The addition of steel fibers in concrete mixture is recognized as a non-conventional mass reinforcement scheme that improves the torsional, flexural, and shear behavior of structural members. However, the analysis of fiber reinforced concrete beams under combined torsion, bending, and shear is limited because of the complicated nature of the problem. Therefore, nonlinear 3D finite element analysis was conducted using the "ANSYS CivilFEM" program to investigate the behavior of fiber reinforced concrete L-beams. These beams were tested at different reinforcement schemes and loading conditions. The reinforcement case parameters were set as follows: reinforced with longitudinal reinforcement only and reinforced with steel bars and stirrups. All beams were tested under two different combined loading conditions, namely, torsion-to-shear ratio (T/V) = 545 mm (high eccentricity) and T/V = 145 mm (low eccentricity). Eight intermediate L-beams were constructed and tested in a laboratory under combined torsion, bending, and shear to validate the finite element model. Comparisons with the experimental data reveal that the program can accurately predict the behavior of L-beams under different reinforcement cases and combined loading ratios. The ANSYS model accurately predicted the loads and deformations for various types of reinforcements in L-beams and captured the concrete strains of these beams.

This paper presents the DC voltage control method in DC link of High Voltage Direct Current(HVDC) for an offshore wind farm in Low Voltage Ride Through(LVRT) situation. Wind generators in an offshore wind farm are connected to onshore network via HVDC transmission. Due to LVRT control of grid side inverter in HVDC, power imbalancing in DC link is generated and this consequentially causes rising of DC voltage. A de-loading scheme is one of the method to protect the wind power system DC link capacitors from over voltage. But the flaw of this method is slow control response time and that it needs long recovery time to pre-fault condition after fault clear. Thus, this paper proposes improved de-loading method and we analyze control performance for DC voltage in LVRT control of HVDC for an offshore wind farm.

A two-dimensional Navier-Stokes code based on AUSMPW+ scheme has been developed to simulate the hypersonic flowfield of hypersonic shock-shock interaction. AUSMPW+ scheme is a new hybrid flux splitting scheme, which is improved by introducing pressure-based weight functions to eliminate the typical drawbacks of AUSM-type schemes, such as non-monotone pressure solutions. To study the real gas effects, three different gas models are taken into account in this paper: perfect gas, equilibrium flow and nonequilibrium flow. It has been investigated how each gas model influences on the peak surface loading, such as wall pressure and wall heat transfer, and unsteady flowfield structure in the region of shock-shock interaction. With the results, the value of peak pressure is not sensitive to the real gas effects nor to the wall catalyticity. However, the value of peak heat transfer rates is affected by the real gas effects and the wall catalyticity. The structure of the flowfield also changes drastically in the presence of real gas effects.

An inter-pin skew compensation scheme is proposed, which minimizes the inter-pin skew of parallel interface induced by unequal trace length and loading of printed circuit board (PCB). The proposed scheme measures the inter-pin skew and compensates during power-up with simple hardware. The proposed scheme is applied to 3.2-Gb/s/pin DDR4 SDRAM and implemented in a 0.18 m CMOS process. The inter-pin skew is compensated in 324-cycles of 400-MHz clock and the skew is compensated to be less than 24-ps.

Piecewise Integrated Composite (PIC) 보는 하중 유형에 따라 구간을 나누어, 각 구간마다 하중 유형에 강한 복합재료의 적층 순서를 배열한 보이다. 본 연구는 PIC 보의 구간을 머신 러닝의 일종인 k-NN(k-Nearest Neighbor) 분류를 통해 나누어 기존에 제시되었던 PIC 보에 비해 우수한 굽힘 특성을 갖게 하는 것이 목적이다. 먼저, 알루미늄 보의 3점 굽힘 해석을 통하여 참조점에서의 3축 특성(Triaxiality) 값 데이터를 얻었고, 이를 통해 인장, 전단, 압축의 레이블을 가진 학습 데이터가 만들어진다. 학습 데이터를 통해 각 면마다 독립적인 k-NN 분류 모델을 구성하는 방법(Each plane)과 전체 면에 대한 k-NN 분류 모델을 구성하는 방법(one part)을 이용하여 k-NN 분류 모델을 생성하였고, 하이퍼파라미터의 튜닝을 통하여 다양한 하중 충실도를 도출하였다. 가장 높은 하중 충실도를 가진 k-NN 분류 모델을 기반으로 보를 매핑(mapping)하였고, PIC 보에 대하여 유한요소 해석을 진행한 결과, 기존에 제시되었던 PIC 보에 비해 최대하중과 흡수 에너지가 커지는 특성을 보였다. 하중 충실도를 수동으로 조절하여 100%로 만든 PIC 보와 비교하였을 때, 최대하중과 흡수에너지가 미소한 차이가 나타났으며 이는 타당한 하중 충실도로 보여진다.

Fixtures are used in almost all phases of machining and assembly to position and hold a part accurately. The class of fixture which consists of 3 locators and 1 clamp(3L/1C) is known as the minimal set that can provide form closure which is a kinematic constraint condition for preventing all planar motions. This type of fixtures has advantages in terms of the number of fixture elements required, the time for clamping, and so on. However it is not widely used in industry because reliable loading scheme has not been reported. In this paper, we propose a method to load the class of 3L/1C fixtures using compliant motions. The planner is developed for synthesizing compliant motions to achieve precise final fixture configuration in the presence of sensing and control uncertainties. A novel approach to eliminate uncertainty in part orientation by adding one extra fixture element called an aligning pin is proposed.

Sampling schemes are intended for use in situations where stream-flow data are collected regularly, but concentration data are collected during only a limited number of time periods. Estimating water pollutant loading considering sampling intervals is presented, and for illustrative purposes the criterion is applied to the sampling station HS#3 of the Balan-reservoir watershed which is located at the southwest of Suwon. The stratification is employed uniformly for all sampling strategies in that the strata boundaries are defined using the actual distribution of flow values and the selected nonexceedence probabilities to minimize inaccuracy. Ratio estimator for SS, T-N, and T-P were used in order to calculate the water pollutant loading. A sampling scheme incorporating stratified sampling with real-time of the sampling characteristics is found to give the appropriate estimate of the mass load.

In this paper, full-scale loading tests were performed on a rectangular segmental tunnel lining, which was assembled by steel composite segments, to investigate its load-bearing structural behavior and failure mechanism. The tests were also used to confirm the composite effect by adding concrete inside to satisfy the required performance under severe loading conditions. The design of the tested rectangular segmental lining and the loading scheme are also described to better understand the bearing capacity of this composite lining structure. It is found that the structural ultimate bearing capacity is governed by the bond capacity between steel plates and the tunnel segment. The failure of the strengthened lining is the consequence of local failure of the bond at waist joints. This led to a fast decrease of the overall stiffness and eventually a loss of the structural integrity.

The use of fiber reinforced polymer (FRP) reinforcement in concrete structures has been on the rise due to its advantages over conventional steel reinforcement such as corrosion. Reinforcing steel corrosion has been the primary cause of deterioration of reinforced concrete (RC) structures, resulting in tremendous annual repair costs. One application of FRP reinforcement to be further explored is its use in RC frames. Nonetheless, due to FRP's inherently elastic behavior, FRP-reinforced (FRP-RC) members exhibit low ductility and energy dissipation as well as different damage mechanisms. Furthermore, current design standards for FRP-RC structures do not address seismic design in which the beam-column joint is a key issue. During an earthquake, the safety of beam-column joints is essential to the whole structure integrity. Thus, research is needed to gain better understanding of the behavior of FRP-RC structures and their damage mechanisms under seismic loading. In this study, two full-scale beam-column joint specimens reinforced with steel and GFRP configurations were tested under quasi-static loading. The control steel-reinforced specimen was detailed according to current design code provisions. The GFRP-RC specimen was detailed in a similar scheme. The damage in the two specimens is characterized to compare their performance under simulated seismic loading.
