In the uniaxial compressive test of a single specimen of transversely isotropic rock, its 5 independent elastic constants can not be defined since maximum 4 independent strain measurements are available theoretically. In order to solve this problem, one equation proposed by Saint Venant in 19C and confirmed by Lekhnitskii through the test experiences has been used for long time. Accordign to authors' experiences, however, this equation turned out to give erroneous elastic constants in some cases. Three new equations are suggested and their compatibilities are discussed in this paper. As the results of the analyses of the models, Lekhnitskii's suggested equation is effective for the specimen with the high dip angle whereas it results in the large erred output for that with dip angle less than $25{\sim}30$. It was found that the effectivenesses of three suggested equations and their compatibilities are subject to the dip angle and not to the amounts of elastic constants. Guide map to the selection of the compatible one of those suggested equations is presented as a result of the study.

This paper presents the stress distribution of the damaged butt joint of steel plate using CFRP laminates when the flange in tension zone of steel box girder is welded by butt welding. When CFRP sheets are patched on tension flange of steel-box girder, the stress distribution of a vertical and normal direction on damaged welding part is shown as parameters such as a variation of the thickness of adhesive, the overlap length with steel, and the modulus of elasticity of CFRP sheets. For the study, we wrote the computer program using the EAS(Enhanced assumed strain) finite element method for plane strain that has a very fast convergency and exact stress for distorted shape.

In this paper, the time-domain finite element formulations for axisymmetric linear viscoelastic problems, especially for the viscoelastic hollow sphere and cylinder, under various boundary conditions are presented with the theoretical solutions of them obtained by using the elastic-viscoelastic correspondence principle. It is assumed that the viscoelastic material behaves like a standard linear solid in distortion and elastically in dilatation. Numerical examples are solved based on the spherically symmetric, axisymmetric and plane strain finite element models. Good agreements are obtained between numerical and theoretical solutions, which shows the validity and accuracy of the presented method.

Two kinds of 4-node plane stress/strain finite elements are presented in this work. They are derived from the modified Hellinger-Reissner variational principle so as to employ the internal incompatible displacement and independent stress fields, or the incompatible displacement and strain fields. The introduced incompatible functions are selected to satisfy the constant strain condition. The elements are evaluated on several problems of bending and material incompressibility with regular and distorted elements. The results show that the new elements perform excellently in the calculation of deformation and stresses.

This study deals with elasto-plasticity of granular micro-structures which recovers continuum elasto-plasticity in its counterpart. The theory is based on doublet mechanics that assumes particles of finite size and connecting linear springs, and it makes extensions to plasticity. The result shows that the micro model has one to one relationship with the continuum model in the simplest case. Micro-strain and micro-stress of two dimensional plane stress problem were calculated, which shows the behavior of the specimen and verifies the effectiveness of this model.

In this paper, the strain distribution of the bond layer has been compared with the experimental data and analyzed according to the different mesh refinements and element types. The mesh density was changed along the longitudinal direction of adherend, the longitudinal direction of overlapped region, the vertical direction of adherend, the vertical direction of adhesive and the width direction of the joint. In addition, the effect of the different types of element was evaluated using soild, shell and plane strain element. The geometric nonlinear analysis was performed to consider the large deformation of the joint. From the numerical result, at least 2 elements were needed to achieve a reliable result as the solid element used. In case of shell element, the peel strain at x/c=1 showed 22.8% error compared with the experiment but the shear strain showed a good agreement with the experiment within 1.67% error.

As a basic study for investigating the development of the stress-induced crack in Hoek-Brown rock, a homogenization technique of elastic cracks is proposed. The onset of crack is monitored by Hoek-Brown empirical criterion, while the orientation of the crack is determined by the critical plane approach. The concept of volume averaging in stress and strain component was invoked to homogenize the representative rock volume which consists of intact rock and cracks. The formulation results in the constitutive relations for the homogenized equivalent anisotropic material. The homogenization model was implemented in the standard FEM code COSMOSM. The numerical uniaxial tests were performed under plane strain condition to check the validity of the propose numerical model. The effect of friction between the loading plate and the rock sample on the mode of deformation and fracturing was examined by assuming two different contact conditions. The numerical simulation revealed that the homogenized model is able to capture the salient features of deformation and fracturing which are observed commonly in the uniaxial compression test.

In this paper, a 3D shell-spring model that can perform time history analysis of buried pipelines is used to evaluate the effect of the incident direction of the earthquake motion. When applying harmonic motions, it is shown that the period of vibration has pronounced influence on the response of buried pipelines. With decrease in the period, the curvature of the pipeline and corresponding response are shown to increase. To evaluate the effect of the incident angle, the motions are applied in the direction of the pipleline, horizontal, and vertical planes. When the motion is applied parallel to the direction of the pipeline, it only induces bending strains and therefore, the response is the lowest. Under motions subjected in horizontal and vertical planes at an angle of $45^{\circ}$ from the longitudinal axis of the buried pipeline, the axial deformation is shown to contribute greatly to the response of the pipelines. When imposing two-components simultaneously, the calculated response is similar to the case where only single-component is imposed. It is because one component only induces bending strain, resulting in very small increase in the response. The trend of the response is shown to be quite similar for recorded motions. Therefore, it is concluded that use of a single-component is sufficient for estimation of the longitudinal response of buried pipelines.
