Yield seismic coefficient plays an important role in the estimation of permanent displacement of a soil slope subjected to earthquake using Newmark's sliding block theory. However, yield seismic coefficients currently used in practices are not mechanically rigorous since most of them are estimated using limit equilibrium methods considering equilibrium condition only. Therefore, estimation of permanent displacement of a soil slope based on existing yield seismic coefficient may cause problems. Limit analysis estimating the range of mechanically rigorous solution is thought to be effective in evaluating the validity of existing yield seismic coefficient. In this study, a simple stability chart for yield seismic coefficient useful in practices is proposed by considering various slope conditions including stability number, slope inclination, strength parameters, etc.

In this work, effects of hyper-elastic rubber material properties on the indentation load-deflection curve and subindenter deformation are first examined via finite element (FE) analyses. An optimal data acquisition spot is selected, which features maximum strain energy density and negligible frictional effect. We then contrive two normalized functions, which map an indentation load vs. deflection curve into a strain energy density vs. first invariant curve. From the strain energy density vs. first invariant curve, we can extract the rubber material properties. This new spherical indentation approach produces the rubber material properties in a manner more effective than the common uniaxial tensile/compression tests. The indentation approach successfully measures the rubber material properties and the corresponding nominal stress-strain curve.

In this study, the reliability of the lateral spring constant (k1) applied during design of pile foundation for bridge abutment was evaluated. To do this, the reliability of the factors related to the prediction of the lateral displacement of the abutment pile foundation, which was designed based on the displacement method proposed by Chang (1937), was analyzed. The data used for analysis were the design statements of ◯◯ bridge and ◯◯ IC2 bridge. Then, it was derived by comparing with the numerical analysis (p-y analysis) based on the basic data.

나노인덴테이션은 압자를 수 $\mu\textrm{N}$의 힘으로 시편에 압입을 시켜 재료의 경도나 탄성계수와 같은 기계적 특성을 평가하는 압입경도 시험법이다. 압입 변위를 나노미터범위로 조절할 수 있어 기존에 접근할 수 없었던 박막의 기계적 특성을 평가하는데 응용이 넓어지고 있다. 본 연구에서는 나노인덴테이션에서 제공되는 하중-변위곡선과 유한요소해석의 결과를 비교하여 유한요소해석의 신뢰성을 검증하고, 유한요소해석에서 여러 가지 재료의 특성에 따른 파일업과 싱크인 현상을 규명 하고자 한다.

In this study, a procedure of performance-based design for the seismic retrofit of reinforced concrete columns strengthened by steel jackets has been presented. In order to predict the target displacement of retrofitted columns, a nonlinear analysis of reinforced concrete columns retrofitted with steel jackets has been developed based on a segmental model with the fiber cross-sectional approach. The seismic displacement level of retrofitted columns is estimated both by the direct displacement-based design method and by the displacement coefficient method. In examples of seismic retrofitted columns, the current seismic retrofit procedure gives good results in improvements of displacement levels and displacement ductilities of retrofitted columns.

이종재료의 접합면에 수직으로 존재하는 크랙에 대하여 경계요소 해석을 수행하여, 그 결과 실용가능한 수치 근사해을 얻을 수 있었다. 크랙을 정확히 모델링하기 위하여 크랙표면을 분리영역으로 하는 영역분할법을 채택하였으며, 해의 정확성을 향상시키기 위하여 등매개 2차요소로의 경계분할과 함께 크랙선단에서 표면력의 특이성을 나타내도록 하였다. 응력확대계수는 크랙표면상 절점의 상대변위를 이용하여 결정하였다. 또한 이종 재료내 크랙에 대하여 응력확대계수를 간단히 구할 수 있는 간편해석법을 제안하고 이의 적용 가능한 범위를 제 시하였다.

인이 높은 농도로 도핑되어진 LPCVD 다결정 실리콘 박막의 열팽창 계수를 마이크로 게이지법을 이용하여 측정하였다. 기존의 박막의 열팽창 계수 측정 법에서는 박막이 기판에 증착되어진 상태에서 측정이 이루어지므로, 기판의 탄성계수와 열팽창계수를 미리 알고 있어야 한다. 이에 비해 마이크로 게이지법에서는 박막의 열\ulcorner창 계수를 도출하기 위하여 기판의 탄성계수 값과 열팽창 계수 값을 필요로 하지 않는다는 장점이 있다. 마이크로 게이지법에서는 전류를 가할 경우 줄 발열에 의해 발생한 마이크로 게이지에의 변위를 측정하고, 그 때 계산된 마이크로 게이지의 평균 온도의 관계에서 열팽창 계수를 계산한다. 다결정 실리콘 박막의 열팽창 계수는 2.9 x $10^{-6}$$^{\circ}C$로 측정되었으며, 이 값들의 표준편차는 0.24x$10^{-6}$$^{\circ}C$였다.

In this paper, two different techniques for mixed-mode type engineering fracture mechanics are investigated to estimate the stress intensity factors by using p-version finite element model. These two techniques are displacement extrapolation with COD and CSD method and J-integral with decomposition method. By decomposing the displacement field obtained from p-version of finite element analysis into symmetric and antisymmetric displacement fields with respect to the crack line, Mode-I and Mode-II stress intensity factors can be determined using aforementioned techniques. The example problems for validating the proposed techniques are centrally and centrally oblique cracked panels under tension. The numerical results associated with the variation of oblique angle and the ratio of crack length and panel width (a /W ratio) are compared with those by theoretical values and empirical solutions in literatures. Very good agreements with the existing solutions are shown.

복소모드 중첩법은 점탄성 감쇠기가 설치된 비비례 감쇠시스템의 정확한 동적 거동을 예측할 수 있는 방법이지만 많은 자유도를 갖는 고층건물의 해석시 고유치 해석과 모드중첩과정에서 많은 시간과 노력이 필요하게 된다. 본 논문에서는 효율적인 모형화를 위하여 강막가정과 행렬응축기법을 적용하고 구조물의 진동에 영향을 주는 주요모드의 선택을 위한 복소모드 응답참여계수를 제안하므로써 복소모드 중첩법의 효율성은 높였다. 또한 비비례 감쇠시스템에서 감쇠를 고려하여 응답스펙트럼을 재구성한후 선택된 주요 모드를 중첩하여 최대층간변위가 발생하는 곳에 감쇠기를 설치하였다 이 방법은 감쇠기가 설치된 구조물에 대하여 만족되는 수준의 최대층간변위가 발생할 때 까지 고유치 해석만을 반복.수행하면서 감쇠기를 연속적으로 설치하는 방법이다. 제안된 방법의 정확성과 효율성을 검토하기 위하여 예제 구조물의 대상으로 해석한 결과 응답의 정확성을 유지하면서 해석에 필요한 시간을 대폭 절감할 수 있었다.

This paper presents a back-calculation technique leer the prediction of the behavior of earth wall inserted in multi-layered soil deposit. The soil properties are back-calculated from the measured displacement at each construction stage and the behavior of earth wall far the next construction stage is predicted using back-calculated soil properties. For multi-layered soil deposit, the back-calculation would be very difficult due to the increase in the number of variables. In this study, to solve this difficulty, the back-calculation was performed successively from the lowest layer to the upper layers. An efficient elasto-plastic beam-column analysis was used for forward analysis to minimize the computation time of iterative back-calculation procedure. The coefficients of subgrade reaction and lateral earth pressure necessary for the formation of p-y curve were selected as back calculation variables, and to minimize the effect of abnormal behavior of the wall which might be caused by any unexpected action during construction, the difference between measured displacement increment and computed displacement increment at each construction stages is used as the objective function of optimization. The constrained sequential linear programming was used for the optimization technique to found values of variables minimizing the objective function. The proposed method in this study was verified using numerically generated data and measured field data.
