Marine TEMA heat exchanger is the equipment to transfer the heat energy through both fluids that are enclosed separately by applying conduction and convection phenomena for a large vessels, Especially for heat exchanger working under the high temperature and high pressure, the expansion ratio should be taken into account other than under the low temperature and low pressure. This study was tried to find out the ideal expansion ratio through analyzing the elasto-plastic stress behavior of deformation while tubes are expanded with the finite element methods.

In this study, the design method of the combined sheet pile was considered in the coastal landfill where sandy and clayey soils are mixed, and the behavior in excavation was analyzed. It was confirmed from the elasto-plastic analysis that the predicted behavior of the temporary facilities of earth retaining differs according to the type of the combined sheet pile method (Built up, Interlocking, Welding) and the analysis method (soldier pile method, continuous wall method). In the case of sheet pile member force, the results of the continuous wall analysis method predicted the most conservative results. When the stress ratio (calculation/allowance) of each member was analyzed based on the maximum member force of the combined sheet pile method, the maximum value was obtained for bending moment in the side pile and combined stress in the case of the strut. As a result of finite element analysis, the member force of the side pile was the largest in the short-term effective stress analysis condition, while the compressive force of the strut was large in the consolidation analysis. When comparing the results of the elasto-plastic analysis and the finite element analysis, the shear force of the side pile and the axial force of the strut were greatly evaluated in the elasto-plastic analysis, and the bending moment of the side pile was the largest in the short-term effective stress condition of the finite element analysis. In addition, the displacement of the side pile was predicted to be greater in the finite element analysis than in the elasto-plastic analysis.

This study is concerned with the application of new criterion for membrane/shell mixed element in the rigid-plastic finite element analysis and elastic-plastic finite element analysis. The membrane/shell mixed element can be selctively adapted to the pure stretching condition by using membrane or a shell element in the bending effect areas. Thus, membrane/shell mixed element requires a efficient criterion for a distinction between membrane and shell element. In the present study introduce the criterion using the angle of between two element and confirm a generality of criterion from appling the theory to a rigid-plastic and elastic-plastic problems.

In this paper, the modeling procedure of random field with an elasto-plastic finite element algorithm and probability of failure on closely-spaced tunnel were investigated. Local average subdivision (LAS) method which can generate discrete random variables fast and accurately as well as change the resolution in certain region was used. And correlated value allocating and weighted average method were suggested to implement geometrical characteristics of tunnel. After the probability of failure on the test problem was thoroughly investigated using random finite element method, the results were compared with the deterministic strength reduction factor method and single random variable method. Of particular importance in this work, is the conclusion that the probability of failure determined by simplified probabilistic analysis, in which spatial variability is ignored by assuming perfect correlation, can be estimated from the safety factor determined by strength reduction factor method. Also, single random variable method can lead to unconservative estimates of the probability of failure.

This paper presents sensitivity analysis results of strain on notches under cycling loading to 2-D finite element density considering plasticity. Cylindrical notched specimens having some stress concentrations were modeled with 2-D axisymmetrical finite element having various finite element densities. Elasto-plastic finite element analysis was performed for the various finite element models subjected to cycling loading considering plasticity. The finite element analysis results were compared to investigate sensitivity of the finite element analysis variables such as von-Mises effective stress, accumulated equivalent plastic strain, and equivalent plastic strain to 2-D finite element density. As a result of the comparison, it was found that the accumulated equivalent plastic strain is more sensitive than the others whereas the von-Mises effective stress is much less sensitive.

This paper presents a geometrically non-linear and elastoplastic F.E. formulation using a total Lagrangian approach for the two dimensional isoparametric curved beam elements. The beam element is derived by using plane stress elements. The basic element geometry is constructed using the coordinates of the nodes on the element center line and the nodal point normals. The element displacement field is described using two translations of the node on the center line and a rotation about the axes normal to the plane containing the center line of the element. The layered approach is used for the elastoplastic analysis of the plane framed structure with the arbitrary cross section. The iterative load or displacement incremental method for non-linear finite element analysis of the frame structure is used. Numerical examples are presented to demonstrate the behavior and the accuracy of the proposed beam element for geometric and elastoplastic non-linear applications. Comparisons made with present theory and other published data show that tilt' beam element products accurate results with good convergence characteristics.

The post-buckling behavior of slender members, such as the chord of truss structures generally implies extreme strength degradation. The buckling strength is usually determined as the performance of the compressed steel members, so it is important to understand the exact buckling behavior of a member in order to design the entire structure. A target analytical model is usually divided by beam or shell element when we simulate the buckling behavior of a compressed steel member such as atruss member. In this case, it is possible to accurately obtain the behavior, but such would be expensive and would require experience inanalysis even in monotonic loading. In this paper, we propose a consistent and convenient method to analyze the post-buckling behavior of elastoplastic compression members. The present methods are formulated to satisfy the second law of thermodynamics. Three numerical examples were tested to determine the validity of the proposed model in cyclic loading with comparable F.E.M results.

A roll forming process is developed for an automotive part of high strength steel. Forming rolls are designed through the plane strain elastic-plastic finite element analysis to estimate the springback. It is assumed that the process can be approximated as a series of multi-step bending processes. Then the 3D elastic-plastic finite element analysis with the solid element is carried out for the designed roll forming process. The prototype roll forming machine and the forming rolls are made and the experiments are carried out. The results of the analysis and the experiments are compared.

The linear analysis for the balance of linear momentum of a structure is relatively easy to perform, but the error becomes large when the structure experiences large deformation. Therefore, the material and geometric nonlinearity need to be considered for the precise calculations in that case. The plastic flow of a ductile steel-like metal mainly transforms its dissipated mechanical energy into heat, which transfers under the first and second law of thermodynamics. This heat increases the temperature of the material and the strength of the material decreases accordingly, which affects mechanical behavior of the given structure. This paper presents a finite-strain thermo-elasto-plastic steel model. This model can handle large deformation and thermal load simultaneously, which is common during earthquake periods. Two 3-dimensional finite element analyses verify this formulation.

다양한 신재생 에너지 발전 중에서 수력발전은 풍력발전과 더불어 탄소배출이 가장 적은 에너지 발전 중 하나이며, 정부의 "2050 탄소중립" 발표에 따라 근래 수력발전에 대한 관심이 증폭되고 있는 추세이다. 하지만 국내의 지리적 특성상 수력발전의 규모가 국외에 비해 소규모이며, 대규모 수력발전의 경우에도 설치가능지역이 고갈되어 다수의 소규모 수력 발전소 설치라는 방향성이 불가피한 현실이다. 이에 따라 본 연구에서는 유한요소법을 이용하여 소규모 수력발전에 가장 많이 사용되는 콘크리트 댐 형상에 대한 구조해석을 실시하고 정수압 하에서 각 콘크리트 댐의 변형 거동 및 안정성을 분석하였다.
