In this study, the seismic performance of a two-story unreinforced masonry (URM) building was assessed following the linear and nonlinear static procedures specified in the seismic evaluation guideline of existing buildings. First, the provisions to assess failure modes and shear strengths of URM walls and wall piers were reviewed. Then, a two-story URM building was assessed by the linear static procedure using m-factors. The results showed that the walls and wall piers with aspect ratios h_e // (i.e., effective height-to-length ratio) > 1.5 were unsafe due to rocking or toe crushing, whereas the walls with h_e // ≤ 1.5 and governed by bed-joint sliding mainly were safe. Axial stresses and shear forces acted upon individual masonry walls, and wall piers differed depending on whether the openings were modeled. The masonry building was reevaluated according to the nonlinear static procedure for a more refined assessment. Based on the linear and nonlinear assessment results, considerations of seismic evaluation for low-rise masonry buildings were given with a focus on the effects of openings.

When the friction pendulum system and shear keys work together to resist the ground motion, which inclined inputs (non 45°) to the bridge structure, the shear keys in XY direction will be sheared asynchronously, endowed the friction pendulum system with a violent curvilinear motion on the sliding surface during earthquakes. In view of this situation, firstly, this paper abandons the equivalent linearization model of friction and constructs a Spring-Coulomb friction plane isolation system with XY shear keys, and then makes a detailed mechanical analysis of the movement process of friction pendulum system, next, this paper establishes the mathematical model of structural time history response calculation by using the step-by-step integration method, finally, it compiles the corresponding computer program to realize the numerical calculation. The results show that the calculation method in this paper takes advantage of the characteristic that the friction force is always µmg, and creatively uses the "circle making method" to express the change process of the friction force and resultant force of the friction pendulum system in any calculation time step, which can effectively solve the temporal nonlinear action of the plane friction; Compared with the response obtained by the calculation method in this paper, the peak values of acceleration response and displacement response calculated by the unidirectional calculation model, which used in the traditional research of the friction pendulum system, are smaller, so the unidirectional calculation model is not safe.

The AlGaN-based vertical light-emitting diodes (LEDs) on thick GaN epilayer were fabricated by a hydride vapor phase epitaxy with multi sliding boat system. The optical and electrical characteristics of AlGaN-based vertical LEDs were evaluated using a scanning electron microscopy, electroluminescence and I-V measurements. The AlGaN-based vertical LEDs structure has hexagonal symmetry, 500 ㎛ in diameter and above 67 ㎛ in growth thickness. At the room-temperature, the broaded strong peak and relatively high intensity peak were gradually measured at 405 nm with increasing injection current. And a forward operator voltage was measured to be about 7.5 V.

매우 큰 편심하중을 지지하면서 상하로 수직위치를 제어하는 의료용 리프트 칼럼은 수직위치의 정확도를 확보하기 위해 매우 낮은 구조적 변형과 진동은 물론 높은 피로강도가 요구된다. 리프트 칼럼은 일반적으로 3단 슬라이딩 붐구조로 유도전동기로 작동되며, 상하운동에 따라 변동응력을 나타낸다. 본 연구에서는 리프트 칼럼의 상하운동으로 야기되는 변동응력에 따른 피로강도를 수치해석적으로 예측하였다. 한 주기 상하운동에 따른 응력변동은 유한요소해석으로 구하였으며, 피로수명은 Palmgren-miner기법과 재료의 S-N선도를 적용하여 예측하였다. 수치해석의 신뢰성을 확보하기 위하여 리프트 칼럼의 상세형상과 체결부위을 반영한 3차원 FEM모델을 생성하였으며, 칼럼과 패드사이 계면은 접촉조건으로 처리하였다.

4 mol% Yttria-stabilized zirconia (4YSZ) coatings are fabricated by Air Plasma Spray (APS) and Electron Beam Physical Vapor Deposition (EB-PVD) with top coating of thermal barrier coating (TBC). NiCrAlY based bond coat is prepared as 150 ${\mu}m$ thickness by conventional APS (Air Plasma Spray) method on the NiCrCoAl alloy substrate before deposition of top coating. Each 4YSZ top coating shows different tribological behaviors based on the inherent layer structures. 4YSZ by APS which has splat-stacked structure shows lower friction coefficient but higher wear rate than 4YSZ by EB-PVD which has columnar structure. For 4YSZ by APS, such results are expected due to the sliding wear accompanied with local delamination of splats.

Since the isolation bearings undergo large displacements in base-isolated structures, impact with adjacent structures is inevitable. Therefore, in this investigation, the effect of impact on seismic response of isolated structures mounted on double concave friction pendulum (DCFP) bearings subjected to near field ground motions is considered. A non-linear viscoelastic model of collision is used to simulate structural pounding more accurately. 2-, 4- and 8-story base-isolated buildings adjacent to fixed-base structures are modeled and the coupled differential equations of motion related to these isolated systems are solved in the MATLAB environment using the SIMULINK toolbox. The variation of seismic responses such as base shear, displacement in the isolation system and superstructure (top floor) is computed to study the impact condition. Also, the effects of variation of system parameters: isolation period, superstructure period, size of seismic gap between two structures, radius of curvature of the sliding surface and friction coefficient of isolator are contemplated in this study. It is concluded that the normalized base shear, bearing and top floor displacement increase due to impact with adjacent structure. When the distance between two structures decreases, the base shear and displacement increase comparing to no impact condition. Besides, the increase in friction coefficient difference also causes the normalized base shear and displacement in isolation system and superstructure increase in comparison with bi-linear hysteretic behavior of base isolation system. Totally, the comparison of results indicates that the changes in values of friction coefficient have more significant effects on 2-story building than 4- and 8-story buildings.

Recently, the robotic assist system for cardiovascular intervention gets continuously growing interest. The robotic cardiovascular intervention systems are largely two folds, systems for cardiac ablation procedure assist and systems for vascular intervention assist. For the systems, the clinician controls the catheter inserted through blood vessel to the heart via a master console or master manipulator. Most of the current master manipulators have structure of joystick-like pivoting 2 degree of freedom (DOF) handle in the core, which is used in parallel with other sliding switches and input devices. It however is desirable to have customized and optimized design manipulator that can provide clinician with intuitive control of the catheter motion fully utilizing the advantage of the use of robotic structure. A 6 DOF kinematic mechanism that can capture the motion control intention of the clinician in translational 3 DOF and rotational 3 DOF is proposed in this paper. Also, a master-slave motion relationship specially designed for the cardiac catheter manipulation motion is proposed and implemented in an experimental prototype. Design revision for implementation of more efficient motion and experiment in combination with an experimental slave robot system for catheter manipulation are underway.

The driver seat of an automobile is in direct contact with the driver and provides the driver with a safe and comfortable ride. The seat consists of a frame, a rail, and many recliners. In recent years, strength and operating force measurement testing of the recliner have become vital for designing car seats. However, performance evaluation requires expensive testing equipment, numerous seat products, and considerable time. Therefore, the trend is to reduce experimentation through interpretation. This study examines the lubrication of solid lubricant for automotive seat recliners and confirms the friction and wear performance. In this study, the lubrication behavior of solid lubricants for car seat recliners is investigated to ascertain the friction and wear performance and to provide accurate values for the strength analysis. The friction material consists of a pin and a plate made from steel, which is widely used in recliners. The friction and wear under lubrication conditions are measured by a reciprocating friction wear tester. The friction coefficient is obtained according to the load and speed. Based on the obtained results, it is possible to achieve a reduction in the error of the test value and the analysis by providing the friction coefficient and wear of the lubricant. The results can be applied to the analysis of automobile seat design.

대형 구조물에 작용하는 큰 외력은 능동 제어 장치의 제어입력에 포화를 종종 유발한다. 그리고 구조물이 대형화될수록 질량, 강성 등의 파라미터들에 대한 정확한 값을 알기가 어려워지므로, 수학적인 모델과 실제 구조물과의 모델링 오차는 파라미터들에 대한 불확실성으로 제어기의 설계 시에 고려되어야 한다. 그러므로 건축 및 토목 구조물에 대한 능동 진동 제어 방법을 다룰 때 제어기의 안정성을 보장하기 위하여 제어입력의 포화와 계의 파라미터 불확실성을 동시에 고려한 강인 포화 제어기의 설계가 필요하다. 여기에서는 건물의 능동 진동 제어에 연구 및 적용되어진 여러 제어기들 중에서 선형 최적 제어기 LQR, 수정된 뱅뱅 제어기, 포화 슬라이딩 모드 제어기, 강인 포화 제어기의 안정성을 살펴본다. 특히 제안된 강인 포화 제어기의 필요성을 보이기 위하여 LQR, 수정된 뱅뱅 제어기, 포화 슬라이딩 모드 제어기들이 제어입력의 포화나 파라미터 불확실성이 존재하는 경우에 불안정해지는 현상들을 보인다. 2자유도 진동계에 대한 수치 예제와 능동 질량 감쇠기(AMD)를 이용한 2층 구조물에 대한 실험을 통하여 강인 포화 제어기의 강인 안정성을 보인다.

AlGaN는 3.4~6.2 eV까지 넓은 밴드갭을 가지는 직접천이형 반도체이다. 최근에 자외영역의 광소자가 다양하게 응용되면서 자외선 발광이 가능한 AlGaN 역시 주목받고 있다. 이를 위해서는 고품질의 AlGaN 층이 필요하지만 GaN 층위에 AlGaN 층을 성장하는 것은 이들의 격자상수와 열팽창계수 차이로 인해 어렵다. 본 논문에서, multi-sliding boat법이 적용된 혼합소스 HVPE법을 이용하여 GaN template 위에 LED 구조를 성장하였다. 활성층의 Al 조성을 조절함으로써 AlGaN의 격자상수 변화와 광학적 변화를 관찰하고자 하였다. 에피 성장을 위해 HCl과 $NH_3$ 가스를 혼합소스 표면으로 흘려주었고, 수송가스로는 $N_2$를 사용하였다. 소스영역과 성장영역의 온도는 각각 900과 $1090^{\circ}C$로 안정화하였다. 성장 후 샘플은 x-ray diffraction(XRD)과 electro luminescence(EL) 측정을 하였다.
