  • The tied braced frame (TBF) system was developed to achieve uniform seismic inelastic demand along the height of multi-storey eccentrically braced steel frames. A modular tied braced frame (M-TBF) configuration has been recently proposed to reach the same objective while reducing the large axial force demand imposed on the vertical tie members connecting the link beams together in TBFs. M-TBFs may however experience variations in storey drifts at levels where the ties have been removed to form the modules. In this paper, the possibility of reducing the discontinuity in displacement response of a 16-storey M-TBF structure by introducing energy dissipating (ED) devices between the modules is examined. Two M-TBF configurations are investigated: an M-TBF with two 8-storey modules and an M-TBF with four 4-storey modules. Three types of ED devices are studied: friction dampers (FD), buckling restrained bracing (BRB) members and self-centering energy dissipative (SCED) members. The ED devices were sized such that no additional force demand was imposed on the discontinuous tie members. Nonlinear response history analysis showed that all three ED systems can be used to reduce discontinuities in storey drifts of M-TBFs. The BRB members experienced the smallest peak deformations whereas minimum residual deformations were obtained with the SCED devices.

  • Shape memory alloy (SMA)-based Superelasticity-assisted Slider (SSS) is proposed as an engineering solution to practically exploit the well-accepted advantages of both sliding isolation and SMA-based recentering. Self-centering capability in SSS is provided by austenitic SMA cables (or wire ropes), recently attracting a lot of interest and attention in earthquake engineering and seismic isolation. The cables are arranged in various novel and conventional configurations to make SSS versatile for aseismic design and retrofit of structures. All the configurations are detailed with thorough technical drawings. It is shown that SSS is applicable without the need for Isolation Units (IUs). IUs, at the same time, are devised for industrialized applications. The proof-of-concept study is carried out through the examination of mechanical behavior in all the alternative configurations. Force-displacement relations are determined. Isolation capabilities are predicted based on the decreases in seismic demands, estimated by the increases in effective periods and equivalent damping ratios. Restoring forces normalized relative to resisting forces are assessed as the criteria for self-centering capabilities. Lengths of SMA cables required in each configuration are calculated to assess the cost and practicality. Practical implementation is realized by setting up a small-scale IU. The effectiveness of SSS under seismic actions is evaluated using an innovative computer model and compared to those of well-known Isolation Systems (ISs) protecting a reference building. Comparisons show that SSS seems to be an effective IS and suitable for earthquake protection of both structural and non-structural elements. Further research aimed at additional validation of the system are outlined.

  • 일반적으로 사용자의 동작 정보는 human-computer interaction 에 유용하게 사용되는데, 이때 사용자의 의도 파악은 주로 움직임의 가속도 정보를 통해 분석된다. 그러나 일반적인 사람의 움직임은 등속 운동 및 미미한 가속도를 수반하는 경우가 많아 기존의 접근 방식으로는 사용자의 모든 움직임을 검출하기 어려운 단점이 있으며, 경우에 따라서는 부자연스러운 움직임을 유발시키기도 한다. 본 논문에서는 이러한 문제를 해결하기 위해 자연스러운 interaction 을 위한 새로운 인터페이스 방식을 제안하고 이의 활용방안에 대해 논의한다. 제안된 시스템은 중력을 기구부의 복원력으로 활용하여, 초기화와 같은 가속도계 기반의 IMU 의 공통적인 문제를 해결하고 또한 비교적 간단한 움직임으로도 다양한 신호 패턴을 생성시킬 수 있도록 하는 것에 그 목적을 둔다.

  • This study reviews the rear or tag axle steering system's concepts and technology applied to commercial vehicles. Most commercial vehicles are large in size with more than two axles. Maneuvering them around tight corners, narrow roads, and spaces is a difficult job if only the front axle is steerable. Furthermore, wear and tear in tires will increase as turn angle and number of axles are increased. This problem can be solved using rear axle steering technology that is being used in commercial vehicles nowadays. Rear axle steering system technology uses a cylinder mounted on one of rear axles called a steering cylinder. Cylinder control is the primary objective of the real axle steering system. There are two types of such steering mechanisms. One uses master and slave cylinder concept while the other concept is relatively new. It goes by the name of smart axle, self-steered axle, or smart steering axle driven independently from the front wheel steering. All these different types of steering mechanisms are discussed in this study with detailed description, advantages, disadvantages, and safety considerations.

  • This paper is the result of research what im-ply the shaman's costume in Korea "Kut" The implications can be summarized as follows: 1) Shaman's costumes in "Kut" are divided into two parts. Namely the one is the position as a priest and the other is the one as God it-self 2) Also shaman's costume were used to ex-press God's character in the ritual "Jae-Cha" These were based on the costume system by one's social position in the times of the Cho-Sun. 3) The reasons why shaman worn the tra-ditional costume are discussed variously. Among those reasons firstly shaman stands for the symbolic significance of each "Kut" as the agent of God. And secondly shaman wore to symbolize the miraculous virtue of God. symbolize the miraculous virtue of God.

  • After strong earthquakes conventional frames used worldwide in multi - story steel buildings (e.g. moment resisting frames) are not well positioned according to reparability. Two innovative systems for seismic resistant steel frames incorporated with dissipative fuses were developed within the European Research Program "FUSEIS" (Vayas et al. 2013). The first, FUSEIS1, resembles a vertical Vierendeel beam and is composed of two closely spaced strong columns rigidly connected to multiple beams. In the second system, FUSEIS2, a discontinuity is introduced in the composite beams of a moment resisting frame and the dissipative devices are steel plates connecting the two parts. The FUSEIS system is able to dissipate energy by means of inelastic deformations in the fuses and combines ductility and architectural transparency with stiffness. In case of strong earthquakes damage concentrates only in the fuses which behave as self-centering systems able to return the structure to its initial undeformed shape. Repair work after such an event is limited only to replacing the fuses. Experimental and numerical investigations were performed to study the response of the fuses system. Code relevant design rules for the seismic design of frames with dissipative FUSEIS and practical recommendations on the selection of the appropriate fuses as a function of the most important parameters and member verifications have been formulated and are included in a Design Guide. This article presents the design and performance of building frames with FUSEIS 1-1 based on models calibrated on the experimental results.

  • The development of technology based on digital technology has made 'hyper connectivity' between different services a reality, and an example of this is the reinforcement of non-face-to-face services. The non-face-to-face service is a service provided by service providers and customers using information and communication and technology without direct contact. Recently, it has expanded to the hotel industry, which is highly dependent on human resources, centering on the restaurant business. Therefore, this study attempted to identify the case of the "R" hotel in the Gangwon region, which is introducing and operating a kiosk, and to confirm the matters to be considered, the system operation method, and expected effects, etc. for hotels that intend to operate it in the future. It is difficult to affirm that the introduction of KIOSK directly reduced labor costs or increased service efficiency, but it seems meaningful that it has improved the convenience of users. In future research, practical research is needed on the impact of the system on management activities in relation to the introduction of KIOSK.

  • In this study an innovative rocking zipper braced frame (RZBF) is proposed to overcome the deficiencies of common concentrically braced frames. RZBF is an improved rocking concentrically braced frame which is based on combination of rocking behavior and zipper columns. The base rocking joints and post-tensioned bars provide rocking response and restoring force, respectively. Also, zipper columns distribute the unbalance force over the frame height and reduce the damage concentration. To evaluate seismic performance of RZBF, a comparison study is carried out considering concentrically braced frame, zipper braced frame, rocking concentrically braced frame and RZBF. Thereby, a suite of non-linear time history analyses had been performed on four different types of archetypes with four, six, eight, ten and twelve stories. Frames were designed and non-linear time history analyses were conducted in OpenSees. To compare the seismic behavior of the archetypes, roof drifts, residual roof drifts, story drifts, the forces of first and top story braces, PT bars forces, column uplift and base shears were taken in to consideration. Results illustrate that using RZBF, can reduce the damage due to reduced residual drifts. Zipper columns enhance the seismic performance of rocking systems. As the number of stories increase in the RZBF systems, larger top story braces were needed. So the RZBF system is applicable on low and midrise buildings.
