음성 인식에서의 dynamic time warp (DTW)은 반복적 계산을 필요로 하며, 이 계산을 수행하기에 합당한 PE cell의 설계는 매우 중요하다. 따라서 이 연구에서는 실시간 어휘 인식을 가능하게 하는 대사전 규모의 대어휘 고립단어인식용 DTW알고리즘을 하드웨어로 구현하기위한 PE(Processing Element)소자의 설계에 주안점을 두었다. 이 DTW용 PE 소자를 크게 세가지의 블록으로 대별된다. 즉, “MIN" block, "ADD" block 그리고 ”ABS" block인데, “MIN"은 축적 최소거리를 계산하기 위한 블록이고, ”ADD"는 이들 최소거리들의 합을 계산하는 블록, 그리고 “ABS"는 이러한 합에 의한 국부거리를 절대값을 구하기 위한 블록이다. 본 연구에서는 이들 세가지 전체 블록회로의 설계 및 검증을 행하였으며, 1.2 m CMOS N-well 설계 규칙에 EK라 전체블록에 대한 레이아웃을 행한 후 설계 규칙 검사(DRC)를 마쳤다.에 대한 레이아웃을 행한 후 설계 규칙 검사(DRC)를 마쳤다.

개별요소법은 절리가 발달한 불연속 암반의 모델링에 매우 유력한 수치해석적 방법이다. 또한 발파 후 큰 변위가 일어나는 단계에서의 모델링에도 효과적이다. 개별요소법에서 각 요소는 강체로 가정하고, 요소 간 약간의 중첩을 허용하여 접촉 변위로부터 상호 작용력을 계산한다. 개별요소의 경계로 정의되는 절리의 강성은 블록요소 상호 간의 거동을 결정하는 중요한 변수로서 변형의 크기와 파괴 양상에 영향을 준다. 그러나 요소 간 과도한 중첩으로 인한 수치해석적 불안정성을 방지하기 위해서 어떤 준정적인 문제에 있어서는 실제 절리 물성과 관계없이 임의로 선정된 절리 강성 값이 사용되기도 한다. 해석의 주된 관심사가 정밀도 높은 변형의 크기 예측이냐, 불연속체의 파괴 양상이나 파괴 후 파괴된 블록들의 거동 예측이냐에 따라, 절리 강성에 대한 입력 자료 값은 결과에 큰 영향을 주지 않을 수도 있고, 심각한 예측 오류를 가져올 수도 있다. 본 연구는 개별요소법을 이용한 수치해석 모델링에서 절리 강성 값이 해석 결과에 미치는 영향을 이해하고 입력자료 선정 지침에 도움을 주고자 수행되었다.

A very large shell-structure built in shipyards like ship hulls or offshore structures are joined by welding through full process. As the welding contains a high thermal cycle at a local area, the welded structures should be distorted unavoidably. Because a distorted ship block should be revised to the designed value before the next stage, the ability to predict and to control the weld distortion is an accuracy level of the yard itself. Despite the ship block size, several present thermal distortion methodologies can deal those sizes, but it is a different story to deal full ship size model. Even a fully constructed ship hull not remaining any welding can have an accuracy issue like outfitting installation problems. Any present thermal distortion methodology cannot accept this size for its recommended element size and the number. The ordinary welding breadth at erection stage is about 20~40 mm. It can hardly be a good choice to make finite element model of these sizes considering human effort and computational environment. The finite element model for structure analysis of a ship hull is prepared at front-end engineering design stage which is the first process of the project. The element size of the model is as fine as the longitudinal space, and it is not proper to obtain a weld distortion at the erection stage. In this study, a methodology is suggested that a weldment can be shrunk at original place instead of using structural finite element model. We cut the original shell elements at erection weld-line and put truss elements between the edges of cut elements for weld shrinkage. Additional truss elements are used to facsimile transverse weld shrinkage which cannot be from the weld-line truss element shrink. They attach to weld-line truss element like twigs from barks. The capacity of developed elements is verified through an accuracy check of erection process of a container vessel at the apt. hull. It can be a useful tool for verifying a centering accuracy after renew and for block-separating planning considering accuracy.

In this study, the shaking table tests of block systems on the rigid base have been performed to identify the seismic response and the dynamic behavior of the piled multi-block systems. To understand the characteristics of seismic response of piled multi-block systems, it is necessary to understand the dynamic behavior of single block system. Therefore, the skating table test of the single block system has been performed first. Moreover, by performing the shaking table tests of multi-block systems, the characteristics of dynamic behavior of piled multi-block systems have been analyzed. Also in this study, the distinct element method(DEM) has been used to analyze the nonlinear behavior of the piled multi-block systems. The results of the shaking table tests show that the response of the multi-block systems is very complicated. But by using DEM, the behavior of piled multi-block systems has been predicted and described well.

This paper contains the results of the study on the development of fracture and crack propagation in quasi-brittle materials, such as concrete or rocks, using the Discrete Element Method (DEM). A new discrete element numerical model is proposed as the basis for analyzing the inelastic evolution and growth of cracks up to the point of gross material failure. The model is expected to predict the fracture behavior for the quasi-brittle material structure using the elementary aggregate level, the interaction between aggregate materials, and bond cementation. The algorithms generate normal and shear forces between two interfacing blocks and contains two kinds of contact logic, one for connected blocks and the other one for blocks that are not directly connected. The Mohr-Coulomb theory has been used for the fracture limit. In this algorithm the particles are moving based on the connected block logic until the forces increase up to the fracture limit. After passing the limit, the particles are governed by the discrete block logic. In setting up a discrete polygon element model, two dimensional polygons are used to investigate the response of an assembly of different shapes, sizes, and orientations with blocks subjected to simple applied loads. Several examples involving assemblies of particles are presented to show the behavior of the fracture and the failure process.

This paper presents the details of finite element (FE) modeling and analysis of an external prestressing technique to strengthen a prestressed concrete (PSC) end block. Various methods of external prestressing techniques have been discussed. In the proposed technique, transfer of external force is in shear mode on the end block creating a complex stress distribution. The proposed technique is useful when the ends of the PSC girders are not accessible. Finite element modeling issues have been outlined. Brief description about material nonlinearity including key aspects in modeling inelastic behaviour has been provided. Finite element (FE) modeling including material, loading has been explained in depth. FE analysis for linear and nonlinear static analysis has been conducted for varying external loadings. Various responses such as out-of-plane deformation and slip have been computed and compared with the corresponding experimental observations. From the study, it has been observed that the computed slope and slip of the steel bracket under external loading is in good agreement with the corresponding experimental observations.

This study modeled in axisymmetric solid elements and analyzed the neighbourhood of the contact surface zone between liner and block in a diesel engine. The results of finite element analysis show that this model is deformed by bolt jointed load and pressure load and that stresses can vary much due to major dimensional changes in the joint area. Guidelines have been developed for selecting fillet radii and for the width of the contact area between liner and block.

Reinforced concrete column is an effective structural element to take advantage of high strength concrete. This paper presents an experimental and analytical strength of high strength concrete rectangular tied column sections under eccentric loading. The test variables are concrete strength, steel ratios, slenderness and eccentricity. The analytical results of the ACI's rectangular stress block, Zia's modified rectangular stress block, and a trapezoid block are compared with experimentally obtained data. It may be concluded that the trapezoid stress block provided the most reasonable column section capacities for high strength concrete columns.

Researchers have been long studying new building implementation methods to improve the quality of construction, reduce the time of assembly, and increase productivity. One of these methods is the use of modular pre-fabricated structural forms that are composed of a beam, column, short column, pyramidal end block, and connection plates. In this study, a new geometry for the pyramidal end block was proposed that helps facilitate the assembly procedure. Since the proposed configuration affects the performance of this form of connection, its behavior was evaluated using finite element method. For this purpose, the connection was modeled in ABAQUS and then validated by comparing the outputs with experimental results. The research proceeded through analyzing 16 specimens under monotonic and cyclic loading. The results indicated that using the pyramidal end block not only makes the assembly process easier but also reduces the out-of-plane displacement of the short column webs and the vertical displacement of beam end. By choosing appropriate section properties for column and beam, the connection can bear a rotation up to 0.01 radians within its inelastic region and a total of 0.04 radians without any significant reduction in its bearing capacity.
