A spherical indentation has been proposed as a nondestructive method of measuring local residual stress field in laser-voided joints. The apparent yield strengths interpreted from the spherical indentation data of as-welded cutting wheel were compared with the intrinsic yield strengths measured at nearly equivalent locations in annealed wheel. Their difference along the distance from the welding line is welding stress distribution because the intrinsic yield strength is invariant regardless of the elastic residual stress. The spherical indentations show that the laser-welded diamond cutting wheel displays a 10 min-wide distribution of the welding residual stress and has peak compressive and tensile stresses in the shank and tip regions, respectively.

This paper deals with the characteristics of deformation of the underground corrugated steel plate culverts constructed in the areas where the minimum depth of within 1.5 m soil cover is not secured in the bottom of highways. The underground corrugated steel plate culverts at shallow depth are often designed and constructed with the consideration of the minimum depth of soil cover according to the design standards, which was made in order to minimize any deformation. Additionally, if under unfavorable conditions, slabs are set up for stress relaxation to disperse and minimize the weight of loads transferred to the corrugated steel plate culverts. Nevertheless, if the underground corrugated steel plate culverts are built in areas where the minimum depth of soil cover inevitably cannot be secured, there may occur some deformation. In this paper, a research was carried out to identify the characteristics of deformation in areas where the minimum depth of soil cover is not secured. The result shows that there existed the deterioration of pavement and in its smoothness around the corners of slabs for stress relaxation. To this end, this paper studied the structural stability of the underground corrugated steel plate culverts established in the areas with no minimum depth of soil cover secured, with the consideration of causes and solutions of pavement deterioration.

In the shallow tunnel, the surrounding ground could be loosened and deformed, which could be the cause of stress change in the ground. Terzaghi has clarified the development of a ground arching induced by the deformation of a tunnel crown in the trap door tests. However, he considered only the case in which that the tunnel crown deformed uniformly. He did not consider the effect of deformation shapes. Therefore, the relation between the shape of the ground relaxation above the tunnel crown and the deformation shape of the tunnel crown is not clear yet. In this study, model tests were performed for the three types of the tunnel crown, such as uniform, concave and convex shapes. As results, it was found that the vertical load would be transferred in various types depending on the deformation shapes of the tunnel crown.

Abstract By investigating the stress redistribution caused by the preceding cut blasting when applying the pre-splitting method to tunnel round, an attempt was made to find conditions that were favorable for the propagation of cracks in contour holes. The investigation of the direction of minor principal stress in the numerical analysis revealed that the most significant factor affecting the change of the direction was the loading condition, while the core shape, rock type, and tunnel depth seemed to be less important in determining the direction of minor principal stress. Moreover, the number of cracks tended to increase with the increase of deviatoric stress. Through the model test of pre-splitting, it is confirmed that the pre-splitting method taking the stress field into account can reduce the extent of yield zone and has advantage in controlling the direction of crack than the conventional one.

Residual stresses, which can be produced during the manufacturing process, play an important role in an industrial field. Residual stresses of structures by welding process are exerting negative effect on the fatigue behavior and safety of structure. Results from the elasto-plastic finite element analysis of the welds for a nuclear component, the residual stress distribution after welding.

The Bellows Joint which was used as a absorber or safety equipment to prevent the deformation or fracture of a structure, have been analyzed by the F.E.M using axi-symmetric conical frustum element. Using the F.E.M the general behavior of Bellows Joint corrugation can be investigated easily, and the stability of the analysis be guaranteed. In annular type corrugation, the F.E.M results were agreed with those of other theoretical analyses, but in the U type corrugation, the F.E.M results were more acceptable than those of others.

비선형 해석의 중요성이 증가하고 있는 혼합형 고체 추진제의 비선형거동중 재료비선형에 대한 거시적/미시적 현상을 설명하고, 그 주요한 원인으로서 Mullin 효과와 결합제/충전미립자 사이의 접착분리(Dewetting)를 주로 고찰하였다. 이를 응용한 지금까지의 비선형 구성방정식의 개발동향을 검토하여 비교하였으며 최근에 제시되고 있는 손상변수를 분석하였다. 여러 변형률 크기에 대한 응력이완 모듈러스 실험을 통하여 변형률 크기가 손상변수로서 적합하지 않음을 보였으며, 변형률 크기에 따라 모듈러스의 저하가 크기 때문에 비선형 점탄성 해석이 중요한 문제임을 제시하였다.

An attempt is made to develop a kind of hybrid numerical method for computations of the thermal stresses during a solidification process. In this algorithm, the phase-change heat transfer analysis is perrformed by a finite volume method(FVM) and the thermal stress analysis in a solidifying body by a finite element method(FEM). The temperatures at the grid points calculated in the heat transfer analysis are transferred to those of gauss points in elements by a bi-cubic surface patch technique for the thermal stress analysis. A hyperbolic-sine constitutive law is used to prescribe the inelastic strain rate of material. Results for the unidirectional solidification process of a pure aluminum are compared with those of others and shows good agreement.

Residual stresses, which can be produced during the welding process, play an important role in an industrial field. Welding residual stresses are exerting negative effect on the fatigue behavior and integrity of structure. In this study, as a result of the thermal elasto-plastic finite element analysis for the welds of a nuclear component, the residual stress distributions are estimated for as-welded condition. Also, finite element techniques are developed to simulate the relaxation of the residual stresses according to the various mechanical stress relieving(MSR) loads such as hydrostatic pressure loading, tensile pipe-end loading, and mechanical stress improvement process(MSIP) loading. Finally, the results of residual stress redistributions for various loading conditions are compared and reviewed qualitatively and quantitatively to find an optimum loading condition.

심실 내부에 가해지는 수축력에 의해 심실 내부 벽에는 큰 무리가 될 수 있다. 이로 인해 다양한 심장질환인 부정맥, 심실 세동 등을 유발한다. 따라서 본 연구에서는 가상 심장모델을 구축하여 컴퓨터 시뮬레이션을 통한 수축이완시의 심장 상태를 살펴보고자 하였다. 이를 위해서 개 심장 모델을 활용하여 3차원으로 이뤄진 심장모델을 구현하였다. 심장모델의 전기생리학 기전에 기초한 전기전도 해석을 수행하고, 전기전도 해석 시 발생되는 칼슘이온의 농도변화를 활용하였다. 시간에 따른 칼슘 이온의 심장 수축 영향을 바탕으로 비선형 유한요소법을 이용, 3차원 심장의 수축역학을 해석하였다. 이러한 기전으로 심장 근육에 부하되는 응력(tension)를 계산하고, 이렇게 계산된 심근의 응력분포에 대해 관측 및 분석을 진행하였다.
