The compressive behavior up to failure of short concrete members reinforced with fiber reinforced plastic (FRP) is investigated. Rectangular cross-sections are analysed by means of a simplified elastic model, able also to explain stress-concentration. The model allows one to evaluate the equivalent uniform confining pressure in ultimate conditions referred to the effective confined cross-section and to the effective stresses in FRP along the sides of section; consequently, it makes it possible to determine ultimate strain and the related bearing capacity of the confined member corresponding to FRP failure. The effect of local reinforcements constitute by single strips applied at corners before the continuous wrapping and the effect of round corners are also considered. Analytical results are compared to experimental values available in the literature.

Many of the bridge systems, including the girders and cross-beams, and concrete decks behave as the special othotropic plates. A method of calculating the natural frequency corresponding to the first mode of vibration of beam and tower structures with irregular cross-sections was developed and reported by D. H. Kim in 1974. Since 1989, The author has extended this method to Vibration analysis of two dimensional problems including composite laminates, and has reported at several conferenes. Frequently, the bridge floor panels are supported by girders and cross beams. Such panels as well as some of the building floor panels can be assumed as simple supported special orthotropic plates. In this paper, the result of application of simple method of vibration analysis developed by D. H. Kim, to the simply supported sandwich panels with point Mass/Masses is presented.

The purpose of this study is to analyze the stress-strain behavior of confined concrete columns with rectangular section. Uniaxial concentric loading tests of nineteen concrete columns with rectangular section ($150{\times}100$, $250{\times}100$, $350{\times}100\;mm$) were conducted. The main variables are transverse reinforcement volumetric ratio and spacing, cross tie arrangement, cross-section aspect ratio, and concrete strength. From the present experiments, it was found that the increase of transverse reinforcement ratio increases the maximum stress and ductility ratio and the reduction of the spacing of transverse reinforcement also increases the ductility and effective confinement. The increase of the aspect ratio of the cross-section does not influence much the stress-strain behavior of rectangular columns within the aspect ratio range of 3.5. The effect of concrete strength on ductility is also discussed.

End effects due to sectional deformations of thin-walled beams with closed cross section are analysed by a one-dimensional theory. In particular, end effects associated with warping (out of plane m otion) and distortion (in plane motion) are investigated. The exact solutions as a vector form are newly derived to reveal slowly-decaying nature of the end effects in a thin-walled beam loaded by a couple. Several examples of thin-walled beams under various loading conditions indicate that the local end effect zone due to warping and distortion is approximately ten times the typical beam width.

A study of the bending-extension-transverse shear coupled random response of the composite beams with thin-walled open sections subjected to various types of concentrated and distributed random excitations is dealt with in this paper. First of all, equations of motion of thin-walled composite H-type cross-section beams incorporating a number of nonclassical effects of transverse shear and primary and secondary warping, and anisotropy of constituent materials are derived. On the basis of derived equations of motion, analytical expressions for the displacement response of the composite beams are derived by using normal mode method combined with frequency response function method.

A numerical method is presented for the scattering by the perfectly conducting cylinder with arbitrary cross sections. The relevant integral equation considered by the E-field formulation is solved by method of moments, and thereby the surface current induced as well as the radar cross section of the scatterer are numerically computed to specify the scattering nature of the scatterer. Two separate methods, one with point matching and the other Galerkin's method, are considered to make cross checks to the results obtained. Taking two half pulses suggested to expand the surface current shows savings in computation time and accurate solutions for the corners on the scatterer.

The acattering characteristics by the TE incident wave are analysed for its dielectric cylinder with arbitrary cross section partially covered by thin conductors. The integro differential equations consistent with boundary conditions of conductors and dielectric boundaries are derived by the equivalence principle. They are transformed into matrix equations by moment method. The rectangular dielectric ctlinder partially coverd by conductors at the upper and bottom side of the cylinder is chosen for the numerical example. Current distributions on conductors and sacttring cross sections by the cylinder are computed for the TE incident perpendicular to the conductor plane.

We present a mathematical method for calculation of transmission zero locations, determining a filtering characteristics of two-port systems. By adjusting element values based on the zero locations, the frequency-selectivity is characterized. The characteristic polynomial of ladder networks in externally-loaded feed-forward systems is considered by adopting chain matrices for subsystems. This method can be extended to other types of lumped systems with cross-coupled sections. We find out the zeros by solving characteristics polynomials of closed-form expressions in terms of Laplace impedances of elements. The pairs of complex zeros are shown to be solely from the cross-coupled portion of the system.

Steel structural elements with web-tapered I cross section, are usually made of welded thin plates. Due to the nonrectangular shape of the element, thin web section may be obtained at the maximum cross section height. The buckling strength is directly influenced by lateral restraining, end support and initial imperfections. If no lateral restraints, or when they are not effective enough, the global behaviour of the members is characterized by the lateral torsional mode and interaction with sectional buckling modes may occur. Actual design codes do not provide a practical design approach for this kind of elements. The paper summarizes an experimental study performed by the authors on a relevant number of elements of this type. The purpose of the work was to evaluate the actual behaviour of the web tapered beam-columns when applying different types of lateral restraints and different web thickness.

This paper describes a new method for separation of the Volterra kernels which are identified by use of M-sequence. One of the authors has proposed a method for identification of Volterra kernels of nonlinear systems using M-sequence and correlation technique. When M-sequence are applied to a nonlinear systems, the cross-correlation function between the input and the output of the nonlinear systems includes cross-sections of high-order Volterra kernels. However, if various order Volterra kernels exixt on the obtained cross-correlation function, it is difficult to separate the Volterra kernels. In this paper, the authors show that the magnitude of Volterra kernels is maginified by the amplitude of M-sequence according to the order of Volterra kernels. By use of this property, each order Volterra kernels is obtained by solving linear equations. Simulations are carried out for some nonlinear systems. The results show that Volterra kernels can be separated in each order successfully by the proposed method.
