In this study, on-site testing was carried out to investigate the vibration serviceability of a composite steel-bar truss slab with steel girder system. Impulse excitations (heel-drop and jumping) and steady-state motion (walking and running) were performed to capture the primary vibration parameters (natural frequency and damping ratio) and distribution of peak acceleration. The composite floor possesses low frequency (<8.3Hz) and damping ratio (<2.47%). Based on experimental, theoretical, and numerical analyses on fundamental natural frequency, the boundary condition of SCSS (i.e., three edges simply supported and one edge clamped) is deemed more comparable substitutive for the investigated composite floor. Walking and running excitations by one person (single excitation) were considered to evaluate the vibration serviceability of the composite floor. The measured acceleration results show a satisfactory vibration perceptibility. For design convenience and safety, a crest factor β_rp describing the ratio of peak acceleration to root-mean-square acceleration induced from the walking and running excitations is proposed. The comparisons of the modal parameters determined by walking and running tests reveal the interaction effect between the human excitation and the composite floor.

Generally, ZnO varistors have dynamic characteristics that the cut-off voltage increases as the time to crest of the varistor current decreases. Dynamic characteristics of ZnO varistor are the most important factor in region of the steep front discharge current particularly. Also, V-I characteristics of ZnO varistor have hysterisis loop in time domain and frequency dependency. This paper deals with ZnO varistor numerical equation and modeling method which takes the behavior of varying clamping voltage into consideration during the time to crest, in range of $1{\mu}m{\sim}50{\mu}m$, of impulse current applied to a ZnO varistor. The simulated results by the proposed model are compared with experimental results for each of the impulse current.

A three-dimensional slope valve component is used for controlling micro volume of liquid on a centrifugal force-based microfluidic disk platform, also called a lab-on-a-disk. The modeling factor of the slope valve component is determined to centrifugal force for liquid passing the crest of a slope valve via variation of slope length and angle as well as the radius to start point of slope valve. The centrifugal force is calculated by the equilibrium equation of the capillary and gravitational forces according to the microchannel surface roughness and the liquid volume, respectively. As a result, the slope valve is analyzed by the minimum angular velocity for liquid passing at crest point and the ratio between the length of micro liquid and slope length to obtain the factors for optimal slope angle modeling.

This paper presents a high frequency electronic ballast with high efficiency and high power factor. The proposed ballast have driven by the half bridge inverter which is linked diode rectifier without DC link capacitor. Minimized elements of circuit configurations can make the efficiency of the ballast increase. High input power factor which is up to 0.96 can be achieved and the crest factor of lamp current waveforms is controlled with below 1.75 by using a novel control scheme which has PFM and PWM methods simultaneously. In this paper, the circuit configurations of the proposed ballast and the control schemes are described. The usefulness of the proposed ballast is confirmed with the simulation results.

소규모 풍력 및 태양광설비가 기존의 배전계통에 연계되어 전압변동, 역률, 주파수, 고조파, 플리커 등의 전원품질 요소에 영향을 줄 것으로 우려하고 있다. 따라서 본 연구에서는 풍력발전설비(AC 링크방식)가 연계된 배전계통의 전력품질에 어떠한 영향을 줄 수 있는지에 대한 조사를 위하여 현재 운영 중에 있는 풍력발전설비의 전력변환장치 앞과 배전선로측 수용가 전원설비 2차측에 각각 전력품질 분석 장치를 설치하여 실측하고 풍력발전기가 가동과 정지 상태에서 배전선로측에 어떠한 영향을 주는지에 대하여 분석하였다. 분석결과 발전기가 가동 및 정지 시 전압변동이 0.34[%] 상승, 전류파형파고율 0.145 정도 상승, 위상차가 가동 중일 때 0.6[$^{\circ}$] 정도의 편차를 발생시켰다.

This paper presents an investigation on bearing capacity, load-settlement behavior and safety factor of rock-soil slopes reinforced using geogrid-box method (GBM). To this end, small-scale laboratory studies were carried out to study the load-settlement response of a circular footing resting on unreinforced and reinforced rock-soil slopes. Several parameters including unit weight of rock-soil materials (loose- and dense-packing modes), slope height, location of footing relative to the slope crest, and geogrid tensile strength were studied. A series of finite element analysis were conducted using ABAQUS software to predict the bearing capacity behavior of slopes. Limit equilibrium and finite element analysis were also performed using commercially available software SLIDE and ABAQUS, respectively to calculate the safety factor. It was found that stabilization of rock-soil slopes using GBM significantly improves the bearing capacity and settlement behavior of slopes. It was established that, the displacement contours in the dense-packing mode distribute in a broader and deeper area as compared with the loose-packing mode, which results in higher ultimate bearing load. Moreover, it was found that in the loose-packing mode an increase in the vertical pressure load is accompanied with an increase in the soil settlement, while in the dense-packing mode the load-settlement curves show a pronounced peak. Comparison of bearing capacity ratios for the dense- and loose-packing modes demonstrated that the maximum benefit of GBM is achieved for rock-soil slopes in loose-packing mode. It was also found that by increasing the slope height, both the initial stiffness and the bearing load decreases. The results indicated a significant increase in the ultimate bearing load as the distance of the footing to the slope crest increases. For all the cases, a good agreement between the laboratory and numerical results was observed.

Purpose : Cortical bone thickness is one of the important factor in mini-implant stability. This study was performed to investigate the buccal cortical bone thickness at every interdental area as an aid in planning mini-implant placement. Materials and Methods : Two-dimensional slices at every interdental area were selected from the cone-beam computed tomography scans of 20 patients in third decade. Buccal cortical bone thickness was measured at 2, 4, and 6 mm levels from the alveolar crest in the interdental bones of posterior regions of both jaws using the plot profile function of $Ez3D2009^{TM}$ (Vatech, Yongin, Korea). The results were analyzed using by Mann-Whitney test. Results : Buccal cortical bone was thicker in the mandible than in the maxilla. The thickness increased with further distance from the alveolar crest in the maxilla and with coming from the posterior to anterior region in the mandible (p<0.01). The maximum CT value showed an increasing tendency with further distance from the alveolar crest and with coming from posterior to anterior region in both jaws. Conclusion : Interdental buccal cortical bone thickness varied in both jaws, however our study showed a distinct tendency. We expect that these results could be helpful for the selection and preparation of mini-implant sites.

Detection of arcing high impedance faults has been a perplexing in the power distribution protection. Transient analysis of distribution disturbances for fault discrimination from other normal events is important for a secure protection of the power system. A simple parameter of wave form distortion quantification is used to analyze the behaviors of arcing faults and normal distribution disturbances. Theoretical perspectives of the transients were studied and actual disturbances were examined. From this investigation, a discrimination guideline based on the revised crest factor is developed. The discrimination method has a high potential to enhance the reliability and security for the distribution system protection.

RMS, Kurtosis, Crest factor, Probability of exceedance와 Probability density function 등의 통계적 파라미터를 선정하여 베어링의 사용조건과 결함진전에 따른 변화특성을 조사하였다. 이를 위해 4볼 시험기에서 하중, 회전수 및 시간을 변화시키면서 실험하여 진동신호를 수집하고, 이를 A/D변환시킨 후 디지털 필터링하여 주파수 대역별 통계적 파라미터 값을 계산하였다. 실험결과, 하중이나 회전수와 같은 운전조건이 변화하는 경우 RMS의 값은 운전조건 변화에 따라 변하지만 Kurtosis 등의 통계적 파라미터들은 운전조건과 무관하게 steady한 결과를 나타내었다. 또한 통계적 파라미터와 시간과의 상관관계에 대한 실험으로부터 통계적 파라미터들을 결함의 진전 상태를 나타내는 파라미터로 사용할 수 있음을 확인하였으며, 따라서 파손방지를 위한 예측지표로서 이들 통계적 파라미터를 이용할 수 있을것으로 판단되었다.

본 연구에서는 개량형 공압식 가동보를 대상으로 가동보의 기립 각도변화에 따른 잠김흐름 특성을 분석하고 유량계수를 산정하였다. 실험결과, 위어마루에서 하류수면까지의 높이와 위어마루에서 상류 수면고 높이의 비($h_t/H$)에 대한 유량감소계수($Q_s/Q_1$)의 변화는 ($h_t/H$가 1에 가까울수록 감소하였다. 따라서 보 하류에서의 수심은 상류보다 작지만 보를 통과하는 흐름으로 인해 하류 유속이 빠르게 나타났으며, 유량이 증가할수록 상 하류 수위차는 감소하는 것으로 나타났다. 또한 같은 유량조건인 경우 하류수두는 L/W가 클수록 크게 증가하였다. 개량형 공압식 가동보의 잠김흐름 유량계수는 가동보의 물리적 제원보다는 상류 접근흐름수두와 상 하류 흐름조건에 의하여 결정되었다.
