The optimun laminated composition of the stiffened composite plates is studied from the view point of buckling strength. The finite element method is applied to the buckling analysis of the composite plates taking into account the effect of shear deformation through the plate thickness. The stiffened plate model is discretized using plate thickness and symmetrically stacked. Parametric study is carried out for the selection of the optimum laminate structure; optimum fiber angle sequence through the thickness. Laminate structure of $[-45^{\circ}/45^{\circ}/90^{\circ}/0^{\circ}]$, is found to give the best buckling strength. For the case of that layer number is more than eight, best result is obtained when layers of the same fiber angle are put together, leaving the laminate has the same fiber angle sequence as a whole.

In the present experimental study, the high performance hybrid fiber reinforced concrete (HPHFRC) is prepared using the Modified Andreasen and Andersen (A&A) particle packing model. Total of 16 trial mixes of HPHFRC with Indian standard sand (SS) and natural river sand (NS) are prepared to achieve the selection criteria (flow percent>150 and compressive strength>80 MPa). Based on the flow percent and compressive strength criteria, the selected mixes evaluated to study the effect of usage of natural river sand (NS) and the expensive Indian standard sand (SS) on the mechanical, durability, and microstructure property of designed HPHFRC. It has been found that the Modified A&A model is reliable to design the mix for HPHFRC with excellent mechanical, durability, and microstructure properties. In addition to that, a moderate difference in the mechanical and durability properties of NS contained HPHFRC and SS contained HPHFRC is found. Based on the obtained results of NS contained HPHFRC, it can be concluded that the use of natural river sand (NS) can be successfully adopted for the production of HPHFRC, resulted in a reduction of the production cost without compromising the excellent performance of HPHFRC.

As increasing number of large-size earthquake around Korean peninsula, many interests have been focused to the earthquake strengthening of existing structures. Fiber reinforced plastic composite material is one of strengthening material widely used to increase seismic performance of structures. It should have high stiffness as well as large ductility to provide best strengthening result. Thus selection of stiffener and fiber in composite is of important. In this study, the optimal combination of fiber and stiffener is selected with variety of tensile tests. In order to investigate performance of chosen composite material, several finite element analyses are performed with proposed FRP composite material for existing RC columns. It is discussed that the seismic performance of strengthened columns through the load-displacement relationship. It is shown that the proposed composite material can increase the strength as well as ductility of exiting RC columns.

Adhesive joints are widely used for structural joining applications in various fields and environmental conditions. Polyurethane adhesive is using for LNG carrier with cryogenic temperature condition. Even if similar polyurethane adhesive is used for different substrate, it shows different adhesion properties. Specially, variation of adhesion properties depending on the resin system or fiber is very important factor for selection of adhesive on industrial application. In present study, we got different peel strength according to the different test temperature when different polyurethane adhesive was used for same fiber reinforced composite. The main cause was investigated using by SEM and it was proven that the different adhesion property between glass fiber on composite surface and polyurethane adhesives at cryogenic temperature.

The erbium doped fibre ring laser (EDFL) is modelled using the standard propagation and rate equations of a homogeneous, two-level gain medium. The EDFL numerical simulations provide comparable results with the experimental data. The process of lasing mode competition and mode selection is clearly depicted and explained.

To provide more qualified data service on the HFC(Hybrid-Fiber Coaxial) access network, the channel characteristics of upstream transmission band should be carefully investigated and analysed. It will be easier to do network management if the monitoring system for noise measurement in the network is available, In this paper, noise analysis method and the frequency selection method in the upstream band for duplex transmission are suggested. And, Data aquisition device for the signal measurement Is implemented. With this network monitoring system, field test and the result from the collected data are described.

The effect of braid construction parameters on yarn cross-sectional shape is presented in this paper. The location of the yam within the braid unit cell is quantified by a compaction factor. A range of braided fabrics were produced and optically measured for actual yarn cross-sectional shape. A comparison of the theoretical and experimental values shows good correlation. Design curves can be produced with the developed model to allow selection of appropriate braid process parameter to create yarns with desired cross-sectional geometries.

In order to investigate the relationship between the stiffness and structure of the automotive roof panels, two kinds of glass fiber reinforced plastic(GFRP) roof panels without and with insert material were fabricated by resin transfer molding(RTM) method. The stiffness test was performed at the same condition as it of actual driving. The structural design and material selection for improving the recyclability of GFRP roof panels were also covered.

The cable TV network has delivered downward broadcasting signals from distribution centers to subscribers. Since the traditional coaxial cable has been upgraded by the Hybrid Fiber Coaxial(HFC) cable, the upward channels has expanded broadband services such as Internet. This upward channel is vulnerable to ingress noises. When the noises from the children nodes accumulated in an amplifier exceeds a certain level, that node has to be cut off to prevent the noise propagation. The node selection problem(NSP) is defined to select nodes so that the noise in each node does not exceed the given threshold value and the sum of Profits of selected nodes can be maximized. The NSP has shown to be NP-hard. In this paper, we have proposed heuristics to find the near-optimal solution for NSP. The experimental results show that interval partitioning is better than greedy approach. Our heuristics can be used by the HFC network management system to provide privileged services to the premium subscribers on HFC networks.

Objective: Muscle fiber types, numbers and area are crucial aspects associated with meat production and quality. However, there are few studies of pig muscle fibre traits in terms of the detection power, false discovery rate and confidence interval precision of whole-genome quantitative trait loci (QTL). We had previously performed genome scanning for muscle fibre traits using 183 microsatellites and detected 8 significant QTLs in a White Duroc×Erhualian F₂ population. The confidence intervals of these QTLs ranged between 11 and 127 centimorgan (cM), which contained hundreds of genes and hampered the identification of QTLs. A whole-genome sequence imputation of the population was used for fine mapping in this study. Methods: A whole-genome sequences association study was performed in the F₂ population. Genotyping was performed for 1,020 individuals (19 F₀, 68 F₁, and 933 F₂). The whole-genome variants were imputed and 21,624,800 single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) were identified and examined for associations to 11 longissimus dorsi muscle fiber traits. Results: A total of 3,201 significant SNPs comprising 7 novel QTLs showing associations with the relative area of fiber type I (I_RA), the fiber number per square centimeter (FN) and the total fiber number (TFN). Moreover, one QTL on pig chromosome 14 was found to affect both FN and TFN. Furthermore, four plausible candidate genes associated with FN (kinase non-catalytic C-lobe domain containing [KNDC1]), TFN (KNDC1), and I_RA (solute carrier family 36 member 4, contactin associated protein like 5, and glutamate metabotropic receptor 8) were identified. Conclusion: An efficient and powerful imputation-based association approach was utilized to identify genes potentially associated with muscle fiber traits. These identified genes and SNPs could be explored to improve meat production and quality via marker-assisted selection in pigs.
