In this paper, an improved four-node Reissner-Mindlin plate-bending element with enhanced assumed strain field is presented for the analysis of isotropic and laminated composite plates. To avoid the shear locking and spurious zero energy modes, the transverse shear behavior is improved by the addition of a new enhanced shear strain based on the incompatible displacement mode approach and bubble function. The "standard" enhanced strain fields (Andelfinger and Ramm, 1993) are also employed to improve the in-plane behaviors of the plate elements. The four-node quadrilateral element derived using the first-order shear deformation theory is designated as "14EASP". Several applications are investigated to assess the features and the performances of the proposed element. The results are compared with other finite element solutions and analytical solutions. Numerical examples show that the element is stable, invariant, passes the patch test, and yields good results especially in highly distorted regimes.

Strength of PC walls with diagonal reinforcements can be obtained by using the section analysis. Deformation of the diagonal reinforcements is related to that of flexural reinforcement and makes the another tensile strength on the PC wall. Another tensile strength due to diagonal reinforcements is assumed to be 1/3 point of the distance between the flexural reinforcements.

The method of utilizing the strain and vibration values of rails is primarily used to diagnose the condition of wheels and railroad facilities. The dynamic load is measured under the assumption that the strain of the rail and the load of the railroad vehicle are proportional. Wheel condition is measured under the assumption that the magnitude of the defect and the magnitude of the rail vibration are proportional. However, environmental factors affecting the strain and vibration of the rail such as vehicle speed, wheel load, climate, and track conditions are not reflected, many errors occur depending on the measurement conditions. In this study, the effect of track distortion, which is a major indicator of the track condition among the environmental factors that affect the strain and vibration of the rail, on the strain and vibration of the rail, was examined through dynamic simulation. As a measure to reduce the measurement deviation, the effect of securing additional measurement points was analyzed.

The failure behavior of RC structure was exceedingly affected by the size and the local strain distribution of the failure zone due to the strain localization behavior on the tension softening materials. However, it is very difficult to quantify and assess the local strain occurring in the failure zone by the conventional test method. In this study, image processing technology, which is available to measure the strain up to the complete failure of RC structures, was used to estimate the local strain distribution and the size of failure zone. In order to verify the reliability and validity for the image processing technology, the strain transition acquired by the image processing technology was compared with strain values measured by the concrete gauge on the uniaxial compressive specimens. Based on the verification of image processing technology for the uniaxial compressive specimens, the size and the local strain distribution of the failure zone of deep beam was measured using the image processing technology. With the results of test, the principal tensile/compressive strain contours were drawn. Using the strain contours, the size of the failure zone and the local strain distribution on the failure of the deep beam was evaluated. The results of strain contour showed that image processing technology is available to assess the failure behavior of deep beam and obtain the local strain values on the domain of the post-peak failure comparatively.

일반적으로 구조부재의 안전성 평가는 계측된 센서의 변형률로부터 부재의 최대응력 또는 부재력 수준을 결정하고 설계기준에 의한 부재의 허용응력 또는 설계 강도와의 비교에 의해서 이루어진다. 그러나 이러한 설계기준은 건물의 설계단계에서 미리 가정된 하중 및 부재의 강도에 대한 여러 확률분포 또는 안전율을 반영하여 작성된 것으로 실질적으로 센서로부터 측정한 데이터를 직접 설계기준에 반영하는 것은 합리적이지 못하다. 본 연구에서는 실제 센서로부터 측정되는 변형률을 이용하여 합리적으로 구조부재의 안전성 평가를 수행하기 위한 방법을 모색하고자 한다. 설계기준을 고려한 변형률 제한치, 저감계수가 도입되었으며 이에 추가적으로 센서와 관련한 계수를 도입하여 구조부재의 안전성 평가를 위한 방향을 제시한다.

A new quadrilateral plane stress element is developed for efficient and accurate analysis of thermal stress problems. It is convenient to use the same mesh and the same shape functions for thermal analysis and stress analysis. But, because of the inconsistency between deformation related strain field and thermal strain field, oscillatory responses and considerable errors in stresses are resulted in. To avoid undesired oscillations, strain approximation is enhanced by supplementing several assumed strain terms based on the variational principle. Thermal deformation is incorporated into the generalized mixed variational principle for displacement, strain and stress fields, and basic equations for the modified enhanced assumed strain method are derived. For the stress approximation of bilinear elements, the $5{\beta}$ version of Pian and Sumihara is adopted. The numerical results for several problems show that the present element behaves well and reduces oscillatory responses. it also results in almost the same magnitude of error as compared with the quadratic element.

A general composite section of precast and cast-in-place concrete with prestressed and nonprestressed reinforcements was analyzed to calculate residual stresses and loss of prestressing force caused by internal constraints of concrete long-term deformation. From the analytical results, equations to design additional prestressing force and to evaluate resistant moment of the composite section were proposed. The equations shows that the additional prestressing force can be over-estimated if the loss rate of the first prestressing force is over-estimated from the lumped sum of a design code. The analytical procedure with the proposed equations has been applied to a composite section using the AASHTO Type 5 girder. The loss rates of the additional prestressing force appling to the precast concrete girder was less than those appling to the composite girder. However, the resistant moment of the additional prestressing force on the composite girder was much larger than that on the precast concrete girder. The additional prestressing force appling to the composite section was very effective for strengthening of the prestressed concrete composite girder.

그래핀의 우수한 기계적 물성에 관한 연구가 보고된 이후 그래핀의 기계적 특성을 이용한 다양한 어플리케이션에 관한 연구가 진행되고 있다. 기계적 특성을 이용한 다양한 어플리케이션 중 가장 대표적인 것은 발생한 스트레인을 측정하는 스트레인 게이지일 것이다. 때문에 본 연구에서는 다양한 기계적 활용 방안 중 스트레인 게이지를 목표로 그래핀을 이용한 스트레인 게이지의 가능성에 관한 실험을 진행하였다. 먼저 그래핀 내에서의 Piezo-resistive 효과에 관한 기초 테스트를 진행을 통해 그래핀의 gauge factor 수치가 2.5가량이 나옴을 확인하였다. 이 때 사용된 그래핀의 경우 Ni 촉매층을 이용하여 CVD 장비를 이용하여 사용되었고 7%의 투과도를 보였다. 추가적으로 이 같은 그래핀의 Piezo-resistive 특성을 이용하여 우리는 두 종류의 변형률 센서를 제작하였다. 한 가지는 기존의 단일 게이지의 경우 미리 지정된 방향의 변형률 정도만을 측정할 수 있다는 단점을 극복하기 위한 rosette 형태의 스트레인 게이지를 제작함으로써 변형률 뿐만 아니라 표면에서 발생하는 주변형률의 방향을 측정할 수 있었다. 또한 제작된 스트레인 센서를 장갑위에 부착 함으로써 다가올 입는 형태의 전사소자에 응용이 가능한 모양의 변형률 센서 제작에 성공하였다.

To evaluate the safety of a beam structure, strains are measured as an indicator of structural states. However, unless strain sensors are installed exactly on where maximum or other representative strains occur, the techniques by which rational assessment through measured strains is accomplished are required. Thus, this study suggests a process to estimate strain distribution on the steel beam from discrete strains measured by sensors. In the presented technique, the targeted beam is regarded to be subjected to unknown loads so that applicability is enhanced. Final strain distribution is given as form of a function after regression analysis. To verify the performance of estimation, a bending test for steel beam on which distributed and concentrated loads simultaneously act is conducted. From the comparison between estimated and directly measured strains in the test, the curve of strain distribution and the strain at arbitrary location could be predicted within maximum relative error 3.32% and maximum absolute error of $2.32{\mu}{\varepsilon}$, respectively. Thus reliable and practical monitoring is expected to apply effectively for the steel beam structure.

본 논문에서는 비디오 제작 및 유통의 활성화에 따라 필요성이 높아지고 있는 장면 전환을 검출하는 방법을 제안한다. 유통 과정에서 해상도 변환, 자막 삽입, 압축, 영상 반전 등의 다양한 변형이 추가되더라도 동일하게 장면 전환을 검출해야 하므로 전처리 과정과 SIFT를 이용한 특징 추출, 변형을 고려한 매칭 방법을 이용하여 프레임 간의 매칭률을 계산한다. 또한 매칭률의 임계값을 기준으로 장면 전환 여부를 판단한다. 원본 비디오에서의 특징을 가지고 다양한 변형이 가해진 비디오에서의 특징과 매칭률을 계산하여 유효성을 판단한다.
