  • Design equations for anthropometric product design are developed by considering the geometrical relationships of design dimensions and anthropometric dimensions. The present study applied the design structure matrix (DSM) method to the development of design equations for a computer workstation, and compared design values from the design equations with corresponding design values of ergonomic recommendations and existing products. The relationships between design dimensions (e.g., legroom and worktable) were analyzed by a DSM, and then the application order of design equations (e.g., seatpan, backrest, armrest, legroom, and worktable in descending order) was determined. Next, design equations were developed by analyzing the geometric relationships between computer workstation design dimensions and anthropometric dimensions. Finally, design values for a computer workstation were determined by considering a standard posture defined and representative human models (5th, 50th, 95th %ile). The design values calculated using the design equations were similar with those of ergonomic recommendations found in literature and two commercial products measured in the study; however, some design values (e.g., seatpan height) were different due to discrepancy in standard posture. The DSM method would be utilized to systematically analyze the relationships between design dimensions for anthropometric product design.

  • This paper presents a method of elastic-plastic analysis for planar steel frames that provides the accuracy of distributed plasticity methods with the computational efficiency that is greater than that of distributed plasticity methods but less than that of plastic-hinge based methods. This method accounts for the effect of spread of plasticity accurately without discretization through the cross-section of a beam-column element, which is achieved by the following procedures. First, nonlinear equations describing the relationships between generalized stresses and strains of the cross-section are derived analytically. Next, nonlinear force-deformation relationships for the beam-column element are obtained through lengthwise integration of the generalized strains. Elastic-plastic flexibility coefficients are then calculated by differentiating the above element force-deformation relationships. Finally, an elastic-plastic stiffness matrix is obtained by making use of the flexibility-stiffness transformation. Adding the conventional geometric stiffness matrix to the elastic-plastic stiffness matrix results in the tangent stiffness matrix, which can readily be used to evaluate the load carrying capacity of steel frames following standard nonlinear analysis procedures. The accuracy of the proposed method is verified by several examples that are sensitive to the effect of spread of plasticity.

  • In this article, a study of generalized Bateman's matrix polynomials is presented. We obtained partial differential equations by using differential operators in the generalized Bateman's matrix polynomials for two variables. Then we introduced some different recurrence relationships of the generalized Bateman's matrix polynomials. Finally present the relationship between the generalized Bateman's matrix polynomials of one and two variables.

  • For the spatially coupled free vibration analysis of composite box beams resting on elastic foundation under the axial force, the exact solutions are presented by using the power series method based on the homogeneous form of simultaneous ordinary differential equations. The general vibrational theory for the composite box beam with arbitrary lamination is developed by introducing Vlasov°Øs assumption. Next, the equations of motion and force-displacement relationships are derived from the energy principle and explicit expressions for displacement parameters are presented based on power series expansions of displacement components. Finally, the dynamic stiffness matrix is calculated using force-displacement relationships. In addition, the finite element model based on the classical Hermitian interpolation polynomial is presented. To show the performances of the proposed dynamic stiffness matrix of composite box beam, the numerical solutions are presented and compared with the finite element solutions using the Hermitian beam elements and the results from other researchers. Particularly, the effects of the fiber orientation, the axial force, the elastic foundation, and the boundary condition on the vibrational behavior of composite box beam are investigated parametrically. Also the emphasis is given in showing the phenomenon of vibration mode change.

  • This paper introduced a scheme for finding an optimal association matrix that represents the relationships between the measurements and tracks in multi-target tracking of Radar system. We considered the relationships between targets and measurements as MRF and assumed a priori of the associations as a Gibbs distribution. Based on these assumptions, it was possible to reduce the MAP estimate of the association matrix to the energy minimization problem. After then, we defined an energy function over the measurement space, that may incorporate most of the important natural constraints.

  • The computation of transmittances between arbitrary input and output nodes is of particular interest in the signal flow graph theory imput. The signal flow matrix [T] can be defined by [X]=-[T][X] where [X] and [Y] are input nose and output node matrices, respectively. In this paper, the followings are discussed; 1) Reduction of nodes by reforming the signal flow matrix., 2) Solution of input-output relationships by means of Gauss-Jordan reduction method, 3) Extension of the above method to the matrix signal flow graph.

  • Social network analysis is a graphical technique to search the relationships and characteristics of nodes (people, companies, and organizations) and an important node for positioning a visualized social network figure; however, it is difficult to characterize nodes in a social network figure. Therefore, their relationships and characteristics could be presented through an application of correspondence analysis to an affiliation matrix that is a type of similarity matrix between nodes. In this study, we provide the relationships and characteristics around authors and keywords in the JKSS(Journal of the Korean Statistical Society) of the Korean Statistical Society through the use of social network analysis and correspondence analysis.

  • Randomly Amplified Polymorphic DNA (RAPD) was performed to define the genetic variation and relationships of Artemisia capillaris. Fifteen populations by the distributions and habitat were collected to conduct RAPD analysis. RAPD markers were observed mainly between 300bp and 1600bp. Total 72 scorable markers from 7 primers were applied to generate the genetic matrix, and 69 bands were polymorphic and only 3 bands were monomorphic. The genetic dissimilarity matrix by Nei's genetic distance (1972) and UPGMA phenogram were produced from the data matrix. Populations of Artemisia capillaris were clustered with high genetic affinities and cluster patterns were correlated with distributional patterns. Two big groups were clustered as southern area group and middle area group. The closest OTUs were GW2 and GG1 in middle area group, and GB1 from southern area group was clustered with OTUs in middle area group. RAPD data was useful to define the genetic variations and relationships of A. capillaris.

  • To avoid the unit inconsistency problem in the conventional Jacobian matrix, new formulation of a dimensionally homogeneous inverse Jacobian matrix for parallel manipulators with a planar mobile platform by using three end-effector points was presented (Kim and Ryu, 2003). This paper presents force relationships between joint forces and Cartesian forces at the three End-Effector points. The derived force relationships can then be used for analyses of the input/output force transmission. These analyses, forward and inverse force transmission analyses, depend on the singular values of the derived unit consistent Jacobian matrix. Using the proposed force relationship, a numerical example is presented for actuator size design of a 3-RRR planar parallel manipulator.
