In this study, H-type beta zeolites (BEA) having various metals were used as the adsorbent for the removal of sulfur containing odorants. The different adsorbents containing single or bimetals were utilized to investigate the performance in the individual adsorption of TBM and THT odorants or in the competitive adsorption between them by using a continuous adsorptive bed system. The result shows that the pure H-type BEA zeolite exhibited the highest adsorption capacity for TBM compound, but the higher amount of THT was removed and adsorbed on a HBEA adsorbent having Fe, Pd metal and ZnO oxide. In the case of bimetal containing adsorbents, Cu-Zn/HBEA and Fe-Mo/HBEA showed a higher adsorption capacity for TBM.

Aperture-coupled circular polarization microstrip array antenna is proposed in this paper. The proposed antenna is useful for 2.4GHz ISM band and its aperture shape is a modified H-slot. The optimal design parameters for the antenna structure is found by using electromagnetic analysis tool HFSS repeatedly. The HFSS simulation results, such as return loss, axial ratio, radiation pattern and gain of the proposed array antenna are compared with results of the single antenna. It is able to verify that the proposed array antenna is valuable enough to be used in various applications as well as 2.4GHz ISM band.

In this study, the experimental bending behaviors of an H-secti on-steel-beam-attached high-strength steel plate or steel beam were analyzed. Its structural performance was verified by comparing the results of the experiment and the analysis that were conducted. In fabricating an unprestressed composite beam using two members that have different strengths, the generated slip on the joint in proport problem because of the redistribution of force caused by the lose state of the joint. Therefore, when fabricating composite beams, it is important to load them with prestressed forces. Based on the results of the experiment that was conducted, the prestressed composite-steel-beam-attached steel plate or beam has a higher bending resistance and load-carrying capacit

A moment connection of H beam-to-rectangular tube column with external stiffeners was proposed. A formula to predict the ultimate strength of the connection was derived based on the yield line mechanism. Experimental investigation was performed to determine the applicability of the connection type and the strength formula. The ultimate strengths computed by the formula agreed well with the experimental values.

Generally, PSC girder bridge uses total gross cross section to resist applied loads unlike reinforced concrete member. Also, it is used as short and middle span (less than 30 m) bridges due to advantages such as ease of design and construction, reduction of cost, and convenience of maintenance. But, due to recent increased public interests for environmental friendly and appearance appealing bridges all over the world, the demands for longer span bridges have been continuously increasing. This trend is shown not only in ordinary long span bridge types such as cable supported bridges but also in PSC girder bridges. In order to meet the increasing demands for new type of long span bridges, PSC hollow box girder with H-type steel as compression reinforcements is developed for bridge with a single span of more than 50 m. The developed PSC girder applies compressive prestressing at H-type compression reinforcements using unbonded PS tendon. The purpose of compressive prestressing is to recover plastic displacement of PSC girder after long term service by releasing the prestressing. The static test composed of 4 different stages in 3-point bending test is performed to verify safety of the bridge. First stage loading is applied until tensile cracks form. Then in second stage, the load is removed and the girder is unloaded. In third stage, after removal of loading, recovery of remaining plastic deformation is verified as the compressive prestressing is removed at H-type reinforcements. Then, in fourth stage, loading is continued until the girder fails. The experimental results showed that the first crack occurs at 1,615 kN with a corresponding displacement of 187.0 mm. The introduction of the additional compressive stress in the lower part of the girder from the removal of unbonded compressive prestressing of the H-type steel showed a capacity improvement of about 60% (7.7 mm) recovery of the residual deformation (18.7 mm) that occurred from load increase. By using prestressed H-type steel as compression reinforcements in the upper part of cross section, repair and rehabilitation of PSC girders are relatively easy, and the cost of maintenance is expected to decrease.

The postbeam joint connection of the existing steel structure moment flexible frame system did not produce sufficient seismic resistance during the earthquakes in Northridge and Kobe, and it sustained brittle fracturing on the joint connection. This study was performed to execute the high-tensile bolt share connection of H-beams web and the full-scale experiment as a parameter of the existing reinforcement of H-flange rib, by making the shape of the existing joint connection. This experiment was performed to determine the extent of the decrease of the number of high-tensile bolts and how to improve workability of the two-phase shear connection of web beam. In addition, this study was performed to enhance the seismic resistant capacity through the enforcement of rib plates. As a result of the experiment of two-phase shear connection of H-beam web and of joint connection to be reinforced by rib plates, the results of this study showed that the initial stiffness, energy-dissipation capacity, and rotational capacity of plasticity was higher than the existing joint connection. As to the rate of increasing the strength and deformation capacity, there were differences between the tension side and compression side because of the position of shear tap. However, as a whole, they have shown excellent seismic resistant capacity. Also, all the test subjects exceeded 4% (rate of delamination), about 0.029 rad (total plastic capacity), and about 130% (maximum strength of joint connection) of fully plastic moment for the original section. Accordingly, this study was considered as it would be available in the design more than the intermediate-level of moment flexible frame.

Barrier VII program is normally used for the design of flexible barrier, but if modelled properly it can be used for the analysis of vehicle impact to small sign posts. In this paper sign post is shown to be modelled as flexible barrier by combining beam and column elements at each beam node. Simulations with the Barrier VII program have been made for 7 impact cases composed of sign posts of circular and H section with rigidly connected support and breakaway support system. The impact speed used for the simulation ranged from 30km/h to 110km/h. The study shows that in the vehicle impacts to a circular sign post with high speed, the large deflection and high inertia force causes the sign plate to hit the windshield leading to a hazard to the occupants. It is also shown that impact to H section post results in small deflection of the post and abrupt velocity change and high deceleration of the impact vehicle causing severe damage to both the vehicle and occupants. Simulation study also shows that breakaway support system eliminates the potential danger of the vehicle impact to the rigidly connected small sign posts by reducing deflection of the post, abrupt change in velocity and deceleration level.

The composite structural system with reinforced concrete column and steel beam has some advantages in the structural efficiency by complementing the shortcomings between the two systems. The system, however, has also a lot of problems in earthquake-proof capacity and construction process because it is wet method of construction. So, this paper proposed PCS(Precast Concrete Column and Steel Beam) structural system with dry method of construction. Purpose of this study is to enhance merit and control failure mechanism by installing Dog-Bone on H-beam.

본 연구에서는 고주파 유도가열을 위한 전원장치에 사용되는 인버터 시스템의 대용량, 고조파화를 실현하기 위한 고주파화 기술을 제안하였다. 부한 공진 인버터는 H형 전-브리지(Full-Bridge)로 구성하고 각 암당 IBGT를 2병렬로 조합하여 구성하고 부하는 직병열 공진회로로 구성한다. 스위칭 동작은 8개의 IGBT중 각 ARM당 2개씩 순차 제어하여 고속 대용량의 고주파 전력을 출력시킨다. 또한 스위칭은 스위치 턴온·오프시에 스위칭 손실을 줄이기 위해 ZVS(Zero-Voltage Switching) 기법을 도입한다. 제어는 고정주파수 PWM(Pulse Width Modulation) 제어를 하여 전력변환 효율을 극대화한다.
