본 연구는 토양 산성화 정도가 서로 다른 독일가문비나무 임분에서 토양 깊이에 따른 뿌리의 나이테 발달과 분지형태를 분석함으로서, 임분에 따른 뿌리발달을 비교하고자 하였다. 조사된 독일가문비나무 임분에서 뿌리분지구조는 변형된 뿌리와 변형되지 않은 뿌리에 대한 조사임분간의 통계적 유의성이 인정되지 않았지만, 가장 많이 산성화된 Weidenbrunnen 임분에서는 뿌리가 상해를 입음으로 인해 발생되는 포크형, 권총형, 쇠스랑형과 같은 비정상적인 분지구조가 많이 나타났다. 뿌리의 나이테 분석 결과, 수평뿌리의 연평균 길이생장은 Weidenbrunnen 임분과 Barbis 임분이 6.3cm, Eberg$\ddot{o}$tzen 임분이 9.5cm의 길이 생장을 나타내었으며, 수직뿌리의 연평균 길이생장은 Weidenbrunnen 임분이 4.4cm Barbis 임분이 5.4cm, 그리고 Eberg$\ddot{o}$tzen 임분이 6.7cm의 생장을 보였다. 80cm 토양 깊이에서의 뿌리 횡단면 분포는 Eberg$\ddot{o}$tzen 임분이 굵은 뿌리와 가는 뿌리가 고르게 분포하고 있으며, 횡단면의 합계는 $32.6cm^2$ 이었다. Barbis 임분에서는 굵은 뿌리가 가운데 몰려서 분포하고, 가는 뿌리는 비교적 적게 나타났으며, 그 합계는 $29.2cm^2$이었다. Weidenbrunnen 임분에서는 적은 수의 가는 뿌리만 분포하고 그 값은 $10.9cm^2$에 불과하였다. 뿌리고정계수는 Eberg$\ddot{o}$tzen 임분이 1.04로 다른 두 임분 Barbis(0.3), Weidenbrunnen (0.08)과 비교하여 매우 높은 값을 나타내었다. 본 조사 독일가문비나무 임분 중에서 Weidenbrunnen 임분에서 나타난 비정상적인 형태의 변형된 분지구조와 뿌리의 저조한 생장은 토양산 성화 등으로 인하여 정상적인 뿌리가 생장의 장애를 받아 나타난 결과 때문이라 사료된다.

윤곽선 시퀀스는 임의 형상을 간단하면서도 정확하게 표현할 수 있는 좋은 표현법이 될 수 있다. 그러나, 형상을 구성하는 화소로부터 쉽게 구할 수 있는 면적, 무게중심, 오리엔테이션 방향, 투영 히스토그램 등과 같은 형상 특징들을 윤곽선 시퀀스로부터 직접 구하기는 어렵기 때문에, 윤곽선 시퀀스를 임의 형상에 대한 표현법으로 잘 사용하지 못하였다. 본 논문에서는 형상 내부의 연속된 화소들로 구성된 수직(또는 수평)의 라인 세그먼트를 의미하는 크로스 섹션 개념을 이용하여, 윤곽선 시퀀스로부터 형상 특징들을 쉽게 구할 수 있음을 보인다. 윤곽선 시퀀스를 한번 순차적으로 탐색함으로써 크로스 섹션을 효율적으로 구할 수 있는 방법을 제안한다. 또한, 이진 영상으로부터 여러 형상의 윤곽선 시퀀스를 자동으로 추출할 수 있는 효율적인 방법도 함께 제안한다. 제안된 방법들은 형상 내부에 홀(hole)이 있는 경우에도 적용할 수 있다. 결과적으로, 윤곽선 시퀀스가 임의 형상 영역에 대한 매우 효과적인 표현이 될 수 있음을 밝힌다.

The effects of plaster on the behavior of single-story single-bay masonry-infilled steel frames under in-plane base accelerations have been experimentally investigated by a shake-table. Tested structures were made in a 1/3 scale, with realistic material properties and construction methods. Steel frames with high and low flexural rigidity of beams and columns were considered. Each type of frame was tested with three variants of masonry: (i) non-plastered masonry; (ii) masonry infill with conventional plaster on both sides; and (iii) masonry infill with a polyvinyl chloride (PVC) net reinforced plaster on both sides. Masonry bricks were made of lightweight cellular concrete. Each frame was firstly successively exposed to horizontal base accelerations of an artificial accelerogram, and afterwards, to horizontal base accelerations of a real earthquake. Characteristic displacements, strains and cracks in the masonry were established for each applied excitation. It has been concluded that plaster strengthens the infill and prevents damages in it, which results in more favorable behavior and increased bearing capacity of plastered masonry-infilled frames compared to non-plastered masonry-infilled frames. The load-bearing contribution of the adopted PVC net in the plaster was not noticeable for the tested specimens, probably due to relative small cross section area of fibers in the net. Behavior of masonry-infilled steel frames significantly depends on frame stiffness. Strong frames have smaller displacements than weak frames, which reduces deformations and damages of an infill.

Objective: This study examined cone-beam computed tomography (CBCT)-derived multiplanar-reconstructed (MPR) cross-sections to clarify the salient characteristics of patients with skeletal class III malocclusion with midface deficiency (MD). Methods: The horizontal and sagittal plane intersection points were identified for middle-third facial analysis in 40 patients in the MD or normal (N) groups. MPR images acquired parallel to each horizontal plane were used for length and angular measurements. Results: A comparison of the MD and N groups revealed significant differences in the zygoma prominence among female patients. The convex zygomatic area in the N group was larger than that in the MD group, and the inferior part of the midface in the N group was smaller than that in the MD group for both male and female patients. A significant difference was observed in the concave middle maxillary area among male patients. Conclusions: This study was conducted to demonstrate the difference between MD and normal face through MPR images derived from CBCT. Male patients in the MD group had a more flattened face than did those in the N group. Female patients in the MD group showed a concave-shaped lower section of the zygoma, which tended to have more severe MD. These findings indicate that orthognathic surgery to improve skeletal discrepancy requires different approaches in male and female patients.

The square tubed-reinforced concrete (TRC) column is a kind of special concrete-filled steel tube (CFST) columns, in which the outer thin-walled steel tube does not pass through the beam-column joint, so that the longitudinal steel reinforcing bars in the RC beam are continuous through the connection zone. However, there is a possible decrease of the axial bearing capacity at the TRC column to RC beam connection due to the discontinuity of the column tube, which is a concern to engineers. 24 connections and 7 square TRC columns were tested under axial compression. The primary parameters considered in the tests are: (1) connection location (corner, exterior and interior); (2) dimensions of RC beam cross section; (3) RC beam type (with or without horizontal haunches); (4) tube type (with or without stiffening ribs). The test results show that all specimens have relatively high load-carrying capacity and satisfactory ductility. With a proper design, the connections exhibit higher axial resistance and better ductility performance than the TRC column. The feasibility of this type of connections is verified.

In Special Concentrically Braced Frames (SCBFs), vertical and horizontal components of the brace force must be resisted by column and beam, respectively but normal force component existing at the gusset plate-to-column and beam interfaces, creates out-of-plane action making distortion in column and beam faces adjacent to the gusset plate. It is a main concern in Hollow Structural Section (HSS) columns and beams where their webs and gusset plate are not in the same plane. In this paper, a new gusset plate passing through the HSS columns and beams, named as through gusset plate, is proposed to study the force transfer mechanism in such gusset plates of SCBFs compared to the case with conventional gusset plates. For this purpose, twelve SCBFs with diagonal brace and HSS columns and twelve SCBFs with chevron brace and HSS columns and beams are considered. For each frame, two cases are considered, one with through gusset plates and the other with conventional ones. Based on numerical results, using through gusset plates prevents distortion and out-of-plane deformation at HSS column and beam faces adjacent to the gusset plate helping the entire column and beam cross-sections to resist respectively vertical and horizontal components of the brace force. Moreover, its application increases energy dissipation, lateral stiffness and strength around 28%, 40% and 32%, respectively, improving connection behavior and raising the resistance of the normal force components at the gusset plate-to-HSS column and beam interfaces to approximately 4 and 3.5 times, respectively. Finally, using such through gusset plates leads to better structural performance particularly for HSS columns and beams with larger width-to-thickness ratio elements.

In order to consider the modified seismic response of framed structures in the presence of masonry infills, proper models have to be formulated. Because of the complexity of the problem, a careful definition of a diagonal pin-jointed strut, able to represent the horizontal force-interstorey displacement cyclic law of the actual infill, may be a solution. In this connection the present paper shows a generalized criterion for the determination of the ideal cross-section of the strut mentioned before. The procedure is based on the equivalence between the lateral stiffness of the actual infilled frame scheme during the conventional elastic stage of the response and the lateral stiffness of the same frame stiffened by a strut at the same stage. Unlike the usual empirical approaches available in the literature, the proposed technique involves the axial stiffness of the columns of the frame more than their flexural stiffness. Further, the influence of the bidimensional behaviour of the infill is stressed and, consequently, the dependence of the dimensions of the equivalent pin-jointed strut on the Poisson ratio of the material constituting the infill is also shown. The proposed approach is extended to the case of infills with openings, which is very common in practical applications.

Mean velocities and turbulent characteristics in the three-dimensional flow fields of a gun-type gas burner were measured by using triple hot-wire probe (T-probe) in order to compare them with the results already presented by X-type hot-wire probe (X-probe). Vectors obtained by the measurement of two kinds of probes in the horizontal plane and in the cross section respectively show more or less difference in magnitude each other, but comparatively similar shape in overall distribution. Axial mean velocity component along the centerline shows that the value by T-probe is about ten times smaller than that by X-probe above the range of X/R=3. Also, the axial component of turbulent intensity along the centerline appears the biggest difference between the two probes. Moreover, axial mean velocity component, axial turbulent intensity component and rotational along the Y-directional distance show a big difference between slits and swirl vanes. On the whole, the values by T-probe appear smaller than those by X-probe.
