In scissors deployable structure which could be easily removed by folding it, a method of curvature variation in the profile and the structural characteristics were examined. At first, the relation between the profile curvature and a eccentricity of joint in scissors members is presented by a formula and a graph. And then, the structural characters of scissors members with the curvature variation are presented by analysing a several models based on this relation. Also, a real modeling study is achieved in accordance with this composition method and the possibilities to be developed with the expected profile shape was examined.

Constructing the influence lines of forces of statically indeterminate structures is a traditional issue in structural engineering and mechanics. However, the existing kinematic method for establishing these force influence lines is an indirect or mixed approach by combining the force method with the theorem of reciprocal displacements, which is yet inconsistent with the kinematic method for statically determinate structure. This paper proposes the direct kinematic method in conjunction with the load-displacement differential relation for exactly constructing influence lines of reaction and internal forces of indeterminate structures. Firstly, through applying the principle of virtual displacement, the formula for influence lines of reaction and internal forces of indeterminate structure via direct kinematic method is derived based on the released structure. Then, a computational approach with a clear concept and unified procedure as well as wide applicability based on the load-displacement differential relation of beam is suggested to achieve conveniently the closed-form expression of force influence lines, and exactly draw them. Finally, three representative examples for constructing force influence lines of statically indeterminate beams and frame illustrate the superiority of the proposed method.

Agromonia pilosa Ledeb. has been used as a medicinal plant in traditional folk remedy. There are few reports on classification, physiology, ecology and morphological studies of Agromonia pilosa L. in Korea. Therefore, advanced approaches on study and development with this plant would be done urgently. Present stndy was carried out to gain basic information on genetic resources and variation with collected domestic landraces through RAPD analysis in Agromonia pilosa L. Forty two collections of Agromonia pilosa L. from nation-wide area including USA one were analyzed by RAPD test. Molecular marker size by amplified DNA band pattern ranged from 300 to 2,100bp. Among the collection, two landraces of Hadong and Cheonghak-dong showed close relation in genetic similarity. Minimum and maximum value by matrix of 1-F among 26 collected landraces were figured out as 0.365 and 0.827 showing mean value for 0.624, respectively. Those landraces were classified into two groups with cluster analysis by Nei and Li's formula from RAPD-analyzed values, and considerable genetic differences were recognized between two groups.

This paper presents three methods for ship hull form improvement on the basis of wave pattern analysis. These methods are primarily based on the assumption that a linear relation exists between the small difference of hull sections and the difference of the wave amplitude functions. The improved hull form of ship is made by superposing a thin hull form on that of a parent model. The first method use the simplification of framelines and Michell's Theory to the formula of wave resistance for superposed thin ship. The second method use tent functions and Michell's Theory to that. And the third is experimental method.

Experimental investigation into the behaviour of half-scale brick masonry panels were conducted under cyclic loading normal to the bed joint and parallel to the bed joint. For each cycle, full reloading was performed with the cycle peaks coinciding approximately with the envelope curve. Unloading, however, was carried out fully to zero stress level and partially to two different stress levels of 25 percent and 50 percent of peak stress. Stability point limit exhibits a unique stress-strain curve for full unloading but it could not be established for partial unloading. Common point limit was established for all unloading-reloading patterns considered, but its location depends on the stress level at which unloading is carried to. Common point curves were found to follow an exponential formula, while residual strains versus envelope strains can be expressed by a polynomial function of a single term. The relation between residual strain and envelope strain can be used to determine the stress level at which deterioration due to cyclic loading began.

In this paper, a non-asymptotic method is presented for solving singularly perturbed delay differential equations whose solution exhibits a boundary layer behavior. The second order singularly perturbed delay differential equation is replaced by an asymptotically equivalent first order neutral type delay differential equation. Then, Simpson's integration formula and linear interpolation are employed to get three term recurrence relation which is solved easily by Discrete Invariant Imbedding Algorithm. Some numerical examples are given to validate the computational efficiency of the proposed numerical scheme for various values of the delay and perturbation parameters.

The traffic accidents in large cities such as Pusan metropolitan city have been increased every year due to increasing of vehicles numbers as well as the gravitation of the population. In addition to the carelessness of drivers, many meteorological factors have a great influence on the traffic accidents. Especially, the number of traffic accidents is governed by precipitation, visibility, cloud amounts temperature, etc. In this study, we have analyzed various data of meteorological factors from 1992 to 1997 and determined the standardized values for contributing to each traffic accident. Using the relationship between meteorological factors(visibility, precipitation, relative humidity and cloud amounts) and the total automobile mishaps, and experimental prediction formula for their traffic accident rates was seasonally obtained at Pusan city in 1997. Therefore, these prediction formulas at each meteorological factor may by used to predict the seasonal traffic accident numbers and contributed to estimate the variation of its value according to the weather condition it Pusan city.

We consider multi-step quasi-Newton methods for unconstrained optimization. These methods were introduced by Ford and Moghrabi [1, 2], who showed how interpolating curves could be used to derive a generalization of the Secant Equation (the relation normally employed in the construction of quasi-Newton methods). One of the most successful of these multi-step methods makes use of the current approximation to the Hessian to determine the parameterization of the interpolating curve in the variable-space and, hence, the generalized updating formula. In this paper, we investigate new parameterization techniques to the approximate Hessian, in an attempt to determine a better Hessian approximation at each iteration and, thus, improve the numerical performance of such algorithms.

Opens the construction market recently, the construction industry of Korea has faced up to the barrier of globalism, and has been enforced to follow the various global standards in many aspects. Accordingly, it is expected that the test method related to the cement and concrete will be changed to conform to the international standards in Korea. Therefore, in this study, the strength tests are executed for the cement mortars, made by KS and ISO standards respectively, and then obtains such results. 1) The flow of the cement mortar according to ISO is about 8% higher ,than that of KS. 2) The flexural strength of the cement mortar according to ISO is about 10~20% higher than that of KS, and the compressive strength is about 30% higher. 3) The compressive strength relation between the cement mortars of KS and ISO may be expressed in the first-order recurrence formula as follows: Y = 1.33X - 8 In which X is the compressive strength(kgf/$\textrm{cm}^2$) of the mortar according to KS and Y is the compressive strength(kgf/$\textrm{cm}^2$) of the mortar according to ISO.

The purpose of this paper is to propose a method predetermining the 28-days strength of concrete. In this paper, it was predicted by regression analysis of the relation between 7-days and 28-days strength of fresh concrete and the strength of concrete early cured at $70^{\circ}C$ for rour hours after wet screening and addition of accelerating agent. It is concluded that the formula predeterming the 28-days strength of concrete using 25M/M rubbles from Sam-Cheok and sands from Yon-Gok, by the strength of concrete early cured for 4 hours is Y=-11.45 + 3.686X, where the coefficient of determination of regression-expression is r2=0.938, S=17.94(kg/$\textrm{cm}^2$).
