A dynamic reliability model which can take into account the time history of loading sequences may be applied to the analyses of the hydraulic stability of armor units on rubble-mound breakwaters. All the parameters related to the stability of structures have been considered to be constants in the deterministic model until now. Thus, it is impossible to study the effects of some uncertainties of the related random variables on the stability of structures. In this paper, the dynamic reliability model can be developed by POT(Peak Over Threshold) method in order to take into account the time history of loading sequences and to investigate the temporal behaviors of stability of structure with its loading history. Finally, it is confirmed that the results of dynamic reliability model agree with straight- forwardly those of AFDA(Approximate Full Distribution Approach) of the static reliability model for the same input conditions. In addition, the temporal behaviors of probability of failure can be studied by the dynamic reliability model developed to analyze the hydraulic stability of armor units on rubble-mound breakwaters. Therefore, the present results may be useful for the management of repair and maintenance over the whole life cycle of structure.

The present study investigates numerically nonequilibrium energy transfer between electrons and phonons in metal thin films irradiated by ultrashort pulse lasers and it also provides the temporal and spatial variations of electron and phonon temperatures using the well-established two-temperature model(TTM) on the basis of the Boltzmann transport equation(BTE). This article predicts the crater shapes in gold film structures, and compares the results by using two-dimensional energy transport equation. From the results, it is found that nonequilibrium energy transfer between electrons and phonons takes place, and the equilibrium time increases with the increase of laser fluence. On the other hand, above threshold fluence the ablation time doesn't change nearly with increasing fluences. Compared with one-dimensional TTM, it also reveals that the temporal distributions of electron and phonon temperatures at the top surface estimated by using two-dimensional TTM have a similar tendency. The results show that two-dimensional TTM can simulate the crater shape of metals during the irradiation of femtosecond pulse lasers and the absorbed energy is propagated to z-direction faster than to r-direction.

Wind pressure is a critical argument for the wind-resistant design of structures. The attempt, however, to explore the wind pressure field on buildings still encounters challenges though a large body of researches utilizing wind tunnel tests and wind field simulations were carried out, due to the difficulty in logical treatments on the scale effect and the modeling error. The full-scale measurement has not yet received sufficient attention. By performing a field measurement, the present paper systematically addresses wind pressures on the rectangular attic of a double-tower building. The spatial and temporal correlations among wind speed and wind pressures at measured points are discussed. In order to better understand the wind pressure distribution on the attic facades and its relationship against the approaching flow, a full-scale CFD simulation on the similar rectangular attic is conducted as well. Comparative studies between wind pressure coefficients and those provided in wind-load codes are carried out. It is revealed that in the case of wind attack angle being zero, the wind pressure coefficient of the cross-wind facades exposes remarkable variations along both horizontal and vertical directions; while the wind pressure coefficient of the windward facade remains stable along horizontal direction but exposes remarkable variations along vertical direction. The pattern of wind pressure coefficients, however, is not properly described in the existing wind-load codes.

The main idea of the framework is to seamlessly combine a reasonably accurate and fast surrogate model with the importance sampling strategy. Developing a surrogate model for predicting structures' dynamic responses is challenging because it involves high-dimensional inputs and outputs. For this purpose, a novel surrogate model based on cutting-edge deep learning architectures specialized for capturing temporal relationships within time-series data, namely Long-Short term memory layer and Transformer layer, is designed. After being properly trained, the surrogate model could be utilized in place of the finite element method to evaluate structures' responses without requiring any specialized software. On the other hand, the importance sampling is adopted to reduce the number of calculations required when computing the failure probability by drawing more relevant samples near critical areas. Thanks to the portability of the trained surrogate model, one can integrate the latter with the Importance sampling in a straightforward fashion, forming an efficient framework called TTIS, which represents double advantages: less number of calculations is needed, and the computational time of each calculation is significantly reduced. The proposed approach's applicability and efficiency are demonstrated through three examples with increasing complexity, involving a 1D beam, a 2D frame, and a 3D building structure. The results show that compared to the conventional Monte Carlo simulation, the proposed method can provide highly similar reliability results with a reduction of up to four orders of magnitudes in time complexity.

최근 위치기반 기술의 급속한 발전으로 인하여 이동 객체를 효율적으로 관리하기 위한 색인 구조의 필요성이 증가하고있다. 하지만, 기존에 제안된 색인 구조들은 이동 객체의 계속되는 위치 이동으로 인해 색인의 변경이 발생하고 색인의 빈번한 변경으로 전체적인 색인의 성능이 저하된다. 본 논문에서는 KOB-트리를 기반으로 하는 시공간 색인 구조인 TPKDB-트리를 제안한다. 제안하는 색인 구조는 갱신 비용을 최소화하여 이동 객체 검색의 효율성을 증가시키고 이동 객체를 선형함수로 표현함으로서 불필요한 갱신을 줄이는 방법을 제안한다. 그리고 노드 내에 포함되어 있는 이동 객체의 변화를 시간에 대한 파라미터로 유지함으로서 효율적으로 이동 객체의 미래 위치 검색을 지원한다. 또한, 공간활용도를 최대화하기 위한 새로운 갱신 및 분할 기법을 제안한다. 제안하는 색인 구조의 우수성을 입증하기 위해 다양한 실험을 통해 성능 평가를 수행한다.

Investigation of structural integrity has been a critical issue in the field of civil engineering for years. Visual inspection is one of the most available methods to explore deteriorative components in structures. Still, this method is not applicable to invisible damage of structures. Alternatively, system identification methods are capable of tracking modal properties of structures over time. The deviation of these dynamic properties can serve as indicators to access structural integrity. In this study, a modal tracking technique using frequency-domain system identification from seismic responses of structures is proposed. The method first segments the measured signals into overlapped sequential portions and then establishes multiple Hankel matrices. Each Hankel matrix is then converted to the frequency domain, and a temporal-average frequency-domain Hankel matrix can be calculated. This study also proposes the frequency band selection that can divide the frequency-domain Hankel matrix into several portions in accordance with referenced natural frequencies. Once these referenced natural frequencies are unavailable, the first few right singular vectors by the singular value decomposition can offer these references. Finally, the frequency-domain stochastic subspace identification tracks the natural frequencies and mode shapes of structures through quick stabilization diagrams. To evaluate performance of the proposed method, a numerical study is carried out. Moreover, the long-term monitoring strong motion records at a specific site are exploited to assess the tracking performance. As seen in results, the proposed method is capable of tracking modal properties through seismic responses of structures.

Purpose: To report the use of multiband accelerated echo-planar imaging (EPI) for resting-state functional MRI (rs-fMRI) to achieve rapid high temporal resolution at 3T compared to conventional EPI. Materials and Methods: rs-fMRI data were acquired from 20 healthy right-handed volunteers by using three methods: conventional single-band gradient-echo EPI acquisition (Data 1), multiband gradient-echo EPI acquisition with 240 volumes (Data 2) and 480 volumes (Data 3). Temporal signal-to-noise ratio (tSNR) maps were obtained by dividing the mean of the time course of each voxel by its temporal standard deviation. The resting-state sensorimotor network (SMN) and default mode network (DMN) were estimated using independent component analysis (ICA) and a seed-based method. One-way analysis of variance (ANOVA) was performed between the tSNR map, SMN, and DMN from the three data sets for between-group analysis. P < 0.05 with a family-wise error (FWE) correction for multiple comparisons was considered statistically significant. Results: One-way ANOVA and post-hoc two-sample t-tests showed that the tSNR was higher in Data 1 than Data 2 and 3 in white matter structures such as the striatum and medial and superior longitudinal fasciculus. One-way ANOVA revealed no differences in SMN or DMN across the three data sets. Conclusion: Within the adapted metrics estimated under specific imaging conditions employed in this study, multiband accelerated EPI, which substantially reduced scan times, provides the same quality image of functional connectivity as rs-fMRI by using conventional EPI at 3T. Under employed imaging conditions, this technique shows strong potential for clinical acceptance and translation of rs-fMRI protocols with potential advantages in spatial and/or temporal resolution. However, further study is warranted to evaluate whether the current findings can be generalized in diverse settings.

유비쿼터스 컴퓨팅 및 모바일 기술의 발달에 따라 위치 기반 서비스의 사용이 확대되어 가고 있고 모바일 전자 거래 환경에서 가장 주요한 서비스로 자리 잡고 있다. 하지만, 이와 함께 개인의 위치가 추적되고 노출됨에 의하여 사생활 침해와 같은 문제점들도 대두되고 있다. 본 연구는 개인의 위치를 노출시키지 않고도 시공간 질의를 처리하기 위한 새로운 시공 간 질의 처리 기법을 제안한다. 기존의 사용자 위치 은폐 기술은 사용자의 식별자를 감추거나 위치를 정적인 4분 트리나 격자 구조를 이용하여 은폐하는 방법을 사용하였다. 격자를 이용한 위치 은폐는 단순히 사용자의 식별자를 감추는 방법에 비해서는 우수한 방법이지만 미리 정해진 격자의 크기에 의해 위치를 은폐하므로 객체의 위치 분포에 따라 실제보다 불필요하게 많은 오차를 포함하게 되어 질의 성능이 저하되는 문제점을 지닌다. 본 연구에서는 시공간 질의 처리에 널리 사용되는 R-트리를 이용하여 위치 은폐를 수행하는 기법을 제안한다. R-트리의 노드는 기본적으로 최소 객체 개수를 보장하므로 R-트리의 MBR을 은폐된 위치로 직접 사용하면 위치 분포에 보다 능동적으로 대처할 수 있다. 본 연구는 다양한 실험 을 통하여 R-트리에 기반한 위치 은폐가 기존의 기법들에 비하여 우수한 성능을 보임을 증명하였다.

데이타베이스 관리시스템에서 중요한 문제중의 하나는 효율적인 버퍼관리이다. 데이터베이스 관리시스템에서 객체를 디스크에서 읽어오는 작업은 많은 비용을 필요로 하기 때문에 시스템의 성능을 향상시키기 위해서는 디스크 I/O의 횟수를 최소화하는 것이 매우 중요하다. 지금까지 디스크 I/O 횟수를 줄이기 위한 많은 버퍼관리기법들이 제안되었지만, 그 기법들은 시간적 근접성만을 고려하기 때문에 공간적 근접성도 존재하는 공간데이타베이스 환경에서는 좋은 성능을 보여주지 못했다. 본 논문에서는 공간데이타베이스의 시간적 근접성과 공간적 근접성을 동시에 고려하는 새로운 버퍼관리기법인 Spatial Locality Area Measure(SLAM) 기법을 제안한다. 제안한 버퍼관리기법은 SLM-tree와 M-LRU, 두 개의 구조체로 구성되었으며 공간데이타베이스 환경에서의 다양한 버퍼크기와 참조빈도에 대한 실험에서 뛰어난 성능을 보여준다.
