The axial load on the concrete-filled steel tube (CFT) column produces confinement stress, which enhances strength of the core concrete. The amount of strength increase in concrete depends on the magnitude of produced confinement stress. From nonlinear analyses, the ultimate resisting capacity of the CFT columns subjected to axial loads was calculated. Nonlinear material properties such as Poisson's ratio and stress-strain relation were considered in the suggested model, and the maximum confining stress was obtained by multi axial yield criteria of the steel tube. This proposed model was verified by comparing the analytical results with experimental results. Then, regression analyses were conducted to predict the maximum confining stress according to D/t ratio and material properties without rigorous structural analysis. To ensure the validity of the suggested regression formula, various empirical formulas and Eurocode4 design code were compared.

1) 수치해석 결과, 운용압력으로 인한 엘보우에서의 응력은 재료의 강도에 비해 파손을 발생시 키기에는 상대적으로 작았고, 오히려 온도차에 의한 열응력이 내압에 의한 응력보다 매우 컸다. 즉 축방향 열응력은 운용압력에 의한 것보다 두배 더 크게 나타났다. 2) 파면의 육안 검사 결과, 급격한 파손은 취성 벽개 파괴로 인한 것으로 추측된다. 3) 시험 결과 균열이 시작하여 임계 크기로 진전한 부위인 K사에서 만든 엘보우는 S사에서 만든 것보다 훨씬 더 취성적임을 보여 주었다. 4) 임계 균열크기를 계산하기 위해 파괴 역학적 해석을 사용하는데 그 결과는 파손된 면에서 관 찰한 실제 균열 크기와 상당히 일치하였다. 5) 유사한 사고를 방지하기 위하여, 플랜트를 가동하는 동안 계속적으로 파괴 역학적 개념을 적 용해야 한다. 또한 운용전과 운용중에 잘 준비된 비파괴검사법을 사용하여야 한다.

The structural behavior of sandwich plates with unsymmetricaly thick faces are analysed using Raleigh-Ritz Energy method by comparing the bending stresses, shear stresses, local bending stresses, membrane stresses of skin and core materials including local bending effect. As for sandwich materials, the combination of two types of face materials and three types of core materials are used in the analysis.

Two types of very small multiplying gears and arrays have been developed for new dental hand-pieces, and the increased speed ratios, modules, number of teeth, gear diameters, and gear types were calculated based on the dynamics of the machinery. The contacting and bending strengths were evaluated for gear teeth with two design concepts using AGMA equations and finite element analyses, and the contacting stresses on teeth with and without DLC (diamond-like-carbon) coating layers were calculated. Fatigue and tension tests were performed to obtain an S-N curve, the Young's modulus, and the strength of the gear material, and these were utilized in the analyses. Slightly larger stresses were found for 2-axis-type gears than for other types of gears, and the S-N curves showed that a gear lifetime of 109 cycles was satisfied. The contacting stresses in gears coated with DLC were reduced by 30%. A new prototype model of a hand-piece with small gears was successfully fabricated and tested.

The purpose of this study is to examine the structural stability of a low speed 200 W class gyromill type vertical axis wind turbine system. For the analysis, a commercial code is adopted. The pressure distribution on the rotor blade surface is examined in detail. In order to perform unidirectional FSI(Fluid-Structure Interaction) analysis, the pressure resulted from CFD analysis has been mapped on the surface of wind turbine as load condition. The rotational speed and gravitational force of wind turbine are also considered. The results of FSI analysis show that the wind turbine reveals an enough structural margin. The maximum structural displacement occurs at trailing edge of blade and the maximum stress occurs at the strut.

In the present paper, we evaluate the effects of the safe-end length and thickness of the similar metal weld (SMW) of safety injection nozzles on stress distributions at the dissimilar metal weld (DMW). For this evaluation, we carry out detailed 2-D axisymmetric finite element analyses by considering four different values of the safe-end length and four different values of the thickness of SMW. Based on the results obtained, we found that the SMW thickness affects the axial stresses at the center of the DMW for the shorter safe-end length; on the other hand, it does not affect the hoop stresses. In terms of the safe-end length, the values of the axial and hoop stresses at the inner surface of the DMW center increase as the safe-end length increases. In particular, for the cases considered in the present study, the stress distributions at the DMW center can be categorized according to certain values of safe-end length.

The Paper describes the observed behaviour in the undrained triaxial condition of marine clays remoulded at various different levels of factors, to find out the effects of restricted factors on the stress-strain characteristics. The conventional triaxial compression tests $({\sigma}1>{\sigma}2={\sigma}3)$ were carried out on the 50mm in diameter and 100mm long cylindrical specimens of Gun-san bay mud under controlled various moisture content, density, axial strain rate and passing on No. 200 sieve. Significant conclusions from this study are; 1. The compressible deviator stress at failure of pure marine clay was observed to increase with the decrease of moulding moisture content. 2. The compressible deviator stress at failure increased with the increasing of moulding dry density. 3. The interaction between moisture content and density on the stress-strain characteristics of marine clay was remarkedly significant, as the result of factorial experimental method. 4. The effect of axial strain rate on stress-strain behaviour was unsignificant in marine clay and but the secant moduli could be pronounced on a slight decreasing with increase of the strain rate. 5. With the increasing of the passing on No. 200 sieve, the deviator stress increased regularly. 6. The multiple regression equation could be modeled for the prediction of stress or strain and the comparison with experimental results relatively proved the accuracy.

In this study, we investigated the variations in welding residual stresses in dissimilar metal butt weld due to width of repair welding and re-distribution behaviors resulting from similar metal welding (SMW) and mechanical loading. To this end, detailed two-dimensional axi-symmetric finite element (FE) analyses were performed considering five different repair welding widths. Based on the FE results, we first evaluated the welding residual stress distributions in repair welding. We then investigated the re-distribution behaviors of the residual stresses due to SMW and mechanical loads. It is revealed that large tensile welding residual stresses take place in the inner surface and that its distribution is affected, provided repair welding width is larger than certain value. The welding residual stresses resulting from repair welding are remarkably reduced due to SMW and mechanical loading, regardless of the width of the repair welding.

The object of this paper is to compare stress intensity factor that be calculated by Raju-Newman's equation, finite element method, and Vessel INTegrity analysis inner flaws(VINTIN) program for longitudinal semi-elliptical cracks in cylindrical vessel under inner pressure. For this, three-dimensional finite-element analyses were performed to obtain the stress intensity factors for various surface cracks with t/R = 0.1. The finite element meshes were designed for various crack shapes with t/R of 0.1. The crack depth to thickness ratio, a/t, was set to 0.2 and 0.5 matching Raju-Newman's equation. The crack depth to length ratio, a/c, was set to 0.2 and 0.4 in the same way and 0.33 was added to extend the range of crack configuration. Finite Element Analyses(FEA) were performed using the commercial FEA program ABAQUS. The results showed that the Raiu-Newman solutions were about 4-10% lower than FEA's using symmetric model of one-eighth of a vessel and close to those of FEA using symmetric model or one-forth or a vessel. Ana VINTIN solutions were nearly equal to those or Raju-Newman.

A series of torsion shear tests were performed to study the drained stress -strain behavior of medium dense Santa Monica Beach sand under various stress paths. The torque was applied to both clockwise and counterclockwise directions at the end of hollow cylinder specimen. Two clip gages had been previously used to measure the changes in wall thickness and diameter of the specimen. In this study, however, the lateral strain was determined by measuring volume changes in specimen. Specimens were prepared by the air pluviation method and gaseous carbon deozide( CO2) was used to measure precisely volumetric strain in specimen. The drained stress -strain behavior of cohesionless Boils during rotation of principal stress directions was analysed based on the results of torsion shear tests. The coupling of mal stress were applied. It was also found from the test results that the atrial strain at failure decreased with increasing value.
