Interactions between hydrodesulfurization of thiophene and hydrodenitrogenation of pyridine and the kinetic analysis were studied over $Ni-W/\gamma-Al_2O_3$ catalysts and this study was made at temperatures ranging from 473-673 K and at total pressures ranging from 10-25 $\times 10^5$ Pa. Hydrodesulfurization of thiophene was inhibited by presence of pyridine at all temperatures studied, and the rate of pyridine hydrodenitrogenation was slower than that of thiophene hydrodesulfurization in the operating conditions. Pyridine hydrodenitrogenation was also inhibited by the presence of thiophene at low temperatures but was enhanced by the thiophene at temperatures higher than 613K. Thiophene reaction rate was determined by multiple linear regression analysis using Langmuir-Hinshelwood-Hougen-Watson model and the result was given to be $r = kP_T^p_H/(1+K_Tp_T+K_Pp_P)^2$. At each temperature, reaction rate constants and absorption equilibrium equilibrium constants were determined and the activation energy was 12.98 kcal/gmol from Arrhenius plot.

본 논문에서는 우선 순위 기반의 예약 코드 다중 접속 (P-RCMA) 프로토콜을 제안한다. P-PCMA는 기존의 RCMA 프로토콜의 음성 트래픽 성능을 개선한다. P-RCMA는 두 개의 전력 수준을 유지하고 패킷 전송을 위해 공유된 코드를 경쟁하는 시점에 트래픽의 전송 특성을 고려한다. P-RCMA는 기지국 수신 단에서 전력 세기에 따른 캡쳐 효과를 이용하여 데이터 패킷보다는 음성 예약 패킷에 우선순위를 부여한다. 성능 분석은 EPA(equilibrium point analysis) 방법과 시뮬레이션을 이용하고 성능 척도로 음성 패킷 손실 확률 (voice packet dropping probability) 과 평균 데이터 패킷 전송 지연 (average data packet transmission delay)을 사용한다.

This paper presents the results of a comparative study between FEM and LEM on slope stability analysis. For validation, factors of safety were compared between FEM and LEM. The results from the two methods were in good agreement suggesting that the FEM with the shear strength reduction method can be effectively used on slope stability analyses. A series of analysis were then performed using the FEM for various constitutive laws, slope angles, flow rules, and the finite element discretizations. Among the findings, the finite element method in conjunction with the shear strength reduction method can provide reasonable results in terms of factor of safety. Also revealed is that the results of FEM can be significantly affected by the way in which the type of constitutive law and flow rule are selected.

For the initial equilibrium states of cable stayed bridges, this study presents a method to determine initial cable forces through successive iteration of the cable forces to minimize the errors between target moments or displacements and result of nonlinear analysis. Stay cables are modeled by truss elements and least square method was used to minimize the errors. In the structural characteristics of cable stayed bridges, a large axial force is introduced in the pylon and stiffening girder so fictitious section areas are assumed to determine initial cable forces accurately. To verify usefulness and validity of the proposed algorithm, some numerical analysis has been conducted and compared with the existing study.

This paper presents the derivation of the generalized governing equations in theory of elasticity, their weak forms and the some applications in the numerical analysis of structural mechanics. Unlike the differential equations in classical elasticity theory, the generalized equations of the equilibrium and compatibility equations presented here take the form of integral equations, and the generalized equilibrium equations contain the classical differential equations and the boundary conditions in a single equation. By using appropriate test functions, the weak forms of these generalized governing equations can be established. It can be shown that various variational principles in structural analysis are merely the special cases of these weak forms of generalized governing equations in elasticity. The present weak forms of elasticity equations extend greatly the choices of the trial functions for approximate solutions in the numerical analysis of various engineering problems. Therefore, the weak forms of generalized governing equations in elasticity provide a powerful modeling tool in the computational structural mechanics.

This paper presents a method for the nonlinear analysis of beam elements subjected to the cyclical combined actions of torsion, biaxial flexure and axial forces based on an extension of the disturbed compression field (DSFM). The theoretical model is based on a hybrid formulation between the full rotation of the cracks model and the fixed direction of the cracking model. The described formulation, which treats cracked concrete as an orthotropic material, includes a new approach for the evaluation of the re-orientation of both the compression field and the deformation field by removing the restriction of their coincidence. A new equation of congruence permits evaluating the deformation of the middle line. The problem consists in the solution of coupled nonlinear simultaneous equations expressing equilibrium, congruence and the constitutive laws. The proposed method makes it possible to determine the deformations of the beam element according to the external stresses applied.

In this paper, a continuum-based design sensitivity analysis (DSA) method is developed for the weakly coupled thermo-elasticity problems. The temperature and displacement fields are described in a common domain. Boundary value problems such as an equilibrium equation and a heat conduction equation in steady state are considered. The direct differentiation method of continuum-based DSA is employed to enhance the efficiency and accuracy of sensitivity computation. We derive design sensitivity expressions with respect to thermal conductivity in heat conduction problem and Young's modulus in equilibrium equation. The sensitivities are evaluated using the finite element method. The obtained analytical sensitivities are compared with the finite differencing to yield very accurate results. Extensive developments of this method are useful and applicable for the optimal design problems incorporating welding and thermal deformation problems.

This paper presents a restart iterative approach for time-domain flutter analysis of long-span bridges using the commercial FE package ANSYS. This approach utilizes the recursive formats of impulse-response-function expressions for bridge's aeroelastic forces. Nonlinear dynamic equilibrium equations are iteratively solved by using the restart technique in ANSYS, which enable the equilibrium state of system to get back to last moment absolutely during iterations. The condition for the onset of flutter instability becomes that, at a certain wind velocity, the amplitude of vibration is invariant with time. A long-span suspension bridge was taken as a numerical example to verify the applicability and accuracy of the proposed method by comparing calculated results with wind tunnel tests. The proposed method enables the bridge designers and engineering practitioners to carry out time-domain flutter analysis of bridges in commercial FE package ANSYS.

하천 복원 설계는 하천 수리 및 유사 수리학적, 하천 지형 및 형태학적, 그리고 생태환경적인 측면까지 모두 고려하여 인위적이지 않고 자연 상태에 가까운 평형하천의 형태를 갖도록 안정성을 최대화하면서 유지 관리 작업은 최소화하는 방향으로 수행해야 한다. 이를 위해서는 우선 평형하상 이론을 고려한 복원 하천 및 하도의 안정성에 대한 평가가 선행되어야 한다. 이러한 평형하상 이론 방법은 일반적으로 크게 해석적 방법 또는 경험적 방법의 형태로 발전되어 왔다. 본 논문에서는 청미천 구하도 복원이 실시되는 구간에 대해서 해석적 방법의 대표적인 Copeland 방법을 기본 모듈로 채택하고 있는 SAM 프로그램을 이용하여 안정하도를 설계하였으며 경험적 방법의 평형공식(하류하천 수리기하 공식)들을 이용하여 현재하도의 안정성을 평가하고 분석하였다. 해석적, 경험적 방법들로 분석된 결과들은 구하도 구간의 하도 형태 설계를 위한 자료로 활용하기 위한 것이다. Copeland 방법을 이용한 분석 결과, 청미천 대상구간의 안정하도는 현재하도보다 폭이 좁고 수심이 큰 그리고 경사가 완만한 하도인 것으로 나타났다. 또한 수리기하공식을 이용하여 복원 하천의 하폭 및 경사를 예측한 결과, 예측된 평형하도의 하폭은 현재 하도의 하폭보다 폭이 좁은 것으로 예측되었으며, 특히 Julien and Wargadalam 방법으로 예측한 결과 현재하도가 평형상태에 도달하기 위해서는 경사가 현재상태보다 더 완만해져야 되는 것으로 나타났다.

This paper presents quantitative analysis of a training system based on an unstable platform and a visual interactive system for improving sense of equilibrium. The training system consists of an unstable platform, a force plate, a safety harness, a monitoring device, and a personal-computer. To confirm the effects of the training system, fifteen young volunteers and five elderly volunteers went through a series of balance training using the system. During the training, we measured relevant parameters such as the time a subject maintain his or her center of pressure on a target, the time a subject moves his or her center of pressure to the target, and the mean absolute deviation of the trace before and after training with this system and training programs to evaluate the effects of the training. The results showed that the training system can successfully assess the gradual improvement of the postural control capability of the subject in the system and showed a possibility of improving balance of the subject. Moreover, the significant improvement in the postural capability of the elderly subject suggests that elderly subjects can benefit more from the training using the system for the improvement of sense of equilibrium.
