  • The paper presents quasi-static numerical simulations of the behaviour of short reinforced concrete beams without shear reinforcement under mixed shear-tension failure using the FEM and four various constitutive continuum models for concrete. First, an isotropic elasto-plastic model with a Drucker-Prager criterion defined in compression and with a Rankine criterion defined in tension was used. Next, an anisotropic smeared crack and isotropic damage model were applied. Finally, an elasto-plastic-damage model was used. To ensure mesh-independent FE results, to describe strain localization in concrete and to capture a deterministic size effect, all models were enhanced in a softening regime by a characteristic length of micro-structure by means of a non-local theory. Bond-slip between concrete and reinforcement was considered. The numerical results were directly compared with the corresponding laboratory tests performed by Walraven and Lehwalter (1994). The advantages and disadvantages of enhanced models to model the reinforced concrete behaviour were outlined.

  • In this work, a novel reliability approach for combined high and low cycle fatigue (CCF) estimation is developed by combining active learning strategy with least squares support vector machines (LS-SVM) (named as ALS-SVM) surrogate model to address the multi-resources uncertainties, including working loads, material properties and model itself. Initially, a new active learner function combining LS-SVM approach with Monte Carlo simulation (MCS) is presented to improve computational efficiency with fewer calls to the performance function. To consider the uncertainty of surrogate model at candidate sample points, the learning function employs k-fold cross validation method and introduces the predicted variance to sequentially select sampling. Following that, low cycle fatigue (LCF) loads and high cycle fatigue (HCF) loads are firstly estimated based on the training samples extracted from finite element (FE) simulations, and their simulated responses together with the sample points of model parameters in Coffin-Manson formula are selected as the MC samples to establish ALS-SVM model. In this analysis, the MC samples are substituted to predict the CCF reliability of turbine blades by using the built ALS-SVM model. Through the comparison of the two approaches, it is indicated that the reliability model by linear cumulative damage rule provides a non-conservative result compared with that by the proposed one. In addition, the results demonstrate that ALS-SVM is an effective analysis method holding high computational efficiency with small training samples to gain accurate fatigue reliability.

  • Hygroexpansion of wood is a known and undesired characteristic in civil engineering. When wood is exposed to changing environmental humidity, it adsorbs or desorbs moisture and warps. The resulting distortions or - at restrained conditions - cracks are a major concern in timber engineering. We herein present a multiscale model for prediction of the macroscopic hygroexpansion behavior of individual pieces of softwood from their microstructure, demonstrated for spruce. By applying poromicromechanics, we establish a link between the swelling pressure, driving the hygroexpansion of wood at the nanoscale, and the resulting macroscopic dimensional changes. The model comprises six homogenization steps, which are performed by means of continuum micromechanics, the unit cell method and laminate theory, all formulated in a poromechanical framework. Model predictions for elastic properties of wood as functions of the moisture content closely approach corresponding experimental data. As for the hygroexpansion behavior, the swelling pressure has to be back-calculated from macroscopic hygroexpansion data. The good reproduction of the anisotropy of wood hygroexpansion, based on only a single scalar calibration parameter, underlines the suitability of the model. The multiscale model constitutes a valuable tool for studying the effect of microstructural features on the macroscopic behavior and for assessing the hygroexpansion behavior at smaller length scales, which are inaccessible to experiments. The model predictions deliver input parameters for the analysis of timber at the structural scale, therewith enabling to optimize the use of timber and to prevent moisture-induced damage or failure.

  • The paper presents experimental and numerical investigations of prefabricated composite structural building reinforced concrete slabs with the insulating material for a residential building construction. The building slabs were composed of concrete and expanded polystyrene. In experiments, the slabs in the full-scale 1:1 were subjected to vertical concentrated loads and failed along a diagonal shear crack. The experiments were numerically evaluated using the finite element method based on two different constitutive continuum models for concrete. First, an elasto-plastic model with the Drucker-Prager criterion defined in compression and with the Rankine criterion defined in tension was used. Second, a coupled elasto-plastic-damage formulation based on the strain equivalence hypothesis was used. In order to describe strain localization in concrete, both models were enhanced in the softening regime by a characteristic length of micro-structure by means of a non-local theory. Attention was paid to the formation of critical diagonal shear crack which was a failure precursor.

  • In this work we present an upscaling technique for multi-scale computations based on a stochastic model calibration technique. We consider a coarse-scale continuum material model described in the framework of generalized standard materials. The model parameters are considered uncertain, and are determined in a Bayesian framework for the given fine scale data in a form of stored energy and dissipation potential. The proposed stochastic upscaling approach is independent w.r.t. the choice of models on coarse and fine scales. Simple numerical examples are shown to demonstrate the ability of the proposed approach to calibrate coarse scale elastic and inelastic material parameters.

  • Initiation and growth of delamination is a great concern of designers of composite structures. Interface elements with de-cohesive constitutive law in the content of continuum damage mechanics can be used to predict initiation and growth of delamination in single and mixed mode conditions. In this paper, an interface element based on the cohesive zone method has been developed to simulate delaminatoin growth of post-buckled laminate under fatigue loading. The model was programmed as the user element and user material by the "User Programmable Features" in ANSYS finite element software. The interface element is a three-dimensional 20 node brick with small thickness. Because of mixed-mode condition of stress field at the delamination-front of post-buckled laminates, a mixed-mode bilinear constitutive law has been used as user material in this model. The constitutive law of interface element has been verified by modelling of a single element. A composite laminate with initial delamination under quasi-static compressive Loading available from literature has been remodeled with the present approach. Moreover, it will be shown that, the closer the delamination to the free surface of laminate, the slower the delamination growth under compressive fatigue loading. The effects of laminate configuration on delamination growth are also investigated.

  • 응력 증가에 의한 취성 암석의 손상은 미세균열의 개시로부터 시작하여 각 개별 균열들의 전파 및 결합에 의해 거시적인 파괴면을 발생시킨다. 전통적으로 암반의 손상 및 파괴현상을 설명하기 위해 거시적인 파괴 기준이나 탄소성 모델과 같은 연속체적인 접근법이 주류를 이루어왔다. 하지만 개별적인 균열들의 개시와 전락 과정을 명시적으로 고려할 수 있다면 현상론적인 관점에서 보다 실제에 가까운 암석 손상 및 파괴 과정을 재현할 수 있을 것이다. 본 연구에서는 암석의 균열 진전 모델링을 위해 개발된 경계요소 코드인 FRACOD를 이용하여 암석의 손상 및 파괴 과정을 모사한 결과를 제시한다. 수치일축압축시험을 통해 개발된 모델의 적정성을 검증하고 암반의 치수효과를 고려한 현실적인 암석 파괴 과정을 재현하였다. 또한 이러한 접근법의 적용 사례로서, 실제 굴착이 진행중인 심부 수갱 암반 주변에서 심도와 암반 특성에 따라 균열 진전과 이에 따른 암반 손상의 범위를 예측한 결과를 제시하였다. 이 접근법은 취성도가 큰 암반에서 발생하는 안정성 문제에 대한 공학적인 해법을 찾는데 기여를 할 수 있을 것으로 기대된다.

  • 발파압력이 발파공 주위 암반에 발생시키는 암반손상을 연속체 손상역학과 사용자 부프로그램을 이용한 수치해석을 통하여 분석하였다. 암반의 이방성 특성을 적용한 이방성 발파압력을 산출하였으며, 이를 이용하여 이방성 암반손상을 분석하였다. 또한 등방성 암반손상에 대해서도 분석하였다. 자연 암반이 가지고 있는 초기손상을 함께 고려하여 암반손상을 분석하였다. 등방성 암반손상의 매개변수 분석결과, 발파압력과 탄성계수가 암반손상에 가장 크게 영향을 미쳤다. 또한 이방성 암반손상의 매개변수 분석결과, 발파압력이 이방성 암반손상에 가장 크게 영향을 미쳤으나 탄생계수는 이방성 암반손상에 크게 영향을 미치지 않음을 알 수 있었다. 등방성과 이방성 암반손상을 등방성 암반손상과 비교한 결과, 이방성 암반의 수평방향 암반손상이 약 34% 증가 하였고 수직방향은 12% 감소하는 결과를 얻을 수 있었다. 등방성 암반에 대한 밀장전 조건과 디커플링장전 조건하에 발파로 인한 암반손상을 비교한 결과, 밀장전 조건의 암반손상이 디커플링장전 조건보다 약30배 정도 크게 나타났으며, 밀장전 조건의 발파압력은 디커플링장전 조건보다 10배 이상 큼을 알 수 있었다.

  • 일반적으로 구조물에 폭발, 충돌, 지진과 바람 등과 같이 짧은 시간에 큰 하중이 작용하게 되면 구조물은 국부적으로 재료의 대변형(large deformation), 대회전(large rotation), 대변형률(large strain)등이 발생하게 된다. 이와 같은 현상을 해석하려면 전산연속체 역학에 기초하여 유체-구조물 상호작용 등을 고려할 수 있는 하이드로코드(Hydrocode)의 도움이 필요하다. 또한, 폭발로 인해 발생되는 순간 동역학적인 폭발 메커니즘은 매우 복잡하기 때문에 폭발실험을 병행하여 거동을 예측하는 것이 합리적인 방법이지만 막대한 비용과 시설이 요구되므로 한계가 있는 것도 사실이다. 따라서 본 논문에서는 하이드로코드인 AUTODYN을 사용하여 폭발해석한 결과를 기수행된 철근콘크리트 슬래브의 폭발실험 결과와 비교하여 폭발해석 방법의 타당성을 검토하였고, 동일한 폭발해석 모형에 대하여 철근 배근간격, 피복두께의 변화 및 수직철근 유무에 따른 폭발 손상도를 비교검토하였다. 검토한 결과, 철근의 배근간격에 대한 철근콘크리트 슬래브 두께의 비가 커질수록, 지름이 큰 철근보다 지름이 작은 철근을 많이 사용할수록, 마지막으로 수직철근을 배근할수록 콘크리트 구조물의 내폭성능이 향상됨을 알 수 있었다.
