  • The presence of cracks changes the water content pattern during seepage through a cracked soil as compared to that of intact soil. In addition, several different crack networks may form in one soil type. These two factors result in a variation of water contents in the soil matrix part of a cracked soil during seepage. This paper presents an investigation of the effect of crack network representation on the water content of the soil matrix part of cracked soil using numerical models. A new method for the numerical generation of crack networks incorporating connections among crack endpoints was developed as part of the investigation. Numerical analysis results indicated that the difference in the point water content was large, whereas the difference in the average water content was relatively small, indicating the uniqueness of the crack network representation on the average water content of the soil matrix part of cracked soil.

  • It is well known that for a sequence a = ($a_0,\;a_1$,...) the general term of the dual sequence of a is $a_n\;=\;c_0\;^n_0\;+\;c_1\;^n_1\;+\;...\;+\;c_n\;^n_n$, where c = ($c_0,...c_n$ is the dual sequence of a. In this paper, we find the general term of the sequence ($c_0,\;c_1$,... ) and give another method for finding the inverse matrix of the Pascal matrix. And we find a simple proof of the fact that if the general term of a sequence a = ($a_0,\;a_1$,... ) is a polynomial of degree p in n, then ${\Delta}^{p+1}a\;=\;0$.

  • It's not practical to collect all information at the entire degrees of freedom of finite element model. The incomplete measurements should be expanded for subsequent analysis and damage detection. This work presents the analytical methods to expand the incomplete static or dynamic response data. Using the expanded data, introducing the concept of residual force, and minimizing the performance index expressed as the stiffness matrix and its difference before and after damage, the variation in stiffness matrix is derived. Based on the difference in the stiffness matrix, the damage detection method of structures is also provided. The validity of the proposed methods is illustrated in a numerical application, the numerical results are analyzed for applications, and the applicability of both methods is investigated.

  • Curved beam elements with two nodes based on shallow beam geometry and strain interpolations are employed in eigenvalue analysis. In these elements, the displacement interpolation functions and mass matrices are consistent with strain fields. To assess the quality of the element mass matrix in free vibration problems, several numerical experiments are performed. In these analysis, both the inconsistent mass matrices using linear displacement interpolation function and the consistent mass matrices are used to show the difference. The numerical results demonstrate that the accuracy is closely related to the property of the mass matrix as well as that of the stiffness matrix and that the mass matrix consistent with strain fields is very beneficial to eigenvalue analysis. Also, it is proved that the strain based elements are very efficient in a wide range of element aspect ratios and curvature properties.

  • The effect of matrix phase (austenite, pearlite, martensite) on the low stress abrasion resistance in the chromium-carbide-type high Cr white iorn hardfacing weld deposites has been investigated. In order to examine matrix phase, a series of alloys with different matrix phase by changing the ratio of Cr/C system by heat treatment were employed. The alloys were deposited twice on a mild steel plate using self-shielding flux cored arc welding process. The low stress abrasion resistance of the alloys against sands was measured by the Dry Sand/Rubber Wheel Abrasion Test(RWAT). Even though formation of pearlite phase in the matrix showed higher hardness than that of austenite, there was no observable difference in wear resistance between the pearlite and austenite phase for the same amount of chromium-carbide in the matrix. On the other hand, the formation of martensitic phase,, from heat treated austenitic alloys (high content of Cr), enhanced wear resistance due to its fine secondary precipitates.

  • In this paper, we proposed a watermarking algorithm by using difference matrix between successive blocks in the transform domain. In the preprocessing, original image is decomposed with 1-level sub-bands by DWT. Then, all sub-bands which are excepted the low-frequency bands are set to normalize and make a reference image after transforming inverse DWT. The statistic variance of successive blocks between the original image and the reference image are calculated and finally, watermark is embedded considering the local characteristic with respect to the high-frequence components. Experimental results showed that the proposed approach is robust and better invisible in such attacks as filtering, JPEG and noise addition.
