The purpose of this research is to examine experimentally the mechanical properties and economics of No-fines concrete for its application to the low-rise housing construction. Basic mechanical properties of No fines concrete are studied by measuring of compressive, tensile strength and stress-strain relationship, and economics of it is compared with other materials in unit cost and wall construction cost. From the test results, it can be concluded that No-fines concrete has advantages of good workability, light weight and lower construction cost, even though it has lower strength and modulus of elasticity than normal conc:rt:te does.

Densification occurs by the inelastic flow of the matrix materials during the consolidation processes at high temperature for MMCs, and the results depend on many process conditions such as applied pressure, temperature and volume fraction of fiber and matrix materials. This is particularly important in titanium matrix composites since material failure may occur by either the applied conditions or microstructural parameters through the processes, and thus a generic model based on micro-mechanical approaches enabling the evolution of density over time to be predicted has been developed. The mode developed is then implemented into FEM so that practical process simulation has been carried out. Further the experimental investigation of the consolidation behavior of SiC/Ti-6Al-4V composites using vacuum hot pressing has been performed, and the results obtained are compared with the model predictions.

The objective of this study is to evaluate the mechanical properties of high-flowable retaining wall material (RWM) incorporated with ground granulated blast-furnace slag (SG) and steel fiber (SF) based on a comparison with those of ordinary portland cement (OPC). To produce the specimens of RWM, some chemical agents such as superplasticizer (SP), air-entrained agent (AEA) and viscosity modifying agent (VMA) are added in the fresh RWM. The compressive, split tensile and flexural strength measurements were performed on the hardened RWM specimens. Additionally, surface electric resistivity and absorption tests according to ASTM standards were carried out at predetermined periods after water curing. It was found that the mechanical properties of slag cement concrete (SGC) RWM mix are better than those ordinary portland cement concrete (OPC) RWM mix. The effect of SF is remarkable to improve the mechanical properties of RWM mixes. It is noted that the usage of SG shows a beneficial effect to resist water penetration as well as long-term strength development of RWM mixes.

액체 금속로(LMIR) 핵연료교환장치의 기본설계를 위해서는 여러 분야(예를 들면, 기구학, 동역 학, 재료역학 등)의 해석을 동시에 수행해야 한다. 그러나 이와 같은 해석들은 각각 별개로 연속적으로 수행되는 것이 아니라, 상호 유기적인 연관을 갖고 수행되어야 한다. 이와 같은 해석에 적합한 기법이 MDO 기법이다. 본 논문에서는 MDO기법에 의한 핵연료교환장치 구조해석의 한 단계로 핵연료교환장치의 기구 동역 학 해석을 수행하여 핵연료 교환장치 작동에 대한 기구운동학적 특성 및 동역학적 특성을 분석하였다. 분석결과 해석대상 핵연료교환장치는 예상한대로 원활하게 작동됨이 확인되었다. 아울러 이 분석 결과를 토대로 핵연료교환장치의 정적 휨 변형을 구하기 위한 재료역학해석에서 요구되는 정적구조를 결정하였다.

보강섬유란 지반구조물 중 토질재료 즉, 흙과 혼합되어 사용되는 토목용 합성섬유인 geofibers를 의미하며, 주로 흙의 응집력을 보강하는 기능을 가지고 있다. 일반적으로 토질재료는 비탄성 재료로써 약 5%정도의 변형에 파괴되는 역학적 성질을 가진 재료이며, 입자크기에 따라 그 적용범위가 매우 다양하다. 특히, 국내토양의 대부분을 차지하고있는 화강풍화토를 복토재로 사용할 경우 응집력이 약하여 지반구조물의 보강효과가 크게 떨어지는 문제점을 안고 있다. (중략)

다양한 분야에서 복합재료의 중요성이 강조되면서 각각의 재료 특성에 따른 물성을 미시역학적으로 구하는 것에 대한 다양한 방법이 제시되고 있다. 본 논문에서는 5개의 혼합 법칙을 선정하여 전산구조해석을 통한 유한요소해석을 비교 검증한다. 그 과정에서 산출된 결과를 통하여 복합재료의 탄성거동의 오차가 1% 미만인 것을 확인하였고, 프로그램의 해석이 적절하다는 것을 검증하였다. 또한 프로그램과 가장 유사한 혼합 법칙이 무엇인지 확인하고, 체적 비에 따른 오차를 비교하여 가장 적합한 체적 비를 선정하였다.

금속과 같은 균질한 재료의 균열파괴의 특성을 설명하기 위하여 도입된 파괴역학의 이론들은 1960년대 이후 콘크리트나 암석 등에 대하여 적용되기 시작하였다. 파괴인성계수(fracture toughness)는 균열의 성장에 대한 재료의 저항을 나타낸다. 그러나, 암석의 파괴역학적 특성은 암석이 갖는 불균질성이나 비등방성에 의하여 영향을 받는다. 즉, 암석의 파괴역학적 특성의 측정은 시험편의 크기나 초기균열의 길이, 시험편의 형상 등에 의하여 측정자료의 분산이 심하며 따라서 다른 기본 물성들의 경우에서와 마찬가지로 일정한 시험기준의 도입이 요구되었다. 1988년에 국제암반공학회(ISRM)에서 제시한 표준시험방법은 시험편의 제작이나 시험방법에 있어서 복잡한 과정을 요구하고 있다. 본 논문에서는 표준시험방법에서 사용되는 시험편의 형태에 비하여 비교적 간단한 시험방법들에 의하여 얻어진 파괴적인성계수들을 서로 비교하여 제시하고 시험편의 크기와 기타 시험조건에 따른 파괴인성계수 측정치의 변화를 나타내고 있다. 또한, 암석에 포함되어있는 자연균열들의 특성과 파괴역학실험 중 유발되는 인공균열들의 형태를 비교하여 실험실에서 얻은 파괴역학적 계수들의 현장적용에 대한 문제점들을 지적하고 있다.

The thermal and mechanical properties of fiber-reinforced cement-based composite for solar thermal energy storage were investigated in this paper. The effect of the addition of different cement-based materials to Ordinary Portland cement on the thermal and mechanical characteristics of fiber-reinforced composite was investigated. Experiments were performed to measure mechanical properties including compressive strength before and after thermal cycling and split tensile strength, and to measure thermal properties including thermal conductivity and specific heat. Test results showed that the residual compressive strength of mixtures with OPC and slag was greatest among cement-based composite. Thermal conductivity of mixtures including graphite was greater than that of any other mixtures, indicating favor of graphite for improving thermal transfer in terms of charging and discharging in thermal energy storage system. The addition of CSA or zirconium increased specific heat of fiber-reinforced cement-based composite. Test results of this study could be actually used for the design of thermal energy storage system in concentrating solar power plants.

This paper is aimed to evaluate the mechanical properties and durability of high-flowable retaining wall material (RWM) with different levels of steel fiber (SF) content. To produce the specimens of RWM, some chemical agents such as superplasticizer (SP), air-entrained agent (AEA) and viscosity modifying agent (VMA) were added in the fresh RWM. The compressive and split tensile strength measurements were performed on the hardened RWM specimens at the predetermined periods. Additionally, surface electric resistivity and absorption tests according to ASTM standards were carried out to examine mechanical properties of RWM mixes. The durable performances such as chloride ions penetrability and freezing-thawing resistance of RWM mixes were experimentally investigated. As resutls, it was found that the performance of RWM mix with SF were much better than that without SF, especially at the 2% addition of SF. Thus, it is noted that the proper addition of SF in the RWM mix may have a beneficial effect to improve mechanical properties and durability of RWM mixes.
