This study suggests design criteria to evaluate the availability of anchorage in Korea to contribute to ship safety by presenting necessary design criteria for anchorage volume according to port development. Accordingly, the concept of "necessary volume of anchorage" is introduced to evaluate the volume of anchorage available in Korea's major ports, and classify these ports into three types according to the characteristics of incoming ship. Numerical simulations designed using MATLAB-SIMULINK have been carried out to track the irregularly of arrival and, waiting times along with the environmental conditions that affect anchorage and necessary volume of anchorage have been suggested based on these tests. Finally, in order to complete a function equation analysis, the necessary volume of anchorage with reference to cargo volume is addressed using regression analysis as follows. Group $A-Y_{NA}=0.0002X_{HA}-3.67$, Group $B-Y_{NB}=0.0002X_{HB}-6.82$, Group $C-Y_{NC}=0.0001X_{HC}+9.02$. This study contributes to a review of anchorage volume from the perspective of harbor development.

Design equations to evaluate the bursting force in a post-tensioned anchorage zone have been introduced in many design codes, and one equation in AASHTO LRFD is widely used. However, this equation may not determine the bursting force exactly because it was designed on the basis of two-dimensional numerical analyses without considering various design parameters such as the duct hole and shape of the bearing plate. To improve the design equation, modification of the AASHTO LRFD design equation was considered. The behavior of the anchorage zone was investigated using three-dimensional linear elastic finite element analysis with design parameters such as bearing plate size and diameter of sheath hole. Upon the suggestion of a modified design equation for evaluating the bursting force in an anchorage block with a rectangular anchorage plate (Kim and Kwak 2018), additional influences of design parameters that could affect the evaluation of bursting force were investigated. An improved equation was introduced for determining the bursting force in an anchorage block with a circular anchorage plate, using the same procedure introduced in the design equation for an anchorage block with a rectangular anchorage plate. The validity of the introduced design equation was confirmed by comparison with AASHTO LRFD.

This study presents a numerical investigation on the sensitivity of electromechanical (EM) impedance responses to inner damaged concrete of a prestressed anchorage zone. Firstly, the Ottosen yield criterion is selected to simulate the plasticity behavior of the concrete anchorage zone under the compressive loading. Secondly, several overloading cases are selected to analyze inner damage formations in the concrete of the anchorage zone. Using a finite element (FE) model of the anchorage zone, the relationship between applied forces and stresses is analyzed to illustrate inner plasticity regions in concrete induced by the overloading. Thirdly, EM impedance responses of surface-mounted PZT (lead-zirconate-titanate) sensors are numerically acquired before and after concrete damage occurrence in the anchorage zone. The variation of impedance responses is estimated using the RMSD (root-mean-square-deviation) damage metric to quantify the sensitivity of the signals to inner damaged concrete. Lastly, a novel PZT skin, which can measure impedance signatures in predetermined frequency ranges, is designed for the anchorage zone to sensitively monitor the EM impedance signals of the inner damaged concrete. The feasibility of the proposed method is numerically evaluated for a series of damage cases of the anchorage zone. The results reveal that the proposed impedance-based method is promising for monitoring inner damaged concrete in anchorage zones.

In this paper, the prestressing order of tendons is studied to minimize a bursting force of an anchorage. The bursting forces is a primary factor of anchorage failures. The forces of the anchorage depend on the prestressing order and size of the tendons, if a lot of tendons are introduced to the anchorage. Many studies have been made to analyze the bursting force of the anchorage. However, the studies have been limited to the bursting forces of the anchorage having one or two tendons. PSC box girder bridges usually have a lot of tendons. And the difference of the bursting forces lies in the prestressing order of the tendons. As a result of the lack of studies on the prestressing order for the bridges, the order depends on the designer's intuition and experiences. It may be stated that this study should be useful for determining the reasonable prestressing order of tendons for the PSC box girder bridges.

This paper presents an experimental study to investigate the behavior of mechanical anchorage of reinforcing bars in concrete members. Three kinds of mechanical anchorage which are a kind of headed reinforcements are considered in this study. Total seven specimens were prepared to consider the effects of anchoring methods (Type A, Type B and Type C) and anchorage lengths of the reinforcing bars (14 $d_{b}$, 12 $d_{b}$, 9 $d_{b}$). Pullout tests conforming to ASTM were carried out to assess the effects of several variables on anchoring strength of bars. Based on the test results, it was concluded that the behavior of the specimen anchored by the mechanical anchorage with the anchor-age length of 12 $d_{b}$, is as good as, or better than that of the specimen anchored by 90-degree standard hook.rd hook.

In the post-tensioned concrete member, additional reinforcement is required to prevent failure in the anchorage zone. In this study, the details of reinforcement suitable for the anchorage zone of the post-tensioned concrete member using circular anchorage was proposed based on the experimental results. The tests were conducted with the compressive strength of concrete and reinforcement types as variables. The experimental results indicated that the additional reinforcement for the anchorage zone is required when the compressive strength of concrete is less than 17.5 MPa. U-shaped reinforcement shows most effective performance in terms of maximum strength and cracks patterns.

교정치료에 있어서 고정원의 조절은 매우 중요한 요소이며, 상악에서 특히 그러하다. 이를 얻기 위해 많은 노력을 해 왔으나 대부분이 환자의 협조에 대한 의존이 필수적이었기 때문에 고정원 보강에 대하여 확신할 수 없었다. 하지만 최근 skeletal anchorage를 이용하여 환자의 협조를 최소화하면서도 보다 효과적으로 고정원 보강을 할 수 있는 방법이 시행되고 있다. 또한 과거의 골 융합성 임프란트와 달리 미니 스크류는 구강 내의 어느 부위에나 식립할 수 있을 정도로 식립 부위의 제한성이 적다는 장점이 있다. 저자는 titanium miniscrew를 구개 정중부의 약간 측방에 식립하고, indirect active P.S.A.(Palatal skeletal anchorage)를 이용하여 치료한 결과 상악 구치부에서의 고정원 보강을 얻을 수가 있었다. 이 치료 결과로 보아 PSA는 상악 구치부의 고정원 보강 역할을 할 수 있을 것으로 생각되며. 또한 transpalatal arch system의 다양한 design을 응용한다면 효율적인 치아 이동을 하는데 많은 도움이 될 것으로 생각된다.

In this study, the pull-out behavior of a tunnel-type anchorage for suspension bridges was investigated using experimental tests and image processing analyses. The study focused on evaluating the initial failure behavior and failure mode of the tunnel-type anchorage. In order to evaluate the failure mode of tunnel-type anchorage, a series of scaled model tests were conducted based on the prototype anchorage of the Ulsan Grand Bridge. In the model tests, the anchorage body and surrounding rocks were fabricated using a gypsum mixture. The pull-out behavior was investigated under plane strain conditions. The results of the model tests demonstrate that the tunnel-type anchorage underwent a wedge-shaped failure. In addition, the failure mode changed according to the differences in the physical properties of the surrounding rock and the anchorage body and the size of the anchor plate. The size of the anchor plate was found to be an important parameter that determines the failure mode. However, the difference in physical properties between the surrounding rock and the anchorage body did not affect its size. In addition, this study analyzed the initial failure behavior of the tunnel-type anchorage through image analysis and confirmed that the failure was sequentially transferred from the inside of the tunnel to the surrounding rock according to the image analysis. The reasonable failure mode for the design of the tunnel-type anchorage should be wedge-type rather than pull-out type.

PSC box girder의 정착부 설계방법들을 비교해본 결과, 기존 시방서에 따른 설계방법에서는 다수의 정착구에 긴장력이 작용할 때 긴장력의 작용순서와 그 크기에 따른 응력의 중첩효과를 고려할 수 없는 단점을 가지고 있었고, 3차원 유한요소해석을 이용한 설계에서는 응력집중부와 응력흐름을 정확히 파악할 수는 있지만 부재의 단면력을 산정하기가 매우 번거롭고 까다롭다는 단점을 가진다. 그러나 strut-tie 모델을 이용한 설계법에서는 긴장력의 긴장순서에 따른 응력중첩효과를 고려할 수 있고 부재의 단면력의 산정 또한 매우 간편하여 긴장력의 도입순서에 의해 변화하는 응력의 흐름을 잘 파악하여 strut-tie로 구성된 트러스 부재들의 기하학적 조건을 만족하도록 유의한다면 정착부의 설계에 가장 적합한 설계방법이라 할 수 있다.

This study was conducted to propose an effective port operation method in terms of the design capacity of waiting anchorage by comparing the ratio and the number of waiting anchorage according to the port operation method of Busan New Port. For this, the Arena simulation program compared the rates of waiting vessels according to the application of the multi-user terminal, liner terminal and hybrid liner terminal operation methods. As a result, analysis suggested the necessary anchorage space can be reduced to about 18 % when using the multi-user terminal operation method and about 15.6 % when using the hybrid liner terminal operation method, as compared with the liner terminal operation method. Specifically, it was effective to apply the multi-user terminal operation method in terms of the anchorage capacity to be designated to Busan New Port. This study can apply to the designation of the new anchorage in the Busan New Port by reflecting the contents of the design of the anchorage in accordance with the port operation method.
