In constructing the multi-body dynamics model to analyze the behavior of the railway vehicle, it is very important to understand the properties of the suspension elements that constitute the suspension system. Among them, coil springs, which are mainly used in primary and secondary suspension systems, clearly show the axial stiffness in the drawings, but the lateral properties of the coil springs are not specified clearly, making it difficult to construct a dynamic analysis model. Therefore, in this paper, the model for analyzing the lateral stiffness of the coil spring is examined. A finite element method was applied to analyze the lateral stiffness of the coil spring and numerical analysis was performed by applying the coil spring lateral stiffness analysis model proposed by Krettek and Sobczak. And the test to analyze the lateral stiffness of coil spring was conducted. As a result of comparing with the test results, it was found that the results obtained by applying the lateral stiffness analysis model of Krettek and Sobczak and correcting the correction coefficient are similar to those of the test results.

The purpose of this study was the estimation and formulation of orthotropic flexural rigidities considering the deformed shape for a plate stiffened with rectangular ribs. Analytical results of methods modifying the flexural rigidity of the x-direction, the y-direction or both directions were compared at the center, the x-directional quarter point and the y-directional quarter point of stiffened plates loaded at the center. The composite method modifying the flexural rigidity of both directions improves the accuracy compared with the other methods. Moreover, the ratio of modified coefficients for each directional rigidity can be expressed as a function corresponding to each dimension of stiffened plates. The application of modified coefficient functions to various types of stiffened plates with different boundary conditions, aspect ratios and rib arrangement shows that the increment of the error ratio is small compared with examples of this study and the application of proposed functions shows more accurate results than previous methods modifying the flexural rigidity. Therefore, by using the modified coefficient functions proposed in this study, the orthotropic plate analysis of plates stiffened with rectangular ribs can easily achieve more accurate displacement results.

In this study, laboratory direct shear tests on 37 core specimens of gneiss were performed to examine the characteristics of shear behavior on fractures by using a portable direct shear box. The multi-stage shear testing method was used and normal stress applied to specimens ranges from 5.60 to $25.67kg/\textrm{cm}^2$. On the basis of test results, the empirical equations for the shear strength on fractures were suggested. The methanical parameters that can influence the shear behavior were derived and compared between each parameter. The values of shear stiffness have a trend showing rapid increase with the increase of normal stress and joint roughness coeffident, and the average value of secant shear stiffness for all specimens is about $110.68kg/\textrm{cm}^3$ under the range of normal stress applied in this test In addition, the relationship between the length of specimen and shear stiffness is inversely correlated due to the size effect. Therefore, even the specimens with the same joint roughness coeffident show the trend of decreasing shear stiffness in case of the specimens being the longer length.

This paper deals with the equivalent shear modulus of the egg-box core. There are three approaches to obtain the equivalent shear modulus of core: a finite element analysis, an analytical study, and an empirical method. In this study, an 3-point bending test is used to evaluate the equivalent shear modulus of the Egg-Box core. As a result of the present work, the equivalent shear modulus of egg-box core at room temperature can be obtained. And this result is compared with the result of finite element analysis.

There are few attempts to estimate the strength and stiffness of controlled low strength material (CLSM) using existing field-testing methods. The objective of this study is to evaluate the resilient modulus of CLSM by using the Light Weight Deflectometer (LWD) and investigate the relationships between the resilient modulus from LWD and the unconfined compressive strength (UCS) and secant modulus of elasticity from unconfined compressive test. Five CLSMs with different mix designs are used to evaluate the flowability and the stiffening of the CLSM in the flow and Vicat needle tests, respectively. To evaluate the early strength and stiffness characteristics, unconfined compressive tests are performed using the CLSM specimens cured for 1 and 7 days. LWD tests are carried out to estimate the resilient modulus of the CLSM specimens. The experimental results show that for the curing time of 1 day, the UCS and secant modulus of elasticity generally increase with the fast setting mortar content (FC). The CLSM specimen with the highest FC shows the significant increase in the UCS and secant modulus of elasticity along the curing time. Overall, the resilient modulus for the curing time of 1 day increases with the FC, while that for the curing time of 7days decreases with an increase in the FC. From the results, the linear relationships between the resilient modulus and UCS and secant modulus of elasticity are established.

In this work, the behavior of vibratory hub loads induced due to the uncertainties of composite material properties for each of the participating rotor blades is investigated. The random material properties of composites available from the existing experimental data are processed by using the Monte-Carlo simulation technique to obtain the stochastic distribution of sectional stiffnesses of composite blades. The coefficients of variation (standard deviation divided by the mean) obtained from the sectional stiffness constants are used as an input to the comprehensive aeroelastic analysis code that can evaluate the hub loads of a rotor system. It is found that the uncertainty effects of composite material properties inevitably bring a dissimilarity to the rotor system. The influence of hub vibration response with respect to the individual stiffness (flatwise bending, chordwise bending and torsion) changes is also identified.

Complex and large lattice type structures are frequently used in design of bridge, tower, crane and aerospace structures. In general, in order to analyze these structures we have used the finite element method(FEM). This method is the most widely used and powerful tool for structural analysis. However, it is necessary to use a large amount of computer memory and computation time because the FEM resuires many degrees of freedom for solving dynamic problems exactly for these complex and large structures. For overcoming this problem, the authors developed the transfer stiffness coefficient method(TSCM). This method is based on the concept of the transfer of the nodal dynamic stiffness coefficient which is related to force and displacement vector at each node. In this paper, the authors formulate vibration analysis algorithm for a complex and large lattice type structure using the transfer of the nodal dynamic stiffness coefficient. And we confirmed the validity of TSCM through numerical computational and experimental results for a lattice type structure.

측면구속은 지오그리드에서 골재 입자의 상호결합과 관련된 주요 보강 메커니즘으로 알려져 있다. 본 연구에서는 실내실험을 통해 얻은 지오그리드-골재 상호결합에 의한 국부적 강성증가에 대한 결과를 토대로, 지오그리드로 보강된 기층을 포함한 포장구조체의 탄성 반응 특성을 파악하고자 하였다. 기존의 실험적 연구에서는 지오그리드 배치된 시편 중간 높이로부터 거리가 멀어질수록 전단파 측정에서 추정된 전단탄성계수가 감소한다는 것을 보여주었다. 또한, 삼각형 지오그리드 근처의 강성 증가가 사각형 지오그리드 근처보다 크게 나타났다. 이러한 전단탄성계수 주상도를 기반으로, 수치해석적 연구에서는 기층의 4 개 하부층에 대한 탄성계수 값을 다르게 할당되었다. 층상 탄성해석 프로그램을 사용한 수치해석적 연구는 아스팔트층 하단에서 두 지오그리드 보강 포장시나리오의 수평방향 인장 응력과 변형이 미보강된 시나리오에 비해 감소했음을 보여주었다. 기층 중간깊이에서는 지오그리드 보강 포장시나리오의 압축응력이 미보강된 시나리오에 비해 보다 크게 나타났으며, 지오그리드 보강구간의 인장변형은 미보강된 구간보다 작게 나타났다. 삼각형 및 사각형 지오그리드의 사용은 기층 중간깊이에서 미보강된 시나리오에 비해 수직압축응력을 증가시키고 수직압축변형을 감소시켰다. 노상 상단에서는 지오그리드 보강 포장 구간의 수직 응력과 변형이 미보강된 구간보다 작았는데, 이는 노상의 침하 가능성이 낮다는 것을 보여주었다. 따라서, 지오그리드와 골재 간 미세역학적 상호결합을 기반으로 한 거시적 모델링 방법은 지오그리드로 보강된 아스팔트포장시스템의 역학적 분석에 효과적으로 사용될 수 있을 것으로 기대된다.

공기베어링은 기체으 압축성에 의한 평균화 효과로 운전정밀도가 우수하고 기체의 낮은 점도에 의한 효과로 마찰력과 열발생량이 매우 적으며, 사용가능 온도구간이 저온에서 고온까지 넓고 프로세스 계통내의 기체를 윤활제로 사용할 수 있기 때문에 그 경우 불순물에 의한 오염이 문제되지 않는 장점등이 있다. 이와 같은 특성과 더불어 공기베어링은 지지 물체를 완전히 부상시켜 운전하므로써 마찰$\cdot$마모와 온도변화에 다른 열변형이 문제되지 않는다. 이러한 장점으로 인해서 공기베어링은 현재 정밀기기의 미끄럼면, 각종 측정장치의 테이블지지 기구로 많이 사용되고 있다. 반면 공기베어링의 단점으로는 기체의 낮은 점성계수로 인해서 부하능력이 적고 강성, 감쇄계수 또한 적다. 그리고 기체의 압축성으로 인해 뉴메틱 헤머라는 불안정 현상이 생기기도 한다. 본 연구에서는 스퀴즈 효과를 이용한 능동 공기베어링을 설계, 제작하여 실험하였다. 본 연구의 목적은 강성과 감쇄 계수가 작은 공기 베어링의 단점을 보완하기 위해 드러스트베어링을 대상으로 능동베어링을 설계, 제작하여 그 특성을 연구하고 기초 설계자료를 축적하는데 있다.

The present works are the theoretical results of the study to develope a damping flexible coupling which has a high performance of control for the torsional vibrations of power shafts in a large machinery. It is established the analysis scheme of the multiple-leaf spring, to obtain the static coefficient of stiffness of the coupling. Also, the dynamic coefficient of stiffness and the damping coefficient of the coupling are indentified through the flow analysis for a induced flow of working fluid by the deflection of multiple-leaf springs. This paper dealt with damping contributions by the friction between each plate of the multiple-leaf spring. In this paper, it is found that the dynamic characteristics of the damping flexible coupling are strongly dependent on the stiffness and the number of the multiple-leaf spring, and also vary with the viscosity of working fluid and the vibration speed of the inner star.
