  • The purposes of the present study were to investigate the factors of consumer dissatisfaction with backpacks and to examine if the levels of dissatisfaction with the factors differ significantly among the groups determined by demographic characteristics and purchase behaviors. The differences in the purchase behaviors of backpacks were also tested among the groups determined by demographic characteristics. Data collection was consisted of two pilot tests and the final test. The questionnaire was distributed to 40 students of universities in Seoul from July 1 to 13 in 2000 and 351 were usable. Data were analyzed by factor analysis, t-test, χ²analysis, MANOVA, ANAOVA, Duncan's multiple range tests using SPSS PC/sup +/ Program. Five factors were formulated : durability, ease-of-care/color fastness, dimensional stability, wearability and design. Subjects were most dissatisfied with the dimensional stability of backpacks. Different demographic characteristics and purchase behaviors resulted in significantly different levels of dissatisfaction with selected factors. Significant differences were also found in selected selection criteria and purchase behaviors among groups determined by some demographic characteristics.

  • This paper focuses on the stability analysis and stabilization for networked control system with neutral type of time-delay. By utilizing the delay partitioning idea, new stability criteria are proposed in terms of linear matrix inequalities(LMIs). These conditions are developed based on the Lyapunov-Krasovskii functionals. Based on the derived criteria, a sufficient condition for te solvability of this problem is obtained in terms of linear matrix inequality without decomposing the original system matrices. Also, it is shown that the proposed controller design method is general for networked control systems. Finally, illustrative examples are presented to show the applicability of the proposed method.

  • This study is carried out to analyze the stability of a container crane in according to the change of a wind direction and a machinery house location when a wind load of a wind velocity, 75m/s was applied on the state stowing a container crane by a heavy wind. A design wind load applied to this study was calculated in observance of 'Load Criteria of Building Structure'. And we analyzed the reactions of each supporting points according to appling a wind direction to an interval of $10^{\circ}\;in\;0^{\circ}{\sim}180^{\circ}$ and the structure stability of a container crane according to changing a machinery house. location occupying 15% of a container crane weight. From a results of this study, we presented a design criteria of an overturning disturbance equipment, tie-down.

  • Slope stability analysis is an essential part of rock slope design. For highly fractured rock, the limit equilibrium method (LEM) based slope stability analysis with a circular failure surface is often carried out assuming the rock mass behaves more or less as a continuum. This paper examines first, the applicability of the finite-element method (FEM) based shear strength reduction (SSR) technique for highly fractured rock slope, and second the use of Mohr-Coulomb (MC) failure criterion in conjunction with generalized Hoek-Brown (HB) failure criterion. The numerical results on a number of cases are compared in terms of the factor of safety (FS). The results indicated that the FEM-based SSR technique yields almost the same FSs from LEM, and that the MC and HB failure criteria yield almost identical FSs when the strength parameters for MC failure criterion are obtained based on the modified HB failure criterion if and only if value of the Hoek-Brown constant $m_i$ is smaller than 10 and slope angle is smaller than 1:1, otherwise MC failure criteria over-estimate the factor of safety.

  • The puopose of this paper is sto modify the current LBB criteria. The validity of current LBB criteria and current standard LBB analysis mehtod are evaluated using linear elastic fracture mechanics and elastic-plastic fracture mechanics. The results of evaluation demonstrate that the current LBB driteria are very conservative and some level of margins already exist in the standard LBB analysis method. Thus, the margin on load .root. and margin on crack size 2 can be eliminated to extend LBB application for the samller diameter pipe.

  • The scope of this paper is focused to the systems which have the time period and they should be necessarily studied in the sense of stability and design method of controller to stabilize the orignal unstable systems. In general, the time periodic systems or the systems having same motions during certain time interval are easily found in rotating motion device, i.e., satellite or helicopter and widely used in factory automation systems. The characteristics of the selected dynamic systems are analyzed with the new stability concept and stabilization control method based on Lyapunov direct method. The new method from Lyapunov stability criteria which satisfies the energy convergence is studied with linear algebraic method. And the numerical procedures are developed with computational programming method to apply to the practical linear periodic systems. The results from this paper demonstrate the usefulness in analysis of the asymptotic stability and stabilization of the unstable linear periodic system by using the developed simulation procedures.

  • In spite of adoption of Intact Stability Code Part A as mandatory, the accidents have been occurred frequently caused by dynamic stability. Therefore International Maritime Organization (IMO) is revising the Intact Stability Code to prevent the cause of accidents. The result of 4th meeting of Sub-committee on Ship Design and Construction (SDC), five mode of the cause was defined and establishing each draft regulations. We consider physical background, mathematical description, draft regulations for five failure mode and sample calculations for ships built by STX Offshore & Shipbuilding.
