An optimization Program is developed to produce new topologies of plane structures under multiload case. A four-node finite element is used in the response analysis to reduce the computation time and to ultimately achieve practical topology optimization. The bilinear finite element is prone to produce chequer-boarding phenomenon and a simple filtering process is therefore adopted. An artificial material model is employed to represent the structural material and the resizing algorithm based on the optimality criteria is adopted to update the material density parameter during optimization process. With newly developed optimization program, the comparison study has been made between single and multiload cases and its results are described in this paper. From numerical results, it appears that multiload case should be considered to achieve the practical topology optimization.

자동수문이란 설정된 관리수위 이하에서는 수문이 개방되지 않고, 유량이 증가하여 관리수위 이상이 되면 수문이 개방되어 관리수위까지 방류하게 되면 다시 수문이 닫히게 되어 자동으로 관리수위를 유지한다는 것을 의미한다. 이러한 연직 자동수문의 방류특성이 수동식 연직수문과 다른 점은 유량에 따라서 수문 개방고의 증감과 수문개폐가 자동으로 이루어진다는 것이다. 따라서 자동수문의 운영 중 수문개방고의 거동과 자동개폐 시점을 예측하는 것은 정밀한 수문설계를 위해 매우 중요하다. 수문 개방 시 흐름이 정지되어있다고 가정하면, 정수압 상태의 부력이론에 의한 부력수문의 개방고는 어렵지 않게 계산할 수 있다. 그러나, 흐름이 정지되어 있다가 수문의 하단으로 방류가 시작되면 수문 선단을 포함한 주변에 압력 차이로 인해 동수압 하중이 발생하게 되어 수문에 진동을 유발하고, 수문개방을 억제하는 힘이 발생하여 수문 운영에 큰 영향을 미친다. 본 연구에서는 부력식 수문의 모형실험을 통하여 정수압 상태의 부력이론에 의한 수문 개방율과 측정에 의한 수문 개방율을 비교하였으며, 압력계수를 이용하여 이론과 측정 수문 개방고의 차이는 동적하중에 의한 효과임을 확인하였다. 모형실험에서 측정된 자료와 수치모형 ANSYS - Fluent의 사용성을 검증하였고, 부력식 수문의 형상에 따른 동적하중을 분석하였다. 수문 형상비는 0.24~1.09로 설정하였고, 분석결과 부력식 수문은 수문 개방율이 커짐에 따라 압력계수는 감소하는 경향을 보였으며, 동적하중은 증가하는 경향을 보였다. 또한, 부력식 수문의 형상비에 따라서는 형상비가 증가함에 따라 동적하중이 감소하는 관계를 확인하였다.

In order to find out the load bearing behavior of sand and clay which sustain three types of shallow footing, finite element analyses were performed. Failure zone of sand which sustain strip footing was affected by relative density of sand whereas, failure zone of clay was not affected by soil strength and it was similar to the failure zone which is considered in theory. Considering the shape of load-settlement curves obtained by numerical analyses, punching shear failure can be seen in loose sand and ultimate bearing load can not be seen in dense sand whereas, yielding point can be seen in clay. Ultimate bearing loads for sand predicted by theory were greater than those obtained by numerical analyses and ultimate bearing loads for clay predicted by theory were similar to those of numerical analyses. Ultimate bearing loads determined by 1 inch settlement criteria were slightly less than those of numerical analyses.

The dynamic loads and load-point displacements of concrete three-point bend (TPB) specimens had been measured. The average crack velocities measured with strain gages were 0.16 ㎜/sec ∼ 66 m/sec. The fracture energy for crack extension was determined from the difference of the kinetic energy for the load-point velocity and the strain energy without permanent deformation from the measure external work. For all crack velocities, there were micro-cracking for 23 ㎜ crack extension, stable cracking for 61 ㎜ crack extension at the maximum strain energy, and then unstable cracking. The unstable crack extension was arrested at 80 ㎜ crack extension except the tests of 66 m/sec crack velocity. The tests less than 13 ㎜/sec crack velocity and faster than 1.9 m/sec showed static and dynamic fracture behaviors, respectively. In spite of much difference of the load and load-point displacement relations for the crack velocities, the crack velocities of dynamic tests did not affect on fracture energy rate during the stable crack extension due to the reciprocal action of kinetic force, crack extension and strain energy. During stable crack extension, the maximum fracture resistances of the dynamic tests was 147％ larger than that of the static tests.

The inside contact characteristics in abrasive belt drives were investigated analytically and experimentally for (1) driver pulley contact wheel and (2) driven pulley contact wheel. The concentrated contact forces in the grinding zone divided the entire belt-pulley contact are by three distinct areas and the tangential friction forces in the active areas caused the normal forces to change, which resulted in the different belt force distribution compared with those of the ordinary flat belt drives. The experimental results for the normal pressure (belt tension) distribution were in good agreement with the theoretical results.

In the stress analysis of plate, Classical plate theories are generally used. But, in applying these theories the stresses underneath the concentrated load point cannot be analyzed because the solution of stress fails to converge. In this paper, therefore, an attempt is made to analyze the stresses directly underneath the concentrated load point for a supported square plate by using the three dimensional theory of elasticity and the potential theory of displacement on the supposition that uniformly distributed load acts on the central part of it. In order to clarify the validity of the theoretical analysis, experiments for strain are carride out with a square plate. It is shown that these theoretical results are in close agreement with experimental results. Specially, this analysis is in a good agreement with actual phenomenon in case of the thick plate.

Modeling of damage initiation in singly oriented ply (SOP) Fiber Metal Laminate (FML) under concentrated loading conditions was studied. The finite element method (FEM) base on the first order shear deformation theory is used for th\ulcorner modeling of damage initiation in SOP FML. The failure indices (FI) of the fiber prepreg and the metal laminate were calculated by using the Tasi-Hill failure criterion and the Miser yield criterion, respectively. To verify the present method, the failure analysis was conducted under uniaxial loading and cylindrical bending, then the analysis under concentrated load was conducted. The results show that the analysis is reasonable. An indentation test was conducted to compare a damage initiation load with a calculated FI. The test was conducted under two side clamped conditions to study the fiber orientation effect. Indentation curve was fitted using the Hertz equation and a damage initiation load is defined that the point which deviate the fitted curve from the real indentation curve. The damage initiation loads were obtained under various fiber orientations and compared with calculated FIs. The experiment was well matched with calculated FI. This results shows that the present method is suitable for the damage initiation modeling of SOP FML.

In this study, the hub vibration load characteristic is evaluated for a rotor in high advance ratio conditions while investigating blade loads through the structural load prediction and harmonic analysis. Numerical studies are performed to validate the wind tunnel test data performed in NASA as the rotor advance ratios are varied from 0.40 to 0.71. A good correlation is obtained for rotor performance calculation at the range of advance ratios considered. It is observed that the hub vibration loads remain almost unchanged when the advance ratios are higher than 0.5, even though the amplitudes of blade structural loads become larger with increasing advance ratios. A harmonic analysis on blade moments is confirmed that the dominant structural mode is 3/rev component for flap bending moments and 4/rev for lag bending moments. The reason is due to the tendency of the second flap and lag mode frequencies which approach 3/rev and 4/rev, respectively, as the advance ratios are increased.

Despite a number of advantages of reinforced earth walls over conventional concrete retaining walls, there exit concerns over long-term residual deformation when they are subjected to repeated and/or cyclic loads, especially when used as part of permanent structures. In view of these concerns, in this paper time-dependant deformation characteristics of geosynthetic reinforced modular block walls under sustained anuor repeated loads were investigated using reduced-scale model tests. The results indicated that a sustained or repeated load can yield appreciable magnitude of residual deformation, and that the residual deformations are influenced not only by the loading characteristics but by the mechanical properties of geogrid. It is also found that the preloading technique can be effectively used in controlling residual deformations of reinforced soils subjected to sustained and/or repeated loads.
