The system of pores of autoclaved aerated concrete (AAC) is described by the so-called cherry-pit model, a random system of partially interpenetrating spheres. For the simulation of fracture processes, the solid phase is approximated by an irregular spatial network of beams obtained by means of the so-called radical tessellation with respect to the pore spheres. FE calculations using standard software (ANSYS) yield the strain energies of the beams. These energies are used as fracture criterion according to which highly loaded beams are considered as broken and are removed from the network. The paper investigates the relationship between mean fracture strength and microstructure for structures close to real AAC samples and virtual structures with particular geometrical properties.

The exact solution of strength of reinforced concrete RC columns subjected to axial compression combined with biaxial bending needs trial and adjustment procedure to find the depth and inclination of the neutral axis. Thus, approximate methods of analysis and design for biaxial bending are used in practice. Load contour interprets the relation of biaxial bending and equivalent uniaxial bending by u factor which is related to material properties and column shapes. The purpose of this study is to investigate the behavior of high strength RC columns subjected to the combined axial compression and biaxial bending. Fifteen test specimens with dimensions of 200mm$\times$200mm and 4-Dl3 longitudinal steel were examined. The variable of the test is compressive strength of concrete (350, 585, 650kgf/$cm^{2}$), compression load ratio (0.2$P_{o}}$, 0.35$P_{o}}$, 0.5$P_{o}}$), and inclination of loading ($\theta$=0, 22.5, $45^{\circ}$). Test results of coefficient $\alpha$ depending on the compressive strength of concrete are compared with ACI code.

PURPOSES : The purpose of the study was to examine dynamic features of concrete after mixing a little macro fiber with small aspect ratio and long length utilized for bridge, tunnel and shotcrete for tensile performance and crack control in domestic/overseas countries with cement concrete pavement mix. METHODS : Coarse aggregates with small aspect ratio and macro fibers with maximum length of approximately 32 mm are introduced in small quantities in the mix proportions of concrete pavement so as to prevent loss of the workability. Then, this study intends to evaluate the applicability of macro fibers in the mix proportions of concrete pavement by examining the basic construction performance, as well as the change of toughness, the equivalent bending strength and the flexural toughness index caused by compression, bending, tension and the flexural stress-displacement curve. RESULTS : As the results, in each kind of macro fiber, polyvinyl alcohol fiber and steel fiber displayed a good performance. CONCLUSIONS : In 0.2 and 0.3% of fiber contents, it is appeared that polyvinyl alcohol fiber has a large effect on improvement of tensile performance and steel fiber on improvement of deforming performance of bending stress.

콘크리트는 반취성 재료로서 우수한 압축력을 갖는 소재이나 인장력은 취약한 단점이 있다. 이러한 콘크리트의 단점을 개선하기 위한 섬유 보강 콘크리의 사용은 효과적인 인성강화에 대한 효과적인 방안이 될 수 있으며, 휨인성에 취약한 구조체에는 강섬유 보강 콘크리트를 사용함으로 성능을 개선하고 있다. 그러나 강섬유의 부식과 시공성 저하의 문제로 인해 대체 소재의 요구되고 있는 실정이다. 이에 본 연구에서는 확산성이 우수한 매크로 포타섬유를 사용한 콘크리트의 굳지 않은 콘크리트의 특성과 물리적 특성 및 건조수축 특성을 평가함으로 강섬유의 대체 가능성을 평가하고자 하였다. 실험 결과, 매크로 포타섬유는 강섬유 보강 콘크리트와 비교하였을 때 유동성 향상 및 역학적 성능이 우수한 것으로 나타났다. 매크로 포타 섬유를 사용한 콘크리트의 균열 저항성 부분에서도 강섬유 보강 콘크리트에 비하여 구조적인 균열과 건조 수축 저항성을 개선하는데 효과적인 것을 확인하였다.

가혹한 환경에 노출되는 콘크리트 교량바닥판에 대한 피해가 증가하면서 콘크리트 교량바닥판의 내구성 향상에 대한 요구가 증가하고 있다. 이에 따라 고성능 콘크리트에 대한 관심이 높아지고 있다. 최근, 새로운 광물질 혼화재로써 실리카흄과 같은 수준의 강도와 내구성 확보가 가능한 메타카올린이 높게 평가되고 있다. 이에 비해 국내의 메타카올린에 대한 연구 및 대체사용은 미진한 수준이며, 메타카올린 콘크리트를 교량바닥판에 적용하기 위한 검토도 매우 부족한 실정이다. 따라서 메타카올린 콘크리트를 교량바닥판에 적용하기 위해서는 장기적인 역학적 특성 및 교량바닥판에 요구되는 내구성에 대한 다양한 자료가 필요하다. 본 연구는 메타카올린 콘크리트를 적용한 교량바닥판의 장기적인 역학적 특성 및 내구성을 양생 재령에 따라 검토하는데 목적을 두었다. 역학적 특성은 압축강도 및 휨강도가 측정되었으며, 내구성의 경우는 건조수축, 염화물 저항성, 스케일링, 동결융해 저항성을 양생 재령에 따라 비교 평가하였다. 연구결과에 따르면, 메타카올린의 대체는 압축강도 및 휨강도 발현이 초기 및 장기 재령에서 우수하였다. 또한, 내구성 측면에서도 염화물 침투 저항성과 동결융해 저항성을 향상시켰다. 또한, 건조수축을 저감시키는 것으로 나타났다.

Concrete pipelines are the most efficient and safe means for gas and oil transportation over a long distance. The use of nano materials and nono-engineering can be considered for enhancing concrete pipelines properties. the tests show that $SiO_2$ nanoparticles can improve the mechanical behavior of concrete. Moreover, severe hazard for pipelines is seismic ground motion. Over the years, scientists have attempted to understand pipe behavior against earthquake most frequently via numerical modeling and simulation. Therefore, in this paper, the dynamic response of underwater nanocomposite submerged pipeline conveying fluid is studied. The structure is subjected to the dynamic loads caused by earthquake and the governing equations of the system are derived using mathematical model via Classic shell theory and Hamilton's principle. Navier-Stokes equation is employed to calculate the force due to the fluid in the pipe. As well, the effect of external fluid is modeled with an external force. Mori-Tanaka approach is used to estimate the equivalent material properties of the nanocomposite. 1978 Tabas earthquake in Iran is considered for modelling seismic load. The dynamic displacement of the structure is extracted using differential quadrature method (DQM) and Newmark method. The effects of different parameters such as $SiO_2$ nanoparticles volume percent, boundary conditions, thickness to radius ratios, length to radius ratios, internal and external fluid pressure and earthquake intensity are discussed on the seismic response of the structure. From results obtained in this paper, it can be found that the dynamic response of the pipe is increased in the presence of internal and external fluid. Furthermore, the use of $SiO_2$ nanoparticles in concrete pipeline reduces the displacement of the structure during an earthquake.

In order to investigate mechanical properties and load-bearing capacity of T-shaped Concrete-Filled Square Steel Tubular (TCFST) composite columns under eccentric axial load, three T-shaped composite columns were tested under eccentric compression. Experimental results show that failure mode of the columns under eccentric compression was bending buckling of the whole specimen, and mono column performs flexural buckling. Specimens behaved good ductility and load-bearing capacity. Nonlinear finite element analysis was also employed in this investigation. The failure mode, the load-displacement curve and the ultimate bearing capacity of the finite element analysis are in good agreement with the experimental ones. Based on eccentric compression test and parametric finite element analysis, the calculation formula for the equivalent slenderness ratio was proposed and the bearing capacity of TCFST composite columns under eccentric compression was calculated. Results of theoretical calculation, parametric finite element analysis and eccentric compression experiment accord well with each other, which indicates that the theoretical calculation method of the bearing capacity is advisable.

The aim of this paper is two-fold. First, we study the Chinea-Gonzalez class C₁₂ of almost contact metric manifolds and we discuss some fundamental properties. We show there is a one-to-one correspondence between C₁₂ and Kählerian structures. Secondly, we give some basic results for Riemannian curvature tensor of C₁₂-manifolds and then establish equivalent relations among 𝜑-sectional curvature. Concrete examples are given.
