The calibration of lens to be used and the planning of photographing planning layout is very important to achieve the requested accuracy in the precision measurement by close-range photogrammetry. Establishment of absolute coordinate system is regarded as another important factor for the purpose of measuring absolute deformation of photogrammetric object. In this study, the following tasks were performed : (1) calibration of super-wide-angle lens or focal length 21mm fer close-range photographing used by 35mm metric camera, (2) development of the measuring system for monitoring of absolute deformation through periodic observation of small area, and, (3) application of this system to monitor the absolute deformation of surface of underwater structure in fixed cycle and to present the efficiency of the system.

This study investigates the effect of the deformation on the sensitivity of a flexible polydimethylsiloxane (PDMS) membrane sensor. A PDMS membrane sensor was developed to measure the impact force of a water droplet using a silver nanowire (AgNW). The initial deformation of the membrane was confirmed with the application of a tensile force (i.e., tension) and fixing force (i.e., compressive force) at the gripers, which affects the sensitivity. The experimental results show that as the tension applied to the membrane increased, the sensitivity of the sensor decreased. The initial electrical resistance increased as the fixing force increased, while the sensitivity of the sensor decreased as the initial resistance increased. The movement of the membrane due to the impact force of the water droplet was observed with a high-speed camera, and was correlated with the measured sensor signal. The analysis of the motion of the membrane and droplets after collision confirmed the periodic movement of not only the membrane but also the change in the height of the droplet.

Recently, a new cellular metal, WBK(Wire woven Bulk Kagome) has been introduced. WBK is fabricated by assembling metal wires in six directions into a Kagome-like truss structure and by brazing it at all the crossings. Wires as the raw material are easy to handle and to attain high strength with minimum defect. And the strength and energy absorption are superior to previous cellular metals. Therefore, WBK seems to be promising once the fabrication process for mass production is developed. In this paper, an upper bound solution for the mechanical properties of the bulk WBK under compression is presented. In order to simulate uniform behavior of WBK consisted of perfectly uniform cells, a unit cell of WBK with periodic boundary conditions is analyzed by the finite element method. In comparison with experimental test results, it is found that the solution provides a good approximation of the mechanical properties of bulk WBK cellular metals except for Young's modulus. And also, the brazing joint size does not have any significant effect on the properties with an exception of an idealized thin joint.

Dynamic stability of graded nonlocal nano-dimension plates on elastic substrate due to in-plane periodic loads has been researched via a novel 3- unknown plate theory based on exact position of neutral surface. Proposed theory confirms the shear deformation effects and contains lower field components in comparison to first order and refined 4- unknown plate theories. A modified power-law function has been utilized in order to express the porosity-dependent material coefficients. The equations of nanoplate have been represented in the context of Mathieu-Hill equations and Chebyshev-Ritz-Bolotin's approach has been performed to derive the stability boundaries. Detailed impacts of static/dynamic loading parameters, nonlocal constant, foundation parameters, material index and porosities on instability boundaries of graded nanoscale plates are researched.

Two-dimensional elastic analysis of doubly periodic circular holes in an infinite plane is given in this paper. Two cases of loading, remote tension and remote shear, are considered. A rectangular cell is cut from the infinite plane. In both cases, the boundary value problem can be reduced to a complex mixed one. It is found that the eigenfunction expansion variational method is efficient to solve the problem. Based on the deformation response under certain loading, the notched medium could be modeled by an orthotropic medium without holes. Elastic properties for the equivalent orthotropic medium are investigated, and the stress concentration along the hole contour is studied. Finally, numerical examples and results are given.

An analytical method has been developed to estimate the dynamic contact force between wheel and rail when trains are running on rail with vertical irregularities. In this method, the effect of Hertzian deformation at the contact point is considered as a linearized spring and the wheel is considered as an sprung mass. The rail is modelled as a discretely-supported Timoshenko beam, and the periodic structure theory was adopted to obtain the driving-point receptance. As an example, the dynamic contact force for a typical wheel/rail system was analysed by the method developed in this research and the dynamic characteristics of the system was also discussed. It is revealed that discretely-supported Timoshenko beam model should be used instead of the previously used continuously-supported model or discretelysupported Euler beam model, for the frequency range above several hundred hertz.

Evaluating the effective properties of materials containing various types of in-homogeneities is an important issue in the analysis of structures composed of those materials. A simple and effective method for the purpose is to impose the periodic displacement boundary conditions on the finite element model of a unit cell. Their theoretical background is explained based on the purely kinematical relations in the regularly spaced in-homogeneity problems, and the strategies to implement them into the analysis and to evaluate the homogenized material constants are introduced. The creep behavior of a thin sheet with square arrayed rectangular voids is characterized, where the orthotropy is induced by the presence of the voids. The homogenization method is validated through the comparison of the analysis of detailed model with that of the simplified one with the effective parameters.

We have developed novel optical-fiber sensors based on strain-induced long-period fiber gratings for monitoring the deformation of a hull. They have no external pressure for sustaining the mechanical formed gratings. The pressure, which provides a force to form the periodic grating along the single mode fiber, was realized by the bonding strength of a photopolymer. To reduce the polarization dependency of the sensors caused by the asymmetry structure of gratings, a Faraday Rotator Mirror (FRM) was utilized in this experiment. We have realized the polarization-insensitive function of the proposed sensors. The change of an external strain are measured by an optical spectrum analyzer. When the external stain increases. the attenuation at the resonant wavelength decreases and the loss peak was slightly shifted to the shorter wavelength.

This paper deals with large deformation post-buckling of a linear-elastic and hygrothermal beam with axially nonmovable pinned-pinned ends and subjected to a significant increase in swelling by an alternative method. Analytical approximate solutions for the geometrically nonlinear problem are presented. The solution for the limiting case of a string is also obtained. By coupling of the well-known Maclaurin series expansion and orthogonal Chebyshev polynomials, the governing differential equation with sinusoidal nonlinearity can be reduced to form a cubic-nonlinear equation, and supplementary condition with cosinoidal nonlinearity can also be simplified to be a polynomial integral equation. Analytical approximations to the resulting boundary condition problem are established by combining the Newton's method with the method of harmonic balance. Two approximate formulae for load along axis, potential strain for free hygrothermal expansion and periodic solution are established for small as well as large angle of rotation at the end of the beam. Illustrative examples are selected and compared to "reference" solution obtained by the shooting method to substantiate the accuracy and correctness of the approximate analytical approach.

Nanoimprint lithography (NIL) is an emerging technology enabling cost effective and high throughput nanofabrication. To successfully imprint a nanometer scale patterns, the understanding of the mechanism in nanoimprint forming is essential. In this paper, a numerical analysis of polymer flow in thermal NIL was performed. First, a finite element model of the periodic mold structure with prescribed boundary conditions was established. Then, the volume of fluid (VOF) and grid deformation method were utilized to calculate the free surfaces of the polymer flow based on an Eulerian grid system. From the simulation, the velocity fields and the imprinting pressure for constant imprinting velocity in thermal NIL were obtained. The velocity field is significant because it can directly describe the mode of the polymer deformation, which is the key role to determine the mechanism of nanoimprint forming. Effects of different mold shapes and various thicknesses of polymer resist were also investigated.
