Two orthogonal joint sets develop well only in sandstone beds in the sandstone-mudstone sequences of Gumi and Dasa outcrops within Cretaceous Gyeongsang Basin. And various joint data are similar in the beds of the same thickness in both outcrops, meaning that the joint sets were homogeneously produced by extensional deformation in the same regional stress field. Most of joints in the sandstone beds are orthogonal to, and confined by bed boundaries, which are believed to be formed by hydrofracturing during consolidation after burial. Two orthogonal joint sets are considered to be almost coeval on the basis of mutual abutting relationship which makes up fracture grid-lock and a product of rapid switching of ${\sigma}_2$ and ${\sigma}_3$ axes with constant ${\sigma}_1$ direction oriented to vertical. The joint sets in the sandstone beds show planar surfaces, parallel orientations and regular spacing, with joint spacing linearly proportional to bed thickness. The spacing distributions of the joints seem to correspond to log-normal to almost normal distribution in most of the beds. But multilayer joints do not display regular spacing and dominant size. Either joint set in this study is characterized by a high level of joint density and a saturated spacing distribution as indicated by the mode/mean ratio values and the Cv(coefficient of variance) values. Joint aperture tends to increase with the vertical length of the joints controlled by bed thickness.

The brazing of Al to Al using Al-Si alloy filler metal was performed under different bonding conditions such as ratio of lap length to plate thickness, surface roughness and joint clearance of the lap joint. The adopted thickness of the base metal in this experiments were two kinds of 4mm and 7mm which were most commonly used in various field. Influence of several bonding conditions of Al/Al joint was quantitavely evaluated by bonding strength test, and microstructural analysis at the interlayer were performed by optical microscope. From above experiments, the optimum bonding conditions of the brazing bonding of Al/Al using Al-Si alloy filler metal was determined. The major results obtained are as follows. 1) The fracture occurs at brazed joint in the conditions of that the ratio of lap length to plate thickness is less than 2 in case of 7mm plate thickness. 2) The ratio of lap length to plate thickness which the fracture occurs at base metal is decreased with the decreasing of the plate thickness. 3) The joint strength is not affected by the surface roughness and joint clearance of the brazed part. 4) The heat-treatment of the brazed joint contribute to eliminate the boundary between the base metal and filler metal. However, the joint strength is not affected by the heat-treatment.

This study is to estimate the joint torques without torque sensor using the EMG (Electromyogram) signal of agonist/antagonist muscle with Neural Network Back Propagation Algorithm during the elbow motion. Command Signal can be guessed by EMG signal. But it cannot calculate the joint torque. There are many kinds of field utilizing Back Propagation Learning Method. It is generally used as a virtual sensor estimated physical information in the system functioning through the sensor. In this study applied the algorithm to obtain the virtual senor values estimated joint torque. During various elbow movement (Biceps isometric contraction, Biceps/Triceps Concentric Contraction (isotonic), Biceps/Triceps Concentric Contraction/Eccentric Contraction (isokinetic)), exact joint torque was measured by KINCOM equipment. It is input to the (BP)algorithm with EMG signal simultaneously and have trained in a variety of situations. As a result, Only using the EMG sensor, this study distinguished a variety of elbow motion and verified a virtual torque value which is approximately(about 90%) the same as joint torque measured by KINCOM equipment.

We joined 19-multifilamentary (Bi, Pb)$_2$Sr$_2$Ca$_2$Cu$_3$O$_{x}$ Superconducting tapes and fabricated double-pancake coils by using resistive- and superconducting-joint methods. The joint resistance of the coils were characterized by the field decay technique and standard four-probe method. It was evaluated that joint resistance was 3.21$\times$10$^{-11}$ $\Omega$ in the superconducting-joint coil, which is approximately 4 orders of magnitude smaller than that in the resistive-joint coil (107$\times$10$^{-9}$ $\Omega$). The low value of joint resistance obtained by superconducting-joint is expected to be suitable for the practical applications in the persistent current mode.e.

Joint roughness is combination of primary and secondary roughness. Ordinarily primary roughness is a geostatistical part of a joint surface that has a periodic nature but secondary roughness or unevenness is a statistical part of that which have a random nature. Using roughness generating algorithms is a useful method for evaluation of joint roughness. In this paper after determining geostatistical parameters of the joint profile, were presented two roughness generating algorithms using Mount-Carlo method for evaluation of primary (GJRGAP) and secondary (GJRGAS) roughness. These based on geostatistical parameters (range and sill) and statistical parameters (standard deviation of asperities height, SDH, and standard deviation of asperities angle, SDA) for generation two-dimensional joint roughness profiles. In this study different geostatistical regions were defined depending on the range and SDH. As SDH increases, the height of the generated asperities increases and asperities become sharper and at a specific range (a specific curve) relation between SDH and SDA is linear. As the range in GJRGAP becomes larger (the base of the asperities) the shape of asperities becomes flatter. The results illustrate that joint profiles have larger SDA with increase of SDH and decrease of range. Consequencely increase of SDA leads to joint roughness parameters such Z2, Z3 and RP increases. The results showed that secondary roughness or unevenness has a great influence on roughness values. In general, it can be concluded that the shape and size of asperities are appropriate parameters to approach the field scale from the laboratory scale.

In this paper, we propose an algorithm that jointly estimates the location and velocity of a near-field moving target in a pulse radar system. The proposed algorithm estimates the location and velocity corresponding to the outcome of orthogonal matching pursuit (OMP) in a 4-dimensional (4D) location-velocity space. To address the high computational complexity of 4D parameter joint estimation, we propose an algorithm that iteratively estimates the target's 2D location and velocity sequentially. Through simulations, we analyze the estimation performance and verify the computational efficiency of the proposed algorithm.

The ceramic has such high qualities as light weight, abrasion resistance, heat resistance compared with metal, but since it is breakable, it can't be used as structural material and it is desirable to joining metal which is full of toughness, but, according as the ceramic/metal joint is executed at high temperature, the joint residual stress develops near the joint sides in the process of cooling the high temperature down to the suitable temperature due to difference of the thermal expansion coefficient between ceramic and metal, and the joint residualstress lowers the fracture strength. In this study, to ensure security and improvement of bending strength, 1 studies on see distribution shape of residual stress according to high thermal cycle, and the influnence of theraml cycle and distribution shape of residual stess on joint-strength.

Carbonation in RC (reinforced concrete) structure is considered as one of the most critical deteriorations in urban cities. Although RC column has one mix condition, carbonation depth is measured spatially differently due to its various environmental and internal conditions such as sound, cracked, and joint concrete. In this paper, field investigation was performed for 27 RC columns subjected to carbonation for eighteen years. Through this investigation, carbonation distribution in sound, cracked, and joint concrete were derived with crack mappings. Considering each related area and calculated PDF (probability of durability failure) of sound, cracked, and joint concrete through Monte Carlo Simulation (MCS), repairing timings for RC columns are derived based on several IPDF (intended probability of durability failure) of 1, 3, and 5%. The technique of equivalent probability including carbonation behaviors which are obtained from different conditions can provide the reasonable repairing strategy and the priority order for repairing in a given traffic service area.
