This paper provides a comparison between finite element analysis results and test data of rupture disc. Rupture disc is safety device of high pressure equipment. Rupture disc of solid rocket motor is a device to control rupture pressure. Rupture discs were made of AISI 316L. By the elastic-plastic analysis, the stress limit of rupture discs were compared to the test results. The results can be used to control the rupture pressure by the change of the disc size.

This paper presents a comparative study of reinforced soil slope by using LEM and SSR-FEM. Current analysis methods for reinforced soil wall are based on LEM. SSR-FEM assumes a reduction of soil strength by a factor to reach a critical state prior to failure based on continuum mechanics. In this study the comparisons are concerned with the factor of safety and the potential failure surface in reinforced soil wall. We investigated the stability of the reinforced soil wall with a slope of $60^{\circ}$ by LEM and SSR-FEM. The comparisons indicated good performance of the SSR-FEM on stability analysis of reinforce soil wall.

The present paper provides plastic limit load solutions of axial and circumferential through-wall cracked pipes based on detailed three-dimensional (3-D) finite element (FE) limit analysis using elastic-perfectly-plastic behavior. As a loading condition, axial tension, global bending moment, internal pressure, combined tension and bending and combined internal pressure and bending are considered for circumferential through-wall cracked pipes, while only internal pressure is considered for axial through-wall cracked pipes. Especially, more emphasis is given for through-wall cracked pipes subject to combined loading. Comparisons with existing solutions show a large discrepancy in short through-wall crack (both axial and circumferential) for internal pressure. In the case of combined loading, the FE limit analyses results show thickness effect on limit load solutions. Furthermore, the plastic limit load solution for circumferential through-wall cracked pipes under bending is applied to derive plastic $\eta\;and\;{\gamma}$-factor of testing circumferential through-wall cracked pipes to estimate fracture toughness. Being based on detailed 3-D FE limit analysis, the present solutions are believed to be meaningful fur structural integrity assessment of through-wall cracked pipes.

The present work reports the mismatch limit loads for a V-groove welded pipe for a circumferential crack using finite element (FE) analyses. To integrate the effect of groove angles on mismatch limit loads, one geometry-related slenderness parameter was modified by relevant geometric parameters including the groove angle, crack depth, and root opening based on plastic deformation patterns in the theory of plasticity. Circumferential through-wall cracks are located at the centre of the weldments with two different groove angles ($45^{\circ}$, $90^{\circ}$). With regard to the loading conditions, axial (longitudinal) tension and bending are applied for all cases. For the parent and weld metal, elastic-perfectly plastic materials are considered to simulate and analyze under- and over-matching conditions in plasticity. The overall results from the proposed solutions are found to be similar to the FE results.

버트리스 푸팅 케슨(Buttress footing caisson) 및 상형 푸팅 케슨의 역학특성을 해명하고 구조설계법을 검토할 목적으로 재하실험을 실시했다. 재하실험에는 배근의 제약등을 고려해서 실구조물의 1/4정도의 대형모형공시체를 사용해서 푸팅부를 중심으로 해석하기위해 푸팅에 선분포하중을 재하했다. 유한요소법에 따른 선형구조해석을 실시하여 변위, 단면력과 한계상황설계법에서의 산정식에서 얻어진 단면내력과를 비교하여 동설계법의 케슨구조물에 대한 적용성에 관하여 고찰했다. 이 보고로써 얻어진 주요한 결론은 아래와 같다. (1) 재하실험에 의하면 버트리스 푸팅공시체의 파괴형식은 버트리스부의 철근에 연한 부착할열파괴였다. 또 상형푸팅공시체에서는 푸팅부의 내면전단파괴였다. 양구조물을 설계할 때는 종래의 면외력만의 검토뿐아니라 면내력도 적절히 평가할 필요가 있다. (2) 양공시체 함께 푸팅 케슨본체와의 접합부 및 푸팅과 상자옆쪽의 벽과의 접합부에 변형이 일어나 종래의 판구조설계에서 가정하고 있는 판주변의 고정조건이 만족되지 않았다. 따라서 케슨구조물의 구조해석에서 구조전체계를 취급할 필요가 있고 부재단위에서는 단면력을 과대 또는 과소로 산정할 우려가 있다. (3) 철근강복시정도까지는 구조전체계를 모델화한 유한요소법에 의한 선형구조해석결과와 실험결과가 잘 일치했다. (4) 한계상태설계법에서의 굽음내력, 전단내력 및 구열폭의 산정식은 실험결과와 비교해서 어느쪽이나 안전측의 치를 부여했다.

In limit equilibrium methods(LEM), all methods employ the same definition of the safety factor as a ratio of the shear strength of the soil to the shear stress required for equilibrium, employing certain assumptions with regard to equilibrium. In addition, in the conventional finite element method of analysis, the minimum safety factor is obtained assuming certain slip surfaces after the state of stress are found. Although the stress states are obtained from the finite element method(FEM), the slope stability analysis follows the conventional method that assumes a potential slip surface. In this study, a slope stability analysis based on FEM is developed to locate the slip surface by tracking the weakest points in the slope based on the local safety factor considering the magnitude and direction of the shear stresses. It has also been applied to be compared with the slip surfaces predicted by LEM. A computer program has been developed to draw contour lines of the local safety factors automatically. This method is illustrated through a simple hypothetical slope, a natural soil slope, and a dam slope. The developed method matches very well with the conventional LEM methods, with slightly lower global safety factors.

Finite Element Method is a strong tool to analyse static and dynamic problem of a structure. FEM is a good method for static problem, but for dynamic problem there are some differences between real phenomena and analyzed phenomena. Therefore some modifications are needed to identify two results. In this paper authors propose a genetic algorithm method 1) to adjust dimensions of plate for identifying natural frequencies, 2) to fit amplitude of FEM Frequency Response Function(FRF) onto it of real FRF. Analysis by raw FEM data gave questions if the results were for the same object. By only adjusting Young's modulus much better accordances were obtained, but limitation existed still. Very good agreements were achieved by shape modification and damping coefficient identification.

자기 브레이크(Magnetic Brake)는 기계식 브레이크와 달리 비접촉식으로 제동이 가능하여, 마모 등에 따른 제동 효과의 저감이나 브레이크의 수명 단축을 배제할 수 있어 그 사용 범위가 확장되고 있는 추세이다. 특히 최근에는 영구자석의 발전에 힘입어, 강한 보자력을 갖고 있는 영구자석이 개발됨에 따라 코일 둥의 능동 요소 없이 반영구적으로 효과적인 제동을 발휘 할 수 있다［1］. 자기 브레이크는 고속 이송 또는 회전 시 기계식 브레이크에서 발생되는 점착(adhesion) 현상으로 인한 성능 한계를 극복하기 위하여 개발되어 왔으며, 최근에는 자기 부상 분야와 고속 주행 차량의 마멸에 의한 기계식 브레이크의 성능 감소를 피하기 위해 이용되고 있다.(중략)

빈발하고 있는 대규모 홍수와 자연재해는 정확도가 높은 하천 흐름 수치해석 모델에 대한 관심의 증대로 이어지고 있다. 현재 하천에서 발생하는 일반적인 흐름은 기존에 개발된 여러 형태의 천수방정식을 지배방정식으로 하는 수치기법에 의해 해석되고 있으나, 연속적이지 않은 형태의 흐름을 해석하거나 매우 정확한 해석을 필요로 하는 경우에는 기존의 수치해석기법은 많은 한계를 보여 주고 있다. 본 연구에서는 불연속 갤러킨 기법 기반의 흐름 모델을 개발하고, 이를 이용하여 천이류로 분류되는, 댐 붕괴파, 둔덕위 흐름과 2차원 사류의 모의에 적용하여 기존의 수치해와 잘 일치함을 확인하였다.

In this paper, a probability-based reliability analysis was proposed based on a finite element method-based random vibration analysis and serviceability limit state of structures. The limit state model defined for the study is a serviceability limit state in terms of the more realistic crack failure that might cause the emission of radioactive materials. The SAP V-2 is used for a three-dimensional finite element analysis of concrete containment structure, and the reliability analysis is carried out by modifying HRAS reliability analysis program for this study. In this study, the load factors for the design of reinforced concrete cointainment structures in Korea are proposed by considering appropriate load combination criteria for design, and the results are compared with the present ASME code. The proposed load factors were proved to be in accordance with a set of code performance objective and showed consistency in the limit state probability.
