  • Beam-column joints are recognized as the weak points of reinforcement concrete frames. The ductility of reinforced concrete (RC) frames during severe earthquakes can be measured through the dissipation of large energy in beam-column joint. Retrofitting and rehabilitating structures through proper methods, such as carbon fiber reinforced polymer (CFRP), are required to prevent casualties that result from the collapse of earthquake-damaged structures. The main challenge of this issue is identifying the effect of CFRP on the occurrence of failure in the joint of a cross section with normal ductility. The present study evaluates the retrofitting method for a normal ductile beam-column joint using CFRP under monotonic and cyclic loads. Thus, the finite element model of a cross section with normal ductility and made of RC is developed, and CFRP is used to retrofit the joints. This study considers three beam-column joints: one with partial CFRP wrapping, one with full CFRP wrapping, and one with normal ductility. The two cases with partial and full CFRP wrapping in the beam-column joints are used to determine the effect of retrofitting with CFRP wrapping sheets on the behavior of the beam-column joint confined by such sheets. All the models are subjected to monotonic and cyclic loading. The final capacity and hysteretic results of the dynamic analysis are investigated. A comparison of the dissipation energy graphs of the three connections shows significant enhancement in the models with partial and full CFRP wrapping. An analysis of the load-displacement curves indicates that the stiffness of the specimens is enhanced by CFRP sheets. However, the models with both partial and full CFRP wrapping exhibited no considerable improvement in terms of energy dissipation and stiffness.

  • We study nondegenerate immersions of Riemannian manifolds of constant sectional curvatures into Lorentzian manifolds of the same constant sectional curvatures with flat normal bundles. We also give a method to produce such immersions using the so-called Grassmannian system. .

  • We study Ribaucour transformations on nondegenerate local isometric immersions of Lorentzian space forms into Lorentzian space forms with the same sectional curvatures which have flat normal bundles. They can be associated to dressing actions on the solution space of Lorentzian Grassmannian systems.

  • Recently, renovations of plant equipment have been more frequent because of the shortened lifespans of the products, and as-built models from large-scale laser-scanned data is expected to streamline rebuilding processes. However, the laser-scanned data of an existing plant has an enormous amount of points, captures intricate objects, and includes a high noise level, so the manual reconstruction of a 3D model is very time-consuming and costly. Among plant equipment, piping systems account for the greatest proportion. Therefore, the purpose of this research was to propose an algorithm which could automatically recognize a piping system from the terrestrial laser-scanned data of plant equipment. The straight portion of pipes, connecting parts, and connection relationship of the piping system can be recognized in this algorithm. Normal-based region growing and cylinder surface fitting can extract all possible locations of pipes, including straight pipes, elbows, and junctions. Tracing the axes of a piping system enables the recognition of the positions of these elements and their connection relationship. Using only point clouds, the recognition algorithm can be performed in a fully automatic way. The algorithm was applied to large-scale scanned data of an oil rig and a chemical plant. Recognition rates of about 86%, 88%, and 71% were achieved straight pipes, elbows, and junctions, respectively.

  • To analyze the thermal characteristics of wire connection part that is connected to a screw-clamping terminal block depending on screw torque, the normal screw torque defined in KS C 2625 and the abnormal screw torque that can occur due to loosened screws resulting from defective work or aged deterioration were used as experimental variables. After the same load was applied to normal and abnormal screw torques, the thermal characteristics of the wire connector were measured and compared with a thermal imaging camera. The findings from this study will be used to detect heating due to defective screw torque at terminal block connections during electric safety inspection in the future and minimize the hazard of electric fire.

  • The rolling wear behavior of SM55C is investigated under lubrication. This is a comparative tribological behavior of heat treatment effect for SM55C. Rolling wear test method is used for Ball-on-disk type. Specimens can be classified into two main groups: as-annealing and non-annealing. As result of wear behavior, flanking initial time of non-annealing specimen keep at retard but it have not under high normal load. One of the notable features of annealing specimen is steady flanking initial time for a normal load in this experiment. Failure mechanism of SM55C is due to the fatigue wear such like flanking, pitting etc.. Flanking leads to abruptly fracture of worn surface. Fracture mechanism has a connection with normal load and polishing direction of specimens.

  • In this article, we show that a pseudo-Hermitian magnetic curve in a normal almost contact metric 3-manifold equipped with the canonical affine connection ${\hat{\nabla}}^t$ is a slant helix with pseudo-Hermitian curvature ${\hat{\kappa}}={\mid}q{\mid}\;sin\;{\theta}$ and pseudo-Hermitian torsion ${\hat{\tau}}=q\;cos\;{\theta}$. Moreover, we prove that every pseudo-Hermitian magnetic curve in normal almost contact metric 3-manifolds except quasi-Sasakian 3-manifolds is a slant helix as a Riemannian geometric sense. On the other hand we will show that a pseudo-Hermitian magnetic curve γ in a quasi-Sasakian 3-manifold M is a slant curve with curvature κ = |(t - α) cos θ + q| sin θ and torsion τ = α + {(t - α) cos θ + q} cos θ. These curves are not helices, in general. Note that if the ambient space M is an α-Sasakian 3-manifold, then γ is a slant helix.
