The traditional double story isolated structure is a derivative of the base isolated and inter-story isolated structures, while the new double story isolated structure represents a novel variation derived from the traditional double story isolated structure. In order to investigate the seismic response of the new double story isolated structure, a comprehensive structural model was developed. Concurrently, models for the basic fixed, base isolated, inter-story isolated, and traditional double story isolated structures were also established for comparative analysis. The nonlinear dynamic time-history response of the new double story isolated structure under rare earthquake excitations was analyzed. The findings of the study reveal that, in comparison to the basic fixed structure, the new double story isolated structure exhibits superior performance across all evaluated aspects. Furthermore, when compared to the base isolated and inter-story isolated structures, the new double story isolated structure demonstrates significant reductions in inter-story shear force, top acceleration, and inter-frame displacement. The horizontal displacement of the new double story isolated structure is primarily localized within the two isolation layers, effectively dissipating the majority of input seismic energy. In contrast to the traditional double story isolated structure, the new design minimizes displacements within the inter-isolation layer situated in the central part of the frame, as well as mitigates the overturning forces acting on the lower frame column. Consequently, this design ensures the structural integrity of the core tube, thereby preventing potential collapse and structural damage.

Earthquakes can lead to substantial damage to buildings, with long-period ground motion being particularly destructive. The design of high-performance building structures has become a prominent focus of research. The double-story isolated structure is a novel type of isolated structure developed from base isolated structure. To delve deeper into the building performance of double-story isolated structures, the double-story isolated structure was constructed with the upper isolated layer located in different layers, alongside a base isolated structure for comparative analysis. Nonlinear elastoplastic analyses were conducted on these structures using different ground motion inputs, including ordinary ground motion, near-field impulsive ground motion, and far-field harmonic ground motion. The results demonstrate that the double-story isolated structure can extend the structural period further than the base isolated structure under three types of ground motions. The double-story isolated structure exhibits lower base shear, inter-story displacement, base isolated layer displacement, story shear, and maximum acceleration of the top layer, compared to the base isolated structure. In addition, the double-story isolated structure generates fewer plastic hinges in the frame, causes less damage to the core tube, and experiences smaller overturning moments, demonstrating excellent resistance to overturning and a shock-absorbing effect. As the upper isolated layer is positioned higher, the compressive stress on the isolated bearings of the upper isolated layer in the double-story isolated structure gradually decreases. Moreover, the compressive stress on the isolated bearings of the base isolated layer is lower compared to that of the base isolated structure. However, the shock-absorbing capacity of the double-story isolated structure is significantly increased when the upper isolated layer is located in the middle and lower section. Notably, in regions exposed to long-period ground motion, a double-story isolated structure can experience greater seismic response and reduced shock-absorbing capacity, which may be detrimental to the structure.

The present study investigates noise and condensation characteristics of polyvinyl chloride (PVC), which is widely used for drainage piping materials, complex double structure by comparing to those of PVC single structure piping materials. In addition, effects of insulation on drainage noise has been measured experimentally. As the results of the experiments, noise reduction effect of PVC complex double structure is superior to that of PVC single structure in terms of elbow and vertical piping materials which are employed for drainage pipes of toilet bowls and bathtub. The insulation barely have effect on the noise reduction in case of the PVC single structure since there is almost no changes in noise occurrence even though the insulation is applied on both elbow and vertical piping materials. Temperature differences between inside and outside of the pipes have been measures for the PVC single and complex double structures as well. In consequence, outside temperature of the PVC complex double structure is higher than that of the PVC single structure. The condensation occurrence time of the PVC complex double structure shows a distinct difference from that of the PVC single structure, thus, the PVC complex double structure has outstanding effect on preventing the condensation.

The purpose of this paper is to provide a multi-modular account of double accusative constructions in Korean in the framework of Autolexical Grammar. The grammar views syntactic, semantic, and morphological structures of sentences as modules which are generated simultaneously and independently. Unlike syntactocentric theories, this paper analyzes semantic characteristics of double accusatives through function-argument (F/A) structure along with roles structure (RS) and information structure (IS). In F/A structure of double accusatives, the first accusative becomes an argument of a predicate, unlike the possessive, which is an argument of a relational noun. Furthermore, the first accusative of double accusatives takes the role of patient in RS, which allows it to become the subject of a passive sentence. On the other hand, the second accusative, which is originally the possessee, becomes a focal area in IS. Therefore, the purpose of double accusatives is twofold: one is to turn the possessor into an independent argument of a predicate which takes patient role, and the other is to turn the possessee into a focus. Such semantic characteristics of double accusatives can be expressed by means of multi-dimensional structures of F/A structure, RS, and IS of Autolexical Grammar, which allows an integrated account of the phenomenon.

Layered Double Hydroxides is known as a hydrotalcite-like material. It is a type of anionic clay with planar structure. It is composed of layer structure which is able to exchange anion between two layers which includes divalent ion and trivalent ion. Therefore, layered double hydroxide is applicable for eliminating harmful heavy metals and anionic substances which exist in the concrete. Because it is also able to be used as catalyst and has high possibility of utilization, It is getting an large amount of attention recently. In this study, an analysis on the structure of the layerd double hydroxide (LDH) which is possible to bind the anion was carried out.

In this paper, 1700 V EPDT (Extended P+ shielding floating gate Double Trench) MOSFET structure, which has a smaller switching time and loss than CDT (Conventional Double Trench) MOSFET, is proposed. The proposed EPDT MOSFET structure extended the P+ shielding area of the source trench in the CDT MOSFET structure and divided the gate into N+ and floating P- polysilicon gate. By comparing the two structures through Sentaurus TCAD simulation, the on-resistance was almost unchanged, but Crss (Gate-Drain Capacitance) decreased by 32.54 % and 65.5 %, when 0 V and 7 V was applied to the gate respectively. Therefore, the switching time and loss were reduced by 45 %, 32.6 % respectively, which shows that switching performance was greatly improved.
