The Embedded Suction Anchor (ESA) is a type of permanent offshore foundation that is installed by a suction pile. To increase the loading capacity against pullout, three wings (vertical flanges) are attached along the circumference at 120 degrees apart. Analytical parametric study using the proposed analytical solution method has been conducted to identify the effects of several parameters that are thought to influence the behavior of ESAs. The analysis results show that the pullout capacity increases as the anchor depth and the soil strength increase, and decreases as the load inclination angle increases. The anchor having square projectional area and being pulled horizontally at the middle of its length provides the highest pullout capacity.

주변이 Kinney의 정의에 따른 부분 고정도를 가지고 지지된 직4각형 평판이 부분 분포하중을 받고 있을 때의 안정해석을 유한 요소법으로 수행하였다. 수치해석에서 고려한 변수는 평판의 변장비 (=λ)와 부분 분포하중 작용폭 (=γ) 및 부분 고정도 (=f) 값이다. 여기서 특히 f=0.0 은 주변이 단순지지를 표시하고 f=1.0은 고정지지를 뜻하는데 수치해석에서는 f=0.0, 0.2, …, 1.0으로 변화시켰다. 유한 요소법으로 산정한 판의 좌굴계수 변화는 각각의 변장비에 대하여 나머지 두 개의 매개변수를 변랑으로 하는 대수 함수식으로 표시하였다. 제안한 대수식으로 추정한 임계하중치와 유한 요소법으로 산정한 임계하중치 간의 상관계수는 모든 변장비에 대하여 거의 단위치 (ρ=1.0)에 가까웁다. 따라서 제안한 대수 함수식은 구조 설계자들의 판 설계 및 안정 검토시에 유익한 자료로 이용될 수 있다.

According to the available study and experimental data about the long term behavior of CFT(Concrete Filled Tube) columns, the creep and of concrete in CFT columns are smaller than those of RC columns because of the confinement effect of outer steel columns. In this study, the uncertainties associated with assumed values for concrete properties such as strength, creep coefficients, and service load have been considered and analyzed for the prediction of time-dependent column shortening of CFT column. The CFT column shortening analysis using Monte Carlo method is proposed and an of a 37 story tall building with CFT columns is studied for illustration. According to the results obtained by the probability analysis with multi parameters, the effect of variation coefficient for 3 parameters is investigated considering confidence interval.

For a shear-deformable beam-column element subjected io non-conservative forces, equations of motion and a finite element formulation are presented applying extended Hamilton's principle. The influence of non-conservative force's direction parameter, internal and external damping forces, and shear deformation and rotary inertia effects on divergence and flutter loads of Beck's columns are intensively investigated based on element stiffness, damping and mass matrixes derived for the non-conservative system.

A modified $C^{*}$ integral as load parameter in creep fracture is proposed considering the effect of crack growth. It is shown that the parameter does not depend on crack velocity. By performing experiment using STS 304 stainless steel at 600.deg.C the validity of the parameter is investigated. The results show that the parameter is a good measure as a load parameter in creep fracture and the rate of crack tip opening displacement can also be a creep load parameter for STS 304 at 600.deg.

The design of anchorage zone in a post-tensioned member has been started from the evaluation of the ultimate resisting capacity as well as the maximum bursting stress developed, and a lot of design codes including AASHTO and PTI describe their design equations to determine the bearing strength of concrete at the anchorage zone. However, these equations usually give conservative results because their derivation is based on the simple anchorage with a wide bearing plate in the surface without any additional consideration for the load transfer mechanism through transverse ribs on the anchorage. To assess the influence of geometric parameters related to the transverse ribs on the resisting capacity of anchorage block, experiments and analysis are conducted. After verifying the validity of numerical model conducted through correlation studies between experimental and analytical results, parametric studies with changes in the transverse ribs are followed and design recommendations for the anchorage block are suggested from the numerical results obtained.

In this study, the dynamic load transfer function, which is necessary for analyzing a pile installed by a vibro hammer, was determined by comparing the results of the analyses and instrumented tests. The static load transfer function was modeled by the Ramberg-Osgood model through an analytical method before determining the dynamic load transfer curve. The parameters of the Ramberg-Osgood model were correlated with the N value of the standard penetration test and average values of the correlation coefficient were 0.97 for the shaft load transfer and 0.98 for the base load transfer. The dynamic load transfer function was simulated using the modified Ramberg-Osgood model. The results showed that there were little differences in the characteristics of dynamic load transfer between the results of the measurement and prediction.

Rate of penetration(ROP) is one of the important variables for maximizing the drilling performance. In order to maximize drilling efficiency, it is necessary to increase the drilling speed, and real-time ROP prediction is important so that the driller can identify problems during drilling. The ROP has a high correlation with the drillstring rotational speed, weight on bit, and flow rate. In this paper, the ROP was predicted using a data-driven supervised learning model trained from the drilling efficiency parameters. As a result of comparison through the performance evaluation metrics of the regression model, the root mean square error(RMSE) of the RF model was 4.20 and the mean absolute percentage error(MAPE) was 9.08%, confirming the best predictive performance. The proposed method can be used as a base model for ROP prediction when constructing a real-time drilling operation guide system.

Unlike the vertical drilling in the directional drilling should be minimized torque and drag in the well trajectory that avoided problems such as drillstring transformation, casing wear and key-seating. These torque and drag magnitude is determined by variations such as the well trajectory geometry, drilling mud, drillstring type and kick-off point. Therefore, it is essential to consider these variations for designing directional well trajectory. In this study, it was selected well trajectory by the most common build-hold type well and calculated torque and drag on each section by Analytical friction model. Analysis indicates that torque and drag could be minimized by using high lubricity drilling mud, kick-off point appropriate according to the well geometry and possible minimize dogleg severity. The results of this study is useful to minimize torque and drag from directional well trajectory design.

In this paper, a modification coefficient for equivalent single degree of freedom (SDOF), considering the plasticity range of the member subjected to shock wave type of blast load, was developed. The modification coefficient for the equivalent SDOF was determined through comparison with the analysis of a multi-degree of freedom (MDOF) system. The parameters influencing the equivalent SDOF system analysis were chosen as the boundary conditions of the member and the ratio of the duration of blast load to the natural period of the member. The modification coefficient was calculated based on the elastic load-mass transformation factor. The modification coefficient curve was derived using an elliptical equation to ensure it exists between the upper and lower parameter bounds. Using the modification coefficient on examples with varying cross sections and boundary conditions reduced the SDOF analysis error rate from 15% to 3%. This study shows that using the modification coefficient significantly improves the accuracy of SDOF analysis. The modification coefficient proposed in this study can be used for blast analysis.
