This study was carried out to investigate the flow structure and mixing process of a cross mixing flow formed by two round jets with respect to the ratio of mass flow rate. This flow configuration is of great practical relevance in a variety of combustion systems, and the flow behaviour of a cross jet defends critically on the ratio of mass flow rate and the cross angle. The mass flow rate ratios of two different jets were controlled as 1.0, 0.8, 0.6, and 0.4, and the crossing angle of two round jets was fixed at 45 degree. The velocities issuing from jet nozzle with an exit diameter of 20mm were adjusted to 40m/s, 32m/s, 24m/s, and 16m/s, and the measurements have been conducted in the streamwise range of $1.1X_0$to $2.5X_0$ by an on-line measurement system consisted of a constant temperature type two channel hot-wire anemometry connected to a computer analyzing system. The original air flow was generated by a subsonic wind tunnel with reliable stabilities and uniform flows in the test section. For the analysis of the cross mixing flow structure in the downstream region after the cross point, the mean velocity profiles, the resultant velocity contours, and the three-dimensional profiles depending upon the mass flow rate ratio have been concentrately studied.

The purpose of this study is to investigate the generation and development of cavitation in circular and elliptical nozzles. In order to investigate the influence of cavitation, the experiment was conducted with a set of elliptical nozzles that had the same cross-sectional area, different orifice aspect ratios (a/b). Each nozzle was made of acrylic so that visualization was possible. With the injection pressure, the internal flow of the nozzle was classified into the no-cavitation, cavitation, and hydraulic-flip regions. Regardless of the nozzle geometry, with the injection pressure, the flow rate in the no-cavitation and cavitation regions increased and the discharge coefficient decreased. However, the flow rate was constant in the hydraulic-flip region. In the elliptical nozzles, the generation and development of cavitation occurred at higher cavitation number than that in the case of a circular nozzle.

The concrete filled tubular(CFT) columns have many excellent structural properites. such as high compressive strength high ductility and high absorption capacity However the confinement effect and limiting width-thickness ratio of CFT column have not yet been clarified. Therefore. this paper aims to clarify the confinement effect of steel tubes and strength of concrete filled steel tubular columns. And this paper presents results of a probabilistic analysis based on statistical data for strength of concrete filled steel tubular columns which has been tested in Korea for recent 10 years(1991.1~2000.6).

Shield tunnel having circular section located in the soil or soft rock layer is liable to deform in such a way that its two diagonal diameters crossing each other expand and contract alternately during earthquakes. Based on this knowledge, the ground-tunnel interaction effect for this particular vibration mode is investigated. The ground surrounding a tunnel is assumed to be a homogeneous elastic medium. The bonded boundary condition on the ground-tunnel interface is considered. This suggests a firm bond between the ground and the tunnel lining. As Poisson's ratio and stiffness of the ground increases, the strain induced within the tunnel lining increases.

자동차의 안전에 대한 연구는 객실의 변형제한과 승객의 감속도 축소를 위한 여러가지 구조부재의 에너지 흡수능력 및 흡수 메카니즘을 연구하는데 초점이 맞추어져 왔다. 그 이유는 충돌사고시에 인명을 보호하기 위해서는 차제변형에 의한 물리적 접촉의 회피 뿐 아니라 충돌에너지를 적절히 흡수조절하여 충돌력을 감소시키도록 구조부재를 설계함으로써 충돌안전성이 확보되기 때문이다. 충돌에너지 흡수 특성은 구조부재의 단면 형상과 재질에 따라 달라지며 압괴모드도 구분되어진다. 즉, 복합재료의 압축붕괴특성은 금속이나 플라스틱 재질과는 다르다. 일반적으로 복합재는 재질의 파손으로 에너지가 흡수되지만 금속재는 소성변형으로 에너지를 흡수한다. 이때의 붕괴양상은 작용하중에 따라 축방향 붕괴, 굽힘붕괴, 측면붕괴의 경우는 정규압괴모드(compact mode) 및 불규칙압괴모드(noncompact mode)로 나뉘고, 원통쉘의 경우는 축대칭모드 및 다이아몬드형 모드 등으로 나뉠수 있다. 원형 및 사각 튜브는 광범위한 형상비와 후폭비를 가지도록 제작할 수 있으며 산업전반에 걸쳐 널리 쓰이므로 충돌특성 연구의 대상으로 많은 연구들이 진행되어 왔다. 또한, 충돌특성의 해석을 위한 이론적 모델이 제시되었으며 계속적인 보완이 이루어져 오고 있다.

Hard X-ray has been widely used in medical and industrial fields because it can be applied to observe the inside of a sample. Computed tomography provides sectional images of the sample through the reconstruction of the projection images. The quality of sectional images strongly depends on that of projection images. Ring artifact appeared on the seconal image can be made by the abnormal pixels of the detector used. In this study, we examine the ring artifact ratio in the circle phantom as a function of detection error of the detector used in computed tomography. The ring artifact increased with the increment of detection error under parallel and fan beam geometries and strongly increased near the center of rotation. The corrections, dead pixel and flat field corrections, for the images taken with the detector are required before the image reconstruction process to reduce the ring artifact in the computed tomography.

Eight RC bridge plers have been made on a 1/3.4 scale model and have been tested in a quasi-static cyclic load so as to investigate their seismic performance. The ultimate objective of this experimental study is to investigate the hysteretic behavior of reinforced concrete plers, which have been widely used for urban transportation facilities in Korea. Improtant test parameters are hoop ratio, axial load, load pattern, and etc. And noninear behaviors of test columns have been evaluated through their yield and ultimate strength, energy dissipation, ductility and load-deflection characteristics under quasi-static cyclic loads. From the quasi-static tests on 8 bridge piers, it is concluded that energy dissipation, ultimate strength and curvature for a given displacement factor ${\mu}={\Delta}/{\Delta}_y$ are higher for the seismically designed columns than for the nonseismically designed columns.

This research was carried in order to improve design technique for the vertical shaft of which design guide has not been proposed clearly. The deformation tendency of vertical shaft and distribution of the earth pressure around shaft were reviewed with both of theoretical earth pressure distribution suggested in design criteria and measured data which had been gained from 2 constructing shaft. The distribution of earth pressure applied on the vertical shaft was similar with the result of previous theory for the earth pressure proposed by Shin (2007). Moreover it was observed that asymmetric deformation and earth pressure around vertical shaft were caused by inhomogeneity and anisotropy of the ground. The asymmetric earth pressure ratio ($R_p$) in soil and weathered rock were divergent according to the shape ratio. In addition, it is more reasonable that the value of asymmetric earth pressure ratio ($R_p$) is considered less than 0.35 in the case of constructing shaft under rock.

Bearing stress near anchor plates is usually very high due to prestressing force in anchorage zone of concrete structure used post-tensioned prestressed method. In order to effective utilization of cross section and crack control, appropriate size of anchorage plates should be used to prevent crack initiation and failure of concrete structures eventually. This study aims to suggest equation for effective area of bearing plate of rectangle type and circular type by Highway Bridge Design Specification and PTI etc. A shape factor according to bearing plate shape is suggested based on numerical analysis, and it can be used suitability for design of special anchorage plate dimension.

The scattering property of TMz illuminated perfectly conducting and dielectric cylinders of arbitrary cross section are analyzed by the boundary element techniques. The boundary element equations are formulated via Maxwell’s equations, weighted residual or Green’s theorem, and the boundary conditions. The unknown surface fields on the boundaries are then calculated by the boundary element integral equations. Once the surface fields are found, the scattered fields in from a perfectly conducting circular and elliptic cylinders, a dielectric circular and elliptic cylinders are numerically analyzed. A general computer program has been developed using the quadratic elements(higher order boundary elements) and the Gaussian quadrature.
