Solutions of the water pressure and groundwater inflow distribution along the tunnel perimeter in a half-infinite aquifer were investigated considering the conditions of the constant head and constant water pressure. It is assumed that the circular tunnel is buried in a fully saturated, homogeneous, isotropic and half-infinite space. Coordinate transformation technique was adopted, the problem of solving the control equations of water pressure in the Cartesian coordinate was transformed to that in the bipolar coordinate system, which can significantly simplify the derivation procedure of the water pressure and inflow distribution. The validation results show the accuracy and advantage of the proposed approach.

A numerical model to solve mild slope equation is developed by use of a preconditioned conjugate gradient method (PCGM). In the present paper. accurate boundary conditions and a better preconditioner are employed which are improved from the existing method of Panchang et al. (1991). Computational procedures are focused on weakly nonlinear waves, and emerged problems to make a more accurate model are discussed. The results of model are tested against laboratory results of both circular and elliptic shoals. Model results of wave amplitude show excellent agreement with laboratory data and thes thus model can be used as a powerful tool to calculate wave transformation in shallow waters with complex bathymetry.

This paper present a new disk-type piezoelectric transformer. The input side of the transformer has a crescent-shaped electrode and the output side has a focused poling direction. The piezoelectric transformers operated in each transformer's resonance vibration mode. The electrodes and poling directions on commercially available piezoelectric ceramic disks were designed so that the planar or shear mode coupling factor $(k_p,\;k_{15})$ becomes effective rather than the transverse mode coupling factor ($k_{31}$). A single layer prototype transformer, 26[mm] in diameter and $1.5{\sim}4.0[mm]$ thick, was fabricated, such as step-up ratio, power transformation efficiency and temperature were measured.

In this paper, geometrically nonlinear free vibration analysis of Mindlin viscoelastic plates with various geometrical and material properties is studied based on the Von-Karman assumptions. A novel solution is proposed in which the nonlinear frequencies of time-dependent plates are predicted according to the nonlinear frequencies of plates not dependent on time. This method greatly reduces the cost of calculations. The viscoelastic properties obey the Boltzmann integral law with constant bulk modulus. The SHPC meshfree method is employed for spatial discretization. The Laplace transformation is used to convert equations from the time domain to the Laplace domain and vice versa. Solving the nonlinear complex eigenvalue problem in the Laplace-Carson domain numerically, the nonlinear frequencies, the nonlinear viscous damping frequencies, and the nonlinear damping ratios are verified and calculated for rectangular, skew, trapezoidal and circular plates with different boundary conditions and different material properties.

Dynamical behaviors of one-dimensional (1D) nano-sized structures are of great importance in nanotechnology applications. Therefore, the torsional dynamic response of functionally graded nanorods which could be used to model the nano electromechanical systems or micro electromechanical systems with torsional motion about the center of twist is examined based on the theory of strain gradient nonlocal elasticity in this work. The mathematical background is constructed based on both strain gradient theory and Eringen's nonlocal elasticity theory. The equation of motions and boundary conditions of radially functionally graded nanorods are derived using Hamilton's principle and then transformed into the eigenvalue analysis by using Fourier sine series. A general coefficient matrix is obtained to assemble the Stokes' transformation. The case of a restrained functionally graded nanorod embedded in two elastic springs against torsional rotation is then deeply investigated. The effect of changing the functionally graded index, the stiffness of elastic boundary conditions, the length scale parameter and nonlocal parameter are investigated in detail.

In this paper, we propose a multi license plate recognition system using high resolution $360^{\circ}$ omnidirectional IP camera. The proposed system consists of a planar division part of $360^{\circ}$ circular image and a multi license plate recognition part. The planar division part of the $360^{\circ}$ circular image are divided into a planar image with enhanced image quality through processes such as circular image acquisition, circular image segmentation, conversion to plane image, pixel correction using color interpolation, color correction and edge correction in a high resolution $360^{\circ}$ omnidirectional IP Camera. Multi license plate recognition part is through the multi-plate extraction candidate region, a multi-plate candidate area normalized and restore, multiple license plate number, character recognition using a neural network in the process of recognizing a multi-planar imaging plates. In order to evaluate the multi license plate recognition system using the proposed high resolution $360^{\circ}$ omnidirectional IP camera, we experimented with a specialist in the operation of intelligent parking control system, and 97.8% of high plate recognition rate was confirmed.

The yeast S. cerevisiae DBY747 was transformed with E. C - S. C shuttle vector YIp5, YEp13 and YRp7 by the method of spheroplast. The transformation frequency of YEp13 and YRp7 in S. cerevisiae DBY747 was $1.2{\times}10^3$ and $1.0{\times}10^2$ per $10{\mu}g$ of DNA, respectively. The transformants with YIp5 plasmid incapable of autonomous replication in S. cerevisiae were not detected in the condition of this experiment, but YIpS plasmid expressed the gene carried on it when cotransformed with a helper plasmid such as YEp13 or YRp7 : autonomously replicating plasmid. When plasmids were used in covalently closed circular form, cotransformation frequency of Ylp5-YEpl3 and Ylp5-YRp7 was 210 and 95 per $10{\mu}g$ of DNA, respectively. In cotransformation of linear plasmids, transformation frequency of the same cohesive ends was similar to that of noncomplementary cohesive ends. Transformants by the cotransformation with circular plasmids have been shown much higher frequency than with linear plasmids in S. cerevisiae DBY 747. The mitotic segregation stability test suggested that the cotransformant of YIpS-YEp13 was more stable than that of YIpS-YRp7.

In this paper, using a pattern transformation triggered by deformation, we propose a porous structure that exhibits the characteristic of negative Poisson's ratio in both tension and compression. Due to the lack of torque for rotational motion of ligaments, the existing porous structure of circular holes shows positive Poisson's ratio under tension loading. Also, the porous structure of elliptic holes has a drawback of low durability due to stress concentration. Thus, we design curved ligaments to increase the rotational torque under tension and to alleviate the stress concentration such that strain energy is uniformly distributed in the whole structure. The developed structure possesses better stiffness and durability than the existing structures. It also exhibits the negative Poisson ratio in both compression and tension of 10% nominal strain. Through nonlinear finite element analysis, the performance of developed structure is compared with the existing structure of elliptic holes. The developed structure turns out to be significantly improved in terms of stiffness and durability.

In the present study, we proposed a new numerical wave tank model to analyze the vertical tension-leg circular floating bodies, using a 2-D Navier-Stokes solver. An IBM(Immersed Boundary Method) capable of handling interactions between waves and moving structures with complex geometry on a standard regular Cartesian grid system is coupled to the VOF(Volume of Fluid) method for tracking the free surface. Present numerical results for the motions of the floating body were compared with existing experimental data as well as numerical results based on FAVOR(Fractional Area Volume Obstacle Representation) algorithm. For detailed examinations of the present model, the additional hydraulic experiments for floating motions and free surface transformations were conducted. Further, the versatility of the proposed numerical model was verified via the numerical and physical experiments for the general rectangular floating bodies. Numerical results were compared with experiments and good agreement was archived.
