Concrete is one of the essential structural materials in the construction. But, concrete consists of many materials and is affected by many factors such as properties of materials, site environmental situations, and skill of constructor. Therefore, concrete mixes depend on experiences of experts. However, it is more and more difficult to determine concrete mixes design by empirical means because more ingredients like mineral and chemical admixtures are included. Artificial Neural Networks(ANN) are a mimic models of human brain to solve a complex nonlinear problem. They are powerful pattern recognizers and classifiers, also their computing abilities have been proven in the fields of prediction, estimation and pattern recognition. Here, among them, the back propagation network and radial basis function network are used. Compositions of high-performance concrete mixes are eight components(water, cement, fine aggregate, coarse aggregate, fly ash, silica fume, superplasticizer and air-entrainer). Compressive strength and slump are measured. The results show that neural networks are proper tools to minimize the uncertainties of the design of concrete mixtures.

The aim of this paper is to develop a high stable measuring device for radioactive pulses. The device consists of a high voltage supply unit using a fly-back converter principle, and a pulse detection unit for gamma-rays and neutrons. The high voltage supply unit designed can generate DC voltage up to 1,500v at 5V-input, and have a series voltage regulator to maintain the output voltage constantly, resulting in less than 1.63% of voltage regulation. The pulse detection parts consists of an active integrator, a pole-zero circuit, and a 3-stage amplifier of 60 dB, and its frequency bandwidth is from 37 Hz to 300 kHz. From the experimental results, it is confirmed that the measuring device can count at least 10,000 pulses in a second.

This paper presents a new isolated soft-switching bidirectional buck-boost inverter for fuel cell applications. The buck-boost inverter combines an isolated DC-DC converter with a conventional inverter to implement buck-boost DC-DC and DC-AC conversion. The main switches achieve zero voltage switching and zero current switching by using a novel synchronous switching SVPWM and the volume of the transformer in the forward and fly-back mode is also minimized. This inverter is suitable for wide input voltage applications due to its high efficiency under all conditions. An active clamping circuit reduces the switch's spike voltage and regenerates the energy stored in the leakage inductance of the transformer; therefore, the overall efficiency is improved. This paper presents the operating principle, a theoretical analysis and design guidelines. Simulation and experimental results have validated the characteristics of the buck-boost inverter.

Simultaneous optimization of trusses which concurrently takes into account design variables related to the size, shape and topology of the structure is recognized as highly complex optimization problems. In this class of optimization problems, it is possible to encounter several unstable mechanisms throughout the solution process. However, to obtain a feasible solution, these unstable mechanisms somehow should be rejected from the set of candidate solutions. This study proposes triangular unit based method (TUBM) instead of ground structure method, which is conventionally used in the topology optimization, to decrease the complexity of search space of simultaneous optimization of the planar truss structures. TUBM considers stability of the triangular units for 2 dimensional truss systems. In addition, integrated particle swarm optimizer (iPSO) strengthened with robust technique so called improved fly-back mechanism is employed as the optimizer tool to obtain the solution for these class of problems. The results obtained in this study show the applicability and efficiency of the TUBM combined with iPSO for the simultaneous optimization of planar truss structures.

Thermal Exchange Optimization (TEO) is a newly developed algorithm which mimics the thermal exchange between a solid object and its surrounding fluid. In this paper, an improved version of the TEO is developed to fix the shortcomings of the standard version. To demonstrate the viability of the new algorithm, the CEC 2016's single objective problems are considered along with the discrete size optimization of benchmark skeletal structures. Problem specific constraints are handled using a fly-back mechanism. The results show the validity of the improved TEO method compared to its standard version and a number of well-known algorithms.

The task of measuring losses becomes more challenging with ever increasing efficiencies and operating frequencies in power electronics applications. Generally, the process of traditional switching loss calculation in flyback converter is very complicated. MOSFET drain-source voltage and current waveforms are needed to calculate switching loss. However, as we know in switched capacitor converter, switching loss can be easily calculated by charge and energy conservation law with known initial and final capacitor voltages. In this paper, the same method is applied to fly-back converter switching loss analysis to simplify calculation procedure.

본 연구의 목적은 실제 가동 장치에 연결된 전기집진장치의 제거효율을 향상시키기 위하여 주입되는 트리에틸아민 주입 조건에 대한 실제 장치의 효능을 평가하는 것이다. 국내 발전소에서는 주로 호주, 중국, 남아프리카 및 미국에서 수입되는 비스무스 석탄을 이용하는데 비록 이러한 수입 석탄의 종류에 따라 발생되는 비산재의 전기저항도값이 다소 차이가 있지만, 석탄 연소시 배출되는 비산재의 대표적인 전기저항도값은 $1{\times}10^{12}\;{\Omega}-cm$ 큰 것으로 나타났다. 이 때문에 국내 대부분의 적기집진기 가동시 백 코로나 문제가 빈번하게 나타난 것으로 확인되었다. 전기집진장치 출구에서 직접 측정된 분진의 농도, 매연도 및 분진의 전기저항도와 집진효율을 동시에 확인한 결과에 따르면, 트리메틸아민의 주입이 전기집진장치의 집진효율을 상당량 증가시키는 것으로 확인되었다. 트리에틸아민 주입 전에 비산재의 전기저항도값이 $1.9{\times}10^{12}\;{\Omega}-cm$이던 것이 15 ppm(순도 99.7%) 주입시 비산재의 전기저항도값이 $2.1{\times}10^{11}\;{\Omega}-cm$으로 감소하였다. 이러한 조건에서 연돌에서 배출되는 분진의 배출량은 대략 80% 정도 감소율을 나타내며 농도 대비 $70\;mg/Sm^3$ to $14\;mg/Sm^3$수준이었다.

The purposes of this study were to investigate kinematic parameters of racket head and upper extremities during squash back hand stroke and to provide quantitative data to the players. Five Korean elite male players were used as subjects in this study. To find out the swing motion of the players, the land-markers were attached to the segments of upper limb and 3-D motion analysis was performed. Orientation angles were also computed for angular movement of each segment. The results were as follows. 1) the average time of the back hand swing (downswing + follow-through) was 0.39s (0.24 s + 0.15 s). 2) for each event, the average racket velocity at impact was 11.17m/s and the velocity at the end of swing was 8.03m/s, which was the fastest swing speed after impact. Also, for each phase, 5.10m/s was found in down swing but 7.68m/s was found in follow-through. Racket swing speed was fastest after the impact but the swing speed was reduced in the follow-through phase. 3) in records of average of joints angle, shoulder angle was defined as the relative angle to the body. 1.04rad was found at end of back swing, 1.75rad at impact and it changes to 2.35 rad at the end of swing. Elbow angle was defined as the relative angle of forearm to upper arm. 1.73rad was found at top of backswing, 2.79rad at impact, and the angle was changed to 2.55rad at end of swing. Wrist angle was defined as the relative angle of hand to forearm. 2.48rad was found at top of backswing, 2.86rad at impact, and the angle changes to 1.96rad at end of swing. As a result, if the ball is to fly in the fastest speed, the body has to move in the order of trunk, shoulder, elbow and wrist (from proximal segment to distal segment). Thus, the flexibility of the wrist can be very important factor to increase ball speed as the last action of strong impact. In conclusion, the movement in order of the shoulder, elbow and the wrist decided the racket head speed and the standard deviations were increased as the motion was transferred from proximal to the distal segment due to the personal difference of swing arc. In particular, the use of wrist (snap) may change the output dramatically. Therefore, it was concluded that the flexible wrist movement in squash was very important factor to determine the direction and spin of the ball.
