MPEG4 High Efficiency Advanced Audio Coding (HE-AAC) and MPEG Surround are one of the most efficient combinations for low bit rate multi-channel audio coding. Based on the fact that these two codecs have identical quadrature mirror filter (QMF) analysis and synthesis structures, we propose a dual-domain connection scheme for the codecs. Specifically two time-domain connection methods are analyzed and compared to the QMF subband-domain connection method. Experimental results show that both the time-domain connection methods cause no subjective sound quality degradation compared to the QMF subband-domain connection method, which verifies that one can select either of them depending on application scenarios.

This paper aims to probabilistically evaluate performance of two types of I beam to box column (IBBC) connection. With the objective of considering the variability of seismic loading demand, statistical features of the inter-story drift ratio corresponding to the second, fifth and eleventh story of a 12-story steel special moment resisting frames are extracted through incremental dynamic analysis at global collapse state. Variability of geometrical variables and material strength are also taken into account. All of these random variables are exported as inputs to a probabilistic finite element model which simulates the connection. At the end, cumulative distribution functions of local seismic demand for each component of each connection are provided using histogram sampling. Through a parametric study on probabilistic local seismic demand, the influence of some geometrical random variables on the performance of IBBC connections is demonstrated. Furthermore, the probabilistic study revealed that IBBC connection with widened flange has a better performance than the un-widened flange. Also, a design procedure is proposed for WF connections to achieve a same connection performance in different stories.

We present a semi-rigid connection estimation method by using cross modal strain energy method. While rigid or pinned assumptions are adopted for steel frames in traditional modeling via finite element method, the actual behavior of the connections is usually neither. Semi-rigid joints enable connections to be modeled as partially restrained, which improves the quality of the model. To identify the connection stiffness and update the FE model, a newly-developed cross modal strain energy (CMSE) method is extended to incorporate the connection stiffness estimation. Meanwhile, the relations between the correction coefficients for the CMSE method are derived, which enables less modal information to be used in the estimation procedure. To illustrate the capability of the proposed parameter estimation algorithm, a four-story frame structure is demonstrated in the numerical studies. Several cases, including Semi-rigid joint(s) on single connection and on multi-connections, without and with measurement noise, are investigated. Numerical results indicate that an excellent updating is achievable and the connection stiffness can be estimated by CMSE method.

Dams are inevitably planned to be built on thick overburden with high permeability and deformability. The connection part between concrete cut-off wall in overburden and earth core in dam body is not only a key part of the anti-seepage system, but also a weak position. Large uneven settlement will be aroused at the concoction part. However, the interaction behavior and the scope of the connection part cannot be determined effectively. In this paper, numerical analysis of a high earth core dam built on thick overburden was carried out with large deformation FE method. The mechanical behavior of the connection part was detail studied. It can be drawn that there is little differences in dam integral deformation for different analysis method, but big differences were found at the connection part. The large deformation analysis method can reasonably describe the process that concrete wall penetrates into soil. The high plasticity clay has stronger ability to adapt to large uneven deformation which can reduce stress level, and stress state of concrete wall is also improved. The scope of high plasticity clay zone in the connection part can be determined according to stress level of soils and penetration depth of concrete wall.

캘리포니아의 강구조 모멘트프레임은 1994년 노스리지 지진시 6.8의 규모와 진앙지에서 근접한 지리적인 악조건에도 불구하고 붕괴나 인명피해 없이 잘 견뎌냈다. 그러나 이후 시행된 조사에서 경제적으로 지진시 안전하다고 믿어져 널리 쓰인 welded flange-bolted web(WFBW) 강접합부(moment connection)의 기둥과 용접의 경계면에서 취성 파괴가 다수 발견되었다. 이논문은 선형파괴역학과 노스리지진이후의 WFBW 강접합부 실험을 이용하여 WFBW 강접합부와 노스리지지진이후 기존 강접합부의 대안으로 추천되고 있는 reduced beam section (RBS) 강접합부의 취성 파괴강도를 결정하는 수치적인 방법을 제안하고 이를 이용하여 이들 강접합부의 취성 파괴모드를 추정하였다.

In order to propose ways to implement mathematical connection between algebra and geometry, this study reinterpreted and visualized the Khayyam's geometric method solving the cubic equations using two conic sections and the Al-Kāshi's method of constructing of angle trisection using a cubic equation. Khayyam's method is an example of a geometric solution to an algebraic problem, while Al-Kāshi's method is an example of an algebraic a solution to a geometric problem. The construction and property of conics were presented deductively by the theorem of "Stoicheia" and the Apollonius' symptoms contained in "Conics". In addition, I consider connections that emerged in the alternating process of algebra and geometry and present meaningful Implications for instruction method on mathematical connection.

IER은 굴착 중에 안정성을 증가시키기 위해서 전면지주에 배면지주를 기울어지게 설치하고 강결시킨 구조이다. IER은 배면지주가 억지말뚝의 역할을 함으로써 전면지주에 발생하는 수평변위를 억제하는 효과가 있고, 전면지주에 작용하는 토압을 분산 시켜 구조적으로 안정한 가시설 공법이다. 본 연구에서는 사질토 지반에서 수치해석과 실내모형실험을 통해 IER의 두부를 강결과 힌지로 조건을 다르게 연결하여 IER의 역학적 특성을 확인하였다. 수치해석 결과, 최대수평변위는 두부의 연결 방법이 강결일 때 힌지일 때의 88%가 발생하고 실내모형실험 결과, 수평변위는 두부 연결 방법이 강결일 때 힌지일 때의 단지 7%만 발생하는 것으로 분석되었다. 또한, 지반의 전단변형 해석 결과 토압은 두부의 연결 방법이 강결일 때 힌지일 때의 67%만 작용하는 것으로 분석되었다.

As reviewing of current trend on PC connection details, owing to effective stress transfer in the connection, it grow to increase that use of mechanical splices, reinforcements or welded splices, and prestressing. However such devices as reinforcement, mechanical splices entail not only more cost resulted from materials but also extra construction process so as to cause PC used method to lower competition against conventional method. Therefore more enhanced connection details which help working process simplified and construction cost reduced. In this research, as replace 9.3mm 7strand for reinforcement, it is attempt to devise connection detail which makes workability improve and confirm effective stress transfer in the region of connection. The experimental research is proceeded by partial tension test of specimen. The splice lengths of 7strand is decided to be variations. The flexural capability is verified to depend on spice length. An an appropriate splice length could be also determined as a precedent research on improving PC connection detail.

블록식 보강토옹벽의 설계 시 국부적 안정성 평가에 있어서 실험적 방법을 통한 전면블록과 보강재 사이의 연결강도에 대한 특성을 평가해야 한다. 그러나 NCMA 및 FHWA에서 제안하고 있는 연결강도 평가방법을 적용할 경우에는 다소 보수적인 평가결과 나타나게 된다. 따라서 본 연구에서는 전면블록과 지오그리드 보강재 사이의 연결강도 시험을 수행하였다. 또한 시험결과를 NCMA, FHWA 및 Soong & Koerner가 제안한 평가방법에 의해 블록식 보강토옹벽 설계사례에 적용하였다. 그 결과, Soong & Koerner에 의해 제안된 연결강도 시험으로부터 얻어진 극한연결강도를 허용연결강도로서 적용하여도 설계시 요구되는 안정성을 만족하는 것으로 나타났다.
