  • This paper analyzed maximized the tension not by functional restriction but by psychological response inducement to form the tension of the horror game from the point of space time view. In order that, We arranged three major situations inducing the tension in the horror game and prepared space time analysis base. Pure fiction time of game itself is applied on game time excluding the time creating the cut-scene and the game space is organized with various combination of three space types. This analysis result can help horror game design by discovering the relationship between space time structure and tension forming of the horror game. These analysis results allow us to find guidelines for the time and space design of horror games that can be flexibly linked to game events and contexts by controlling the player's dynamic/static tension and temporary/continuous tension.

  • Moored floating platforms have great potential in ocean engineering applications because a mooring system is necessary to keep the platform in station, which is directly related to the operational efficiency and safety of the platform. This paper briefly introduces the technical and operational details of an optical sensor for measuring the tension of mooring lines of a moored platform in waves. In order to check the performance of optical sensors, an experiment with a moored floating platform in waves is carried out in the wave tank at Changwon National University. The experiment is performed in regular waves and irregular waves with a semi-submersible and triangle platform. The performance of the optical sensor is confirmed by comparing the results of the tension of the mooring lines by the optical sensor and tension gauges. The maximum tension of the mooring lines is estimated to investigate the mooring dynamics due to the effect of the wave direction and wavelength in the regular waves. The significant value of the tension of mooring lines in various wave directions is estimated in the case of irregular waves. The results show that the optical sensor is effective in measuring the tension of the mooring lines.

  • In this study, the effect of the change in cable tension on the track irregularity of railway ballasted track on a railway steel composite bridge was analyzed. As a result of comparing design and analysis results for cable tension, a difference of less than 3% was found, and analysis modeling was analyzed to reflect the design conditions well. In addition, the adequacy of the analysis modeling was demonstrated by comparing the field measurement results with the analysed cable tension. By considering the change in cable tension as a variable, the track irregularity of the railway steel composite bridge was analyzed. As a result of the analysis, it was analyzed that the total and one-sided cable tension change had a direct effect on the vertical irregularity among the track irregularity items. In addition, it was found that the change in track irregularity occurred in the section close to the cable position. It was analyzed that the change in cable tension had a more direct effect on track irregularity that had a direct correlation with the vertical direction rather than the lateral direction.

  • The tension leg platform (TLP) is a moored floating offshore structure whose buoyancy is more than its weight. The mooring system, known as tethers, is vulnerable to failure due to extreme (maximum and minimum) tensions. In the present study the reliability of these tethers under maximum and minimum tension (ultimate limit state) has been studied. Von-Mises failure criteria has been adopted to define the failure of a tether against maximum tension. The minimum tension failure criteria has been assumed to meet when the tethers slack due to loss of tension. First Order Reliability method (FORM) has been adopted for reliability assessment. The reliability, in terms of reliability index, and probability of failure has been obtained for twelve sea states. The probabilities of failure so obtained for different sea states have been adopted for the calculation of annual and life time probabilities of failure.

  • Maintaining track tension in tracked vehicles minimizes the excessive load on the tracks and prevents the peal-off of tracks from the road-wheel, and adequately guarantees the stable and improved driving of the tracked vehicles. However, the track tension cannot be easily measured due to the limitation in the sensor technology, harsh environment, etc. In this study, the track tension is estimated in realtime from the measurable signals of tracked vehicles and controlled based on a fuzzy logic controller. The proposed control system is implemented on tracked vehicles and its performance is evaluated under various driving conditions.

  • Tension headache is one of the most common form of headache. It may occur at any age, but is most common in adult and adolescents. One cause of this muscle contraction is a response to stress that induces changes and imbalance on autonomic nerve system. To cure tension headache, getting rid of psychological stress and anxiety have to do first. In this case, we described a 42 years old woman who diagnosed as tension headache. She complained headache with scruff pain, dyspepsia, nausea and coldness of toes. through oriental medical treatment(for example, acupuncture, herbal medicine ect.), her condition was improved.

  • This paper presents evaluation results of the tensile behavior of reinforced high strength concrete. The effects of different sizes of reinforcing bar, ranging from D22 to D29, on the formation of cracks was investigated. Two different strength concretes, $270kg/cm^2$ and $550kg/cm^2$, were used in the specimens to investigate the influence if concrete strength on tension stiffening. In the present investigation a method was developed to obtain reliable load-deformation behavior in tension. The experimental results show that (1)high-strength concrete members exhibited larger amounts of tension stiffening than the companion normal-strength concrete members, (2) as the bar diameter increases, the beneficial influence of high-strength concrete on tension stiffening is reduced.

  • To satisfy the more severe emission regulation and the demand of higher fuel economy in near future, the combustion pressure and power output of engines is going to be higher. In order to get the reduction of engine emission and the higher power, it is needed the reduction of the tension and width of ring pack. The lower tension ring and the manufacturing technology of cast iron thinner width ring can bring the friction reduction between the ring and liner during engine running. Therfore, the fuel economy can be achieved. Thereafter the engine emission can be reduced. In this study, by using a developed basic computer program that predicts the inter-ring pressure, the motion of ring and the inter-ring pressure through a crevice volume model between adjacent rings, and the oil film thickness and the friction computed by lubrication theories, it is to be examined the effect of friction reduction from piston ring pack equipped with thinner width ring and lower tension ring.

  • This paper describes effect of the bending strain of FRP tube for composite bushing with winding tension. The composite bushing can be formed, by adding silicone rubber sheds to a tube of composite materials. The FRP tube is internal insulating part of a composite bushing and is designed to ensure the mechanical characteristics. Generally the properties of FRP tube can be influenced by the winding angle, wall thickness and winding tension. As winding tension is increased glass contents was increased in the range of 70.4~76.6%. In the bending test, winding tension is increased residual displacement was decreased in the range of 14.0~12.2 mm.

  • In this paper, the axial force of high tension bolt is measured by using ultrasonic wave. In the case of the different materials the conclusion obtained are as follows : (1) The relation of the material quality of each high tension bolt and form(diameter or section area), and yield axial force can be observed. (2) As 0.1 is devided by the apparent elongation the measurement accuracy of high tension bolt can be achived. Also, it is founded that the Joint axial force of high tension bolt is determined by the yield force.
