To achieve appropriate stresses, two new rectangular elements are presented in this study. For reaching this aim, a complementary energy functional is used within an element for the analysis of plane problems. In this energy form, the Airy stress function will be used as a functional variable. Besides, some basic analytical solutions are found for the stress functions. These trial functions are matched with each element number of degrees of freedom, which leads to a number of equations with the anonymous constants. Subsequently, according to the principle of minimum complementary energy, the unknown constants can be expressed in terms of displacements. This system can be rewritten in terms of the nodal displacement. In this way, two new hybrid-rectangular triangular elements are formulated, which have 16 and 40 degrees of freedom. To validate the outcomes, extensive numerical studies are performed. All findings clearly demonstrate accuracies of structural displacements, as well as, stresses.

Advanced tactile sensors are receiving significant attention in various industries such as extended reality, electronic skin, organic user interfaces, and robotics. The capabilities of advanced tactile sensors require a variety of functions, including position sensing, pressure sensing, and material recognition. Moreover, they should comsume less power and be bio-friendly with human contact. Recently, a tactile sensor based on the triboelectrification effect was developed. Triboelectric tactile sensors have the advantages of wide material availability, simple structure, and low manufacturing cost. Because they generate electricity by contact, they have low power consumption compared to conventional tactile sensors such as capacitive and piezoresistive. Furthermore, they have the ability to recognize the contact material as well as execute position and pressure sensing functions using the triboelectrification effect. The aim of this study is to introduce the progress of research on triboelectrification-based tactile sensors with various functions such as position sensing, pressure sensing and contact material recognition.

In this paper, seismic energy response of inelastic steel structures under earthquake excitations is investigated. For this purpose, a numerical procedure based on nonlinear dynamic analysis is developed by considering material, geometric and connection nonlinearities. Material nonlinearity is modeled by the inversion of Ramberg-Osgood equation. Nonlinearity caused by the interaction between the axial force and bending moment is also defined considering stability functions, while the geometric nonlinearity caused by axial forces is described using geometric stiffness matrix. Cyclic behaviour of steel connections is taken into account by employing independent hardening model. Dynamic equation of motion is solved by Newmark's constant acceleration method in the time history domain. Energy response analysis of space frames is performed by using this proposed numerical method. Finally, for the first time, the distribution of the different energy types versus time at the duration of the earthquake ground motion is obtained where in addition error analysis for the numerical solutions is carried out and plotted depending on the relative error calculated as a function of energy balance versus time.

단백질-리간드 결합 예측은 새로운 신약 선도 물질을 발견하고 최적화 하는데 있어서 중요한 도구로 널리 사용되고 있다. 결합의 정확도는 일반적으로 각 결합 계산에서 사용되는 평가 함수(scoring function)에 따라 결정된다. 평가 함수는 그 함수가 가지고 있는 기력 가정에 따라 force-field based, empirical, knowledge-based의 세 가지로 분류할 수 있다. 이 중에서 force-field based 함수는 물리적인 상호작용을 가장 구체적으로 기술한다. 그러나 현재 제시된 대부분의 force-field based 함수들은 분산력과 정전기적인 힘 등의 에너지만을 고려할 뿐 엔트로피의 영향을 포함하지 않는 단점을 가지고 있다. 본 논문에서는 force-field based 평가 함수를 이용하는 경우 기존의 도킹 프로그램이 생성해 내는 구조 정보를 활용하여, 엔트로피를 고려할 수 있는 방법을 제시한다. 또한 이 방법을 DOCK 평가 함수에 적용시켰을 때 decoy discrimination에서 향상된 결과를 얻어낼 수 있음을 보였다. 이는 더 정확한 도킹 계산이 가능함을 의미한다.

Many papers have recently been presented to develop energy functions for power systems. However, earlier studies adopted case-by-case approaches, which failed to give a general approach to deal with various kinds of generator models. In this paper, two useful theorems are developed regarding the integral relationships of the generator power versus its phasor current and voltage. By using the proposed theorems, an exact energy conservation law can be derived from the complex integral. The proposed energy conservation law, which is free of the generator model, can be utilized to develop energy functions for various kinds of generator models including the speed governors and exciters. An illustrative example is given for a multimachine system with the Eq' model of generator. This thesis also shows a possibility of more accurate and fast stability analysis by using the proposed Energy Conservation Law.

For stability analysis of stifened rectangular thin plates with various boundary conditions, Ritz method is presented. An energy method is especially useful in those cases where a rigorous solution of the diferential eqution is unknown or where we have a plate reinforced by stiffeners and it is required to find only an approximate value of the critical load. The strain energy due to the plate bending and the work done by the in-plane forces are taken into account in order to apply the principle of the minimum potential energy. The buckling mode shapes of flexural beams with various boundary conditions are derived, and shape functions consistent with the given boundary conditions in the two orthogonal directions are chosen from those displacement functions of beams. The matrix equations for stability of stiffened rectangular thin plates are determined from the stationary condition of the total potential energy. Numerical example for stability behaviors of horizontally and vertically stiffened plates subjected to uniform compression, bending and shear loadings are presented and the obtained results are compared with other researchers' results.

This paper presents an efficient evaluation method on the role of new energy storage systems, especially the secondary Battery Energy Storage (BES) systems, in the case where they are interconnected with the power distribution systems. It is important to perform the economic evaluation for the new energy storage systems in a synthetical and quantitative manner, because they are very costly in the early stage of their development and commercialization. In this paper, the multiple functions of BES systems, which are operated at distribution systems, such as load levelling, effective utilization of power distribution systems and uninterruptible power supply at the emergency conditions are classified and analyzed. And then the quantitative evaluation methods of the multiple functions for BES systems are proposed using the mathematical modelling.
