In this paper, we analyze the characteristics of various curved waveguides composed of double metal strips using finite difference method (FDM). Our investigation reveals that the bending loss of the double metal strip waveguide can be improved with less degradation of the straight waveguide's propagation loss compared to the single metal strip structure. Optimization of the double metal strip waveguide structure has been conducted considering bending and propagation losses.

In this paper, n this paper, E-polarized electromagnetic scattering problems by a resistive strip grating between a double dielectric layer are analyzed by applying the PMM(Point Matching Method) known as a numerical method of electromagnetic fileld. The boundary conditions are applied to obtain the unknown field coefficients, and the resistive boundary condition is applied to analysis of the resistive strip. The numerical results for the normalized reflected and transmitted power are analyzed by according as the relative permittivity and thickness of the double dielectric layers, and the resistivity of resistive strip. Overall, when the resistivity of the resistive strip decreased or the relative permittivity of the dielectric layer increased, the reflected power increased, and as the reflected power increased, the transmitted power decreased relatively. Especially, as the relative permittivity of double dielectric layer increases, the minimum value of the variation curve of the reflected power shifted in the direction that the grating period decreased. The numerical results for the presented structure of this paper are shown in good agreement compared to those of the existing papers.

In this paper, TM(tranverse magnetic) electromagnetic scattering problems for resitive strip grating between grounded double dielectric layers are analyzed by using the FGMM(fourier galerkin moment method) and PMM(point matching method) known as a numerical method of electromagnetic field. The boundary conditions are applied to obtain the unknown field coefficients, the resistive boundary condition is applied to analysis of resistive strip. Overall, when the unoform resistivity decreased, the magnitude of the current density induced in the resistive strip increased, and the reflected power also increased. Also, as the thickness and relative permittivity of the double dielectric layers increased, the overall reflected power increased. The numerical results obtained by using the numerical methods of FGMM and PMM to the structure proposed in this paper agree very well.

This paper presents a revised procedure for computation of double-K fracture parameters of concrete split-tension cube specimen using weight function of the centrally cracked plate of finite strip with a finite width. This is an improvement over the previous work of the authors in which the determination of double-K fracture parameters of concrete for split-tension cube test using weight function of the centrally cracked plate of infinite strip with a finite width was presented. In a recent research, it was pointed out that there are great differences between a finite strip and an infinite strip regarding their weight function and the solution of infinite strip can be utilized in the split-tension specimens when the notch size is very small. In the present work, improved version of LEFM formulas for stress intensity factor, crack mouth opening displacement and crack opening displacement profile presented in the recent research work are incorporated. The results of the double-K fracture parameters obtained using revised procedure and the previous work of the authors is compared. The double-K fracture parameters of split-tension cube specimen are also compared with those obtained for standard three point bend test specimen. The input data required for determining double-K fracture parameters for both the specimen geometries for laboratory size specimens are obtained using well known version of the Fictitious Crack Model.

In this paper, E-polarized electromagnetic scattering problems by a conductive strip grating between a double dielectric layer are analyzed by applying the FGMM(Fourier-Galerkin moment method) known as a numerical method of electromagnetic fileld. The boundary conditions are applied to obtain the unknown field coefficients, and the conductive boundary condition is applied to analysis of the conductive strip. The numerical results for the normalized reflected and transmitted power are analyzed by according as the width and spacing of conductive strip, the relative permittivity and thickness of the double dielectric layers, and incident angles. Generally, as the value of the dielectric constant of the double dielectric layer increases, the reflected power increases and the transmitted power decreases, respectively. As the dielectric constant of the double dielectric layer increases, the current density induced in the strip center increases. The numerical results for the presented structure of this paper are shown in good agreement compared to those of the existing papers.

Typically, the reflected power for the conductive strip increased as the value of the relative dielectric constant increased, the reflected power for the resistive strip with uniform resistivity decreased as the value of the resisvivity increased. The numerical results for the presented structure of this paper are shown in good agreement compared to those of the existing papers.

Steel-concrete-steel (SCS) sandwich composite structure with corrugated-strip connectors (CSC) has the potential to be used in buildings and offshore structures. In this structure, CSCs are used to bond steel face plates and concrete. To overcome executive problems, in the proposed system by the authors, shear connectors are one end welded as double skin composites. Hence, this system double skin with corrugated-strip connectors (DSCS) is named. In this paper, finite element model (FEM) of push-out test was presented for the basic component of DSCS. ABAQUS/Explicit solver in ABAQUS was used due to the geometrical complexity of the model, especially in the interaction of the shear connectors with concrete. In order that the explicit analysis has a quasi-static behavior with a proper approximation, the kinetic energy (ALLKE) did not exceed 5% to 10% of the internal energy (ALLIE) using mass-scaling. The FE analysis (FEA) was validated against those from the push-out tests in the previous work of the authors published in this journal. By comparing load-slip curves and failure modes, FEMs with suitable analysis speed were consistent with test results.
