By the use of a similar numerical method as the forming limit strain by coating method of coated sheet metals is investigated, in which the FEM is applied and J2G(J2-Gotohs Corner Theory) is utilized as the plasticity constitutive equa-tion. Circular bonded sheet metals with dissimilar sheets on both surface planes are stretched in a plane -strain state, with various work-hardening exponent n-values and thicknesses of each layer. Processes of shear-band formation in such com-posite sheets are clearly illustrated. It is concluded that, it the bonded state, the higher limiting strain of one layer is reduced due to the lower limiting strain of the other layer and vice versa, and does not necessarily obey the rule of linear combination of the limiting strain of each layer weighed according thickness.

Finite element simulation is an alternative method to practically find the forming limit diagram(FLD). In this paper, the novel fracture criterion is utilized to predict the FLD in conjunction with finite element analysis for sheet forming. The principal scheme of the fracture criterion in this paper is that growth of the micro voids leads up to fracture in the viewpoint of micro-mechanics. The numerical FLD is verified by results of the out-of plane stretching test using hemispherical punch. The verification is also conducted about two types of material. These results are in good accord with the experimental results. Especially, the proposed scheme is appropriate to predict FLDs for a restricted material with low ductility after the instability point or ultimate tensile strength.

For each strand of wirerope sling, the international standards, ISO-8794, EN-13414 specify that the splice shall have five series of load carrying tucks. At least three of the load carrying tucks shall be made with the whole strand. And, the breaking force of the splice shall not be less than 70% or 80% of that of rope. But, There are no prescriptions for splicing types against different efficiency of each splicing type being used many workplace. In this study, analysis the work limit load efficiency according to variation of number of tucks and splicing types by experimental method As a result, the number of tucks 3+2 had the highest breaking efficiency.

The limit drawing ratio (LDR) is a major process parameter in the process design of deep drawing. If the actual drawing ratio is greater than the LDR for a particular stage, then an intermediate stage has to be added to the process sequence to avoid failure during the ratio. In this study, the optimal process design considering forming limit is performed for the first-drawing and redrawing by using finite element method combined with ductile fracture criterion. The LDR and the site of fracture initiation are predicted by means of the fracture criterion. From the results of finite element analysis, the optimal value of drawing ratio is obtained, which contributes to the more uniform distribution of thickness and the smaller values of the ductile fracture in final cup.

The evaluation of the effluent water quality of sewage treatment plant is one of the most important factor in calculating total maximum daily loads (TMDLs). Current method to calculate 95% upper limit of effluent water quality of sewage treatment plant assuming normal distribution of data needs to be implemented in case of non-normal distribution. We have investigated the applicability of percentile ranking method as a non-parametric statistical analysis in case of non-normal distribution of data.

The analysis method for qualitative analysis of the screening method that can be performed prior to the quantitative analysis of individual pesticide was reviewed in order to meet the safety standards that are being strengthened in the field of pesticide residue testing of herbal medicines. Among the residual pesticides presented in the Korean Pharmacopoeia, 56 pesticides, excluding 15 pesticides that need to be individually analyzed, were selected for analysis using QuEChERS preprocessing and GC-MS/MS, which are used in the existing agricultural products field. For each pesticide, the detection limit level of 0.001-0.005 mg/kg and the quantitative limit level of 0.002-0.017 mg/kg were confirmed. In the recovery test in which the standard was treated at a concentration of 0.02 mg/kg, it was confirmed that the proportion of pesticides satisfying the recovery of 70-120% was 85.7-96.4% for each herbal medicine, so it was confirmed that it was a level that could be reviewed by the screening method.

81.1% of traffic accidents is attributed to the drivers. In this regard, D/E model is a practical and effective method in terms of the cost and time in evaluating the road hazardousness. To examine the validity of the threshold values by the levels of demand We selected 10 subjects and collected their physiological signals while they were driving on Honam Highway (Jeonju ${\leftrighttarro}$ Hoideog section). Based on the collected data, the hazardous road condition was evaluated using the new threshold values of the effort level determined by cluster analysis. In applying the D/E model, a decision method based on the demand level was suggested, using a traffic accident prediction model. Additionally, the limit value of the effort level was determined using the drivers' physiological signal data collected at the highway. A comparison analysis of the two D/E models revealed no significant difference: The existing method and the clustering method determined 9 and 7 hazardous road zones, respectively, while actual traffic accidents were reported in 6 and 4 zones, respectively among the predicted road hazardous zones. However, the latter method suggested a more scientific and rational basis in determining the limit value of the Effort level. In conclusion, although D/E model has a great merit as a pioneering method to reflect human factors in evaluating the road hazardousness, it is believed that this method could be improved by a more dynamic method that considers the traffic conditions and the individual physiological signal of the drivers simultaneously in determining a better limit.

A method based on the lower-bound theorem of limit analysis is presented for the capacity assessment of nodal zones in strut-and-tie models. The idealized geometry of the nodal zones is formed by the intersection of effective widths of the framing struts and ties. The stress distribution is estimated by dividing the nodal zones into constant stress triangles separated by lines of stress discontinuity. The strength adequacy is verified by comparing the biaxial stress field in each triangle with the corresponding failure criteria. The approach has been implemented in a computer-based strut-and-tie tool called CAST (Computer-Aided Strut-and-Tie). An application example is also presented to illustrate the approach.

The process of material failure i.e. cracks development and their propagation in an experiment related to the bending collapse of cross laminated timber plate with ribs is described. Numerical simulation of such an experiment by the nonlinear finite element method is presented. The numerical model is based on Hashin failure criteria, initially developed for unidirectional composites, and on material softening concept applied by the smeared crack approach. It is shown that such a numerical model can be used for an estimation of the limit load and the limit displacement of a cross laminated timber ribbed plate.

This paper presents the design of a passive biped walking robot based on limit cycle analysis. By using numerical analysis and experiment, we identify better design criterion for biped walking robot. In designing robot parameters we apply global search method to find limit cycles for given robot parameters and ground angle. Internal parameter variation changes limit cycle behavior, total energy, strides, etc and the characteristics of walking is analyzed by simulation and experiments.
