The laser welding process was effective way to join the metals, because of the high productivity, the low distortion and the good weld quality. The fiber laser used the double-clad fiber architecture, the single element diode laser and the fully-spliced side pumping. It has the advantages in the views of the energy conversion efficiency, the beam quality, the robustness and the mobility. Recently, the thick material was welded with the high power laser in ship building or construction industry owing to the super bright fiber laser. In this study, we introduced the characteristics of high power fiber laser and its welding performance of thick gauge materials.

The primary aim of this study was to investigate the bond strength between reinforcement and concrete. Large sized nine beams, which were produced from concrete with approximately ${f_c}^{\prime}=30$ MPa, were tested. Each beam was designed to include two bars in tension, spliced at the center of the span. The splice length was selected so that bars would fail in bond, splitting the concrete cover in the splice region, before reaching the yield point. In all experiments, the variable used was the reinforcing bar diameter. In the experiments, beam specimens were loaded in positive bending with the splice in a constant moment region. In consequence, as the bar diameter increased, bond strength and ductility reduced but, however, the stiffnesses of the beams (resistance to deflection) increased. Morever, a empirical equation was obtained to calculate the bond strength of reinforcement and this equation was compared with Orangun et al. (1977) and Esfahani and Rangan (1998). There was a good agreement between the values computed from the predictive equation and those computed from equations of Orangun et al. (1977) and Esfahani and Rangan (1998).

We created a new design for an Nd-doped clad-pumped silica fiber laser to enhance the pump absorption and lasing efficiency for a butt-coupled, end-pumped scheme. Two concatenated adiabatic tapers formed within the laser cavity simultaneously removed higher order modes and were spliced to conventional single mode fibers. We theoretically analyzed mode propagation along the composite cavity and experimentally achieved continuous wave oscillation in the $LP_{01}$ mode at $1.06\;{\mu}m$ and a laser output power of over 820 mW with a slope efficiency of 27%.

In this paper, We have studied for guaranteeing the clear display of MPEG-2 video sequence when conduct splicing of MPEG-2 system streams. we focus on the PES domain splicing considering video sequence. And we wish to make a base on the TS or PS domain splicing considering video sequence. For that, first, we compared and analyzed problems that is raised when different two PES streams are spliced and effects that affect the video sequence. And based on this analysis, we have searched for methods that resolve the cause of problems that can be happened in the display of video sequence directly in PES domain.

Patchwork is a handicraft to put some certain shapes of small cloths together. Historical records of patchwork was discovered in Ancient Egypt as far back as BC 1000. Patchwork has been popular in the England and in around 13-$14^{th}$ century, European spliced little pieces of cloths for cold necessities, which made the handle of patchwork techniques gradually tend to decorative other than utility. Patchwork designs and techniques were taken across the Atlantic to North America with the early settlers in the mid-eighteenth century. In the early years of $20^{th}$ century, owing to the continuous technological advances, woman got more job opportunities that made patchwork technologies withered. Patchwork art continually evolved on the basis of historical and cultural factors to new styles, the famous Hawaiian, Stained Glass, Mola, Celtic, Victoria, Seminole and many other patchwork styles like that perfect embodied different art and cultures of different nations in different times.

In this study, new moment-resisting precast concrete beam-column joint is proposed for moderate seismic regions. It has the connection reinforcing bars, penetrated the joint and lap-spliced with the bottom bars of precast U-beam. To evaluate the performance for noncontact lapped splice, analytical works were conducted. Major variables for FEM analysis are the length of lap, the diameter of connection reinforcing bars, and the distance between lapped bars. The results of this study show thar the these variables has much influence on strength and deformation of lapped joint.

The effects of deformation properties on the bond of steel reinforcing bars to concrete are experimentally studies to expect the lap splice strength. Based on the previous research about relative rib area, lap splice strength between reinforcing bars and concrete can be improved by the control of rib height and spacing. This paper describes the testing and analysis of 15 beam-spliced specimens containing D25, D22, D19 with relative rib areas ranging from 0.066 to 0.162. The tests are analyzed to determine the effect of relative rib area(Rr) on the increase in bond strength. The tests also provide a preliminary indication of the effect of high relative rib area on the splice strength of uncoated bars.

Experimental results on splice strength of concrete and hybrid fiber reinforced cementitious composite are reported. Two series of tests, with six specimens each, were carried out. The research parameters were: bar diameter(D16, D22), lap splice length(50, 75, 100$\%$). The current experimental results demonstrated clearly that the use of hybrid fibers in cementitious matrixes increases significantly the splice strength of reinforcing bars in tension. Also, the presence of fibers increased the number of cracks formed around the spliced bars, delayed the growth of the splitting cracks, and consequently, improved the ductility of bond failure.

The objective of this research is to evaluate of seismic performance for reinforced concrete bridge piers with lap splices of longitudinal reinforcement steels using predict of nonlinear hysteric behavior. For the purpose, analytical trilinear hysteretic model has been used to simulate the force displacement hysteretic curve of RC bridge piers under repeated reversal loads. The moment capacity and corresponding curvature in the plastic hinge have been determined, and the enhanced hysteretic behavior model by five different kinds of branches has been proposed for modeling the stiffness variation of RC section under cyclic loading. The strength and stiffness degradation index are introduced to compute the hysteretic curve vary confinement steel ratio. In addition, the modified curvature factor has been introduced to forecast of seismic performance of longitudinal steel lap spliced and retrofitted specimens.

For each strand of wirerope sling, the international standards, ISO-8794, EN-13414 specify that the splice shall have five series of load carrying tucks. At least three of the load carrying tucks shall be made with the whole strand. And, the breaking force of the splice shall not be less than 70% or 80% of that of rope. But, There are no prescriptions for splicing types against different efficiency of each splicing type being used many workplace. In this study, analysis the work limit load efficiency according to variation of number of tucks and splicing types by experimental method As a result, the number of tucks 3+2 had the highest breaking efficiency.
