To predict rolling performance for a barge-type FPSO, the evaluation of correct nonlinear roll damping is critical. The square section of FPSO causes a considerable viscous damping effect. Free roll decay tests were carried out to estimate nonlinear roll damping for a barge-type FPSO, under three different conditions. The roll motion RAO was deduced from model tests in the wave condition of the wideband spectrum. In numerical calculation, the quadratic damping was considered as equivalent linear damping, using the results of free roll decay test. Tested roll performance in the JONSWAP wave spectrum was compared with numerical results. These two results shaw good agreement, in spite of the proximity of peak wave period and roll natural period.

The purpose of this research is to exam the attitudes of elderly people to dating. This research also investigates the differences of the elderly's attitudes to dating based on demographic, family relation, and social relation variables. Attitudes to elderly dating in this study included the perception, necessity, and difficulty of elderly dating. The sample consisted of 689 elderly Korean people. Data were analyzed by frequencies, mean, standard deviation, Chi-square test, t-test, and F-test. The results showed that there were statistically significant differences in elderly attitudes to dating according to demographic, family relation, and social relation variables. The findings of this study are described in the results section and the implications of these research findings are discussed.

The wind load on building surface is numerically investigated. The geometry of target building is a square cross section and aspect ratio (height (H) to width (d)) is 6. On building surface, the pressure was measured, compared to obtained value from numerical simulation. The numerical simulations were done using URANS with three different turbulence models such as v2-f model, k-${\omega}$model, and k-${\varepsilon}$ model, respectively. The v2-f model showed the best agreement with experimental data in simulating mean pressure coefficients on front, rear and side surface. But unsteady characteristics of pressure history measured on surface is shown a discrepancy between experiment and numerical simulation.

In this paper an experimental investigation of characteristics of developing transitional unsteady flows in a square-sectional 180。 curved duct are presented. The experimental study using air is carried out to measure axial velocity profiles secondary flow velocity profiles and entrance length by using Laser Do ppler Velocimeter(LDV) system. The flow development is found to depend upon Dean number dimensionless angular frequency velocity amplitude ration and cur-vature ratio. Of special interest is the secondary flow generated by centrifugal effects in the plane of the cross-section of the duct. The secondary flows are strong and complicate at entrance region. The entrance length of transitional pulsating flow is obtained to 120。 of bended angle of duct in this experimental conditions.

In this paper an experimenatal investigation of characteristics of developing ransitional steady flows in a square-sectional $180^{\circ}$ curved duct is presented, The experimental study is carried out to measure axial velocity profiles secondary flow velocity profiles and entrance length by using Laser Dopper Velocimeter(LDV) system. The flow development is found to depend upon Dean number and curvature ratio. Of special interest is the secondary flow generated by centrifugal effects in the plane of the cross-section of the duct. The secondary flows becomes strong from $120^{\circ}$ of bended angle on the duct. The entrance length of transitional steady flow is obtained to $120^{\circ}$ of bended angle of the duct in this experimental conditions.

A new electro-rheological squeeze film damper (ER-SFD) has been sealed with slotted piston rings which have electrodes at the inside of the constant gap. The slotted ER-SFD can prevent the problem of electric discharge which might be occurred in the previous configuration of an ER-SFD. The current paper presents the extraction of linearized dynamic coefficients within small orbit where these coefficients are controlled by the application of electric strength. Test rig has been modified to isolate the damper section for dynamic coefficient extraction. The results show that rotordynamic coefficients, damping and inertia terms, increase with increasing supply voltages, while stiffness coefficients decrease with increasing supply voltages. notating speed of rigid shaft does not affect these coefficients.

Sometimes open holes are required for the function and the weight reduction of structure and machinery. However, the serious stress concentration occurs because of the geometric discontinuity caused by the holes and cutting section. In this study, it is attempted to obtain the stress concentration coefficients of the inner surface of the hole boundary by changing the position and the shape of holes on the homogeneous isotropic plate. And the effects on the plate are investigated. The results show that the stress level becomes low and the distribution area widens the position of stress concentration changes as the ratio ah increases and change to a circle. And as the ratio a/l decreases, the stress concentration reduces.

A new blank design method is proposed to predict the optimum initial blank shape in the sheet metal forming process. The rollback method for blank shape design takes the difference between the deformed blank contour and the target contour shape into account. the minimization object function R is proposed. Based on the method, a computer program composed of blank design module, FE-analysis module and mesh generation module is developed. The rollback method is applied to square cup, reentrant cross section, L-shaped cup drawing process with the flange of uniform size around its periphery to confirm its validity. The optimum initial blank shape is obtained from an arbitrary blank shape after several modifications. Good agreements are recognized between the numerical results and the published experimental results for initial blank shape and thickness strain distribution. It is concluded that the rollback method is an effective and convenient method for an optimum blank shape design.

In this study a new simplified three-dimensional numerical method and the associated computer program have been developed to simulate the non-axisymmetric extrusion processes. The two-dimensional rigid-plastic finite element method under the generalized plane-strain condition is combined with the slab method. To define the die geometry for a non-axisymmetric extrusion. area mapping technique was used. Streamlined die surface was used to minimize the total extrusion pressure. Extrusion of square, hexagonal and 'T' section from round billet have been simulated and experimented with a model material. The computed results were in good agreement with the experiments in cross-sectional grid distortion. Computational results will be valuable for designing tool geometries and corresponding processes.

This study is designed to evaluate the effectiveness of teaching or studying programs, and thus to overcome the selectionbias in studies. Selection-bias derived from unobservable characteristics in the course of participants selection of the teaching or studying programs, in the case of cross-section data instrumental variable(IV) method and two stage least square estimation were suggested as an analysis tool. Panel data were analyzed by using both fixed effect in which individual effects are captured by intercept terms and random effect estimation where an unobserved effect can be characterized as being randomly drawn from a given distribution.
