The braced tube frame system, a combination of perimeter frame and bracing frame, is one of the systems used in tall buildings. Due to the implementation of this system in tall buildings and the high rigidity resulting from the use of general bracing, providing proper ductility while maintaining the strength of the structure when exposing to lateral forces is essential. Also, the high stress at the connection of the beam to the column may cause a sudden failure in the region before reaching the required ductility. The use of Reduced Beam Section connection (RBS connection) by focusing stress in a region away from beam to column connection is a suitable solution to the problem. Because of the fact that RBS connections are usually used in moment frames and not tested in tall buildings with braced tube frames, they should be investigated. Therefore, in this research, three tall buildings in height ranges of 20, 25 and 30 floors were modeled and designed by SAP2000 software, and then a frame in each building was modeled in PERFORM-3D software under two RBS-free system and RBS-based system. Nonlinear time history dynamic analysis is used for each frame under Manjil, Tabas and Northridge excitations. The results of the Comparison between RBS-free and RBS-based systems show that the RBS connections increased the absorbed energy level by reducing the stiffness and increasing the ductility in the beams and structural system. Also, by increasing the involvement of the beams in absorbing energy, the columns and braces absorb less energy.

본 논문에서는 습식스프레이 공법에 의하여 타설되는 고인성 섬유보강 모르타르(ECC)을 구조물의 보수에 적용함으로써 구조물의 내구성을 증진시키는 효과에 대하여 연구하였다. 이를 위하여 굳지않은 상태에서는 스프레이 공정에 적합한 유동특성을 갖고 있으면서, 굳은 후에는 인장변형경화거동을 나타내는 ECC를 스프레이 공법으로 타설하여 시험체를 제작하여 실험하였다. 실험 결과, 스프레이된 ECC의 역학적 특성(인장 및 휨거동)이 일반적인 타설법에 의하여 제작된 ECC와 거의 일치하는 것으로 나타났으며, 이 때에 ECC의 균열폭은 평균 30${\mu}m$로 제어되었다. 구콘크리트/ECC 합성보의 에너지 흡수능력은 구콘크리트/상용 스프레이 모르타르(PM) 합성보에 비하여 매우 우수한 것으로 나타났으며, 경계면의 부착성능도 양호한 것으로 평가되었다. ECC 고유의 균열제어능력과 더불어 보수된 부재(구콘크리트/ECC 합성보)의 탁월한 휨변형능력, 에너지 흡수능력 등은 구조물의 내구성을 증진하는데 큰 이점으로 작용하게 될 것이다.

The electrode contact poling is one of the efficient tools to induce a stable polar order of nonlinear optical (NLO) chromophores in the solid film. Self-assembled NLO chromophores with high electro-optic (E-O) activities were utilized for quantitative determination of the chromophore order induced under contact poling by spectroscopic changes. We found that NLO chromophores rarely decompose under the high electric field during contact poling. The absorption spectra were de-convoluted into a sum of Gaussian components to separate energy transitions for a binary composite system which contains a secondary guest chromophore AJC146 in the self-assembled chromophore HDFD. Poling efficiency was significantly improved in the binary system compared to the individual components.

The buckling-restrained braced frames with eccentric configurations (BRBF-Es) exhibit stable cyclic behavior and possess a high energy absorption capacity. Additionally, they offer architectural advantages for incorporating openings, much like Eccentrically Braced Frames (EBFs). However, studies have indicated that significant residual drifts occur in this system when subjected to earthquakes at the Maximum Considered Earthquake (MCE) hazard level. Consequently, in order to mitigate these residual drifts, it is recommended to employ self-centering systems alongside the BRBF-E system. In our current research, we propose the utilization of the Direct Displacement-Based Seismic Design method to determine the design base shear for a hybrid system that combines BRBF with an eccentric configuration and a self-centering frame. Furthermore, we present a methodology for designing the individual components of this composite system. To assess the effectiveness of this design approach, we designed 3-, 6-, and 9-story buildings equipped with the BRBF-E-SCF system and developed finite element models. These models were subjected to two sets of ground motions representing the Maximum Considered Earthquake (MCE) and Design Basis Earthquake (DBE) seismic hazard levels. The results of our study reveal that although the combined system requires a higher amount of steel material compared to the BRBF-E system, it substantially reduces residual drift. Furthermore, the combined system demonstrates satisfactory performance in terms of story drift and ductility demand.

Fully ceramic micro encapsulated (FCM) nuclear fuel is a concept recently proposed for enhancing the stability of nuclear fuel. FCM nuclear fuel consists of tristructural-isotropic (TRISO) fuel particles within a SiC matrix. Each TRISO fuel particle is composed of a $UO_2$ kernel and a PyC/SiC/PyC tri-layer which protects the kernel. The SiC ceramic matrix is created by sintering. In this FCM fuel concept, fission products are protected twice, by the TRISO coating layer and by the SiC ceramic. The SiC ceramic has proven attractive for fuel applications owing to its low neutron-absorption cross-section, excellent irradiation resistivity, and high thermal conductivity. In this study, a SiC-matrix composite containing TRISO particles was sintered by hot pressing with $Al_2O_3-Y_2O_3$ additive system. Various sintering conditions were investigated to obtain a relative density greater than 95%. The internal distribution of TRISO particles within the SiC-matrix composite was observed using an x-ray radiograph. The fracture of the TRISO particles was investigated by means of analysis of the cross-section of the SiC-matrix composite.

CFRP composite laminates are widely used as structural materials for airplanes, automobile and aerospace vehicles because of their high strength and stiffness. This study aims to examine an effect of curvature on the penetration fracture characteristic of an orthotropic composite laminated shell. For the purpose, we manufactured orthotropic CFRP shell specimen with different curvatures, and conducted a penetration test using an air-gun. Those specimens were prepared to varied curvature radius(${\infty}$, 200mm, 150mm and 100mm)and were stacked to $[O^{\circ}{_3}/90^{\circ}{_3}]_s$. When the specimen is subjected to transverse impact by a steel sphere(${\Phi}10$), the velocity of steel sphere was measured both before and after impact by determining the time for it to pass two ball-screen sensors located a known distance apart. As the curvature increases, the absorption energy and the critical penetration energy increased linearly because the resistance to the bending moment. Patterns of cracks caused by the penetration of CFRP laminated shells included fiber breakage, lamina fracture, matrix crack interlaminar crack and intralaminar crack.

In the areas highly exposed to earthquakes, concrete-filled steel tube columns (CFSTCs) are known to provide superior structural aspects such as (i) high strength for good seismic performance (ii) high ductility (iii) enhanced energy absorption (iv) confining pressure to concrete, (v) high section modulus, etc. Numerous studies were reported on behavior of CFSTCs under axial compression loadings. This paper presents an analytical model to predict ultimate load capacity of CFSTCs with circular sections under axial load by using multivariate adaptive regression splines (MARS). MARS is a nonlinear and non-parametric regression methodology. After careful study of literature, 150 comprehensive experimental data presented in the previous studies were examined to prepare a data set and the dependent variables such as geometrical and mechanical properties of circular CFST system have been identified. Basically, MARS model establishes a relation between predictors and dependent variables. Separate regression lines can be formed through the concept of divide and conquers strategy. About 70% of the consolidated data has been used for development of model and the rest of the data has been used for validation of the model. Proper care has been taken such that the input data consists of all ranges of variables. From the studies, it is noted that the predicted ultimate axial load capacity of CFSTCs is found to match with the corresponding experimental observations of literature.

This study proposes a joint model consisting of different types of members as a new structural system, and then investigates the resulting structural behavior. The joint model consists of a concrete-filled steel tube column (CFT) together with a steel reinforced concrete at the end plus reinforced concrete beam at the center. For comparison, two other joint models were designed, that are, a CPT with a reinforced concrete beam, and a CFT with a steel reinforced concrete at the end plus steel concrete beam at the center, then their joint capacity and rigidity, energy absorption capacity, etc., were all investigated. From the results, the CFT column with a steel reinforced concrete at the end plus steel concrete beam at the center was outstanding in terms of its capacity and rigidity. The results of this analysis demonstrate that an adequate connection type and reinforcement method with different materials of increasing the rigidity, thereby producing a capacity improvement along with protection from pre-fractures.

To protect a satellite and electronic equipment from the acoustic load generated by rocket propulsion system, many launch vehicle use acoustic blanket. Acoustic load is main source of random vibration working on the payload. Most high frequency region of the acoustic loads is reduced by payload fairing skins and acoustic blanket, but low frequency region is not. In order to reduce acoustic load of low frequency region, we designed array resonator panel which was made of composite materials. Insertion loss capacity of the payload fairing with acoustic blanket was verified from PLF acoustic test in the acoustic chamber.
