Crippling stress and failure behavior of Z-section graphite/epoxy composite laminated stringers are investigated by the nonlinear finite element method. Stringers are idealized using 9-node laminated shell element. The complete unloading model is introduced into the finite element method for the progressive failure analysis. A modified Riks method is used to trace the post-failure equilibrium path after local buckling. Finite element results are validated with previous experimental results. The results show that the most important parameter affecting the crippling stress of Z-section stringers is the flange width. In terms of stacking sequence. the highest cripping stress is found at the stringer with $[{\pm}45/0/90]s$ lamination.

In this paper, an analysis of the joint that transmits power from the blades to the generator is performed using the FEM (finite element method). The mode shapes and natural frequencies were extracted using experimental modal analysis in order to establish the FEM model. Then, the model was verified by comparing the mode shapes and natural frequencies to those obtained from the ANSYS modal analysis. Dynamic stress analysis was performed at the rated and limited wind speeds considering the wind load and gravity.

자동차 배기계는 제한된 설치 공간으로 인하여 내구성과 연계된 형상을 최적화하여야 한다. 본 연구에서는 자동차 배기계를 구성하고 있는 Flexible Tube(Bellows)의 형상에 따른 응력 변화를 해석하였다. 응력 해석은 유한요소법을 이용하였고, 해석에는 8절점 쉘 요소를 사용하였으며 절점수는 100,000 정도이다. 아울러 Bellows의 변위량이 크게 발생하는 것을 고려하여 기하학적 비선형 해석을 실시하였으며 Bellows의 변형량은 끝단에서 6mm의 변위가 발생하도록 하였다.

응력 변형율의 관계가 시간에 대한 미분의 형태로 나타나는 비선형 탄소성 혹은 점탄소성 재질을 갖는 구조물이나 지만의 거동 문제를 유한요소법 등의 방법을 이용하여 해결하려고 하는 경우 주어진 외력에 의한 새로운 응력이나 응력 강화 현상을 표현하는 여러 재료 상수값들을 구하기 위해서는 적분을 요하게 되며 일반적으로 수치해석적 방법에 의해 수행된다. 이러한 수치해석적 적분방법은 보다 정확한 결과를 얻기 위하여 알고리즘 자체의 정확성과 안정성이 요구된다. 정확성은 수치해석적 적분방법이 적용될 수 있는 step size에 관계없이 거의 동일한 결과치를 얻을 수 있느냐 하는 것을 말하고 안정성은 큰 step size에서도 수렴된 결과치를 얻을 수 있느냐 하는 것을 의미한다. 그 뿐만 아니라 비교적 복잡하고도 그 대상영역이 큰 문제를 해석하고자 할 때는 수렴속도 또한 빠른 해석방법이 바람직하게 된다. 따라서 본 기사에서는 여러가지 가능한 수치해석 적분 방법을 소개하고 그들의 장단점을 논하고자 한다.

This study is devoted to the problems of thermal and shrinkage stresses in order to avoid cracking at early ages. The early-age damage induced by volume change has great influence on the long-term structural performance of the concrete structures such as its durability and serviceability To solve this complex problem, the computer programs for analysis of thermal and shrinkage stresses were developed. In these procedures, numerous material models are needed and the realistic numerical models have been developed and validated by comparison with relevant experimental results in order to solve practical problems. A framework has been established for formulation of material models and analysis with 3-D finite element method. After the analysis of the temperature, moisture and degree of hydration field in hardening concrete structure, the stress development is determined by incremental structural formulation derived from the principle of virtual work. In this study, the stress development is related to thermal and shrinkage deformation, and resulting stress relaxation due to the effect of early-age creep. From the experimental and numerical results it is found that the early-age creep p)ays important role in evaluating the accurate stress state. The developed analysis program can be efficiently utilized as a useful tool to evaluate the thermal and shrinkage stresses and to find measures for avoiding detrimental cracking of concrete structures at early ages.

An actual slope failure was analyzed in residual soils at Jinju. Due to rainfall infiltration, the safety factor decreases in the unsaturated layers, since the effective stress and shear strength decrease. In this study, the effective stress is based on suction stress using soil water retention curve. Unsaturated properties were evaluated on soil water retention curve, hydraulic conductivity and shear strength with samples from the site. After infiltration analysis of unsaturated flow under the actual rainfall, the distribution of pore water pressure could be calculated in the slope layers. In the stress field of finite elements, an elastic analysis calculated total stress distribution in the layers and also shear stresses on the slip surface using elastic model. On the slip surface, suction stress and effective stress evaluated the shear strength. As a result, the factor of safety was calculated due to rainfall, which could simulate the actual slope failure. In particular, it was found that the suction stress increases and both the effective stress and the shear strength decrease simultaneously on the slip surface.

A transient heat transfer analysis and thermo-elastic analysis have been performed for the residual stress distribution on the fillet weldment used by finite element method. Specimen is fabricated single-pass fillet welding. This computation was performed for conditions including surface heat flux and temperature dependent thermo-physical properties using by heat input as parameter. Also, cut-off temperature of residual stress estimation by thermo-elastic analysis is determined. The fillet weldment were measured to determined their residual stress distributions for using hole-drilling method. As result, it was found that large tensile residual stress is about material yield strength, and the numerical simulation results for finite element method similar to residual stresses by hole-drilling method and other exiting research. Also, cut-off temperature is effectively determined by temperature which calculated maximum thermal stress equal to material yield strength.

This paper presents the effect of groundwater on tunnel excavation. Fundamental issues in tunneling under high groundwater table are discussed and the effect of groundwater on tunnel excavation was examined using a 3D stress-pore pressure coupled finite-element analysis. Based on the results the interaction mechanism between the tunnelling and groundwater is identified for cases having different lining permeabilities. Examined items include pore pressures around lining and lining stresses. Face deformation behavior as well as ground surface movement patterns was also examined. Besides, the effect of grouting pattern was investigated. The results indicated that the effect of groundwater on tunnel excavation increases lining stresses as well as ground movements, and that the tunnel excavation and groundwater interaction can only be captured through a fully coupled analysis. Implementations of the findings from this study are discussed in great detail.
