The earthquake input is required when the soil-structure interaction (SSI) analysis is performed by the direct finite element method. In this paper, the earthquake is considered as the obliquely incident plane body wave arising from the truncated linearly elastic layered half space. An earthquake input method is developed for the time-domain three-dimensional SSI analysis. It consists of a new site response analysis method for free field and the viscous-spring artificial boundary condition for scattered field. The proposed earthquake input method can be implemented in the process of building finite element model of commercial software. It can result in the highly accurate solution by using a relatively small SSI model. The initial condition is considered for the nonlinear SSI analysis. The Daikai subway station is analyzed as an example. The effectiveness of the proposed earthquake input method is verified. The effect of the obliquely incident earthquake is studied.

The purpose of this paper is to evaluate the input methods of the numeric keypads that are widely used in various types of consumer and industrial electronic products. Three methods to enter numerals using keypads were compared: (1) Machine Intelligence, (2) + 100 key, and (3) Enter key input methods. Experiments were conducted to compare these three input methods for the channel selection of TV. Experimental prototypes which simulate TV user interfaces were developed using $RAPID^{TM}$ for usability testings. In the experiment, data on subject performance such as completion time, operational errors, and user interaction were collected through auto-logging method and video recording. After each test session, subjective preference was also asked using a questionnaire. In order to analyze the type of operation errors and the error causation, operation sequences were analyzed from the collected data. The Enter key input method showed better performance than other input methods. Based on these results. we can conclude that the input method using numeric keypads should be compatible with generic number counting(to input ch 7, it would be better to input 7 directly than to input 07 or 007) and should switch the channel as quickly as possible. This conclusion can be applied to the design of user interfaces which require numeral inputs.

지상파 DMB에서는 양방�� 데이터 서비스를 위하여 MPEG-4 BIFS 규격을 사용하고 있다. BIFS는 콘텐츠의 장면을 구성하는 AV, 이미지, 그래픽, 텍스트 등의 다양한 멀티미디어 객체를 장면상에 표현하고, 사용자로부터 입력을 받아 표현된 객체를 조작하도록 하는 것이 가능하다. 그러나 BIFS가 다양한 형태의 입력장치를 갖는 멀티미디어 시스템에 부합되도록 설계되었지만, 오늘날과 같이 제한적 입력장치를 갖는 휴대 단말에 대한 고려가 결여되어 있다. 문제는 DMB 단말들이 제한적 입력을 가질 수밖에 없기 때문에 사용자가 양방향 데이터 콘텐츠를 조작하는 방법이 일관적이지 못하다는 것이다. 본 논문에서는 이러한 문제를 해결하기 위하여 콘텐츠 제공자와 사용자간의 통일되고 효율적인 콘텐츠 조작을 위해 현재의 BIFS 규격에 KeyNavigator 노드를 추가로 정의하였다. KeyNavigator 노드는 BIFS 콘텐츠에서 휴대 단말의 방향키를 이용하여 BIFS 객체간의 이동이나 BIFS 객체를 선택하는 방법을 제공한다. KeyNavigator 노드를 사용함으로써 BIFS 콘텐츠 제공자는 의도하는 바에 따라 콘텐츠를 저작할 수 있고 휴대 단말 사용자에게도 통일되고 효율적인 BIFS 콘텐츠 제어 방법을 제시하는 우수한 효과가 있다.

This paper takes a half-through steel truss arch bridge as an example. A seismic analysis is conducted with nonlinear finite element method. Contrast models are established to discuss the effect of simplified method for main girder on the accuracy of the result. The influence of seismic wave direction and wave-passage on seismic behaviors are analysed as well as the superstructure and arch ring interaction which is mostly related with the supported bearings and wind resistant springs. In the end, the application of cable-sliding aseismic devices is discussed to put forward a layout principle. The main conclusions include: (1) The seismic response isn't too distinctive with the simplified method of main girder. Generally speaking, the grillage method is recommended. (2) Under seismic input from different directions, arch foot is usually the mostly dangerous section. (3) Vertical wave input and horizontal wave-passage greatly influence the seismic responses of arch ring, significantly increasing that of midspan. (4) The superstructure interaction has an obvious impact on the seismic performance. Half-through arch bridges with long spandrel columns fixed has a less response than those with short ones fixed. And a large stiffness of wind resistant spring makes the the seismic responses of arch ring larger. (5) A good isolation effectiveness for half-through arch bridge can be achieved by a reasonable arrangement of CSFABs.

Interactive media is a method of communication in which the output from the media comes from the input of the users. The interactive media lets the user go back with the media. Interactive media works with the user's participation. The media still has the same purpose but the user's input adds the interaction and brings interesting features to the system for a better enjoyment. We need a digital content using a dynamic motion and gesture of the mobile device. We made an authoring tool for content producers to easily create interactive content. We have tried to take advantage of the interaction by using a touch screen and a gravity sensor of the mobile device. This interaction may lead to allow the user to participate in the content, it can be used as a key device to assist in engagement. Furthermore, our authoring tool can be applied to various fields of publishing content.

This study, analyses the seismic response for a rigid massless square foundation resting on a viscoelastic soil layer limited by rigid bedrock. The foundation is subjected either to externally applied forces or to obliquely incident seismic body or surface harmonic seismic waves P, SV and SH. A 3-D frequency domain BEM formulation in conjunction with the thin layer method (TLM) is adapted here for the solution of elastodynamic problems and used for obtained the seismic response. The mathematical approach is based on the method of integral equations in the frequency domain using the formalism of Green's functions (Kausel and Peck 1982) for layered soil, the impedance functions are calculated by the compatibility condition. In this study, The key step is the characterization of the soil-foundation interaction with the input motion matrix. For each frequency the impedance matrix connects the applied forces to the resulting displacement, and the input motion matrix connects the displacement vector of the foundation to amplitudes of the free field motion. This approach has been applied to analyze the effect of soil-structure interaction on the seismic response of the foundation resting on a viscoelastic soil layer limited by rigid bedrock.

Objective: The aim of this study is to give ergonomists the brief summary of the recently published ISO standards on human-system interaction and tips for application of the standards. Background: Standard developers did hard work on developing a standard in a concise manner. But most of standards are often bulky in volume. Readers of the standards are difficult to catch key points from the voluminous contents of standards and intermingle among them. Method: Focused on newly developed display/control technology, this study reviewed the 14 ISO standards on human-system interaction published during 2008-2013 and summarized key points from them. Results: Schematic diagrams and tables concisely illustrated the processes, procedures, dimensions, or best practices recommended by the standards concerning conception, design, and usability testing for consumer products. Conclusion: The standards provided the minimum level of requirements on design and evaluation on the physical input devices, electronic displays, and control interfaces based on the current state of technology. But the minimum requirements specified in the standards nowadays become mandatory ergonomic requirements in global trade world. Application: Ergonomists can take a quick and broad view on international standardization activities on newly developed display/control technology from this summary study.

This study analyses the seismic response of a three-dimensional (3-D) rigid massless square foundation resting or embedded in a viscoelastic soil limited by rigid bedrock. The foundation is subjected to harmonic oblique seismic waves P, SV, SH and R. The key step is the characterization of the soil-foundation interaction by computing the impedance matrix and the input motion matrix. A 3-D frequency boundary element method (BEM) in conjunction with the thin layer method (TLM) is adapted for the seismic analysis of the foundation. The dynamic response of the rigid foundation is solved from the wave equations by taking into account the soil-foundation interaction. The solution is formulated using the frequency BEM with the Green's function obtained from the TLM. This approach has been applied to analyze the effect of soilstructure interaction on the seismic response of the foundation as a function of the kind of incident waves, the angles of incident waves, the wave's frequencies and the embedding of foundation. The parametric results show that the non-vertical incident waves, the embedment of foundation, and the wave's frequencies have important impact on the dynamic response of rigid foundations.
