  • To estimate optimal tree diameter and height growth function in Pinus thunbergii stands with site index of 12 class, quoted from two linear models of linear transformation(1) and linear transformation (2) and four non-linear models of exponential, Gompertz, Chapman-Richards, and Weibull etc.. Analyzed correlation among the estimated tree diameter and height by these function models, and observed diameter and height growth were compared. In the results of tree diameter and height growth estimation by stand age, non-linear models showed better appropriation than linear model and Chapman-Richards model was most fitted for tree height growth but few, if any, differences among their nonlinear models. Therefore, it is consider to be much more study about non-linear model to estimate tree diameter and height growth in the actual stands hereafter.

  • Due to creep and shrinkage of the concrete core, concrete-filled steel tubular (CFST) arches continue to deform in the long-term under sustained loads. This paper presents analytical investigations of the effects of geometric nonlinearity on the long-term in-plane structural performance and stability of three-pinned CFST circular arches under a sustained uniform radial load. Non-linear long-term analysis is conducted and compared with its linear counterpart. It is found that the linear analysis predicts long-term increases of deformations of the CFST arches, but does not predict any long-term changes of the internal actions. However, non-linear analysis predicts not only more significant long-term increases of deformations, but also significant long-term increases of internal actions under the same sustained load. As a result, a three-pinned CFST arch satisfying the serviceability limit state predicted by the linear analysis may violate the serviceability requirement when its geometric nonlinearity is considered. It is also shown that the geometric nonlinearity greatly reduces the long-term in-plane stability of three-pinned CFST arches under the sustained load. A three-pinned CFST arch satisfying the stability limit state predicted by linear analysis in the long-term may lose its stability because of its geometric nonlinearity. Hence, non-linear analysis is needed for correctly predicting the long-term structural behaviour and stability of three-pinned CFST arches under the sustained load. The non-linear long-term behaviour and stability of three-pinned CFST arches are compared with those of two-pinned counterparts. The linear and non-linear analyses for the long-term behaviour and stability are validated by the finite element method.

  • A BF(breadth-first) linear quadtree as a new data structure for image data is suggested, which enables us to compress the image data efficiently and to make operations of the compressed data easily. It is a list of path names for black nodes as the linear quadtree is. The path name for each black node of a BF linear quadtree is represented as a sequence of path codes from the root node to itself, whereas that of linear quadtree as a sequence of path codes from the root node to itself and fill characters for cut-offed path from it to any n-level node which corresponds to a pixel of an image. The BF linear quadtree provides a more efficent compression ratio than the linear quadtree does, because the former does not require redundant characters, fill characters, for the cut-offed paths. Several operations for image processing can be also implemented on this hierarchical structure efficiently, because it is composed of only the black nodes ad the linear quadtree is . In this paper, algorithms for several operations on the BF linear quadtree are defined and analyzed. Experimental results for forur image data are also given and discussed.

  • It is shown that every almost positive linear mapping h : $\mathcal{A}\rightarrow\mathcal{B}$ of a Banach *-algebra $\mathcal{A}$ to a Banach *-algebra $\mathcal{B}$ is a positive linear operator when h(rx) = rh(x) (r > 1) holds for all $x\in\mathcal{A}$, and that every almost linear mapping h : $\mathcal{A}\rightarrow\mathcal{B}$ of a unital C*-algebra $\mathcal{A}$ to a unital C*-algebra $\mathcal{B}$ is a positive linear operator when h($2^nu*y$) = h($2^nu$)*h(y) holds for all unitaries $u\in \mathcal{A}$, all $y \in \mathcal{A}$, and all n = 0, 1, 2, ..., by using the Hyers-Ulam-Rassias stability of functional equations. Under a more weak condition than the condition as given above, we prove that every almost linear mapping h : $\mathcal{A}\rightarrow\mathcal{B}$ of a unital C*-algebra $\mathcal{A}$ A to a unital C*-algebra $\mathcal{B}$ is a positive linear operator. It is applied to investigate states, center states and center-valued traces.

  • Linearization of the biped dynamic equations and design of linear controller for the linearized equations are studied in this paper. The biped robot with inverted pendulum type trunk, used to stabilize the dynamic balancing of the biped robot during dynamic walking period, is modelled with 14 DOF and simulated. Despite of well defined linear control theories so far, the linear control methods was limited to the applications for a walking robot, because they have been inherently strong nonlinear properties, such as a modeling parameter uncertainties, external forces as noise, inertial and Coriolis terms by three dimensional modeling and so on. To linearize the nonlinear equations of motion of biped robot on MIMO and time varying linear equations of motion, 1st order Taylor series is used to formulate the linear equation. And a 2nd order numerical perturbation method Is used to approximate partial differential equations. Using the linearized equations of motion, a linear controller is designed by pole placement method with feed forward compensation. Using the obtained linearized equations and linear controller, the continuous walking simulation is performed.

  • In this paper we derive some lower bounds on the linear complexity and upper bounds on the 1-error linear complexity over $F_p$ of M-ary Sidel'nikov sequences of period $p^m-1$ when $M\geq3$ and $p\equiv{\pm}1$ mod M. In particular, we exactly compute the 1-error linear complexity of ternary Sidel'nikov sequences when $p^m-1$ and $m\geq4$. Based on these bounds we present the asymptotic behavior of the normalized linear complexity and the normalized 1-error linear complexity with respect to the period.

  • In flat panel display or semiconductor industries, they install the equipments with fine line width and high throughput for fabrication and inspection. The equipments are required to have the linear stage which can position the work-piece with high speed, fine resolution on wide range of motion. In this paper, a precision planar linear XY stage is proposed. The stage has a symmetric planar window configuration and is guided by air-bearings on granite plate. The symmetric planar window configuration makes the stage has robustness against dynamic and thermal disturbances. The air-bearings let the stage move smooth on straight guide bar and flat granite surface. The stage is actuated by linear motor with Halbach magnet array (HMA). HMA generates more confined magnetic flux than conventional array. The linear motors are optimized by using sequential quadratic programming (SQP) with the several constraints that are thermal dissipation, required power, force ripple and so on. The planar linear XY stage with the symmetric planar configuration and the linear motors is implemented and then the performance such as force ripple, resolution and stroke are evaluated.

  • This study compares true stress-true strain curves obtained by tensile tests of various piping materials with bi-linear stress-strain approximation suggested in the JSME Code Case(CC) Draft, a guideline for piping seismic inelastic response analysis. Based on the comparisons, the reliability of the bi-linear approximation is evaluated. It is found that bi-linear stress-strain curve of TP316 stainless steel is in good agreement with its true stress-true strain curve. However, Bi-linear stress-strain curves of TP304 stainless steel and carbon steels determined by the approximation cannot appropriately estimate their stress-strain behavior. Accordingly new bi-linear approximations for carbon steels and low-alloy steels are proposed. The proposed bi-linear approximations for carbon and low-alloy steels, which include the temperature effect on strength and hardening of material, estimate their stress-strain behavior reasonably well.

  • Multiple linear cryptanalysis has been researched as a method building up the linear attack strength. We indicate that the lastest linear attack algorithm using multiple approximations, which was proposed by Biryukov et al. is hardly applicable to block ciphers with highly nonlinear key schedule, and propose a new multiple linear attack algorithm. Simulation of the new attack algorithm with a small block cipher shows that theory for the new multiple linear cryptanalysis works well in practice.
