This research is a part of a research program to verify the seismic performance of circular reinforced concrete bridge columns with respect to longitudinal steel connection details under cyclic lateral load. A total of 21 column specimens were constructed and tested. Main variables in this test program were longitudinal steel connection details(continuous, lap-spliced, and mechanically connected), confinement steel ratio, and axial force ratio, etc. The test results of the columns with different longitudinal steel connection details showed different failure mode, strength degradation, and seismic performance. From the quasi-static test, it was found that the columns with all longitudinal reinforcement lap-spliced showed significantly reduced ductility. However, seismic performance of the columns with half of longitudinal reinforcement lap-spliced showed limited ductility but much more ductile behaviour than the columns with all longitudinal reinforcement lap-spliced. It was also found that the seismic performance, failure mode and strength degradation of columns with mechanical connected longitudinal reinforcement were similar to those of columns with continuous longitudinal reinforcement.

The compressive and dynamic properties of magnetorheological elastomers were investigated as functions of magnetizable particle volume fraction, alignment of the embedded particle and magnetic force. The specimens consisted of pure and filled silicons with randomly dispersed, longitudinal and transverse aligned magnetizable particle chains. To align the embedded particles in the elastomer, the cross-linking of the elastomer composites took place in a magnetic field. The compression and dynamic tests in the absence and the presence of different magnetic forces were carried out. The modulus and loss factor of the elastomer composites increase with increasing volume fraction at the same magnetic force. The case of longitudinal alignment shows a high modulus and loss factor when compared to the case of transverse alignment or random dispersion.

By Testing restrained shrinkage, it is possible to estimating the cracking tendency of concrete such as time to cracking, tensile stress and tensile creep. In this study, tensile creep properties of concrete under restraint shrinkage were investigation through comparison of specimens that JIS and AASHTO proposed. As a results, tensile creep strains in concrete ring specimens were 15% higher than those in uniaxial specimens.

해사기술연구소가 보유하고 있는 6자유도 대형진동대의 시스템 구성과 시험파형 합성기법 및 시험방법에 대하여 간략히 살펴보았다. 통상적인 가진기가 1방향의 운동만을 구현할 수 있음에 비해, 6자유도 진동대는 3축병진, 3축 회전의 임의의 복잡운동을 구현할 수 있는 국내 유일의 설비이며 용량 또한 30톤의 시험체까지를 대상으로 한 대형 진동대로서 각종 분야에 필요한 진동시험 업무를 지원할 수 있다. 구조물의 방진 및 내진설계를 위해서는 가능한한 실물 또는 모형의 실증실험이 필수적이며, 이는 내진 해석기법의 개발 및 검증의 기초가 된다. 특히 이 시스템은 내진 검증시험에 필요한 모든 기능을 갖추고 있으므로, 앞으로 건설될 국내원자력 발전소에 이용되는 각종기기의 내진검증시험을 통하여 이들 기기의 국산화에 크게 이바지할 것으로 보인다.

대한민국 달탐사 시험용 궤도선은 2020년 말에 발사를 예정으로 위성개발이 진행되고 있다. KPLO(Korea Pathfinder Lunar Orbiter) 라고 명명된 달 궤도선에는 6개의 탑재체가 있으며, 경희대학교 우주탐사학과에서는 달 주위 공간 및 달 표면의 이상 자기장 영역을 관측하는 탑재체 (KMAG: Kplo MAGnetometer)를 개발하고 있다. 자기장센서는 3축 플럭스게이트 센서를 사용하며 약 0.2nT 이하의 분해능을 가지고 있다. 측정주기는 10Hz이며 총 무게는 3.5kg 이다. 1.2m 길이의 붐(Boom) 구조물 내부에 3개의 자기장 센서들을 설치하였으며 가능한 위성체로부터 거리를 두고 자기장을 측정하는 구조로 구성하였다. 시험모델 개발을 완료하고, 개발된 탑제체의 환경시험결과와 성능시험결과 요구조건에 부합되는 결과를 얻었다. KAMG는 국내최초의 심우주 탐사용 자기장 측정기로서 향 후, 행성 및 소행성 탐사 등에 활용하기 위한 기반 기술로 활용할 수 있을 것으로 기대한다.

The potential shear strength of reinforced concrete beams decreases after flexural yielding due to the decrease of the effective compressive strength of concrete in plastic hinge zone. A truss model considering shear deterioration in the plastic hinge zone was proposed in order to evaluate the ductile capacity of reinforced concrete beams failing in shear after flexural yielding This model can determine the potential shear strength of the beam by using a truss model. The potential shear strength gradually decreases as the increase of the axial strain of member. When the calculated potential shear strength decreases up to the flexural yielding strength, the corresponding rotation angle is defined as the ductile capacity of the beam. The predicted ductile capacity of reinforced concrete beams is shown to be in a good agreement with experimental results.

Ultra-low shrinkage concrete is very effective for securing the quality and appearance of a concrete structure because it can control the drying shrinkage cracks of the concrete structure to within a certain limit. In this study, with the purpose of commercializing ultra-low shrinkage concrete, the optimal amount of expansive agent and shrinkage reducing agent was determined through a lab test, and a concrete wall mock-up test was conducted to examine the shrinkage properties and crack control effects of ultra-low shrinkage concrete. As a result, it was confirmed that there was little drying shrinkage deformation in the wall specimen, and furthermore that no cracks were generated.

Developed in this study were Octagonal-hollow-section(OHS) struts, whose compressive strengths against flexural and local buckling is higher than H-shape or rectangular-hollow-section(RHS) struts with the same unit weight. OHS members are also advantageous in handling and storing compared to circular hollow sections(CHS). OHS members were fabricated from HR Plates by cold forming and fillet welding. 5 numbers of 20m long OHS struts were assembled, each of which consist of two 9.6m long OHS member and two end connection elements made of cast iron. The compressive strength of the OHS strut was evaluated by comparing the test results, design codes and FEM analysis each other. Test results show that all of the struts have almost same or larger compressive strength than Korean Road Bridge Design Code(KRBDC) (2012). The initial imperfections can be estimated by using measured strains and are turned out to be less than L/450 for all the struts tested. The results of FEM analysis show that the variation of initial imperfection has less effects on the compressive strength for struts with vertical surcharge than for those with self-weight only, while the strength decreases as the initial imperfection increases. As the result of this study, the allowable initial imperfection for 20m long OHS struts is recommended to be less than L/350 on job sites.

In order to improve the shear strength of conventional pre-tensioned spun high strength concrete (PHC) pile, concrete-infilled composite PHC (ICP) pile, a PHC pile reinforced by means of shear reinforcement and infilled concrete, is proposed. Two types of specimens were cast and tested according to KS (Korean Standards) to verify the shear strength enhancement of ICP pile. Based on the test results, it was found that the KS method was not suitable due to causing shear failure of ICP pile. However, shear strength enhancement was clearly verified. The obtained shear strength of the ICP pile was more than twice that of conventional PHC pile. In addition, the shear strength of ICP pile reinforced with longitudinal reinforcement was estimated to be more than 2.5 times greater than that of conventional PHC pile. The allowable shear force of ICP pile, which was determined by the allowable stress design process, indicated a large safety factor of more than 2.9 compared to the test results.
