본연구는 축방향 변형 구속이 고강도 콘크리트 휨부재의 휨 전단거동에 미치는 영향을 조사하기 위한 것으로, 수화열과 건조수축에 기인하는 축방향 변형과 재하에 의한 축방향 변형을 구속한 부재 및 무구속 부재에 대하여 휨파괴와 전단파괴 실험을 실시하였다. 타설 직후부터 축변형을 구속한 실험체의 재하시 강성은 재하전의 구속으로 발생한 관통균열의 영향을 받아 무구속 실험체의 강성보다 낮지만, 재하시의 축변형 구속에 따른 압축구속력의 상승으로 인하여 강성의 크기는 역전되었다 축변형이 완전히 구속된 휨부재의 휨강도는 무구속 부재보다 20%이상 상승하지만 변형능력은 감소하는 것으로 나타났으며, 재하전의 축변형 구속에 의한 관통균열(균열폭 0.1mm 미만)은 부재의 전단내력 및 전단균열 진전 형상에 영향을 미치지 않았다.

Soils around a pile are highly constrained when the vertical load is applied to the pile. However, the conventional direct shear test cannot evaluate the shear strength of the soils under the normal confinement condition. The goal of this study is to evaluate the shear behaviors according to the normal displacement confinement condition including free normal displacement (FND) and constrained normal displacement (CND) during direct shearing. Jumunjin sands were prepared at the different relative densities and loaded at the different normal stresses. The specimens were sheared according to the normal confinement conditions. Experimental results show that shear strengths obtained by the CND tests are higher than those obtained by the FND tests. In addition, for the constrained normal displacement condition, the increment of shear strength increases with the increase of relative density, while the increment of shear strength decreases with the initial normal stress. This study suggests that the effect of confinement condition on the shear strength should be considered when the stability of constrained soils is analyzed.

The original Mindlin-type degenerated shell element perform reasonably well for moderately thick shell structures. However, when full integration for analysis of thin shell is used to evaluate the stiffness matrix, the stiffness of shell element is often over-estimated due to shear or membrane locking phenomena. To correct this problem, the formulation of the new degenerated shell element is derived by the combination of two different techniques. The first type of elements(TypeⅠ) has used assumed shear strains in the natural coordinate system to overcome the shear locking problem, the reduced integration technique in in-plane strains(membrane strains) to avoid membrane locking behaviour. Another element(TypeⅡ) has applied the assumed strains to both of membrane strain and transverse shear strains. The improved degenerated shell element has been tested by several numerical problems of shell structures. Numerical results indicate that this shell element shows fast convergence and reliable solutions.

The shear stress characteristics of landslide materials can be affected by various factors. We examined the shear stress characteristics of two different soils using ring-shear apparatus, in which saturation-consolidation-shearing speed can be easily controlled. This paper presents (i) shear stress-time characteristics, (ii) shear stress depending on normal stress and shear speed and (iii) shear stress as a function of shearing speed. Materials used in this paper were the Nakdong River sand and muds taken from Jinhae coastal area in Korea. Samples were prepared in three types: Sand (upper)-Sand (lower), Clay (upper)-Clay (lower) and Sand (upper)-Clay (lower). The upper and lower indicate the samples placed in upper and lower ring shear boxes, respectively. For given normal stresses (50 and 100 kPa) and shearing speed (0.1 mm/sec), we performed ring shear tests. Then the failure lines were determined in the second test. Last, we determined the shear stress characteristics depending on different shearing speeds, such as 0.01, 0.1, 1, 10, 100 mm/sec. As a result, we found that shear stress characteristics are strongly dependent on above three factors. The shear stress of Sand (upper)-Clay (lower) is smaller than that of Sand (upper)-Sand (lower), but slightly larger than that of Clay (upper)-Clay (lower). The shear stress is also characterized by grain crushing and wetting process at slip surface.

According to the development of ultra-high performance concrete (UHPC), its mechanical performance have been known as superior than normal and/or high performance concrete. However, its construction and structural safety must have studied with revisions and supplements. In this study, tests have been performed on UHPC precast segment joint with different levels of joint types and lateral forces under direct shear. From the results of the experimental tests, it can be concluded that the properties of the referred joints are significant for the resistance of shear behavior, and the increase of lateral force in these joints may suggest as critical lateral stress on that behavior.

In order to characterize the shear strength of the frozen sand for foundation design in cold region and prediction of adfreeze bond strength, many researchers developed test techniques and carried out many tests to analyze shear strength properties of the frozen sand for half a century. However, many studies for shear strength properties of the frozen sand have been carried out with limited circumstances, even though shear strength of the froze sand can be affected by various influence factors such as soil type, temperature conditions, and magnitude of normal stress. In this study, direct shear test equipment was used to analyze the shear strength characteristics of the frozen sand. Direct shear test equipment was designed for cold weather, and the direct shear tests were carried out inside of large-scaled low temperature chamber. Three soil types-two uniform sands and one well graded soil were used to analyze the shear strength of the frozen sand with three different temperature conditions and three different vertical confining pressures. In this research, a series of direct shear tests for shear strength of the frozen sand have been conducted to demonstrate the efficiency of effectiveness of the test equipment and low temperature chamber. This research also showed that shear strength of the froze sand increased with decreasing temperature condition, but the influence of vertical confining pressure was insignificant to the shear strength of the frozen sand.

Researches on the steel-concrete composite girder filled with plain concrete have been being actively performed on the grounds that this type of girder has constructional, structural and aesthetical benefits. As a part of studies on the characteristics of inner shear connections in the concrete-filled steel-concrete composite girder with plain concrete, the confinement effect on the stiffness of inner shear connections was examined in this study. In the case of concrete-filled steel-concrete composite girder, it can be expected that the stiffness of shear connections may be increased in comparison with the case not confined. Therefore, the experimental studies were performed with the confinement effect as a parameter, and the results are discussed in this paper.

고강도 및 보통강도 콘크리트의 압축파괴 거동에 영향을 미치는 요소들 (재료의 강도, 시편의 세장비, 전단구속, 실험장치의 강성, 피드백 신호)에 관한 연구가 수행되었다. 피드백 신호로 자동 조절되는 유압 실험기계항에서 원주변형 피드백 신호를 사용하여 연화곡선을 구했다. 재하장치로부터의 단부 전단 구속을 줄이면 제한된 영역 안에서 재하방향 균형이 형성되고, 또한 연화곡선의 경사가 급해지고 파괴에너지도 작아진다. 이때 길이가 큰 시편에서 파괴에너지가 커지는 것은 안장과는 달리 단순균열이 형성되는 것이 아니고 , 파괴가 용적을 가진다는 것을 의미한다. 압축응력하의 국부 파괴는 재료특성이 아니므로, 단부 전단구속이 없더라도 재료적 특성으로서의 응력-변형도 곡선은 정하기 어렵다.

Unlike structures installed on land, the structures installed on the offshore ground must consider long-term cyclic loads such as wave loads, wind loads and tidal loads at sea. Therefore, it is important to analyze the behavior of the ground subjected to long-term cyclic loads in order to design a structure installed on the ocean ground. In this paper, cyclic simple shear tests were performed to analyze the ground behavior for long-term cyclic loads according to the confining pressure, and a three-dimensional design failure curve was prepared that can easily check the failure characteristics according to the confining pressure. As a result of the analysis, it was confirmed that the position of the design failure curve is different depending on the confining pressure even under the same conditions of the cyclic shear stress ratio and the average shear stress ratio, and the number of cyclic loads reaching failure is affected by the confining pressure. From the created 3-D design failure curve under different confining pressure, the tendency and approximate value of the design failure curve according to the confining pressure can be estimated.

본 논문에서는 반복하중이나 지진하중을 받는 지반-구조물 시스템의 설계에 필수적인 변수인 전단탄성계수와 감쇠비에 대한 연구를 국내에 존재하는 비점성토 지반에 대하여 수행하였다. 국내 퇴적토지반 및 풍화토지반에서 채취된 자연시료와 입도분포를 조정하여 제작한 시료를 포함하여 총 60개의 시료에 대하여 20kPa에서 500kPa의 구속응력 범위에서 공진주 시험을 수행하고, 이를 조립질 사질토, 실트 및 실트질 모래, 풍화토의 3개의 그룹으로 나누어 결과를 정리하였다. 저변형률 영역의 변형특성인 최대전단탄성계수와 최소감쇠비에 대하여 구속응력의 영향을 확인하였다. 최대전단탄성계수를 예측하는 경험식을 3개의 그룹별로 제안하였다. 최소감쇠비는 구속응력에 따른 분포영역을 제시하였다. 세립분이 적은 조립질 사질토의 경우, 비선형 변형특성이 구속응력의 영향을 뚜렷이 받고 있어 이를 주요한 변수로 고려하여 대표곡선과 분포영역을 제안하였다. 구속응력의 영향을 적게 받는 실트 및 실트질 모래와 풍화토는 구속응력에 관계없이 대표곡선과 분포영역을 제안하였다. 제안된 각 시료의 대표곡선과 기존의 Vucetic-Dobry와 Seed-Idriss가 제안한 곡선과 비교하였다. 본 논문의 연구결과는 국내지반의 비점성토 지반에 대한 지진해석이나 동하중을 받는 시스템의 해석시 유용하게 사용될 것으로 판단된다.
