Since the concrete strength around the reinforcement rebar affects the tension stiffening, the tension stiffening effect of ultra high performance concrete on the concrete members reinforced by steel rebar is examined by testing the specimens with circular cross section with the length 850 mm reinforced by a steel rebar at the center of a specimen's cross section in this research. Conducting a tensile test on the specimens, the cracking behavior is evaluated and a curve with an exponential descending branch is obtained to explain the post-cracking zone. In addition, this paper proposes an equation for this branch and parameters of equation is obtained based on the ratio of cover thickness to rebar diameter (c/d) and reinforcement percentage (${\rho}$).

Hole flanging experiments are performed on flat circular plates with a hole in the center and the flangeability and fracture behaviors of TRIP steels and ferrite-Bainite duplex steels were examined. In the hole flanging, deformation by lip and petalling occurs when plates are struck by punches of various shapes and high circumferential strains induced in the target material cause radial cracking and the subsequent rotation of the affected plate material in a number of symmetric petals. In all cases, failure of the plate was due to lip fracture that results from multiple localized neckings that take place around the hole periphery where straining is most severe and a somewhat regular pattern was observed in a fracture shape. The neck characteristics in flange formation and the transition from the lip to petal mode at which fracture occurs were compared with two materials.

In the nuclear power plant, emergency core coolant system(ECCS) is furnished at reactor coolant system(RCS) in order to cool down high temperature water in case of emergency. However, in this coolant system, thermal stratification phenomenon can be occurred due to coolant leaking in the check valve. The thermal stratification produces excessive thermal stresses at the pipe wall so as to yield thermal fatigue crack(TFC) accident. In the present study, when the turbulence penetration occurs in the branch piping, the maximum temperature differences of fluid at the pipe cross-sections of the T-branch with thermal stratification are examine

This essay is a general review of the application of ultrasonic NDE techniques to the performance assessment and characterization of composite materials. A brief review of ultrasonic input-output characterization of a composite plate by shear waves is presented. A theoretical development of ultrasonic wave propagation in isotropic and anisotropic media excited, respectively, by a circular transducer and an oscillatory point source is summarized. Some experimental results are described in which ultrasonic velocity and attenuation measurements give insight into material degradation of fatigued composite laminates. Ultrasonic determination of the elastic constants of a composite plate and an experimental attempt at ultrasonic testing of an isotropic plate containing a crack are also included. A recent effort for the characterization of viscoelastic materials using the ultrasonic NDE technique is outlined. Finally, the reliability of ultrasonic NDE is briefly touched upon.

With the improvement of computer power and technology, fracture modelling by finite element methods has become a topic of extensive studies. However, fracture simulation much limited to an academic study of crack propagation with a fine mesh. Element deletion method is a useful tool for estimating damage due to accidental or extreme loads on structures, provided that an effective and realistic criterion is established for simulating the material failure and subsequent element deletion. In this study, ABAQUS/Explicit is used to simulate the material failure on the basis of experimental results by X. Huang et al. Through numerical experiments, we suggest a formulation to determine the failure strain associated with the size and thickness of removed elements.

Many military and commercial aging aircrafts flying beyond their design life may experience severe crack and corrosion damage, and thus lead to catastrophic failures. In this paper, were used in a finite element model to evaluate the effect of corrosion on the adhesive damage in bonded composite repair of aircraft structures. The damage zone theory was implemented in the finite element code in order to achieve this objective. In addition, the effect of the corrosion, on the repair efficiency. Four different patch shapes were chosen to analyze the adhesive damage: rectangular, trapezoidal, circular and elliptical. The modified damage zone theory was implemented in the FE code to evaluate the adhesive damage. The obtained results show that the adhesive damage localized on the level of corrosion and in the sides of patch, and the rectangular patch offers high safety it reduces considerably the risk of the adhesive failure.

In the present study an elastic-plastic strain analysis is carried out for fibrous composites by using numerical modeling. Application of homogeneous transversely-isotropic model was chosen based on problem solution of a square plate with a circular hole under uniaxial tension. The results obtained in this study correspond to the solution of fiber model trial problem, as well as to analytical solution. Further, numerical algorithm and software has been developed, based on simplified theory of small elastic strains for transversely-isotropic bodies, and FEM. The influence of holes and cracks on stress state of complicated configuration transversely-isotropic bodies has been studied. Strain curves and plasticity zones that are formed in vicinity of the concentrators has been provided. Numerical values of effective mechanical parameters calculated for unidirectional composites at different ratios of fiber volume content and matrix. Content volume proportions of fibers and matrix defined for fibrous composite material that enables to behave as elastic-plastic body or as a brittle material. The influences of the fibrous structure on stress concentration in vicinity of holes on boron/aluminum D16, used as an example.

The strut-and-tie method (STM) has been widely accepted and used as a rational approach for the design of disturbed regions ('D' regions) of reinforced concrete members such as in corbels and deep beams, where traditional flexure theory does not apply. This paper evaluates the applicability of the equilibrium based STM in strength predictions of deep beams (with rectangular and circular cross-section) and corbels using the available experiments in literature. STM is found to give fairly good results for corbel and deep beams. The failure modes of these deep members are also studied, and an optimum amount of distribution reinforcement is suggested to eliminate the premature diagonal splitting failure. A comparison with existing empirical and semi empirical methods also show that STM gives more reliable results. The nonlinear finite element analysis (NLFEA) of 50 deep beams and 20 corbels could capture the complete behaviour of deep members including crack pattern, failure load and failure load accurately.

철근콘크리트 교량에 대한 대부분의 내진설계기준들은 전체 교량 시스템의 붕괴를 방지하기 위한 성능보장설계를 암시적 또는 명시적으로 적용하고 있다. 이러한 개념 및 규정들을 명시하는 이유는 교량 전체 시스템에 설계지진하중이 작용하는 동안 철근콘크리트 교각들이 완전한 소성회전성능을 발휘할 때까지 구조적인 다른 구성요소들의 취성적인 파괴를 방지하기 위함이다. 이를 위해 철근콘크리트 교량에 대한 내진설계기준들에서는 취성적인 전단파괴를 피하도록 규정하고 있다. 성능보장의 중요한 요소 중의 하나가 교각의 연성거동을 보장하기 위한 전단강도가 충분히 확보되어야 하고 신뢰할 수 있어야 한다. 실험체 8개에 대하여 실험을 수행하였으며 모든 실험체에서 변위비 1.5%에서 다수의 휨-전단 균열이 발생되었고 최종단계까지 균열폭이 증가되었고 균열이 진전되었다. 휨-전단 균열의 각도는 부재 축과 $42^{\circ}{\sim}48^{\circ}$의 범위로 계측되었다. 본 연구에서는 실험에서 계측된 횡방향철근이 부담하는 전단강도에 대한 분석을 중심으로 하였다. 횡방향철근이 부담하는 전단강도, 축력 작용에 의한 전단강도, 콘크리트에 의한 전단강도 등 3요소에 대해 분석하였고 비교하였다. 실험체들의 콘크리트 응력은 도로 교설계기준의 응력한계를 초과하였다.

콘크리트 충전 강관에 대한 기존의 연구는 단일 압축상태, 휨모멘트 상태, 편심 압축력 상태의 연구만이 행해 졌을 뿐 압축력과 비틀림이 조합된 응력 상태에 대한 연구는 거의 이루어지지 않고 있다. 따라서 본 연구에서는 압축력과 비틀림을 받는 원형 CFT 부재의 거동에 대한 특성을 살펴보고 합리적인 해석법을 연구하였다. 원형 CFT부재가 압축력과 비틀림을 받을 경우의 압축 강도와 비틀림 강도를 결정하는데 중요 요소인 구속효과와 부착 응력에 의한 스파이럴 효과를 본 모델에 고려하였다. 이를 위하여 단일 압축응력을 받을 경우 원형 강관에 의해 구속된 콘크리트 코어에 대한 연구가 선행되었다. 또한 비틀림을 받을 경우는 비틀림에 의한 크랙이 콘크리트의 표면을 따라 발생하게 된다. 크랙 발생이후 비틀림을 계속 받게 되면 크랙은 나선형태로 진전되어 콘크리트가 솟아 나오려 하나 강관과 콘크리트 사이의 부착 응력에 의해 억제 되게 된다. 이러한 이유 때문에 코어 콘크리트는 압축응력을 받게 되고 강관만 인장응력을 받게 되는데 이러한 영향 효과를 실제적으로 고려하였다. 연구 결과는 기존의 실험결과와 비교하였으며 제안된 이론은 압축력과 비틀림을 받는 원형 CFT부재의 실제 거동을 합리적으로 설명하고 있다.
