  • The water vapour permeability of clothing materials is a critical property for clothing systems that must maintain thermal equilibrium for the wearer. The evaporation of perspiration provides the means of cooling the human body. The perspiration should evaporate from the surface of the skin and pass as water vapour through the clothing, which must be permeable for comfort. The primary objectives in this study of the transfer through fabrics of water vapour are to measure this property in a quantitative manner appropriate to clothing systems and to provide an increased understanding of various types of fabric in water vapour transfer.

  • This paper describes the analysis of electric field distribution of high voltage polymeric bushing with structure. The high voltage bushing consists of FRP tube and housing made of LSR. The field control can be achieved by means of the design of such internal field shaper and top corona ring as grading electrodes. In accordance, the optimized design uses both internal and external elements for electric stress grading at critical parts of the bushing. Maxwell 2D simulator based on the boundary element method was also introduced in order to verify the reliability of the polymeric bushing.

  • The primary objective of this paper is to grasp many characteristics of buckling behavior of latticed spherical domes under various conditions. The Arc-Length Method proposed by E.Riks is used for the computation and evaluation of geometrically nonlinear fundamental equilibrium paths and bifurcation points. And the direction of the path after the bifurcation point is decided by means of Hosono's concept. Three different nonlinear stiffness matrices of the Slope-Deflection Method are derived for the system with rigid nodes and results of the numerical analysis are examined in regard in geometrical parameters such as slenderness ratio, half-open angle, boundary conditions, and various loading types. But in case of analytical model 2 (rigid node), the post-buckling path could not be surveyed because of Newton-Raphson iteration process being diversed on the critical point since many eigenvalues become zero simultaneously.

  • One of important problem, in large space structure, is to overcome the self-weight of roof structure. This problem can be solved with using tension members effectively. Thus the rapid progress of hybrid structure, that makes effective use of the means of settling, has a good effect on realizing the large space. These systems of hybrid structure have the advantages of light weight and its own internal redundancy, but are occurred unstable phenomenon such as bifurcation or snap-through buckling, when the load level is come to the critical point. Among the hybrid structure, cable dome is shown the strong nonlinearity of unstable phenomenon in accordance with the external force. Therefore, the purpose of this study is to analyze and verify comparatively the unstable phenomenon of the Geiger and Flower type cable dome structures under axismmetric load.

  • The solubilities of naphthalene in ammonia could be measured at various temperatures and pressures above the critical point of ammonia to represent the relationship between the solubility and the density of ammonia at desired temperature and pressure by means of a simple equation. This equation allows a calculation of the solubilities at higher and lower pressures. Using the equation, the solution energies, the solution entropies, and the second cross virial coefficients between naphthalene and ammonia have been determined to be compared with those in the case of the dissolution of naphthalene in supercritical carbon dioxide.

  • This paper presents the results of analytical and numerical analyses of the effects of performing a pressuremeter test or driving a pile in clay. The geometry of the problem has been simplified by the assumptions of plane strain and axial symmetry. Pressuremeter testing or installation of driven piles has been modelled as an undrained expansion of a cylindrical cavity. Stresses, pore water pressures, and deformations are found by assuming that the clay behaves like normally consolidated modified Cam clay. Closed-form solutions are obtained which allow the determination of the principal effective stresses and the strains around the cavity. The analysis which indicates that the intermediate principal stress at critical state is not equal to the mean of the other two principal stresses, except when the clay is initially isotropically consolidated, also permits finding the limit expansion and excess pore water pressures by means of the Almansi finite strain approach. Results are compared with published data which were determined using finite element and finite difference methods.

  • The aim of this study is to analyze critically the meaning of 'good instruction'. In this article, the researchers emphasized the activities of teaching and learning as two essential elements of good instruction. The antecedent studies on good instruction have limitations in that they regarded good instruction as an instrument rather than valuable activity itself. This study consisted of three parts. Firstly, the researchers tried to clarify the meaning of good instruction underlying antecedent studies on instruction. Secondly, the researchers tried to analyze characteristics of good insturction suggested by antecedent studies. Thirdly, the researchers attempted to define a new meaning of good instruction. A new meaning of good instruction should be defined in accordance with characteristics of three commonplaces composing instruction such as teaching activity, learning activity and good interactions between teacher and learner. Good instruction can be defined as followings. Good instruction means an instructional activity which can change the student's meanings of experience as a result of interactions among teacher, learner, and educational materials.

  • Cloud radio access network (C-RAN) refers to the virtualization of base station functionalities by means of cloud computing. This results in a novel cellular architecture in which low-cost wireless access points, known as radio units or remote radio heads, are centrally managed by a reconfigurable centralized "cloud", or central, unit. C-RAN allows operators to reduce the capital and operating expenses needed to deploy and maintain dense heterogeneous networks. This critical advantage, along with spectral efficiency, statistical multiplexing and load balancing gains, make C-RAN well positioned to be one of the key technologies in the development of 5G systems. In this paper, a succinct overview is presented regarding the state of the art on the research on C-RAN with emphasis on fronthaul compression, baseband processing, medium access control, resource allocation, system-level considerations and standardization efforts.

  • For high quality image acquisition, compensating air-vehicle motion is essential for airborne SAR system. This paper describes a timing control based motion compensation method for airborne SAR system. Efficient timing control is critical for SAR system since it maintains many timing signals and timing setting for the signals should be updated frequently. This paper proposes Timing Cluster method as an efficient means for timing control of SAR system. Moreover, this paper suggests a simple and efficient method to compensate air-vehicle motion based on the Timing Cluster method. Timing Cluster method enables SAR system to control the timing in a timing noncritical way just maintaining little amount of information.
