콘크리트의 변형률국소화는 콘크리트의연화거동에 수반되어 변형이 국부적으로 집중되는 현상이다. 본 연구의 목적은 인장과 압축하중상태에서 콘크리트 부재에 발생하는 콘크리트 변형률 국소화 거동을 해석적으로 재현할 수 있는 통일된 모형을 제안하는 것이다. 본 논문에서는 인장과 압축에 대하여 변형률국소화가 일어나는 콘크리트 부재를 변형률 연화가 일어나는 국소화영역과 탄성제하가 발생하는 비국소화영역으로 구분하여 모델링하는 통일된 모형을 제안하였다. 또한 제안된 모형에서 미시역학적 평균화기법을 이용해 평균등가탄성계수와 수정된 평균등가탄성계수를 구하여 시편의 크기와 국소화영역의 크기에 따는 해석을 수행하였으며 기존의 실험값과 비교하였다. 연구결과, 본 연구에서의 변형률국소화모형이 크기효과를 포함한 콘크리트의 변형률국소화거동 해석에 타당하게 적용될 수 있음을 보여주었다.

The strain localization of concrete is a phenomenon such that the deformation of concrete is localized in finite region along with softening behavior. The objective of this paper is to develop a plasticity and damage algorithm for the finite element analysis of the strain-localization in concrete. In this paper, concrete member under strain localization is modeled with localized zone and non-localized zone. For modeling of the localized zone in concrete under strain localization, a general Drucker-Prager failure criterion by which the nonlinear strain softening behavior of concrete after peak-stress can be considered is introduced in a thermodynamic formulation of the classical plasticity model. The return-mapping algorithm is used for the integration of the elasto-plastic rate equation and the consistent tangent modulus is also derived. For the modeling of non-localized zone in concrete under strain localization, a consistent nonlinear elastic-damage algorithm is developed by modifying the free energy in thermodynamics. Using finite element program implemented with the developed algorithm, strain localization behaviors for concrete specimens under compression are simulated.

We have carried out a preliminary study to search for the new fracture mechanics parameter which can effectively estimate the fatigue life. In this study, the distribution of local fatigue strains near a fatigue crack tip was detailedly revealed using by fine dot grid strain measurement method. From these results, a single parameter (.DELTA.A), which characterize local fatigue strain field, was nearly proposed by the authors.

이 논문에서는 부호와 순위를 바탕으로 한 비모수 검파기를 쓰는 직접수열 대역확산 시스템의 의사잡음 부호획득을 다루었다. 먼저 국소 최적 순위 검파기의 검정통계량을 얻고, 점근 점수 함수를 쓰는 국소 준최적 순위 검파기와 변형 부호순위 검파기의 검정통계량을 제외한다. 제안한 국소 준최적 순위 검파기와 변형 부호순위 검파기를 쓴 한 우물기법과 이제까지의 제곱합 검파기와 변형 부호 검파기를 쓴 것을 견주어 본다. 제안한 국소 준최적 순위 검파기와 변형 부호순위 검파기의 성능이 이제까지의 변형 부호 검파기의 성능보다 2-3dB쯤 낮고, 거의 최적임을 모의실험을 통해 확인하였다.

In this paper, a local deformation effect in thin-walled box beams is investigated via a finite element modal analysis. The analysis is carried out for single-cell and multi-cell box beam configurations. The single-cell box beam with and without a neck, which mimics a simple wind-turbine blade, is analyzed first. The results obtained by shell elements are compared to those of one-dimensional(1D) beam elements. It is observed that the wall thickness plays a crucial role in the natural frequencies of the beam. The 1D beam analysis deviates from the shell analysis when the wall thickness is either thin or thick. The shell modes(local deformations) are dominant as it becomes thin, whereas the shear deformation effects are significant as it does thick. The analysis is extended to the single-cell box beam with a neck, in which the shell modes are confined to near the neck. Finally the multi-cell box beam with a taper, which is quite similar to real wind-turbine blade configuration, is considered to investigate the local deformation effect. The results reveal that the 1D beam analysis cannot match with the shell analysis due to the local deformation, especially for the lagwise frequencies. There are approximately 5~7% errors even if the number of segments is increased.

본 연구는 피로수명 평가를 위한 새로운 파괴역학적 parameter의 확립에 관한 연구이다. 실질적으로 피로파괴가 일어나는 피로 균열선단의 국소영역에서 변형분포를 미소원형격자측정법을 이용하여 실험적으로 명확히 밝혀내었다. 그리고 이 결과를 기초로 하여 국소피로 변형율장을 대표할 수 있는 피로변형율 확대계수 $\Delta$A를 제안하였다. 또한 새로운 parameter $\Delta$A의 유효성을 여러 피로조건에서 검토한 결과, 균열선단 국소 영역에서 피로 변형율 확대계수 $\Delta$A에 의하여 피로 균열전파 속도평가를 일의적으로 나타낼 수 있음을 확인하였다.

Localization of concrete is a phenomenon such that the deformation of concrete is localized in finite region with softening behavior and it governs ultimate load of concrete. In this Paper, concrete under strain localization was modeled with localization region and non-localization region and lc~calization behavior was formulated based on averaging concept of heterogeneous material. By using the formulation, the localization phenomena of concrete under uniaxial loadings were well predicted. The analytical results show that size of localization region of concrete under uniaxial compression is three times of maximum aggregate size and the size effect of concrete is well predicted. The use of tension-softening curve obtained from direct tension test is suitable for well prediction of localization of concrete under uniaxial tension.

The purpose of this study was to investigate abdominal local muscle activity during modified bridge exercise. 17 subjects participated in this study. Abdominal muscles measured. External oblique abdominis (EO), internal oblique abdominis (IO), transvers abdominis (TrA), and rectus abdominis (RA) during general bridge exercise and modified bridge exercise, respectively. Electromyogram (EMG) and real-time ultrasound were used to verify alteration of muscles. Activation of RA and EO muscles of non-dominant foot was significantly difference in general bridge exercise group, not modifiedl bridge exercise group. In the modified bridge exercise group, thickness of IO and TrA muscle of non-dominant foot was significantly difference in modified bridge exercise group than general bridge exercise group. Therefore, modified bridge exercise may be apply as more effective exercise for local muscle activity than global muscle.

This paper aimed to investigate the damage process of steel parts experiencing failure under strong repeated loading. Likewise, a damage index using various factors related to the damage was proposed. An analysis method for evaluating the damage state was also developed. The damage assessment method focused on the local strain history at the cross-section of the heaviest concentration of deformation. Cantilever-type steel parts were analyzed under uniaxial load combined with a constant axial load, considering horizontal displacement history, Loading patterns and steel types were considered as the main parameters in analyzing the models. The effects of the parameters on the failure modes, deformation capacity, and damage process as seen from the analysis results were also discussed. Each failure process was compared as steel types. In addition, the failure of steel parts under strong repeated loading was determined according to loading. Results revealed that the state of the failure is closely related to the local plastic strain.

In this paper, we study the bending and free vibration analysis of nano plate, using a nonlocal elasticity theory of Eringen with a third-order shear deformation theory. This theory has ability to capture the both small scale effects and quadratic variation of shear strain and consequently shear stress through the plate thickness. Analytical solutions of bending and vibration of a laminated composite nano plate are presented using this theory to illustrate the effect of nonlocal theory on deflection of the nano plates. The relations between nonlocal third-order and local theories are discussed by numerical results. Further, effects of (i) nonlocal parameters, (ii) laminate schemes, (iii) directions of the fiber angle and (iv) number of layers on nondimensional deflections are investigated. In order to validate the present solutions, the reference solutions are used and discussed. The results of anisotropic nano plates using the nonlocal theory may be the benchmark test for the bending analysis.
