The purpose of this paper is to study comparative analysis of cable dome structures by reinforcement effect with bracing and fabric. Tensegrity systems are stable structures which are reticulated spatial structures composed of compressive straight members, struts, and cables. Tensegrity structures need to be introduced to the initial stress for the self-equilibrated system to have a stable state. In this paper, the effect of reinforcement resisting the in-plan twisting is investigated for the Geiger-type and Zetlin-type models reinforced by bracing and fabric. The effect of initial imperfection is also studied because the structural instabilitity phenomenon of shell-like structures is very sensitive according to the initial condition. We study a more exact analysis concerning the structural instability of tensegrity structures using nonlinear analysis program. Then, two types of tensegrity models will be analysed and compared.

Stay cable is easily exposed to vibration induced rainy wind effects. There are some problems for not only unexpected vibration but also well-known vibration. An outbreak of displacement by the said effects brings damages such as over-tension of cables and barriers, fatigue of anchorages and dampers, and additional shear force variation of stiffening girders. This study suggests analytic methodology for dynamic tension variation of cables and shear force variation of stiffening girders. Additionally this study announces with dynamic problems for cable stayed bridge briefly. To realize this subject, we divide restoring force into chord component and normal component and then make up the differential equations which can satisfy physical phenomenon for each component. Finally we apply adequate functions such as sinusoidal and parabola in order to reduce these differential equations. Therefore we can meet with good results through a series of above process. As a remarkable result, CIP recommendations (2002) give inadequate solution with over 10% error. However it gives very good solution if parts of our study are reflected at the said recommendations. The fact means that CIP recommendations (2002) well-known as international standard of stay cables are not even concern about this subject yet. For verification of this study, F.E. analysis using E.C.C. with external forces was fulfilled, and the accuracy and conciseness of this study were shown.

Cables for Towed Array Sonar System(TASS) were developed. In order to verify the performance of cables, environmental and operational conditions as well as functional requirements were investigated during design stage. Double armored high and low voltage integrated cable for towed body and two kinds of cables, armored and light weight power and optic hybrid cables for towed array sensor system were developed by modeling and simulation. Customized manufacturing process and test method, such as foam extrusion and dynamic fatigue test were applied to this development. In conclusion, underwater towed hybrid cable with high tensile strength and compact structure were developed.

Steel restrainer cables for multiple frame bridges in California in the United States have been shown to be effective in preventing unseating at internal hinges during the past several earthquakes. Consequently, the steel-cable-restrainer is being tested for applications on multiple-span-simply-supported (MSSS) bridges in the mid-American region. In addition, shape memory alloy (SMA) bars in tension are being studied for the same application, multiple frame bridges, the developed seismic forces are transferred to piers through the restrainers. However, in MSSS bridges, the seismic forces are transferred to abutments by the restrainers. Therefore, the abutment' behavior should also be investigated. In this study, we assessed the seismic performance of the three types of restrainers, such as steel restrainer cables, SMA in tension, and SMA in bending for an MSSS bridge from moderate to strong ground motion, bending test of an SMA bar was conducted and its analytical model was determined for this study. Nonlinear time history analyses were conducted to assess the seismic responses of the as-built and the retrofitted bridges. All three types of restrainers reduced the hinge opening and the SMA in tension was the most effective of the three devices in preventing the unseating, all restrainers produced damage on the abutment from the pulling action of the MSSS bridge due to strong ground motions, was found that the retrofit of the abutment in the pulling action is required in the installation of restrainers in MSSS bridges.

Each static and cyclic load test was performed in a laboratory model test. As a result, ground displacement decreased and bearing capacity of the soil increased owing to the sheer strength of geosynthetics in general. In addition, numerical analysis was operated using Mohr-Coulomb, Modified Cam-Clay models, and FLAC 4.0 2D and compared with the laboratory model test. The results were shown to be of a great difference because the existing equations had not considered the characteristics that sheer strength increases with a load increment. Therefore, this paper proposes an equation of cable elements considering an effect of load given through repeated tests.

아라미드 섬유는 열에 강한 튼튼한 방향족 폴리아마이드 섬유이다. 아마이드는 "85%이상의 아미드(CO-NH)기가 두 개의 방향족 고리에 직접 연결된 합성 폴리아미드로부터 제조된 섬유"로 정의된다. 아라미드 섬유는 크게 파라계와 메타계로 대별되는데 본 연구에서 사용한 파라계 아라미드는 인장강도, 강인성, 내열성이 뛰어나며 고강력 고탄성률을 지니고 있다. 일반적인 유기 섬유와는 다른 우수한 성질을 바탕으로 부직포, UD laminatig, staple 등의 형태로 크게 섬유보강 고무 복합재료 등의 각종 복합재료, 로프, 케이블, 방탄방호용과 같은 산업자재의 용도로 자동차, 우주항공, 정보통신, 국방, 등 다양한 관련 산업분야에서 사용이 확대되고 있는 고부가 소재이며 가격대비 성능비가 우수하기 때문에 세계적으로 산업용 섬유 및 초고성능 섬유시장에서 비중이 증가될 것으로 예상되고 있다. 본 연구에서는 Para-Aramid 필라멘트를 이용하여 ATY를 생산할 때 제조공정조건에 따른 ATY 물성을 알아보고 고강도를 요구하는 방화복, 고무 보강용 섬유 등의 소재에 맞는 ATY 사가공 최적공정조건을 도출하여 체계화된 data-base를 구축하여 생산성 향상 및 품질개선과 함께 산업자재용 직물개발에 응용하고자 한다. 아라미드를 ATY로 제조할 경우, 표면에 생기는 loop로 인하여 타소재와 접착시, 접착제 담지 성능이 향상되어 접착력이 상승되는 반면, 아라미드 ATY가 기존의 아라미드의 물성보다 저하되는 약점을 가지고 있으므로 이를 보완하기 위해 본 연구에서는 ATY 제조공정에서 중요 공정인자인 사속, heater 온도, over feed ratio를 변화시켜 시료를 제조하여 이들의 물성을 분석하여 최적의 물성을 갖는 ATY 사가공 공정을 도출함으로써 물성이 저하되는 문제를 보완 가능할 것으로 기대된다. 물성분석은 강신도, 초기탄성률을 각각 측정하여 인장특성을 확인하였으며, 습열수축률과 건열수축률을 측정하여 시료의 열수축률에 대해 측정을 하였다. 표면의 루프 발현 정도를 보기 위하여 Crimp Rigidity(CR%), 형태 불안정성(instability)등을 측정하였으며, 영상 현미경 시스템을 사용하여 ${\times}40$ 배율로 표면특성을 측정하였다.

Recently, cable-stayed bridges have been attempting to apply bold and experimental shapes for aesthetic and originality. In the case of bridges that have no similar cases, deep understanding and verification of analytical modeling is needed. S-shaped curved pedestrian cable-stayed bridge is always twisted because the cable is arranged on one side of the inverted triangular truss girder. In order to suppress the torsion, the Link-shoes are arranged at the left and right top members with reference to the Bearing placed at the mid-bottom member. The first research is related to the modeling method of Link-Shoe and Diaphram. In order to accurately reflect the transverse structural system and the torsional stiffness, it was necessary to model the Link-Shoe and the Diaphram directly rather than indirectly using the stiffness of the Bearing. The second study is related to the lateral arrangement of Bearing and Link-Shoes. Method 1 is to place in order of Link-shoe, Bearing, and Link-shoe from outside the curve radius. Method 2 is place to in order of Bearing, Bearing, and Link-shoe. In method 2, compared to method 1, the stress in the outer top member was larger and the stress in the inner one was decreased. It is analyzed that the stress adjustment is possible according to the lateral arrangement of Bearing and Link-Shoe.
