In concrete structural design provisons, two methods are normally provided to control deflection; direct method and indirect method. It is more efficient to use the indirect deflection control by which the span/depth ratio is limited not to exceed an allowable deflection limit. Because actual deflections are affected by many causes, it is complicated to evaluate actual deflections. In this study, limit span/depth ratios are derived from the deflection calculated directly at the serviceability limit state in RC members. The deflection is obtained from using average curvature, which depends on materials model used. The main variables examined are tension stiffening effect, concrete strength, cross section size and compressive steel ratio. It could be appeared that more analytical consistency is secured to use the 2nd order form of tension stiffening effect. And the limit span/depth ratio is dependent on material strength, tensile and compressive steel ratio but it is independent on cross-section size.

This paper describes the specifications on balanced steel ratio and maximum reinforcement for the design of RC flexural members by the Korean Highway Bridge Design Code based on limit states design. The Korean Highway Bridge Design Code (Limit States Design) is not provide for the balanced steel ratio specification for the calculation of required steel area of RC flexural members design. The maximum steel area limited the depth of the neutral axis at the ultimate limit states after redistribution of the moment, and also recommended the maximum steel area should not exceed 4 percent of the cross sectional area. However, from the maximum neutral axis depth provisions should increase the cross section is calculated to be less the maximum reinforcement area, and according to the 4% of the cross sectional area of the concrete, the tensile strain of the reinforcement is calculated to be greater than double the yielding strain, so can not guarantee a ductile behavior. This study developed a balanced reinforcement ratio that is basis for the required reinforcement calculation for tension-controlled RC flexural members design in the ultimate limit states verification provisons and material properties and applied the ultimate strain of the concrete compressive strength with a simple formular to be applied to design practice induced. And assumed the minimum allowable tensile strain of reinforcement double the yielding strain, and applying correction coefficient up to the ratio of maximum neutral axis depth, proposed maximum steel ratio that can be applied irrespective of the reinforcement yield strength and concrete compressive strength.

In this study, an interactive analysis considering column-pile interaction is performed on the basis of an equivalent base spring model for supplementing virtual fixed point design of bent pile structures. Through this analytical method, the application of the minimum steel reinforcement ratio of the pile (0.4%) is analyzed by taking into account the major influencing parameters. Furthermore, the limit depth for steel reinforcement ratio is proposed through the relationships between column and pile conditions. To obtain the detailed information, it is found that an interactive analysis is intermediate in theoretical accuracy between the virtual fixed point model analysis and full-modeling analysis. Base on this study, it is also found that the maximum bending moment is located within cracking moment of the pile when material nonlinearity is considered. Therefore, the minimum steel reinforcement ratio is appropriately applicable for the optimal design of bent pile structures. Finally, the limit depth for steel reinforcement ratio ($L_{As=x%}$) is proposed by considering the field measured results. It is shown that the normalized limit depth ratio for steel reinforcement ratio ($L_{As=x%}/L_P$) decreases linearly as the length-diameter ratio of pile ($L_P/D_P$) increases, and then converges at a constant value.

When a structure which has relatively low load constructs on soft clay, the bearing capacity of the ground will be improved by sand overlying clay. In this condition, verifying the bearing capacity is difficult from the P.B.T etcetera in the in-situ. So, it is needed to estimate precise bearing capacity in the design process. In this study, 2-dimensional chamber tests and FEM analyses are conducted to evaluate behavior of bearing capacity for shallow foundations on a sand overlying clay. Because depth ratio H/B and bearing capacity ratio $q_c/q_s$ are selected as main factors, height of a sand, undrained shear strength of a clay and width of a loading are designated as variables. Results from chamber tests are very similar with those of FEM analyses. And it shows that punching shear mechanism is more suitable than the equation of Okamura et al.(1998). To make continual application of load spread mechanism, the equivalent load spread angle is proposed for H/B and $q_c/q_s$. Also, the linear regression equation of critical depth ratio Hf is suggested for $q_c/q_s$.

This paper proposes a novel deep learning-based method to upsample a depth map. Most conventional methods estimate high-resolution depth map by modifying pixel value of given depth map using high-resolution color image and low-resolution depth map. However, these methods cause under- or over-shooting problems that restrict performance improvement. To overcome these problems, the proposed method iteratively performs grid warping scheme which shifts pixel values to restore blurred image for estimating high-resolution depth map. Experimental results show that the proposed method improves both quantitative and visual quality compared to the existing method.

This study present the stressdistribution of circular column-box beam connection in steel piers. Experiments were carried out for hollow and concrete filled connections, depending on the joint angle. To determine vertical and shear stress distribution, this study examined the equivalent web depth dc' that is mainly used in existing design equation. Lidewise, as additional equivalent web depth was introduced. Stress values that were calculated using equivalent wev depth were also compared with the test stress value. Results showed that stresses of hollow and filled connections have great differences. However, dc' has a limitation for some joint angles. Likewise, stress of filled connection was less than that of the hollow connection. The test value of filled connection was also compared with design equations that were introduced from the hollow connection.

In this study, the infiltration quantity of fine-grained soil into coarse-grained soil or aggregate for methods to accelerate consolidation drainage is checked by laboratory tests under various conditions and those characteristics on infiltration are examined closely. Irrespectively of pressures to fine-grained soil corresponding to stresses in a soil mass or moisture contents of fine-grained soil, fine-grained soil does not infiltrate into standard sand and marine sand, so it is verified that drain-resistance into sand mass of drainage / pile does not occur entirely and its shear strength would increase highly by water compaction. It is known that the infiltration depth of fine-grained soil into aggregate increases according that those size is larger in case of aggregates and it increases according that the pressure or the moisture contents is higher in case of same size aggregate. It is thought that drain-resistance into aggregate mass of drainage / pile would occurs by infiltrated fine-grained soil in advance though the infiltration depth of fine-grained soi of lower moisture content than liquid limit into 13 mm aggregate is low quietly. So gravel drain method or gravel compaction pile method, etc. using aggregate of gravels or crushed stones, etc. larger than sand particle size should be not applied in very soft fine-grained soil mass of higher natural moisture contents than liquid limit, and it is thought that its applying is not nearly efficient also in soft fine-grained soil mass of lower natural moisture contents than liquid limit.

Depth maps have distance information of objects. They play an important role in organizing 3D information. Color and depth images are often simultaneously obtained. However, depth images have lower resolution than color images due to limitation in hardware technology. Therefore, it is useful to upsample depth maps to have the same resolution as color images. In this paper, we propose a novel method to upsample depth map by shifting the pixel position instead of compensating pixel value. This approach moves the position of the pixel around the edge to the center of the edge, and this process is carried out in several steps to restore blurred depth map. The experimental results show that the proposed method improves both quantitative and visual quality compared to the existing methods.

This paper deals with the influences on the wall movements and earth pressure distribution for strutted diaphragm wall of various design depth ration and pre-displacement at strutted point. The numerical method is adopted for the study. The conclusions derived from the study were summarized as followes: 1. The elasto-plastic depth ratio in the passive region is found to decrease as such parameters as wall stiffness, soil density and penetration depth ratio decrease. 2. Values of maxium bending moments of the walls decrease with the increase of soil density, and the influence to the wall stiffness increases in proportion to the penetration depth. 3. Maximum strut reaction is found to be inversely proportional to the soil density. 4. Pre-displacement at the point of strut installation must be brougt into consideration on account of its active influence to the deflection of wall bodies.

이광자흡수는 Χ$^{(3)}$ 의 허수부로 표현되는 3차 비선형 흡수 효과로, 이광자 흡수확률은 입사빛 세기의 제곱에 비례한다. 특수한 단량체 분자들은 이광자흡수를 통해 빛을 흡수하여 중합과정의 에너지원으로 사용한다. 이 때 에너지의 threshold가 있으므로 초점 부근에서만 반응이 일어나게 되어, 이광자흡수를 통한 광중합과정은 회절효율 한계를 벗어난 미세구조 제작에 응용된다. 또 긴 파장의 빛을 이용하므로 입사 빛이 시료에 깊이 침투하여 3차원 구조제작, 3차원 data 저장 등의 분야에서 높은 응용성을 지닌다. (중략)
