Two kinds of failure model, that is, the Gurson model and a shear failure model were used for the finite element analyses of simple and notch tensile specimens and axial compression of a fracture tube with initial saw-cuts. The parameter values for the shear failure model were determined by a combined experimental and numerical analysis of the notch tensile specimens. After fitting the numerical parameters such as the yielding stress and the fracture shear strains, the Gurson model and the shear failure model were applied to the analysis of the fracture tube. Although the Gurson model and the shear failure model showed similar fracture behavior for the case of the tensile specimens, the respective results were different in the axial force and the crack growth rate of the fracture tube. That is, the shear failure model required more axial force to make the cracks propagate along the tube than the Gurson model. These are believed to show the lack of damage evolution process of the shear failure model. To decide which model is better in the tube analysis, experimental verification will be necessary.

Properties of modified rice starches prepared in drum drying and extrusion were evaluated to use for effective utilization. Blue value was the lowest (p<0.05) for waxy rice starch and L value was decreased after modification of starches. Water solubility index was the highest for modified starches prepared in extrusion, while water absorption index was the highest for modified starches prepared in drum drying. Cold-Water-Solubility was the highest (p<0.05) for modified rice starch prepared in drum drying (RD). Consistency index of RD was drastically increased as shear rate increased and yield stress was the highest for RD. Results of Gel Permeation Chromatography showed that starch components were broken down into lower molecular weight materials and amylose are degraded by modification. Changes in the X-ray diffrectometry pattern indicated the transformation of granule into an amorphous state during modification and illustrated V-type.

Eight small scale circular reinforced concrete columns (4.5 aspect ratio) were tested under cyclic lateral load with constant axial load. The selected test variables are longitudinal steel ratio (2.017%, 3.161%), transverse steel ratio, and axial load ratio (0, 0.07, 0.15). Volumetric ratio of spirals of all the columns is 0.335~0.894% in the plastic hinge region. It corresponds to 39.7~122.3% of the minimum requirement of confining steel by Korean Bridge Design Specifications, which represent existing columns not designed by the current seismic design specifications or designed by seismic concept. The final objectives of this study are to provide quantitative reference data and tendency for performance or damage assessment based on the performance levels such as cracking, yielding, steel fracture, etc. In this paper, describes mainly failure behavior, strength degradation behaviour, displacement ductility of circular reinforced concrete bridge columns with respect to test variables.

The fabrication of steel structural members always involves welding process such as flux cored arc welding. Therefore, for the application of structural steels to cold regions, it is a prerequisite to clarify the service temperature of the welded joints in order to ensure the structural integrity of the welded parts. In this study, the Charpy impact test was conducted to evaluate the service temperature of structural steel weld. The Charpy impact test is a commercial quality control test for steels and other alloys used in the construction of metallic structures. The test allows the material properties for service conditions to be determined experimentally in a simple manner with a very low cost. Standard V-notch Charpy specimens were prepared and tested under dynamic loading condition. The service temperatures of the weld metal, HAZ (heat affected zone) and base metal were derived by the absorbed energy and the impact test requirements; thus the applicability of the structural steels to cold regions was discussed in detail.

자동차 차체부품에 적용되는 플라스틱 소재는 강도와 내마모성, 내충격성의 충분한 물성확보가 필요하며, 이에 플라스틱 소재의 기계적 특성 향상을 위해 유리 섬유가 다량 함유된 복합소재적용이 증가하고 있다. 반면 플라스틱이 고강도화함에 따라 제품 성형을 위한 사출 금형을 손상시키는 사례가 빈번하게 발생하고, 소재의 유동성 저하에 따른 사출 불량이 증가하고 있어 고강성 플라스틱 복합소재에 대응하는 고경도, 고내마모 특성이 부여된 사출 금형의 개발이 시급한 실정이다. 특히 사출 금형에 사용되는 소재는 기존 소재에 비해 우수한 내마모성과 함께 고광택을 유지하는 것이 더욱 중요해졌으며, 이에 따라 유럽, 일본과 국내 연구진에 의해 다양한 연구가 진행되고 있다. 그 중에서도 일본에서 개발되어 국내에도 소개된 래디칼 질화는 기존 질화법에 표면의 화합물 층만을 제어하는 것으로 다소의 표면 광택 효과는 있으나, 플라스틱 사출에 그대로 적용하기에는 무리가 따르므로 그 용도가 극히 제한적이다. 본 연구에서 적용한 나노 질화기술은 0.1torr 이하의 고진공에서 고밀도의 플라즈마 에너지를 발생시키는 방법으로 화합물층이 없는 나노 크기의 질화층을 소재 표면에 형성시키는 기술로서, 처리 후에도 표면의 색상 및 광택의 변화가 없는 것을 특징으로 한다. 또한 표면 경도 및 피로 특성을 향상시킴으로써 금형의 내구 수명을 향상시킬 것으로 기대된다. 본 연구에서는 KP4 금형 소재를 사용하여 플라즈마 이온 질화 시험 조건에 따른 소재의 경도 및 내마모 특성을 파악하고, 미세 조직 분석 및 XRD 분석 등을 통해 내마모 특성 향상에 대한 기본 특성을 평가하였다. 또한 인장시험을 통해 인장강도, 항복강도 및 연신율을 파악하고, 이를 토대로 고주기 피로시험을 실시함으로써 S-N curve를 얻고, 이를 통해 피로 강도 및 피로 수명에 미치는 나노 질화 처리의 영향을 파악하고자 하였다. 플라즈마 이온 질화 시험은 질소와 수소 비율($N_2:H_2$), 진공도, Screen bias voltage, Bias voltage를 변화시켰으며, 챔버 온도는 $400^{\circ}C$로 고정하였으며, 처리시간도 3시간으로 고정하였다. 질소와 수소의 비율은 3:1일 때 최고의 내마모 특성을 보였으며, 진공도는 내마모 특성에 큰 영향을 미치지 않는 것으로 관찰되었다. KP4의 초기 경도값은 약 302 Hv인 반면 최적의 나노 질화처리를 거친 시편에서는 800Hv 이상의 Vickers 경도값을 보였다. SEM 미세조직 분석과 EPMA를 통한 성분 분석을 시행한 결과 표층으로부터 약 $1.5{\mu}m$의 나노질화층을 확인할 수 있었다.

The input parameters for numerical simulation of the liquefaction phenomenon need to be properly evaluated from laboratory and field tests, which are difficult to be performed in practical situations. In this study, the numerical simulation of the cyclic direct simple shear test was performed to analyze the applicability of Finn and PM4Sand models among the constitutive models for liquefaction simulation. The analysis results showed that the Finn model properly predicted the time when the excess pore water pressure reached the maximum, but failed to simulate the pore pressure response and the stress-strain behavior of post-liquefaction. On the other hand, the PM4Sand model properly simulated those behaviors of the post liquefaction. Finally, the evaluation procedure and the equations of the input parameters in the PM4Sand model were developed to mach the liquefaction cyclic resistance ratio corresponding to design conditions.

An oligomeric diol was utilized as a modifier for the reaction rate and mechanical properties of a RT-castable polyurethane elastomer. Both the reaction rate and the tensile strength of the blend samples, in which the modifier and the base resins were mixed with one-shot method, showed an exponential decrease as the increase of modifier concentration. Thermal analysis method of Kissinger was also effectively applied in the present study, showing good linearity in the plot of ln $(q/T^2_p)$ vs. $(1/T_p)$ and activation energy $E_a$ of 44.80 kJ/mol, which is similar to the general castable polyurethane. In the mechanical properties, remarkable decrease of strength was found by the addition of modifier concentration range up to about 20 phr, while characteristic elongation property of the elastomer, high elongation at lower strength, was observed over 20 phr of the modifier. Exponential decrease of the break strength of the blend sample exhibited that the mechanical properties of the blend might be considerably sensitive to the modifier concentration.

Friction stir welding was first reported by TWI(The Welding Institute) in 1991, and this welding method has been rapidly used in various industrial areas such railway, automobile, aerospace and shipbuilding industry. Here, we study core characteristics of friction stir welding (FSW) applied to Al 6005-T6 extruded sheets, which is the typical alloy used for railway car bodies. With the fixed welding speed of 500 mm/min, the rotating tool speed was varied from 600 to 1800 RPM. The results of hardness measurement revealed that the hardness of nugget area is ~70% with respect to the parent material, and for the selected range of rotation speed, no clear dependence was observed and the hardness values close to the parent materials were achieved for the area located 5 mm away from the welding interface. The tension test shows that yield strength and tensile strength were slightly decreased with increasing RPM, with no observed difference for the elongation.

The aim of the research is providing the rheological performance range for manufacturing "mid-workability concrete". The mid-workability concrete means the normal strength range concrete mixture with high workability. Since there is not enough study or quantitative definitions on performance of the mid-workability concrete, in this research, the performance range for high workability of mid-workability concrete mixture using rheology. Because of the mixture characteristics of generally used normal strength concrete such as relatively high water-to-cement ratio and no SCMs, segregation of coarse aggregate should be prevent to achieve a successful high workability. From the experimental study in this research scope, 5 to 35 Pa.s of plastic viscosity was desirable to prevent segregation for nid-workability concrete, and general performance range with rheological parameters was provided.

In this study, two types of thrust stand modeling were proposed for the design of a thrust stand using flexure. Type A model generate combined load for tangential (thrust) and axial compressive load (self weight). And type B generate combined load for tangential and axial tensile load. The research was done by comparing the influence of the load between the models through a 1D calculation and computational analysis. The 1D calculated value and the computational analysis value were compared for a total of 10 sections and the results were confirmed to be very similar. In order to prove the validity of the analysis results, the equivalent stress was confirmed from the computational analysis of the flexure, and the production of the Type B model was selected from the evaluation of the yield condition (Von-Mises Yield Criterion).
