Recently, the ground motion occurred by vehicles or trains has been recognized one of the major factors of damage of structures nearly the motion source. To isolate the environments from ground motions, it is necessary to understand the wave propagation in half spaces. Especially, Rayleigh wave is the primary concern because it transmits a major portion of the total source energy and decays the energy more slowly with response to distance than the other waves. In this study, the preliminary data(wave length and damping effect) to design the isolating system are obtained. For this, a field dynamic test is performed, using the exciter which can generate the 100kN vertical cyclic load in the range of 1-60 Hz is used. The fifteen accelerometers to measure the ground response are set up in 3 radial direction at intervals of 10 meters in each row. The wave lengths are calculated using the distance and the phase between the measuring points. The damping effects of the Rayleigh-wave are also observed from the experiments.

Hydraulic actuator is a primary component of the hydraulic valve systems. This paper describes a motion characteristic of hydraulic actuator with various configurations of cushion. It plays an important role in protecting the actuator from the shock when the piston reaches the end position. Numerical analyses were conducted by using commercial code, ANSYS with k-${\varepsilon}$ turbulent model. The results for pressure and velocity distributions in the hydraulic actuator with different cushion shapes were graphically depicted.

Surface and interfacial waves in two superposed horizontal inviscid fluids of finite depths are studied. The flow is induced by translating a vertical rigid plate with a prescribed velocity. Analytical solutions that accurately predict the motion of the free surface and the interface are obtained by using a small-Froude-number approximation. Three different velocities of the plate are considered, while flows induced by any arbitrary motion of the plate can be easily analyzed by a linear superposition of the solutions obtained. It is shown that pinching of the upper layer can occur for a sufficiently thin upper layer, which leads to its rupture into small segments. Other interesting phenomena, such as primary and secondary wiggles generated on the interface near the wavemaker, are discussed.

In this paper, we propose a new stereoscopic video conversion methodology that converts two-dimensional (2-D) MPEG-4 video to stereoscopic video. In MPEG-4, each Image is composed of background object and primary object. In the first step of the conversion methodology, the camera motion type is determined for stereo Image generation. In the second step, the object-based stereo image generation is carried out. The background object makes use of a current image and a delayed image for its stereo image generation. On the other hand, the primary object uses a current image and its horizontally-shifted version to avoid the possible vertical parallax that could happen. Furthermore, URFA(Uncovered Region Filling Algorithm) is applied in the uncovered region which might be created after the stereo image generation of a primary object. In our experiment, show MPEG-4 test video and its stereoscopic video based upon out proposed methodology and analyze Its results.

The hunting is the natural characteristics of the railway wheelset which is originated from the contact between the conical type wheel profile and rail. The critical speed of rolling-stock is called when the hunting is occurred, and it is closely connected with vehicle stability. The parameters which influence the hunting motion are like wheel profile, primary spring property and wheelset dimension, etc. The studies for these parameters are reported diversely. In this study, we aim to analyze the influence of parameters on hunting with the change of wheel profile produced by wheel wear and material property produce by aging of primary spring. For this, we made a dynamic model for wheelset and vehicle. Using these models, we analyzed the critical speed with the variations of the parameters like as wheel profile and primary spring property and we show the results.

The discontinuous primary linear synchronous motor is proposed as a driving source in the middle-distance transportation systems in factories and facilities. This paper describes the examination about the acceleration characteristics and a synchronizing method when the secondary mover overlaps with the primary from the inertia travel motion section in the whole of the re-acceleration part.

In this article, thermal post-buckling and primary resonance of the porous functionally graded material (FGM) beams in thermal environment considering the geometric imperfection are studied, the material properties of FGM beams are assumed to vary along the thickness of the beam, meanwhile, the porosity volume fraction, geometric imperfection, temperature, and the elastic foundation are considered, using the Euler-Lagrange equation, the nonlinear vibration equations are derived, after the dimensionless processing, the dimensionless equations of motion can be obtained. Then, the two-step perturbation method is applied to solve the vibration problems, the resonance and thermal post-buckling response relations are obtained. Finally, the functionally graded index, the porosity volume fraction, temperature, geometric imperfection, and the elastic foundation on the resonance behaviors of the FGM beams are presented. It can be found that these parameters can influence the thermal post-buckling and primary resonance problems.

Impacts on the atmospheric circulation and ocean system over the Mediterranean during boreal summer are investigated using Coupled Model Intercomparison Project Phase 5 (CMIP5) historical simulations (from 1911 to 2005). As the climate warms, global and remote effects lead to a strengthening in descending motion, an increase in sea surface temperature (SST) and surface dryness, but a decrease in marine primary production over the Western Mediterranean. The global effect is estimated from interannual variability over the global mean SST and the remote effect is driven by diabatic forcing generated from the South and East Asian summer monsoons. On the other hand, a local contribution leads to the strengthened descending motion and increased surface dryness over the Eastern Mediterranean, whereas the marine primary production over this region tends to increase due to possibly the urban wastewater and sewage. Our result suggests that particular attention needs to be paid to conserve the marine ecosystem over the Mediterranean.

This case study is to embody the birth of a beautiful goddess out of seashells in a contemporary fashion design collection, on the basis of the mythology of The Birth of Venus. The main theme attempts to reinterpret the image of the goddess of love and beauty and express the organic vitality of seashells and oceanic feelings by swirls in motion. To accomplish this, three dimensional silhouette of layered forms of voluminous outer and fitted inner is applied to design ideas with spiral curves. The opposite texture of something sculptural and transparent versus smooth and shiny is used to express the layered structure of seashells with the delicacy of goddess. Neutral colours and different tones of pink appeal to oceanic feelings and feminine emotion in a modern way. Various techniques by the geometric simplicity of flat patterns and pleating with boning are also performed to express the vital movement of organism. Throughout the whole process of this case study, the conceptual idea of Swirls in Motion - a goddess and seashells is reinterpreted to a contemporary fashion by personal and creative design development process. In particular, it is evaluated by the process of primary researches, various design developments and experimentations to the main theme.
