본 논문에서는 Active Contour 기반의 영역 분할에서 이미지의 초점값을 이용하여 분할된 영역 사이의 경계를 생성하여 기존의 Active Contour에서 발생할 수 있는 중첩 객체의 동일 객체 인식을 방지하는 기법을 제안한다. Active Contour는 영상에서 객체의 윤곽을 검출하여 윤곽을 기준으로 영상을 분할하지만 중첩되거나 근접한 객체에서의 분할이 정확하게 이루어지지 않아 동일 객체로 인식하는 단점이 있다. 이러한 객체에서의 분할을 위해 영상의 초점값을 이용하여 영상 내에 존재하는 객체의 유사 경계 영역을 생성하고 Active Contour의 결과에 적용하여 경계를 생성한 뒤 초점값 적용으로 인해 생성될 수 있는 홀 영역을 hole filling 과정을 수행하여 보완함으로써 보다 정확한 객체를 추출하였다.

The objective of this study is to investigate the behavior of superstructure considering several factors such as change of pile rigidity, soil characteristics, and the constraint condition of support. The results of this study are as follows: 1. Pile-rigidity computed by the rotating deformed plane method is continuously varied up to approximately 5D(D=diameter of pile) below the ground level. This result is consistent with the previous study$^{(12)}$, in which the pile deformation occurs at approximately $3{\sim}6$ times of pile diameter from the ground level. 2. For bridge structure-pile system, analytical results of internal forces and deformations show different values for modified pile rigidity and unchanged pile rigidity. 3. Detaild analysis considering modified pile rigidity is required for the long-span bridge design with structure pile system.

When the tunnel is designed, the ground is classified into several grades and the corresponding support system is applied according to the support pattern table. However, a simple pattern application based on rock grade does not take into account the longitudinal stress transitions occurring at rock grade boundaries. In this study, three-dimensional numerical analysis was performed to estimate the stress change in the longitudinal rock grade change of NATM tunnel, and the influence zone of load transfer was investigated using the influence line and trend line. As a result, the downward change of rock grade in the direction of tunnel excavation occurs in the range of 0.35~0.7D from low-strength rock to high-strength rock around the grade change boundary. It is necessary to apply a downward pattern of about 1.0D to the safety direction in consideration of the influence range of 0.35D to 0.7D.

The present study examined the reversal cyclic flexural behavior of walls with jacket section approach for seismic strengthening through forming the boundary elements at both ends of the wall. The prestressed wire ropes were used for the lateral reinforcement to confine the boundary element of the wall. The main parameter investigated was the height of the jacket section for strengthening. The limit height of the strengthening jacket section was determined by comparing the moment distributions between the existing and strengthened walls. Test results showed that the examined jacket section approach was significantly effective in enhancing the flexural resistance of walls, indicating 46% higher stiffness at peak strength and 210% greater work damage indicator, compared with the flexural performance of the unstrengthened wall. The ductility of the strengthened walls was insignificantly affected by the height of the jacket section when the height is greater than twice the wall length. The flexural capacity of the strengthened walls was 22% higher than the predictions obtained using the equivalent stress block specified in ACI 318-14.

In this present study, in order to update the finite element model considering the boundary conditions, a method has been proposed. The conventional finite element model updating method, updates the finite element model by using the dynamic characteristics (natural frequency, mode shape) which can be estimated from the ambient vibration test. Therefore, prediction of the static response of an actual structure is difficult. Furthermore, accurate estimation of the physical properties is relatively hard. A novel method has been proposed to overcome the limitations of conventional method. Initially, the proposed method estimates the rotational spring constant of a finite element model using the deflection of structure and the rotational displacement of support measurements. The final updated finite element model is constructed by estimating the material properties of the structure using the finite element model with updated rotational spring constant and the dynamic characteristics of the structure. The proposed finite element model updating method is validated through numerical simulation and compared with the conventional finite element model updating method.

A beam supported by a flexible elastic support is commonly used as structural elements, e.g., braced beam, railway track, etc. The elastic support can be located in arbitrary point in the cross-section. This paper investigates the effects of support eccentricity on the elastic buckling of beams with elastic supports. The effects of stiffness of the elastic support are also studied. A beam element with elastic supports and the analysis program are developed for elastic buckling analysis using finite element formulation. The elastic support is modeled by elastic spring element. Using the offset technique, the eccentricity of support is taken into account. A beam element having 14 degrees of freedom including the warping degree of freedom is used. Various numerical example analyses show that the present formulation and analysis program accurately and effectively compute the buckling load and mode of beams with elastic supports.

In this paper a useful method on evaluating the joint stiffness of a bolted member was introduced using optimization technique on the basis of Finite Element Method. A finite element model having one directional gap element at boundary area was introduced to compensate the prying force in jointed members which might be caused by geometrical configuration of members. Results showed a good agreement with classical method in certain range and will be available to define the appropriate design margin of pre-load design.

In this study, the rigidities of fiber-reinforced composite corrugated plates are derived to achieve the weight reduction, high strength, and high stiffness. The vibration of the corrugated plates for all the conventional boundary conditions in the plates is analyzed numerically by applying the derived rigidities, and so the analysis system is programmed to obtain the results by using Visual Basic language. Consequently, the characteristics of fiber-reinforced composite corrugated plates can be easily investigated from the results provided by the programmed system.

비검측공 시험법을 현장타설말뚝의 건전도 평가 목적으로 적용함에 있어서 시험법의 적용성을 향상시키기 위한 연구가 진행되어 오고 있다. 본 논문에서는 같은 맥락에서 수행되어 온 일련의 해석적 연구 결과 중 시험법의 해상도에 관한 문제와 말뚝 주변 및 선단지반의 강성이 비검측공 시험결과에 미치는 영향에 관해 다루었다. 본 논문에서 수행한 연구결과에 의하면 충격응답기법의 해상도를 평가하기 위해서는 말뚝재료에 대한 지반의 강성비($V_{s}$ /$V_{c}$)와 말뚝의 길이에 대한 직경의 비(L/D)에 의존하는 기존 평가기준에 부가하여 말뚝의 상대적인 체적변화가 필히 고려되어야 한다는 결론을 얻었다. 한편, 말뚝이 수평으로 층이 진 주변 지반을 통과하여 말뚝선단부를 지지하는 지반(선단지반)에 근입되거나 지지되는 경우에 말뚝의 자유단 혹은 고정단 경계 조건은 주변 지반과 선단 지반의 강성비와 선단 지반에 대한 말뚝의 근입깊이에 따라 변화한다는 사실을 규명하였다. 말뚝의 건전도 평가 시에 사용하게 되는 말뚝의 공진주파수가 이들 조건에 따라 변화하므로 결과적으로 시험결과분석에 있어서 이들 영향이 필히 고려되어야 한다는 결론을 얻었다.
