One of main issues of the FRP-concrete composite member is shear connection between FRP and concrete in order to secure composite behavior of FRP and concrete. To solve this problem, perfobond rib FRP shear connector is introduced for the mechanical shear connection. In this study, experimental study was carried out on the perfobond rib FRP shear connectors in order to develop the effective details of perfobond rib FRP shear connectors. Pull-out test specimens were manufactured with FRP plate with holes embedded in concrete block. Main parameters considered in this study were diameter of holes, ratio of spacing between the centres of holes to the diameter of holes, and thickness of FRP plates. Test results are discussed according to above parameters compared with other empirical expressions for steel perfobond rib connector.

Knitted fabric using acrylic/wool blended yarn (A/W) is increasingly used in the knit industry; subsequently, research on knitted fabric using A/W has increased. This study presents an scientific database from evaluating physical properties of $1{\times}1$ rib stitch using A/W. In this study,$1{\times}1$ rib stitch using A/W were made at various knitting tensions (dial no. 2-6) and the number (4-6) of ply yarn. The physical properties of $1{\times}1$ rib stitch using A/W were measured and analyzed. The density was in the range 5.5-6.4 wales/cm and 4.0-5.6 courses/cm, respectively. The density increased when less plying yarns and more knitting tension were added during knitting. The thickness was in the range of 1.592-2.362 mm and the tensile strength was in the range 32.75-53.63 Kgf/mm. The burst strength was in the range 107.8-139.2 $N/cm^2$. Thickness, tensile strength, and burst strength increased as the number of ply yarn and the knitting tension increased. The elongation and the recovery extension rate were in the range 102.29-112.13% and 96.4-97.7%, respectively. The heat retention rate was in the range 59.3-65.1%. There was no difference of the elongation and the recovery extension rate and the heat retention rate by the knitting tension and the number of the ply yarn. The permeability was in the range 170.5-396.3 $cm^3/cm^2/sec$. Air permeability decreased as the number of ply yarn and the knitting tension increased. The pilling properties were excellent for all $1{\times}1$ rib stitches.

This paper analyzed the effect of ribs on the breakdown characteristics when a metallic particle attaches on the various spot of GIS spacer, using electric field analysis. Also, it was compared with the experimental result of breakdown voltage characteristics for the spacer with a metallic particle on its various spot and with the shape, the length, and the thickness of the ribs varying. The results of electric field analysis show that the electric field concentration of the rib is more weakened than other parts and therefore it restrains the proceeding of streamer, which occurs at the breakdown. And it is verified through experiments that the breakdown voltage of the spacer with rib is higher than that of the spacer without rib. The breakdown characteristics depend on the shape, the length, and the thickness of the rib as well. Also, it is confirmed by the electric field analysis and the experimental results that the electric breakdown characteristics could be improved by rounding the rib edge.

This study evaluates behavior of the Y-type perfobond rib shear connector proposed by Kim et al. (2013). In addition, an empirical shear resistance formula is developed based on push-out tests. Various types of the proposed Y-type perfobond rib shear connectors are examined to evaluate the effects of design variables such as concrete strength, number of transverse rebars, and thickness of rib. It is verified that higher concrete strength increases shear resistance but decreases ductility. Placing transverse rebars significantly increases both the shear resistance and ductility. As the thickness of the ribs increases, the shear resistance increases but the ductility decreases. The experimental results indicate that a Y-type perfobond rib shear connector has higher shear resistance and ductility than the conventional stud shear connector. The effects of the end bearing resistance, resistance by transverse rebars, concrete dowel resistance by holes, and concrete dowel resistance by Y-shape ribs on the shear resistance are estimated empirically based on the push-out test results and the additional push-out test results by Kim et al. (2013). An empirical shear resistance formula is suggested to estimate the shear resistance of a Y-type perfobond shear connector for design purposes. The newly developed shear resistance formula is in reasonable agreement with the experimental results because the average ratio of measured shear resistance to estimated shear resistance is 1.024.

A case of schistosomus reflexes in Korean native female calf was observed macroscopically and radiographically. The results were summarized as follows. 1. The abdominal visceral organs were exposed. 2. The vertebral column bent laterally to the left, and the sacrum approached to the cranium by reflected caudal lumber vertebrae, presenting S-shaped lateral twisting of the vertebrae. 3. The right ribs reflected laterally and dorso-cranially from the 7th rib to 13th rib. The left ribs bent caudally from 8th rib to 13th rib. 4. The length of rudimentary 6th right rib was one half of normal size and the 7th right rib was one third. 5. The sternum was bifid split from the fourth sternebra through the xyphoid cartilage. 6. The diaphragm was intact and thoracic cavity was reduced in size. The lung and heart severely deformed in shape and size. 7. The liver markedly deformed in shape and thickness. 8. The pelvic cavity was reduced in size by compression laterally to the left. 9. The uterus horn, ovary, urinary bladder, and urethra were severely deformed in the shape and position.

Aluminium alloy have been used extensively as forging materials for aircraft components due to their high specific strength and corrosion resistance. A large portions of these materials are used as airframe components consisted of various combination of such Rib-Web structure. But the problem of high forging pressure and defect which were caused by narrow Rib thickness prevented from the favorable developments and laboratory scaled trials. In this study, optimization of forging variables such as corner radius and temperature in Rib-Wed structure were established. The 2 mm of corner radius minimized the forging pressure to get the fixed Rib height, which well coincided with theoretical result according to Upper-Bound analysis. And optimum workpiece temperature was below 450$^{\circ}C$ in consideration of grain growth and forging defects by local melting.

NHTSA has been conducting biomechanical studies to reduce inujuries sustained sustained during automotive collision. Furthermore, NHTSA added the regulation to the FMVSS 201, limiting the equivalent HIC(Head Injury Criterion) value under 1000. In the presont work, a methodology was developed for the optimum design of the A-pillar trim with rib-structures. The design variables for the rib-strucrures were the transverse spacing, the longitudinal spacing, and the thickness. The required sets of the design varibles were decided based on the design of experiments. The head impact simulations were carried out using the LS-DYNA3D, and the HIC(d) values were computed using the resulrs of the head impact simulation. The objective function was constructed using the response surface methed (RSM). When the obtained optimum values were not inside the region of interest, the design proceduers were repeated by changing the region of interest. Finally, an A-pillar trim with rib-structures, which resulred in HIC(d) value under 850 for 15 mph head-trim impact, was developed.

The pressure drop characteristics in a rotating two-pass duct with rib turbulators are investigated in the present study. Three ducts of different aspect ratios (W/H=0.5, 1.0 and 2.0) are employed with a fixed hydraulic diameter ($D_h$) of 26.7 mm. $90^{\circ}$-rib turbulators with $1.5mm{\times}1.5mm$ cross-section are attached on the leading and trailing surfaces. The pitch-to-rib height ratio (p/e) is 1.0. The distance between the tip of the divider and the outer wall of the duct is 1.0 W. The thickness of divider wall is 6.0 mm o. 0.225 $D_h$. The Reynolds number (Re) based on the hydraulic diameter is kept constant at 10,000 and the .elation number (Ro) is varied from 0.0 to 0.2. As duct aspect ratio increases, high friction factor ratios show in overall regions. The reason is that the rib height-to-duct height ratio (e/H) increases, but the divider wall thickness-to-duct width ($t_d/W$) decreases. The rotation of duct produces pressure drop discrepancy between the leading and trailing surfaces. However, the pressure drop discrepancy of the high duct aspect ratio (AR=2.0) is smaller than that of the low duct aspect ratio (AR=0.5) due to the decrement of duct hight (H).

The polarization characteristics of nano-scale grating-assisted polarization-insensitive coupler (GA-PIC) consisted of double sandwiched rib-type layers are evaluated in detail by using modal transmission-line theory (MTLT) based on equivalent network. To obtain the polarization-insensitive condition of GA-PIC, the coupling lengths as a function of the refractive index and thickness of sandwiched rib-type layer as well as the grating thickness and period are analyzed for quasi-TE and quasi-TM modes. The numerical results show that the GA-PIC with hundreds of nanometer scale is realized by properly choosing structural and material parameters of double sandwiched layers and grating.

The polarization characteristics of ultracompact polarization-insensitive directional coupler (PIDC) based on double sandwiched rib-type waveguide are explored in detail by using longitudinal modal transmission-line theory (L-MTLT). To obtain the polarization-insensitive condition of ultracompact directional coupler, the coupling length and coupling efficiency as functions of the refractive index and thickness of sandwiched rib-type waveguide are analyzed for quasi-TE and quasi-TM modes. The numerical results show that the ultracompact polarization-insensitive coupler with hundreds of micrometer scales is realized by properly choosing structural and material parameters of double sandwiched layers. Furthermore, the influence of fundamental mode profile, which is distributed in lateral waveguide of coupler, on the coupler performance has been investigated.
