The objective of this study is to evaluate effects of honeycomb cell size for compressive behaviors of square sandwich composite tubes with woven fabric carbon/epoxy skin and Al honeycomb core. In order to achieve these goals, four different kinds of tubes were fabricated and compressed to 200mm~250mm under quasi-static load of 10mm/min. The Al honeycombs with cell size of 6.35mm and 9.53mm were used. The relationship of mean compressive load and cell size was evaluated. In addition, the effect of peel strength and equivalent elastic modulus in ribbon direction for the mean compressive load was investigated.

The distributions of fatigue life of concrete for various applied fatigue stress levels are investigated. The concrete beam specimens are tested in four-point flexural loading conditions. Three different levels of applied fatigue stresses are considered. They are 85%. 75%. 65%, respectively, of the static flexural strength of concrete. The present study indicates that the shapes of the probability distribution of fatigue lives are rather different for different levels of applied fatigue stress. This necessitates the consideration of the effects of applied fatigue stress levels on fatigue life distributions of concrete in order to conduct a realistic fatigue reliability analysis. The graphical method, the method of moments, and the method of maximum likelihood estimation are used to evaluate the distribution parameters of fatigue lives. It was found that the shape parameter of Weibull distribution for the fatigue life of concrete ranges from 2.0 to 4.0 according to the level of applied fatigue stress.

본 논문은 차분진화 알고리즘을 이용한 다중 손상된 RC 슬라브 교량에 대한 시스템 인식(System Identification)기법을 소개한다. 제안된 기법을 이용하여 이동하중에 의한 교량의 동적응답을 기반으로 손상유무, 위치, 크기가 추정된다. ABAQUS를 이용한 손상된 3차원 슬라브 모델을 실험대상으로 하여, 모델로부터 동적응답을 찾아내었다. 차분진화 알고리즘(Differential Evolutioinary algorithm)을 기반으로 동적응답과 Bi-variate Gaussian 함수로 강성저하된 2차원 유한요소 MZC모델을 이용하여 손상된 위치와 크기, 이동하중의 크기와 속도가 추정되었다. 차분진화 알고리즘을 이용한 RC교량의 손상위치와 이동하중에 대한 추정은 3%이내의 오차를 보였고, 이로부터 제안된 방법의 효율성과 정확성이 검증되었다.

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 presents a modified arc-length method for the nonlinear finite element analysis of a structure which is loaded in incremental and fixed forces, simultaneously. The main idea of the method is to separate the displacement term by the constant force from that by the incremental force. Presented method is applied to the nonlinear analysis of isotropic shell structures separately loaded by lateral pressure or compression, and shows the excellent agreement with previous results. As an illustrative example of the applicability of the present algorithm, a parametric study is performed on the nonlinear buckling analysis of composite cylindrical panels under the combined load of the incremented compression and the constant lateral pressure.

The fracture characteristics of concrete under various rates of loading are investigated. The static and dynamic fracture energies of concrete are determined and the size-dependency of fracture energy is clarified from the present study. To this end, a series of experiments were conducted. The maximum failure loads, fracture energies and nominal failure stresses were calculated from those test results. It is found that the fracture energies are increased with the increase of loading rate. The fracture energy values were also greatly influenced with the size of the specimen. The size-dependent prediction eguations for the static and dynamic fracture energies of concrete are proposed in the present study. The present paper provides useful data for the dynamic fracture analysis of concrete structures.

본 논문에서는 연약지반에 시공된 교대말뚝기초에 인접하여 성토하중이 재하될 때 발생하는 측방유동의 발생메커니즘을 규명하기 위해 3차원 유한요소해석을 수행하였다. 본 수치해석에서는 점성토 지반과 점성토-사질토 지반 그리고 사질토-점성토 지반에 선단지지된 강관말뚝에 대하여 성토하중 크기(q=20, 75, 100kPa)와 말뚝두부조건(변위구송, 회전구속) 그리고 말뚝중심간격(s=2.5d, 5.0d, 7.0d, 단독말뚝)에 따라 측방유동압의 분포형태와 크기를 분석하였다. 그 결과 측방유동압의 분포형태는 교대말뚝기초의 수평변위와 유사한 형태로 나타났으며 측방유동압의 크기는 배면 성토하중의 크기에 대한 비로써 결정할 수 있었다. 그리고 점성토 지반과 점성토-사질토 지반의 경우, 측방유동압의 분포형태와 크기는 말뚝두부조건에 가장 큰 영향을 받는 반면 사질토-점성토 지반의 경우에는 말뚝두부조건보다는 토층조건에 가장 큰 영향을 받는 것으로 분석되었다. 본 연구결과를 토대로 연약지반에 시공된 교대말뚝기초의 측방유동에 대한 설계 및 해석시 지침자료로서 측방유동압의 분포형태와 크기를 추천.제안한다.

A method of calculating natural frequencies corresponding to the modes of vibration of beams and tower structures with irregular cross sections and arbitrary boundary conditions was developed. The result is compared with that of the beam theory. Finite difference method is used for this purpose. The influence of the $D_{22}$ stiffness on the natural frequency is rigorously investigated. In this paper, the relation between the applied loading sizes and the natural frequency of vibration of some structural elements is presented. The results of application of this method to steel bridge and reinforced concrete slab bridge by using specially orthotropic plate theory is presented.

This study presents deflection analysis of long span structures for pedestrian bridge on crossroads. For long span structures, the size of structural members should be determined considering the esthetic view and vehicle below the structures. As a result, the slenderness ratio of members is increased and the structure may be suffered from significant deflection. The under-tensioned system on lower part of the structure, is applied in order to reduce the deflection and the size of members. In this regard, the under-tensioned system enables the load of upper parts to carη to the end of beam by means of tensional force in cable. In addition, effectiveness of under-tensioned system can be different depending on the size of cable, the number and spacing of posts. This study is performed with conforming the effect by analytical various parameters (size of cable, number and spacing of post). Dead and live loads is supposed to apply in the slab, and the analytical result by MIDAS program are presented addressing the effect of the under-tensioned system.

파괴안전설계를 하기 위하여 파괴역학원칙을 성공적으로 적용시키기 위해서는 주로 믿을 수 있는 크랙성장을 예측하는데 달려있다. 일정크기의 피로하중을 받는 구조물 구성요소의 경우 안전계수로 빈도수와 환경의 영향을 설명할 수 있다면 경험적인 데이터를 바탕으로 하여 그 피로거동은 상당히 쉽게 예상될 수 있다. 그러나 구조물 구성요소가 변화크기의 피로하중을 받는다면, 크랙성장예측을 위한 데이터를 마련하는데는 무엇보다도 그러한 변화크기의 피로하 중상태의 적용모델이 확실히 필요하며, 일어날 수 있는 여러 가지 상황들을 통합할 수 있는 모 델에 입각하여야 한다.
