Cantilever sheet pile walls having section thinner than masonry walls are generally adopted to retain moderate height of excavation. In practice, a surcharge in the form of strip load of finite width is generally present on the backfill. So, in the present study, influence of strip load on cantilever sheet pile walls is analyzed by varying the width of the strip load and distance from the cantilever sheet pile walls using finite difference based computer program in cohesionless soil modelled as Mohr-Coulomb model. The results of bending moment, earth pressure, deflection and settlement are presented in non-dimensional terms. A parametric study has been conducted for different friction angle of soil, embedded depth of sheet pile walls, different magnitudes and width of the strip load acting on the ground surface and at a depth below ground level. The result of present study is also validated with the available literature. From the results presented in this study, it can be inferred that optimum behavior of cantilever sheet pile walls is observed for strip load having width 2 m to 3 m on the ground surface. Further as the depth of strip load below the ground surface increases below the ground level to 0.75 times excavation height, the bending moment, settlement, net earth pressure and deflection decreases and then remains constant.

회전원판 위 표면에 작용하는 유동 전단응력은 표면마모를 발생시키는 주원인이다. 유체는 원심력에 의해 가장자리까지 자유표면을 갖는 박막유동으로 전달된다. 표면마모는 받음각 또는 곡률에 따른 전단응력 정도에 비례하여 차이를 보이게 된다. 전산해석을 통한 속도분포 기울기로 받음각에 기준한 곡률의 전단응력비를 비교하였다. 곡률반경 변화에 따른 전단유동의 응력감소를 모델링하여 표면마모를 효율적으로 줄일 수 있는 최적구간을 결정하는 것이 본 연구의 주제이며, 이 연구결과는 회전무화나 박막코팅과 같은 박막유동을 활용하는 기구의 최적설계에 적용될 수 있다.

본 연구에서는 직구동방식의 보이스 코일 모터를 이용한 유도무기 날개 작동기의 최적 설계를 진행하였다. ANSYS Maxwell 상용프로그램으로 전자기장 해석을 수행하여 토크 성능 및 보이스 코일 모터의 특성을 예측하였으며, 운용 각도 범위에서 날개에 작용하는 공력부하가 가장 큰 구간인 양끝단에 해당되는 각도에서 최적화 설계를 수행하였다. 또한, 작동기의 주요 설계 변수를 선정하고, 최적화 설계를 위하여 반응면 기법(Response Surface Method)을 사용하였다. 반응면은 2차 함수로 구성하였고 2차 반응면 구성에 널리 쓰이는 중심합성법을 바탕으로 수치실험점들을 선정하였다. 구성된 반응면의 적합성은 수정결정계수로 판단하였으며, 최종적으로 최적화로 구해진 토크값은 전자기장 해석을 통한 토크값과 거의 동일함을 확인하였다.

눈물 층을 사이에 두고 각막 위에 부착되어 있는 콘택트 렌즈(하드렌즈)에는 모세관 현상에 따른 장력이 렌즈 가장 자리에 균일하게 방사형으로 작용한다. 이러한 장력은 렌즈가 각막에 부착되는 힘의 근원이 된다. 렌즈착용 시 자체 무게에 의한 렌즈의 회전과 렌즈가 평형상태에 도달 한 후 각막에 부착되는 힘을 계산할 수 있는 방정식과 이의 수치 계산 컴퓨터 프로그램을 수립하였으며 이 컴퓨터 모델을 사용하여 렌즈 구경, 렌즈 B.C, 눈물의 점성, 눈물 층의 두께 등의 변수가 렌즈의 평형 위치 및 부착력에 미치는 영향을 모사(simulation)하였다. 일정 각막 B.C에서 렌즈 B.C 증가에 따라 눈물 충의 간격은 급격히 증가하는데 비해 렌즈의 직경 증가는 완만한 간격 증가를 수반한다. 렌즈의 B.C가 증가할수록, 즉 렌즈의 곡률이 완만할수록, 렌즈가 각막에 fitting되는 부착력은 급격하게 감소하며 직경 감소는 완만한 부착력 감소를 초래한다. 렌즈가 각막에 부착되는 순간 렌즈의 무게로 인하여 아래 방향으로의 회전 모멘트가 발생하게 되며 이와 동시에 렌즈 위 부분 눈물 층의 간격이 아래 부분보다 좁아지게 되어 위 방향으로 알짜 힘이 작용하게 되며 이에 따른 역방향 모멘트는 중력에 의한 모멘트를 상쇄하게 되어 렌즈는 일정 위치에서 평형 상태에 도달하게 된다. 렌즈 착용에 수반되는 초기 회전각 또는 회전 변위는 렌즈의 B.C가 증가할수록 급격히 증가하는데 비해 렌즈 구경 증가는 변위 증가율이 완만하다.

This paper reports several plane-strain trapdoor tests conducted to investigate the effects of reinforcement on soil arching development under localized surface loading with a loading plate width three times the trapdoor width. An analogical soil composed of aluminum rods with three different diameters was used as the backfill and Kraft paper with two different stiffness values was used as the reinforcement material. Four reinforcement arrangements were investigated: (1) no reinforcement, (2) one low stiffness reinforcement R1, (3) one high stiffness reinforcement R2, and (4) two low stiffness reinforcements R1 with a backfill layer in between. The stiffness of R2 was approximately twice that of R1; therefore, two R1 had approximately the same total stiffness as one R2. Test results indicate that the use of reinforcement minimized soil arching degradation under localized surface loading. Soil arching with reinforcement degraded more at unloading stages as compared to that at loading stages. The use of stiffer reinforcement had the advantages of more effectively minimizing soil arching degradation. As compared to one high stiffness reinforcement layer, two low stiffness reinforcement layers with a backfill layer of certain thickness in between promoted soil arching under localized surface loading. Due to different states of soil arching development with and without reinforcement, an analytical multi-stage soil arching model available in the literature was selected in this study to calculate the average vertical pressures acting on the trapdoor or on the deflected reinforcement section under both the backfill self-weight and localized surface loading.

This paper shows optimal dimensioning for the corner combined footings to obtain the most economical contact surface on the soil (optimal area), due to an axial load, moment around of the axis "X" and moment around of the axis "Y" applied to each column. The proposed model considers soil real pressure, i.e., the pressure varies linearly. The classical model is developed by trial and error, i.e., a dimension is proposed, and after, using the equation of the biaxial bending is obtained the stress acting on each vertex of the corner combined footing, which must meet the conditions following: 1) Minimum stress should be equal or greater than zero, because the soil is not withstand tensile. 2) Maximum stress must be equal or less than the allowable capacity that can be capable of withstand the soil. Numerical examples are presented to illustrate the validity of the optimization techniques to obtain the minimum area of corner combined footings under an axial load and moments in two directions applied to each column.

The drift force acting on a freely-floating sphere in water of finite depth is studied within the framework of a linear potential theory. A velocity potential describing fluid motion is determined by distribution pulsating sources and dipoles on the immersed surface of the sphere. Upon knowing values of the potential, hydrodynamic forces are evaluated by integrating pressures over the immersed surface of the sphere. The motion response of the sphere in water of finite depth is obtained by solving the equation of motion. From these results, the drift force on the sphere is evaluated by the momentum theorem, in which a far-field velocity potential is utilized in forms of Kochin function. The drift force coefficient Cdr of a fixed sphere increases monotononically with non-dimensional wave frequency ${\sigma}a$. On the other hand, in freely-floating case, the Cdr has a peak value at ${\sigma}a$ of heave resonance. The magnitude of the drift force coefficient Cdr in the case of finite depth is different form that for deep water, but the general tendency seems to be similar in both cases. It is to note that Cdr is greater than 1.0 when non-dimensional water depth d/a is 1.5 in the case of freely-floating sphere.

In order to find out a physical quantity which controls the fatigue life of a structure and to predict the fatigue life of tires, a finite element simulation methodology to use the cracking energy density (CED) and the virtual crack closure technique (VCCT) was proposed and applied to three different tires of a similar size. CED was calculated to predict the location of a crack initiation, and VCCT was used to obtain the strain energy release rate (SERR) at the tip of an initiated crack. Finite element simulations showed that SERR oscillated in the circumferential direction with its minimum occurring just before the contact zone and its maximum occurring just after the center of the contact zone, and SERR was affected significantly by the frictional force acting on the crack surface. In addition, a durability test was conducted to measure the fatigue life of the three tires. The comparison of SERR values with the test data revealed that the fatigue life increased as the amplitude of SERR decreased or as the R-ratio of SERR increased.

Meteorological mechanisms in association with long-range transport of Asian dust in April 2001 have been investigated using weather maps, satellite images, TOMS and surface $PM_{10}$ data, backward trajectories, plus modeling output results (geopotential heights, horizontal wind vectors, potential temperatures, and streamlines). The results indicated that long -range transport of Asian dust to the west coast of North America was associated with strong westerlies between the Aleutian low and the Pacific high acting as a conveyor belt. Accelerating westerly flows due to cyclogenesis at the source regions over East Asia transported pollution from the continent to the central Pacific. When the system reached the Aleutian Islands, the intensity of troughs and the westerlies were amplified in the North Pacific. Thereafter the winds between the Aleutian Islands and the Pacific Ocean were more intensified from the air flow transport of the conveyor belt. Consequently, the strong wind in the conveyor belt enhanced the dust transport from the Pacific Ocean to the west coast of North America. This was evidenced by $PM_{10}$ concentration (maximum of about $100{\mu}g\;m^{-3}$) observed In California. Further evidence of the dust transport was found through the observation of satellite images, the distribution of TOMS aerosol index, and the analyses of streamlines and backward trajectories.
