The structural performance of arches made of few vossoirs with dry-joints

Ernest Bernat-Maso,Lluís Gil,Jordi Marcé-Nogué 국제구조공학회 2012 Structural Engineering and Mechanics, An Int'l Jou Vol.44 No.6

This work approaches the structural performance of masonry arches that have a small ratio between number of vossoirs and span length. The aim of this research is to compare and validate three different methods of analysis (funicular limit analysis F.L.A., kinematic limit analysis K.L.A. and plane stress Finite Element Analysis F.E.A.) with an experimental campaign. 18 failure tests with arches of different shapes and boundary conditions have been performed. The basic failure mechanism was the formation of enough hinges in the geometry. Nevertheless, in few cases, sliding between vossoirs also played a relevant influence. Moreover, few arches didn’t reach the collapse. The FLA and KLA didn't find a solution close to the experimental values for some of the tests. The low number of vossoirs and joints become a drawback for an agreement between kinematic mechanism, equilibrium of forces and geometry constraints. FLA finds a lower bound whereas KLA finds an upper bound of the ultimate load of the arch. FEA is the most reliable and robust method and it can reproduce most of the mechanism and ultimate loads. However, special care is required in the definition of boundary conditions for FEA analysis. Scientific justification of the more suitability of numerical methods in front of classic methods at calculating arches with a few vossoirs is the main original contribution of the paper.

A finite element-experimental study of the impact of spheres on aluminium thin plates

Giancarlo B. Micheli,Larissa Driemeier,Marcílio Alves 국제구조공학회 2015 Structural Engineering and Mechanics, An Int'l Jou Vol.55 No.2

This paper describes a study of the collision of hard steel spheres against aluminium thin circular plates at speeds up to 140 m/s. The tests were monitored by a high speed camera and a chronoscope, which allowed the determination of the ballistic limit and the plate deformation pattern. Quasi-static material parameters were obtained from tests on a universal testing machine and dynamic mechanical characterization of two aluminium alloys were conducted in a split Hopkinson pressure bar. Using a damage model, the perforation of the plates was simulated by finite element analysis. Axisymmetric, shell and solid elements were employed with various parameters of the numerical analysis being thoroughly discussed, in special, the dynamic model parameters. A good agreement between experiments and the numerical analysis was obtained.

The Underutilization of Lifestyle Modifications in Primary Care Medicine

Jean-Marc Lucas(Jean-Marc Lucas ),Karl F. Kozlowski(Karl F. Kozlowski ) 사피엔시아 2019 Exercise Medicine Vol.3 No.-

Chronic disease accounts for the majority of deaths in the United States and is often attributed to obesity. A sedentary lifestyle and poor nutrition are primary contributing factors to the development of obesity and thus chronic disease. Primary care providers are optimally positioned to prescribe exercise and nutrition (lifestyle medicine) as a treatment for chronic disease. Unfortunately, this opportunity seems to be regularly lost. Primary care providers often rely too heavily on weight loss pharmaceuticals and bariatric surgeries to treat obesity. This treatment approach however also does little to prevent and treat the accumulation of chronic diseases. The purpose of this review was to evaluate the efficacy of conventional medical weight loss treatments and determine why primary care providers may not prescribe exercise and nutrition more frequently. Our findings suggest that some primary care providers may be uncomfortable prescribing lifestyle medicine as they receive little formal education in this field. In conclusion, prescription of exercise and nutrition by primary care providers may elicit greater long-term weight loss than current medical weight management practices. Medical management is most likely effective when combined with lifestyle medicine. We propose that primary care providers be better trained in lifestyle medicine through their formal and clinical education. Rates of chronic disease accumulation may potentially decrease if providers prescribe lifestyle medical treatments more frequently.

Thoughts on American Legal Education : Past, Present, and Future

필자는 법전원은 학생들이 졸업후 법조직에 종사하고 성공하기 위하여 필요한 실무교육에 중점을 두는 것을 사명으로 한다는 칼 르웰린과 같은 과거의 위대한 학자가 주장한 바에 전적으로 동의한다. 그러나 르웰린과 마찬가지로, 필자는 法學 아닌 一般大學院 교육전통을 혼합하여 학생들의 內的 領域을 확대하고, 이를 법실무교육의 한 부분으로 하는 것이 우리가 학생들에게 부담하고 있는 負債라고 믿고 있다. 그 절적한 균형점을 찾는 것이 중요한 과제의 하나라 할 수 있다. 우리는 변호사 고용시장의 停滯를 이유로 현재 미국 내에서 제기되고 있는 법전원 및 변호사 수를 감축하자는 논의에 대하여는 동의하지 않는다는 것을 강조하고 싶다. 똑같은 論法이 경제위기 기간에도 나온 바 있다. 한편 이는 유대인과 최근의 이민자들에 의하여 법률시장이 전반적으로 장악되고 있다는 우려가 암묵적으로 이러한 주장의 배경이 되고 있다. 그러나 누구도 “미국에는 너무 많은 변호사”가 있다고 주장할 수 있는 합리적 근거를 댈 수 없다. 현재 형사변호사들은 매일 검사로부터 유죄인부협상을 하도록 강요되고 있는데, 이는 많은 공익변호사들이 합리적으로 사건관리를 할 수 없을 정도로 사건과중으로 압박받고 있기 때문이다. 임차인들은 자신들을 대리할 변호사를 고용할 비용이 없어 거주지에서 쫓겨나고 있는 현실이다. 가정 내 폭력의 피해자들은 자신을 보호할 수 있는 보호영장을 어떻게 집행할 수 있는지 알 수 없어 보호의 범위 밖에서 신음하고 있다. 한마디로 사회 빈민층 미국인들을 도와줄 있는 변호사의 수요는 다른 어느 때보다 많은 현실이며, 그러한 빈민층은 변호사를 선임할 자력이 없다. 만약 주정부가 그러한 빈민층을 위하여 변호사를 선임할 수 있도록 지원하지 않고, 변호사들이 자발적으로 서비스를 제공한다고 보는 것은 비현실적이다. 이러한 문제는 또 다음 기회에 논의할 수 있는 좋은 주제가 될 것이다. In this piece, Dean Marc D. Falk off recounts the history of modern legal education in the United States in order to better understand the nature of the challenges that law schools currently face and to assess the wisdom of proposed reforms of the American legal education system. He notes in particular the historical tension between law as a practical or technical endeavor and law as an academic discipline worthy of a place in the university. American academics have never fully accustomed themselves to the hybrid nature of law and legal education, with the result that they have failed to provide their students with an ideal balance of practical training and an advanced liberal arts education. Making particular reference to structural changes in law firms and the legal employment market, Dean Falkoff proposes a half-dozen reforms for contemporary law schools.

Musical Motion at Different Scales: Creative Analysis and Resynthesis of Musical Contour Spectra

Marc Evanstein(마크 에반스타인) 한국전자음악협회 2020 에밀레 Vol.18 No.-

뮤직 테크놀로지의 문맥에서, 푸리에 분석은 소리의 음색 정보나 문제가 되는 사운드를 밝힐 목적으로, 일반적으로 샘플화된 소리 파동에 직접적으로 적용된다. 대조적으로, 이 글에서는 푸리에 분석을 보다 추상적인 일련의 음악적 시간에 적용하기 위해 “음악적 윤곽선 스펙트럼 탐험자 Spectral Musical Contour Explorer”라는 소프트웨어 도구를 제시한다; 예를 들면, 선율을 시간에 따른 음고 시리즈로, 녹음정보를 시간에 따른 실효RMS 볼륨 측정값의 시리즈로 분석할 수 있을 것이다. 이러한 분석법은 음악작품의 구조 내 현저하게 나타나는, 음악적으로 의미있는 규칙성을 밝혀준다. 더욱이, 서로 다른 시간 척도에서의 주기성은 음악의 구조(예를 들어, 박자, 악구 형식)에서 다차원적인 속성을 반영한다. 마지막으로, 소프트웨어로 분석된 스펙트럼 일부분을 직접 선택한 것에서 새로운 음고와 볼륨 윤곽선을 창의적으로 재합성할 수 있다. 특히, 고전적인 레퍼토리에서 발견되는 선율적, 다이내믹적 윤곽선으로부터 새로운 음악적 재료를 도출해내기 위해 이러한 과정을 활용한 저자의 몇몇 작품들을 논한다. In the context of music technology, Fourier analysis is generally applied directly to sampled sound waves, with the goal of revealing timbral information about the sound or sounds in question. By contrast, this paper presents a software tool (“Spectral Musical Contour Explorer) for applying Fourier analysis to more abstract musical time series; for instance, one can analyze a melody as a time series of pitches, or a recording as a time series of RMS volume measurements. Such analyses can uncover salient and musically meaningful periodicities within the structure of musical works. Moreover, the different time scales of these periodicities reflect the multilevel nature of musical structure (e.g. meter, phrase, form). Finally, the software can be used creatively to resynthesize new pitch and volume contours from a hand-selected portion of the analysed spectrum. In particular, we discuss several compositions by the author that use this process to generate novel musical material from melodic and dynamic contours found in canonical repertoire.
