  • The finite element modeling is used to study the buckling and postbuckling behavior of composite laminates with an embedded delamination. Degenerated shell element and rigid beam element are utilized for the finite element modeling. In the nonlinear finite element formulation, the updated Lagrangian description method based on the second Piola-Kirchhoff stress tensor and the Green strain tensor is used. The buckling and postbuckling behavior of composite laminates with a delamination are investigated for various delamination sizes, stacking sequences, and boundary conditions. It is shown that the buckling load and postbuckling behavior of composite laminates depend on the buckling model which is determined by the delamination size, stacking sequence and boundary condition. Also, results show that introduction of couplings can reduce greatly the buckling load.

  • Compulsive behavior is a sequence of movements usually derived from normal maintenance behaviors that are performed out of context in a repetitive, exaggerated, ritualistic, and sustained manner. In general, the treatment plan includes environmental management, behavior modifications, and psychotropic medications, however, the prognosis is varied. In this case report, a 9-year-old neutered male miniature poodle presented with a lifelong history of tail chasing and mutilation. Based on the behavioral history, observations, and physical examination, compulsive disorder was diagnosed. The dog's compulsive tail chasing behavior improved only with a combination of psychotropic medications, including fluoxetine, trazodone, and gabapentin.

  • In this paper, we attempt to estimate the state of a finite state system. In such system, we can observe time series data which has some significant behaviors corresponding to its system states. The behavior is characterized by feature parameters extracted from time series. Our thought is that the system output time series data is expressed as a sequence of behavior patterns which are represented by clusters in feature parameters space. An algorithm jointing fuzzy clustering to fuzzy finite state transition model is suggested.

  • Numerical studies were carried out to investigate the long-term behavior of late plates in basement, subjected to combined in-plane compressive and transverse loads. For the numerical studies, a computer program of nonlinear finite element analysis was modified by adding function of creep and shrinkage analysis. This numerical method was verified by comparison with the existing experiments. Parametric studies were performed to investigate the strength variations of flat plates with three parameters; 1) loading sequence of floor load, compression and time 2) uniaxial an biaxial compression and 3) the ratio of dead to live load.

  • Although there have been many studies on using finite automata for intrusion detection, it has been a difficult problem to generate compact finite automata automatically. In a previous research an approach to profile normal behaviors using finite automata was proposed. They divided the system call sequence of each process into three parts prefix, main portion, and suffix, and then substituted macros for frequently occurring substrings. However, the procedure was not automatic. In this paper we present algorithms to automatically generate intrusion detection automata from the sequence of system calls resulting from the normal runs of the programs. We also show the effectiveness of the proposed method through experiments.

  • It is considered that the application of advanced composite materials to the prostheses for the disables is important to improve their bio-mechanical performance. Particularly, energy storing foot prosthesis is mostly important to restore gait ability of the disables with low-extremity amputation since it could provide propulsion at terminal stance enhancing the disables ability to walk long distance even run and jump. Therefore, the energy storing spring of Prosthetic foot keel under cyclic bending moment use mainly of high strength glass fiber reinforced plastic. The main objective of this study was to evaluate the stacking sequence effect using the delamination growth rate(dA$_{D}$/dN) of energy storing spring in glass fiber reinforced plastic under cyclic bending moment. The test results indicated that the shape of delamination zone depends on stacking sequence in GFRP laminates. Delamination area(A$_{D}$) turns out that variable types with the contour increased non-linearly toward the damage zones.nes.

  • In this paper behavior of U-Channel Bridge (UCB) and the slab design considering construction sequence was studied. The segments of UCB are produced in the factory and transported to the site by trailers, and the segments are fabricated in the construction field. In this sequence the supporting conditions are changed. Four steps that were the segment precasting step, the segment carrying step, the segment placed on the erection beam step, and the completion step were chosen by supporting condition. In each step model using the frame and plate elements was proposed and structural analysis was performed. Four construction steps were to be considered in the process of slab analysis. The design method of slab was proposed considering construction sequence.

  • Transporting a large table using multiple robotic agents requires at least two group behaviors of homing and herding which are to bo coordinated in a proper sequence. Existing GP methods for multi-agent learning are not practical enough to find an optimal solution in this domain. To evolve this kind of complex cooperative behavior we use a novel method called fitness switching. This method maintains a pool of basis fitness functions each of which corresponds to a primitive group behavior. The basis functions are then progressively combined into more complex fitness functions to co-evolve more complex behavior. The performance of the presented method is compared with that of two conventional methods. Experimental results show that coevolutionary fitness switching provides an effective mechanism for evolving complex emergent behavior which may not be solved by simple genetic programming.

  • In an earlier development phase, the simulation technique is one of the key analysis methods for checking the correctness of system's functional requirements. In general, simulation is manually or randomly performed by executing state machine diagrams according to the requirement scenarios. Therefore, simulation is one of the most effort-consuming tasks. In this paper, an automatic simulation technique of state machine diagrams is provided according to the scenarios of the sequence diagrams. It is not easy to generate detailed simulation traces from sequence diagrams due to different abstraction levels between sequence diagrams and state machine diagrams. In order to adjust for different abstraction levels, state machine diagrams and sequence diagrams are transformed into LTS models and compositional analysis and transition reduction are performed. After checking behavior conformance between them, detailed simulation traces for the state machine diagrams are generated. These simulation traces are used not only for performing automatic simulation but also for assisting analyzers to reach a specific system state in order to guide further efficient simulation.

  • This paper investigates the change of structural characteristics of steel cable-stayed bridges after cable failure. Cables, considered as the intermediate supports of cable-stayed bridges, can break or fail for several reasons, such as fire, direct vehicle clash accident, extreme weather conditions, and fatigue of cable or anchorage. Also, the replacement of cables can cause temporary disconnection. Because of the structural characteristics with various geometric nonlinearities of cable-stayed bridges, cable failure may cause significant change to the structural state and ultimate behavior. Until now, the characteristics of structural behavior after cable failure have rarely been studied. In this study, rational cable failure analysis is suggested to trace the new equilibrium with structural configuration after the cable failure. Also, the sequence of ultimate analysis for the structure that suffers cable failure is suggested, to study the change of ultimate behavior and load carrying capacity under specific live load conditions. Using these analysis methods, the statical behavior after individual cable failure is studied based on the change of structural configuration, and distribution of internal forces. Also, the change of the ultimate behavior and load carrying capacity under specific live load conditions is investigated, using the proposed analysis method. According to the study, significant change of the statical behavior and ultimate capacity occurs although just one cable fails.
