This paper studies the influence of parameters of a novel SMA helical spring energy dissipation brace on the seismic resistance of a frame structure. The force-displacement relationship of the SMA springs is established mathematically based on a multilinear constitutive model of the SMA material. Four SMA helical springs are fabricated, and the force-displacement relationship curves of the SMA springs are obtained via tension tests. A numerical dynamic model of a two-floor frame with spring energy dissipation braces is constructed and evaluated via vibration table tests. Then, two spring parameters, namely, the ratio of the helical spring diameter to the wire diameter and the pre-stretch length, are selected to investigate their influences on the seismic responses of the frame structure. The simulation results demonstrate that the optimal ratio of the helical spring diameter to the wire diameter can be found to minimize the absolute acceleration and the relative displacement of the frame structure. Meanwhile, if the pre-stretch length is assigned a suitable value, excellent vibration reduction performance can be realized. Compared with the frame structure without braces, the frames with spring braces exhibit highly satisfactory seismic resistance performance under various earthquake waves. However, it is necessary to select an SMA spring with optimal parameters for realizing optimal vibration reduction performance.

To improve the performance of the top-positioning space in buildings, we suggested the environment-friendly system integrating various design techniques in the previous paper. This work discussed to calculate the length of PV considering a part of metallic radiators for radiative cooling, an critical element of the whole system, for shading not to prevent the PV on roof from generating electricity. In the process of calculating the shading area, we used the geometrical relationship between the sun-rays and the variable roof. For general applications, we utilized DL, the ratio of the length of PV and that of metallic radiator on roof, as a design factor, and then used the maximum insolation and the specific insolation($200W/m^2$) to decide the distance off the axis of rotation. As a result, for DL, we found out the reasonable value of 1.0 with full covering, 1.2 with 90%, and 2.0 with 70% in PV covering.

It is well known that the quality of sample significantly determines the accuracy of soil parameters for laboratory testing. Although sampling disturbance has been studied over the last few decades, the theoretical investigation of soil disturbance due to sampling penetration has been rarely reported. In this paper, an analytical solution for estimating the soil disturbance due to sampling penetration was presented using cavity expansion method. Analytical results in several cases reveal that the soil at different location along the sample centerline experiences distinct phases of strain during the process of sampling penetration. The magnitude of induced strain is dependent on the position of the soil element within the sampler and the sampler geometry expressed as diameter-thickness ratio D/t and length-diameter ratio L/D. Effects of sampler features on soil disturbance were also studied. It is found that the induced maximum strain decreases exponentially with increasing diameter-thickness ratio, indicating that the sampling disturbance will reduce with increasing diameter or decreasing wall thickness of sampler. It is also found that a large length-diameter ratio does not necessarily reduce the disturbance. An optimal length-diameter ratio is suggested for the further design of improved sampler in this study.

최근 국내에 사용되고 있는 보강토옹벽 공법은 전면체의 재질, 보강재, 축조방법, 축조경사에 따라 수많은 종류가 제안되었으나 각 공법에 따른 설계방법이나 상세검토항목 등의 규정이 명확하지 않으며 집중호우에 따른 붕괴도 빈번하게 발생하고 있는 실정이다. 본 연구에서는 이러한 보강토옹벽의 설계에 있어서 좀 더 안정된 기술적 접근을 위해 설치높이별 단면을 가정하고 단일 강도의 보강재를 사용한 보강토옹벽의 인발파괴와 높이별 최적의 보강재 조합을 산정하고 산정된 각 단면에 대해서 보강길이비(L/H)에 따른 안전율 변화를 통하여 보강재의 최적 설계와 다단식 보강토옹벽의 최적 설계 그리고 보강재인 토목섬유의 재질에 따른 최적 길이비를 산정하여 제시하였다.

A recent study for tracing the profiles of supersonic axisymmetric Minimum Length Nozzle with uniform and parallel flow at the exit section, the stagnation temperature is taken into account. The aim of this work is to add optimization algorithm to the supersonic nozzle design in order to get the optimum nozzle shape. The comparisons of the nozzle contours based on the method of characteristics are presented. The specific heats and their ratio vary with the stagnation temperature when this temperature of a perfect gas increases. An application is made for air in a supersonic nozzle.

F-4E를 모선으로 하는 초소형 위성을 탑재할 수 있는 공중발사체 1단 부스터용 하이브리드 모터의 최적설계를 실시하였다. 설계변수는 포트개수, 초기 산화제 플럭스, 연소실 압력, 그리고 노즐 팽창비 등을 사용하였다. 또한 서로 다른 최적화 알고리듬의 적용 가능성을 검증하기 위하여 구배법 (GBM)과 유전자 알고리듬 (GA) 방법을 각각 사용하였으며, 목적함수의 선택에 따른 최적화 결과의 변화를 살펴보기 위하여 두 가지 종류의 목적함수 (모터 중량과 모터 길이)를 사용하여 그 결과를 상호 비교하였다. 최적화 알고리듬, 그리고 목적함수의 선택과 무관하게 거의 같은 설계결과로 수렴함을 확인하였다. 최적화결과로 설계요구조건을 만족하는 총중량 704.74kg, 1단 길이 3.74m의 하이브리드 모터를 설계 할 수 있었다.

본 논문은 마감시간을 가진 작업들의 온라인 스케줄링 문제를 다룬다. 작업들이 시간이 지남에 따라 도착하고 스케줄링 알고리즘은 앞으로 도착할 작업들의 정보를 미리 알지 못한다. 작업들은 동일한 수행시간만큼 실행되고 알고리즘의 목표는 마감 시간 안에 수행을 완료한 작업들의 수를 최대화하는 것이다. 온라인 알고리즘의 성능은 모든 작업 정보를 미리 알고 최적의 답을 줄 수 있는 최적 알고리즘의 성능과 비교하는데 두 알고리즘 성능의 비를 경쟁비라고 한다. 일반적으로 정보의 부재로 인해 온라인 알고리즘은 큰 경쟁비를 가진다. 따라서 온라인 알고리즘에 보다 많은 머신 또는 보다 빠른 머신을 제공했을 때의 경쟁비를 계산하는 자원추가 분석을 수행할 수 있다. 본 논문에서는 온라인 알고리즘이 보다 많은 머신들을 이용할 수 있을 때 최적 알고리즘과 같은 성능을 낼 수 있음을 보일 것이다.

Practially useful method of steel fiber for construction work is presented in this study. The most important purpose of this study is to develop a model which can predict mechanical behavior of the structure according to aspect ratio and volume fraction of steel fiber. Experiments on compressive strength, elastic modulus, and splitting strength were performed with self-made cylindrical specimens of variable aspect ratios and volume fractions. The experiment showed that compressive strength was not in direct proportion to volume fraction which doesn't seem to have great influence over compressive strength. However, splitting strength showed almost direct proportion to aspect ratio and volume fraction. Improvement of optimal efficiency was confirmed when the aspect ratio was 70. Experiments on flexural strength, fracture energy, and characteristic length were carried out with self-manufactured beams with notch. As a result, increases of flexural strength, fracture energy, and characteristic length according to increase of volume fraction tend to be prominent when aspect ratio is 70. The steel fiber improves concrete to be more ductile and tough. Moreover, regression analysis was the performed and predictable model was developed after determining variables. With comparison and analysis of suggested estimated values and measured data, reliance of the model was verified.

The main purpose of this study is to develop a Sprayed FRP repair and strengthening method, which is a new technique for strengthening the existing concrete structures by mixing carbon or glass shot fibers and the epoxy or vinyl ester resins with high-speed compressed air in open air and randomly spraying the mixture onto the concrete surface. At present, the Sprayed FRP repair and strengthening method using the epoxy resin has not been fully discussed. In order to investigate the material property of Sprayed FRP, this study carried out tensile tests of the material specimens which are changed with the combinations of various variables such as the length of shot fiber and mixture ratio of shot fiber and resin. These variables are set to have the material strength equal to one layer of the FRP sheet. As a result, the optimal length of glass and carbon shot fibers were derived into 3.8cm, and the optimal mixture ratio was also deriver into 1:2 from each variable. And also, the thickness of Sprayed FRP to have the strength equal to one layer of FRP sheet was finally calculated.

This paper presents an inventory model with partial backorders for the situation in which demand is deterministic, lead time follows normal distribution and back order ratio during the stockout period varies in proportion to the length of backorder period In this situations, an objective function is formulated to minimize a time-proportional backorder cast and a fixed penalty cost per unit lost. And then the procedure of iterative solution method for the model is developed to find optimal reorder paint and order quantity and a numerical example to illustrate the proposed method is presented.
