This study deals with the quasi-static tests on steel reinforced concrete composite columns with single embedded steel or multiple members. For the design of bridge piers, the composite section needs to have low steel ratio for cost savings because the dimension of the pier section is usually large. There is lack of design guidelines for these composite columns with low steel ratio, but the design provisions for the normal reinforced concrete column can be used for the design because of the low steel ratio. It is necessary to provide the design provisions in terms of the strength limit state and seismic performance by the detail requirements on the longitudinal steel and the transverse steel. The test parameters in this study were determined considering the current design provisions on RC columns. Through the quasi-static tests, the seismic performance of the composite columns were discussed.

Error correcting codes (ECC) are widely used in all types of memory in industry, including caches and embedded memory. The focus in this paper is on studying of power consumption in memory ECCs circuitry that provides single error correcting and double error detecting (SEC-DED) designed by various evolution strategies. The methods are applied to two commonly used SEC-DED codes: Hamming and odd column weight Hsiao codes. Finally, we conduct some simulations to show the performance of the various methods.

We propose a new reliable SVD-based watermarking scheme having high fidelity and strong robustness with no false-positive problem. Each column of the principal component of a watermark image is embedded into singular values of LL, LH, HL and HH sub-bands of cover image with different scale factors. Each scale factor is optimized by trading-off fidelity and robustness using Differential Evolution (DE) algorithm. The proposed scheme improves fidelity and robustness of existing reliable SVD based watermarking schemes without any false-positive problem. Index Terms - watermarking, reliable SVD, DWT, principal component, Differential Evolution.

In order to investigate the interface debonding defects detection mechanism between steel tube and concrete core of concrete-filled steel tubes (CFSTs), multi-physical fields coupling finite element models constituted of a surface mounted Piezoceramic Lead Zirconate Titanate (PZT) actuator, an embedded PZT sensor and a circular cross section of CFST column are established. The stress wave initiation and propagation induced by the PZT actuator under sinusoidal and sweep frequency excitations are simulated with a two dimensional (2D) plain strain analysis and the difference of stress wave fields close to the interface debonding defect and within the cross section of the CFST members without and with debonding defects are compared in time domain. The linearity and stability of the embedded PZT response under sinusoidal signals with different frequencies and amplitudes are validated. The relationship between the amplitudes of stress wave and the measurement distances in a healthy CFST cross section is also studied. Meanwhile, the responses of PZT sensor under both sinusoidal and sweep frequency excitations are compared and the influence of debonding defect depth and length on the output voltage is also illustrated. The results show the output voltage signal amplitude and head wave arriving time are affected significantly by debonding defects. Moreover, the measurement of PZT sensor is sensitive to the initiation of interface debonding defects. Furthermore, wavelet packet analysis on the voltage signal under sweep frequency excitations is carried out and a normalized wavelet packet energy index (NWPEI) is defined to identify the interfacial debonding. The value of NWPEI attenuates with the increase in the dimension of debonding defects. The results help understand the debonding defects detection mechanism for circular CFST members with PZT technique.

후방산란전자(BSE)는 입사전자빔이 시료와 충돌하면서 발생한다. BSE 이미징은 시료의 화학적 특성을 구분할 수 있는 조성대비를 제공한다. 집속이온빔장치(FIB)는 전계방사형 주사전자현미경(FESEM)과 결합할 수 있으므로 이중빔 체계(FIB-FESEM)가 구현된다. 갈륨(Ga) 이온빔으로 10~100 nm 두께로 시료를 절삭할 수 있으므로 FIB-FESEM은 플라스틱으로 포매된 블록의 면을 z축 고해상도를 유지하며 연속적으로 이미징할 수 있다. BSE이미지의 대비를 반전시키면 투과전자현미경의 이미지와 유사하다. 연속블록면 이미징의 또 다른 방안으로써 특수한 초박절편기가 FESEM 내부에 장착된 것이 $3View^{(R)}$로 상용화되어 있다. 이로써 플라스틱으로 포매된 시료의 내부 구조를 넓은 면적을 연속적으로 이미징 할 수 있으므로 3차원 재구성도 용이하게 된다. 이러한 FESEM에 기반한 두 가지 방식은 복잡한 생물계의 총체적인 이해를 위하여 세포 및 세포 수준 이하의 구조물 간의 공간적 연관성을 규명하는 데 활용될 수 있다.

The load transfer depth of a ground anchor is the minimum length required to transfer the initial prestressing to the grout column through the bonded part. A thorough understanding of the mechanism of load transfer as well as accurate prediction of the load transfer depth are essential for designing an anchorage that has an adequate factor of safety and satisfies implicit economic criteria. In the current research, experimental and numerical studies were conducted to investigate the load transfer mechanism of ground anchors based on a series of laboratory and field load tests. Optical FBG sensors embedded in the central king cable of a seven-wire strand were successfully employed to monitor the changes in tensile force and its distribution along the tendons. Moreover, results from laboratory and in-situ pullout tests were compared with those from equivalent case studies simulated using the finite difference method in the FLAC 3D program. All the results obtained from the two proposed methods were remarkably consistent with respect to the load increments. They were similar not only in trend but also in magnitude and showed more consistency at higher pullout loading stages, especially the final loading stage. Furthermore, the estimated load transfer depth demonstrated a pronounced dependency on the surrounding ground condition, being shorter in hard ground conditions and longer in weaker ones. Finally, considering the safety factor and cost-effective design, the required bonded length of a ground anchor was formulated in terms of the load transfer depth.

The seismic performance of the ordinary steel reinforced concrete (SRC) columns has no significant improvement compared to the reinforced concrete (RC) columns mainly because I, H or core cross-shaped steel cannot provide sufficient confinement for core concrete. Two improved SRC columns by constructing with new-type shaped steel were put forward on this background, and they were named as enlarging cross-shaped steel and diagonal cross-shaped steel for short. The seismic behavior and carrying capacity of new-type SRC columns have been researched theoretically and experimentally, while the shear behavior remains unclear when the new-type columns are joined onto SRC beams. This paper presents an experimental study to investigate the shear capacity of new-type SRC joints. For this purpose, four new-type and one ordinary SRC joints under low reversed cyclic loading were tested, and the failure patterns, load-displacement hysteretic curves, joint shear deformation and steel strain were also observed. The ultimate shear force of joint specimens was calculated according to the beam-end counterforce, and effects of steel shape, load angel and structural measures on shear capacity of joints were analyzed. The test results indicate that: (1) the new-type SRC joints display shear failure pattern and has higher shear capacity than the ordinary one; (2) the oblique specimens have good bearing capacity if designed reasonably; and (3) the two proposed construction measures have little effect on the shear capacity of SRC joints embedded with diagonal cross-shaped steel. Based on the mechanism observed from the test, the formulas for calculating ultimate shear capacity considering the main factors (steel web, stirrup and axial compression ratio) were derived, and the calculated results agreed well with the experimental and simulated data.

본 논문은 2차원 Discrete Cosine Transform (2D-DCT)의 계산을 새로운 Polynomial 변환을 통하여 1차원 DCT의 합으로 변환하여 계산하는 알고리즘을 개발한다. 기존의 2차원 계산방법인 row-column 으로는 N×M 크기의 2D-DCT에서 3/2NMlog₂(NM)-2NM＋N＋M의 합과 1/2NMlog₂(NM)의 곱셈이 필요한데 비하여 본 논문에서 제시한 알고리즘은 3/2NMlog₂M＋NMlog₂N-M-N/2＋2의 합과 1/2NMlog₂M의 곱셈 수를 필요로 한다. 또한 기존의 polynomial 변환에 의한 2D DCT는 Euler 공식을 적용하였기 때문에 복소 연산이 필요하지만 본 논문에서 제시한 polynomial 변환은 DCT의 modular 규칙을 이용하여 2D DCT를 ID DCT의 합으로 직접 변환하므로 복소 연산이 필요하지 않다.

This study was performed to clarify the morphological structures of the epithelia of the renal papilla, renal pelvis and ureter of the sheep (Ovis aries L.) through the light and scanning electron microscopes, Tissue specimens were taken from the renal papilla (common renal papilla and peripelvic column) and the renal pelvis (pelvis proper and pelvic pouch) of the kidney and the ureter. For the light microscopy, tissue blocks were fixed in 10 % neutral buffered formalin and embedded in paraffin wax, serially sectioned at a thickness of $6{\mu}m$. These sections were stained with hematoxylin-eosin and periodic acid-Schiff reaction. For the scanning electron microscopy, tissue blocks were prefixed in 1% glutaral-dehyde-1.5% paraformaldehyde solution and postfixed in 1% osmium tetroxide solution, dehydrated in graded alcohol, transferred to isoamyl acetate, and then dried by the critical point dryer (Polaron E 3000). These dried tissues were coated with gold and observed with a scanning electron microscope (JSM-35C), The results were as follows: The apex of the common renal papilla was lined with simple columnar epithelium having many microvilli on its luminal surface. Lateral portion of the papilla was lined with stratified epithelium $2{\sim}3$ layers thick, and its superficial cells were microvillar cells having many microvilli. The epithelium lining the peripelvic column was $1{\sim}2$ layers thick. The superficial layer was made of the microvillar cells, but a few microplica cells were appeared in the region near the pelvic pouch. The epithelium of the pelvic pouch was $1{\sim}2$ layered transitional type, and its superficial cells were microplica cells. The epithelia of the pelvis proper and ureter were $4{\sim}6$ layered transitional type, and their superficial cells were typical facet cells existing many round depressions and ridges of cell membranes of the luminal side.
