The procedure for the stress and displacement analysis of realistic viscoelastic materials by time domain boundary element method(BEM) has been discussed. The fundamental solutions and stress kernels have been obtained using the elastic-viscoelastic correspondence principle. The relaxation function is expanded in a sum of exponentials and the transformed fundamental solutions and stress kernels are inverted numerically into real time space. The proposed procedure requires a small computational effort and it is applicable in time domain boundary element analysis of realistic viscoelastic problems. Numerical results of example problem show the effectiveness and applicability of the proposed method.

Artificial Intelligence(AI) is that branch of computer science that deals with designing computer system that exhibit some of the characteristics associated with intelligence on human behaviors such as, understanding natural language, reasoning, solving problems, robotics and so on. The most developed component of artificial intelligence today is probably the expert system. An expert system is defined as a computer program that embodies organized knowledge concerning some specific domain of human expertise and programmed to perform convincingly as an advisory consultant in the given domain with self-explanation of reasoning on demand. This paper describes general concept of artificial intelligence and expert system and investigates applicability of expert system to ship design.

Security has become a major concern for many real world applications for wireless sensor networks (WSN). In this domain, many security solutions have been proposed. Usually, all these approaches are based on wellknown cryptographic algorithms. At the same time, performance studies have shown that the applicability of sensor networks strongly depends on effective routing decisions or energy aware wireless communication. In this paper, we analyses vulnerability and security mechanisms in wireless sensor networks.

Modeling busbar distribution system as a transmission line is an important subject of power line communication in the smart grid concept. This requires extraction of busbar RLGC parameters, accurately. In this study, a comparison is made between conventional and modified method for the aspect of optimum RLGC parameters extraction in the 1 MHz to 50 MHz frequency band. The usefulness of these methods is shown both in time and frequency-domain analysis. The frequency-domain analyzes show that the inherent power of modified method can eliminate the errors especially due to the discontinuities arise in conventional method. This makes the modeling approach of modified method more advantageous for the busbars due to its robustness against disturbances in the S-parameters measurements which cannot be eliminated with the calibration procedure. On the other hand, time-domain simulations show that the transmission line representation of the modified method is closer to physical reality by handling causality issues.

The paper reviews an improved continuous-wave (CW) terahertz (THz) imaging system developed for nondestructive inspection, such as CW-THz quasi-time-domain spectroscopy (QTDS) and interferometry. First, a comparison between CW and pulsed THz imaging systems is reported. The CW-THz imaging system is a simple, fast, compact, and relatively low-cost system. However, it only provides intensity data, without depth and frequency- or time-domain information. The pulsed THz imaging system yields a broader range of information, but it is expensive because of the femtosecond laser. Recently, to overcome the drawbacks of CW-THz imaging systems, many studies have been conducted, including a study on the QTDS system. In this system, an optical delay line is added to the optical arm leading to the detector. Another system studied is a CW-THz interferometric imaging system, which combines the CW-THz imaging system and far-infrared interferometer system. These systems commonly obtain depth information despite the CW-THz system. Reportedly, these systems can be successfully applied to fields where pulsed THz is used. Lastly, the applicability of these systems for nondestructive inspection was confirmed.

The differential quadrature (DQ) and teaching-learning based optimization (TLBO) methods are coupled to introduce a hybrid numerical method for maximizing fundamental natural frequency of laminated composite skew plates. The fiber(s) orientations are selected as design variable(s). The first-order shear deformation theory (FSDT) is used to obtain the governing equations of the plate. The equations of motion and the related boundary conditions are discretized in space domain by employing the DQ method. The discretized equations are transferred from the time domain into the frequency domain to obtain the fundamental natural frequency. Then, the DQ solution is coupled with the TLBO method to find the maximum frequency of the plate and its related optimum stacking sequences of the laminate. Convergence and applicability of the proposed method are shown and the optimum fundamental frequency parameter of the plates with different skew angle, boundary conditions, number of layers and aspect ratio are obtained. The obtained results can be used as a benchmark for further studies.

In the first paper of this research$^{(1)}$. a new time series method. directional ARMAX (dARMAX) model-based approach. was proposed for rotordynamics identification. The dARMAX processes complex-valued signals, utilizing the complex modal testing theory which enables the separation of the backward and forward modes in the two-sided frequency domain and makes effective modal parameter identification possible. to account for the dynamic characteristics inherent in rotating machinery. In this second part. an evaluation of its performance characteristics based on both simulated and experimental data is presented. Numerical simulations are carried out to show that the method. a complex time series method. successfully implements the complex modal testing in the time domain. and it is superior in nature to the conventional ARMAX and the frequency-domain methods in the estimation of the modal parameters for isotropic and weakly anisotropic rotor systems. Experiments are carried out to demonstrate the applicability and the effectiveness of the dARMAX model-based approach, following the proposed fitting strategy. for the rotordynamics identification.

A numerical technique is presented to calculate the motions of 6 d.o.f and mooring tensions for a catenary moored floating breakwater. The breakwater may be subjected to the 3-D combination of regular or irregular waves and stationary forces. The added mass coefficients at the infinitive frequency of input wave and the variations of damping and exciting force coefficients are calculated using the source distribution method. The coefficients are used to constitute motion equations in time domain which are solved by WiIson-$\theta$ method. The solutions agree quite well with either static displacement determined from Newton method under the stationary force only or 6 d.o.f determined from the frequency domain analysis under regular wave only. An example analysis is also done for a floating breakwater to demonstrate its applicability.

Modal parameters including resonant frequencies and mode shapes are heavily utililized in most damage identification throries for structural health monitoring. However, extracting modal parameters from dynamic responses needs postprocessing which inevitably involves errors in curve-fitting resonants as well as transforming the domain of responses. In this paper, the applicability of a damage identification method based on free vibration responses to the in-sevice responses is experimentally verified. The experiment is performed via applying periodic and nonperiodic moving loads to a simply supported beam and displacement responses are measured. The moving load is simulated using steel balls and a downhill device. The damage identification results show that the in-service response may be applicable to identifying damage in the beam.
