  • The concept design of the typha strawbale masonry came up as a result of the urgent demand for a means of constructing sustainable buildings, both in rural and urban settlement, not only suitable for dwellers but for keeping farm products by structures that will respond to the environmental eco-system, coupled with the fact that such structures are also affordable, durable and easy to maintain during their service period. The effects of contact between plaster and the stacked strawbale of a masonry needs to be established and design optimization for durability and stability of the masonry be obtained. The assessment will involve the application of plaster materials (cement and natural earth) to the wall specimen panels. Past works have shown that plastered strawbale walls have adequate resistance against the appropriate vertical loads, and further showed that the earth plaster can bear higher stress than the cement plastered straw bale. There is the implication that the collapse or response of the earth-strawbale wall is significantly higher compared to that of cement-strawbale from other straw-based masonries. Therefore the allowable stresses of plastered typha strawbale shall be predicted for their optimum values using SAP2000. The stress stability of each masonry is obtained by analytical model using the best fit variables for the wall height and thickness.

  • Hydrodynamic ram of aircraft fuel tanks is one of main ballistic battle damages of an aircraft and has great importance to airframe survivability design. Basic concept, physics and research history of hydrodynamic ram are investigated. The penetration and internal detonation of a simple fuel tank and ICW(Intermediate Complexity Wing) are analyzed by computational method. Structural rupture and fluid burst are analytically realized using general coupling and coupling surface interaction. The results such as fluid pressure, tank stress and displacement are shown and future research chances are suggested based on the study.

  • In this study, we identified the conceptions of heat and temperature on a basis of the science history, and analyzed the explanation types in elementary, and secondary school science textbooks. From these data, we tried to discover the cause of students' misconceptions. The results revealed that the explanation types of the textbooks don't include modem sight. Different conceptions developed in different era mixed in the textbooks. We can infer that students who learn heat and temperature concept by the textbooks could have misconceptions because of the above problems.

  • Taylor series has a complicated structure comprising of various concepts in college major mathematics. This subject is a strong tool which has usefulness and applications not only in calculus, analysis, and complex analysis but also in physics, engineering etc., and other study. However, students have difficulties in understanding mathematical structure of Taylor series convergence correctly. In this study, after classifying students' mathematical characteristic into three categories, we use structural image of Taylor series convergence which associated with mathematical structure and operation acted on that structure. Thus, we try to analyze the understanding of Taylor series convergence and present the results of this study.

  • The size-dependent nonlinear thermomechanical vibration analysis of pre- and post-buckled tapered two-directional functionally graded (2D-FG) microbeams is presented in this study. In the context of the modified couple stress theory, the formulations are derived based on the parabolic shear deformation beam theory and von Karman nonlinear strains. Different thermomechanical material properties are assumed to be temperature-dependent and smoothly vary in both length and thickness directions using the power law and the physical neutral axis concept is employed. The nonlinear governing equations are derived using the Hamilton principle and the resulting variable coefficient equations of motion are solved using the differential quadrature method (DQM) and iterative Newton's method for clamped-clamped and simply supported boundary conditions. Comparison studies are presented to validate the derived model and solution procedure. The impacts of induced thermal moments, temperature power index, two gradient indices, nonuniform cross-section, and microstructure length scale parameter on the frequency-temperature configurations are explored for both clamped and simply supported microbeams.

  • Sub-Kelvin cooling has been generally demanded for the fields of low temperature physics, such as physical property measurements, astronomical detection, and quantum computing. The refrigeration system with a small size can be appropriately introduced when the measurement system does not require a high cooling capacity at sub-Kelvin temperature. The dilution refrigerator which is a common method to reach sub-Kelvin, however, must possess a large 3He circulation equipment at room temperature. As alternatives, a sorption refrigerator and a magnetic refrigerator can be adopted for sub-Kelvin cooling. This paper describes those coolers which have been developed by various research groups. Furthermore, a cold-cycle dilution refrigerator of which the size of the 3He circulation system is minimized, is also introduced. Subsequently, a new concept of dilution refrigerator is proposed by our group. The suggested cooler can achieve sub-Kelvin temperature with a small size since it does not require any recuperator and turbo-molecular vacuum pump. Its architecture allows the compact configuration to reach sub-Kelvin temperature by integrating the sorption pump and the magnetic refrigerators. Therefore, it may be suitably utilized in the low temperature experiments requiring low cooling capacity.

  • In this presentation, the particles at the matter surface (metal, crystal, nano) will be considered as the control target outside the physical domain. As is well known that control problems of quantum particles at surface had been investigated in various aspects in last couple of years, but the realization of control would become rather difficult than theoretical results. Especially, whether surface control would be valid? what kind of particles at what kind of matter surfaces can be controlled? so many questions still left as the mystery in the current research literature and papers. It means that the direct control sometime does not easy. On the other hands, control outside the physical domain is quite a interest consideration in mathematics, physics and chemistry. The main plan is to take the quantum systems operator (such as Laplacian ∆) in the form of fractional operator (∆s , 0 < s < 1), then to consider the control outside of physical domain. Fortunately, there are many published articles in the field of applied mathematics can be referred for the achievement of control outside of domain. The external quantum control would be a fresh concept to do the physical control, first in the theoretic, second in the computational, final in the experimental issues.

  • Piezoelectric ceramics play an important role in electrical and electronic devices such as sensors, actuators, and microelectronic devices. However, traditional ceramics are difficult to be used in various process industries due to their high brittleness and low flexibility. Therefore, piezoelectric paint sensors have been designed for application to the curved surfaces of complicated structures. Furthermore, recently, significant attention has been focused on the development of paint sensors that can be used as structure health monitoring sensors for vibration, impact, and acoustic emission. Several studies have successfully demonstrated the possibility that smart paint sensors can take the place of traditional ceramic sensors. In this review, we briefly introduce the concept of the piezoelectric paint sensors and the expected application field as well as their preparation and history.

  • 본고는 상업용 건물에 있어서의 냉난방부하에 대한 외벽의 축열(열용량)효과를 비교$\cdot$분석하는데 그 목적이 있다. 가장 최근에 발표된 에너지 해석 프로그램인 DOE-2.1C를 이용하여 Berkeley Solar Group (BSG) 이 제안한 축열효과를 분석하였다. 본 고에서의 축열효과는 "delta load"로서 표현되어 있으며 "delta load"는 전형적인 나무구조 건물과 벽돌조 건물의 연간 냉난방부하의 차이로서 표시된다. BSG 보고서에 의하면 delta load는 (1)구조물의 위치와 관련한 단열방법 (2)벽의 열용량 (3)벽의 열관류을 (4)기후조건에 따라 달라진다고 되어 있다. 본 고에서의 delta load 계산은 중규모 사무소 건물을 대상으로 하였으며 Lake Charles, LA와 Madison, WI 기후 데이터를 사용하였는데 DOE-2.1C 사용에 의한 delta load는 BSG의 결과와 일반적으로 잘 조화가 되는 것으로 나타났으나 외주부의 방향에 따른 dalta load와 난방에 있어서는 다소 큰 차이를 보여 주고 있으며, 외단열과 중간열의 효과는 BSG의 결과와 마찬가지로 비슷하였다.
