The thermal design of the bus bar of a Gas-Insulated Switchgear(GIS) becomes important since the current-carrying capacity of the GIS is limited by maximum operating temperature. In order to predict temperature rise of the bus bar, a program has been developed. Various heat sources possibly generated in the bus bar are calculated in the program. To estimate temperature rises at the bus bar caused by the heat balance between the heat generation and heat transfer, the finite volume method as well as the $4^{th}$ order Runge-Kutta method has been employed. In the experiments, temperature rises at conductor, contact part and external tank are measured for full-scale gas-insulated bus bars. The comparisons of the predicted values of the heat balance calculation to those of the experiments are made. From the comparisons, it is concluded that the developed program can predict the temperature rise of the bus bar quite well.

The variations of cold gas properties such as density, pressure, temperature and velocity which are dependent each other are closely related with the dielectric recovery of an interrupter. So, the pressure-rises at no-load in the puffer cylinder and in front of fixed arcing contact of 800kV model interrupter were measured experimentally using pressure transducers of strain gage type and semiconducting type, respectively. The maximum value of pressure-rise in the puffer cylinder increased almost linearly from 7.6 bar at the minimum operated pressure to 9.7 bar at the maximum operated pressure, while the pressure-rise in front of fixed arcing contact was independent with the operated pressure. The measured values will be utilized in verifying the self-developed cold flow analysis program and as an input of commercialized CFD program package.

This paper presents the experimental investigation into a new type of steel-concrete hybrid outrigger system developed for the high-rise building structure. The steel truss is embedded into the reinforced concrete outrigger wall, and both the steel truss and concrete outrigger wall work compositely to enhance the overall structural performance of the tower structures under extreme loads. Meanwhile, metal dampers of low-yield steel material were also adopted as a 'fuse' device between the hybrid outrigger and the column. The damper is engineered to be 'scarified' and yielded first under moderate to severe earthquakes in order to protect the structural integrity of important structural components of the hybrid outrigger system. As such, not brittle failure is likely to happen due to the severe cracking in the concrete outrigger wall. A comprehensive experimental research program was conducted into the structural performance of this new type of hybrid outrigger system. Studies on both the key component and overall system tests were conducted, which reveal the detailed structural response under various levels of applied static and cyclic loads. It was demonstrated that both the steel bracing and concrete outrigger wall are able to work compositely with the low-yield steel damper and exhibits both good load carrying capacities and energy dispersing performance through the test program. It has the potential to be applied and enhance the overall structural performance of the high-rise structures over 300 m under extreme levels of loads.

The mold transformers have been widely used in underground substations in large building and have some advantages in comparison to oil-transformer, that is low fire risk, excellent environmental compatibility, compact size and high reliability. In addition, the application of mold transformer for outdoor is possible due to development of epoxy resin. The mold transformer generally has cooling duct between low voltage coil and high voltage coil. A mold transformer made by one body molding method has been developed for small size and low loss. The life of transformer is significantly dependent on the thermal behavior in windings. To analyse winding temperature rise, many transformer designer have calculated temperature distribution and hot spot point by finite element method(FEM). Recently, numerical analyses of transformer are studied for optimum design, that is electric field analysis, magnetic field, potential vibration, thermal distribution and thermal stress. In this paper, the temperature distribution of 50 kVA pole mold transformer for power distribution are investigated by FEM program and the temperature rise test of designed mold transformer carried out and test result is analyzed compare to simulation data. In this result, the designed mold transformer is satisfied to limit value of temperature and the other property is good such as voltage ratio, winding resistance, no-load loss, load loss, impedance voltage and percent regulation.

This study was conducted to investigate the effects of a participatory rehabilitation program on sit-rise and rise-to-walk test performances, and perception and motor skills in adults with medically vulnerable individuals and, adults with developmental disabilities in particular. Seventeen adults with developmental disabilities participated in a participatory rehabilitation program using resistance bands and exercise balls, for 60 minutes once weekly over 13 weeks. Their performances were measured before and immediately after the intervention, and 12 weeks after. The findings were as follows. In the sit-rise test, the number of times rising from sitting posture increased after the intervention versus before, but the difference was not statistically significant. In the rise-to-walk test, the performance showed statistically significant difference over time, and the post-hoc test showed a significant effect after the intervention versus before. There was no significant difference in perception and motor skills. In sum, the participatory rehabilitation program positively influenced dynamic balancing related to functional activities but had no significant effect on perception and motor skills, which is related to motor control and motor learning. It is suggested that to increase the participation in community activities, reduce fall risk, and improve dynamic balancing abilities in adults with developmental disabilities, participatory rehabilitation programs should be utilized to promote the physical wellbeing.

This study was performed for application of Structural Health Monitoring system of Jamsil Lotte World Tower. Axial stresses of mega column and core wall are measured in the past 29 months for axial stress monitoring and evaluating predicted self weight. We use the midas gen program(FEM analysis program) with construction stage analysis mode to predict axial stress. 8 mega column axial stressmeters are installed at 21st floor and 4 core wall stressmeters are installed at 38th floor. Measurement data was obtained without creep and shrinkage effect.

The purpose of this study is to make a reasonable correction in construction stage through exact prediction of long-time differential column shortening that occurs in the high-rise RC building. For this, a self-developed program adopted PCA code is used to predict differential column shortening with sequential loading process. Using this program, the amount of the different column shortening of Amatapura Apartment in Indonesia is predicted and the effect is analyzed. From the result, the major factor affecting the shortening amount in columns is elastic strain and the effect of shrinkage is very small rather than creep. And maximun differential column shortening is appeared near the middle of the building.

Pulsed Er:YAG and $CO_2$ lasers induced temperature rise of tissue are studied using axisymmetric, two-dimensional, and transient Pennes' bio-heat equation or the implications of skin resurfacing. Model results indicate that Er:YAG laser induced temperature has much higher but more shallow distribution in tissue than that of the $CO_2$ laser because of its higher absorption coefficient. The increase of repetition rate does not affect the temperature rise too much because these laser modalities have much shorter heat diffusion time than the temporal length of each off-pulse. This model works as a tool to understand the photothermal effect in the laser-tissue interaction.

The greatest suction on the cladding of flat roof low-rise buildings is known to occur beneath the conical vortices that form along the roof edges for cornering winds. In a companion paper, a model of the vortex flow mechanism has been developed which can be used to connect the surface pressure beneath the vortex to adjacent flow conditions. The flow model is experimentally validated in this paper using simultaneous velocity and surface pressure measurement on a 1 : 50 model of the Texas Tech University experimental building in a wind tunnel simulated atmospheric boundary layer. Flow visualization gives further insight into the nature of peak suction events. The flow model is shown to account for the increase in suction towards the roof corner as well as the presence of the highest suction at wind angles of $60^{\circ}$. It includes a parameter describing vortex suction strength, which is shown to be related to the nature of the reattachment, and also suggests how different components of upstream turbulence could influence the surface pressure.
