In the past, many efficient profiles have been developed for cold-formed steel (CFS) members by judicious intermediate stiffening of the cross-sections, and they have shown improved structural performance over conventional CFS sections. Most of this research work was based on numerical modelling, thus lacking any experimental evidence of the efficiency of these sections. To fulfill this requirement, experimental studies were conducted in this study, on efficient intermediately stiffened CFS sections in flexure, which will result in easy and simple fabrication. Two series of built-up sections, open sections (OS) and box sections (BS), were fabricated and tested under four-point loading with same cross-sectional area. Test strengths, modes of failure, deformed shapes, load vs. mid-span displacements and geometric imperfections were measured and reported. The design strengths were quantified using North American Standards and Indian Standards for cold-formed steel structures. This study confirmed that efficient profiling of CFS sections can improve both the strength and stiffness performance by up to 90%. Closed sections showed better strength performance whereas open sections showed better stiffness performance.

The five punch and die sets are selected as the examples of arbitrary cross sections which have two opposite inclined sides. Two kinds of blank shapes are designed for all cross sections. One(h-b1.) is determined by slip-line theory and the other (G-b1.) is determined conventionally as the similar shapes with the cross sections which were used by Gopinathan. As a result of the experimental procedures, the superiority of the blank shapes designed by slip-line theory is verified in the limiting drawing ratio, the uniformity of cup height and the thickness distributions.

In the conventional ship's structures, the stiffeners with asymmetric sections have been widely used, in spite of the disadvantage on the point of strength, compared to those with symmetric sections. So far, the stiffened plating was usually analyzed not considering the geometric unsymmetry characteristics of the section, including only the cross sectional area and moment of inertia. In this paper, the stiffened plating is devided into the strips having a thin-walled open cross section by using the concept of the effective width. The geometric characteristics of the sections are also included. The governing equations are derived, which can be applied to the arbitrary cross section beams, and the symmetric and the asymmetric section beams which have the same cross sectional areas are analyzed by using the finite element method. From that result, we obtain the allowable load of the two sections, and compared them.

The expediency of using tubular composite steel and concrete columns of annular cross-sections in construction is discussed. The new type space framework with tubular composite columns of multi-storey buildings and its rigid beam-column joints are demonstrated. The features of interaction between the circular steel tube and spun concrete stress-strain states during the concentrical and eccentrical loading of tubular composite members are considered. The modeling of the bearing capacity of beam-columns of composite annular cross-sections is based on the concepts of bending with a concentrical force and compression with a bending moment. The comparison of modeling results for the composite cross-sections of beam-columns is analysed. The expediency of using these concepts for the limit state verification of beam-columns in the methods of the partial safety factors design (PSFD) legitimated in Europe and the load and resistance factors design (LRFD) used in other countries is presented and illustrated by a numerical example.

This paper calculates and gives the analysis of mean energy in pure $SiH_4,\;Ar-SiH_4$ mixture gases ($SiH_4-0.5[%],\;5[%]$) over the range of $E/N =0.01{\sim}300[Td]$, p = 0.1, 1, 5.0 [Torr] by Monte Carlo the Backward prolongation method of the Boltzmann equation using computer simulation without using expensive equipment. The results have been obtained by using the electron collision cross sections by TOF, PT, SST sampling, compared with the experimental data determined by the other author. It also proved the reliability of the electron collision cross sections and shows the practical values of computer simulation. The calculations of electron swarm parameters require the knowledge of several collision cross-sections of electron beam. Thus, published momentum transfer, ionization, vibration, attachment, electronic excitation, and dissociation cross-sections of electrons for $SiH_4$ and Ar, were used. The differences of the transport coefficients of electrons in $SiH_4$, mixtures of $SiH_4$ and Ar, have been explained by the deduced energy distribution functions for electrons and the complete collision cross-sections for electrons. A two-term approximation of the Boltzmann equation analysis and Monte Carlo simulation have been used to study electron transport coefficients.

본 연구는 단순한 직사각형 하도에서 발생한 댐 붕괴 및 홍수전파 등에서 만족스러운 결과를 보였던 Riemann 근사해법을 이용한 1차원 유한체적기법을 불규칙한 하도형상의 자연하도에 적용하기 위하여 새로운 기법을 개발하는 것이 목적이다. 이를 위하여 자연하천 단면을 등가의 직사각형 단면으로 변환하는 개념을 도입하였으며, 그 결과, 운동량방정식이 수정되었다. 새롭게 개발된 기법을 정확해가 존재하는 삼각형 단면하도의 댐 붕괴 흐름에 적용하고 그 결과를 비교함으로써, 기법의 정확성 및 적용성이 검증되었다. 단면의 형상 및 단면간 거리가 균일하지 않는 자연하도에 적용한 결과는 실측수위와 비교하여 홍수파의 전파 양상, 도수의 발생 위치 및 크기, 그리고 전 구간에서의 최대 수위가 잘 일치함을 나타낸다. 본 연구결과로부터 기존의 균일한 단면을 사용하여 개발된 기법들을 복잡한 수치처리과정 없이 자연하천 단면에 직접 적용할 수 있을 것으로 판단된다.

The objective of this study was to improve the cross-sectional area and height estimation method using stream width. Stream water levels should be calculated together to simulate inundation of agricultural land. However, cross-sectional survey data of small rural rivers are insufficient. The previous study has developed regression equations between the width and the cross-sectional area and between the width and the height of stream cross-section, but can not be applied to a wide range of stream widths. In this study, cross-sectional survey data of 6 streams (Doowol, Chungmi, Jiseok, Gam, Wonpyeong, and Bokha stream) were collected and divided into upstream, midstream and downstream considering the locations of cross-sections. The regression equations were estimated using the complete data. $R^2$ between the stream width and cross-sectional area was 0.96, and $R^2$ between width and height was 0.81. The regression equations were also estimated using divided data for upstream, midstream and downstream considering the locations of cross-sections. The range of $R^2$ between the stream width and cross-sectional area was 0.86 - 0.91, and the range of $R^2$ between width and height was 0.79 ? 0.92. As a result of estimating the cross-sections of 6 rivers using the regression equations, the regression equations considering the locations of cross-sections showed better performance both in the cross-sectional area and height estimation than the regression equations estimated using the complete data. Hydrologic Engineering Center - River Analysis System (HEC-RAS) was used to simulate the flood stage analysis of the estimated and the measured cross-sections for 50-year, 100-year, and 200-year frequency floods. As a result of flood stage analysis, the regression equations considering the locations of cross-sections also showed better performance than the regression equations estimated using the complete data. Future research would be needed to consider the factors affecting the cross-sectional shape such as river slope and average flow velocity. This study can be useful for inundation simulation of agricultural land adjacent to an unmeasured stream.

Hydroforming of a non-axisymmetric thin-walled tubular component with variable cross sections was analyzed. In order to solve the sealing problem which occurred due to the thin and non-axisymmetric shape, the use of a lead patch on the punch, which had been successful in hydroforming of thin tubes, was evaluated. A lead patch was attached to the punch to solve the sealing problem, which was caused by the stress gradient in the non-axisymmetric shape. FEM and experiments were also performed to analyze these sealing problems associated with the punch shape and non-axisymmetric shape. Finally, the lead patch was attached at tube surface where intensive local strain concentration would occur to enhance the hydroformability. These methods were successfully used to fabricate non-axisymmetric thin-walled tubular component with variable cross sections that had previously failed during traditional hydroforming.

The present paper deals with the effective slenderness ratio of telescopic cylinders as a long column having different cross sections. Firstly, the slenderness ratio defined in the current standard for the telescopic cylinders is discussed to point out some difficulties which arise when the ratio is applied to the column having different cross sections. Secondly, a new effective slenderness ratio is proposed for columns having different cross sections by introducing a partial effective slenderness ratio. Finally, the proposed slenderness ratio is applied, for extending and development of discussion, to a two-staged column having piece-wise constant cross sections and a cylindrical column having linearly varying diameters.
