Chine형 선체단면 주상체의 자유표면에서의 상하운동에 수반되는 부가질량과 감쇠력을 Ursell-Tasai 방법에 의하여 계산하였다. Chine형에서 구하여진 결과는 같은 선체단면적 계수와 반폭흘수비를 갖는 등가 Lewis형의 결과와 비교하였고 선체단면의 형상이 부가질량 및 감쇠력에 미치는 영향을 고찰하였다. Chine형과 등가 Lewis형 선체단면 주상체에 파고가 일정한 횡파가 입사할 때의 상하운동을 고찰하였다. 이상과 같은 계산 및 고찰을 통하여 다음 결과를 얻었다. 1) 자유표면이 부가질량에 미치는 영향은 chine형이 등가 Lewis형단면보다 큰 값을 갖는다. 2) 선체단면적계수와 반폭흘수비가 같은 경우에 감쇠력의 크기는 Lewis form, single chine, double chine순서이다. 3) 선체단면계수와 반폭흘수비는 상하운동에 가장 큰 영향을 미치는 것으로 생각되며, 선체단면의 기하학적인 변형이 운동에 미치는 영향은 중요한 요소가 되질 못한다. 4) 감쇠력계수와 선체단면계수와의 관계는 간단한 관계를 유지한다.

3D finite element analyses of a corrugated steel web girder and a steel truss web girder are conducted to investigate the static and dynamic behaviour of the hybrid girders. And the analyses results are compared with those by the equivalent beam theory. The equivalent theory is a theory that all section properties of a truss structure are replaced by section properties of a beam including a shear coefficient. When applying the equivalent beam theory, the shear coefficient of the corrugated steel web girder is estimated as the area ratio of flange section to web section and that of the steel truss web girder is calculated by the equation proposed by Abdel. Static deflections and natural frequencies by 3D finite element analyses and those by the equivalent beam theory are in good agreement.

Numerical eigen analysis of beam-like structure can be easily and effectively done by various conventional beam theory-based methods. However, in case of the structures composed of composite-sectioned beams, the application of conventional numerical methods requires one to derive both equivalent material and geometry properties. In the present paper, these equivalent properties are derived by the transformed section method and the test FEM program is coded. The numerical accuracy of the proposed method is verified through the comparison with the ANSYS 3-D model.

A series of quasi-static crushing tests were carried out on thin-walled square tube specimens with axial and/or circumferential stiffeners including unstiffened specimens. The effective crushing length and mean crushing strength of the test specimens were investigated. Using the equivalent plate thickness approach, a simplified analytical model for predicting the mean crushing strength of stiffened square tubes has been developed.

The objective of this study is to develop the scheme to apply one-dimensional finite volume method (FVM) to natural river with complex geometry. In the previous study, FVM using the Riemann approximate solver was performed successfully in the various cases of dam-break, flood propagation, etc. with simple and rectangular cross-sections. We introduced the transform the natural into equivalent rectangular cross-sections. As a result of this way, the momentum equation was modified. The accuracy and applicability of newly developed scheme are demonstrated by means of a test example with exact solution, which uses triangular cross-sections. Secondly, this model is applied to natural river with irregular cross-sections and non-uniform lengths between cross-sections. The results shows that the aspect of flood propagation, location and height of hydraulic jump, and numerical solutions of maximum water level are in good agreement with the measured data. Using the developed scheme in this study, existing numerical schemes conducted in simple cross-sections can be directly applied to natural river without complicated numerical treatment.

To perform performance-based seismic design of buildings, it is necessary clear goal for usage and stability after an earthquake. To clear this goal, it requires a review of the constituent material of the building and, in particular, a member used as an indicator of the residual strain is useful. There are more usage of prestressed concrete because of prestressing steel witch has characteristics of the origin-oriented. In this study, the goal is estimating of residual strain on the prestressed concrete beam member. The expression for angle of deformed prestressed concrete beam member was obtained from using of curvature on the critical section and the equivalent plastic hinge length based on 'equivalent plastic hinge length method'. Considering the balance of strength and deformation conditions, suitable analysis values were derived from 'split Element Method'. Through various parametric studies, various factors affecting the residual strain were decided. Based on the results of this study, it is expected many researches will be proceed in the future.

In this study, a numerical analysis technique was newly developed to evaluate the damage propagation characteristics of concrete structures. To do this, numerical techniques are incorporated for the concrete members up to the compressive damage due to the bending compressive forces after the tensile crack based on the deformation mechanism. Especially, for the compressive damage stage after the tensile crack, the crack propagation process will be analyzed numerically using the concept of an equivalent plastic hinged length. Using this concept, it can be established that section forces, such as axial forces and the moment cracks takes place, can be related to the width of the crack making it possible to analyze the crack extension.

The cold-formed steel stud, which has been used as a load-bearing member of wall panels for steel houses, poses a significant problem in insulation due to heat bridging of the web. Therefore, some additional thermal insulating materials are required. In order to solve this problem, the cold-formed steel thermal stud with slits in the web was developed. However, estimating the structural strength of thermal studs is very difficult because of the arrangement of perforations. In this paper, an analytical and experimental research on thermal studs is described. Three types of studs with different length, pitch and arrangement of slits were tested to failure. A simple design approach was proposed based on the test results. The proposed method adopted the direct strength method, based on the elastic local and distortional buckling stress of plain studs with equivalent thickness in the web instead of thermal studs. The predictions using the proposed method were compared with test results for verification and the adequacy of the proposed method was confirmed.

This study is performed to evaluate the carbonation resistance by measuring carbonation penetration depth and diffusion equivalent air layer thickness for 3 types of repair materials and 2 types of surface protection materials. Diffusion equivalent air layer thickness($S_D$) is thickness of a static air layer that possesses, under the same conditions, the same carbon dioxide permeability as the coating in accordance BS EN 1062-6. There is a significant advantage that continuous test is possible because it does not destroy the specimen. From experiment results, it is concluded that determination of carbon dioxide permeability is effective to evaluate for surface coating materials.

Finite element simulations of tensile tests were performed to determine the equivalent stress - equivalent plastic strain curves, critical equivalent stresses, and critical equivalent plastic strains. Then, the curves were used as inputs to finite element simulations of fracture toughness tests to determine the plane strain fracture toughness. The critical COD was taken as the COD when the equivalent plastic strain at the crack tip reached a critical value, and it was used as a crack growth criterion. The relationship between the critical COD and the critical equivalent plastic strain or the reduction of area was found. The relationship between the plane strain fracture toughness and the product of the critical equivalent stress and the critical equivalent plastic strain was also found.
