The purpose of this study is to investigate the flexural behavior of circular concrete filled carbon tube(CFCT) columns subjected to constant axial load with the cyclic lateral load. Six numbers of composite columns were tested. Two parameters, winding angle and thickness of tube, were chosen to evaluate the flexural capacity and behavior of CFCT columns. Selected two parameters were considered simultaneously in order to evaluate the flexural behavior of CFCT columns more precisely. Flexural strength, deformation capacity, ductility and energy dissipation capacity of CFCT columns were evaluated by calculating the area of load-displacement envelop curves and load-displacement hysteresis curves obtained from experiment. Also, the ductile capacity obtained from experiment were compared to that of reinforced masonry wall for the comparison of existing structural element.

응축기, 증발기, 전열관에 사용되는 Fin Tube는 열전달효율 향상을 위하여 Fin의 높이 를 증가시키고, Tube의 최소두께를 얇게 가공하는 경향으로 발전하고 있다. 따라서, Fin Tube의 와전류탐상(ECT; Eddy Current Testing)에 의한 결함검출에 더욱 어려움이 예상된다. 본 연구에서는 Fin Tube의 Fin 높이를 3단계로 변화시켜 Tube를 제작하고, Tube에 축 방향결함, 원주방향결함, 원형결함을 각각 Fin Tube의 안쪽에 최소두께의 20%, 40%, 60% 의 동일결함율을 갖는 인공결함 시험편을 제작하였다. 제작한 원형결함시험편에 와전류탐상을 수행하여 Fin 높이에 따른 최적주파수의 변화를 연구하였다. Fin높이가 다른 원형결함 시험편에 1~20KHz 주파수를 적용한 결과 최적주파수는 12KHz로 Fin높이에 크게 영향을 받지 않음을 밝혔다 또한 Fin높이에 따른 최적주파수변화는 크지 않으나 Fin 높이가 높을수록 100%관통결함의 위상각(40')에 근접하여 나타났다. 축방향결함, 원주방향결함, 원형결함을 갖는 시험편에 와전류탐상을 수행한 결과 원형결함을 갖는 시험편의 신호 감도가 축방향결함, 원주방향결함보다 좋게 나타났다.

Intra-Vascular Ultra-Sound (IVUS) transducers were developed for the application to diagnose coronary diseases. The transducer consists of 32 piezoelectric elements with a front insulation layer and a polymeric acoustic backing layer on a hollow alumina tube. The optimal geometrical structure of the transducer was designed through theoretical analysis of radiation patterns of the transducer. Samples of the IVUS transducers of the diameter of 3㎜ were fabricated to illustrate the design scheme. For the piezoelectric elements, 2-2 mode piezocomposite materials were employed. Experimental performance of the transducers showed good agreement with the design results, which verified feasibility of the transducer for IVUS applications.

Flexural capacity estimation test of concrete filled carbon tube (CFCT) column under the cyclic lateral load was carried out in this study. Thickness of carbon tube and winding angles of carbon fiber were chosen as test parameters and two types of column with square and circular sections were manufactured. To act axial and lateral load, three dynamic actuators were used and all specimens were made with actual size. Flexural stiffness, ability of deformation, energy dissipation capacity and ductility behavior. of CFCT column were analyzed with test data.

A sudden increase in combustion pressure is observed in the ducted rocket combustion test equipped with pipe shaped and converging nozzle exhaust tubes. This study aims to understand the physical mechanism of abrupt change in combustion pressure using thermal choking in the exhaust tube. Results confirmed that the thermal choking of the flow inside the exhaust tube was responsible for the sudden increase in combustion pressure. Also, high pressure exponent of solid propellants is critical sensitive to the occurrence of thermal choking exhaust pipe. Additionally, numerical simulation showed that the sudden increase in combustion pressure was less possible in diverging pipe because thermal choking is more reluctant to occur.

A series of injection and drainage test were conducted on an circular acrylic tube to investigate the pressure generated by the accumulated fill materials inside a circular acrylic tube structure. The acrylic tube was filled by means of gravity filling with a slurry material having an average water content of 700%. The water head during the filling process was 1.8m and the bottom pressure during initial filling was 20.18kPa. The recorded stress at the sides of the acrylic tube was 17.89kPa during the filling process and was reduced to 13.58kPa during the leaving process. Continuous drainage of the acrylic tube has greatly influenced the stresses around the tube structure. As the water is gradually allowed to overflow, the generated pressure at the topmost pressure sensor of the tube was reduced further to 2.17kPa. Eventually, the initially liquid state slurry material transforms into plastic state after water has dissipated and substantial soil particles are deposited in the acrylic tube. The final water content of the deposited silt inside the acrylic tube after the test was 42%. It was found that the state of stresses(geo-static earth pressures) in the acrylic tube was anisotropic rather than isotropic.

In this paper, a numerical model for a Kevlar/Epoxy and Carbon-Kevlar/Epoxy tube used as an energy absorbing component has been developed and then results have been verified through experiment. The 2D shell element and Chang-Chang failure criterion of LS-DYNA that is commercial explicit FE code was used. Mechanical material properties for the model were obtained by material testing in advance. The numerical results were compared with quasi-static test results under axial compressive loading at 10mm/min. From the results, in the case of the Kevlar/Epoxy tube, load-crushed displacement curves were very close to the experiments and SEA (specific energy absorption) shows a good agreement with experimental one within less than 6%. However, the Carbon-Kevlar/Epoxy tube shows some differences with the experimental results.

The circular composite tubes have been used as a main spar of HALE-UAV(High Altitude Long Endurance-Unmanned Air Vehicle). In this paper, an analytical model is presented for the prediction of the failure load of unsymmetrically stiffened circular spar using a modified Brazier approach. This model was used to predict the moment carrying capacity of the unsymmetrically stiffened circular spar. From the results, we can know that a stiffened cap placed in the top sector of a spar increased the bending capabilities. Four point bending tests were conducted to estimate the effect of the cap on the failure load and compared with the proposed model. And numerical simulations were performed to analyze the behavior of stiffened circular spar. Comparisons of the results from the proposed model with those from experiments and numerical modes show good correlation.

In this study, circular concrete column specimens confined by carbon sheet tube with different winding angles and different number of carbon sheet plies(3T, 5T and 7T) were tested to propose design equations and a strength reduction factor. Specimens were designed by 300 mm diameter and 600 mm height with $90^{\circ}{\pm}0^{\circ}$, $90^{\circ}{\pm}30^{\circ}$, $90^{\circ}{\pm}45^{\circ}$, $90^{\circ}{\pm}60^{\circ}$, $90^{\circ}{\pm}75^{\circ}$ and $90^{\circ}{\pm}90^{\circ}$ carbon fiber angles. A 10,000 kN UTM was used for compressive strength test of specimens by displacement control method with 0.01 mm/sec velocity. Estimation equations of compressive strength and ultimate strain of circular concrete column specimens confined by carbon sheet tube using a regression analysis and a strength reduction factor to apply ultimate strength design method of concrete were proposed. The strength reduction factor(${\phi}$) of circular concrete columns confined by carbon sheet tube was estimated as 0.64 by the Monte Carlo Analysis Method. Manufacture and construction process have to be perfectly managed by construction managers because the structural capacities of carbon tubes were depends on construction abilities of manufacturing operators.
