Current engineering practice in determining sectional dimensions of prestressed concrete (PSC) girders for bridges is primarily based on the code-specified allowable concrete stresses at different loading stages. It is customary that tendons and sectional dimensions are calibrated and tendon forces are applied at once at the initial stage to keep the subsequent stresses occurring at different loading stages within the allowable stresses. This traditional tensioning method, however, usually results in a too conservative sectional depth in view of ultimate capacity of a girder. A new design method which can realize the reduction of sectional depth of PSC girders is theoretically suggested in this study. Tendons are tensioned twice at different loading stages: the initial stage and the stage after fresh slab concrete is cast. It can be shown that according to this technique, sectional depth can be significantly reduced and larger span can be realized compared to traditional ones. Parametric studies are performed with due considerations given to its practical applications.

Experimental procedure to measure fracture toughness (J$_{c}$) under mixed mode loading using CTS(Compact Tension-Shear) specimens is described. It\`s loading angle ranges from 0$^{\circ}$ to 45$^{\circ}$ with interval of 157. The general outline of experimental procedure is similar to that of ASTM E8l3-89 fur mode I fracture. Equations fur determining J-integral is quoted from the authors' previous works. The relation between unloading compliance and physical crack size was calibrated. As an example, fracture toughness of aluminum alloy 2024p-7361 was measured and some reasonable results of J$_{c}$ with various loading angles were obtained.

This study compared Kd, loss factor and thickness of floor impact isolator by loading/unloading heat treatment with results by continuous loading treatment and checked problem and improvement method of heat treatment condition for the long-term stability evaluation of the floor impact isolation. As the results, it is required the change of heat treatment condition unloading now to loading as actual weigh on the floor impact isolator.

Stress analysis of the bogie frame by using the finite element method has been performed for the various loading conditions according to the results of vehicle dynamics analysis. Multiaxial fatigue analysis methods such as signed von Mises method, and typical critical plane theories were reviewed, and margin of safety for fatigue is defined. Multiaxial fatigue analysis program to predict the margin of safety of bogie frame under non-proportional loading conditions has been developed by using a commercial command language. Fatigue analysis of bogie frame under multiaxial loading was performed through this program and finite element analysis result. The procedure developed in this study is considered to be useful for the fatigue strength analysis in preliminary design stage of railway components under multiaxial loading condition.

This study complements the previous studies on workload distribution problems in Flexible Manufacturing Systems. Specifically, we consider the problem in two perspectives, the long-range policy and the short and medium-term planning and control. The long-term loading policy focusses on identifying the optimal loading of the system characterized by either balanced loading or unique unbalanced loading for which a steepest ascent method is developed. These results are then applied to study the optimal medium and short-term planning and control problems, for which a truncated dynamic programming method is developed in order to obtain the optimal allocation of the given operation mix of part types to work stations.

This paper will focus on improving the performance of orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (OFDM) in Rayleigh fading environments. The proposed technique will use a previously published method that has been shown to improve OFDM performance in independent fading, based on ordered sub-carrier selection. Then, a simple non-iterative method for finding the optimal bit-loading allocation was proposed. It was also based on ordered sub-carrier selection. We compared both of these algorithms to an optimal bit-loading solution to determine their effectiveness in a correlated fading environment. The correlated fading was simulated using the JTC channel models. Our intent was not to create an optimal solution, but to create a low complexity solution that can be used in a wireless environment in which the channel conditions change rapidly and that require a simple algorithm for fast bit loading.

A simple strategy is proposed herein for attaining uniform current distribution in direct methanol fuel cells by varying the catalyst loading over the electrode. In order to use the same total catalyst amount for a serpentine flow field, three spatial variation types of catalyst loading were selected: enhancing the cathode catalyst loading (i) near the cathode outlet, (ii) near the cathode inlet, and (iii) near the lateral areas. These variations in catalyst loading are shown to improve the homogeneity of the current distribution, particularly at lower currents and lower air-flow rates. Among these three variations, increased loading near the lateral areas was shown to contribute most to achieving a homogenous current distribution. The mechanism underlying each catalyst loading variation method is different; very high catalyst-loading is shown to decrease the homogeneity of the distribution, which may be caused by water management in the thick catalyst layer thereof.

The use of non-linear analysis of structures in a functional way for evaluating the structural seismic behavior has attracted the attention of the engineering community in recent years. The most commonly used functional method for analysis is a non-linear static method known as the "pushover method". In this study, for the first time, a cyclic pushover analysis with different loading protocols was used for seismic investigation of curved bridges. The finite element model of 8-span curved bridges in plan created by the ZEUS-NL software was used for evaluating different pushover methods. In order to identify the optimal loading protocol for use in astatic non-linear cyclic analysis of curved bridges, four loading protocols (suggested by valid references) were used. Along with cyclic analysis, conventional analysis as well as adaptive pushover analysis, with proven capabilities in seismic evaluation of buildings and bridges, have been studied. The non-linear incremental dynamic analysis (IDA) method has been used to examine and compare the results of pushover analyses. To conduct IDA, the time history of 20 far-field earthquake records was used and the 50% fractile values of the demand given the ground motion intensity were computed. After analysis, the base shear vs displacement at the top of the piers were drawn. Obtained graphs represented the ability of a cyclic pushover analysis to estimate seismic capacity of the concrete piers of curved bridges. Based on results, the cyclic pushover method with ISO loading protocol provided better results for evaluating the seismic investigation of concrete piers of curved bridges in plan.

본 연구에서는 대심도 연약지반 개량에 많이 사용되고 있는 성토재하공법과 대기압재하방식 진공압밀공법의 현장계측자료를 분석하여 하중재하방식에 따른 지반의 침하거동 차이를 분석하였다. 이를 위해 준설토로 매립된 초연약지반인 ${\bigcirc}{\bigcirc}$지역 항만부지 축조공사의 현장계측 자료를 이용하였으며, 진공압밀공법 적용구간과 성토재하공법 적용구간에서의 계측결과를 비교하여 진공압밀공법이 적용된 지역의 압밀특성을 분석하였다. 이에 잔류침하량 도달까지의 재하시간을 분석한 결과, 진공압밀공법 구간이 성토재하공법 구간보다 45% 정도 빠르게 허용 침하량에 도달하는 것으로 나타났다. 이는 진공압밀시 등방압밀 효과로 인하여 전단파괴 없이 일시에 하중재하가 가능하기 때문에 이러한 하중재하 기간의 차이가 허용침하량 도달시간을 단축시킨 것으로 판단된다.
