  • In this paper, we propose a systematic hull form variation technique which automatically satisfies the displacement constraint and guarantees a high level of fairness. This method is possible through multiple parameter correction curves. The present method is to improve the hull form variation method based on parametric modification function and consists of two sub-categories: SAC variation and section lines modification. For SAC variation, the utilization of two B-Spline curves satisfying GC1 condition led to the satisfaction of displacement constraint and high level of fairness at the same time. Section lines modification methods involves in using two fuctions: the first is the waterplane modification function combining two cubic splines. the other function is the sectional area modification function consisting of 2nd order polynomial over the DLWL(Design Load Waterline) and 3rd order polynomial below the DLWL, This function enables not only the fundamental U-V section shape variation but also systematically modified section lines. The present method is expected to be more useful in the hull form optimization process using CFD compared to the existing method.

  • Wind turbine structures are long slender columns with a rotor and blade assembly placed on the top. These slender structures vibrate due to dynamic environmental forces and its own dynamics. Analysis of the dynamic behavior of wind turbines is fundamental to the stability, performance, operation and safety of these systems. In this paper a simplied approach is outlined for free vibration analysis of these long, slender structures taking the soil-structure interaction into account. The analytical method is based on an Euler-Bernoulli beam-column with elastic end supports. The elastic end-supports are considered to model the flexible nature of the interaction of these systems with soil. A closed-form approximate expression has been derived for the first natural frequency of the system. This new expression is a function of geometric and elastic properties of wind turbine tower and properties of the foundation including soil. The proposed simple expression has been independently validated using an exact numerical method, laboratory based experimental measurement and field measurement of a real wind turbine structure. The results obtained in the paper shows that the proposed expression can be used for a quick assessment of the fundamental frequency of a wind turbine taking the soil-structure interaction into account.

  • In this study, graph product rules are applied to the dynamic analysis of regular skeletal structures. Graph product rules have recently been utilized in structural mechanics as a powerful tool for eigensolution of symmetric and regular skeletal structures. A structure is called regular if its model is a graph product. In the first part of this paper, the formulation of time history dynamic analysis of regular structures under seismic excitation is derived using graph product rules. This formulation can generally be utilized for efficient linear elastic dynamic analysis using vibration modes. The second part comprises of random vibration analysis of regular skeletal structures via canonical forms and closed-form eigensolution of matrices containing special patterns for symmetric structures. In this part, the formulations are developed for dynamic analysis of structures subjected to random seismic excitation in frequency domain. In all the proposed methods, eigensolution of the problems is achieved with less computational effort due to incorporating graph product rules and canonical forms for symmetric and cyclically symmetric structures.

  • In this study, to begin with, it was discussed to gather vocabularies which are expected to be vocabularies related to four fundamental rules of arithmetic and classify them according to kinds and groups, to demarcate vocabularies related to four fundamental rules of arithmetic for using in elementary school mathematics which are associated with addition, subtraction, multiplication, and division directly. Next, the basic vocabularies related to four fundamental rules of arithmetic were discussed. At this time, regarding vocabularies related addition, subtraction, multiplication, and division as coming from the verb add, subtract, multiply, divide respectively, vocabularies that contains the stem of each verb were considered as the basic vocabularies related to four fundamental rules of arithmetics. Following it, vocabularies which assist the operation and indicate the result of the operation were included, then, vocabularies related to four fundamental rules of arithmetic for using in elementary school mathematics were demarcated and presented according to the following criteria. First, a newly coined verb or derivative using the noun form of a certain verb as a root should not be used. Second, such vocabularies of which examples do not exist or rarely exist in textbooks/workbooks should not be used, even though they are registered in mathematics glossary book published by ministry of education or Korean dictionary published by the national institute of Korean language. Third, vocabularies which are not replaceable and vocabularies which have some didactical reasons for using them should be used.

  • With the continuous increase of span lengths, modern bridges are becoming much more flexible and more prone to flutter under wind excitations. A reasonable probabilistic flutter analysis of long-span bridges involving random and uncertain variables may have to be taken into consideration. This paper presents a method for estimating the reliability index and failure probability due to flutter, which considers the very important variables including the extreme wind velocity at bridge site, damping ratio, mathematical modeling, and flutter derivatives. The Aizhai Bridge in China is selected as an example to demonstrate the numerical procedure for the flutter reliability analysis. In the presented method, the joint probability density function of wind speed and wind direction at the deck level of the bridge is first established. Then, based on the fundamental theories of structural reliability, the reliability index and failure probability due to flutter of the Aizhai Bridge is investigated by applying the Monte Carlo method and the first order reliability method (FORM). The probabilistic flutter analysis can provide a guideline in the design of long-span bridges and the results show that the structural damping and flutter derivatives have significant effects on the flutter reliability, more accurate and reliable data of which is needed.

  • As our lifestyles have changed due to rapid industrialization and urbanization, new social and communication problems have been caused and there have been lots of discussion on regional communication. For communities to become alternatives with realistic meanings in this changed society, considerations on social and spatial conditions are needed. Therefore, public space which works as a device of physical environment for activation of communities needs more active changes which encourages social communication. In respect to the activation of communities, the following suggestions are given: First, physical devices of a urban plaza should be arranged to support various programs presented along with consideration of human behaviors as users. Second, fundamental facilities of the plaza should accommodate various activities through connections with programs and commercial space. Third, when cultural and historical characteristics of the community are understood, the plaza can form regionality and symbolism through artistic representation. And users can form the identity of community. Fourth, transportation facilities should be separated from or coexist with areas of passengers and the plaza should have its own identity through symbolic sculptures.

  • In the present study we consider the generalized rotational surfaces in Euclidean spaces. Firstly, we consider generalized spherical curves in Euclidean (n + 1)-space ${\mathbb{E}}^{n+1}$. Further, we introduce some kind of generalized spherical surfaces in Euclidean spaces ${\mathbb{E}}^3$ and ${\mathbb{E}}^4$ respectively. We have shown that the generalized spherical surfaces of first kind in ${\mathbb{E}}^4$ are known as rotational surfaces, and the second kind generalized spherical surfaces are known as meridian surfaces in ${\mathbb{E}}^4$. We have also calculated the Gaussian, normal and mean curvatures of these kind of surfaces. Finally, we give some examples.

  • This paper presents the effectiveness of cold weather concreting by applying both anti-freeze agent and insulating forms developed through previous study investigating insulating effects on the concrete and the strength gain. According to test results, in $-10^{\circ}C$ of air temperature, when euroforms are applied, the temperature of plain concrete drops below $0^{\circ}C$ and maintains its temperature during early 24 hours. However, when insulating forms are applied, the temperature of concrete keeps 8~$13^{\circ}C$ during first 24 hours. Insulating forms has better performance on insulating effects than existing euroforms. Concrete containing anti-freeze agent shows temperature rising effects about $1^{\circ}C$ compared to plain concrete. Strength gain of core concrete shows higher when insulating forms is applied.
