A new index for the buckling strength of non-structured plates is proposed. The external work or the deformation energy caused by the external loads or the boundary displacement controled by a load parameter is calculated along an equilibrium path of the member under consideration. If the second variation of the energy with respect to the parameter loses its positiveness, it defined as the limit of the stability. In contrast to the current method given in codes where the stability limit is evaluated by using only representative internal forces, the evaluation of the stability limit is always consistent even with the change of the distribution of the internal forces on the boundary. If the elasticity is concerned, the result from this proposed approach becomes identical to that from the classical methods.

In this study, a bending test with three encased composite beams were carried out and analyzed using FEM in order to find how chemical adhesion, interface interlock, friction and composite action by shear studs contribute to stiffness, strength and composite action in the interface of encased compo site beams. The test and results of the FEM analysis showed that the difference in the ultimate moment capacity of the composite beams with and without studs is under 10%. The reason is that the effect of chemical adhesion, interface interlock, and friction in the interface on the composite action is so high that the encased beams have a moment capacity above some defined magnitude. Also, the increment of moment capacity up to plastic moment is not large and the increase of linearly proportioned.

This paper presents a research work for the evaluation of the nominal flexural strength of composite girders in positive bending region. Current predicting equations for the nominal flexural strength of composite girders in the 2012 version of the Korea Bridge Design Codes based on Limit State Design Method are able to apply for the composite girders with conventional structural steels. For applying composite girders with high yield strength steels of HSB800 as well as HSB600, there is a need for improving the current predicting equations. In order to investigate the nominal flexural strength of composite girders, previous research works are carefully reviewed and parametric study using a moment-curvature analysis program is conducted to evaluate the ultimate moment capacity and the ductility of a wide range of composite girders. Based on the results of the parametric study, less conservative nominal flexural strength design equations are proposed for conventional composite girders. In addition, new design equations for predicting the nominal flexural strength of composite girders with HSB600 and HSB800 high-performance steels are provided.

This paper presents some research results on the shrinkage characteristics and frost resistance before and after cracking of FR-ECC(Fire Resistance-Engineered Cementitious Composite). Also, a waterstop performance and exfoliating resistance of multi-layer lining specimens using FR-ECC and flexural performance of beam member by repaired FR-ECC are estimated in this paper. Experimental results indicate that the plastic shrinkage crack and length change ratio of FR-ECC have been reduced as compared with that of the existing repair mortar, and that its crack resistance on the dry shrinkage is improved under the confining stress. As well as FR-ECC has been great in the frost resistance and its tensile properties under the cracked state have been not reduced by freezing and thawing reaction. In addition, beam member by repaired FR-ECC have been increased in the flexural properties such as initial crack moment, yeild moment, and its crack width has been controled in a stable by the frexural failure.

The distribution of shaft resistance is measured by the static load test with the strain gauge or stress gauge, so that the long-term load distribution must be considered for the pile design. However, the measurement by strain gauge generally assumes the 'zero reading', which is the reading taken at 'zero time' with 'zero' load and the residual stress, which is the negative skin friction(or the negative shaft resistance) caused by the pile construction, is neglected. Therefore, the measured value by strain gauge is different from the true load-distribution because residual stresses were neglected. In this study, the three drilled shafts were constructed, and the strain measurements were carried out just after shaft construction. As a result of this study, it is shown that the true load-distribution of drilled shaft is quite different with known load distribution and the true load-distribution of drilled shaft changed from the negative skin friction to the positive skin according to the load increment.

In the production power transmitting of a floating production system like a wind offshore floating, the power cable should be connected from the surface system into the subsea system. The connection between the surface and the subsea system will make the power cable get a dynamic load like current and wave forces. Based on this condition, a dynamic power cable is required to endure external physical force and vibration in the long-term condition. It needs more requirements than static power cable for mechanical fatigue properties to prevent failures during operations in marine environments where the external and internal loads work continuously. As a process to verify, the durability test of dynamic power cables under the marine operation environment condition was carried out by using domestic technology development.

Climate change has been influenced on extreme precipitation events, which are major driving causes of flooding. Especially, most of extreme water-related disasters in Korea occur from floods induced by extreme precipitation events. However, future climate change scenarios simulated with Global Circulation Models (GCMs) or Reigonal Climate Models (RCMs) are limited to the application on medium and small size rivers and urban watersheds due to coarse spatial and temporal resolutions. Therefore, the current study introduces the state-of-the-art approaches and procedures of statistical downscaling techniques to resolve this limitation It is expected that the temporally downscaled data allows frequency analysis for the future precipitation and estimating the design precipitation for disaster prevention.

The knowledge about drought propagation is very important in accurate estimation of hydrological drought characteristics and efficient development of early warning system. This study investigated a probabilistic relationship of drought propagation based on Bayesian network model for historic period and for future projection under climate change scenario RCP 8.5 over the Han River basin. The results revealed that the propagation rate and lag time have increasing and decreasing trends from the historic period of 1967-2013 to the future periods of 2014-2053 and 2054-2100 under climate change, respectively. The probabilistic results of Bayesian model revealed that the probability of occurrence of lag time varied spatially and decreased when the intensity of meteorological drought changed from moderate to severe and extreme condition during 1967-2013. The values of probability increased in the first future period of 2014-2053 in several sub-basins and slight decreased in the second period of 2054-2100. The proposed probabilistic results will be useful for the decision makers to develop related policies with an appropriate insight toward the future drought status.

In this study, wind loads exerted on the offshore wind turbine rotor in parked condition were predicted with variations of wind speeds, yaw angles, azimuth angle, pitch angles, and power of the atmospheric boundary layer profile. The calculated wind loads using blade element theorem were compared with those of estimated aerodynamic loads for the simplified blade shape. Wind loads for an NREL's 5 MW scaled offshore wind turbine rotor were also compared with those of NREL's FAST results for more verification. All of the 6-component wind loads including forces and moments along the three axis were represented on a non-rotating coordinate system fixed at the apex of rotor hub. The calculated wind loads are applicable for the dynamic analysis of the wind turbine system, or obtaining the over-turning moment at the foundation of support structure for wind turbine system.

최근 기후변화로 인하여 극한 강우사상이 증가하고 있으며, 이에 대한 재해 위험도도 커지고 있는 추세이다. 서낙동강 지역에서는 부산 에코델타 스마트시티 조성사업이 2023년 완공을 목표로 개발을 진행 중이다. 부산 에코델타 스마트시티는 대저수문과 녹산수문이 각각 상/하류에 위치하고 있으며, 스마트시티가 위치한 좌안에는 평강천이 유입하고 우안에는 대감천, 예안천, 주중천, 신어천, 금천천, 조만강 및 지사천이 유입하고 있다. 스마트시티의 대저수문과 녹산수문 구간은 4월-10월 기간 동안 주변지역 농업용수 공급을 위하여 하계의 일시적인 방류를 제외하면 연중 담수가 이루어지는 전형적인 하천형 저수지의 특성을 가지고 있다. 낙동강의 홍수예보는 낙동강의 본류 구간만을 대상으로 수행하고 있으며, 스마트시티 구간은 주로 수질에 관한 연구가 수행되어 왔다. 그러나 스마트시티의 조성과 함께 서낙동강 구간의 홍수 영향 분석의 필요성이 제기되고 있으나 스마트시티 하천구간을 대상으로 한 홍수분석은 거의 수행된 바가 없다. 본 연구에서는 부산에코델타 스마트시티 구간을 대상으로 시나리오 기반의 홍수분석을 수행할 수 있는 웹기반 통합플랫폼을 개발하였다. 홍수분석에 필요한 자료는 에코델타 스마트시티 개발계획을 기반으로 단기유출모의, 하천흐름모의 및 도시유출모의를 연계하여 분석을 실시할 수 있도록 하였다. 홍수분석을 실시함에 있어 대상 하천구간의 농업용수이용, 수문조작 기준을 고려하였다. 단기유출모의는 홍수통제소의 유출분석을 위하여 사용되는 저류함수법을 적용하였으며, 하천흐름 모의는 미국 공병단에서 개발한 HEC-RAS모형을 적용하였으며, 하천흐름모형의 결과를 미국 환경청(EPA) 도시유출모형인 SWMM과 연계할 수 있도록 하였다. 대상 구간의 하천 취수량을 산정하기 위하여 일별 담수심추적법을 활용한 논 농업용수 수요량을 산정하여 반영하고, 농업용수 수요량에 따른 저수량과 수문운영 룰을 고려하였다. 또한 부산에코델타 스마트시티의 개발에 따른 상태 변화를 반영할 수 있도록 웹기반으로 사용자가 시나리오를 설정하고 각 모형의 입력자료와 매개변수를 조정할 수 있도록 하였다. 본 연구의 결과는 부산에코델타 스마트시티의 개발에 있어 홍수위험을 분석 및 평가하는데 활용될 수 있을 것으로 판단되며, 이를 활용하여 홍수에 안전한 부산에코델타 스마트시티를 만들 수 있을 것으로 기대된다.
