Post-tensioned precast segmental bridge columns have shown high level of strength and ductility, and low residual displacement, which makes them suffer minor damage after earthquake loading; however, there is still lack of confidence on their lateral response against severe seismic loading due in part to their low energy dissipation capacity. This study investigates the influence of major design factors such as post-tensioning force level, strands position, columns aspect ratio, steel jacket and mild steel ratio on seismic performance of self-centring segmental bridge columns in terms of lateral strength, residual displacement and lateral peak displacement. Seismic analyses show that increasing the continuous mild steel ratio improves the lateral peak displacement of the self-centring columns at different levels of post-tensioning (PT) forces. Such an increase in steel ratio reduces the residual drift in segmental columns with higher aspect ratio more considerably. Suggestions are proposed for the design of self-centring segmental columns with various aspect ratios at different target drifts.

TIG welding enables to produce high quality weldment. However it has some problems such as shallow penetration and large distortion due to low penetration aspect ratio after welding. In order to overcome those problems, there are many ongoing studies on A-TIG welding, which use active flux. In this study, the effect of arc length and shield gas on penetration aspect ratio with melt-run welding on STS 304 6t, on which active flux was spreaded, was investigated. Arc length was changed from 1mm to 3mm, and aspect ratio became higher as arc length was decreased in this range. 100% Ar gas, Ar-$H_2$ mixed gas, Ar-He mixed gas, and 100% He gas were used as shield gas in this study. When Ar-$H_2$ mixed gas, Ar-He mixed gas, and 100% He gas were applied, penetration and melting efficiency were both increased as compared with 100% Ar gas. Aspect ratio was the highest with Ar-2.5% $H_2$ mixed gas.

We have proposed and demonstrated a low numerical aperture technique to measure the depth of through silicon vias (TSVs) using white-light scanning interferometry. The high aspect ratio hole like TSV's was considered to be impossible to measure using conventional optical methods due to low visibility at the bottom of the hole. We assumed that the limitation of the measurement was caused by reflection attenuation in TSVs. A novel interference theory which takes the structural reflection attenuation into consideration was proposed and simulated. As a result, we figured out that the low visibility in the interference signal was caused by the unbalanced light intensity between the object and the reference mirror. Unbalanced light can be balanced using an aperture at the illumination optics. As a result of simulation and experiment, we figured out that the interference signal can be enhanced using the proposed technique. With the proposed optics, the depth of TSVs having an aspect ratio of 11.2 was measured in 5 seconds. The proposed method is expected to be an alternative method for 3-D inspection of TSVs.

본 연구에서는 반응성 이온빔을 low-angle forward reflection으로 생성시킨 중성빔을 이용하여 Aspect Ratio Dependent Etching (ARDE) 현상이 제거되는 효과에 대하여 연구하였다. SF6 가스를 사용하여 Inductively Coupled Plasma system과 이온빔으로 각각 poly-Si 을 식각한 결과 ARDE 현상을 관찰할 수 있었으며, Si 기판위에 증착된 Poly-Si을 식각하는 것보다 $SiO_2$ 기판 위에 증착된 Poly-Si을 식각하는 것이 ARDE 현상이 더 많이 나타난다는 것을 관찰할 수 있었다. 반면에 같은 공정 조건에서 중성빔으로 poly-Si을 식각한 결과 이러한 ARDE 현상이 효과적으로 제거되었음을 관찰할 수 있었다. 중성빔을 이용하여 ARDE 현상이 제거되는 원리는 2 차원의 XOOPIC code 와 TRIM code를 사용하여 여러가지 나노스케일의 형상을 컴퓨터 시뮬레이션하여 증명하였다.

Transmutation characteristics of transuranics (TRU) in a transmutation reactor based on LAR (Low Aspect Ratio) tokamak as a neutron source are investigated. Optimum radial build of a transmutation reactor is found by coupled analysis of the tokamak systems and the neutron transport. The dependence of the transmutation characteristics on an aspect ratio, A in the range of 1.5 to 2.5, and on a fusion power in the range of 150 MW to 500 MW are investigated. Equilibrium fuel cycle is developed for effective transmutation and it is shown that with one unit of the transmutation reactor based on the LAR tokamak producing fusion power in the range of a few hundred MW, up to 3 PWRs (1.0 GWe capacity) can be supported with the burn-up fraction bigger than 50%.

Transmutation characteristics of minor actinides in a transmutation reactor based on a Low Aspect Ratio (LAR) tokamak are investigated. One-dimensional neutron transport and burn-up calculation coupled with the tokamak systems analysis were performed to find the optimal system parameters. The dependence of the transmutation characteristics such as neutron multiplication factor, produced power and transmutation rate on an aspect ratio A in the range of 1.5 to 2.0 was investigated. By adding Pu239 in the transmutation blanket as a neutron multiplication material, it was shown that the one unit of the transmutation reactor based on the LAR tokamak producing fusion power of 150 MWth can destroy the minor actinides contained in the spent fuels produced from more than 19 units of l GWe PWRs with production of the power being in the range of 0.9 - 3.4 GWth.

Past studies have shown that the aspect ratio (width-to-height) of a steel plate shear wall (SPSW) can significantly affect its seismic response. SPSWs with lower aspect ratio (narrow SPSW) may experience low lateral stiffness and flexure dominated drift response. As the height of the frame increases, the narrow SPSWs prove to be uneconomical and demonstrate inferior seismic response than their wider counterparts. Moreover, the thicker web plates required for narrow SPSWs exerts high inward pull on the VBEs. The present study suggests the limiting values of the aspect ratio for an SPSW system by evaluating the seismic collapse performance of 3-, 6- and 9-story SPSW systems using FEMA P695 methodology. For this purpose, nonlinear models are developed. These models are validated with the past quasi-static experimental results. Non-linear static analyses and Incremental dynamic analyses are then carried. The results are then utilized to conservatively suggest the limiting values of aspect ratios for SPSW system. In addition to the conventional-SPSW (Conv-SPSW), the collapse performance of staggered-SPSW (S-SPSW) is also explored. Its performance is compared with the Conv-SPSW and the use of S-SPSW is suggested in the cases where SPSW with lower than recommended aspect ratio is desired.

본 논문은 교통사고 방지를 위한 운전자의 눈 영상비를 이용한 상태 경고시스템의 설계에 대해 소개하고 있다. 제안하는 운전자 상태 경고 시스템은 눈 인식을 위한 카메라, 카메라를 통해 들어오는 정보를 처리하는 라즈베리파이, 그리고 그 정보를 통해 운전자에게 경고를 줄 때 필요한 부저와 진동기로 구성되어 있다. 운전자의 눈을 인식하기 위해서 기울기 방향성 히스토그램 기술과 딥러닝 기반의 얼굴 표지점 추정 기법을 사용하였다. 동작을 시작하면, 시스템은 눈 주변의 6개의 좌표를 통해 눈 영상비를 계산한다. 그리고 눈을 뜬 상태와 감은 상태의 눈 영상비를 각각 계산한 후 이 두 값으로부터 눈의 상태를 판단하는데 사용하는 문턱 값을 설정한다. 문턱 값이 운전자의 눈 크기에 적응하면서 설정되기 때문에 시스템은 최적의 문턱 값을 사용하여 운전자의 상태를 판단할 수 있다. 또한 낮은 조도에서도 눈을 인식할 수 있도록 회색조 변환 이미지와 LAB모델 이미지를 합성하여 사용하였다.

Natural convection heat transfer in a rectangular enclosure is investigated numerically for low aspect ratio(height/width) cavities. Numerical results are obtained for aspect ratios between ${10}^{-2}$ and ${10}^0$, Rayleight numbers from ${10}^3$ to ${10}^7$ and Prandtl numbers from 10$^{-2}$ to 10$^3$. Results are compared with existing analytical and experimental results. A heat transfer correlation is developed to predict the mean Nusselt number as a function of the three governing dimensionless parameters: Rayleigh number, aspect ratio and Prandtl number.
