This paper describes the development of variable stability system (VSS) control laws for the KFA-i to simulate the dynamics of KFA-m aircraft. The KFA-i is a single engine, Class IV aircraft and was selected as an in-flight simulator (IFS) aircraft, whereas the KFA-m is a simulated aircraft that is based on the F-16 aircraft. A 6-DoF math model of KFA-i aircraft was developed, linearized, and separated into longitudinal and lateral motion for VSS control law synthesis. The KFA-i aircraft has five primary control surfaces: two flaperons, two all movable horizontal tails, and one rudder. Flaperons are used for load control, the horizontal tails are used for pitch and roll rate control, and the rudder is used for yaw rate control. The developed VSS control law can simulate four parameters of the KFA-m aircraft simultaneously, such as pitch, roll, yaw rates, and load. The simulation results show that KFA-i follows the responses of KFA-m with high accuracy.

A Prestressed stayed steel column is an efficient and lightweight way with regard to enhancing the stability behaviour of a compression column. In the past, researchers primarily concentrated on investigating the behaviour of stayed steel columns with horizontal crossarms. However, this article focuses on prestressed stayed steel columns with split-up crossarm system, in which the crossarms are aslant and rotational symmetrically arranged. A mathematical formula calculating the optimal pretension that corresponds to the maximum critical buckling load was established according to geometric analysis based on the small deformation assumption. It was demonstrated that critical buckling mode of this stayed column is different from the one with horizontal crossarms. The governing imperfection direction that should be adopted in the nonlinear buckling analysis was determined in this work. In addition, the effects of crossarm inclination, stay diameter, and crossarm length on the stability behaviour were investigated. An influencing factor denotes the ratio of the load carrying capacity of the prestressed stayed steel column to the Euler load of the main column was also obtained.

Hydraulic experiments were performed in order to gain an insight into the quantitative differences between the perforated wall caisson and its solid wall counterpart in the local pressure distribution and caisson stability. The results showed that the wave forces acting on local walls were smaller in the perforated wall caisson than in the solid wall caisson. For the caisson stability, the critical weights of the perforated wall caisson also turned out to be smaller than those of the solid wall caisson. The Phenomenon was attributed to the dual effects inherent to the perforated wall caisson, which are the decrease of total horizontal force and the phase difference between the total horizontal and vertical forces.

In this study, we developed a new systematic approach to assess the influence of geometric parameter change on the horizontal and vertical stability indices. To do this, three phases of sensitivity analyses were carried out. First, typical geometric parameters were defined and their effects on hydrodynamic coefficients were assessed by the Sensitivity Analysis (SA) of the indirect method. Second, the effects of hydrodynamic coefficients on the stability indices were calculated. Finally, the sensitivities of geometric parameters on the stability indices were obtained by merging the outputs of two phases using chain rule. The developed approach cau contribute to a submarine designer to determine geometric parameters satisfying pre-requirements about stability systematically.

Purpose: The purpose of this study was to evaluate the postoperative stability of LeFort I osteotomy in two-jaw surgery of skeletal class III malocclusion and to help the establishment of treatment planning in patients with a skeletal class III malocclusion in the future. Materials and Methods: The lateral cephalograms of 14 patients who had been underwent two-jaw surgery via one-piece LeFort I osteotomy were traced and the landmarks were identified. Repeated tracings and construction of reference planes were done. Comparisons were made from the immediate postoperative to late postoperative results of each landmarks on the horizontal and vertical directions. Conclusions: 1. The horizontal changes of landmark ANS, point A, PNS and Mx6Rt between immediate postoperative to late postoperative data were statistically insignificant(p>0.05). 2. The vertical changes of landmark ANS, point A, PNS, Mx6Cr and Mx6Rt between immediate postoperative to late postoperative data were statistically insignificant(p>0.05). 3. The horizontal change of landmark Mx6Cr between immediate postoperative to late postoperative data was statistically significant(p<0.05). 4. Results showed that it was stable that one-piece LeFort I osteotomy in two-jaw surgery of skeletal class III malocclusion.

The fragility analyses for the partially filled horizontal cylindrical tank having a flexible wall were conducted to evaluate seismic performance. An equivalent simplified model with two lumped masses representing to impulsive and convective masses was used to represent the liquid storage system. This simplified model was validated by comparing its time history analysis results with the 3D FSI model results. The horizontal tank was analyzed under bi-directional excitations. Seismic fragility curves for the stability were developed in transverse and longitudinal directions. Fragility curves show that seismic damage for the horizontal storage system is more susceptible in the transverse direction.

The ground source heat pump (GSHP) system has attracted attention, because of its stability of heat production, and the high efficiency of the system. However, there are few studies on the prediction method of the heat exchange rate for a horizontal GSHP system. In this research, in order to predict the performance of a horizontal GSHP system, coupled simulation with a ground heat transfer model and a heat exchanger circulation model was developed, and calculation of heat exchange rate was conducted by the developed tool. In order to optimally design the horizontal GSHP system, the flow rate of circulation water, and the depth and buried spaces of heat exchangers were considered by the case study. As a result, the temperature of circulation water and the heat exchange rate of the system were calculated in each case.

In this study, the stability of trench slope was analysed in summer and winter seasons for the construction of pipelines in permafrost regions. The construction standards of Korea, Russia and UK were compared for obtaining an optimum trench shape for a pipeline of 30 in. diameter. Using the geotechnical properties of soil in Yakutsk (Russia), the stability of trench slope was analysed using Strength Reduction Method (SRM) according to the horizontal slope angle values of $0^{\circ}$, $10^{\circ}$, $20^{\circ}$ and $30^{\circ}$ and vertical slope angle values of $20^{\circ}$, $30^{\circ}$ and $40^{\circ}$. In both seasons, an increase in the slope angle results in a decrease in the factor of safety. The results show that horizontal slope angle of $30^{\circ}$ was not safe in summer season. At the vertical slope angle of $20^{\circ}$, trench side failure was observed, whereas, ground slope failure was observed at the vertical slope angles of $30^{\circ}$ and $40^{\circ}$. Due to the solidification of pore water at temperatures below $0^{\circ}C$, cementation of soil particles take place. Therefore, the trench slope was found to be stable in the winter season at all vertical and horizontal slop angles, except for special load cases and abrupt temperature changes.

It is well known that the postoperative skeletal instability after Le Fort I osteotomy for advancement of maxilla in the cleft patients is one of the major surgical problems. So we had tried to compare the amount of relapse after Le Fort I advancement surgery in the horizontal and vertical positional change, angular change of reference points between cleft patients and non-cleft patients. Longitudinal records of 10 consecutive cleft patients (test group) and 20 non-cleft patients (control group) were analyzed. Lateral cephalograms were taken preoperatively, immediately postoperatively, and 2, 6, 12 months postoperatively. We measured horizontal and vertical changes (ANS, PNS, AI) and angular change (SNA) of the reference points and lines. In the test group, horizontal relapse of ANS, PNS, AI point are 36.4%, 37.5%, 32.0% respectively at 12 months postoperatively. The vertical relapse of ANS, PNS, AI are 25.3%, 32.3%, 39.1% respectively at 12 months postoperatively. The angular change of SNA is 33.6% at 12 months postoperatively. In the control group, horizontal relapse of ANS, PNS, AI point are 23.8%, 30.2%, 21.7% respectively at 12 months postoperatively. The vertical relapse of ANS, PNS, AI are 22.7%, 27.3%, 25.1% respectively at 12 months postoperatively. The angular change of SNA is 22.2% at 12 months postoperatively. The cleft patients have a larger tendency of skeletal and dental relapse compared with non-cleft patients after Le Fort I surgery. So the oral and maxillofacial surgeons must keep in mind these facts in order to minimize the relapse phenomenon from the beginning of surgical planning to postoperative care.
