  • An experimental study was conducted to develop a new base plate anchorage system for concrete filled tubular column under an axial load and a moment. The column was connected to a concrete foundation using ordinary deformed reinforcing bars that are installed at the inside and outside of the column. In order to investigate the moment resisting capacity of the system, horizontal cyclic loads are applied until the ultimate condition is reached with the axial load held constant. To derive a design method for moment resisting capacity, the reinforced concrete section approach was investigated with the assumption of strain compatibility. The results by this approach agreeded well with those of experiments when the bearing pressure of confined concrete and tangent modulus of steel bars are assumed appropriately. Also, it was found that the column interaction curve can be used to predict the yield strength of the base plate system.

  • The paper describes : ⅰ) Mathematical modeling of poloidal flux to define and calculate the tokamak plasma position based on a property of the plasma boundary which is always a flux surface. Controlling the plasma boundary position is therefore equivalent to equalizing the flux value on several points belonging to a curve tangent to the limiter. ⅱ) Experimental method for determining the outmost poloidal isoflux surface by a linear combination of measurements of magnetic fluxes, fields and field gradients, without requiring knowledge of internal plasma parameters for the feedback control, i.e., with neither corrections for variation in the poloidal beta and the plasma current distribution, nor compensations for the induced currents in the vacuum vessel. ⅲ) Feedback control algorithm for the regulation of plasma boundary position and its electronics hardware based on the PID control theory. ⅳ) Experimental results obtained from the RTP tokamak experiments using the present plasma control system.

  • Ferroelectric $BaTiO_3$/poly(vinylidene fluoride) (PVDF) nanocomposite films were successfully prepared by mixing $BaTiO_3$ nano-particles into PVDF solution dissolved in dimethylformamide under ultrasonification. The mixture was casted onto glass petri dish and then annealed at $100^{\circ}C$ for 12 h in vacuum dry oven. Crystal structure and surface morphology of the samples were analyzed by using an X-ray diffraction analysis and a field emission-scanning electron microscope, respectively. The relative dielectric permittivity and loss tangent were determined in the frequency range of 50 Hz to 1 MHz. For the $BaTiO_3/PVDF$ nanocomposites, the entire diffraction peaks match those indicated by standard $BaTiO_3$ perovskite structure. The FE-SEM image reveals the homogeneity of the $BaTiO_3$ nanopowder distribution and also predominant 0-3 connectivity. All results show that the dielectric properties of the nanocomposite films are desirable and the fabrication technique for preparing the $BaTiO_3/PVDF$ nanocomposites has a potential in the electronic applications.

  • The purpose of this study was to classify and analyze the somatotype of early middle-aged women and to provide its total data for clothing construction, and to improve clothing culture. The subjects were 277 early middle-aged women between 35 and 44 years old. Data were collected through anthropometry and photometry and analyzed by factor analysis, cluster analysis and discriminant analysis. The results were as follows; 1. The result of factor analysis indicated that 10 factors were extracted through factor analysis and those factors comprised 86.13 percent of total variance. 2. Using factor scores, cluster analysis was carried out and the subject were classified into 4 cluster. Type 1 is tall, slim, and X type in front. Type 2 is standard height and weight, short upper body, and hip-protruded on the side. Type 3 is standard height, thin, H type in front, back and hip are clearly protruded, and lean-back type on the side. Type 4 is standard height, fat, and long upper body. 3. According to the stepwise discriminant analysis, the 8 important iems is classifying the somatotype of early middle-aged women are as follows : bust girth, back length hip breadth-waist breadth, back protruded point depth(back)-back waist depth(back), hip tangent tilt, hip depth(back) waist dapth(back), bust depth-waist depth, and cervical hight, The correct classification rate for these items is as exact as 83.20%.

  • We have investigated dielectric polarization in organic light-emitting diodes using 8-hydroxyquinoline aluminum$(Alq_3)$ as an electron transport and emissive material. We analyzed the dielectric polarization of organic light emitting diodes using impedance. Impedance characteristics was measured complex impedance Z and phase ${\theta}$ in the frequency range of 40Hz to $10^8Hz$. We obtained dielectric constant and loss tangent (tan ${\delta}$) of the device. From these analyses, we are able to interpret a dielectric dispersion and dielectric absorption contributed by an interfacial and orientational polarization.

  • Deposition of PZT with UV laser ablatio was applied for realization of thin film sensors and actuators. Deposition rate of more than 20nm/min was attained by pulsed KrF excimer laser deposition, which is fairly better than those obtained by the other methods. Perovskite phase was obtained at room temperature deposition with Fast Atom Beam(FAB) treatment and annealing. Smart MEMS(Micro electro-mechanical system) is now a suject of interest in the field of micro optical devices, micro pumps, AFM cantilever devices etc. It can be fabricated by deposition of PZT thin films and micromachining. PZT films of more than 1 micron thickness is difficult to obtain by conventional methods. This is the reason why we applied excimer laser ablation for thin film deposition. The remanent polarization Pr of 700nm PZT thin film was measured, and the relative dielectric constant was determined to about 900 and the dielectric loss tangent was also measured to be about 0.04. XRD analysis shows that, after annealing at 650 degrees C in 1 hour, the perovskite structure would be formed with some amount of pyrochlore phase, as is the case of the annealing at 750 degrees C in 1 hour.

  • Shut-in pressure, reopenting pressure and fracture orientation are very important parameters to be evaluated precisely in in-situ stress measurement by hydraulic fracturing. Graphical methods on pressure-time curves have been conventionally used, even though these are seriously dependent on subjectivity of interpreters. So there have been many demands on new method to objectivity in determining parameters. We have developed integrated hydrofracturing data processing program (HYDFRAC), based on nonlinear regression analysis and can be invoked under the Window graphical user interface. HYDFRAC consiste of three routines, that is shut-in pressure routine, reopening pressure routine, and fracture delineation routine. Each of routines include independent modules according to parameter determination methods. Its application to field tests ensured both objectivity and facility in determining of hydraulic fracturing parameters. Determining shut-in pressures at each pressurization cycles, we adopted the exponential pressure-decay method(EPD method), the bilinear pressure-decay-rate method (PDR method), and the tangent intersection method in order to find the pressurization-cyclic tendency of shut-in pressures. The estimated pressure by PDR method exists in the range of the upper and lower values by EPD method, and lies near to the upper value more than the lower. Being the pressurization cycle increased, the range of upper and lower limits come to be stabilized gradually. By graphical superposition method and bilinear pressure-accumulated volume method, reopening pressures were determined. Vertical and inclined fracture attitudes were determined by applying the directional statistics and sinusoidal curve fitting, respectively. The results of evaluation of hydrofracturing parameters showed that statistical methods could enhance the objectivity better than graphical methods.

  • Archimedes showed that for a point P on a parabola X and a chord AB of X parallel to the tangent of X at P, the area S of the region bounded by the parabola X and chord AB is four thirds of the area T of triangle ${\Delta}ABP$. It is well known that the area U formed by three tangents to a parabola is half of the area T of the triangle formed by joining their points of contact. Recently, the first and third authors of the present paper and others proved that among strictly locally convex curves in the plane ${\mathbb{R}}^2$, these two properties are characteristic ones of parabolas. In this article, in order to generalize the above mentioned property $S={\frac{4}{3}}T$ for parabolas we study strictly locally convex curves in the plane ${\mathbb{R}}^2$ satisfying $S={\lambda}T+{\nu}U$, where ${\lambda}$ and ${\nu}$ are some functions on the curves. As a result, we present two conditions which are necessary and sufficient for a strictly locally convex curve in the plane to be an open arc of a parabola.

  • Thermoelectric power, dc conductivity, and the dielectric relaxation properties of $La_2NiO_{4.03}$ are reported in the temperature range of 77 K - 300 K and in a frequency range of 20 Hz - 1 MHz. Thermoelectric power was positive below 300K. The measured thermoelectric power of $La_2NiO_{4.03}$ decreased linearly with temperature. The dc conductivity showed a temperature variation consistent with the variable range hopping mechanism at low temperatures and the adiabatic polaron hopping mechanism at high temperatures. The low temperature dc conductivity mechanism in $La_2NiO_{4.03}$ was analyzed using Mott's approach. The temperature dependence of thermoelectric power and dc conductivity suggests that the charge carriers responsible for conduction are strongly localized. The relaxation mechanism has been discussed in the frame of the electric modulus and loss spectra. The scaling behavior of the modulus and loss tangent suggests that the relaxation describes the same mechanism at various temperatures. The logarithmic angular frequency dependence of the loss peak is found to obey the Arrhenius law with activation energy of ~ 0.106eV. At low temperature, variable range hopping and large dielectric relaxation behavior for $La_2NiO_{4.03}$ are consistent with the polaronic nature of the charge carriers.

  • There are two major factors which affect the cam design : the pressure angle and the radius of curvature, Cam shape will have an instantaneous radius of curvature at every point. Even though the design constraint of the pressure angle has been satisfied the follower may still not complete the desired contact motion. If the radius of the follower roller is larger than the concave(negative) radius on the cam it occurs the gap between the cam and the follower roller at the contact point. And also if the curvature of the pitch curve of the cam is too sharp the cam profile may be undercut. This paper proposes a new approach which uses the relative velocity of the follower roller parallel to the tangent line at the contact point on the cam surface for determining the pressure angle and the relative acceeration for determining the radius of curvature.
