The need for assessing dynamic response of typical industrial piping systems subjected to seismic loading motivated the authors to apply model reduction techniques to experimental dynamic substructuring. Initially, a better insight into the dynamic response of the emulated system was provided by means of the principal component analysis. The clear understanding of reduction basis requirements paved the way for the implementation of a number of model reduction techniques aimed at extending the applicability range of the hybrid testing technique beyond its traditional scope. Therefore, several hybrid simulations were performed on a typical full-scale industrial piping system endowed with a number of critical components, like elbows, Tee joints and bolted flange joints, ranging from operational to collapse limit states. Then, the favourable performance of the L-Stable Real-Time compatible time integrator and an effective delay compensation method were also checked throughout the testing campaign. Finally, several aspects of the piping performance were commented and conclusions drawn.

This paper presents a branch prediction algorithm and a 4-way set-associative cache for performance improvement of an embedded RISC core and a clock-gating algorithm with observability don’t care (ODC) operation to reduce the power consumption of the core. The branch prediction algorithm has a structure using a branch target buffer (BTB) and 4-way set associative cache that has a lower miss rate than a direct-mapped cache. Pseudo-least recently used (LRU) policy is used for reducing the number of LRU bits. The clock-gating algorithm reduces dynamic power consumption. As a result of estimation of the performance and the dynamic power, the performance of the OpenRISC core applied to the proposed architecture is improved about 29% and the dynamic power of the core with the Chartered 0.18 ${\mu}m$ technology library is reduced by 16%.

In general, anionic and cationic surfactants are incompatible because their mixtures form insoluble complexes. There are, however, some complexes that are soluble and behave like regular surfactants, specifically like nonionic surfactants, thus named pseudo-nonionic surfactant complexes. Pseudo-nonionic complexes are more effective and efficient than their ionic surfactant components as shown by their equilibrium and dynamic surface tensions and interfacial tensions. They pack at the interface more than their ionic components. Since, pseudo-nonionic complexes show their own characteristics, they can be treated as separate classes of surfactants distinct from ionic and nonionic surfactants. Novel cationic surfactant was synthesized, having the polyhydroxyl group at the head group. We found that aqueous mixtures of our cationic surfactant and usual anionic surfactant(SDS) could form homogeneous solutions even at high concentration. The properties of mixed surfactant solutions were measured. Foam stability, CMC(critical micelle concentration), water hardness tolerance and thickening effect were tested. The foam stability of mixed surfactants was very good and various synergy effects were observed.

최근 새로운 3차원 와이어 다공질 형태의 카고메 트러스 이력형 제진장치가 개발되어, 건축물의 내진성능 개선을 위한 제진장치로서의 적용가능성이 재료실험을 통하여 검증되었다. 본 연구에서는 카고메 트러스 이력형 제진장치를 RC 라멘조 공동주택에 외부접합 한 새로운제진구조시스템을 제안하였다. 카고메 외부접합형 제진구조시스템은 대상건물, 카고메 제진장치, 지지구조물로 구성되어 있으며, 기존 층간에 설치된 제진시스템과 달리 외부 지지 구조물과 대상 건축물의 상호작용을 이용하여 제진장치가 지진 에너지를 흡수하는 시스템이다. 본 연구에서 제안한 카고메 외부접합형 제진공법의 유효성을 검증 할 목적으로 LH공사 시범적용용 RC 라멘조 20층 공동주택의 골조를 대상으로 유사동적실험을 실시하여 내진성능 개선효과를 검토하였다. 그 결과, 국내에서 발생 가능한 지진규모 (200gal)에서 비보강 골조는 중규모의 지진피해가 예상되었지만, 카고메 외부접합형 제진보강법으로 보강한 골조는 경미한 지진피해가 예상되었으며, 대규모 지진(300gal)을 상정한 경우에도 중규모 이하의 지진피해가 예상되어 본 연구에서 개발한 카고메 제진보강법의 내진성능 개선 효과의 유효성이 검증되었다고 사료된다.

The design requirement for ground mounted sign structures are fairly well defined in the AASHTO Standard Specifications for Structural Supports for Highway Signs, Luminaries, and Traffic Signals and consists of applying an equivalent pseudo-dynamic loading to account for the dynamic effects of wind loads and ignores the dynamic effect due to moving vehicle loads. This design approach, however, should not be applied to the design of bridge mounted sign structures because ignoring the dynamic effects of the moving vehicle loads may produce non-conservative results, since the stiffness of the bridge structure can greatly influence the behavior. Not enough information is available in the literatures which provide guide lines to include the influence of moving vehicles in the design of the bridge mounted sign structures. This paper describes a theoretical methodology, Bridge-Vehicle Interaction Element, which can be utilized to account for the dynamic effect of moving vehicles. A case study is also included where this methodology was successfully applied. It was concluded that the bridge-vehicle interaction finite element developed can provide a more accurate representation of the behavior of bridge mounted sign structures. The result of these analysis enabled development of simple and effective retrofitting scheme for the existing support system of bridge-mounted-structure.

In conventional GPS/DR integration schemes, the GPS position (or pseudo-range) information is used in calibrating DR sensors. In those schemes, however, an inaccurate calibration may degrade the position accuracy when the GPS measurement is not available. This paper presents a new integration scheme where the GPS velocity information is used in calibrating DR sensors. Also proposed is a new error model of DR sensors for calibrating the bias error and the tilt error in dynamic environments. The proposed model makes it possible that the errors of both the DR sensor parameters and the velocity are calibrated using the GPS carrier-based velocity(or the pseudo-range rate) measurement while the DR position error is calibrated using the GPS position measurement. Since the DR sensors are calibrated accurately, the positioning accuracy is drastically improved when the GPS measurements are unavailable.

The purpose of this study is to suggest a proper analysis model that can evaluate seismic stability for local rock foundation of nuclear power plant. Sliding Analysis, Pseudo-static Analysis and Danamic Analysis methods are used for analysing NPP rock foundation with the conditions like acting directions of input earthquake, boundary conditions, width and depth of analysing model, and modeling methods of weakness fault zones. As the results of study, Pseudo-static Analysis for lateral roller and dynamic analysis for transfer boundary condition showed good results, and analysing ranges of width and depth were 5 times of structure width and over 2 times of structure depth.

The reliability of the product can be improved by making the product less sensitive to noises. Especially, it Is important to make products robust against various noise factors encountered in production and field environments. In this paper, the phenomenon of degradation assumes a simple random coefficient degradation model to present analysis procedures of degradation data for robust experimental design. To alleviate weak points of previous studies, such as Taguchi's, Wasserman's, and pseudo failure time methods, novel techniques for analysis of degradation data using the cross array that regards amount of degradation as a dynamic characteristic for time are proposed. Analysis approach for degradation data using robust experimental design are classified by assumptions on parametric or nonparametric degradation rate(or slope). Also, a simulation study demonstrates the superiority of proposed methods over some previous works.

This paper proposes an efficient beam-shell modeling technique for the free vibration analysis of a T-joint thin-walled beam structure. Except a small portion of a T-joint which is modeled by shell elements, the structure is modeled by thin-walled beam elements that can describe warping and distortion. In order to match the shell and thin-walled beam elements at the interface of the dissimilar elements, a technique based on a pseudo inverse matrix is formulated. This paper also examines the role of the thin-walled element taking into account the distortion and warping deformation degrees of freedom in predicting accurately the dynamic characteristics of a T-joint thin-walled structure.

동일 지점을 촬영한 위성영상은 위성의 센서나 영상의 취득 시기, 지형의 상태 등에 따라 그 지점에 나타나는 화소값이 일정하지 않다. 이러한 영상은 영상간 모자이크나 변화 탐지 결과에 영향을 미칠 가능성이 높으므로 방사보정(또는 방사정규화)을 통해 화소값의 차이를 최소화시킬 필요가 있다. 본 연구는 선형회귀식을 적용한 상대 방사정규화에 초점을 맞추고 있으며, 선형회귀식 구성에 필요한 PIF(Pseudo Invariant Feature)를 자동으로 추출하기 위해 Ordinal Rank 알고리즘을 적용하였다. 이 방법을 통해 각 밴드별 후보 PIF를 추출하고, 공통으로 해당되는 최종 PIF를 추출할 수 있었다. RMSE(Root Mean Square Error), Dynamic range, Coefficient of variation 등을 통해 방사보정 후의 결과를 평가해보았다. 영상회귀를 이용한 방사보정알고리즘과의 비교를 통해 제안된 알고리즘이 갖는 장점을 확인하였다.
