A problem formulation and solution methodology for design optimization of laminated thin-walled composite beams of generic section is presented. Objective functions and constraint equations are given in the form of beam stiffness. For two different problems one for open section and the other for closed section, the objective function considered is bending stiffness about x-axis. Depending upon the case, one can consider bending, torsional and axial stiffnesses. The different search and optimization algorithm, known as Evolution Strategies (ES) has been applied to find the optimal fibre orientation of composite laminates. A multi-level optimization approach is also implemented by narrowing down the size of search space for individual design variables in each successive level of optimization process. The numerical results presented demonstrate the computational advantage of the proposed method "Evolution strategies" which become pronounced to solve optimization of thin-walled composite beams of generic section.

This paper presents the results of an experimental investigation on the compressive strength of small scale concentrically axially loaded fiber-reinforced polymer (FRP) confined plain concrete columns, with cylinder concrete strength 19 MPa. For columns with circular (150-mm diameter) and square (150-mm side) cross sections wrapped with glass- and carbon-FRP sheets (GFRP and CFRP, respectively) applied with dry lay-up the effect of different jacket schemes and different overlap configurations on the confined characteristics is investigated. Test results indicate that the most cost effective jacket configuration among those tested is for one layer of CFRP, for both types of sections. In square sections the location of the lap length, either in the corner or along the side, does not seem to affect the confined performance. Furthermore, in circular sections, the presence of an extra wrap with FRP fibers parallel to the column's axis enhances the concrete strength proportionally to the axial rigidity of the FRP jacket. The recorded strains and the distributions of lateral confining pressures are discussed. Existing design equations are used to assess the lateral confining stresses and the confined concrete strength making use of the measured hoop strains.

Natural convection in the annulus between concentric inclined cylinders has been studied by the numerical analysis. Governing equations are numerically solved by means of successive over-relaxation methods for a range in orientation from horizontal to vertical. It is found that flow patterns can also be observed the co-axial double spiral. As the angle of inclination is increased, the center of the eddy is shifted into the lower part of annulus and flow structure is apparently changed. In the present study, the maximum local Nusselt numbers for the inner and outer walls at the vertical cylinder increase more than those at the horizontal cylinder by 71%, 42% respectively. Consequently the effect of inclination on the heat transfer is considerably large.

주입액의 점성도와 응력상태에 따른 균열전파 특성을 분석하기 위해 실험실 규모의 수압파쇄시험을 실시하였다. 시험에 사용된 시료는 시멘트 몰탈을 사용하여 제작되었으며, 각 변의 길이가 20 cm인 정육면체 형태이다. 제작된 시료는 최대강도를 갖기 위해 수중에서 약 1달간 양생과정을 거쳤다. 독립적인 가압시스템을 가지고 있는 진삼축압축장치로 시료에 압력을 가하여, 실제의 지반에서 작용하는 원위치응력 상태를 재현하였다. 시추 환경 재현을 위해 시료에 소형 시추공을 천공한 후, 일정한 주입속도로 수압파쇄시험을 실시하였다. 수압파쇄시험 과정에서 시추공에 주입된 유체의 압력을 실시간으로 측정하였으며, 동시에 미소파괴음(AE) 신호를 측정하였다. 수압파쇄시험의 모든 과정이 끝난 후 생성된 균열의 형태를 육안으로 관찰하였다. 일차파쇄압력은 주입액의 점성도 증가에 따라 지수형태를 보이며 증가하였다. 수압파쇄시험으로 인해 생성된 균열의 형태는 최대주응력과 최소주응력의 차이인 편차응력의 크기에 따라 서로 다른 양상을 보였다. 낮은 편차응력의 조건에서는 단일의 균열이 아닌 다중 균열이 생성되거나, 균열 성장과정에서 방향이 휘어지는 경향을 보였고, 이에 반해 높은 편차응력의 조건에서 생성된 균열은 단일 면상의 균열이 발생하였다. AE 분석에서도 편차응력이 클수록 미세균열이 단일 면상으로 집중되어 발생되는 경향을 보였다. 이러한 연구결과는 수압파쇄 방법을 이용한 암반파쇄에서 편차응력이 클 때보다 작을 때 더 복잡한 균열이 발생된다는 것을 보여준다. 따라서 셰일가스를 개발할 때 생산량을 높이기 위해서는 복잡한 균열을 발생시킬 수 있는 편차응력이 작은 조건에서 수압파쇄가 적용되는 것이 효과적일 것으로 판단된다.

합성 박스형 교량의 비선형 온도분포로부터 유발되는 열응답(thermal response)은 여러 변수들의 영향을 받는다( 기상조건, 재료상수, 교량의 위치 및 방향, 단면형상 등). 본 논문에서는 계절, 교량의 위치 및 방향, 단면형상 그리고 몇 가지 재료특성치의 변화가 합성 박스형 교량의 축변형 곡률 및 응력에 미치는 영향 파악을 위해 매개변수해석을 수행하였으며, 이 해석을 수행하기 위한 2차원 시간 종속적 유한요소모델에 대해 간략히 언급하였다. 먼저, 매개변수들이 하루동안의 곡률 변화에 미치는 영향에 대해 고려하고, 최대 곡률을 나타내는 시간의 합성 박스형 단면의 은도 및 응력분포에 미치는 영향에 대해 고려하였다. 최종적으로, 이 매개변수들의 변화가 온도에의한 축변형, 곡률 및 응력의 일최대값에 미치는 영향에 대해 고려하였다. 온도에의한 영향은 경우에따라서는 사하중이나 활하중이 구조물에 주는 영향만큼 클 수 있고 또한 강합성교의 설계시 바닥판 콘크리트 슬래브와 강재들보와의 온도차를 $10^{\circ}C$로 가정하고, 동시에 온도의 분포가 콘크리트 슬래브단면과 강재들보단면에서 일정하다고 가정하고 구한 온도응력은 실제 온도하중의 영향을 과소평가할 수 있다.

Once-through helically coiled steam generator tubes subjected to external pressure are of interest because of their application to advanced small- and medium-sized integral reactors, in which a primary coolant with a relatively higher pressure flows outside the tubes, while secondary water with a relatively lower pressure flows inside the tubes. Another notable point is that the values of the mean radius to thickness ratio of these steam generator tubes are very small, which means that a thick-walled cylinder is employed for these steam generator tubes. In the present paper, the maximum allowable pressure of helically coiled and thick-walled steam generator tubes with through-wall cracks under external pressure is investigated based on a detailed nonlinear three-dimensional finite element analysis. In terms of the crack orientation, either circumferential or axial through-wall cracks are considered. In particular, in order to quantify the effect of the crack location on the maximum external pressure, these cracks are assumed to be located in the intrados, extrados, and flank of helically coiled cylinders. Moreover, an evaluation is also made of how the maximum external pressure is affected by the ovality, which might be inherently induced during the tube coiling process used to fabricate the helically coiled steam generator tubes.

This study investigated the effects of the processing number of multi-axial diagonal forging (MADF) on the microstructural changes of OFC fabricated by MADF processes. The as-extruded OFC was cut to $25mm^3$ cube for the MADF processes. The MADF process consists of plane forging with a thickness reduction of 30% and diagonal forging with a diagonal forging angle of $135^{\circ}$. In order to analyze the microstructural evolutions according to the number of repetitions, 1, 2, 3 and 4 cycles of the MADF process were performed. OFC specimens were successfully deformed without surface cracking for up to 4 cycles of MADF. The grain size, average misorientation and average grain orientation spread (GOS) of MADF processed materials were analyzed using EBSD technique and their Vicker's hardness were also measured. The results showed that MADF process effectively refined the microstructure of OFC with initial average grain size of $84.2{\mu}m$. The average grain sizes of specimens MADF processed for 1, 2, 3, 4 cycles were refined to be $8.5{\mu}m$, $2.2{\mu}m$, $1.5{\mu}m$, $1.1{\mu}m$, respectively. The grain refinement seemed to be saturated when OFC was MADF processed over 2 cycles. In the case of specimens subjected to two or more cycles of MADF, the degree of decrease in average grain size was drastically reduced as the number of cycles increased due to softening phenomena such as dynamic recovery or dynamic recrystallization during processing. The degree of increase in average Vicker's hardness was also dramatically reduced as the number of cycles increased due to the same reason.

This study investigates the effects of multi-axial diagonal forging (MADF) processing number on the microstructures of AA1100 fabricated using MADF processes. The cast AA1100 was annealed at $400^{\circ}C$ for 3hrs in $N_2$ atmosphere and cut into $25mm^3$ cubes for the MADF processes. The MADF process consist of plane forging with a thickness reduction of 30% and a diagonal forging with a diagonal forging angle of 135 degrees. In order to analyze the microstructural variations based on the number of repetitions, 1, 2, 3 and 4 cycles of the MADF process were performed. AA1100 specimens were successfully deformed without cracking of the surface for up to 4 cycles of MADF. The grain size, average misorientation and average grain orientation spread (GOS) of MADF processed materials were analyzed using EBSD technique. The results showed that MADF process effectively refined the microstructure of AA1100 with an initial average grain size of $337.4{\mu}m$. The average grain sizes of specimens which were MADF processed for 2, 3, 4 cycles were refined to be $1.9{\mu}m$, $1.6{\mu}m$, $1.4{\mu}m$, respectively. The grain refinement appeared saturated when AA1100 got MADF processed over 2 cycles. When the specimen was subjected to two or more cycles of MADF, the degree of decrease in the average grain size drastically decreased with an increase in the number of cycle due to the softening phenomena such as dynamic recovery or dynamic recrystallization during processing.

본 연구에서는 다짐 재료의 강도특성에 나타나는 이방성과 그 정도를 명확히 밝히기 위해 다짐 재료로 널리 사용되는 화강풍화토를 이용해 포화, 불포화 상태에서 삼축압축시험을 실시했다. 공시체는 다짐도 $D_c$=90%가 되도록 다짐한 후 ${\sigma}_1$ 방향과 퇴적면이 이루는 각도로 정의되는 ${\delta}$가 $0^{\circ}C$, $45^{\circ}C$, $90^{\circ}C$가 되도록 제작되었다. 실험결과, 불포화토의 전단강도에 미치는 흡입력(suction)의 기여율에는 ${\delta}$ 의존성이 확인되지 않았고, 다짐재료의 전단강도에 나타나는 이방성은 포화시보다 불포화시에 현저히 나타나는 것으로 평가되었다. 또한 실험을 통해 도출된 결과를 이용해, ${\sigma}_1$ 방향과 퇴적면과 이루는 각도 ${\delta}$가 서로 다른 불포화토의 전단강도를 간단히 추정할 수 있는 방법을 제안하였다.
