A series of two-dimensional (2D) finite element analyses have been performed to study the behaviour of single piles in consolidating ground. The analysis was conducted based on coupled analyses by considering changes of pore water pressure in the clay. In the analyses the soil slippage at the pile and the soil interface has been included. The method widely used in practice somewhat overestimates dragload by about 25% compared to the rigorous numerical analysis since partial mobilization of skin friction near neutral plane and reductions in the vertical soil stress is not incorporated. When soil slip develops at most of the pile length at the pile-soil interface during consolidation, further increases in dragload is not significant. Application of coating on the pile surface can reduce dragload and pile settlement substantially, but under an axial load on the pile head very large pile settlement can be developed unless pile tip is located to a stiff bearing layer.

A highly viscous biopolymer from alkali-tolerant Bacillus sp. was purified and its rheological properties were studied. 1% (w/v) solution of purified biopolymer showed pseudoplastic fluid behavior with the yield stress similar to those of xanthan and guar gum, and its consistency index was exponentially dependent on concentration and temperature. The concentration dependency of consistency index exhibited two rectilinear plots with different slopes at 1% concentration and pseudoplastic property increased with the increase of biopolymer concentration. The biopolymer solution exhibited a low temperature dependency and the activation energy of flow was 1.16 kacl/g mol. The apparent viscosity was very dependent on the change of pH and the addition of salt. However, no organic solvent effects were observed effects of viscosity synergism with the addition of viscosifier were not observed.

A study on the undrained behavior of isotropically consolidated clay-sand mixtures was carried out using the automated triaxial testing apparatus. Overconsolidated ratio, effective mean pressure and clay content( up to 20% bentonite) were the factors varied in the experimental investigation. Undrained behavior(strength and pore water pressure generation during shear in triaxial loading) depends upon overconsolidation ratio, confining pressure and clay content. Significant changes in undrained compression characteristics occurred at around 20% of clay contents in the sand. The test results were analyzed and their behaviors were interpreted within the framework of plasticity constitutive model for clay-sand mixtures. Possible physical bases for the proposed forms are discussed. Validation of the applied model using the laboratory results is also given.

The undrained behavior of Asan marine soil was investigated by using an automated triaxial testing device. The stress-strain behavior at the preand postfailure state of marine soil under undrained compression and eatension conditions was compared with the behavior of pure silt, pure clay and the overall behavior of Asan marine soil was predicted with the modified Camflay model and the bounding surface model. The marine soil sampled in Asan bay area was clayey silts with 70oA silt-30% clay content and the testing samples were prepared in both undisturbed and remolded conditions. All samples are normally consolidated with 400 kPa of effective mean confining pressure and each sample is unloaded to 200, 100, 67 kPa, respectively. And then the shear test was performed with different confining pressure. According to experimental results, there exists an unique failure line whose slope is lower than silt's and higher than clay's. It is identified that the undrained shear strength of normally consolidated samples increases after crossing the phase transformation line because of volume dilation tendency which is not seen in clay. Overconsolidated samples show different soil behavior compared with pure silt due to its tendency of change in volume. It is also found that the overall behavior of Asan marine soil cannot be predicted precisely with the modified Cam-clay model and the bounding surface model.

Rheological characteristics of starch isolated from germinated corn were investigated and compared with those of nongerminated corn starch. Flow behavior of both starches were Bingham psudoplastic. Consistency index and yield stress of germinated starch solution were lower than those of nongerminated starch solution, while flow behavior index was nearly similar. Concentration dependency of both starch solutions were similar to each other but lower temperature dependency of germinated starch solution was observed. Time dependent characteristics of both starches showed thixotropic behavior, but due to germination, germinated starch showed higher structural decay under shear than nongerminated starch and its elastic properties was weaker.

This paper describes the properties of temperature-viscosity characteristics of hydrous and anhydrous electro-rheological fluids containing starch and titanium particle in silicone oil ER effects arise from electrostatic forces between the starch particles and titanium particles dispersed to the electrically insulating silicone oil induced when electric field is applied ER fluids under electric field control have been found to provide resonable estimates of ER fluid viscosity variation characteristics. Yield shear stress of the ER fluids were measured the couette cell type rheometer as a function of electrlc fields. The outer cup is connected to positive electrode(+) and bob becomes ground(-). The electrie field is applied by high voltage DC power supply. In this experiment shear rates were increased from 0 to 200 $s^{-1}$ in 2 minutes. The ER fluid's viscosity change is very small and stable at the temperature range of $40^{\circ}C$ to $60^{\circ}C$. Therefore, applications of a new ER fluid to control systems application are suitable.

Sucrose첨가가 옥수수 전분호액의 레올로지 특성에 미치는 영향에 대하여 평가하였다. 전분호액은 sucrose 첨가에 관계없이 전단담화 비뉴턴 거동(n=0.37-0.58)을 나타내었으며, 또한 sucrose의 농도가 증가함에 따라 점조도지수$(K,\;K_h)$, 겉보기 점도$({\eta}_{a,100})$값은 크게 감소하였고 항복응력$({\sigma}_{oc},\;{\sigma}_h)$도 감소하는 경향을 나타내었다. 전분호액의 겉보기점도에 대한 온도의존성은 Arrhenius식에 의하여 높은 상관관계를 나타내었으며, 활성화에너지는 각각 10.80-15.59 kJ/mole을 나타내었고 농도가 증가함에 따라 감소하는 경향을 나타내었다. 적용된 주파수$({\omega})$ 범위에서 저장탄성률(G#)의 수치가 손실탄성률(G@)보다 높게 나타났으며 sucrose의 농도가 증가함에 따라 감소하여 탄성 및 점성 성질을 감소시켜 주었다. 이들 동적데이터로부터 전분호액은 sucrose 첨가에 의해 더욱 약한 겔과 같은 구조적 성질을 나타냄을 알 수 있었다. 그러므로 sucrose 첨가는 전분호액 내의 입자들의 재회합을 방해하여 전분호액의 레올로지 특성을 변화시킨다. Sucrose 30%를 첨가한 옥수수 전분호액을 제외한 모든 시료들은 이동인자$(shift\;factor,\;\alpha)$를 사용함으로써 Cox-Merz 중첩 원리에 잘 적용되었다.

In exterior beam-column joints, hooked bars are used for anchorage, but usage of high-strength and large-diameter bars increases, headed bar is preferred for solving steel congestion and difficulty in construction. To investigate the structural performance of headed bars, Six exterior beam-column joints were tested under cyclic loading. Tests parameter were the anchorage methods and concrete strength. The test results indicate that behavior of headed bar specimens shows similar performance with hooked bar specimens. All specimens failed by flexural failure of the beam. Headed bar specimens shows better performance in anchorage and joint shear. All specimens were satisfied the criteria of ACI374.1-05. Test results indicate that use of headed bar in exterior beam column joint is available.

The rheological properties of sugar and cocoa particle suspensions in cocoa butter under molten condition were analyzed with Haake rotationary viscometer. Both suspensions had yield value and showed rheopexy at low shear rate and thixotropy at high shear rate. Flow behaviors of the suspensions were analyzed with modified Casson model. Casson viscosity and yield value increased with increasing the concentration of sugar and cocoa particles. There was an obvious dependence of the Casson viscosity and yield value on the particle size distributions that was represented by the Sauter mean diameter of the particles. Casson viscosity and yield value of cocoa butter-sugar suspension increased with increasing the fineness of sugar particle crystal. With increasing the fineness of cocoa particle a decreasing Casson viscosity of cocoa butter-cocoa particle suspension was achieved, but the yield value did not change significantly with cocoa particle size. Therefore, it was predicted that the best rheological properties of chocolate could be obtained with the combination of coarse ground sugar $(d=36.30{\mu}m)$ and fine ground cocoa particle $(d=14.81{\mu}m)$ within the studied range.

Common Structural Rules (CSR) about bulk carriers and double-hull oil tankers of International Association of Classification Societies (IACS) has been applied to ships contracted for construction since April 2006. By unifying each society's rules, the difference of opinion in the between shipyard and ship owners, classification was reduced, and CSR has been evaluated by rules the safety structure more enhanced. However, The CSR about the bulk carriers and double hull oil tankers, important design content standards, such as the local scantling calculation, static/dynamic load case and corrosion margin and etc., are different. Therefore in order to combine the CSR, the Harmonized CSR for bulk carriers and double hull oil tankers (H-CSR) was issued on 1, January, 2014, and will be apply to ships contracted for construction after 1st July 2015. It is necessary to verify the H-CSR to optimize the structural arrangement because effective date is not far off. In this study, we compared the impact by rule change for the hull girder shear strength of bulk carriers between CSR and H-CSR in respect of the yielding and buckling strength.
