The design load-carrying capacities of wooden shores depend on factors, such as the wood species and properties, and construction methods. This paper focuses on the construction methods, including an upright single shore, group of upright shores, group of inclined shores, butt connections and lap connections. This paper reports experiments to obtain critical loads and then developed an empirical equation based on Euler' formula for the critical loads and design load-carrying capacities. The test results show that the critical loads for an upright single wooden shore are greater than the average values for a group of upright shores, and the latter are greater than the average values for a group of inclined shores. Test results also show that the critical loads become smaller when butt or lap connections are used, butt connections possessing greater critical loads than lap connections. Groups of inclined shores are very popular at work sites because they have some practical advantages even though they actually possess inferior critical loads. This paper presents an improved setup for constructing groups of inclined shores. With this method, the inclined shores have larger critical loads than upright shores. The design load-carrying capacities were obtained by multiplying the average critical loads by a resistance factor (or strength reduction factor, ${\phi}$) that were all smaller than 1. This article preliminarily suggests ${\phi}$ factors based on the test results for the reference of engineers or specification committees.

If the Photovoltaic(PV) Module should get physical load, the PV module will be warped according to elongation of the front glass and then micro-crack will be occurred in the heat sealed Solar Cell. This micro-crack drops output of the short circuit current and the open circuit voltage of the PV Module. This is because of increase of resistance component by micro-crack. Micro-crack at specific Solar Cell in the module reduces the durability of PV Module such as less output, Hot-Spot in the PV module caused by Solar Cell output mismatch, heat generating as resistance component caused by micro-crack. In this study, among some factors which effect to the output of crystalline PV Module, we will see how the micro-crack caused by mechanical stress effects to the electrical output of PV Module.

본 연구는 RC조 슬래브의 자중을 줄이기 위하여 구조적 역할을 담당하지 않은 상 하부 철근 사이의 중앙부 콘크리트를 제거하고, 중량감소 및 단열성능을 확보할 수 있는 경량 중공체를 적용한 중공슬래브에 대하여 현장 적용을 위한 최소 요구내화성능(1~2시간)을 평가하기 위한 것이다. 이에 피복두께 및 적재하중, 경간길이를 실험인자로 설정하여 실험을 수행하였다. 내화실험을 실시한 결과, 실험인자에 상관없이 모두 목표 내화성능인 120분을 만족하였고 피복두께 보다 적재하중이 내화성능에 더 큰 영향을 미치는 것으로 나타났다. 경간길이는 짧을수록 내화성능에 유리한 것으로 나타났다. 기존 RC조 슬래브에 적용되지 않던 경량 중공체로 사용된 발포폴리스티렌(EPS: Expanded Polystyrene)의 고온시 특성을 파악한 결과 $100^{\circ}C$에서 유리천이현상(Glass Transition)으로 인한 온도상승 지연구간이 발생하는 것으로 나타났다. 또한 발포폴리스티렌의 polystyrene는 녹는점이 $185^{\circ}C$로 낮은 온도에서 용융된다. 따라서 낮은 온도에서 중공체가 용융되어 온도센서 주변에서 전도에 의한 열전달 매개체가 사라지게 된다. 이에 중공체의 온도는 철근 및 콘크리트에 비해 낮게 나타나는 것으로 판단된다. 따라서 경량 중공체는 낮은 온도에서 용융되어 중공슬래브의 내화성능에 큰 영향을 미치지 않는 것으로 판단된다.

The prevalence of chronic diseases including osteoporosis and sarcopenia increases as the population ages. Osteoporosis and sarcopenia are commonly associated with genetics, mechanical factors, and hormonal factors and primarily associated with aging. Many older populations, particularly those with frailty, are likely to have concurrent osteoporosis and sarcopenia, further increasing their risk of disease-related complications. Because bones and muscles are closely interconnected by anatomy, metabolic profile, and chemical components, a diagnosis should be considered for both sarcopenia and osteoporosis, which may be treated with optimal therapeutic interventions eliciting pleiotropic effects on both bones and muscles. Exercise training has been recommended as a promising therapeutic strategy to encounter the loss of bone and muscle mass due to osteosarcopenia. To stimulate the osteogenic effects for bone mass accretion, bone tissues must be exposed to mechanical load exceeding those experienced during daily living activities. Of the several exercise training programs, resistance exercise (RE) is known to be highly beneficial for the preservation of bone and muscle mass. This review summarizes the mechanisms of RE for the preservation of bone and muscle mass and supports the clinical evidences for the use of RE as a therapeutic option in osteosarcopenia.

In this paper, an environmental factor and a durability resistance factor which adapts the concept of the Load Resistance Factor Design for safety design of RC structures is derived and a basic principle of a durability evaluation for RC structures using the factors is proposed. It is shown that durability of RC structures can be evaluated by comparing predicted value of chloride ion concentration with limit value of concentration for steel corrosion generation in reinforcement steel position and the durability of concrete manufactured for the RC structures can be also evaluated by comparing characteristic diffusion coefficient of concrete with predicted diffusion coefficient during mixture design.

횡하중이 작용하는 짧은말뚝의 지지거동에 영향을 미칠 수 있는 인자들에 대한 분석을 문헌과 사례를 통해 제시하였다. 가상고정점은 $1/{\beta}$를 일률적으로 적용하는 것보다 지반의 강성에 따라 적용되어야 하고, Chang(1937)법과 P-Y 해석법이 유사한 고정점 위치를 예측하였다. 점성토의 수평지지력은 실내와 현장이 다른 특성을 보였고, 평가방법은 실내시험에서는 모두 과소예측을 하였고, 현장은 과소 또는 과대 예측을 한다. 현장실험에서는 Hansen(1961)법이 비교적 실측에 근접한 예측결과를 제시하였다. 사질토의 수평지지력 평가법은 실내시험에서는 과대예측을 하였고, 현장도 대부분 과대예측한다. 경험적 수평지지력 분포도를 사용한 Zhang(2005)법이 비교적 실측에 근접한 예측 결과를 보였다. 본 연구에서는 점성토 지반에 대하여 극한수평지지력 분포도 및 산정방법을 제안하였다. 제안법은 다른 방법에 비해 실측과 가장 근접한 결과를 추정하였다.

This paper reports the results of a recent experimental study into the behavior of welded fin-plate connections to both hollow and concrete filled tubular (CFT) columns under shear. Experiments have been performed at both ambient and elevated temperatures with the aid of an electric kiln. The observed failure modes include fracture of the fin plate and tearing out of the tube around the welds. By considering the results of previously published research, the current design method for similar connections under purely tensile load, in CIDECT Guide 9, based on a deformation limit of 3% of the tube width is shown to be inadequate when evaluating the ultimate strength of such connections. By comparing the results from the current test program which failed in the fin-plate with Eurocode guidance for failure of a fin-plate alone under shear and bending load it is shown that the column face influences the overall connection strength regardless of failure mode. Concrete in-fill is observed to significantly increase the strength of connections over empty specimens, and circular column specimens were observed to exhibit greater strength than similarly proportioned square columns. A finite element (F.E.) model, developed using ABAQUS, is presented and validated against the experimental results in order that extensive parametric tests may be subsequently performed. When validating the model against elevated temperature tests it was found that using reduction factors suggested in published research for the specific steel grades improved results over applying the generic Eurocode elevated temperature steel strength reduction factors.

In this paper, an investigation of factors affecting piezoelectric transformers is presented by ATILA software. These transformers are multi-layer piezoelectric transformers in square shape $28\;{\times}\;28\;mm$ and operate in first vibration mode for step-down function. The piezoelectric transformers were modeled in 3D-dimension and analyzed using finite element method in ATILA software, a popular software in piezoelectric analysis. Modal and harmonic modules were used in this process. Effective factors to the properties of piezoelectric transformers including different input electrode patterns, directions of polarization, sizes of connective comer, number of layers were examined on the simulated model using input voltage of 20 V and load resistance of $100\;{\Omega}$. Moreover, thermal analysis was also obtained with conditions of input voltage of 5 V and no-load.
