This paper applies back propagation neural network (BPNN) optimized by genetic algorithm (GA) for the prediction of pressure generated by a drop-weight device and the quasi-static calibration of piezoelectric high-pressure sensors for the measurement of propellant powder gas pressure. The method can effectively overcome the slow convergence and local minimum problems of BPNN. Based on test data of quasi-static comparison calibration method, a mathematical model between each parameter of drop-weight device and peak pressure and pulse width was established, through which the practical quasi-static calibration without continuously using expensive reference sensors could be realized. Compared with multiple linear regression method, the GA-BPNN model has higher prediction accuracy and stability. The percentages of prediction error of peak pressure and pulse width are less than 0.7% and 0.3%, respectively.

This study investigated both the static and dynamic behavior of silicate materials through a series of experimental and numerical tests. Compression tests were conducted on cubic samples, three-point bending tests on beams, and perforation tests on silicate plates. In the compression tests, stress-strain curves were generated, enabling the calibration of the Concrete Damaged Plasticity (CDP) model for silicate materials.

Article Synopsis
- Virtual reality systems can improve user experience through wearable haptic displays that simulate the softness of virtual objects using fingertip-mounted technology.
- The most effective way to convey softness is by providing tactile feedback through controlled pressure and skin contact area on the finger, but existing devices struggle with precise contact area measurement.
- The proposed solution involves a pneumatic haptic display that uses optical calibration to monitor and adjust the contact area, validated through comparison with other methods, and it includes an automated calibration process for easier use.
Study on Dynamic Characteristics of Resilient Mount Under Preload.

School of Electrical & Control Engineering, Tongmyong University, Busan 48520, Republic of Korea.
Article Synopsis
- Resilient mounts are crucial for reducing vibrations and shocks, and this study focuses on understanding their static and dynamic behaviors through experimental testing and analysis.
- Various tests (tension, compression, shear) were conducted to create stress-strain curves, and the Yeoh hyperelastic model was reviewed and calibrated to accurately describe the mounts' material behavior.
- The study found that increasing preload changes the mounts' dynamic response, lowering the frequencies of transmissibility curves and resonance peaks, providing important insights for designing vibration isolation systems, especially in naval applications.

Existing steel frames not complying with modern seismic codes are often vulnerable to earthquakes due to inadequate seismic detailing. These types of framed structures typically feature semi-rigid and partial strength column-base connections; the behaviour of such connections may significantly affect their seismic performance. However, current code provisions offer limited guidance for the assessment and retrofit of column-base connections To fill the knowledge gap, the H2020 EU-funded Earthquake Assessment of Base-Column Connections in Existing Steel Frames project experimentally investigated, the response of exposed column-base plate connections.
