In this paper we introduce the property (C), which is a cone metric extension of the usual metric property (E,A) and consider fixed point theorems for generalized contractive mappings under suitable conditions in cone metric spaces without normal cones.

Let V be a Euclidean Jordan algebra with a symmetric cone K. We show that for a Z-transformation L with the additional property L(K) ⊆ K (which we will call ’cone-preserving’), GUS ⇔ strictly copositive on K ⇔ monotone + P. Specializing the result to the Stein transformation S_A(X) := X - AXA^T on the space of real symmetric matrices with the property $S_A(S^n_+){\subseteq}S^n_+$, we deduce that S_A GUS ⇔ I ± A positive definite.

In this note, we show that the cone property is satisfied for a class of dissipative equations of the form $u_t={\Delta}u+f(x,u,{\nabla}u)$ in a domain ${\Omega}{\subset}{\mathbb{R}}^2$ under the so called exactness condition for the nonlinear term. From this, we see that the global attractor is represented as a Lipshitz graph over a finite dimensional eigenspace.

Architectural fabrics are now used in membrane structure with the merits of free shape, lightness and opened up new possibility for the design of new building structures. Recently PVC, PVF, PVDF, PTFE coated fabric for using the membrane structures. However, clear standards for the design and construction is not exist because of the lack of Architectural fabric research. In this paper, Flammable properties of PVDF, PTFE coated fabrics are obtained through the Flammability test using the Cone Calorimeter. Based on these results, identify the fire resistance property of the Architectural fabric.

In this study, we conducted verification of key influencing factors during cone penetration testing using the developed Mini Cone Penetration Tester (Mini-CPT), and compared the experimental results with empirical formulas to validate the equipment. The Mini-CPT was designed to measure cone penetration resistance through a Strain Gauge, and the resistance values were calibrated using a Load Cell. Moreover, the influencing factors were verified using a model ground constituted in a soil box. The primary influencing factors examined were the boundary effect of the soil box, the distance between cone penetration points, and the cone penetration speed. For the verification of these factors, the experiment was conducted with the model ground having a relative density of 63.76% in the soil box. It was observed that the sidewall effect was considerably significant, and the cone penetration resistance measured at subsequent penetration points was higher due to the influence between penetration points. However, within the speed range considered, the effect of penetration speed was almost negligible. The measured cone penetration resistance was compared with predicted values obtained from literature research, and the results were found to be similar. It is anticipated that using the developed Mini-CPT for constructing model grounds in the laboratory will lead to more accurate geotechnical property data.

In this study, R/S analysis which was proposed by Mandelbrot & Wallis (1969) was applied to evaluate the presence of the fractal property in the cone tip resistance of in-situ CPT data. Hurst exponents (H) were evaluated in the range of 0.660$\sim$0.990 and the average was 0.875. It was confirmed that a cone tip resistance data had the characteristic of fractals and it was expected that cone tip resistance data sets are well approximated by a fBm process with an Hurst exponent near 0.875. It was also observed that the boundary between layers were obviously identified as a result of R/S analysis and it will be usage in practices.

Plate/plate 및 Truncated cone/plate 감지부를 이용한 시멘트반죽의 유변학적 특성 을 측정함에 있어 관련된 오차에 대한 실험 및 이론적 분석이 보고된다. 주요인자로는 감지 부 직경과 상하 감지부 사이의 간격이 고려되었다. Cone/plate 감지부의 원추끝을 깍아 간 격의 크기를 늘린 Truncated cone/plate 감지부의 토르크 분포에 대한 이론적 분석결과 원 추 간격이 0.7mm 까지 절단되더라도 8.5%의 오차범위내에서는 cone/plate 감지부의 역할을 수행하는 것으로 판단된다. 실험결과는 샘플주변의 상대습도가 결과에 영향을 끼치고 감지 부의 기하학적 요인에도 매우 민감함을 보여준다. 이결과는 정지시간을 포함한 오랜실험기 간동안 미소변형하에서 유변학적 특성을 연구하는데 도움이 될것으로 판단된다.

Recently, we reported the existence of AII "rod" amacrine cells in the retina of the greater horseshoe bat Rhinolophus ferrumequinum (Jeon et al., 2007). In order to enhance our understanding of bat vision, in the present study, we report on a quantitative analysis of cone and rod photoreceptors. The average cone density was $9,535cells/mm^2$, giving a total number of cones of 33,538 cells/retina. The average rod density was $368,891cells/mm^2$, giving a total number of rods of 1,303,517 cells. On average, the total populations of rods were 97.49%, and cones were 2.51% of all the photoreceptors. Rod: cone ratios ranged from 33.85:1 centrally to 42.26:1 peripherally, with a mean ratio of 38.96:1. The average regularity index of the cone mosaic in bat retina was 3.04. The present results confirm the greater horseshoe bat retina to be strongly rod-dominated. The rod-dominated retina, with the existence of AII cells discovered in our previous study, strongly suggests that the greater horseshoe bat retina has a functional scotopic property of vision. However, the existence of cone cells also suggests that the bat retina has a functional photopic property of vision.

Effects of particle property variation of cone crack shape according to impact velocity in silicon carbide materials were investigated. The damage induced by spherical impact having different material and size was different according to materials. The size of ring cracks induced on the surface of specimen increased with increase of impact velocity within elastic contact conditions. The impact of steel particle produced larger ring cracks than that of SiC particle. In case of high impact velocity, the impact of SiC particle produced radial cracks by the elastic-plastic deformation at impact regions. Also percussion cone was formed from the back surface of specimen when particle size become large and its impact velocity exceeded a critical value. Increasing impact velocity, zenithal angle of cone cracks in SiC material was linearly decreasing not effect of impact particle size. An empirical equation, $\theta=\theta_{st}-\upsilon_p(180-\theta_{st})(\rho_p/\rho_s)^{1/2}/415$, was obtained from the test data as a function of quasi-static zenithal angle of cone crack($\theta_{st}$), the density of impact particle(${\rho}_p$) and specimen(${\rho}_s$). Applying this equation to the another materials, the variation of zenithal angle of cone crack could be predicted from the particle impact velocity.

A brake device for the high-speed impacting object is designed using an axial crushing of thin-walled metal cylinder. Thickness of the cylinder is increased smoothly from the impacting end to the fixed end, resulting in the truncated cone shape. Truncated cone shape minimizes the imperfection-sensitivity of the structure and ensures that plastic hinges are formed sequentially from impacting end. This prevents the undesirable sudden rise in the first peak-crushing load. Several specimens with different conic angles, mean thickness of the wall, and materials were designed and quasi-static compression tests were performed on them. Results indicate that adoption of appropriate conic angle prevents simultaneous wrinkles generation and sudden rise of crushing load and that appropriate conic angle differs in each case, depending on the geometry and material property of the cylinder. Finite element analysis was performed for static compression of the cylinder and its accuracy was checked for the future application.
