Although many reliability analysis and reliability-based design optimization (RBDO) methods have been developed to estimate system reliability, many studies assume the uncertainty of the design variable to be constant. In practice, because uncertainty varies with the design variable's value, this assumption results in inaccurate conclusions about the reliability of the optimum design. Therefore, uncertainty should be considered variable in RBDO. In this paper, we propose an RBDO method considering variable uncertainty. Variable uncertainty can modify uncertainty for each design point, resulting in accurate reliability estimation. Finally, a notable optimum design is obtained using the proposed method with variable uncertainty. A mathematical example and an engine cradle design are illustrated to verify the proposed method.

This study is the research appling the representative Displacement-Based Design which is the basic concept of Direct Displacement Based Design proposed by Chopra and Goel to original Reinforced Concrete structure and determining the thickness of retrofit Steel Jacket about the Maximum design ground acceleration, and developing the more improved Algorithm as well as program by the Retrofit Design method and Nonlinear analysis by the Performance design method before and after reinforcement appling the determined retrofit thickness. To predict the target displacement of retrofitted columns, a nonlinear analysis model of reinforced concrete columns has been developed to be based on the nonlinear fiber cross-sectional and segmental analysis model, and the seismic displacement level of retrofitted columns is estimated by two procedures, the direct displacement-based design method and the displacement coefficient method. In examples of seismic retrofit design, the current seismic improved design method gives good results in improvements of displacement levels and displacement ductilities of retrofitted columns.

동력 전달용 구동부품에 있어서 중공 플랜지 형상의 부품은 흔히 찾아 볼 수 있으며, 이는 높은 강도를 요구하기 때문에 강도향상을 위하여 단조에 의한 제품의 성형 방법이 많이 연구되고 있다. 중공 플랜지형상을 갖는 제품의 제조 방법으로서는 중실 플랜지 형상으로 단조하여 내경부를 절삭가공하는 방법, 중실 소재를 후방압출하여 중공 플랜지형상으로 단조하는 방법, 또는 중공의 초기소재를 사용하여 중공 플랜지형상으로 단조하는 방법이 일반적이다. 본 연구에서는 Fig. 1에 나타낸 것과 같이 중공 플랜지 형상을 갖는 기계 부품의 단조방법에 대해 연구하였으며, 중공 관의 내경을 $d^1$, 외경을 $d^2$, 플랜지부의 외경을 $D^0$, 중공 관의 두께를 t, 플랜지부의 두께를 T로 정의하였다. 중공 플랜지 형상에 있어서 공정 설계의 변수는 다양하겠으나, 본 연구에서는 중공관의 외경과 내경의 형상비 $\alpha$(=$d^2$/$d^1$), 플랜지의 폭과 중공관의 두께비 $\beta$(=B/t) 및 중공관의 두께와 플랜지의 두께비 r(=T/t)의 변화에 따른 성형조건에 관해 고찰하였다. 중공 플랜지 형상의 성형방법으로 Fig. 2에 나타낸 것과 같은 $\circled1$중실소재를 이용한 후방압출단조(backward extrusion forging)방법, $\circled2$중공 소재를 이용한 엎셋(upset forging)방법, $\circled3$중공 소재를 이용한 압조법(injection forging), $\circled4$중실소재를 이용한 압조-압출(injection-extruding forging)법의 4가지의 단조 방법을 제시 하였다. 또한, 유한요소해석을 수행하여 소성유동 형태, 유효변형률, 단조하중을 검토하고. 모델재료인 납을 이용한 실험을 통하여 이를 검증하였다. 이를 바탕으로 산업 현장에서 경험에 의존하였던 공정 설계를 보다 효과적으로 개선하기 위한 단조법을 제시하고자 하였다. 또한 중실 소재를 이용한 중공 플랜지 형상의 단조 방법 중 보다 적절한 단조방법인 압조 단조에 있어서 일반적으로 사용되고 있는 SM10C에 대한 유한요소 해석을 수행하였으며, 제품의 형상비에 따라 폴딩 결함의 발생 유무를 검토하고, 폴딩 결함 없이 단조하기 위한 중공 플랜지의 형상한계 비를 제시하였다.

Specimens with fillet-welded lap joints were fabricated from 20 mm, 60 mm, and 82 mm thick steel plates produced by Thermo Mechanical Control Process. The designed sizes of filet welds were betwen 6 mm and 16 m. The welds' axes were parallel with or perpendicular to the direction of loading or a combination of them. Specimens were axialy loaded in tension and the strength of fillet-welded joints were measured. Test results showed that the strengths of filet-welded joints are higher than the nominal strengths calculated for all the cases tested, and also approximately on the same level regardless of plate thickness and fillet weld size. Especially, the specimens with weld size les than that required by Korean design rules showed no visible defects on welds and also no str ength reduction.

In this Paper, the mechanical behavior of two reかangular plates spot-welded under free vibration is investigated in detail. The focus of the analysis is to evaluate the effect of thickness of reinforced plates with equivalent thickness. The results of this the investigation are compared with detailed finite element analysis end experiments of the plates spot-welded for various parameters, such as aspect ratio, arm ratio, and distance ratio of spot-welding Points. The conclusion obtained are as followed. 1. The effect thickness due to spot-weld is very large, such as 55% in comparison with area ratio of spot-welding joint is just 4.52%. 2 The effect of thickness with respect to the distance ratio is maximized when the distance ratio is 0.4.

This study evaluate the characteristics of stainless steel for the use of stainless steel tubes as structural members. The strength of stainless steel tube was compared with that of steel tube stub-columns through tensile experiment and compressed experiment. The selected experimental parameters were diameter (width)-thickness and section shape. The results of tests showed that stainless steel tubes could be predicted as superior to steel tubes in terms of tensile strength, yield ratio, elongation percentage, and absorption ability of energy. The yield strength of stainless steel tubes were found to be higher than the Korean Standards ($Fy=2.1tf/cm^2$) and the design strength of SIJ-ASD($Fy=2.4tf/cm^2$). It was also higher then the yield strength of steel tubes. The plastic deformation of stainless steel tubes was found to beto that of steel tubes.

An extensive effort is actively being made to implement permeable pavement systems in urban or residential areas of South Korea in order to achieve efficient water circulation system based on low impact development (LID) design concept. This study aims to establish the design factors and procedure for permeable asphalt pavements structural design. Based on the review of previous studies, the 1993 AASHTO design method is found to be adequate for permeable pavements structural design. In this study, the design program based on 1993 AASHTO design procedure in conjunction with domestic roadway design standards was developed to accommodate the characteristics of permeable asphalt pavements. Primary design parameters such as structural layer coefficients of permeable materials were successfully quantified based on literature reviews and parallel analyses. Comparable design thicknesses were obtained between the developed permeable pavement design (PPD) program and Korea pavement research program (KPRP) under different levels of traffic and subgrade load bearing capacity.
