In the framework of the Generation IV research and development project, in which the French Commission of Alternative and Atomic Energies (CEA) is involved, a main objective for the design of Sodium-cooled Fast Reactor (SFR) is to meet the safety goals for severe accidents. Among the severe ones, the Unprotected Transient OverPower (UTOP) accidents can lead very quickly to a global melting of the core. UTOP accidents can be considered either as slow during a Control Rod Withdrawal (CRW) or as fast. The paper focuses on fast UTOP accidents, which occur in a few milliseconds, and three different scenarios are considered: rupture of the core support plate, uncontrolled passage of a gas bubble inside the core and core mechanical distortion such as a core flowering/compaction during an earthquake. Several levels and rates of reactivity insertions are also considered and the thermal-mechanical behavior of an ASTRID fuel pin from the ASTRID CFV core is simulated with the GERMINAL code. Two types of fuel pins are simulated, inner and outer core pins, and three different burn-up are considered. Moreover, the feedback from the CABRI programs on these type of transients is used in order to evaluate the failure mechanism in terms of kinetics of energy injection and fuel melting. The CABRI experiments complete the analysis made with GERMINAL calculations and have shown that three dominant mechanisms can be considered as responsible for pin failure or onset of pin degradation during ULOF/UTOP accident: molten cavity pressure loading, fuel-cladding mechanical interaction (FCMI) and fuel break-up. The study is one of the first step in fast UTOP accidents modelling with GERMINAL and it has shown that the code can already succeed in modelling these type of scenarios up to the sodium boiling point. The modeling of the radial propagation of the melting front, validated by comparison with CABRI tests, is already very efficient.

In thin plate welding, welding deformation is deformation is produced in special form like buckling distortion, which is different from one in thick plate welding, large quantitatively, and has complicated form. Therefore, a particular countermeasure to prevent the welding deformation in manufacturing process is requested. Otherwise it takes more time to straighten the welding deformation than to fabricated a steel structure newly and in case of failing to straighten the welding deformation in beginning of the flame straightening process, even if the flame straitening is completed, the appearances is not good and sometimes eve refabrication is needed. To minimize these problems. In this present paper, the effects of the condition of support pin on out-of plane deformation produced by thin plate Butt welding in investigated through experiment and the countermeasure to prevent the welding deformation in suggested.

Preloading Strut applied during installation of the wall jack, but additionally serves to minimize the displacement of soil pressure acting upon dissolution due to the difficulty. In this study, we developed an index of support for the release of stress to facilitate the dismantling of the strut uninstall. The refractive support the axial force acting on the strut are supportable, is refracted at minimum load, disassembly should be easy. In order to find the optimal shape and structural stability of the refractive support We have performed the numerical analysis and performance test to determine the final model. We carried out model tests and UTM test in order to understand the refractive performance and durability of the refractive support for optimal model. Results of the test UTM is refracted all shot 5 times within a target hit number, it was found that there is no problem of the refractive performance. Further, the results of model experiments, it was found that to ensure sufficient durability more than the performance target value of the pin joint support structure.

In this study, we tried to secure basic data to create an environment necessary for distance learning through a survey on professor demand. Among the 184 full-time faculty members of the university, 73 (39.89%) respondents in 2021 and 87 (47.28%) in 2022 were included. As a result of the research on professor demand, in the 2021 school year, 27 people (37%) were classified as LMS improvement items when checking attendance, 38 people (23.3%) were pin-mics as content development support items, and 26 people (35.6%), 33 people (45.2%) of GOM Mix and 25 people (34.2%) of the distance education support center wanted to learn video editing program as the item of video editing program they are currently using. In the 2022 school year, 27 people (31.03%) said mobile upgrade as an LMS improvement item, 52 people (59.8%) of pin-microphone as a content development support item, 33 people (37.9%), but currently using the content creation intention using a studio. As for the video editing program they are working on, 47 people (54%) of GOM Mix Pro and 23 people (26.4%) of the distance education support center want to learn content creation method. In addition, the intention to produce content using the studio for the 2021 and 2022 academic year and the desired educational topic of the distance education support center in the future appeared insignificant (p > 0.05). In this distance education support center, we are working to solve the class of LMS attendance, upgrade mobile, and plan to distribute pin microphones. We are planning to increase the usability of the studio and provide training on how to use video editing programs and how to create video content. In order for a smooth class to take place in a university distance class, the university authorities should seek ways to support the instructor so that he/she does not have difficulties in performing his/her role as a teaching designer, such as setting learning goals, organizing and organizing content, motivating learning, and establishing effective class participation plans. there is a need

Currently, there are various security methods in smart phone. Among them, pin number and pattern lock were used long as they were used from early smart phone. However, security is weak that much. The security of pin number is slightly high, but the security of conventional pattern lock remains moderate. However, the conventional pattern lock is still used by several people because of convenience. This is because some users' smart phones don't support biometric security. The most convenient security method for devices that don't support biometric security is pattern lock. However, this method is vulnerable to shoulder surfing attack and smudge attack. Therefore, we introduce random pattern lock that solves the vulnerability of the conventional pattern lock while maintaining the convenience of the pattern lock. This is a lock method that places each point placed on the screen in a circular shape and assigns a random number to it. Therefore, If this is introduced, It's expected to solve vulnerability.

This paper proposes a novel reconfigurable microstrip antenna based on alternating a perturbation structure to achieve circular polarization diversity. The proposed antenna consists of an annular ring microstrip radiator for simultaneously loading stub and slot perturbations which support right- and left-handed circular polarization senses and two PIN diodes for choosing the operating polarization sense. By controlling the states of two PIN diodes between perturbing slot and stub at one diagonal corner of the radiator, reconfigurable circular polarization senses of the proposed antenna are successfully obtained and alternated. The proposed antenna has been theoretically analyzed and experimentally demonstrated at 2.4 GHz of S-band for satellite communication system. The simulation and measurement results of the proposed antenna show in good agreement with the reflection coefficients, axial-ratios, realized antenna gains, and radiation patterns.

IEEE 1149.1 test architecture was proposed to support the test of elements within the boards. It is a large serial shift register that uses the TDI pin as an input and the TDO pin as an output. Even though it performs the board level test perfectly, there is a problems of running system level test when the boards are equipped to the system. To test real time operation signal on test pin, output speed of serial shift register chain must be above double clock speed of shift register. In this paper, we designed a runtime test architecture and a runtime test procedure under running system environments to capture runtime signal at system clock rate. The suggested runtime test architecture are simulated by Altera Max+Plus 10.0. through the runtime test procedure. The simulation results show that operations of the suggested runtime test architecture are very accurate.

Fundamental failure mode in a laminated composite pinned joint is proposed to assess damage resulting from stress concentration in the plate. The joint area is a region with stress concentrations thus a complicated stress state exists. The modeling of damage in a laminated composite pinned joint presents many difficulties because of the complexity of the failure process. In this study, the effect on the bearing strength of the pin jointed Carbon Fiber Reinforced Plastics (CFRP) composites for magnet support structure of KSTAR tokamak with various parameters such as edge distance to diameter, width to diameter, and the temperature of $23^{\circ}C$, $-76^{\circ}C$, and $-196^{\circ}C$ was examined by comparing the experimental results with finite element analysis.

In this study, the durability due to the fork shape of excavator bucket is investigated. The analysis is carried out by modelling the fork shape used in general. As the analysis condition, the pin is constrained as fixed support at the bucket and the load of 12000N is applied at the fork. As the study result, the maximum equivalent stresses at models 1 and 2 are shown as 56.895MPa and 54.722MPa respectively. Model 1 is shown to have the most deformation of 5.6686 mm among four models. Model 3 has the least deformation among four models and the maximum deformation of model 3 is shown as 4.948mm. The fatigue analyses are also carried out with three models. Each model shows the same fatigue lives under the identical fatigue loads. The damage part at each model is shown at the bucket pork or the pin connected with bucket. As this study result, the data is thought to contribute to the safety design at excavator bucket.

This study focused on the mechanical and hydraulic characteristics of underwater tunnels based on Mohr-Coulomb (M-C), Hoek-Brown (H-B) and generalized H-B failure criteria. An improved approach for calculating stress, displacement and plastic radius of the circular tunnel considering hydraulic-mechanical coupling was developed. The innovation of this study was that the radius-incremental-approach was reconstructed (i.e., the whole plastic zone is divided into a finite number of concentric annuli by radius), stress and displacement of each annulus were determined in terms of numerical method and Terzaghi's effective stress principle. The validation of the proposed approach was conducted by comparing with the results in Brown and Bray (1982) and Park and Kim (2006). In addition, the Rp-pin curve (plastic radius-internal supporting pressure curve) was obtained using the numerical iterative method, and the plastic radius of the deep-buried tunnel could be obtained by interpolation method in terms of the known value of internal supporting pressure pin. Combining with the theories in Carranza and Fairhurst (2000), the improved technique for assessing the reliability of the tunnel support was proposed.
