The interest in the dynamic properties of soils has increased strongly because of earthquake, heavy traffic, and foundations undergo high amplitude of vibrations. Most of soils in Korean peninsula are composed of granite soils, especially the decomposed mudstone soils are widely spread in Pohang areas, Kyong-buk province. Therefore, it is very important to investigate the dynamic properties of these types of soils. The most important soil parameters under dynamic loadings are shear modulus and material dampings. Furthermore, few definitive data exist that can evaluate the behavior of unsaturated decomposed mudstone soils under dynamic loading conditions. The investigations described in this paper is designed to identify the shear modulus and damping ratio due to a surface tension for the unsaturated decomposed mudstone soils under low and high strain amplitude. For this purpose, the resonant column test and the cyclic triaxial test were performed. Test results and data have shown that the optimum saturated degree of decomposed mudstone soils under low and strain amplitude is $32{\sim}37%$ which is higher than that of decomposed granite due to the amount of fine particles as well as the type and proportion of chief rock-forming minerals.

Resonant column test huts been widely used as a primary laboratory testing technique in investigating dynamic soil properties expressed in therms of shear and Young's moduli and material damping. In thin Paper, dynamic Properties of typical Korean subgrade boils are investigated at shearing strains between 10-4% and 10-1% using Stokoe-type resonant column teat. The elastic threshold strains(yte) above which shear modulus and damping ratio are affected by strain amplitude, are defined at strain amplitude of about 10-3%. Below yte", small-strain shear modulus (Gmn) increases with confining pressure (Qc) as proportional to (Qe)0.61, and small-strain damping ratio(Dmin) ranges between 1% and 5.7%. Above yte, normalized shear modulus reduction curve(G/Gma. versus log strain) can be quite well expressed with Ramberg Osgood stress -strain equation and match well the curve suggested for sand by Seed and Idriss.riss.

The object of this study is to propose a rate of vibration increase in the analysis of temporary rail non-fixed in the vertical direction and characterize the nonlinear dynamic behavior of temporary rail while considering longitudinal and latitudinal load, vibration and lifting. The rate of vibration increase is proposed through measurement of an actual structure that is largely affected by loading and vibration of the superstructure. Dynamic behavior was additionally characterized by the dynamic response resulting from nonlinear dynamic finite element analysis with vehicle loading, including the rate of vibration increase. As a result, the rate of vibration increase by the vibration of an Auto Bar Machine is determined as 7% and the maximum stress in the analysis of the nonlinear rail is increased 14.5% over that of linear rail, and temporary rail is shown to be very sensitive to the velocity of the superstructure.

In this study, accelerated weathering test was performed with wood, a major material for wooden cultural building. In order to evaluate the deterioration of wood, ultrasonic transmission times were measured to evaluate dynamic modulus of elasticity (MOE), which was verified by determining static MOE using three-point bending test. Ultrasonic transmission time was decreased with an increase in the weathering time levels (0, 500, 1000 hours) while it increased in 1500 and 2000 hours. Distribution of dynamic and static MOE was similar to that of the ultrasonic transmission time measurements. The results mean that the measurement of ultrasonic transmission time was very effective to evaluate MOE of wooden cultural buildings for their preservation and management. This method could be utilized to assess wooden cultural buildings as a way of preserving them in a scientific manner.

Brittle materials such as rocks and concretes exhibit large strain-rate dependency under dynamic loading conditions. This means that the mechanical properties of such materials can significantly be varied according to load velocity. Thus, the strain-rate dependency is recognized as one of the most important considerations in solving problems of blast engineering or rock dynamics. Unfortunately, however, studies for characterizing the dynamic properties of domestic rocks and other brittle materials are still insufficient in the country. In this study, dynamic tensile tests were conducted using the Hopkinson pressure bar apparatus to characterize the dynamic properties of Geochang granite and high-strength concrete specimens. The dynamic Brazilian disc test, which is suggested by ISRM, and the spalling method were applied. In general, the latter is believed to have some advantages in experiments under high-strain rate deformation. It was found from the tests that there were no significant difference between the dynamic tensile strengths obtained from the two different test methods for the two materials given. However, this was not the expected result before the tests. Actually, authors expected that there be some differences between them. Hence, it is thought that further investigations are needed to clarify this results.

The dynamic and static torque characteristics of a three dimensional control panel installed behind a guide panel were investigated in a wind tunnel. The panel was tested for various wind speeds, angles of attack and positions of the panel. The effects of the rotational speed and the amplitude of the sinusoidal motion were also studied. The increasing rate of torque coefficients with the angular position of the panel is small when the panel remains in the wake region, but is linear when it reaches the external stream. In case of a sinusoidal motion of the pannel, a hysterisis appears in the dynamic torque. The hysterisis becomes strong as the wind speed and the angular speed of the panel increase. The unsteady torque is considered quasi-steady when the angular speed is less than 5.5rad/s, i.e. the reduced frequency is less than 0.035.

Fiber reinforced soils have recently implemented to fills and base layers of highways and railroads, and deformation behaviors of reinforced soils in turn should be investigated. The paper evaluated deformation characteristics of fiber reinforced sands and their effectiveness of reinforcement using resonant column tests. The specimens were prepared by varying gradation and mixing polypropylene staple fibers of 0.3% fiber content. Maximum shear moduli of reinforced sands were increased by up to 30% with increasing uniformity coefficient. Shear moduli of well-graded reinforced sands were larger than those of poorly-graded ones regardless of confining pressure in the whole range of shearing strain and reinforcement was, in turn, more effective with higher uniformity coefficient.

Rubber materials with excellent damping property are widely applied for vibration isolators. The dynamic characteristics of the rubber materials for vibration isolators were investigated. Dynamic tests for rubber materials with five different hardness were performed. In dynamic tests for test specimen, non-resonance method was used to obtain the dynamic storage modulus and loss factor. Moreover, the effect of dynamic vibration frequency, strain amplitude and temperature were investigated. As results, the storage modulus and loss factor generally increase when the hardness and frequency increase, and the glass transition temperature is $-50^{\circ}C$ by a large change in modulus and loss factor.

The effect of high-temperature on the flexural modulus of epoxy resin were evaluated using universal testing machine with 3-point bending and dynamic mechanical analyzer. Temperatures of $30^{\circ}C$, $100^{\circ}C$, and $140^{\circ}C$ were considered for flexural test. The specimens having aspect ratio of 16, 32, and 40 were used. The results of storage modulus from DMA were similar to those from flexural test along with given temperatures. It is found that the flexural modulus increased with increasing aspect ratio and the specimen having aspect ratio of above 32 would be suitable for the evaluation of composite material properties under high temperature condition.
