Simple and efficient way of nonlinear analysis considering elasto-plastic large deformation is introduced to calculate the strength of ring-stiffened cylinears subject to combined load of axial compression and lateral pressure. Parametric study gives various collapse modes according to the combination ratio of axial compression and lateral pressure, interaction between axial compression and lateral pressure and imperfection sensitivity of ultimate strength.

In this paper an artificial neural network model is developed to estimate the unconfined compression strength of Deep Cement Mixing(DCM) treated soil. A database which consists of a number of unconfined compression test result compiled from 9 clay sites is used to train and test of the artificial neural network model. Developed neural network model requires water content of soil, unit weight of soil, passing percent of #200 sieve, weight of cement, w-c ratio as input variables. It is found that the developed artificial neural network model can predict more precise and reliable unconfined compression strength than the conventional empirical models.

The compression strength of corrugated fiberboard container for packaging the agricultural products rapidly decreases because of various environmental conditions during distribution of unitized products. Among various environmental conditions, the main factors affecting the compression strength of corrugated fiberboard are absorption of moisture, long-term accumulative load, and fatigue caused by shock and vibration. An estimated rate of damage for fruit during distribution is about from 30 to 40 percent owing to the shock and vibration. This study was carried out to characterize the durability of corrugated fiberboard container for packaging the fruit and vegetables under simulated transportation environment. The vibration test system was constructed to simulate the land transportation using truck. After the package with corrugated fiberboard container was vibrated by vibration test system at various experimental conditions, the compression test for the package was performed. The compression strength of corrugated fiberboard container decreased with loading weight and vibrating time. The multiple nonlinear regression equation for predicting the decreasing rate of compression strength of corrugated fiberboard containers were developed using four independent variables such as input acceleration level, input frequency, loading weight and vibrating time. The influence of loading weight on the decreasing rate of corrugated fiberboard container was larger than other variables.

This paper firstly proposed high performance composite columns for cold-region infrastructures using ultra-high performance concrete (UHPC) and ultra-high strength steel (UHSS) Q960E. Then, 24 square UHPC-filled UHSS tubes (UHSTCs) at low temperatures of -80, -60, -30, and 30℃ were performed under axial loads. The key influencing parameters on axial compression performance of UHSS were studied, i.e., temperature level and UHSS-tube wall thickness (t). In addition, mechanical properties of Q960E at low temperatures were also studied. Test results revealed low temperatures improved the yield/ultimate strength of Q960E. Axial compression tests on UHSTCs revealed that the dropping environmental temperature increased the compression strength and stiffness, but compromised the ductility of UHSTCs; increasing t significantly increased the strength, stiffness, and ductility of UHSTCs. This study developed numerical and theoretical models to reproduce axial compression performances of UHSTCs at low temperatures. Validations against 24 tests proved that both two methods provided reasonable simulations on axial compression performance of UHSTCs. Finally, simplified theoretical models (STMs) and modified prediction equations in AISC 360, ACI 318, and Eurocode 4 were developed to estimate the axial load capacity of UHSTCs at low temperatures.

In current European Standard EN 1993, the moment-rotation characteristics of beam-to-column joints made from steel with a yield stress > 460MPa are obtained from elastic design procedures. The strength of the joint basic components, such as the column web subject to local transverse compression, is thus limited to the yield resistance rather than the plastic resistance. With the recent developments of higher strength steel grades, the need for these restrictions should be revisited. However, as the strength of the steel is increased, the buckling characteristics become more significant and thus instability phenomena may govern the design. This paper summarizes a comprehensive set of finite element parametric studies pertaining to the strength behaviour of high-strength steel unstiffened I-columns in transverse compression. The paper outlines the implementation and validation of a three-dimensional finite element model and presents the relevant numerical test results. The finite element predictions are evaluated against the strength values anticipated by the EN 1993 for conventional steel columns and recommendations are made for revising the specifications.

좁은 면적을 단기간에 개량시킬 수 있는 장점이 있는 그라우팅 공법은 지반의 특성과 지하수위 등에 따라 주입 효과의 차이가 있다. 특히 투수성이 큰 지반에서는 시간 경과에 따라서 용탈현상이 발생하여 강도저하 및 차수 성능이 저하되어 품질에 문제가 생길 수 있다. 최근 이와 같은 문제점을 해결하기 위해 초기강도 확보 및 용탈 방지와 동시에 균열 자기치유 특성을 가지는 SSG가 개발되었다. 이 연구에서는 두 가지 양생조건에 대해 SSG의 일축압축강도 시험을 수행하여 양생기간에 따른 일축압축 강도를 파악하였다. 또한 SSG와 기존의 LW 및 SGR의 일축압축강도와 비교하였다. 연구 결과, SSG가 상온 양생 및 저온 양생 모두에서 강도가 크게 측정되었으며, 초기 강도도 상대적으로 매우 우수한 것으로 나타났다.

현행 기준식에 따르면 초고강도 콘크리트에서는 철근 인장이음길이보다 압축이음길이가 더 길어지는 현상 이 발생된다. 횡보강근의 영향을 반영하면 이러한 경향은 더욱 심화된다. 실제 구조물에서 반드시 존재하는 횡보강근과 철근 지름의 영향을 40, 60 MPa 콘크리트에 대한 압축이음 실험을 통해 강도와 거동 특성을 분석하였다. 지름 22, 29 mm 에 대한 실험 결과 철근 지름의 영향은 없는 것으로 나타났다. 가는 지름의 철근에서는 이음강도의 증진이 기대될 수 있으나, 압축철근에는 주로 큰 지름의 철근이 사용되므로 압축이음에서는 철근 지름의 효과를 고려할 필요가 없을 것 으로 판단된다. 횡보강근이 있는 압축이음강도는 현행 설계기준과 비교할 때 100% 이상 크므로 횡보강근을 고려한 새 로운 설계기준식의 정립이 필요하다. 지압은 이음 단부에 배근된 횡보강근에 의해서만 강도가 향상되며, 이음구간에 배 근된 횡보강근에는 무관하다. 횡보강근량이 많을수록 부착에 의해 발현되는 강도는 거의 선형적으로 증가하며, 이음단 부에만 횡보강근을 배근해도 부착강도가 6% 향상되었다. 횡보강근이 배근된 경우 부착에 의해 발현되는 강도는 인장이 음에 비해 동등하거나 더 낮아지므로, 인장이음에 비해 압축이음의 강도 증진은 단부 지압 효과로만 설명될 수 있다.

The purpose of this study is to investigate the mechanical characteristics of plain and steel fiber high strength concrete under uniaxial and biaxial loading condition. A number of plain and steel fiber high strength concrete cubes having 28 days compressive strength of 82.7Mpa (12,000psi) were made and tested. Four principal compression stress ratios, and four fiber concentrations were selected as major test variables. From test results, it is shown that confinement stress in minor stress direction has pronounced effect on the strength and deformational behavior. Both of the stiffness and ultimate strength of the plain and fiber high strength concrete increased. The maximum increase of ultimate strength occurred at biaxial stress ratio of 0.5 in the plain high strength concrete and the value were recorded 30 percent over than the strength under uniaxial condition. The failure modes of plain high strength concrete under uniaxial compression were shown as splitting type of failure but steel fiber concrete specimens under biaxial condition showed shear type failure.

Purpose: The aim of this preliminary study was to use hand function tests to Hand dexterity levels provided by the type of compression garment and compression bandages in asymptomatic subjects and to collect baseline data for the comparison of hand functions in the patients with chronic arm lymphedema. Methods: The subjects of this study were 32 healthy volunteer female with a mean age of 45.8 years. Grip strength and hand functions were tested in three conditions-no compression, compression garment, and compression bandages-using the nine-hole peg test (NHPT), the box and block test (B&BT), Minnesota Manual Dexterity test (MMDT), and the hand-held Jamar dynamometer. Results: The grip strength was significantly low in the bandage condition (p<0.05). The performance in both compression groups (i.e., bandage and compression garment) decreased as the thickness of the compression material increased (p<0.05). Conclusion: The findings of this study suggest that grip strength and hand function scores are influenced by the characteristics of the compression applied. Future study is needed to determine the level of hand function between patients with chronic arm lymphedema and healthy individuals.

압축형 앵커의 설계를 위해서는 세가지의 조건이 고려되어져야 한다. 그 첫째가 주면마찰저항력이고, 둘째가 강선의 인장강도이고, 셋째가 그라우트의 압축강도이다. 특히, 세가지 조건 중에서도 그라우트의 압축강도는 압축형 앵커의 인발력 산정에 있어서 가장 중요한 매개변수가 된다. 압축형 앵커가 지중에서 인발될 때, 그라우트의 압축강도는 지반 구속압에 의해 증가하게 된다. 이 지반 구속압은 정지 토압에 의한 구속압과 "포아송 효과"라고 부르는 횡방향 팽창에 의해 증가되는 구속압으로 이루어져 있다. 본 논문에서는 압축형 앵커인 SSC 앵커의 내하체 압축시험을 통해 앵커 설계법을 제안하고, 이 설계법을 사용하여 앵커의 인발저항력을 계산하는 컴퓨터 프로그램을 개발하였다.그램을 개발하였다.
