A comparison of predicted molar volume, vapor - liquid equilibrium, enthalpy of vaporization, droplet size history. and vaporization rates with several forms of equation of state has been made. The equation of state (EOS) investigated in this study includes the EOS given by Redlich - Kwong, the Soave - Redlich - Kwong, and the Peng - Robinson. Numerical results indicate that the Peng - Robinson EOS yields more accurate predictions of vapor - liquid equilibrium under a broader range of temperature and pressure conditions, especially at high pressures and near the critical point.

In this paper, the ultimate pullout capacity of a vertical plate strip anchors in cohesion-less soil is analyzed with the consideration of active and passive state of equilibrium in the soil. K$\ddot{o}$tter's equation is used to compute the active and passive thrusts (along with their point of application) which are subsequently used in the analysis in which, all the equation of equilibrium are properly interpreted. A comparison of the results with the experimental results vis-$\grave{a}$-vis available theoretical/empirical solutions shows that, the proposed analysis provides a better estimate of the pullout capacity.

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.

In this paper we have examined the linear stability of triangular equilibrium points in the photogravitational restricted three body problem when both primaries are triaxial rigid bodies, the bigger one an oblate spheroid and source of radiation. The orbits about the Lagrangian equilibrium points are important for scientific investigation. A number of space missions have been completed and some are being proposed by various space agencies. We analyze the periodic motion in the neighbourhood of the Lagrangian equilibrium points as a function of the value of the mass parameter. Periodic orbits of an infinitesimal mass in the vicinity of the equilibrium points are studied analytically and numerically. The linear stability of triangular equilibrium points in the photogravitational restricted three body problem with Poynting-Robertson drag when both primaries are oblate spheroids has been examined by A. Kumar (2007). We have found the equations of motion and triangular equilibrium points for our problem. With the help of the characteristic equation we have discussed stability conditions. Finally, triangular equilibrium points are stable in the linear sense. It is further seen that the triangular points have long or short periodic elliptical orbits in the same range of ${\mu}$.

The present paper deals with the analytical solution of a functionally graded piezoelectric (FGP) cylinder in the magnetic field under mechanical, thermal and electrical loads. All mechanical, thermal and electrical properties except Poisson ratio can be varied continuously and gradually along the thickness direction of the cylinder based on a power function. The cylinder is assumed to be axisymmetric. Steady state heat transfer equation is solved by considering the appropriate boundary conditions. Using Maxwell electro dynamic equation and assumed magnetic field along the axis of the cylinder, Lorentz's force due to magnetic field is evaluated for non homogenous state. This force can be employed as a body force in the equilibrium equation. Equilibrium and Maxwell equations are two fundamental equations for analysis of the problem. Comprehensive solution of Maxwell equation is considered in the present paper for general states of non homogeneity. Solution of governing equations may be obtained using solution of the characteristic equation of the system. Achieved results indicate that with increasing the non homogenous index, different mechanical and electrical components present different behaviors along the thickness direction. FGP can control the distribution of the mechanical and electrical components in various structures with good precision. For intelligent properties of functionally graded piezoelectric materials, these materials can be used as an actuator, sensor or a component of piezo motor in electromechanical systems.

A formulation which seeks steady-state equilibrium positions of constrained multibody systems driven by constant generalized speeds is presented in this paper. Since the relative coordinates are employed, constraint equations at cut joints are incorporated into the formulation. To obtain the steady-state equilibrium position of a multibody system, nonlinear equations are derived and solved iteratively. The nonlinear equations consist of the force equilibrium equations and the kinematic constraint equations. To verify the effectiveness of the proposed formulation, two numerical examples are solved and the results are compared with those of a commercial program.

The forty vapor-liquid equilibrium data of the binary system, HFC125＋Propane, were measured between 273.15 and 313.15 K at 10 K interval and the composition range 0.2∼0.75, respectively. Experiments were performed in a circulation type apparatus in which the vapor phase was forced through the liquid phase. The composition at equilibrium were mea-sured by gas chromatography, and its response was calibrated using gravimetrically prepared mixtures. Vapor-liquid equilibrium data were calculated by using CSD equation of state and compared with the experimental data.

Purpose - In Korea, there has been a recent trend that shows housing prices have risen rapidly following the International Monetary Fund crisis. The rapid rise in housing prices is spreading recognition of this as a factor in housing price volatility. In addition, this raises the expectations of housing prices in the future. These expectations are based on the assumption that a relationship exists between the current housing prices and expected housing prices in the real estate industry. By performing an empirical analysis on the validity of the claim that an increase in current housing prices can be correlated with expected housing prices, this study examines whether a long-term equilibrium relationship exists between expected housing prices and existing housing prices. If such a relationship exists, the recovery of equilibrium from disequilibrium is analyzed to derive related implications. Research design, data, and methodology - The relationship between current housing prices and expected housing prices was analyzed empirically using the Vector Error Correction Model. This model was applied to the co-integration test, the long-term equilibrium equation among variables, and the causality test. The housing prices used in the analysis were based on the National Housing Price Trend Survey released by Kookmin Bank. Additionally, the Index of Industrial Product and the Consumer Price Index were also used and were obtained from the Bank of Korea ECOS. The monthly data analyzed were from January 1987 to May 2015. Results - First, a long-term equilibrium relationship was established as one co-integration between current housing price distribution and expected housing prices. Second, the sign of the long-term equilibrium relationship variable was consistent with the theoretical sign, with the elasticity of housing price distribution to expected housing price, the industrial production, and the consumer price volatility revealed as 1.600, 0.104,and 0.092, respectively. This implies that the long-term effect of expected housing price volatility on housing price distribution is more significant than that of the industrial production and consumer price volatility. Third, the sign of the coefficient of the error correction term coincided with the theoretical sign. The absolute value of the coefficient of the correction term in the industrial production equation was 0.006, significantly larger than the coefficients for the expected housing price and the consumer price equation. In case of divergence from the long-term equilibrium relationship, the state of equilibrium will be restored through changes in the interest rate. Fourth, housing-price volatility was found to be causal to expected housing price, and was shown to be bi-directionally causal to industrial production. Conclusions - Based on the finding of this study, it is required to relieve the association between current housing price distribution and expected housing price by using property taxes and the loan-to-value policy to stabilize the housing market. Further, the relationship between housing price distribution and expected housing price can be examined and tested using a sophisticated methodology and policy variables.

유전 알고리즘에서 개체군은 지역 최적치에 빠질 수 있지만 긴 지속시간이 지난 후에는 여기에서 빠져나을 수 있으며 이러한 현상을 단속평형 (punctuated equilibrium)이라고 한다. 자연계나 컴퓨터 생태계 (computational ecosystems) 에서 관찰되는 단속평형은 확산 방정식 (diffusion equation)으로 잘 설명된다. 본 연구에서는 단순 유전 알고리즘을 이론적으로 분석하여 개체군의 움직임이 확산 방정식으로 표현될 수 있다는 것을 보인다. 또한 적합도 (fitness) 함수를 단위화 (unitation) 함수로 국한하면 이 분석을 더 구체화하여 유전 알고리즘의 주요 변수들이 이 방정식에 나타나도록 할 수 있다. 이 경우 확산 방정식에 대한 이론적 결과를 이용하면 지역 최적치에서 빠져 나오기까지의 지속시간이 개체군의 크기, 1/(돌연변이 확률), 그리고 지역 최적치의 깊이에 대해 지수적으로 증가한다는 것을 알 수 있다. 이러한 이론적 결과는 이중안정 지형 (bistable landscapes)에서의 시뮬레이션 결과와 일치한다.
