In this paper, the dynamic stress intensity factors of fracture mechanics are numerically computed in time domain using the FEM. For which the finite element formulations are derived applying the Galerkin method to the equations of motion in convolution integral as has been presented in the previous paper. To assure the strain fields of r$^{-1}$ 2/ singularity near the crack tip, the triangular quarter-point singular elements are imbedded in the finite element mesh discretized by the isoparametric quadratic quadrilateral elements. Two-dimensional problems of the elastodynamic fracture mechanics under the impact load are solved and compared with the existing numerical and analytical solutions, being shown that numerical results of good accuracy are obtained by the presented method.

A ship collision analysis by finite element method is performed considering the effects of mass and speed of ship and material and shape of structures to analyze the dynamic characteristics by ship collision. From this analysis, collision load-time history and inelastic deformation of ship and structures are obtained. Dynamic characteristics are different from each other according to interaction. between ship and structures. It seems that there are lots of factor to have effects on the ship-structures interaction. But because little information is available on the behavior of the inelastic deformation of materials and structures during the type of dynamic impacts associated with vessel impact, assumptions based on experience and sound engineering practice should be substituted. Therefore more researches on the interaction between ship and structures are required.

Stresses are solved for two parallel cracks in an infinite orthotropic plate during passage of incoming shock stress waves normal to their surfaces. Fourier transformations were used to reduce the boundary conditions with respect to the cracks to two pairs of dual integral equations in the Laplace domain. To solve these equations, the differences in the crack surface displacements were expanded to a series of functions that are zero outside the cracks. The unknown coefficients in the series were solved using the Schmidt method so as to satisfy the conditions inside the cracks. The stress intensity factors were defined in the Laplace domain and were inverted numerically to physical space. Dynamic stress intensity factors were calculated numerically for selected crack configurations.

It is necessary to express and evaluate annoyances, caused by noises, as a comparable quantity for establishing an efficient, economic and user-oriented noise control plan. In particular, cares should be taken for impact noises, since their dynamic properties are different from those of steady-state noises. A series of preliminary experiments were carried out to quantify the annoyances caused by floor impact noises. Results suggests that the characteristics of an impact source was more important factor than the properties of a floor structure for determining loudness and noisiness of subjects. Also, the heavy impact source was found to be felt louder and noisier by 5-6dB than the light impact source.

This paper attempts to explore the generic pitfalls of the traditional number-crunching methods adopted thus far for the forecast of newly emerging market trends, and present an alternative by introducingsystems thinking to the portable Internet service market as an example, followed by its rationale as a new tool for forecasting and some reasoning about why traditional methods are no longer appropriate. Most adoption models in general to forecast market trends have several limitations due to theirbasic assumptions and prospective. First, they fail to capture dynamic interactions among the factors involved over time, with implicit assumptions of 'unilateral causality' in that each factor contributes as a cause to the effect, i.e., causality runs one way; each factor acts independently the weighting factor of each is fixed, etc. Second, the number-crunching models have no way of taking into account the impact of delayed feedback often caused by introducing new policies and legislative changes on the whole system under investigation. Third, there is not a way to reflect the effect of competition by players.

This study pointed on the dynamic impact of AGT (Automated Guide-way Transit) bridge, due to concrete rail prominence. An experiment was done with 30 m P.S.C. bridge in AGT test line in Kyungsan. An artificial prominence with 10 mm hight, was installed at the mid span of concrete rail. And computer simulation was executed for the artificial prominence. As an experiment result, in the case of with prominence, bridge acceleration responses are increased 50% at the speed range of 20 km/h-60 km/h, and bridge displacement responses increased slightly. With these results, the prominence of concrete rail can be induce excess impact and vibration. And the computer program simulated much the same as experiments. So this program can be used for AGT bridge design and formulate the standard of concrete rail management.

This paper introduces a modified Karagozian & Case concrete model (K&C model) for the numerical analysis of a steel-fiber-reinforced concrete (SFRC) structure subjected to projectile impact. The original K&C model was calibrated to consider the effects of steel fibers accurately by modifying the strength surfaces and input parameters. Single element tests were then conducted and compared with uniaxial and triaxial compressive data to verify the modified model. With the application of a dynamic increase factor, the finite element model of the SFRC structure subjected to projectile impact was constructed. Thereafter, the applicability of the modified material model was examined by comparisons with the experimental results.

In this paper, a research for the dynamic wheel loads of a 3D vehicle model, which relates to a tire-enveloping model, is carried out. A single truck with four axles is modeled as a 10-D.O.F. vehicle by modeling both contact length of tires and pitching of tandem spring axles. The dynamic equations of the vehicle are obtained using the Lagrange's equation, the solution of the equations is calculated by Newmark-${\beta}$ method. The validity of the developed 3D vehicle model is demonstrated by comparing results obtained from the proposed method with those from experimental data. The maximum impact factors of tire force are evaluated according to the various step bumps on which a 24-ton dump truck is running.

In this paper, research for dynamic wheel loads of 3-D vehicle model considering tire enveloping model is carried out. Heavy trucks with 2-axles and 3-axles are modeled by 7-d.o.f. and 8-d.o.f., in which contact length of tire and pitching of tandem spring axles is considered. Dynamic equations of vehicle are derived by using the Lagrange's equation and solution of the equation is calculated by 5th Runge-Kutter method. The validity of the developed 3-D vehicle model is demonstrated by comparing the results obtained by the present method and experimental data by Whittemore. The maximum impact factors of tire force are calculated when vehicle models of 8ton and 15ton dump truck are running on the different class roads with 1.0km and on the various step bump.

The importance of process for repair and reinforcement of the bridge is increasing because of the lack of the fatigue load and stress, a lowering of the bridge load carrying capacity owing to impact and oscillation, deterioration on cultivation periods of the bridge, etc. Typically the experimenter values the bridge load carrying capacity by the real rating factor and response modification factor in bridge load rating through static load test and dynamic load test. But the error occurred in reliability of response modification factor in bridge load rating according to experience of experimenter. so tests of connecting probability theory and valuation of the bridge recently. The study is to compute the real load carrying capacity of the bridge and the rating factor and response modification factor on grade of the bridge, and calculate the probability of over-loaded truck load from Weigh In Motion(WIM) Data in FORTRAN programming applying to Monte-Carlo Simulation. At the result of this study, it is acquired that the new grade is computed for the probability of over-loaded truck load and surface inspection. The A grade is over 1.95, B grade is $1.55{\sim}1.94$, C grade is $1.26{\sim}1.54$, D grade is $1.14{\sim}1.25$, E grade is under 1.13 of rating factor, respectively.
