Generally, it is known that the reduced integration, modified shape function anisoparametric and non-conforming element can minimize the error induced by stiffness locking phenomenon in the finite element analysis. In this study, new anisoparametric curved beam elements are introduced by using different shape functions in each displacement field. When these shape functions are substitute for functional, we can expect that the undulate stress patterns are not appeared or minimized because there is no unmatched coefficient in the constrained energy equation. As a result of numerical test, the undulate stress patterns are disappeared, and displacement and stress are coincide with the exact solutions.

원전 배관계통에 LBB를 적용하면 배관파단으로 인한 동적영향(dynamic effect)을 고려하지 않아도 되므로 각종 구조물의 설계가 단순해지고, 배관파단에 대비해 설치하였던 각종 지지구조물들을 제거할 수 있으므로 설계비용 절감 등 경제적 이점을 얻을 수 있다. 본 논문의 목적은 차세대원전 안전주입 및 정지냉각계통 배관에 대해 설계초기단계에서 LBB적용 여부를 판단할 수 있는 배관평가선도를 개발하는 것이다. 이를 위해 먼저 배관재료의 응력-변형률곡선을 사용하여 감지가능한 균열길이를 산출하였으며, 3차원 유한요소해석과 배관재료의 파괴저항곡선을 이용한 균열안정성평가를 수행하여 배관평가선도를 개발하였다. 본 연구에서 개발한 배관평가선도를 배관설계초기단계에 사용하면 LBB적용여부로 인한 설계변경과정이 불필요하므로 전체공기를 단축할 수 있으며, 특정한 배관계통이 아닌 일반 배관계통에 적용할 수 있으므로 LBB해석회수를 상당히 줄일 수 있다.

The determination of the stress intensity factors is investigated by means of a surface integral defined around the crack tip of the structure. It has been shown in this work that this integral is derived from the standard path integral J. The use of the surface integral has also been extended to the case where body forces act. Computer program obtaining the stress intensity factors $K_I$ and $K_{II}$ is developed, which prepares input variables from the result of the conventional finite element analysis. This paper provides a parabolic smooth curve function. By the use of the function and conventional element meshes in which the aspect ratio (element length/crack length)is about 25 percent, relatively correct $K_I$ and $K_{II}$ values can be obtained for the exterior radius ranging from 1/3 to 1 of the crack length.

In this study uniaxial cyclic loading tests were performed on Cheon-Ho Mt. Limestone specimens to investigate the fatigue failure behavior. The loading rate was kept constantly at 760kg/$\textrm{cm}^2$/sec under cyclic loading. In order to reveal the fatigue behavior for each rock type, the test results were mutually compared with previous studies carried out on Indiana Limes-tone and Seong-Ju Sandstone. Fatigue data is presented in the form of S-N curves, which illustrate the relationship of maximum applied stress(S) to the number of cycles(N) required to produce failure. For the purpose of comparing the S-N curves for each rock type, the test data were formulated up to 10$^4$cycles and the correlation coefficients(R) on Cheon-Ho Mt. Limestone and Seong-Ju Sandstone specimen are 0.886 and 0.983, respectively. All three rock specimens were found to have shorter fatigue life at higher applied stress levels. The fatigue life for each rock type was considered as no less than 81.5, 70 and 74.8%, for Cheon-Ho Mt. Limestone, Indiana Limestone and Seong-Ju Sandstone, respectively. The comparison in static strength for monotonic loaded specimens and specimens which did not fail even after 10$^4$cycles indicated that the increasing rate of strength was about 6.18 and 10.96% , for Cheon-Ho Mt. Limestone and Indiana Limestone, respectively. Poisson's ratio and volumetric strain for Cheon-Ho Mt. Limestone and Seong-ju Sandstone, tended in all the cases to rapidly increase at higher stress levels and with an increase in number of cycles. This increasing trend becomes rapid and obvious just before failure. Also Poisson's ratio and volumetric strain for each stress level were compared and analyzed at the first cycle and the cycle prior to failure.

The object of this study was to investigate the flexural stress blocks of High Strength Concrete Members under monotonic loading. Such a stress block should be clearly idealized before High Strength Concrete can be used with confidence in Structural Members. The principal test variables were the Compressive Strength of Concrete, the percentage of longitudinal reinforcement and the spacing of confinement reinforcement. The rectangular stress block of the present ACI Building Code was found to give acceptably conservative flexural strength predictions over the entire range of concrete strength from 280kg/crd (4Ksi)to 1050kg/crd( 15Ksi)

Recently, non-destructive stress measurement method using magnetic anisotropy sensor has been applied to the construction site such as steel bridges and steel pipes. In addition, steel rib used in the tunnel construction site was found to be possible to measure the stress by non-destructive method. In this study, steel loading experiments using magnetic anisotropy sensor developed in Japan and strain gauges were conducted to derive stress sensitivity curve for domestic steel SS400. Also, additional steel loading experiments and numerical analysis were performed for evaluation of applicability for non-destructive stress measurement method using magnetic anisotropy sensor. As a result of this study, stress sensitivity curves for domestic steel SS400 were derived using output voltage measured by magnetic anisotropy sensor and average of stress measured by strain gauges depending on the measurement location. And as a result of comparing additional steel loading experiments with the numerical analysis, error level of magnetic anisotropy sensor is around 20MPa. When considering the level of the yield stress(245MPa) of steel, in case of using magnetic anisotropy sensor in order to determine the stress status of steel, it has sufficient accuracy in engineering. Especially, magnetic anisotropy sensor can easily identify the current state of stress which considers residual stress at steel structure that stress measurement sensor is not installed, so we found that magnetic anisotropy sensor can be applied at maintenance of steel structure conveniently.

This paper presents the applicability of rheological models for describing fine-laden debris flows and analyzes the flow characteristics as a function of grain size. Two types of soil samples were used: (1) clayey soils - Mediterranean Sea clays and (2) silty soils - iron ore tailings from Newfoundland, Canada. Clayey soil samples show a typical shear thinning behavior but silty soil samples exhibit the transition from shear thinning to the Bingham fluid as shear rate is increased. It may be due to the fact that the determination of yield stress and plastic viscosity is strongly dependent upon interstructrual interaction and strength evolution between soil particles. So grain size effect produces different flow curves. For modeling debris flows that are mainly composed of fine-grained sediments (<0.075 mm), we need the yield stress and plastic viscosity to mimic the flow patterns like shape of deposition, thickness, length of debris flow, and so on. These values correlate with the liquidity index. Thus one can estimate the debris flow mobility if one can measure the physical properties.

Multiaxial loading by combinations of tension-torsion-internal pressure have been applied to the thins-walled tubular specimens prepared from cold drawn tubes of SAE 1020 steel. Prior to the multiaxial loading, each specimen has been twisted to different shear strains. Uniaxial tensile yield stresses measured at different angles to the tube axis clearly show that the initial orthotropic symmetry is maintained during twisting. The orthotropy axes are observed to rotate with shear strains. The plane stress yield locus measured for each twisted specimens show that yield surface shape does not remain similar during twisting and thus anisotropic work hardening is not a function of only plastic work.

In this work, some inaccuracies and limitation of prior indentation theory, which is based on the deformation theory of plasticity and experimental observations, are first investigated. Then effects of major material properties on the configuration of indentation load-deflection curve are examined via incremental plasticity theory based finite element analyses. It is confirmed that subindenter deformation and stress-strain distribution from the deformation theory of plasticity are quite dissimilar to those from incremental theory of plasticity. We finally suggest the optimal data acquisition location, where the strain gradient is the least and the effect of friction is negligible. This data acquisition point increases the strain range by a factor of five.
