The structural strength tests are usually performed to evaluate the structural strength and to verify the structural design and analysis of the vehicle structures. In this paper, the development of a compressed loading type apparatus to load distributed force over the surface of vehicle structure subjected to external loads was described. This apparatus is for structural materials which are easily to fail because of concentrated stresses. This apparatus can apply loads to specimens without any damage on the test specimen's surfaces by using flexible membrane and can be applicable to several kinds of surface profile of structures. The structural strength tests for the flat structure and curved structure with this apparatus were successfully performed, and the test results showed that this type of loading apparatus can be adequate to verify the structural integrity of the fragile structures.

Some methods of calculation of test load value from design load data were investigated which will be applied at strap installed full-scale airframe of composite aircraft. These methods were applied to left wing of KC-100 composite aircraft and the calculated test load values were compared with each others. Generally since test load values are differently calculated according to each aircraft type and position of straps, all calculation methods mentioned at this study need to be applied and compared to each aircraft. Finally the most appropriate method needs to be selected.

This paper describes the structural strength test technique and the results for cylindrical supersonic vehicle subjected to both aerodynamic load and thermal load. The special positioning system using spring links was designed to float, support and restrain the test airframe during the test and the down-time. The hydraulic system and the electric heating system were utilized to apply the aerodynamic load and the thermal load to the test airframe together. Particularly, several hundreds of infrared quartz lamps were used for the heating system, and the thermal test conditions were successfully simulated. The test results showed that this kind of high temperature test is adequate to verify the structure integrity and produce useful engineering data which is necessary for the possible structural modification under thermal environments.

본 논문에서는 유체-구조 상호작용해석의 일종의 3차원 접수구조물의 진동해석을 효과적으로 수행하기 위한 해석방법을 제시하기 위하여 동적재해석기법을 검토하였다. 접수구조물의 유한구조 상호작용해석 결과는 구조진동의 관심 주파수역에서는 3차원 연성 부가수질량으로 표현되는 관성력으로 나타난다. 따라서 구조질량행렬에 부가수질량 행렬이 더해져서 전체 관성력으로 표현된다. 이 부가수질량을 추가질량으로 보고 재해석기법을 응용하는 방법을 수치실험을 통해 검증하였다. 이 때 재해석기법이 갖추어야 할 조건은 원구조의 질량과 거의 같은 정도의 질량이 추가되고 또한 완전 연성질량이 추가된 경우에도 정확한 해를 주어야 한다는 것이다. 이를 검증하기 위해 직접재해석기법과 섭동법을 이용한 재해석기법으로 4질량 스프링지지구조에 대한 해석을 수행한 결과 직접재해석기법의 응용이 적합함을 쉽게 입증할 수 있었다. 접수구조물의 예로는 3차원 잠수주상체에 대해 접수진동해석을 수행하였으며 그 결과 선체진동해석에 전통적으로 이용되고 있는 2차원 부가수질량과 3차원 수정계수를 사용한 기준차수법에서는 수지모드와 수평-비틔 연성모드와 같이 서로 독립적인 모드에 대해서는 따로 진동해석을 수행해 주어야 하는 단점이 발견되었다. 이 단점을 보완한 각 모드의 3차원 수정계수행렬을 이용한 재해석기법을 도입하여 모드에 상관없이 동시에 해를 구할 수 있었다. 그러나, 이 방법은 3차원 수정계수가 구해져 있는 경우에 한해서만 적용가능하며 실제 선체진동의 경우에는 10Hz 미만의 저차 주선체 진동에 한해서만 적용가능한 방법이다. 고차의 진도옴드에는 3차원 수정계수를 구할 수 없기 때문에 유체-구조 상호작용 해석결과로부터 얻은 3차원 연성 부가수질량을 이용하게 되며 이 때 이 행렬이 접수구조 표면의 전 자유도와 연성되어 있기 때문에 방대한 방정식을 푸어야 하지만 직접재해석기법을 적용함으로써 정확한 해를 구할 수 있었다. 또한 3차원 부가수질량을 이용한 직접재해석기법은 종래의 2차원 부가수질량과 3차원 수정계수를 이용한 방법에 비해 해석시간 면에서도 전혀 불리한 점이 없는 경제적 방법임이 밝혀졌다. 앞으로 Slamming 혹은 수중폭파 등의 충격하중에 의한 천이 구조응답 해석을 위한 효과적인 방법에 대해서도 연구결과를 발표할 계획이다.

A geometric non-linear finite element formulation of spatial ocean cable under currents is presented using multiple noded curved cable elements. Tangent stiffness and mass matrices for the isoparametric cable ele¬ment are derived and the initial equilibrium state of ocean cable subjected to self-weights, buoyancy, and current as well as support motions is determined using the load incremental method. Free vibration analysis of ocean cables is performed based on the initial equilibrium configuration. Numerical examples are presented and discussed in order to demonstrate the feasibility of the present finite element method and investigate dynamic characteristics of ocean cables.

A modified mixed mode bending test was performed to investigate the mixed mode delamination for carbon/epoxy composite material. Various mixed mode ratios could be produced by changing the applied load position on the loading lever and the bending load position on the specimen. The modified mixed mode bending test was analyzed to obtain strain energy release rates using beam theory, compliance method and finite element method, This results were in good agreement with the experimental result, which confirmed the validity of this test.

The modified arc-length algorithms for the automatic incremental solution of nonlinear finite element equations proposed by Riks are presented, which comprise the cylindrical arc-length method and the normal arc-length method. These methods are developed to trace the nonlinear path of large displacement problems such as a pre and post bucking/collapse response of general structures. These methods are applied to analyse the nonlinear behavior of arch and shell problems in parallel with the standard and modified Newton-Raphson method.

The CWR(Continuous Welded Rail) on a bridge shows complex structural behavior compared to those on the roadbed. The influence factors on the track-bridge interaction are the variation of temperature and vehicle load. The analysis methods for track-bridge interaction, material property, modeling method, loads and combination method are indicated in the domestic railway design principle, KR C-08080. The vehicle load in KR C-08080 was changed in 2014. In this study, to evaluate the effect of the changed vehicle load on the track-bridge interaction, the track-bridge interaction analyses were performed for 22 bridges by using finite element method.

Long-rails in railways and high-speed railway are subjected to additional stresses resulted from the displacements inconsistence between upper structures, and this phenomenon is more remarkable in continuous bridges than in simple bridges. For the sake of safety, railways have to guarantee trains to stop safely without derailment even in the event of earthquake. The influences of acceleration, braking, and temperature were analyzed by static nonlinear method. But earthquake loads that require dynamic nonlinear analysis are not considered in these methods. Because linear relation between relative displacements of decks and rail stresses is not guaranteed at the nonlinear systems such as long rails on the bridges, it is required compute to rail stresses considering both braking and earthquake load by nonlinear dynamic analysis method. In this study, dynamic analysis method with material non-linearity for rails on continuous bridges according to the Taiwan High Speed Railway(THSR) Design Specification volume 9 was developed. And additional stresses and displacements of long rails for acceleration, braking, and earthquake loads were analyzed by this method.
