A garter spring, which is a long, special, close-coiled extension spring with its ends joined to form a ring, is used in tulip contactor between vacuum circuit breaker and bus bar in switchgear. To carry short-time current and resist welding at the contact surface in the tulip contactor, the garter spring must transmits an uniform contact force to the contact surface through the contact chips arranged in the circumference of bus bar. In this paper, the system for measurement of the contact force by the garter spring is developed. Using the developed measurement system, the design of the connection structure including the garter spring is reviewed to obtain the uniform contact forces in all of contact chips.

In the displacement based finite element analysis of composite beams that consist of two Euler-Bernoulli beams juxtaposed with a deformable shear connection, the coupling of the displacement fields may cause oscillations in the interlayer slip field and reduction in optimal convergence rate, known as slip-locking. In this study, the B-bar procedure is proposed to alleviate the locking effects. It is also shown that by changing the primary dependent variables in the mathematical model, to be able to interpolate the interlayer slip field directly, oscillations in the slip field can be completely eliminated. Examples are presented to illustrate the performance and the numerical characteristics of the proposed methods.

This research has improved composite joint system of R/C column and steel beam developed at previous study. In this system, the shear force occurred at beam is transmitted by bearing resistance of stiffness and moment is resisted by tension capacity of coupling members. As the preliminary step of stress transfer tests of this system, welding performance test of coupling member such as round bar or square bar which has a role of moment transfer has been carried out. From the test, this element has a good welding performance and enough resistance capacity compared to design force.

The structural methodology in designing a transmission tower have been performed to assume a simple truss behavior. But there're quite differences between a simple truss behavior and a real one. A suitable explanation for a structural stability can be expressed as a semi-rigid connection instead of the assumed hinged connection. This study proposes an alternative structural analysis modelling strategy for the transmission tower design. Proposed element models are truss element model, beam element model, and combined beam-truss element model. The static finite element analysis shows that there's a moment distribution between a mainpost member and the other bracing member.

Nowadays, remodeling cases for some apartment like Hyundai through the support of government are reported. Conventionally, balcony and aisle are extended for additional private area or balcony which is supported by new frame is extended. In extension work at site, dowel bar is conventionally inserted in old concrete slab for connection with old and new slab, however, an examination for structural safety is rarely performed prior to construction, if ever, vertical load is only considered for structural analysis. When conventionally connected structures are exposed to earthquake, the old and new structures have individual earthquake behavior with different mode, which may lead the elimination of resistance to earthquake in new structures. As of this reason, new detailing connection system which can have light weight and sufficient ductility performance is developed for application to domestic extension works. Additionally, user manual and specification are also developed for fertilization of application for the developed technology.

In this study, nine reinforced concrete infilled frames involved bare frames were tested during vertical and cyclic loads simultaneously. This test programs were carried to investigate the horizontal strength and the crack propagation in variance with hoop reinforcement ratio. All specimens were modeling in one-third scale size. In this experimental program structural performance of reinforced concrete shear wall were focus at connection types. Based on the test results, the following conclusions are made. In the boundary column member of reinforced concrete shear wall, increasing the ratio of hoop bar in two or three times, in the fully babel type, the shear and horizontal strength of specimens were increased 1.1-1.2 times than that of fully rigid frame. And infilled shear wall specimen were increased 1.17-1.27 times than that. Fully rigid babel type shear wall specimens were increased 5.7~8.0 times, and infilled shear wall specimens were increased about 4.0~5.6 times than that of infilled shear wall specimens.

A flat plate-column connection is susceptible to brittle punching shear failure, which may result in the necessity of shear reinforcement. In previous, experimental tests were performed to study the capacity of slab-column connections strengthened with various shear reinforcement, and the capacity of the specimens with lattice reinforcement are superior to the others. In present study, to study for effects of details of lattice reinforcement, experimental studies was performed. Main parameters are the amount of lattice shear reinforcement, arrangement of lattice and the effect of flexural re-bar. And capacity of the specimen with small amount of lattice reinforcement was higher than the capacity of other shear reinforcement.

Let $D_0$, $D_1{\subset}\bar{R}^n$ be non-empty sets and let ${\Gamma}$ be the family of all closed curves which join $D_0$ to $D_1$. In this note, we introduce the concept of the mathematical conductance $C({\Gamma})$ of a curve family ${\Gamma}$ and examine some basic properties of mathematical conductance. And we obtain the inequalities in connection with capacity of condensers.

In this paper, we study the curvature of locally symmetric or semi-symmetric half lightlike submanifolds M of an indefinite Kenmotsu manifold $\bar{M}$, whose structure vector field is tangent to M. After that, we study the existence of the totally geodesic screen distribution of half lightlike submanifolds of indefinite Kenmotsu manifolds with parallel co-screen distribution subject to the conditions: (1) M is locally symmetric, or (2) the lightlike transversal connection is flat.

The main objective of this study was to examine structural behavior of reinforced concrete column and steel beam joint. composite specimens about 3/4 of the actual beam column connection assembly were tested by applying cyclic load through actuators. Test variables include face bearing plate(FBP), extended face bearing plate(E-FBP), VIR, U-bar and sub beam. There is not much differenced between specimens with sub beam and without sub beam. Test results also show that the joint strength of test specimen is close to the predicted strength by ASCE guideline.
