can be integrated to value-added coarse-grain services. During the composition, a number of Web services may provide the same function but differ in performance. In addition, the distribution of cloud datacenters presents a geographically dispersive manner, which elevates the impact of the network on the QoS of composite services. So it is important to select an optimal composition path in terms of QoS when many functionally equivalent services are available. To achieve this objective, we first present a graph model that takes both QoS of Web services and QoS of network into consideration. Then, a novel approach aiming at selecting the optimal composition path that fulfills the user's end-to-end QoS requirements is provided. We evaluate our approach through simulation and compare our method with existing solutions. Results show that our approach significantly outperforms existing solutions in terms of optimality and scalability.

Automatic guidance of farm tractors would improve productivity by reducing operator fatigue and increasing machine performance. To control tractors within $\pm$5cm of the desired path, fuzzy and adaptive steering controllers were developed to evaluate their characteristics and performance. Two input variables were position and yaw errors, and a steering command was fed to tractor model as controller output. Trapezoidal membership functions were used in the fuzzy controller, and a minimum-variance adaptive controller was implemented into the 2-DOF discrete-time input-output model. For unit-step and composite paths, a dynamic tractor simulator was used to test the controllers developed. The results showed that both controllers could control the tractor within $\pm$5cm error from the defined path and the position error of tractor by fuzzy controller was the bigger of the two. Through simulations, the output of self-tuning adaptive controller was relatively smooth, but the fuzzy controller was very sensitive by the change of gain and the shape of membership functions. Contrarily, modeling procedure of the fuzzy controller was simple, but the adaptive controller had very complex procedure of design and showed that control performance was affected greatly by the order of its model.

This study was conducted to evaluate recipients' perception of service quality, satisfaction, and behavioral intention in home delivered meals program in the US. Out of 398 questionnaires, 265 (66.6%) were collected, and 209 questionnaires (52.5%) were used for the statistical analysis. A Confirmatory Factor Analysis (CFA) with a maximum likelihood was first conducted to estimate the measurement model by verifying the underlying structure of constructs. The level of internal consistency in each construct was acceptable, with Cronbach's alpha estimates ranging from 0.7 to 0.94. All of the composite reliabilities of the constructs were over the cutoff value of 0.50, ensuring adequate internal consistency of multiple items for each construct. As a second step, a Meals-On-Wheels (MOW) recipient perception model was estimated. The model's fit as indicated by these indexes was satisfactory and path coefficients were analyzed. Two paths between (1) volunteer issues and behavioral intention and (2) responsiveness and behavioral intention were not significant. The path for predicting a positive relationship between food quality and satisfaction was supported. The results show that having high food quality may create recipient satisfaction. The findings suggest that food quality and responsiveness are significant predictors of positive satisfaction. Moreover, satisfied recipients have positive behavioral intention toward MOW programs.
