Load distribution machannism between bents of piled wharf is an important issue.In view of the shortage of the traditional design method for piled wharf structure,this paper established the nonlinear structure-soil numerical model by finite element method software ANSYS.Based on the numerical analysis method, shear distribution coefficient of three different structure themes under high water conditions and low water conditions were Analyzed.Through post-processing process,information about the moment,shear stess of piles were obtained.The results showed that the integrity and capacity of resting horizontal load is increased by setting of longitudinal beams,.and the lower the collision position is,the more concentrate the distribution is..The conclusion and research method of this paper can be used as a reference for similar project in future.

The lecture support system in Higher Education has information about student identity in each system, such as profile photos, names, NIM (Student Registration Number) and according to system requirements. An assessment on the public viewboard is an Online Assessment System aimed at improving services at Raharja University. However, in the multiplication flow system still has 3 disadvantages, namely, students do not yet have the facility to see the allocation value between friends in one class in one course to be able to improve the results of lecture grades with classmates and also between classes. In class design Popular writers also do five methods, namely the method of analysis, method of literature review, observation method, design method, and then implemented. With the existence of this study, there are 3 Benefits, namely, students can see the value determined by classmates, can improve the value, and lecturers can ensure the value given must be recognized by students.

The manufacture of fire robot has characteristics such as different types and piece production, and flexible manufacture and cost control of the fire robot must be considered due to these characteristics. In this paper, the similarity of fire robot’s working environment was analyzed, The demand of chassis’s adaptability and the method using general technical platform were discussed with the thinking of modular design, and new series fire robots which composed of the general platform and different function modules were proposed, and the manufacture cost of traditional design method and modular design method were compared in using the activity-based costing method, and under the new design method the manufacture cost were decreased extremely.

A number of lightweight coastal protection structures, built on the Lake Erie shore are discussed in this paper. There were two constraints on the design; limited funds and a very precarious downdrift beach. Thus the structures were inexpensive and the protection was low-key to prevent damage downdrift. In 1972–1974 these structures were subjected to a combination of large waves and high water levels and thus they were tested well beyond their design limits.The paper discusses the structures, their performance under normal conditions, and their performance during and after the abnormally high water levels. It is found that inexpensive, low-key structures are sufficiently strong to survive normal conditions, but fail by overtopping and flanking under conditions beyond their low design limits.

abstract Soil and water conditions had an effect on the degree of damage to structures. Most structures were located on alluvium with a high water table. Settlements occurred in dike and causeway fill in Chimbote harbor. Severe problems to communication occurred in some areas through embankment failures and road slides.

Sight-stabilizing mechanisms controlled by diaphragm springs and other damping elements is an important subordinate system of airborne sight stabilizing System. The performances of sight-stabilizing system depend on the characteristics of kinematics and dynamics of the system in a great extent. Among various external moments acting on the rod of the manipulator, such as those moments caused by damper, positioning spring, and restoration spring, the forces by diaphragm springs are most obvious. According to the structure form and motion peculiarity, the rod can be equivalent to a rigid body turning around a fix point. Simulation results reveal that the moment of the restoration spring to the rod is proportional to the angular displacement, and that the moment is the most prominent factor influencing the operating performances among all these moments. Through reasonable adjustments of structural parameters of the restoration spring, the performances of the sight-stabilizing system can be improved greatly; the analysis method provides a basis for guiding the design of concerned structural parameters of sight-stabilizing system.

In 2013, the United States Marine Corps (USMC) conducted a study to determine the technical feasibility and affordability of a High Water Speed Amphibious Combat Vehicle, quantify performance, determine capability tradeoffs that can be made to reduce cost and reduce technical risk, and compare capabilities with those of a Low Water Speed variant. This paper describes the organizational structure, the study plan, and the innovative Set-Based Design method used by the ACV Directorate to conduct the study.

The design of engineering systems involves the design of dependent subsystems and the integration of these into a whole. A typical system has the characteristics of being multileveled, multidimensional, and multidisciplined in nature. It is this complexity which causes problems for the designer in making well-founded decisions. A decision support technique has been developed which offers a structured facility for the design of the subsystems and for the modeling of the interaction which is present between subsystems. The method, employing optimization procedures, allows all aspects of the system design to be considered concurrently, to produce the "best" solution, as defined by the specifications. This is in contrast to the traditional design method, which is iterative and cyclic in nature, involving sequential reevaluation and refinement. In this paper, the effectiveness and efficiency of the decision support problem approach is demonstrated using the hierarchical characteristics of a design for a barge. The barge problem, though basic in form, is comprehensive in concept and tutorial in nature. As a formulation for "system" optimization, it uses a computer-based method for solution and illustrates the virtues of a multilevel/multidisciplinary approach to design and decision-making. It also exhibits the same characteristics and provides valuable insight into the solution of the more complex problems encountered in practical ship design.

Traditional design method for urban drainage systems is based on design storms and its major drawback is that frequencies of peak flows in the system are considered equal to frequencies of design storms. An alternative is to use historical storms with rainfall-runoff models to produce a series of possible flows in the system and their frequencies. The latter approach involves more computations and can be laborious for larger catchments. This paper considers ways to reduce the set of historical storms to be involved in design procedure and yet to lead to realistic flow frequencies. Frequencies obtained by rainfall-runoff simulation at an experimental catchment are compared with frequencies of observed peak flows in the system.

Parts with complex geometry structure can be produced by AM without significant increase of fabrication time and cost. One application of AM technology is to fabricate customized lattice-skin structure which can enhance performance of products with less material and less weight. However, most of traditional design methods only focus on design at macro-level with solid structure. Thus, a design method which can generate customized lattice-skin structure for performance improvement and functionality integration is urgently needed. In this paper, a novel design method for lattice-skin structure is proposed. In this design method, FSs and FVs are firstly generated according to FRs. Then, initial design space is created by filling FVs and FSs with selected lattice topology and skin, respectively. In parallel to the second step, initial parameters of lattice-skin structure are calculated based on FRs. Finally, TO method is used to optimize parameter distribution of lattice structure with the help of mapping function between TO’s result and lattice parameters. The design method proposed in this paper is proven to be efficient with case study and provides an important foundation for wide adoption of AM technologies in industry.
