Density of Surabaya city affects the physical and psychological health of the people. Productive activities accompanied by a dense environment mean that people rarely have time to exercise. To increase the awareness and interest of the people of the city of Surabaya to exercise, it is necessary to have a sports facility with a special approach. Biophilic theory, especially the natural shapes and form approach, can be a solution to these problems. The return of nature's essence into the building can provide positive benefits for human physical and physical health. Previous research has discussed the determination of fitness center design criteria with the natural shapes and forms approach in Surabaya. In this follow-up journal, we will discuss the final result or application of the design criteria into an architectural work. The design method used is the force based framework method. The force in the design of this building in addition to the surrounding natural environment is the natural perception of the community which is transformed into architectural forms. It aims to increase interest in training and restoring the user's physical and psychological health without having to go far out of town to look for nature.

Since multifunction switching is a relatively new concept in controls technology, many design questions unique to this type of control need to be addressed. Research was conducted to determine pilot acceptability and useability of a panel of multifunction switches for aircraft applications. Many of the design criteria identified during the studies as critical to the optimization of switch/function assignment and determination of operator selections required to perform tasks will be presented.

The passage of river ice during the breakup event can have several effects on bridge structures. Design for ice passage at bridges has largely been empirical, such as the determination of superstructure clearance requirements based on historical stage data. As hydrologic and river ice processes in rivers are modified by climatic change, the use of empirical methods based on past observations and measurements could become less reliable. To advance beyond empiricism, it is necessary to develop rational design criteria based on a thorough understanding of the factors governing the interaction between bridges and ice. This concern applies especially during the breakup event when river flows, velocities, and hydrodynamic forces are usually higher and moving ice is thicker and stronger than during freeze-up. This paper provides guidance on the design of bridges to minimize ice impacts on the structure during the breakup period.Key words: breakup, bridges, design, forces, ice jam, impact, river ice, scour, waves.

Shutdown of the Babcock & Wilcox nuclear reactor water coolant pumps will cause check valves to close which will induce the generation of water hammer in the system. The magnitude, frequency, and duration of possible pressure oscillations in the pipeline and the discharge of the pressure oscillations into the attached plenum chamber were evaluated. Although the plenum chamber contains a great number of suspended rods, it was possible to establish the upper bound for the pressure loading across the internal structure of the plenum chamber at various stations for determination of design criteria.

Drainage factors (DF) were used as design criteria for comparing relative costs of horizontal and tubewell drainage of mainly medium-textured silty loams, especially in saline groundwater areas. DF calculated from recharge estimates were higher than those calculated from leaching requirements. For tubewell drainage (normally maintaining a water-table lower than is possible with horizontal drainage) DF from recharge estimates should serve as criteria for establishing the capacity of the installation. For calculating the required spacing for horizontal drainage, DF slightly higher than those derived from leaching requirements are desirable to take into account drainage or seepage from line sources. If wide spacings are calculated with relatively small DF, the reaction of the water-table halfway between the drains to intermittent recharge may be too slow, and a smaller spacing may be required. Because of limited accuracy of the DF, additional data on hydraulic conductivity of the soil are desirable. (Abstract retrieved from CAB Abstracts by CABI’s permission)

Even though in the past 30 years, Beyond Design-Basis Event (BDBE) Design for nuclear power plant (NPP) has been considering as one of the design commitment for the safety and function goals, often time a compromise inevitably take the place when conduct the detail engineering design. There is several reasons lead to this situation: (1) the lacking of thorough investigation and research on this subject, (2) the need for clarity and recommendations from industrial code and standard practice, (3) the need for clearer and specific regulation and regulatory requirements, (4) the consideration of economy. By understanding the above situations, this paper is contributed to investigate the determination of Beyond Design Basis Seismic (BDBS) design for new NPPs in current timeframe. Due to the complexity of this new emerging subject, this paper, as the carrier of preliminary (phase 1) results, is attempting to summarize the authors’ latest research progress from technical and design practice point of view. The preliminary research on BDBE determination is focusing on the investigation of the applicability of PSHA method on this subject. Following aspects are considered in this phase 1 report: • The definition of BDBE from current nuclear power engineering perspectives. • The discussion of the applicability of PSHA on BDBE determination. • Suggested procedures for BDBE determination etc. • The recommendation of approaches for SSC modeling and analysis under BDBE. This paper will also cover some topics on the design criteria for beyond design basis earthquake loading conditions. A more detailed discussion on beyond design basis loading’s combinations and design criteria will be investigated in the phase 2 report of this research.

Restaurants, in general, utilise numerous suppliers. Normally they deliver on different days in the week and at different times during the day, logistically not an optimum approach. Not only does the current practice cause frequent interruptions, but by segregating the food supply chain unnecessary traffic is generated. This article investigated the need for developing a third party supplier hub, the best positioning of that hub and the most economical routes to the customers. With the aim of providing non-franchised restaurants with the necessary leverage to become market leaders, the hub is planned to only service the restaurants within the vicinity of the Stellenbosch area. In such a hub-configured supply chain, the suppliers would be delivering to the proposed hub, from where once-off deliveries to all the restaurants may be made on days and/or times determined by them. In order to investigate the benefits of providing such a hub structure, a systematic implementation approach was used. The first step was to do market research in order to establish the need for such a hub. That is, the viability of the hub from a restaurant’s perspective was established. The next step entailed the investigation of the design criteria needed in determining a favourable hub location. Four possible hub locations were identified. The Clark and Wright’s savings algorithm was then used to determine the optimal hub location and the feasibility of the results was verified with the aid of a global positioning system (GPS) device. The last steps followed involved the determination of an effective hub floor plan that may be utilised, possible products that can be supplied to the restaurants and the necessary assets needed to provide the hub’s service. Finally, by incorporating all these facets, a cost analysis was done to determine the hub’s profitability.

In order to obtain design criteria for artificial gravel beaches, a research programme was drawn up to study the behaviour of gravel beaches under wave attack. The present paper gives the main results of the first step in this programme, viz. the determination of the dimensions, form and way of formation of an equilibrium profile under regular, perpendicular wave attack. One of the conclusions is that gravel with a D0(,

This paper describes numerical simulation and analysis of interaction between the parts of rack-and-pinion lock under operational external load, so as to develop design criteria and recommendations for its joints, as well as for more accurate determination of clearances between coamings and hatch covers, required to develop water-tight rubber sealings. These tasks are accomplished by means of detailed three-dimensional finite-element models representing two variants of rack-and-pinion lock, with their further verification. The study included numerical simulation of contact interaction between the parts of the lock, as well as analysis of design solutions for its main joints. As a result, coaming-cover clearances have been determined and manufacturing requirements to rubber sealings of the lock variants under investigation have been successfully formulated.
