Carbon fiber reinforced plastic(CFRP) plate Is one of the alterative materials for soengthening of reinforced and prestressed connote members due to excellent strength and light weight In this paper, the behavior of beams strengthened with CFRP plate and CFS(Carbon fiber sheet) is observed and analyzed from the test results. Especially specimens with thick plate is tested when large moment and large shear lone appear in same position. The main failure mode is a peeling-off of the CFRP plate near the loading points due to flexural-shear crack, Because of this failure mode, failure load is not linearly proportional to the thickness of CFRP plates. When beam is wrapped with CFS around oかy loading point it does not influence on the failure loads. Depending on the loading pattern, it is necessary to consider different design criteria for reinforced concrete members with external reinforcement. When line moment and large shear force appear in same location, maximum thickness may limit to 0.6mm and ratio between moment of strengthened beam and moment of unstrengthened beam is proposed 1.5-2.0. In order to use the plate of thicker than 6mm, CFS may be extended to the location which moment of strengthened beam is 1.5 times than moment of unstrengthened beam.

Seismic design code has been performed since 1988 in Korea, so it has not been applied to low-rise reinforced concrete buildings which had been built before 1988. Those building have been designed only for gravity loads based on non-seismic code, Therefore, even minor earthquake occurred, those buildings might have serious damages. In this paper, to investigate the behavior of low-rise reinforced concrete moment resisting frame which had been built in according to the building code of Korea that had been published before 1988, two type of 1/2 scaled exterior beam-column subassemblies which have non-seismic detailing based on the building code of Korea were constructed and tested with reversed cycling loading under the displacement control method. The special features of joint with non-seismic detailing is that there is no transverse reinforcement in the joint. In tests, cracks pattern, strength degradation, loss of stiffness, energy dissipation and the slippage of beam and column bars were investigated. Cracks did not occurred in the joint even seismic loading of 0.12g which is considered as peak ground acceleration in Korea was applied. And increasing seismic loading above 0.12g shear crack happened in the joint which have not transverse beam.

A moment-curvature relationship to simulate the behavior of reinforced concrete beam under cyclic loading is introduced. Unlike previous moment-curvature models and the layered section approach, the proposed model takes into consideration the bond-slip effect by using monotonic moment-curvature relationship constructed on the basis of the bond-slip relation and corresponding equilibrium equation at each nodal point. In addition, the use of curved unloading and reloading branches inferred from the stress-strain relation of steel gives more exact numerical result. The advantages of the proposed model, comparing to layered section approach, may be on the reduction in calculation time and memory space in case of its application to large structures. The modification of the moment-curvature relation to reflect the fixed-end rotation and pinching effect is also introduced. Finally, correlation studies between analytical results and experimental studies are conducted to establish the validity of the proposed model.

The use of fiber-reinforced polymer (FRP) reinforcing bars in concrete structures has been increased as an alternative of steel reinforcement which has shown greater vulnerability to corrosion problem. However, the long-term performance of concrete members with FRP reinforcement is still questioned in comparison to the used of steel reinforcement. This study presents the results of an experimental study on the long-term behaviors of GFRP (glass fiber reinforced polymer) bar reinforced concrete beams after exposed to accelerated aging in an environmental chamber with temperature of $46^{\circ}C$ ($115^{\circ}F$) and 80% of relative humidity up to 300 days. The objectives of this research was to compare strength degradation and change of ductility between GFRP reinforced concrete beams and steel reinforcement beams after accelerated aging. Two types (wrapped and sand-coated surface) of GFRP bars and steel were reinforced. in concrete beams. Test results show that the failure modes of GFRP bar reinforced concrete beams are very similar with traditional RC beams, and the change of load-carrying capacity of steel reinforcing concrete beam is greater than that of GFRP bar reinforcing concrete beam under the accelerated aging. Test result also shows that the use of GFRP reinforcing in concrete could be introduced more brittle failure than that of steel reinforcing for practical application. The deformability factor up to compression failures indicates no significant variation before and after exposure of accelerated aging.

This work describes an 8b 240 MS/s CMOS ADC as one of embedded core cells for high-performance displays requiring low power and small size at high speed. The proposed ADC uses externally connected pins only for analog inputs, digital outputs, and supplies. The ADC employs (1) a two-step pipelined architecture to optimize power and chip size at the target sampling frequency of 240 MHz, (2) advanced bootstrapping techniques to achieve high signal bandwidth in the input SHA, and (3) RC filter-based on-chip I/V references to improve noise performance with a power-off function added for portable applications. The prototype ADC is implemented in a 0.18 um CMOS and simultaneously integrated in a DVD system with dual-mode inputs. The measured DNL and INL are within 0.49 LSB and 0.69 LSB, respectively. The prototype ADC shows the SFDR of 53 dB for a 10 MHz input sinewave at 240 MS/s while maintaining the SNDR exceeding 38 dB and the SFDR exceeding 50 dB for input frequencies up to the Nyquist frequency at 240 MS/s. The ADC consumes, 104 mW at 240 MS/s and the active die area is 1.36 ㎟.

Parasitic capacitance and resistance of FinFET transistors are the important components that determine the frequency performance of the circuit. Therefore, the researchers in our group developed more accurate parasitic capacitance and resistance for FinFETs than BSIM-CMG. To verify the RF performance, proposed model was applied to design an LNA that has $S_{21}$ more than 10dB and center frequency more than 60GHz using HSPICE. To verify the accuracy of the proposed model, mixed-mode capability of 3D TCAD simulator Sentaurus was used. $S_{21}$ of LNA was chosen as a reference to estimate the error. $S_{21}$ of proposed model showed 87.5% accuracy compared to that of Sentaurus in 10GHz~100GHz frequency range. The $S_{21}$ accuracy of BSIM-CMG model was 56.5%, so by using the proposed model, the accuracy of the circuit simulator improved by 31%. This results validates the accuracy of the proposed model in RF domain and show that the accuracies of the parasitic capacitance and resistance are critical in accurately predicting the LNA performance.

As art analytic method to uncover interesting patterns hidden under a large volume of data, data mining research has been actively done so far in various fields. However, current state-of-the-arts in data mining research have several challenging problems such as being too ad-hoc. The existing techniques are mostly the ones designed for individual problems, so there is no unifying theory applicable for more general data mining problems. In this paper, we address the problem of classification, which is one of significant data mining tasks. Specifically, our objective is to evaluate radial basis function (RBF) model for classification tasks and investigate its usefulness. For evaluation, we analyze the popular Monk's problems which are well-known datasets in data mining research. First, we develop RBF models by using the representational capacity based learning algorithm, and then perform a comparative assessment of the results with other models generated by the existing techniques. Through a variety of experiments, it is empirically shown that the RBF model has not only the superior performance on the Monk's problems but also its modeling process can be controlled in a systematic way, so the RBF model with RC-based algorithm might be a good candidate to handle the current ad-hoc problem.

This study investigated the effect of 12 different commercial yeast strains on the characteristics of fermentation and wine quality. All yeast strains had more rapid fermentation at higher temperatures. Wines fermented with the AR2, EC-1118, Premier Cuvee, and RC212 strains had faster sedimentation rates than wines fermented with the other strains. Wines fermented with EC-1118, Montrachet, and Primeur had low titratable acidity whereas wines fermented with D47 and VR5 had high titratable acidity. There was a correlation (r = 0.826) between tannin content and wine redness. Wines fermented with Fermivin, Montrachet, Primeur, VR5, Noble, and Merit strains produced lower levels of sulfur dioxide during fermentation. Wines fermented with D47, K1V-1116, AR2, and VR5 had high concentrations of glycerol, a compound known to add to "mouth feel". Wines fermented with the Fermivin, Montrachet, and Noble strains had lower concentrations of volatile acids than wines fermented with the other strains.

The geotechnical characteristics of frozen ground is one of the key design issues for the construction of infrastructure in cold region. In this study, the dynamic properties (shear modulus and damping ratio) of frozen and unfrozen soils sampled from Terra Nova Bay located in eastern Antarctica, where Jang Bogo station was built, were investigated using Stokoe-type resonant column test (RC). In order to freeze the reconstituted soil specimen, the RC testing equipment was modified by adding a cooling system. A series of resonant column tests were performed in frozen and unfrozen soils with various soil densities and temperatures. The shear modulus (G) and damping ratio (D) of soil frozen at $-7^{\circ}C$ were compared with those of unfrozen soil. In addition, the effect of temperature rise on the maximum shear modulus ($G_{max}$) and damping ratio was experimentally investigated. This study has significance in that the difference of dynamic soil properties between frozen and unfrozen soils and the effect of temperature rise on frozen soil were identified.
