The model of load-strain relations for CFT stub columns subjected to centrally compressive axial load is shown in this paper. The modified model of concrete and steel is obtained by using the experimental data and the formulas of that is based on the foreign researcher's result. The purpose of this paper is to suggest the basic data for evaluating the behavior of CFT stub columns to be variable to the strength of concrete and steel.

A procedure to determine the axle load limits of asphalt concrete pavements are proposed in this study. Axle load limits are determined by calculating maximum tensile strains at the bottom of the asphalt stabilized base layer and maximum vertical strains at the top of the subgrade. In order to investigate the efficiency of axle configuration, calculated influence line of wheel load on domestic expressway pavement system is used. Limiting strains are selected through the analysis of conventional failure criteria. From the analysis of axle load limits about axle composition(single-axle, tandem-axle, tridem-axle), it is found that the axle load limits of tandem-axle and tridem-axle can be calculated by muitipling the axle load limits of single-axle by axle numbers and that axle load limits are closely related to the thickness of each layer of pavement structure. It is also found that the axle load limits by tensile strains are more critical than those by vertical strains on asphalt concrete pavement models of YOUNG-DONG, KYONG-IN and KYONG-BU expressways.

Concrete filled steel tube and concrete encased steel tube columns are expected to have confined effects of concrete by steel and reinforced effects of local buckling by concrete. On the basis of confined state concrete models of previous researches, stress-strain and load-displacement relations of RC, CFT and CET columns are analyzed by steel ratio. After comparing analysis results with experimental results, Modified stress-strain relations are derived through evaluation the influence upon confined effects of concrete in each cases. Also, the modified stress-strain models are carried out to be compared with specified strength of various countries.

Concrete-filled steel tube columns are expected to have confined effects of the steel on the concrete and reinforced local buckling effects of the concrete. After comparing the results of existing studies with the experimental results from this study, the stress-strain relations were modified by evaluating the load-displacement with consideration of the confined effects. The effects of the parameters on the load-displacement and moment-curvature relationship according to the sectional and material properties were analyzed.

This study was carried out to select proper loading speed for deformation strength ($S_D$) of asphalt mixtures. Kim test using loading head of diameter(40mm) with radius(10mm) was conducted to measure $S_D$ in different loading speed (10mm/min, 30mm/min, 50mm/min, 70mm/min) and wheel tracking test was also conducted. The regression analyses between the So values and WT results were carried out by loading speeds. Higher $S_D$ was observed as increasing loading speed. This means that loading speed is a high influencing factor on $S_D$. The loading speed of 30mm/min was found as an optimum for better correlation with WT results than any other speeds from the regression analysis between $S_D$ and wheel tracking test results. $S_D$ value measured at other loading speed than 30mm/min has to apply the conversion coefficients.

It is very important that predict the inelastic seismic behavior exactly for seismic performance evaluation of a building in the performance based seismic design. But, it is difficulty that predict the building behavior of actual and exact in simplified load-deformation relation of structural material and members. In this study, system ductility and story ductility capacity of building structure used to the Backbone hinge Model are estimated and compared considering the characteristics of load-deformation relation of structural material and members. Analyses results, bilinear hinge model has lower system ductility and story ductility demands than those of backbone hinge model.

This paper describes the extension of the numerical model, which was developed to simulate the nonlinear behavior of reinforced concrete (RC) structures subjected to monotonic in plane shear and introduced in the companion paper, to simulate effectively the behavior of RE structures under cyclic loadings. While maintaining all the basic assumptions adopted in defining the constitutive relations of concrete under monotonic loadings, a hysteretic stress strain relation of concrete, which across the tension compression region, is defined. In addition, unlike previous simplified stress strain relations, curved unloading and reloading branches inferred from the stress strain relation of steel considering the Bauschinger effect we used. The modifications of the stress strain relation of steel are also introduced to reflect pinching effect depending on the shear span ratio and an average stress distribution in a cracked RC element. Finally, correlation studies between analytical results and experimental studies are conducted to establish the validity of the proposed model.

This paper is to study elasto-plastic behavior of shear deformed braced frames. Two types of frames are considered , X-type and K-type. The slenderness ratio has been used in the parametric study. The stress-strain curve is assumed tri-linear model, and considered the strain hardening range. The finite difference method is used to solve the load-displacement relationship of the braced frames. For the elastic slope and maximum load, experimental results are compared with theoretical results and its difference remains less than 10%. Therefore suggested method in this paper is reasonable.

최근 나노기술의 발달과 더불어 나노재료에 대한 특성평가 요구가 높아지고 있고, 따라서 나노스케일에서 재료의 기계적 거동을 분석할 수 있는 나노인덴테이션 기법이 심도있게 연구되고 있다. 본 연구에서는 나노인덴테이션, 주사탐침현미경(SPM), 투과전자현미경(TEM) 기법을 이용하여 여러가지 재료의 탄성 소성 변형 거동과 팝인/괍아웃 현상을 조사하고 해석하였다. 나노인덴테이션 기법으로는 50 마이크로뉴턴 (5 mg) 이하의 매우 작은 하중 하에서는 접촉 응력조건이라도 인장시험에서 관찰되는 영구변형이 제로인 완전탄성 변형 거동을 관찰할 수 있었다. 또한, 50-250 마이크로 뉴턴의 하중 범위에서 재료는 탄성변형 이후에 갑작스런 항복거동과 더불어 수십-수백 나노미터를 미끌어지듯 변형하는 팝인(pop-in), 또는 탈선(excursion) 현상을 관찰할 수 있었다. 이 현상은 하중을 가하는 동안에 여러 번 발생하였으며 재료의 표면상태와 전위밀도와 밀접한 상관관계를 보였다. 반복 압입 시험에서는 전형적인 가공경화 현상으로 항복점이 높아지고 새로운 항복점 이후에야 다시 팝인 발생함을 보였다. 한편, 하중을 가할 때 발생하는 팝인과는 달리 하중을 제거할 때 급격히 회복하는 팝아웃 현상 또한 관찰되었다.

Experimental and analytical studies are performed on the mechanical behavior of concrete-filled tubular(CFT) truss girders for different f/L ratios. Bending tests are conducted on two CFT truss girder specimens to determine fundamental structural characteristics such as the strength and deformation properties. Nonlinear material models for CFT members subjected to an axial compressive force are compared in this paper by using the nonlinear finite element program, ABAQUS. Previous researchers have proposed several nonlinear stress-strain models of confined concrete. In this study, the nonlinear analyses are performed applying several stress-strain models for confined concrete proposed by Mander, Sakino, Han, Susantha and Ellobody, and the results are compared with the experimental results in terms of load-deflection and load-strain relationships. Based on the comparisons of the load-deflection relationships, the models proposed by Mander and Susantha provide a maximum load about 12.0~13.8% higher and that by Sakino gives a maximum load about 7.6% higher than the experimental results. The models proposed by Han and Ellobody give a maximum load only about 0.2~1.2% higher than the test results, showing the best agreement among the proposed stress-strain models. However, the load-strain relations predicted by the existing models generally provide conservative results exhibiting larger strains than the experimental data.
