Objective : The main purpose of this study was to analyze the structural relationship among factors that have an impact on Health-Related Quality of Life (HRQOL) in three groups: A stroke patient group (Exp 1), high-risk stroke patient group (Exp 2), and a normal control group.Methods : For this survey, we conducted a secondary analysis using ‘the fifth Korea national health and nutrition examination survey (2010-2011)’, and investigated 2,293 elderly people over 65 years in age.Results :The results were as follows: HRQOL had a significant difference among groups (control›Exp2›Exp1) (p<.05). In the total effect of the experimental 1 groups, their HRQOL was significantly affected by their mental health (β=.425), self-rated health (β=.391), and medical health (β=.290)(p<.05). In the total effect of the experimental 2 group, their HRQOL was significantly by their self-rated health (β=.425), medical health (β =.272), mental health (β=.249), and functional health (β=.234) (p<.05). In the total effect of the control group, their HRQOL was significantly affected by their self-rated health (β=.398) and mental health (β=.184)(p<.05).Conclusion : In conclusion, this study suggested two matters to improve the HRQOL in people with or without a stroke. First, to improve the HRQOL in people suffering from senility, a different approach is needed according to whether the person has had or not had a stoke. Particularly in stroke patients, we should treat both their physical disability and mental health. Second, regardless of whether they have had a stroke, their HRQOL is influenced strongly by their self-rated level of health, and therefore an improvement of HRQOL will be induced by promoting positive health behaviors.

In this study we developed an integrated precast concrete decks for a rapid construction. The structural performance in the integrated precast bridge decks is evaluated by real-scale test bed and detailed finite element analyses. The numerical analysis results were compared with the experimental data from a real-scaled single-span precast/prestressed concrete bridge decks under truck loading. Parametric studies are focused on the various effects of external loads on the structural behavior for different locations and measuring points on the precast bridge decks. The assessment in this study indicates that the integrated precast bridge decks show an excellent structural performance as expected.
Various hybrid dampers have been developed as increasing tall buildings in Korea. To minimize the installment space and cost, the new hybrid friction damper was developed using friction components. It is composed of two one-nodal rotary frictional components and a slotted bolted frictional connection. Because of these components, hybrid friction damper can be activated by building movements due to lateral forces such as a wind and earthquake. In this paper, displacement amplitude dependency tests were carried out to evaluate on the structural performance and the multi-slip mechanism of the hybrid damper. Test results show that the multi-slip mechanism is verified and friction coefficients are increasing as displacement amplitudes are increasing.

Numerical analysis was carried out to investigate the variation of stress and strain characteristics for the rail device in stone board cutting system. The maximum equivalent stress and strain from the vertical load acting on the device decrease as the load moves forward. Also, the maximum equivalent stress appears near the end of left, and the equivalent force of right rail device was about 1.8 times higher than that of left rail device. The variation of stress and strain distributions was remarkable at the edge of the device, and it has a strong influence on the bottom and column. These results can be applicable to optimal design of the stone board cutting device for the system safety.
The chassis frame generally consists of side members, cross beams, and several mounting brackets. Strength and fatigue behaviors of welded joints between members and brackets in a frame are a very complex phenomena, which comes basically due to the structural geometry, non-homogeneous material, and welding residual stresses. Therefore, the prediction of fatigue life for the welded structure is very difficult compared to that for the simple geometry. This paper presents the structural and fatigue analysis results for a body frame and welded joints under system durability loads. In order to fatigue assessment of welded joints, local stress approach is used for its simplicity, which is based on the several empirical S-N curves that are associated with welded joint types and loading modes. The estimated fatigue cycles of the welded areas in a frame were satisfied the target cycles under system load conditions.
A Blast valve is the device that is used in the air intake and the exhaust vent of CBRN(Chemical, Biological, Radiological and Nuclear warfare) protection facility. The valve is automatically closed when explosion pressure is applied from the outside of equipment. This study is investigated on the structural design and the performance of blast valve. After modeling the entire of blast valve and spring assembly, the data for the spring parameter is obtained through the finite element method and the operating limits of the valve are derived. Also, a prototype is made to determine the relationship between the load and the opening closing amount of valve through the load cell test. The performance of prototype at analysis as blast valve is agreed well with that at experiment. It is verified that the blast valve proposed in this paper is designed with the structure to endure the explosion pressure.
GRP pipe (Glass-fiber Reinforced Plastic Pipe) lines making use of FRP (Fiber Reinforced Plastic) are generally thinner, lighter, and stronger than the existing concrete or steel pipe lines, and it is excellent in stiffness/strength per unit weight. In this study, we present the result of field test for buried GRP pipes with large diameter(2,400mm). The vertical and horizontal ring deflections are measured for 387 days. The short-term deflection measured by the field test is compared with the result predicted by the Iowa formula. In addition, the long-term ring deflection is predicted by using the procedure suggested in ASTM D 5365(ANNEX) in the range of 40 to 60 years of service life of the pipe based on the experimental results. From the study, it was found that the long-term vertical and horizontal ring deflection up to 60 years is less than the 5% ring deflection limitation.
The performance enhancement of various structural building systems from natural hazards has become an inctreasingly important issue in engineering field. In this paper, visco-elastic(VE) CST30 damping systems were tested under cyclic loadings to evaluate their performance in terms of ductility and energy dissipation. Main test variables are relative shear stiffness, rate of loading frequency, and thickness of specimens to evaluate the seismic capacity based on the performance criteria. This experiment was performed using a total of 12 specimens, subjected to cyclic loadings up to a shear deformation of 500%. All the CST30 dampers provided a ductile and stable hysterestic behavior when subjected to the demands of large shear stiffness and different loading frequencies. The test results showed that the CST30 dampers are an effective damping systems to enhance the buildings performance for remodeling and retrofit of buildings
In this study, a shape design and an analysis considering structural stability were investigated to develop an icosahedron-based hemispherical modular dome. To design this modular dome, a program that can perform icosahedron shape modeling, modularization of joint connection members, and the analysis of structural stability was developed. Furthermore, based on the adopted numerical model, the eigen buckling mode, unstable behavior characteristics according to load vector, and the critical buckling load of the modular dome under uniformly distributed load and concentrated load were analyzed, and the resistance capacities of the structure according to different load vectors were compared. The analysis results for the modular dome suggest that the developed program can perform joint modeling for shape design as well as modular member design, and adequately expressed the nonlinear behaviors of structured according to load conditions. The critical buckling load results also correctly reflected the characteristics of the load conditions. The uniformly distributed load was more advantageous to the structural stability than concentrated load.
PURPOSES: The purpose of this study is to verify traffic accident injury severity factors for elderly drivers and the relative relationship of these factors.
METHODS: To verify the complicated relationship among traffic accident injury severity factors, this study employed a structural equation model (SEM). To develop the SEM structure, only the severity of human injuries was considered; moreover, the observed variables were selected through confirmatory factor analysis (CFA). The number of fatalities, serious injuries, moderate injuries, and minor injuries were selected for observed variables of severity. For latent variables, the accident situation, environment, and vehicle and driver factors were respectively defined. Seven observed variables were selected among the latent variables.
RESULTS: This study showed that the vehicle and driver factor was the most influential factor for accident severity among the latent factors. For the observed variable, the type of vehicle, type of accident, and status of day or night for each latent variable were the most relative observed variables for the accident severity factor. To verify the validity of the SEM, several model fitting methods, including , GFI, AGFI, CFI, and others, were applied, and the model produced meaningful results.
CONCLUSIONS: Based on an analysis of results of traffic accident injury severity for elderly drivers, the vehicle and driver factor was the most influential one for injury severity. Therefore, education tailored to elderly drivers is needed to improve driving behavior of elderly driver.
This study investigates the property of crack growth at the specimen of structural steel. The behaviour of fracture mechanics on the specimens with only a center crack and with holes existed symmetrically near a center crack is studied. The tensile load is applied on the specimens with these conditions. Stress intensity factors are obtained by the basis of these experimental values and these values are verified with the structural analysis of finite element method. As the length of center crack becomes larger in case of the specimen with holes existed symmetrically near a center crack, the values of deformation energy and stress become larger. On the contrary, the values of deformation energy and stress become smaller as the length of center crack becomes larger in case of the specimen with only a center crack. By examining the stress intensity factor in this study, this value becomes rather smaller although the length of center crack becomes larger. There is the position where crack is likely to happen or weak part at the mechanical structure or the machine. As the holes are punctured and arranged adequately near this crack or weak part by using the result of this study, the fracture due to it can be prevented.
Structural system involves random conditions such as material property, geometric parameters and applied loads. This is caused by either measurement inaccuracy or system complexity and must be designed to withstand the uncertainties, Random structures may be modelled by using the finite element method using Monte Carlo simulation. It can be applied easily to any structural system with random parameters. The aim of this paper is to find the shape optimal design for the cantilever beam with random input variables to the height and response parameters to the displacement and stresses. The probabilistic design is carried out using ANSYS probabilistic design module in a commercial application software and then the optimal design is sequentially solved. An efficient and practical shape optimal design evaluation method is proposed for the design of the cantilever beam shape. The numerical results are obtained where total volume of the beam, stresses and displacements in the beam treated as constraints

Prestressed concrete PSC girders are efficient in terms of structural performance, economical efficiency and constructability. However, PSC girders have overtuning risk in construction in which extra work needs to protect. The low center of gravity girder (MPC girder) is more stable and easier to construct than the traditional PSC girder, which has tweaked end point and mono-tendon anchor. In this study, we evaluated the structural advantages in the deflection (slope) and stress on the link slab by using the finite element method. As a result, it was found that the reinforcement in the link slab for the bridge continuation may be reduced because of less displacement.
