In this paper, a dynamic behavior(natural frequency) of a cracked simply supported pipe conveying fluid is presented. In addition, an analysis of the flutter and buckling instability of a cracked pipe conveying fluid due to the coupled mode (modes combined) is presented. Based on the Euler-Bernouli beam theory, the equation of motion can be constructed by using the Lagrange's equation. The crack section is represented by a local flexibility matrix connecting two undamaged beam segments. The stiffness of the spring depends on the crack severity and the geometry of the cracked section. The crack is assumed to be in the first mode of fracture and to be always opened during the vibrations. This study will contribute to the safety test and stability estimation of structures of a cracked pipe conveying fluid.

A ribonucleic acid (RNA) is one of the two types of nucleic acids found in living organisms. An RNA molecule represents a long chain of monomers called nucleotides. The sequence of nucleotides of an RNA molecule constitutes its primary structure, and the pattern of pairing between nucleotides determines the secondary structure of an RNA. Non-coding RNA genes produce transcripts that exert their function without ever producing proteins. Predicting the secondary structure of non-coding RNAs is very important for understanding their functions. We focus on Nussinov's algorithm as useful techniques for predicting RNA secondary structures. We introduce a new traceback matrix and scoring table to improve above algorithm. And the improved algorithm provides better levels of performance than the originals.

현재 국내에서는 아파트 건물을 짓는데 벽과 바닥판으로만 이루어진 벽식 구조형식을 많이 사용하고 있다. 이러한 고층 아파트건물을 해석하기 위해서 ETABS나 MIDAS/BDS 같은 상용프로그램이 주로 사용되고 있다. ETABS는 해석상의 편의를 위하여 바다판을 강막으로 가정하여 모형화 하고 바닥판의 휨강성은 고려하지 않고 있다. 이러한 가정은 프레임 구조물을 해석할 때에는 합리적이라고 할 수 있다. 그러나 벽식 구조물은 바닥판의 휨강성이 전체 구조물의 횡방향 강성에 큰 영향을 미치므로 바닥판의 휨강성을 고려하지 않으면 전체 구조물의 강성을 과소평가하게 된다. 따라서 바닥판을 판요소로 세분하여 모형화 하는 것이 필요하다. 그러나 이때 많은 양의 해석 시간과 컴퓨터 메모리가 필요하게 된다. 따라서 본 연구에서는 부분구조법과 행렬응축기법을 사용하여 해석 시간과 컴퓨터 메모리의 사용을 줄이면서도 바닥판의 휨강성을 효율적으로 해석할 수 있는 해석 기법을 제안하였고 예제를 통하여 검증하였다.

In this work, Ni-Co composites incorporated with nano-sized SiC particles in the range of 45-55 nm are prepared by electroplating. The effects of plating duration on the chemical composition, surface morphology, crystalline structures and hardness have been studied. The maximum hardness of Ni-Co-SiC composite coating is approximately 633 Hv at plating duration of 1 h. The hardness is gradually decreased with increasing plating duration, which can be attributed to the growth of crystalline size and the agglomerates of SiC nano-particles. It is therefore explained that the grain refinement of Ni-Co matrix and stable dispersion of SiC particles play an important role for strengthening, which indicate Hall-Petch relation and Orowan model were dominant for hardening of Ni-Co-SiC composite coatings.

This paper presents the work peformed in a program developing composite material which properties satisfy structural and thermal requirements for aircrafts and spacecrafts. In the aerospace vehicle structures, the specific strength of the materials is one of the important requirements and this is why polymer matrix composite material with reinforced carbon fiber is widely used. However, the mechanical properties of the composite material have been known to be dependent on processing and this difficulties in evaluation have caused a lot of mechanical tests for each batch.

We study the quasi-commutativity in relation with powers of coefficients of polynomials. In the procedure we introduce the concept of ${\pi}$-quasi-commutative ring as a generalization of quasi-commutative rings. We show first that every ${\pi}$-quasi-commutative ring is Abelian and that a locally finite Abelian ring is ${\pi}$-quasi-commutative. The role of these facts are essential to our study in this note. The structures of various sorts of ${\pi}$-quasi-commutative rings are investigated to answer the questions raised naturally in the process, in relation to the structure of Jacobson and nil radicals.

Dynamic structural behavior in long span bridges, especially cable structures, is very sophisticated due to their flexibility and structural members are sequentially erected in each construction step. In this study, the consistent mass matrix for dynamic analysis is formulated and computational program considering construction sequences is developed where structural members can be builded or removed by command language and automatically reanalyzed in the moment when structural system is changed. The dynamic analysis, i.e. eigenvalue and time series analysis and the geometrically nonlinear analysis considering construction sequence are conducted to the Namhae Bridge. The analytical results are satisfactory compared with measuring values and the developed computational program can successfully be applied to design and safety check.

With polymer properties and ceramic volume fraction as design variables, the optimal structure of 1-3 piezocomposites has been determined to maximize the thickness mode electromechanical coupling factor. When the piezocomposite vibrates in a thickness mode, inter-pillar resonant modes are likely to occur between lattice-structured piezoceramic pillars and polymer matrix, which significantly deteriorates the performance of the piezocomposite. In this work, a new method to design the structure of the 1-3 type piezocomposite is proposed to maximize the thickness mode electromechanical coupling factor while preventing the occurrence of the inter-pillar modes. Genetic algorithm was used for the optimal design, and the finite element analysis method was used for the analysis of the inter-pillar mode.

It is very important to well understand the dynamic characteristics of damaged structures to successfully develop or to choose a most appropriate structural damage identification method (SDIM) as the means of non-destructive testing. In this pope., the dynamic equation of motion for damaged plates is derived by introducing a damage distribution function, which may characterize the effective state of structural damages. It is found that structural damages may induce the coupling between modal coordinates. The effects of damages on the vibration characteristics of a plate depending on their locations, sizes, and magnitudes are numerically investigated in a systematic way. The numerical investigations are also given to the effects of damage-induced modal coupling on the changes in vibration characteristics and to the minimum number of natural modes required to predict sufficiently accurate vibration characteristics of damaged plates.

본 논문에서는 여러가지 형태의 결합부에 적용할 수 있는 일반적인 모델링 기법에 대하여 기술하였다. 기존의 해석방법은 특정한 결합부에만 적용이 가능하고 유한요소해석과 실험이 상호 보완적인 관계를 가진 형태의 해석방법이므로 실험이 불가능한 경우에 대해서는 적용하기 어려운 경우도 있다. 본 논문에서는 별도의 실험을 수행하지 않고 결합부 영역만을 상세하게 유한요소 모델링을 하여서 선택된 자유도에 대한 유연성 행렬(Flexibility Matrix)을 구하여 결합부의 특성을 구하는 일반적 모델링 기법을 제시하였다. 이 방법은 수치적으로 축약할 수 없는 모델-결합부가 접촉면(Contact Surface)을 가지고 있는 구조물을 효과적으로 축약할 수 있는 장점이 있다. 또한 모델링되는 결합부의 경계조건의 영향을 배제할 수 있으며 결합부에 존재하는 비선형성도 적정범위내에서 선형화할 수 있다. 제시한 일반적 모델링 기법을 나사 결합부, 접착제 결합부(Glued Joints), 볼트 결합부에 적용하여 결합부이 특성을 구하였으며 실험을 통하여 제시한 해석방법의 타당성을 검증하였다.
