In this study, fracture network in rock mass was interpreted using borehole wall images obtained by televiewer. The orientation and JRC value of major joint set were evaluated adopting image analysis techniques, of which process were written in macro-program code. As linking JRC to joint stiffness using Barton-Bandis model, fracture network map was produced for application to jointed rock modelling in numerical analysis of underground structure.

The dynamic behavior of multi-layered stone masonry monuments, such as stone pagoda, are mainly influenced by contour condition of contacting surface of stones. These structures can be modeled as a multi-degrees of freedom system. In this case the mass of the system can be easily estimated, mean while the estimation of stiffness at junction is not simple. In this paper a method for estimating the spring constant at the contacting surface of stone is proposed. The proposed method utilizes the natural frequency of the system which can be obtained by eigenvalue analysis.

Influence of lateral spring constant on energy dissipation and load reduction factor with erespect to lateral vibration of steel sheet pile installed by vibratory pile driver. Energy dissipation and load reduction factor varying with free length of steel sheet pile are more affected by eccentricity than flexural rigidity of steel sheet pile regardless of the magnitudes of lateral spring constants. Load reduction factors were converged when lateral spring constant was equal or larger than 10000N/m.

The objective of this paper is to develop a program for distortional analysis of steel box girder bridges. This program is formulated by using MSDM(modified slope deflection method). Two examples are carried out to verify the validity of the developed technique and its computation procedures. The analyzed results are compared with the previously proposed methods, BEF(beam on elastic foundation) and EBEF(equivalent beam on elastic foundation). The BEF method is limited only to prismatic straight box girders. In the EBEF method, stiffness of the intermediate diaphragms is infinitely considered. On the other hand, stiffness of the intermediate diaphragms is idealized as spring contant in this study. And then, nonprismatic straight box girders can be analyzed using the same procedure. Therefore, the comparison shows that the MSDM algorithm proposed in this paper is more efficient and reliable. Also parametric studies are perfomed using the proposed algorithm.

Brittle matrix composites often have interfacial debonding between the fiber and matrix which may lead to strength and stiffness degradation. The effect of interfacial debonding and fiber volume fraction on the mechanical properties of composite material were studied by using finite element method. Firstly, the modelling of fiber and matrix constituting the composite material was simplified under some assumptions. Traction and displacement continuity conditions were imposed along the boundary of adjacent representative volume elements. In order to obtain the effective material properties of composite material, stiffness constants were inverted. Numerical values of longitudinal moduli in case of perfect bonding were compared with theoretical values obtained by rule of mixtures and yielded consistency. Material properties of composite with large debonding an81e were found to decrease even though the fiber volume fraction increased.

차량에서 엔진은 가장 큰 질량 집중체(concentrated mass)이다. 만약 엔진이 적절하게 구속되지 않거나 절연되어 있지 않으면, 차체에 진동을 일으키는 원인이 된다. 엔진은 다양한 진동 교란을 받는데 엔진 마운트는 이러한 모든 것들을 고립시키는 역할을 해야 하며, 엔진은 정적인 장착 하중에 대한 지지와 전후, 좌우 및 수직 방향의 운동에 대해 적절한 강성을 가져야 한다. 또한 정숙성을 향상시키기 위해서는 엔진 마운트의 재료인 고무의 강성계수를 낮추는 것이 필요한데 이는 일반적으로 내구성의 저하를 가져온다. 따라서 개발과정에서 강성계수를 낮추는 변경을 하면 부품의 내구성을 보정함에 따르는 재평가 또한 필요하게 된다. 엔진 마운트에 쓰이는 고무부품의 해석은 엔진 마운트 시스템에 대한 진동 해석 및 내구수명의 예측과 병행해야 하며, 진동해석으로부터 얻은 하중 지지 능력 등의 모든 요구 특성을 만족하기 위해서는 고무 재료의 특성에 대한 지식, 엔진 마운트의 장착 위치에 대한 결정 능력과 함께 주어진 조건에 대한 형상의 최적 설계 능력 등이 요구된다. 본 연구에서는 기본적인 형상을 파라미터화하여 엔진 마운트의 형상을 최적화 하는 절차를 제안하였다. 현재 승용차에 널리 사용되고 있는 부시형(bush type) 엔진마운트를 적용 모델로 선택하였으며, 엔진 마운트의 기본적인 형상을 몇개의 파라미터를 사용하여 정의하고 설계 사양으로 주어지는 강성값과 각 파라미터들의 조합으로 구성되는 형상이 갖는 강성값의 차이가 최소가 되도록 파라미터 값들을 최적화하였다. 최적화된 파라미터 값들로 구성되는 형상을 내구 성능, 성형성등을 고려하여 최종 형상으로 결정한다. 내구성능의 예측은 금속부품의 내구수명 예측에 널리 이용되고 있는 방법이 방진 고무부품의 경우에도 적용 가능한지를 검토하고, 방진 고무부품에도 일반적으로 적용될수 있는 내구수명 예측방안의 개발 가능성을 타진해 보았다. 본 연구의 목표는 시제품을 제작하기 이전에 설계된 부품에 대한 스프링 상수 및 내구특성을 체계적으로 규명하여 제품 시험의 횟수를 줄이고, 보다 정밀한 제품을 제작할 수 있도록 하기 위한 것이다.

Generally, in a steel-concrete composite gilder, the shear connector which was constructed between concrete deck and steel girder should have enough stiffness to behave as one body, because the conformity between plate and concrete deck is influences by the stiffness and spacing of the shear connectors. If the stiffness of shear connectors are insufficient, slip would happen at the contact surface. Partial interaction is the case that takes account of slips. In this paper, an easy method is presented to evaluate the stiffness or spacing of the shear connector according to the degree of imperfection without difficult calculations for a composite gilder with partial interaction. Also, the horizontal shearing force applied to the shear connector and the longitudinal axial force, which is occurs at contact surface between concrete deck and steel girder, have been presented in a simple influence line that is various to the parameters of sectional properties, degree of imperfection and applied load points. Furthermore, through the case study, it determined the relationships between the degree of imperfection and the follows 1) spring constants 2) axial force and horizontal shearing force 3) stress and neutral axis by using the partial differential equation based on Newmark's Partial Interaction Theory.

In order that the steel girder and the concrete slab act as a composite structure, the connectors must have adequate strength and stiffness. If there are no horizontal or vertical separations at the interface, the connectors are described as rigid, and complete interaction can be said to exist under these idealized circumstances. However, all connectors are flexible to some extent, and therefore incomplete interaction always exists. This paper presents a practical structural analysis of composite girders with incomplete interaction by three methods. One is the stiffness matrix method derived from the general solutions of differential equation, another is the finite element analysis that alternate method of solution treats the structure as a frame and defines the spring as an additional member, and the other is the finite element analysis using principle of virtual work. The deflection characteristic of composite girder is investigated using these three methods. Also, this paper propose a simplified procedure of estimating a degree of imperfection for a composite girder with incomplete interaction using the sectional properties of girder and spring constants of shear connectors.
