Recently, medical imaging has taken interest on CAD based solution for anatomical part fabrication or finite element analysis of human body. In principle, contours representing object boundary are obtained through image processing techniques. Surface models are then approximated by a skinning method. For this, various methods should be applied to medical images and contours. The major bottleneck of the reconstruction is to remove shape inconsistency between contours and to generate the branching surface. In order to solve these problems, bi-directional smoothing and the composite contour generation method are proposed. Bi-directional smoothing has advantage of removing the shape inconsistency between contours and minimizing shrinkage effect with a large number of iterations. The composite contour by the proposed method ensures smooth transition in branching region.

This paper presents forced vibration analysis of sandwich deep beams made of functionally graded material (FGM) in face layers and a porous material in core layer. The FGM sandwich deep beam is subjected to a harmonic dynamic load. The FGM in the face layer is graded though the layer thickness. In order to get more realistic result for the deep beam problem, the plane solid continua is used in the modeling of The FGM sandwich deep beam. The equations of the problem are derived based the Hamilton procedure and solved by using the finite element method. The novelty in this paper is to investigate the dynamic responses of sandwich deep beams made of FGM and porous material by using the plane solid continua. In the numerical results, the effects of different material distributions, porosity coefficient, geometric and dynamic parameters on the dynamic responses of the FGM sandwich deep beam are investigated and discussed.

Modular construction is a construction method whereby prefabricated volumetric units are produced in a factory and are installed on site to form a building block. The construction productivity can be substantially improved by the manufacturing and assembly of standardized modular units. 3D printing is a computer-controlled fabrication method first adopted in the manufacturing industry and was utilized for the automated construction of small-scale houses in recent years. Implementing 3D printing in the fabrication of modular units brings huge benefits to modular construction, including increased customization, lower material waste, and reduced labor work. Such implementation also benefits the large-scale and wider adoption of 3D printing in engineering practice. However, a critical issue for 3D printed modules is the loading capacity, particularly in response to horizontal forces like wind load, which requires a deeper understanding of the building structure behavior and the design of load-bearing modules. Therefore, this paper presents the state-of-the-art literature concerning recent achievement in 3D printing for buildings, followed by discussion on the opportunities and challenges for examining 3D printing in modular construction. Promising 3D printing techniques are critically reviewed and discussed with regard to their advantages and limitations in construction. The appropriate structural form needs to be determined at the design stage, taking into consideration the overall building structural behavior, site environmental conditions (e.g., wind), and load-carrying capacity of the 3D printed modules. Detailed finite element modelling of the entire modular buildings needs to be conducted to verify the structural performance, considering the code-stipulated lateral drift, strength criteria, and other design requirements. Moreover, integration of building information modelling (BIM) method is beneficial for generating the material and geometric details of the 3D printed modules, which can then be utilized for the fabrication.

본 논문은 지반위에 놓인 콘크리트 슬래브가 환경하중에 의해 컬링 할 때의 거동을 해석할 경우에 하부층의 모델링 방법에 따른 해석 결과의 차이를 분석한 내용을 기술하였다. 지반위에 놓인 슬래브 시스템을 전체 3차원 모델, 3차원 슬래브와 하부층을 스프링으로 구성한 모델, 그리고 2차윈 슬래브와 하부층을 스프링으로 구성한 모델 등으로 개발하여 해석을 수행하였다. 먼저 하부층이 단일 층으로 구성되어 있을 경우에 하부층 모델링 방법에 따른 컬링 거동의 차이를 분석하였다. 그리고 하부층이 서로 다른 재료와 두께로 구성되어 있는 복층일 경우에 하부층 모델링에 따른 컬링 거동의 특성을 비교 분석하였다. 연구결과 하부층을 무인장 스프링으로 모델링 하면 하부층이 단층일 경우에는 일반적으로는 상당히 정확한 해석결과를 얻을 수 있으나, 하부층이 복층일 경우에는 상위하부층의 탄성계수가 클 때, 하위하부층의 탄성계수가 작을 때, 그리고 상위하부층과 하위하부층의 두께가 두꺼울 때는 컬링 시에 슬래브의 수직변위 차이를 과대평가하게 되며 최대응력은 과소평가하게 된다.

In this study, the efficiency of adaptive neuro-fuzzy inference system (ANFIS) and genetic expression programming (GEP) in predicting the effects of infill walls on base reactions and roof drift of reinforced concrete frames were investigated. Current standards generally consider weight and fundamental period of structures in predicting base reactions and roof drift of structures by neglecting numbers of floors, bays, shear walls and infilled bays. Number of stories, number of bays in x and y directions, ratio of shear wall areas to the floor area, ratio of bays with infilled walls to total number bays and existence of open story were selected as parameters in GEP and ANFIS modeling. GEP and ANFIS have been widely used as alternative approaches to model complex systems. The effects of these parameters on base reactions and roof drift of RC frames were studied using 3D finite element method on 216 building models. Results obtained from 3D FEM models were used to in training and testing ANFIS and GEP models. In ANFIS and GEP models, number of floors, number of bays, ratio of shear walls and ratio of infilled bays were selected as input parameters, and base reactions and roof drifts were selected as output parameters. Results showed that the ANFIS and GEP models are capable of accurately predicting the base reactions and roof drifts of RC frames used in the training and testing phase of the study. The GEP model results better prediction compared to ANFIS model.

본 연구는 LNG저장탱크가 설치될 느슨한 포화사질지반을 대상으로 개정된 액상화 평가법과 UBC3D-PLM 모델을 이용한 1차원 유효응력해석에 의한 액상화 평가법을 비교한 것이다. 이를 위해 여러가지 실내 및 현장시험을 실시하여 필요한 Parameter를 산정하였다. 검토결과, 지진응답해석결과와 SPT N 값을 이용하는 개정 액상화 평가법은 액상화 발생 가능성을 높게 평가하였지만, 다양한 액상화 저항인자를 고려할 수 있는 유효응력해석법은 액상화에 다소 안정한 것으로 분석되었다. UBC3D-PLM 모델을 이용한 1차원 유한요소해석을 할 경우 보다 간편하게 액상화 안정성 검토가 가능하였고, 액상화 보강 영역을 최소화 할 수 있었다. 또한, LNG저장탱크의 기초를 고려한 2·3차원 수치해석 시에는 액상화 발생 시 내진설계 및 거동특성을 규명하는 것에 활용될 수 있을 것으로 기대된다.

전기비저항 탐사법은 저수지 누수구간 탐지에 매우 효과적이고 실질적인 물리탐사법이다. 일반적으로 저수지 제체의 마루에서 수행되는 전기비저항 탐사는 저수지가 2차원 구조를 갖고 있다고 가정한다. 하지만 저수지 제체에서 얻어지는 전기비저항 탐사자료는 저수지의 3차원 지형에 의해 크게 영향을 받는다. 본 연구에서는 유한요소법을 사용하는 3차원 전기비저항 탐사 모델링 프로그램을 통하여 저수지의 3차원 구조와 저수지 수위의 변화가 전기비저항 탐사자료에 미치는 영향을 평가하였다. 또한 측선의 위치에 따른 전기비저항 탐사자료를 비교하였으며, 지형보정 기법을 개발하였다. 마지막으로 누수구간이 존재하는 제체에 대한 3차원 모델링 자료에 대하여 2.5차원 역산을 수행하여 2차원 전기비저항 탐사법을 이용한 누수구간 탐지의 가능성을 분석하였다.

Finite element analysis(FEA) has been extensively applied in the analyses of biomechanical properties of stents. Geometrically, a closed-cell stent is an assembly of a number of repeated unit cells and exhibits periodicity in both longitudinal and circumferential directions. This study concentrates on various parameters of the FEA models for the analysis of drug-eluting biodegradable polymeric stents for application to the treatment of coronary artery disease. In order to determine the mechanical characteristics of biodegradable polymeric stents, FEA was used to model two different types of stents: tubular stents(TS) and helicoidal stents(HS). For this modeling, epigallocatechin-3-O-gallate (EGCG)-eluting poly[(L-lactide-co-${\varepsilon}$-caprolactone), PLCL] (E-PLCL) was chosen as drug-eluting stent materials. E-PLCL was prepared by blending PLCL with 5% EGCG as previously described. In addition, the effects of EGCG blending on the mechanical properties of PLCL were investigated for both types of stent models. EGCG did not affect tensile strength at break, but significantly increased elastic modulus of PLCL. It is suggested that FEA is a cost-effective method to improve the design of drug-eluting biodegradable polymeric stents.

본 논문은 단섬유 칩으로 구성된 Sheet Molding Compound(SMC) 복합재료를 실험적으로 관찰된 특징들을 바탕으로 메소스케일(meso-scale) 대표체적요소(RVE: Representative Volume Element)를 재구성하는 새로운 알고리즘을 제시한다. 전산해석을 이용하여 SMC 복합재료의 비등방성 거동의 정확한 예측은 어려운 문제이다. 이를 극복하기 위해, SMC 복합재료를 위한 일련의 이미지 프로세싱 기술과 재구성 알고리즘 및 유한요소(FE: Finite Element) 생성기로 구성된 SMC RVE 모델을 개발하였다. 첫째, micro-CT 이미지 프로세싱은 SMC 물성에 직접적인 상관관계를 가지는 섬유칩의 배향 및 분산의 확률적 분포를 평가한다. 둘째, 해당 통계적 분포를 바탕으로 섬유칩 간의 겹침효과를 고려한 섬유칩 팩킹 재구성 알고리즘을 개발한다. 마지막으로, SMC 복합재료 멀티스케일 해석을 이용하여 매크로스케일(macro-scale)에서의 거동을 파악하고 실험데이터를 통해 검증을 수행한다.
