  • This paper propose the NM-MMA (Novel Mixed-MMA) that is possible to improving the convergence speed of current MMA algorithm and reducing the high MSE of SE-MMA algorithm, and its equalization performance were analyzed. The cost function of the NM-MMA configured as the sum of appropriate weights of gradient vector of current MMA and SE-MMA, and then it used for the updating the tap coefficient of equalizer. The computer simulation was performed applying the same environment in the channel, step size and signal to noise ratio, and the same performance index in equalizer output signal constellation, residual isi, MSE, SER was used. As a result of computer simulation, the proposed NM-MMA has fast convergence time than MMA, and less in MSE and SER performance compared to SE-MMA.

  • The effect of steel-fiber contents on the compressive behavior of ultra high performance cementitious composites (UHPCC) was studied to propose a compressive behavior model for UHPCC. The experiments considered fiber contents of 0~5 vol.% and the results indicated that compressive strength and corresponding strain as well as elastic modulus were improved as the fiber contents increased. Compared to the previous study results obtained from concrete with compressive strength of 100MPa or less, the reinforcement effect on strength showed similar tendency, while the effect on the strain and elastic modulus were much less. Strength, strain, and elastic modulus according to the fiber contents were presented as a linear function of fiber reinforcement index (RI). Fiber reinforcement in UHPCC had no influence on the shape of compressive behavioral curve. Considering its effect on compressive strength, strain, and elastic modulus, a compressive stress-strain relation for UHPCC was proposed.

  • The primary function of the trackbed in a conventional railway track system is to decrease the stresses in the subgrade to be in an acceptable level. A properly designed trackbed layer performs this task adequately. Many design procedures have used assumed and/or are based on critical stiffness values of the layers obtained mostly in the field to calculate an appropriate thickness of the sublayers of the trackbed foundation. However, those stiffness values do not consider strain levels clearly and precisely in the layers. This study proposes a method of computation of stiffness that can handle with strain level in the layers of the trackbed foundation in order to provide properly selected design values of the stiffness of the layers. The shear modulus values are dependent on shear strain level so that the strain levels generated in the subgrade in the trackbed under wheel loading and below plate of Repeated Plate Bearing Test (RPBT) are investigated by finite element analysis program ABAQUS and PLAXIS programs. The strain levels generated in the subgrade from RPBT are compared to those values from RC (Resonant Column) test after some consideration of strain levels and stress consideration. For comparison of shear modulus G obtained from RC test and stiffness moduli $E_{v2}$ obtained from RPBT in the field, many numbers of mid-size RC tests in laboratory and RPBT in field were performed extensively. It was found in this study that there is a big difference in stiffness modulus when the converted $E_{v2}$ values were compared to those values of RC test. It is verified in this study that it is necessary to use precise and increased loading steps to construct nonlinear curves from RPBT in order to get correct $E_{v2}$ values in proper strain levels.

  • In this study, correlation between measured deformation modulus using pressuremeter and RMR value conducted in 10 sites is analyzed, and applicability of the conventional empirical formulas to the rock masses in Korea are analyzed, It is found that if RMR is below 40, the correlation between deformation modulus and RMR accords Kim Gyo-won's formula and Aydan, Serafim and Pereira's one well, but if the RMR exceeds 40, the correlation was lower than those from the formula. Such results may be attribute to the fact that during classification of RMR, scores are weighed relatively more in joint conditions and apertures than such highly correlational items as uniaxial compression strength or RQD, and RMR would not be evaluated qualitatively due to different weathering degrees and rock mass types as well as engineers' personal errors. Sandstone among sedimentary rocks are quite well accord with suggested equation, but correlation of other rocks are due to large variance. In this study, correlation expressions of various rocks are proposed as the function of exponential based on the field test data.

  • In this paper, the concerned CMA (Constant Modulus Algorithm) adaptive equalizer convergence rate and residual inter-symbol interference using cost function in order to improved to the ACMA (Advanced CMA). The CMA method compensates amplitude but does not compensate phase. On the other hand, The RCA (Reduced Constellation Algorithm) method compensates both the amplitude and the phase but it has the convergence rate problem. MCMA method is a way to solve the phase problem of CMA method compensates both the amplitude and the phase after respectively calculating the real and imaginary components. But it is more than poor CMA method in the complexity of hardware and the compensation performance. The cost function can advantages by improving the CMA and a MCMA (Modified CMA) equalizer so that the amplitude and phase retrieval the equalization steady-state to reduce the error by using ISI and faster convergence rate and performance is good SER (Symbol Error Ratio) was confirmed by computer simulations.

  • Finite Element Method is a strong tool to analyse static and dynamic problem of a structure. FEM is a good method for static problem, but for dynamic problem there are some differences between real phenomena and analyzed phenomena. Therefore some modifications are needed to identify two results. In this paper authors propose a genetic algorithm method 1) to adjust dimensions of plate for identifying natural frequencies, 2) to fit amplitude of FEM Frequency Response Function(FRF) onto it of real FRF. Analysis by raw FEM data gave questions if the results were for the same object. By only adjusting Young's modulus much better accordances were obtained, but limitation existed still. Very good agreements were achieved by shape modification and damping coefficient identification.

  • Finite element model updating has been performed using an optimization technique in the paper. The objective function consists of natural frequencies, modal assurance criterion values, and bandwidths of modes, which are obtained from finite element analysis and experiment. Young's modulus and damping coefficient of the material are selected as design variables whose values are modified to make the objective function as small as possible. To consider the loading effect of an accelerometer, its mass and moment of inertia are added to design variables. This model updating method has been applied to a cantilever beam, and experimental data are measured by modal test.

  • In this paper, a boundary version of Schwarz lemma is investigated. We take into consideration a function f(z) holomorphic in the unit disc and f(0) = 0, f'(0) = 1 such that ${\Re}f^{\prime}(z)$ > ${\frac{1-{\alpha}}{2}}$, -1 < ${\alpha}$ < 1, we estimate a modulus of the second non-tangential derivative of f(z) function at the boundary point $z_0$ with ${\Re}f^{\prime}(z_0)={\frac{1-{\alpha}}{2}}$, by taking into account their first nonzero two Maclaurin coefficients. Also, we shall give an estimate below ${\mid}f^{{\prime}{\prime}}(z_0){\mid}$ according to the first nonzero Taylor coefficient of about two zeros, namely z = 0 and $z_1{\neq}0$. The sharpness of these inequalities is also proved.

  • In this paper, the structure of CMAC address mapping is first revisited, and the address hashing function and the random mapping is discussed in the conventional CMAC implementation. Then the effective size of CMAC memory is derived from the modulus property of the CMAC address vector, and a new hashing function for the effective memory mapping is proposed for a CMAC implementation with feasible memory size and no troublesome random mapping. Finally, the performance of the conventional CMAC learning algorithm and that of the proposed new CMAC scheme arc compared via simulations.

  • In this paper, we obtain a new boundary version of the Schwarz lemma for analytic function. We give sharp upper bounds for |f'(0)| and sharp lower bounds for |f'(c)| with c ∈ ∂D = {z : |z| = 1}. Thus we present some new inequalities for analytic functions. Also, we estimate the modulus of the angular derivative of the function f(z) from below according to the second Taylor coefficients of f about z = 0 and z = z0 ≠ 0. Thanks to these inequalities, we see the relation between |f'(0)| and 𝕽f(0). Similarly, we see the relation between 𝕽f(0) and |f'(c)| for some c ∈ ∂D. The sharpness of these inequalities is also proved.
