With the wide applications of fiber-reinforced composite material in aero-structures and mechanical parts, the design of composite joints have become a very important research area because the joints are often the weakest areas in composite structures. This paper presents an analytical study of the stress distributions in mechanically single-fastened and multi-fastened composite laminates. The finite element models which treat the pin and hole contact problem using a contact stress analysis are described. A dimensionless stress concentration factor is used to compare the stress distributions in composite laminates quantitatively In the case of single-pin loaded composite laminate, the effects of stacking sequence, the ratio of a hole diameter and the width of a laminate (W/D ratio), the ratio of hole diameter and distance from edge to hole (E/D ratio), friction coefficient and clamping force are considered. In the case of multi-pin loaded composite laminate, the influence of the number of pins, pitch distance, number of rows, row spacing and hole pattern are considered. The results show that P/D ratio and E/D ratio affect more on stress distributions near the hole boundary than the other factors. In the case of multi-pin loaded composite laminate, the stress concentration in the double column case is better than the other cases of multi-pin loaded composite laminate.

V-노치 균열에서 열하중이 작용하는 경우는 비제차형 경계조건의 문제가 되고, 이 조건에 대한 방정식의 일반해를 구하기 위해서 재차형 연립방정식에 대한 일반해(Homogeneous solution)와 비제차형 연립방정식에 대한 특수해(Particular solution)의 두 가지 해를 구할 수 있다. 이들 해는 V-노치 균열에 대한 고유치가 되고 이 고유치가 중복근을 가지게 되는 경우에는 로그항(1n[r])이 나타나게 되고 이 항에 의해서 응력을 무한대로 발산시키므로 이를 대수응력특이성이라 한다. 열하중이 작용할 때 대수응력특이성을 나타내는 로그항의 계수가 영(0)이 되어 대수응력특이성이 사라지게 되므로 V-노치 선단에서의 응력특이성은 고유치와 그에 대한 고유벡터에 의해 결정된다. 본 논문에서는 비정상상태 열하중이 가해지는 등방성 이종재료 내의 V-노치 균열문제에서 패기 각도와 이종재료의 기계적 성질에 의해 결정되는 응력특이성지수를 구하고 이에 대한 응력강도계수를 유한요소해석 프로그램인 ANSYS와 상반일 경로 적분법(RWCIM)을 이용하여 구하였다.

We proposed a numerical method for the thermo-mechanical behavior of rock fracture using a grain-based distinct element model (GBDEM) and simulated thermally induced fracture slip. The present study is the benchmark simulation performed as part of DECOVALEX-2023 Task G, which aims to develop a numerical method to estimate the coupled thermo-hydro-mechanical processes within the crystalline rock fracture network. We represented the rock sample as an assembly of Voronoi grains and calculated the interaction of the grains (blocks) and their interfaces (contacts) using a distinct element code, 3DEC. Based on an equivalent continuum approach, the micro-parameters of grains and contacts were determined to reproduce rock as an elastic material. Then, the behavior of the fracture embedded in the rock was characterized by the contacts with Coulomb shear strength and tensile strength. In the benchmark simulation, we quantitatively examined the effects of the boundary stress and thermal stress due to heat conduction on fracture behavior, focusing on the mechanism of thermally induced fracture slip. The simulation results showed that the developed numerical model reasonably reproduced the thermal expansion and thermal stress increment, the fracture stress and displacement and the effect of boundary condition. We expect the numerical model to be enhanced by continuing collaboration and interaction with other research teams of DECOVALEX-2023 Task G and validated in further study experiments.

In the present study, we proposed a numerical method for simulating thermally induced fracture slip using a grain-based distinct element model (GBDEM). As a part of DECOVALEX-2023, the thermo-mechanical loading test on a saw-cut rock fracture conducted at the Korea Institute of Civil Engineering and Building Technology was simulated. In the numerical model, the rock sample including a saw-cut fracture was represented as a group of random Voronoi polyhedra. Then, the coupled thermo-mechanical behavior of grains and their interfaces was calculated using 3DEC. The key concerns focused on the temperature evolution, thermally induced principal stress increment, and fracture normal and shear displacements under thermo-mechanical loading. The comparisons between laboratory experimental results and the numerical results revealed that the numerical model reasonably captured the heat transfer and heat loss characteristics of the rock specimen, the horizontal stress increment due to constrained displacement, and the progressive shear failure of the fracture. However, the onset of the fracture slip and the magnitudes of stress increment and fracture displacement showed discrepancies between the numerical and experimental results. We expect the numerical model to be enhanced by continuing collaboration and interaction with other research teams of DECOVALEX-2023 Task G and validated in further study.

The time-dependent temperature distribution across the section in bridges is determined on the basis of the three-dimensional finite element analyses and numerical time integration in this study. The material properties which change with time and thermal stress of concrete are taken into account to effectively trace the early-age structural responses. Since the temperature distribution is nonlinear and depends upon many material constants such as the thermal conductivity, specific heat, hydration heat of concrete, heat transfer coefficients and solar radiation, three representative influencing factors of the construction season, wind velocity and bridge pavement are considered at the parametric studies. The validity of the introduced numerical model is established by comparing the analytical predictions with results from previous analytical studies. On the basis of parametric studies for four different bridge sections, it is found that the creep deformation in concrete bridges must be considered to reach more reasonable design results and the temperature distribution proposed in the Korean bridge design specification need to be improved.

Sn(또는 SnAg)/Ni(P)와 Sn/Cu 계의 열사이클동안 형성되는 금속간화합물에 의해 유기되는 응력의 변화를 in-situ로 관찰하였다. Sn(또는 SnAg)/Ni(11.7P) 박막은 계면반응으로 인해 $Ni_3P$와 $Ni_3Sn_4$ 상이 형성되고 이때 인장응력이 발생하였으며, 한편, Sn(또는 SnAg)/Ni(3P) 박막의 계면반응에 의해서는 동일한 $Ni_3P$와 $Ni_3Sn_4$ 상이 형성됨에도 불구하고 압축응력이 발생하였다. SmAg를 사용할 때 형성되는 $Ag_3Sn$이 응력에 미치는 영향은 거의 없었다. Sn/Cu 박막의 경우는 계면반응 초기에는 인장응력이 발생하였고 어느 정도 이상 반응이 진전됨에 따라 압축응력이 발생하였고 최종적으로 $Cu_3Sn$ 상이 형성되었다. 초기의 인장응력은 계면에서 원자들의 intermixing 베 의한 것이고 압축응력은 Sn 방향으로 일방향 성장하는 금속간화합물 형성에 기인한다.

The piping systems in the steam-driven power engines lie under the cyclic condition of thermal expansion and contraction by superheated steam. These phenomena might cause some severe damages on the pipes and the accessory devices. To avoid these damages, the calculation of the proper strength and the consideration of the reduced resultant forces on the materials are needed. In the present study, numerical investigations on the effects of the thermal deformation of the industrial piping system were performed with comparison of the design data. Commercial software, ABAQUS with the thermal-fluidic loadings based on the design conditions was used for the thermal stress analysis of the piping system. From the analysis of the initially-designed pipe supporters, the rearrangement was suggested to improve the piping design.

This paper addresses a method which can be used for analyzing thermal stresses of a functionally graded material(FGM) using semi-analytical approach. FGM is a nonhomogeneous material whose composition is changed continuously from a metal surface to a ceramic surface. An infinite one dimensional FGM plate is considered. The temperature distribution in the FGM is obtained by approximate Green's function solution. To expedite the convergence of the solutions, alternative Green's function solution is derived and shows good agreement with results from finite difference method. Thermal stresses are calculated using temperature distribution of the plate.
