Two kinds of 4-node plane stress/strain finite elements are presented in this work. They are derived from the modified Hellinger-Reissner variational principle so as to employ the internal incompatible displacement and independent stress fields, or the incompatible displacement and strain fields. The introduced incompatible functions are selected to satisfy the constant strain condition. The elements are evaluated on several problems of bending and material incompressibility with regular and distorted elements. The results show that the new elements perform excellently in the calculation of deformation and stresses.

An experimental investigation of the behavior of steel cords(SC) and SC and Polyethylene(PE) hybrid fiber reinforced cementitious material under compressive and tensile loading is presented. In this experimental research, the tensile and compressive strength and strain capacity of high performance fiber-reinforced cementitious composites(HPFRCC) were selected using the cylindrical specimens. Uniaxial compressive and tensile tests have also been carried out at varying strain rates to better understand the behavior of. HPFRCC and propose the standard loading rate for compressive and tensile tests of new HPFRCC materials. The results show that there is a substantial increase in the ultimate compressive and tensile strength with increasing strain rate.

It is generally reported that most of RC beams strengthened with simply bonded FRP composite is failed by FRP debonding. Also, the flexural performance of RC member strengthened with FRP composite can be calculated using the effective strain of FRP. The effective strain as a result of the debonding failure depends on many variables, such as FRP stiffness including the thickness($t_f$) and modulus of elasticity($E_f$), the amount of FRP but the FRP stiffness is reportedly the most influential. The purpose of this paper, therefore, is to examine effects of FRP stiffness on the flexural strengthening of RC beams. 4 different stiffness of CFRP composite including CFRP sheet and laminae were selected. From the tests, it was found that the flexural performance of RC beams strengthened with CFRP composite can be calculated based on the effective strain of the CFRP composite and the effective strain is inversely proportional to the CFRP stiffness.

An improved method for the selective isolation of high-yielding mutant strains for the production of antifungal antibiotic KRF-001 was investigated. The mutant strain U. V 4, which produces high titer of KRF-001, was selected on the high potency agar plate after ultraviolet light irradiation. The U. V 4 strain produced 2-fold more KRF-001 than the mother strain in production media. Large scale fermentation was performed using the U. V 4 strain in 100$\ell$ fermenter. The antifungal antibiotic KRF-001 secreted into culture broth was detected by HPLC in 24hrs of fermentation.

To estimate the effect of selective breeding on the improvement of growth in olive flounder Paralichthys olivaceus, we compared the growth of a strain selected for rapid growth to that of an unselected strain from a commercial hatchery. The fish strains were fed with either moist pellets (MP) (dry matter, 59.8% crude protein; 14.1% lipid) or extruded pellets (EP) (dry matter, 50.4% crude protein; 13.8% lipid) for 190 days and were reared under similar conditions. The mortality rates were less than 2% and were not significantly different among the experimental groups. The growth rate of the selected fish was significantly greater than that of the unselected fish regardless of the diet type, and both strains fed MP grew significantly faster than those fed EP. The selected fish consumed more feed than the unselected fish. However, there was no significant difference in the feed efficiency between the selected and unselected fish. These results demonstrate that the selected fish exhibited superior growth rates, and that this was associated with a greater intake of food. Thus, selective breeding may be useful for improving the growth of commercial olive flounder.

Despite of outstanding optical performance of glass lens, glass lens have not been widely used because of poor productivity and high cost due to manufacturing process i.e. grinding, polishing. However, press-forming method of glass lens overcomes this disadvantage because of mass production. When glass lens is produced by press-forming method using closed die, it is needed that the volume of glass lens preform precisely measured in order to prevent incomplete products and to increase in life of die. The present paper shows the shortcoming of forming process with closed die, and performs FEM simulation of forming process with open die in order to overcome this shortcoming. The design parameter of open die is selected in standard of assembly with optical module and maintenance of optical performance. FEM simulation is carried out with selected parameter of open die and two basic preform. According to distribution of effective strain in glass lens, optical property of glass lens formed at each set of die and preform is compared.

By using autoradiography and phosphate medium, high phosphate accumulating bacteria were isolated from the soil of protected cultivation area and activated sludge. Selected strain, PO8, was gram-negative, rod/spherial(0.5~0.6$\times$1.0~1.2${\mu}{\textrm}{m}$ in size) and non-motile. PI4, another selected strain, was gram-negative, rod(0.4~0.5$\times$1.5~1.6${\mu}{\textrm}{m}$ in size) and motile. It also had flagella. According to their morphological, physiological and biochemical properties, the stains were identified as Acinetobacter lwoffi PO8 and Chromobacterium lividum PI4, respectively. A. lowoffi PO8 and C. lividum PI4 cultured in the P-1 medium containing 150ppm phosphate were able to uptake high phosphate up to 92% and 85%, respectively after 24 hours at 3$0^{\circ}C$ during liquid culture.

This paper focuses on the formulation and validation of an automatic strategy for the selection of the locations and directions of strain gauges to capture at best the modal response of a blade in a series of modes. These locations and directions are selected to render the strain measurements as robust as possible with respect to random mispositioning of the gauges and gauge failures. The approach relies on the evaluation of the signal-to-noise ratios of the gauge measurements from finite element strain data and includes the effects of gauge size. A genetic algorithm is used to find the strain gauge locations-directions that lead to the largest possible value of the smallest modal strain signal-to-noise ratio, in the absence of gauge failure, or of its expected value when gauge failure is possible. A fan blade is used to exemplify the applicability of the proposed methodology and to demonstrate the effects of the essential parameters of the problem, i.e. the mispositioning level, the probability of gauge failure, and the number of gauges.
