Modular construction has been increasingly used for mid-to-high rise buildings attributable to the high construction speed, improved quality and low environmental pollution. The individual and repetitive room-sized module unit is usually fully finished in the factory and installed on-site to constitute an integrated construction. However, there is a lack of design guidance on modular structures. This paper mainly focuses on the evaluation of the initial stiffness of corrugated steel plate shears walls (CSPSWs) in container-like modular construction. A finite element model was firstly developed and verified against the existing cyclic tests. The theoretical formulas predicting the initial stiffness of CSPSWs were then derived. The accuracy of the theoretical formulas was verified by the related numerical and test results. Furthermore, parametric analysis was conducted and the influence of the geometrical parameters on the initial stiffness of CSPSWs was discussed and evaluated in detail. The present study provides practical design formulas and recommendations for CSPSWs in modular construction, which are useful to broaden the application of modular construction in high-rise buildings and seismic area.

In this paper, an electrostatic plate resonator with four corrugated bridges and another with four flat ones have been fabricated and tested by the electrostatic actuation. The resonators consist of one rigid plate and four bridges. Boron diffusion process and anisotropic etch process with EPW are mainly used to fabricate the resonators. The dynamic characteristics of the fabricated resonators are obtained by measuring the velocity of the center of the rigid plate using a laser vibrometer. The results show that the deflection of the resonator with the corrugated bridges is larger than the resonator with the flat ones. It has been confirmed that the corrugated structure releases the residual tensile stress in the bridges resulted from the diffusion process.

Not only is it important that the physical properties of the paperboards be appropriate for the intended end use, but the proper arrangement of the component in the built-up board is essential for attaining the optimum moment of inertia and the maximum load-carrying ability in a box. It is known to be impossible to estimate the stress distribution and deflection pattern by experiments or theoretical analysis when the corrugated fiberboard get the bending force. This study was tried theoretical and finite element analysis to analyze structural strength characteristics of corrugated fiberboards. If the linerboard and corrugating medium of every corrugated fiberboards is made from the same material, the location of neutral axis comes close to inside liner in order of DMA, DM, DMB, SW and DW, and moment of inertia of area decreases in order of DMA, DMB, DW, DM and SW. With the finite element analysis, deflection of applied loads represented SW, DM, DMA, and TW in the order of their value.

In this paper, the residual stress and young's modulus of the p+ thin film have been estimated by using the electrostatic resonators. The electrostatic plate resonator with four corrugated bridges and another with four flat ones have been fabricated. The deflection of the plate has been calculated under the induced tension and the residual stress and compared with the dynamic test results. When the young's modulus of the p+ silicon is 125 GPa. The estimated residual stresses of the flat and the corrugated bridges are about 15 MPa and less than 5 MPa, respectively. It has been confirmed that the corrugated structure releases the residual tensile stress resulted from the heavy boron diffusion process.

On the purpose of increasing resonant frequency without sacrificing quality factor as well as much decreasing dimensions, corrugated micro beam resonator based on polycrystalline 3C-SiC films is the applicable solution. In this work, appropriate corrugated structure is suggested to increase resonant frequency of resonators. Micro beam resonators based on 3C-SiC films which have a two-side corrugation along the length of beams were simulated by finite element method and compared to a same-size flat rectangular. With the dimension of 36x12x0.5 ${\mu}m^{3}$, the flat cantilever has resonant frequency of 746 kHz. Meanwhile, with this size but corrugation width of 6 ${\mu}m$ and depth of 0.4 ${\mu}m$, the corrugated cantilever reaches the resonant frequency at 1.252 MHz.

The paper presents the results and conclusions of dynamic load tests that were conducted on a road bridge over the Mokrzyca river in Wroclaw (Poland) made of galvanized corrugated steel plates (CSP). The critical speed magnitudes, velocity vibration, vibration frequency were determined in the paper. The dynamic analysis is extremely important, because such studies of soil-steel bridges in the range of dynamic loads are relatively seldom conducted. Conclusions drawn from the tests can be most helpful in the assessment of behaviour of this type of corrugated plate bridge with soil. In consideration of application of this type of structure in the case of small-to-medium span bridges, the conclusions from the research will not be yet generalized to all types of such solutions. The detailed reference to all type of such bridge structures would be requiring additional analysis (field tests and calculations) on the other types of soil-steel bridges.

We herein analyze and study the shielding effectiveness characteristic of an open conveyor-belt-type microwave dryer that is widely used in industry. In particular, the electromagnetic wave leakage problem of the open-type conveyor belt dryer using a general-purpose 2.45-GHz magnetron was improved by applying the corrugated rectangular waveguide. We conducted the electromagnetic simulation of the optimal shielding effectiveness characteristic with regard to the proposed waveguide structure to analyze the attenuation characteristics of the corrugated rectangular waveguide. To verify the shielding effectiveness characteristic of the fabricated corrugated rectangular waveguide by IEEE standard 299, we achieved the shielding effectiveness of more than 30 dB in the practical microwave dryer with the proposed corrugated rectangular waveguide.

A 90-deg phase shifter using corrugated square waveguide structure for 86 GHz band VLBI(Very Long Baseline Interferometry) dual-circular polarization observation has been developed. The 90-deg phase shifter was designed to have two corrugated walls inside the square waveguide so that the vertically and horizontally polarized waves at the output port have phase differences of $90{\pm}3.3$ deg across 85~115 GHz. Measurements show that the return and insertion losses for the both polarizations are better than 17 dB and 0.25 dB, respectively. The axial ratio is estimated to be less than 0.6 dB within the required frequency band.

Top-to-bottom compression strength of corrugated fiberboard boxes is partly dependent on the load-carrying ability of the central panel areas. The ability of these central areas to resist bending under load will increase the stacking strength of the box. The difference of box compression strengths, among boxes which are made with identical dimensions and fabricated with same components but different flute sizes, is primarily due to difference of the flexural stiffness of the box panels. Top-to-bottom compression strength of a box is accurately predicted by flexural stiffness measurements and the edge crush test of the combined boards. This study was rallied out to analyze the flexural stiffness, maximum bending force and maximum deflection for various corrugated fiber-boards by experimental investigation. There were significant differences between the machine direction (MD) and the cross-machine direction (CD) of corrugated fiberboards tested. It was about 50% in SW and DW, and $62%{\sim}74%$ in dual-medium corrugated fiberboards(e.g. DM, DMA and DMB), respectively. There were no significant differences of maximum deflection in machine direction among the tested fiberboards but, in cross direction, DM showed the highest value and followed by SW, DMA, DMB and DW in order. For the corrugated fiberboards tested, flexural stiffness in machine direction is about $29%{\sim}48%$ larger than cross direction, and difference of flexural stiffness between the two direction is the lowest in DMA and DMB.
