The stability behaviour of symmetrically laminated rectangular composite plates with loaded ends clamped and unloaded edges simply-supported, and subjected to uniform in-plane compression is investigated. A numerical and experimental investigation is presented in this contribution. The stacking sequence of the laminated glass/epoxy composite plates is symmetric about the middle surface and consists of 8-ply [0, 90, +45, -45]s lamination. Numerical predictions were obtained through the use of the finite element method. The above plates were modelled with 8-noded isoparametric layered shell elements. The effect of the input parameters such as the degree and forms of prescribed initial imperfection and the incremental step size required for incremental loading, on the convergence of the solution is thoroughly examined. Experimental results are presented for 10 test panels. All test panels were made from glass/epoxy unidirectional prepregs and have aspect ratio of 5.088. The laminate thicknesses were found to vary from 1.054 mm to 1.066 mm. Comparison of experimental data with predicted results show good correlation and give confidence in the finite element model.

An OS-CFAR (Ordered Statistics CFAR) based on a sorting algorithm is useful for automotive radar systems in a multi-target situation. However, while the typical cell-averaging CFAR has low computational complexity, the OS-CFAR has much higher computation effort. In this paper, we design the new OS-CFAR architecture with a low computational effort. In the proposed method, since one time sorting processing is performed for the decision of the CFAR threshold, the whole processing effort can be reduced. When the fast sorting technique is employed, the computing time of the proposed OS-CFAR is always much shorter compared with typical OS-CFAR method regardless of the data size. We also present the processing result of proposed architecture using the real radar data.

Given operators X and Y acting on a Hilbert space $\mathcal{H}$, an interpolating operator is a bounded operator A such that AX = Y. In this article, the following is proved: Let $\mathcal{L}$ be a subspace lattice on $\mathcal{H}$ and let X and Y be operators acting on a Hilbert space H. Let P be the projection onto the $\overline{rangeX}$. If PE = EP for each E ${\in}$ $\mathcal{L}$, then the following are equivalent: (1) sup ${{\frac{{\parallel}E^{\perp}Yf{\parallel}}{{\parallel}E^{\perp}Xf{\parallel}}}:f{\in}\mathcal{H},\;E{\in}\mathcal{L}}$ < ${\infty},\;\overline{rangeY}\;{\subset}\;\overline{rangeX}$, and there is a bounded operator T acting on $\mathcal{H}$ such that < Xf, Tg >=< Yf, Xg >, < Tf, Tg >=< Yf, Yg > for all f and gin $\mathcal{H}$ and $T^*h$ = 0 for h ${\in}\;{\overline{rangeX}}^{\perp}$. (2) There is a normal operator A in AlgL such that AX = Y and Ag = 0 for all g in range ${\overline{rangeX}}^{\perp}$.

WPM(Wavelet Packet Modulation) is multicarrier system which is suitable for high speed transmission. The main advantage of using the WPM system is the fact that the flexible system effectively can be realized by the combination of filter coefficient. On the other hand, the major problem of multicarrier system is known to be the high PAPR. In this paper we propose WPM system that has a minimum PAPR by using filter coefficient adjustment method. We first derive the filter coefficient equation and then select the coefficient that has a minimum PAPR. we conduct WPM system by using a selected coefficient and we demonstrate the system performance by using computer simulation.

Objective : The purpose of this study is to suggest medical approach to musculoskeletal system disorders using the decoction of Sanghan-Geumgwe. We studied cases of Ling-Gui-Gan-Zao-Tang prescribed patients to evaluate the clinical efficacy in musculoskeletal system disorders Method : We devised medical approach of Sanghan-Geumgwe in musculoskeletal disorders as follows. First, we chose ryeon-je(攣劑) and soo-je(水劑) herb medicine, commonly used in musculoskeletal disorders. In the selected herb group, we designated ryeon-je(攣劑) to be first key herbs, Soo-Je(水劑) as the second key herb, and other herb groups as third key herb. In this sequential selection and exclusion process, herbs were chosen based upon yak-neung-hyo-seon (藥能效選). Combination of those selected herbs drew pre-prescription group, finally prescription were made by the prescription criteria. Results : Based on the medical approach of decoctions of Sanghan-Geumgwe, we chose Ling-Gui-Gan-Zao-Tang to treat many kinds of musculoskeletal system disorders. And we achieved higher results on treatment for musculoskeletal system disorders. Conclusions : The medical approch using the decoctions of Sanghan-Geumgwe is very useful in choosing accurate prescriptions for patients with musculoskeletal system disorders in clinic.

In order to improve the vibration characteristics of mid sized passenger car automatic transmission at idle experimental and theoretical studies have been carried out. Idle shake in "D" range occurs by various reasons such as characteristics of body bending resonance between subsystems and engine mounts etc. Using full vehicle finite element analyses and modal tests we introduce the way to reduce the idle shake in the early design stage. It shows that the exciting forces are the 2nd order torque and force of engine. A powertrain system modes in "D" range are entirely effected by the additional boundary conditions of drive line. As a result the frequencies of subsystems are arranged to be lined up at the idle frequency range in order to avoid the resonances with subsystems To reduce the idle shake mounts of radiator are tuned to act as a dynamic damper to 1st bending frequency of the body. In addition a hydraulic mount which is optimized by Phase Shift Method is applied to the rear engine mount.e rear engine mount.

Electric propulsion motors are operated from a variable frequency drive, which supplies power to motors at a frequency appropriate to the desired speed. The objective of this study was to evaluate power converters for shipboard applications and to recommend converters that meet lower harmonic distortion levels and torque ripples. Two systems were studied in detail : Cyclo-converters and PWM-converters. Cyclo-converters are the obvious choice where size, weight and efficiency are the most critical issues. However they have a disadvantage in power factor and they produce severe torque ripples in the motor which makes them unacceptable without special systems. PWM-converters produces better motor current waveform and eliminates common mode voltage issues at the motor, but suffers a multiple stages of power conversion and the isolating transformer. Results of this case study show that PWM-converters are more advanced and efficient drives for induction motor of electric propulsion ship.

Natural biopolymers such as collagen and fibrin have been widely used in bone regenerative applications. Despite the frequent use, their comparative biological propertiesis are largely unknown. In a previous study, we found the superiority of fibrin to collagen in the adsorption of serum proteins and the proliferation and differentiation of cultured osteoblasts. In this study, we used an in vivo model to evaluate how effectively fibrin supports bone regeneration, as compared with collagen. Collagen and fibrin were placed in critical size defects made on rat calvarial bones. Compared with collagen, fibrin supported substantially more new bone tissue formation, which was confirmed by micro-CT measurement and histological analyses. The cells in the regenerative tissues of the fibrin-filled defects were immunostained strongly for Runx2, while collagen-placed defects were stained weakly. These in vivo results demonstrate that fibrin is superior to collagen in supporting bone regeneration.

The most important requirement for the automotive radars is the simultaneous target range and velocity measurement under environment of multi-target, clutters, multi-path, and so on. If the many vehicles with 77GHz FMCW(Frequency Modulation Continuous Wave) radar system are in the near area we should consider the interference signals occurred by other radar systems because these signals reduce exact detection of range and velocity. In this paper, we propose the interference cancellation method, which each vehicle radar transmits chirp trains with the different frequency sweep shapes. The proposed method is applied into the various applications such as an intelligent vehicle, Robot, and UGV(Unmanned Ground Vehicle).
