$Li^+$ ion complex of azacrown ether with restricted motion of freedom and pseudo-bilateral symmetry was studied by infrared spectroscopy, which has shown simplified and broadened vibrational features. The C=O and N-H stretching bands, in particular, shows anomalous broadening nearly ${\sim}50\;cm^{-1}$. The density functional calculation at the level of BP86/6-31+$G^{**}$ shows that $Li^+$ ion is trapped and rather free to move around inside the cavity, as much as about $0.70\;{\AA}$. Through the relocation of $Li^+$ ion inside the cavity, the conformational changes would occur rapidly in its symmetry $C_1\;{\rightleftarrows}\;C_2\;{\rightleftarrows}\;C_1$$. The potential barrier was obtained to be merely ~2.2 kJ/mol for $C_1\;{\rightarrow}\;C_2$. During this conformational alteration, the amide backbone twists concurrently its dihedral angle side to side about up to ${\pm}3$ degree. Selected vibrational modes were interpreted in terms of the force constant variations of local symmetry coordinates between conformations in the framework of $C_1\;{\rightleftarrows}\;C_2\;{\rightleftarrows}\;C_1$.

An analytical method for nautral frequencies of a partially liquid- filled circular cylindrical shell with various boundary conditions is developed by means of the Stokes's transformation and Fourier series expansion on the basis of Sanders' shell equation. The liquid-shell coupled system is divided into two regions for convenient formulation. One is the empty shell region in which the Sanders' shell equations are formulated without the lipuid effect, the other is wetted shell region in which the shell equations are formulated with consideration of the liquid dynamic effect. The shell equations for each regions are combined by the geometry and the force continuities at the junction of the two regions. For the vibration relevant to the liquid motion, the velocity potential of liquid is assumed as a sum of linear combination of suitable harmonic functions in axial direction. The unknown parameters are selected to satisfy the boundary condition along the wetted shell surface. The natural frequencies of the liquid filled cylindraical shells with the clamped- free and the clamped-clamped boundary conditions examined in the previous works, are obtained by this analytical method. The results are compared with the previous works, and excllent agreement is found for the natural frequencies of the shells.

The numerical investigation of obliquely incident wave interactions with fully submerged dual buoy/porous-membrane floating breakwaters placed in parallel with spacing is studied based on linear potential theory and Darcy's law. The numerical solutions are obtained by using a discrete-membrane dynamic model and second-kind modified Bessel function distribution over the entire boundaries of fluid regions. First, numerical solutions for an idealized dual submerged system without buoys are obtained. Second, a more practical dual submerged system with membrane tension provided by buoys at its tops is investigated by the multi-domain boundary element method particularly devised for dual buoy/porous-membrane problems with gaps. The velocity potentials of wave motion are coupled with porous-membrane deformation, and solved simultaneously since the boundary condition on porous-membrane is not known in advance. The effects of varying permeability on membranes and wave characteristics are discussed for the optimum design parameters of systems previously studied. The inclusion of permeability on membrane eliminates the resonances that aggravate the breakwater performance. The system is highly efficient when waves generated by the buoys and membranes were mutually canceled and its energy at resonance frequency dissipates through fine pores on membranes.

The potential of the liquid column vibration absorber (LCVA) as a seismic vibration control device for structures has been explored in this paper. In this work, the structure has been modeled as a linear, viscously damped single-degree-of-freedom (SDOF) system. The governing differential equations of motion for the damper liquid and for the coupled structure-LCVA system have been derived from dynamic equilibrium. The nonlinear orifice damping in the LCVA has been linearized by a stochastic equivalent linearization technique. A transfer function formulation for the structure-LCVA system has been presented. The design parameters of the LCVA have been identified and by applying the transfer function formulation the optimum combination of these parameters has been determined to obtain the most efficient control performance of the LCVA in terms of the reduction in the root-mean-square (r.m.s.) displacement response of the structure. The study has been carried out for an example structure subjected to base input characterized by a white noise power spectral density function (PSDF). The sensitivity of the performance of the LCVA to the coefficient of head loss and to the tuning ratio have also been examined and compared with that of the liquid column damper (LCD). Finally, a simulation study has been carried out with a recorded accelerogram, to demonstrate the effectiveness of the LCVA.

For the purpose of improving accuracy in jet noise prediction and investigating its generation mechanism, high subsonic jets were computed by using compressible Large Eddy Simulation(LES), wherein the inflow forcing or disturbance added in the inflow shear layer was incorporated. The far-field Sound Pressure Levels(SPL) as well as the flow field resulted in good agreement with available experimental data by applying only the high azimuthal modes among the inflow forcing parameters. We found that this result was due to an important role of the inflow forcing upon breaking down the axiymmetric vortices that caused high amplitude velocity and pressure fluctuations. In order to examine generation mechanism of the dominant noise component, wavelet transformation was introduced to reveal the presence of a well-organized structure of pressure fluctuations that originated mainly from vortex motions near the end of the jet potential core. This structure took a train of alternately positive and negative wavelet-transformed pressure regions along the jet distance, spreading towards the downstream with advection and propagation. It was concluded that this structure and its dynamic motion are the reason why a high subsonic jet produces the dominant noise with a particular downstream directivity.

The dynamic performance of the wave energy converter (WEC) rotor with different geometric parameters such as depth of submergence and beak angle has been assessed by considering the linear potential flow theory using WAMIT solver and along with the computational fluid dynamics (CFD). The effect of viscous damping is incorporated by conducting numerical free decay test using CFD. The hydrodynamic coefficients obtained from the WAMIT, viscous damping from the CFD and estimated PTO damping are used to solve the equation of motion to obtain the final pitch response, mean optimal power and capture width. The viscous damping is almost 0.9 to 4.6 times when compared to the actual damping. It is observed that by neglecting the viscous damping the pitch response and power are overestimated when compared to the without viscous damping. The performance of the pitch WEC rotor in the Jeju western coast at the Chagwido is analyzed using Joint North Sea Wave Project (JONSWAP) spectrum and square-root of average extracted power is obtained. The performance of WEC rotor with depth of submergence 2.8 m and beak angle $60^{\circ}$ found to be good compared to the other rotors.

This research introduces a new composite system that utilizes multiple moving masses to identify cracks in structures resembling beams. The process starts by recording displacement time data from a set of these moving masses and converting this information into a relative time history through weighted aggregation. This relative time history then undergoes wavelet transform analysis to precisely locate cracks. Following wavelet examinations, specific points along the beam are determined as potential crack sites. These points, along with locations on the beam susceptible to cracked point due to support conditions, are marked as crack locations within the optimization algorithm's search domain. The model uses equations of motion based on the finite element method for the moving masses on the beam and employs the Runge-Kutta numerical solution within the state space. The proposed system consists of three successive moving masses positioned at even intervals along the beam. To assess its effectiveness, the method is tested on two examples: a simply supported beam and a continuous beam, each having three scenarios to simulate the presence of one or multiple cracks. Additionally, another example investigates the influence of mass speed, spacing between masses, and noise effect. The outcomes showcase the method's effectiveness and efficiency in localizing crack, even in the presence of noise effect in 1%, 5% and 20%.

Dynamic aeroelastic behavior of structurally nonlinear Joined Wings is presented. Three configurations, two characterized by a different location of the joint and one presenting a direct connection between the two wings (SensorCraft-like layout) are investigated. The snap-divergence is studied from a dynamic perspective in order to assess the real response of the configuration. The investigations also focus on the flutter occurrence (critical state) and postcritical phenomena. Limit Cycle Oscillations (LCOs) are observed, possibly followed by a loss of periodicity of the solution as speed is further increased. In some cases, it is also possible to ascertain the presence of period doubling (flip-) bifurcations. Differences between flutter (Hopf's bifurcation) speed evaluated with linear and nonlinear analyses are discussed in depth in order to understand if a linear (and thus computationally less intense) representation provides an acceptable estimate of the instability properties. Both frequency- and time-domain approaches are compared. Moreover, aerodynamic solvers based on the potential flow are critically examined. In particular, it is assessed in what measure more sophisticated aerodynamic and interface models impact the aeroelastic predictions. When the use of the tools gives different results, a physical interpretation of the leading mechanism generating the mismatch is provided. In particular, for PrandtlPlane-like configurations the aeroelastic response is very sensitive to the wake's shape. As a consequence, it is suggested that a more sophisticate modeling of the wake positively impacts the reliability of aerodynamic and aeroelastic analysis. For SensorCraft-like configurations some LCOs are characterized by a non-synchronous motion of the inner and outer portion of the lower wing: the wing's tip exhibits a small oscillation during the descending or ascending phase, whereas the mid-span station describes a sinusoidal-like trajectory in the time-domain.

목적: 수용체 결합능 정량화를 위해서는 방사성추적자의 동태를 충분히 관찰하기 위해서 보통 뇌 PET 영상을 60-120분 정도 얻어야 한다. 이처럼 장기간 PET 영상을 얻게 되는 경우 보통 피험자의 수의적/불수의적 움직임을 피할 수 없고 이러한 피험자의 머리 움직임은 재구성된 PET 영상의 공간해상도를 저하시키고 측정된 방사능 농도의 정확성을 떨어뜨리는 요인이 된다. 이 연구에서는 동적 영상 정보만을 이용하여 피험자의 머리 움직임을 보정할 수 있는 방법을 개발하고 이를 피험자의 움직임이 불가항력적인 뇌활성화 도파민 D2 수용체 영상에 적용하여 움직임 보정이 리간드 결합능 및 외부 자극에 의한 도파민 유리(release) 정량화에 미치는 영향을 평가하였다. 대상 및 방법: 4명의 정상인 자원자에서 비디오 게임에 의한 도파민 유리를 평가하기 위한 실험으로 순간+연속 주입법을 이용하여 얻은 $[^{11}C]raclopride$ PET 영상을 이용하였으며 실제로 도파민 유리를 계산하기 위해서 필요한 프레임들만을 선별해서 영상 정합 기법을 적용하였다. 즉, $[^{11}C]raclopride$을 투여한 후 선조체에서의 리간드의 특이적 결합이 항정상태(steady state)에 최초로 도달하는 과제 수행 전 (30-50 분) 영역과, 비디오 게임 과제에 의해 도파민이 유리된 후 다시 항정상태에 도달하는 70-90분, 비디오 게임을 멈춘 후 다시 항정상태에 도달하는 110-120 분 데이터에만 움직임 보정 기법을 적용하는 방식이다. 각 항정상태 구간은 보통 2-4개의 프레임으로 구성되므로 먼저 이들 프레임들간의 영상정합을 수행(intra-condition registration)하여 평균 영상을 만들고 이들 평균 영상들을 정합하여 최종적으로 움직임 보정(inter-condition registration)을 하였다. 게임 수행 전후의 도파민유리를 평가하기 위하여 머리 움직임 보정 전후의 게임 과제 수행 전후의 결합능 백분율 변화를 구하였으며 각 조건에 대한 결합능 파라미터 영상을 구하고 움직임 보정 전후의 결합능 영상의 화소별 차이를 SPM2를 이용한 t-test(쌍체 검정)로 알아보았다. 결과: 움직임 보정 전후의 영상을 비교하였을 때, 움직임 보정 전 영상에서, 게임 수행시 영상이 게임을 위한 스크린 위치에 따른 시야 변동으로 게임 수행전 영상에 비하여 앞쪽 아래로 기울어져 있음을 알 수 있었으며 이러한 경향은 대상 피험자 모두에서 관찰되었다. 보정 전 영상으로부터 측정된 비디오 게임에 의한 도파민 유리는 putamen에서 29%, caudate head에서 57%, ventral striatum에서 17% 였으나, 보정 후 영상으로부터 구한 도파민 유리는 이들 영역에서 각각 3.9%, 14,1%, 0.6%로 움직임 보정을 하지 않은 경우 선조체 모든 구소물에서 결합능 감소, 즉 게임에 의한 도파민 유리가 과대평가됨을 알 수 있다. SPM 분석결과에서도 움직임을 보정하지 않은 영상을 이용한 경우, 선조체 구조물에서의 결합능 감소와 움직임에 의한 영상강도 저하가 복합적으로 영향을 주어 결합능 차이가 매우 유의하게 평가되었으나 움직임 보정 후 영상을 이용하여 비교한 경우, 결합능 변화가 선조체 영역에서 국한되어 나타나며 그 유의성이 움직임 보정 전에 비하여 낮음을 알 수 있었다. 결론: 뇌활성화 과제 수행시에 동반되는 피험자의 머리 움직임에 의하여 도파민 유리가 과대평가되었으며 이는 이 연구에서 제안한 영상정합을 이용한 움직임 보정기법에 의해서 개선되었다.
