The purpose of this research is to propose a model for the prediction of residual strength. For this purpose, two-paremeter model based on Caprino's is developed and formulated by the ratio of indentation due to impact and normalized residual strength. The damage zone is considered only as an indentation. Impact tests are carried out on laminated composites by steel balls. Test material is carbon/epoxy laminate. The specimens are composed of $[{\pm}45^{\circ}/0^{\circ}/90^{\circ}]_2$ and $[\pm}45^{\circ}]_4$ stacking sequence and have $0.75^T{\times}0.26^W{\times}100^L(mm) dimension. A proposed model shows a good correlation with the experimental results And failure mechanism due to high impact velocity is discussed on CFRP laminates to examine the initiation and development of damage by fractography and ultrasonic image ststem. The effect of the unidirectional ply position on the residual strength is considered here.

Tube hydroforming provides a number of advantages over conventional stamping process, including fewer secondary operation, weight reduction, assembly simplification, adaptability to forming of complex structural components and improved structural strength and stiffness. In this study, the effect of the heat treatment on the hydro-formability has been investigated. By using the mild steel tube bulging test is performed at various heat treatment conditions to evaluate the hydro-formability.

In this work, effects of hyper-elastic rubber material properties on the indentation load-deflection curve and subindenter deformation are first examined via [mite 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 with an average error less than 3%.

With the increased development in downtown underground space facilities that vertically cross under a railway at a shallow depth, the demand for non-open cut method is increasing. However, most construction sites still adopt the pipe roof method, where medium and large diameter steel pipes are pressed in to form a roof, enabling excavation of the inside space. Among the many factors that influence the loosening region and loads that occur while pressing in steel pipes, the size of the pipe has the largest impact, and this factor may correspond to the magnitude of load applied to the underground structure inside the steel pipe roof. The super equilibrium method (SEM) has been developed to minimize ground disturbance and loosening load, and uses small diameter pipes of approximately 114 mm instead of conventional medium and large diameter pipes. This small diameter steel pipe is called an SEM pile. After SEM piles are pressed in and the grouting reinforcement is constructed, a crossing structure is pressed in by using a hydraulic jack without ground subsidence or heaving. The SEM pile, which plays the role of timbering, is a fore-poling pile of approximately 5 m length that prevents ground collapse and supports surface load during excavation of toe part. The loosening region should be adequately calculated to estimate the spacing and construction length of the piles and stiffness of members. In this paper, we conducted a comparative analysis of calculations of loosening load that occurs during the press-in of SEM pile to obtain an optimal design of SEM. We analyzed the influence of factors in main theoretical and empirical formulas applied for calculating loosening regions, and carried out FEM analysis to see an appropriate loosening load to the SEM pile. In order to estimate the soil loosening caused by actual SEM-pile indentation and excavation, a steel pipe indentation reduction model test was conducted. Soil subsidence and soil loosening were investigated quantitatively according to soil/steel pipe (H/D).

The carrying capacity of existing concrete structures is evaluated by the measured data from displacement and strain gauges for given loads and the results of numerical analysis that are compared with the measured ones. Consequently, this process could be accomplished in doing the direct measurement of residual stress on existing concrete. This study is concerned with the development of IITC (Instrumented Indentation Technique for Concrete) system which is based on the experimental stress analysis technique using non-destructive test method to evaluate the residual stress of concrete structures depending on the types of applied loadings in analysing indentation load - indentation depth curve derived experimentally on concrete surface. As a result, in this paper, almost all of systematized H/W and S/W were newly developed to estimate the residual stresses of concrete structures. Thus, the creation of new experimental equations for deriving residual stresses and automatical calculations of residual stresses using the empirical formula can lead to evaluate the structural resistances conveniently in the structures from construction phase to maintenance stage.

현대 반도체 금속배선 연구에서는 기존에 쓰이던 Al (Aluminium) 금속배선 대신에 Cu(Copper) 금속배선 연구가 진행 되고 있다. Cu는 Al 보다 비저항이 낮고, 녹는점도 Al보다 높다는 장점이 있지만 저온에서 기판인 Si (Silicon) 과 반응하고 접착력이 우수하지 못 하다는 단점이 있다. 이런 문제를 해결하기 위하여 확산방지막을 기판과 금속배선 사이에 삽입하는 방법이 제시 되었다. 확산방지막으로는 기존에 쓰이던 Ti (Titanium) 계열의 확산방지막과 W (Tungsten) 계열의 확산방지막이 있다. 이번 연구에서는 W 계열의 확산방지막에 불순물 C (Carbon), N(Nitrogen)을 첨가한 W-C-N 확산방지막 시편을 제조하였고, N2의 비율을 변화시키며 $600^{\circ}C$ 열처리를 하였다. 실험 결과 질소의 포함 농도에 따라 확산방지막의 안정도가 변화한다는 결과를 얻었으며, 질소 첨가량에 따라 시편의 표면 보다는 시편의 중간층의 물성 변화율이 큰데 이는 시편 표면의 질소는 열처리 중 확산에 의한 시편과의 분리 현상이 일어나지만 시편의 중간층은 trap현상에 의하여 시편에 남아있어 질소의 영향을 받아 시편의 중간층이 더욱 질소 유량에 따른 영향이 큰 것을 확인하였다. 이 결과로부터 W-C-N 박막은 첨가된 질소의 유량에 따라 박막의 안정도가 결정된 다는 것을 알았다. 본 연구에서 시편은 rf magnetron sputtering 방법으로 제작하였고 연속압입 실험은 Hysitron사의 Triboindenter를 이용하였다. Indenting에 사용된 압입팁은 Berkovich tip을 사용하였다.

The simple and effective optical technique synthesizing holographic interferometry and speckle photography is presented. The optical system used in this experiment is based on image holography. A cantilever beam located on the precision translator is used to evaluate this measurement system. Experimental results agree well with the actual displacements within the error of 2.8%. As an its application, three dimensional contact deformation in the ball indentation is measured by using this optical system and compared with the numerical analysis by finite element method.

An optimization method for the tube hydroforming process is developed using the equivalent static loads method for non linear static response structural optimization (ESLSO). The aims of the tube hydroforming optimization are to determine the axial forces (axial feedings) and the internal pressures, and to obtain the desired shape without failures after hydroforming analysis. Therefore, the magnitude of the forces should be design variables in the optimization process. Also, some tube hydroforming optimization needs to consider the result of the thickness in nonlinear dynamic analysis as responses. However, the external forces are considered as constants and the thickness is not a response in the linear response optimization process of the original ESLSO. Thus, a new ESLSO process is proposed to overcome the difficulties and some examples are solved to validate the proposed method.
