This paper investigates the framework of vision-based dense displacement and strain measurement of miter gates with the approach for the quantitative evaluation of the expected performance. The proposed framework consists of the following steps: (i) Estimation of 3D displacement and strain from images before and after deformation (water-fill event), (ii) evaluation of the expected performance of the measurement, and (iii) selection of measurement setting with the highest expected accuracy. The framework first estimates the full-field optical flow between the images before and after water-fill event, and project the flow to the finite element (FE) model to estimate the 3D displacement and strain. Then, the expected displacement/strain estimation accuracy is evaluated at each node/element of the FE model. Finally, methods and measurement settings with the highest expected accuracy are selected to achieve the best results from the field measurement. A physics-based graphics model (PBGM) of miter gates of the Greenup Lock and Dam with the updated texturing step is used to simulate the vision-based measurements in a photo-realistic environment and evaluate the expected performance of different measurement plans (camera properties, camera placement, post-processing algorithms). The framework investigated in this paper can be used to analyze and optimize the performance of the measurement with different camera placement and post-processing steps prior to the field test.

연구 목적: 이 연구는 임플란트 식립 시 미세나사가 변연골에 발생시키는 스트레인을 조사하여, 변연골의 골유착에 장애를 줄 수 있는 골의 과부하 영역 이 미세나사에 의해 확장되는 양태를 평가하였다. 연구 재료 및 방법: 3종의 임플란트 식립 모델을 삼차원적 유한 요소분석으로 실험하였다. 대조 모델은 미세나사가 없이 주나사만 있는 $4.1{\times}10$ mm 임플란트 (Submerged model, Dentis Co, Daegu, Korea), type I은 미세나사가 있는 straight body, type II는 미세나사가 있는 7% tapered body로 설정하였다. 임플란트가 치밀골을 통과하는 3,600 단계의 식립 과정이 모사되었다. 유한요소 해석에는PC용으로 출시된DEFORM$^{TM}$ 3D (ver 5, SFTC, Columbus, OH, USA)가 사용되었다 결과:임플란트 외벽으로부터 1 mm 이내의 변연골 스트레인 영역은 대조모델에서의 4000 ${\mu}$-strain 보다 높았다. Type I 임플란트의 경우 임플란트 외벽으로부터 1-1.5 mm 영역 이내의 인접골이 과부하 영역에 속하였고, type II 임플란트의 경우에는 2 mm 이상이었다. 결론: 미세나사의 유무와 몸체의 테이퍼 유무에 따라 변연골 스트레인은 직접적인 영향을 받았고 대조모델에 비해 경부 미세나사가 있는 type I 및 type II 임플란트의 식립 시 변연골의 과부하 영역이 월등히 컸다.

교정용 마이크로 임플란트는 나사산을 매개수단으로 한 인접골 압박으로 골내 고정력을 얻는다. 그러므로 충분한 고정력을 얻기 위해서는 나사산이 크면 유리하다. 그러나 몸체에서 차지하는 나사산의 부피비율이 과도하면 이는 코어(core) 직경을 감소시켜 파절위험성을 증대시킬 뿐 아니라, 식립 시 나사산이 골을 지나치게 압박, 인접골에 골개형 장애를 일으켜 임플란트를 이완시키는 원인이 될 수도 있다. 따라서 마이크로 임플란트의 안정성은 그 나사산 디자인이 치밀골 특성과 조화를 이루어야 한다. 본 연구에서는 $Absoanchor^{(R)}$ SH1312-7 (Dentos Inc., Daegu, Korea) 모델을 비교모델로 선택, 몸체와 나사산 사이즈의 조화를 이루기 위한 최적화 해석을 실행하였다. 나사산의 높이(h)와 피치(p)를 디자인 변수로 하여 임플란트 안정성 증대, 식립 시 골 과부하 감소, 파절강도 증대를 목표로 목적함수 SQ(Stability Quotient)를 설정, 해석함으로써 4가지의 다른 h, p 조합을 갖는 나사산을 디자인하였다. 4종의 실험모델과 비교모델에 대해 3D 유한요소법을 이용한 임플란트 식립모사 해석으로, 식립 시 예상되는 골 과부하 영역을 비교하였으며(self tapping과 self drilling의 두 식립 방식에 대해), 또한 실험모델의 실물(prototype)을 가공, 토오크 파절 시험을 실시하였다. 평가결과, 실험모델은 비교모델에 비해 식립 시 인접골 과부하 영역을 덜 발생시켰으며, 파절강도는 더 높게 관찰되었으며, 이로써 나사산 디자인 최적화에 사용된 SQ의 타당성을 확인할 수 있었다.

In general, a number of lifting lugs have been used in shipbuilding industry and the D-type lugs are mainly used. The aim of this paper is to increase the cycle of the use and to reduce the size of lifting lugs to introduce lightweight shackle. In this study, nonlinear elasto-plastic analysis has been performed to confirm the ultimate strength of lifting lugs. In order to evaluate the proper design-load distribution around lug eye, the contact force between lifting lug and shackle pin has been realized by gab element model. Gap element modeling and nonlinear analysis are carried out using the finite element program MSC/PATRAN & ABQUS. Additionally the ultimate strength tests were performed to verify the structural adequacy of newly designed lifting lug and to insure safety of it. The D-10, 15, 20 & 40 ton models which are mainly used in the block erection are selected in the strength test. According to the results of the analysis and strength test, the ultimate strength of the newly designed lifting lugs has been estimated to exceed 3 times of design working load.

In this paper, we propose a 2D-FE model in single impact with combined physical factors to obtain a unique residual stress by shot peening. Applied physical parameters include elastic-plastic deformation of shot ball, material damping coefficients, strain rate, dynamic friction coefficients. Single impact FE model consists of 2D axisymmetric elements. The FE model with combined factors showed converged and unique distributions of surface stress, maximum compressive residual stress and deformation depth. Further, in contrast to the FE models with rigid shot and elastic deformable shot, FE model with plastic deformable shot produces residual stresses very close to experimental solutions by X-ray diffraction. We therefore validated the 2D FE model with combined peeing factors and plastic deformable shot. This FE model will be a base of the 3D FE model for residual stresses by multi-impact shot peening.

This paper presents a combined experimental, numerical, and analytical study on elliptical concrete-filled steel tubular (E-CFT) and rebar-stiffened elliptical concrete-filled steel tubular (RE-CFT) subjected to axial loading. ABAQUS was used to establish 3D finite element (FE) models for the composite columns and the FE results agreed well with the experimental results. It was found that the ultimate load-bearing capacity of RE-CFT stub columns was 20% higher than that of the E-CFT stub columns. Such improvement was attributed to the reinforcement effects from the internal rebar-stiffeners, which effectively enhanced the confinement effect on the core concrete, thereby significantly improved both the ultimate bearing capacity and the ductility of the E-CFT columns. Based on the results, equations were also established in this paper to predict the bearing capacities of E-CFT and RE-CFT stub columns under axial loading. The predicted results agreed well with both experimental and numerical results, and had much higher accuracy than other available methods.

While establishing adequate load paths in the light-frame wood structures is critical to maintain the overall structural integrity and avoid significant damage under extreme wind events, the understanding of the load paths is limited by the high redundant nature of this building type. The objective of the current study is to evaluate the system effects and investigate the load paths in the wood structures especially the older buildings for a better performance assessment of the existing building stock under high winds, which will provide guidance for building constructions in the future. This is done by developing building models with configurations that are suspicious to induce failure per post damage reconnaissance. The effect of each configuration to the structural integrity is evaluated by the first failure wind speed, amajor indicator beyond the linear to the nonlinear range. A 3D finite-element (FE) building model is adopted as a control case that is modeled using a validated methodology in a highly-detailed fashion where the nonlinearity of connections is explicitly simulated. This model is then altered systematically to analyze the effects of configuration variations in the model such as the gable end sheathing continuity and the gable end truss stiffness, etc. The resolution of the wind loads from scaled wind tunnel tests is also discussed by comparing the effects to wind loads derived from large-scale wind tests.

Pure torsion loading conditions were not frequently occurred in practical engineering, but the torsional researches were important since it's the basis of mechanical property researches under complex loading. Then a 3D finite element model with precise material constitutive models was established, and the effectiveness was verified with test data. Parametric studies with varying factors as steel yield strength, concrete strength and sectional height-width ratio, were performed. Internal stress state and the interaction effect between encased steel tube and the core concrete were analyzed. Results indicated that due to the confinement effect between steel tube and core concrete, the torsional strength of CFT columns was greatly improved comparing to plain concrete columns. The steel ratio would greatly influence the torque share between the steel tube and the core concrete. Then the torsional strength calculation formulas for core concrete and the whole CFT column were proposed. The proposed formula could be simpler and easier to use with guaranteed accuracy. Related design codes were more conservative than the proposed formula, but the proposed formula presented more satisfactory agreement with experimental results.

This paper presents a displacement-based numerical methodology following the Euler-Bernoulli theory to simulate the 2 nonlinear behavior of steel structures. It is worth emphasizing the adoption of co-rotational finite element formulations considering large displacements and rotations and an inelastic material behavior. The numerical procedures proposed considers plasticity concentrated at the finite elements nodes, and the simulation of the steel nonlinear behavior is approached via the Strain Compatibility Method (SCM), where the material constitutive relation is used explicitly. The SCM is also applied in determining the sections bearing capacity. Moreover, the present numerical approach is not limited to a specific structural member cross-sectional typology, with the residual stress models introduced explicitly in subareas of steel cross-sections generated by a 2D discretization. Finally, results consistent with the literature and with low processing time are presented.
