An experimental research was conducted to investigate the strength of biaxially loaded short and slender reinforced concrete columns with high strength concrete. In the study, square and L-shaped section reinforced concrete columns were constructed and tested to obtain the load-deformation behaviour and strength of columns. The test results of column specimens were analysed with a theoretical method based on the fiber element technique. The theoretical ultimate strength capacities and the test results of column specimens have been compared and discussed in the paper. Besides this, observed failure mode and experimental and theoretical load-lateral deflection behaviour of the column specimens are presented.

A miniaturized bandstop filter (BSF) is introduced in this paper. The filter consists of one meander spurline and a pair of capacitively loaded stubs. The meander spurline with low resonant frequency and improved slow-wave factor exhibits excellent resonant bandgap characteristics which can be modeled by a longitudinally coupled resonator. The design of the proposed microstrip BSF is presented, and its performance is measured. Measurements show that there is a stopband from 2.3 to 5.6 GHz with $S_{21}$ less than -20 dB. The total length of this BSF equals 23 mm.

In this Paper, a new antenna(VHMDA) characteristics of half-circular/elliptical disc-loaded planar antennas with horizontally top-loaded small disc is studied by simulation and measurements with additional resonant structure. The transfer function characteristics of Gaussian pulse from the designed UWB transmitter antenna has been investigated. The radiation pattern of the proposed antenna in azimuth is nearly omni-directional response, which is usulally required in conventional monopole antenna. In addition to that, the simulation and measured results show that the return loss characteristics of VHDMA covers considerably large bandwidth with small area. From the measured results of the circular and half-circular disc-loaded monopole antennas with small disc mounted on the top, it is found that the half disc-loaded monopole antenna with additional structure can be comparable to the circular disc-loaded monopole antenna in respect o( size and electrical performances. Surface wave and dielectric losses often caused by the printed antenna using high dielectric constant does not occur in metallic planar antenna with good impedance matching and without lossy matching unit. This structure implies that the performance of return loss is directly related with the radiation efficiency.

This paper proposes LCC type high frequency resonant inverter to be used as a source of induction heating device or ultrasonic device and considers of operating characteristic for it. The inverter is operated safely over wide range load, because it has both panel loaded capacitor and series loaded capacitor. Then, switching frequency of the inverter is controlled by feedback voltage and current in order to have constant output power even when load is varied.

It is common for highly loaded supersonic stage to have very high relative inlet Mach number. To get this level of inlet Mach number, rotor blade outer diameter or rotational speed should be increased. In the case of commercial turbo-fan engine, it is preferred to make the rotor blade outer diameter large than increasing the rotational speed. But, for multi-stage fan of military engines, overall diameter is often restricted and they are apt to increase the rotational speed. With high rotational speed, relative inlet Mach number is likely to be well supersonic over the entire rotor blade span and the characteristic of the stage is affected with meridional shape of the stage, especially at near hub or tip. In this paper, the aerodynamic performance of two different hub surface shape is compared and it's merit and demerits were discussed.

The paper first proposes an empirical algorithm for detecting dust-loaded airmass observed by Sea Wide Field-of-view Scanner (SeaWiFS). The proposed dust index formula is based on the curvature of the spectral reflectance estimated from the SeaWiFS band 4 (510 nm band) through band 8 (865 nm band) data, assuming "clear ocean water" reflectance. Evaluation of the algorithm is made over several typical Asian dust images including the ones over the Pacific in April, 1998, when a major dust event was reported. The study analyzes the performance and the characteristics of the algorithm by comparing the satellite-derived dust index images with contemporaneous columnar concentration of dust particles predicted by a numerical dust transport model. The comparison reveals several small-scale differences although their dust distribution patterns show good agreement generally.

In this paper, 10$\mu$ m-elevated MEMS CPWs on various substrates are presented. Effective dielectric constants of elevated CPW(ECPW) on polyimide-loaded silicon or alumina substrate are examined and characteristic impedances are also computed versus elevation height. Dispersive property of ECPW and its electromagnetic field distributions are studied through 3-D FDTD algorithm for optimum design. Attenuation of ECPW is measured with TRL calibration procedure and revealed about 3.2 43 lower than that of conventional CPW on the same low-resistivity silicon at 40 CHz. ECPW on polyimide-loaded silicon with overlapped configuration reveals 0.2 dB/mm. Especially, alumina substrate imposes better attenuation than silicon.

More addition of calcium carbonate in printing paper allows savings of the wood fibers and the drying energy. Pre-flocculation of GCC (ground calcium carbonate) using functional polymers was known as the best available technology to make high loaded paper until now, and it allowed less reduction of the paper essential properties such as tensile strength and smoothness at higher GCC content. However, pre-flocculated GCC became unstable in size under the continued agitation in the mill. Therefore, pre-flocculation method was modified in such a way that the in-situ calcium carbonate was formed between the GCC particles of the pre-flocculated GCC, and the resultant became more stable in size, which we named as HCC (hybrid calcium carbonate). HCC turned out to make high tensile strength and smoothness as much as the pre-flocculated GCC and gave much better size stability against stirring. Furthermore, HCC gave high bulk that pre-flocculation could not make.

This paper presents the test results of total 35 direct tensile specimens to investigate the effect of high-strength concrete on the tension stiffening effect in axially loaded reinforced concrete tensile members. Three kinds of concrete strength 25, 60, and 80 MPa were included as a major experimental parameter together with six concrete cover thickness ratios. The results showed that as higher strength concrete was employed, not only more extensive split cracking along the reinforcement was formed, but also the transverse crack space became smaller. Thereby, the effective tensile stiffness of the high-strength concrete specimens at the stabilized cracking stage was much smaller than those of normal-strength concrete specimens. This observation is contrary to the current design provisions, and the significance in reduction of tension stiffening effect by employment of high-strength concrete is much higher than that would be expected. Based on the present results, a modification factor is proposed for accounting the effect of the cover thickness and the concrete strength.

Needs for high ash loading in printing paper increase as green house gas (GHG) emission regulation becomes more stricter and pressure of lowering paper production cost increases. To meet the needs, a new type of filler was developed. The mixture of ground calcium carbonate (GCC) and calcium oxide was pre-floccuated with polyelectrolyte and further treated with carbon dioxide to form new calcium carbonate between GCCs. The final products were called as hybrid calcium carbonate (HCC), and its properties were compared to the GCC and the pre-flocculated GCC. Results showed increase in tensile, smoothness, opacity, and bulk for HCC.
