  • In this work, a mathematical model of beam-column system carrying a double eccentric end mass system is investigated, and solved analytically based on the exact solution analysis. The model considers the case in which the double eccentric end mass is a rigid storage tank containing fluid. Both Timoshenko and Bernoulli-Euler beam bending theories are considered. Equation of motion, general solution and boundary conditions for the present system model are developed and presented in dimensional and non-dimensional format. Several important non-dimensional design parameters are introduced. Symbolic and/or explicit formulae of the frequency and mode shape equations are formulated. To the authors knowledge, the present reduced closed form symbolic and explicit frequency equations have not appeared in literature. For different applications, the results are validated using commercial finite element package, namely ANSYS. The beam-column system investigated in this paper is significant for many engineering applications, especially, in mechanical and structural systems.

  • This paper describes an automation of architectural design processes and the direction between this automation and robotic system in building construction using the concept of the object-oriented design in architecture. The research starts from the premise that many computer-aided design systems are mostly aimed at serving as drawing tools which are used only after a design formal solution has already been established by the architect. If the computer is well applied to the architectural design process, many positive things such as standardization of design detail, increasing productivity and collaboration, minimizing construction costs etc. can be done. To support an early design solution in the computer-based environment, the proposed automation was developed and tested in a real building project, using the object-oriented design concept such as product model. This design automation gives various design alternatives from the early design phase to the final stage of design details, according to musical harmony. This paper shows how architectural design process can be automated and how the data of the applied architectural design can be integrated into product model environment, in relation to robotic system in building construction.

  • We focus on resource allocation planning in container terminal operation planning problems and present network design model and genetic algorithm. We present a network design model in which arc capacities must be properly dimensioned to sustain the container traffic. This model supports various planning aspects of container terminal and brings in a very general form. The integer programming model of network design can be extended to accommodate vertical or horizontal yard configuration by adding constraints such as restricting the sum of yard cranes allocated to a block of yards. We devise a genetic algorithm for the network design model in which genes have the form of general integers instead of binary integers. In computational experiments, it is found that the genetic algorithm can produce very good solution compared to the optimal solution obtained by CPLEX in terms of computation time and solution quality. This algorithm can be used to generate many alternatives of a resource allocation plan for the container terminal and to evaluate the alternatives using various tools such as simulation.

  • Using ordors with the different concentration of essential oils, e studied the effect of a pleasant olfactory stimulation on physiological responses. we examined psychological response, mental task and changes in cardiac, immunity and EEG in responses to 150times solution (feel easily) and 500times solution (feel with difficulty) which of essential oil (called PCK) were diluted in propylene glycol, and neutral (water). The 150times solution that was felt pleasant produced significant differences (p<0.05) in relative power change of beta activity in the left frontal region (Fp1, F3, F7) of the brain, and heart rate (HR) deceleration after mental task. these results are consistent with substantial research that has documented cardiac and EEG responses to pleasant stimuli. What is more, 150times solution increased the concentration of s-IgA know as an index of immunity.

  • We have many foundations which were constructed on the karstic areas where solution cavities and fractured zone may form under, or close to foundations. The fact that the ground under the pier foundations was reinforced with the three axial high pressure jet grouting is confirmed through out about two hundred design reports. It is necessary that evaluation of a simple application of high pressure jet grouting method on the karstic areas containing solution cavities. In this study, the improved situation and reinforcing methods of the ground under the pier foundations are proposed based on the evaluation of design reports for the express highway and No.38 national roads.

  • Analytical solutions have been derived to delineate the capture zone created by pumping wells for the remediation design of contaminated groundwater. These previous analytical solutions are often restricted to pumping wells only, specific well locations, a limited number of wells, and an isotropic aquifer. Analytical solution was developed to deal with arbitrarily located multi injection-pumping wells in an anisotropic homogeneous aquifer. The solution presented in this study provides a simple, easy method for determining tile complex flow field caused by multi injection-pumping wells at different rates, and will consequently be useful in pump-and-treat design.

  • For aerodynamic design of missile bodies of non-circular cross-section, the combination of the slender body theory and the cross-flow analogy can hardly be applied owing to the lack of experimental data. An alternative is to utilize the Euler solution in the design stage. For enhanced accuracy, however, an adequate viscous correction is necessary to the Euler solution. In this work, such a procedure is examined to compensate the viscous effect by utilizing the concept of proportionality factor in cross-flow analogy. Predictions of aerodynamic coefficients combining the Euler solution and the viscous correction via proportionality factor are made for a missile body of elliptic cross-section. Results indicate that the present approach can be adopted in designing missile bodies of non-circular cross-sections.

  • This paper deals with a capacitated ring-star network design problem (CRSNDP) with node capacity constraints. The CRSNDP is formulated as a mixed 0-1 integer problem, and a 2-phase heuristic solution procedure, ADD & VAM and RING, is developed, in which the CRSNDP is decomposed into two subproblems : the capacitated facility location problem (CFLP) and the traveling sales man problem (TSP). To solve the CFLP in phase I the ADD & VAM procedure selects hub nodes and their appropriate capacity from a candidate set and then assigns them user nodes under node capacity constraints. In phase II the RING procedure solves the TSP to interconnect the selected hubs to form a ring. Finally a solution of the CRSNDP can be achieved through combining two solution of phase I & II, thus a final design of the capacitated ring-star network is determined. The analysis of computational results on various random problems has shown that the 2-phase heuristic procedure produces a solution very fast even with large-scale problems.

  • This paper reports a Ringer's solution detector and transceiver design for the efficient management of patients. The ringer's solution detection and transceiver consisted of the main control part, ringer's solution detection part, display and warning light part, wireless transceiver, and power supply part. The light receiving part of the ringer's solution detection part employed TSL260R-LF photodiode; light permeating part, Water-Clear type LED; and wireless transceiver part, the RF wireless data transceiver module, NR-FPCX. As a result of this Ringer's solution detector and transceiver design that can manage the patient efficiently, it was found that when the ringer's solution was detected by the double photodiode, the operating frequency was 11.95kHz; when it was not detected, the number was 9.6kHz. In the ringer's solution receiver, when the ringer's solution was detected, the number was 0. The corresponding unique RF code was displayed when not detected. The power used in the ringer's solution detection part was converted to the Sleep mode to operate under battery save mode. The ringer's solution transceiver can exchange wireless communication approximately within a 700m radius.

  • Efficient designing of SRM Grains in the field of Rocketry is still the main test for most of the nations of world for scientific studies, commercial and military applications. There is a strong need to enhance thrust, improve the effectiveness of SRM and reduce mass of motor and burning time so as to allow the general design to increase the weight of payload/on board electronics. Moreover burning time can be increased while keeping the weight of the propellant and thrust in desired range, so as to give the time to control / general design group in active phase for incorporating delayed cut off if required. A mathematical design, optimization & analysis technique for Slotted Tube Grain has been discussed in this paper. In order to avoid the uncertainties that whether the Slotted Tube grain configuration being designed is best suited for achieving the set design goals and optimal of all the available designs or not, an efficient technique for designing SRM Grain and then getting optimal solution is must. The research work proposed herein addresses and emphasizes a design methodology to design and optimize Slotted Tube Grain considering particular test cases for which the design objectives and constraints have been given. In depth study of the optimized solution have been conducted thereby affects of all the independent parametric design variables on optimal solution & design objectives have been examined and analyzed in detail. In doing so, the design objectives and constraints have been set, geometric parameters of slotted tube grain have been identified, performance prediction parameters have been calculated, thereafter preliminary designs completed and finally optimal design reached. A Software has been developed in MATLAB for designing and optimization of Slotted Tube grains.
