This study was conducted to investigate the seismic behavior of steel member resisting frames considering the relative stiffness of the connection and beams. Six-story steel moment frames were designed to study the seismic behavior. The connections were classified into Double Web-Angle connections (DWAs), Top- and Seat-angles with double Web-angles (TWSs), FEMA-Test Summary No. 28, Specimen ID: UCSD-6 (SAC), and Fully Restrained (FR). The rotational stiffness of the semi-rigid connections was estimated using the Three-Parameter Power Model adopted by Chen and Kishi. The relative stiffness, which is the ratio of the rotational stiffness of the connections to the stiffness of the beams, was used. Push-over, repeated loading, and time history analysis were performed for all the frames. The seismic behavior of each frame was analyzed with the story drift, plastic hinge rotation, and hysteretic energy distribution.

Well designed group bolted connections can exhibit excellent ductile behavior through the bearing mechanism until the occurrence of shear rupture in the bolt or in the connecting plate. This excellent ductility can be utilized in favor of economical connection design. In this study, comprehensive tests on single-bolt bearing connections were conducted and analyzed considering bearing boundary conditions. The primary objective was to propose a generalized bearing strength and load-deformation relationship that can be used for designing group-bolted connections. To this end, new bearing strength formula, deformation limits as well as new load-deformation relationship were first proposed. Especially the proposed load-deformation relationship can reflect the stiffness, strength, and geometrical boundary conditions of the joint. The proposed formula and relationship are validated based on test results.

The objective of this study is to ascertain the applicability of T-stub connection for rigid connections. Tests and analysis are focused on the initial stiffness and their results are compared with the case of general rigid connections. Influential factors are investigated from the analysis results.

Integral and rigid frame bridges have advantages in bridge maintenance and structural efficiency by eliminating expansion joints and bridge supports. However, the detail of typical girder-abutment connection is rather complex and increases construction cost depending on construction detail. For the purpose of compensating disadvantages such as complexity and additional cost, a new type of bridge is proposed in this study, which improves the efficiency of construction by simplifying the construction detail of girder-abutment connection. The proposed bridge has the connection detail of steel girder and abutment integrated by prestressed PS bar installed in the connection. In this study, finite element analysis and fatigue load test are conducted to evaluate the fatigue capacity of the proposed girder-abutment connection. The results of the finite element analysis revealed that the possibility of the fatigue damage in the girder-abutment connection is very low. The results of the fatigue load test verified that the integrity of the girder and abutment connection is maintained after 2,000,000 cycles of fatigue loading.

This study propose cutting body portion-high strength mechanical fasteners to improve deformation capacity of High strength bolts, which are the mechanical fasteners used for End-plate connections. And, we report that loading test results of steel beam-to-column connection using high deformation capacity-high strength bolts in accordance with SAC2000 loading program. As a result, the initial stiffness and the maximum strength of the connection using high deformation capacity-high strength bolts, are approximately the same in comparison with those of the end-plate connection using the existing high strength bolts. But the deformation capacity of the connection is more than twice as much as those.

본 연구에서는 Ag anisotropic conductive adhesive(ACA)의 종류, 경화 조건 및 안테나 패턴의 재질에 따른 flip chip bonding된 RFID die의 접합부 신뢰성이 조사되었다. 접합강도 측정에 의하여 접합강도가 최적화되는 공정 시간을 결정할 수 있었으며, 그러한 최적의 공정조건에서는 paste-type Ag ink로 인쇄된 안테나 상에서의 RFID die의 접합강도가 Cu 재질 안테나에 비해 상대적으로 높게 측정됨을 알 수 있었다. RFID tag의 인식거리 측정 시험을 통하여 적절한 경화 조건이 적용된다면 안테나의 재질이 인식거리 변화에 가장 주요한 영향을 미치는 인자임을 알 수 있었다. 아울러 Cu 안테나 패턴은 RFID die의 접합 과정에서 곡률을 가지며 휘어지면서 인식거리와 관련된 long-tem reliability를 악화시킬 수 있음을 관찰할 수 있었다.
