  • 본 연구에서는 공용중인 강철도교의 피로에 대한 안전성을 확보하기 위해 기존의 피로손상예측이론을 바탕으로 강철도교의 피로손상 및 피로균열발생까지의 피로수명을 평가하였으며, 또한 신뢰성이론에 근거하여 사용수명에 따른 신뢰도를 평가하였다. 그리고 이러한 평가를 바탕으로 다양한 통행조건에 대해 등가열차하중을 이용한 간편한 분석 기법을 제안하였다. 피로손상평가를 위하여 적용한 실동응력은 대상교량이 경험하는 다양한 하중조건에 대해 구조해석을 통해서 구해진 응력이력에 보정계수를 적용하여 구하였다. 본 연구의 결과로부터 운행특성, 즉 교행조건의 고려 유 무에 따른 잔존수명은 교행특성을 고려하지 않은 경우가 고려한 경우보다 약간 긴 것으로 평가되었다. 또한 본 연구에서 제안한 간편한 분석기법인 등가열차하중모형에 의한 잔존수명평가 결과는 상세잔존수명평가 결과와 비교하여 볼 때 그 차이가 근사한 것으로 평가되었다.

  • Strengthening with near surface mounted carbon fibre reinforced polymers (NSM-CFRP) is a strengthening technique that have been used for several decades to increase the load carrying capacity of reinforced concrete members. In Iraq, many concrete buildings and bridges were subjected to a wide range of damage as a result of the last war and many other events. Accordingly, there is a progressive increase in the strengthening of concrete structures, bridges in particular, by using CFRP strengthening techniques. Near-surface mounted carbon fibre polymer has been recently proved as a powerful strengthening technique in which the CFRP strips are sufficiently protected against external environmental conditions especially the high-temperature rates in Iraq. However, this technique has not been examined yet under repeated loading conditions such as traffic loads on bridge girders. The main objective of this research was to investigate the effectiveness of NSM-CFRP strips in reinforced concrete beams under repeated loads. Different parameters such as the number of strips, groove size, and two types of bonding materials (epoxy resin and cement-based adhesive) were considered. Fifteen NSM-CFRP strengthened beams were tested under concentrated monotonic and repeated loadings. Three beams were non-strengthened as reference specimens while the remaining were strengthened with NSM-CFRP strips and divided into three groups. Each group comprises two beams tested under monotonic loads and used as control for those tested under repeated loads in the same group. The experimental results are discussed in terms of load-deflection behavior up to failure, ductility factor, cumulative energy absorption, number of cycles to failure, and the mode of failure. The test results proved that strengthening with NSM-CFRP strips increased both the flexural strength and stiffness of the tested beams. An increase in load carrying capacity was obtained in a range of (1.47 to 4.49) times that for the non-strengthened specimens. Also, the increase in total area of CFRPs showed a slight increase in flexural capacity of (1.02) times the value of the control strengthened one tested under repeated loading. Increasing the total area of CFRP strips resulted in a reduction in ductility factor reached to (0.71) while the cumulative energy absorption increased by (1.22) times the values of the strengthened reference specimens tested under repeated loading. Moreover, the replacement of epoxy resin with cement-based adhesive as a bonding material exhibited higher ductility than specimen with epoxy resin tested under monotonic and repeated loading.

  • In this study, fatigue growth behavior of the transverse crack, which was the most dangerous damage among the various types of rail defects, was investigated using the notched keyhole specimen under constant amplitude loadings. Fatigue limit of smooth specimen in rail steel at R=0 was 110MPa, and the fatigue crack initiation life in the region of the low stress amplitude (ie. long life) occupied the major portion of the total fatigue life. The fatigue strength under variable amplitude loading was converted to the equivalent fatigue strength based upon. Miners rule, which was estimated approximately 9% lower than that under constant amplitude loading. Also, in the low ΔK(sub)rms region ($\leq$21MPa√m), fatigue crack growth rate (da/dN) under constant amplitude loading was higher than that under variable amplitude loading, whereas the tendency was reversed in the high ΔK(sub)rms region. It is believed that this behavior is due to the transition of fracture appearance.

  • In the present study, an innovative steel bracket and haunch hybrid scheme is devised, for retrofitting of earthquake damaged deficient beam-column sub-assemblages. Formulations are presented for evaluating haunch force factor under combined load case of lateral and gravity loads for the design of double haunch retrofit. The strength hierarchies of control and retrofitted beam-column sub-assemblages are established to showcase the efficacy of the retrofit in reversing the undesirable strength hierarchy. Further, the efficacy of the proposed retrofit scheme is demonstrated through experimental investigations carried out on gravity load designed (GLD), non-ductile and ductile detailed beam-column sub-assemblages which were damaged under reverse cyclic loading. The maximum load carried by repaired and retrofitted GLD specimen in positive and negative cycle is 12% and 28% respectively higher than that of the control GLD specimen. Further, the retrofitted GLD specimen sustained load up to drift ratio of 5.88% compared with 2.94% drift sustained by control GLD specimen. Repaired and retrofitted non-ductile specimen, could attain the displacement ductility of three during positive cycle of loading and showed improved ductility well above the expected displacement ductility of three during negative cycle. The hybrid haunch retrofit restored the load carrying capacity of damaged ductile specimen to the original level of control specimen and improved the ductility closer to the expected displacement ductility of five. The total cumulative energy dissipated by repaired and retrofitted GLD, non-ductile and ductile specimens are respectively 6.5 times, 2.31 times, 1.21 times that of the corresponding undamaged control specimens. Further, the damage indices of the repaired and retrofitted specimens are found to be lower than that of the corresponding control specimens. The novel and innovative steel bracket and haunch hybrid retrofit scheme proposed in the present study demonstrated its effectiveness by attaining the required displacement ductility and load carrying capacity and would be an excellent candidate for post-earthquake retrofit of damaged existing RC structures designed according to different design evolutions.

  • 가변진폭 하중에서 고무부품의 피로수명 예측방법에 대하여 연구하였다. 서로 다른 변위에서 변위제어 피로시험을 수행하였으며 피로손상변수로 최대 Green-Lagrange 변형률을 선정하였다. Green-Lagrange 변형률에 의한 고무의 피로수명 곡선은 3차원 덤벨시편의 비선형 유한요소법을 이용하여 결정하였다. 피로수명 예측을 위하여 가변진폭 하중이력으로 SAE의 하중이력을 이용하였다. 레이스트랙법과 단순화된 레인플로집계법을 이용하여 하중이력신호를 축약하였다. 누적손상피로를 계산하는 방법으로 수정Miner 법칙을 이용하였으며, 최종적으로 하중이력신호에서 최대 진폭의 30% 이하를 노이즈로 간주하여 예측하였을 경우의 피로수명은 실제 가변진폭 하중 하에서의 피로시험결과와 비교적 잘 일치하였다.

  • The goal of this study was to develop an accelerated life test for an implement working pump for an agricultural tractor. The field experiments were conducted to measure the load of an implement working pump during major agricultural operations such as plow tillage, rotary tillage, baler operations, and wrapping operations. The measurement system for an implement working pump load was constructed using a pressure sensor, the engine rotational speed, and the hitch pump displacement. The measured implement working pump load was calculated as an equivalent load for each agricultural operation using the Palmgren-Miner rule, which is a cumulative damage method. The equivalent load was calculated using the total load data and peak load data when the total data included the operation of an implement working. The annual usage time of the agricultural tractor was applied to develop two integrated equivalent loads. The acceleration factor was calculated to develop an accelerated life test and was calculated from the two integrated equivalent loads, the maximum pressure, and the flow rate conditions of the hitch pump. In Korea, the warranty life of a tractor is 2,736 hours, and the time required for the test to guarantee the operational life of tractors was calculated as 7,561 hours. The acceleration factors were calculated as 453.6 and 38.3, respectively, from the total load data and peak load data. The fatigue test time can be shortened by 16.7 and 197.4 hours according to the result of the acceleration factors.

  • 대형 용접 구조물에 대한 피로설계 수명의 예측은 일반적으로 Palmgren Miner과 등가손상도 방법 또는 선형누적손상도 방법을 사용한다. 또한 용접 구조물에서 피로 균열이 발생되면 잔존 수명은 S-N 곡선과 선형 파괴역학에 기초하여 예측되고 있다. 본 연구에서는 면외거셋 용접이음의 3차원 피로균열 진전거동과 피로수명을 예측하기 위하여 피로 시험을 실시하였다. 면외거셋 용접이음의 3차원 피로균열진전해석은 NX NASTRAN 및 FRANC3D를 이용하여 유한요소 해석을 실시하였다. 면외거셋 용접이음의 균열 형상비, 초기균열 크기 및 응력비에 미치는 영향을 검토하기 위하여 피로균열진전 해석을 실시하였다. 또한 초기균열크기, 균열 형상비와 응력비의 변화에 따른 3차원 피로균열진전 해석 결과와 피로시험결과를 비교하였다. 피로균열진전 해석결과, 피로균열 진전속도와 응력확대계수와의 관계에서 피로시험과 유사하게 나타남을 확인하였으며, 면외거셋 용접이음의 피로수명을 추정할 수 있음을 확인하였다.

  • 최근 기후변화가 심화됨에 따라 가뭄으로 유발되는 피해가 증가하고 있다. 현재 국내의 가뭄 강도를 결정하기 위해 표준강수지수(Standardized Precipitation Index, SPI)를 기준으로 분류를 수행하고 있다. 현재 국내에서는 최근 6개월 동안의 누적강수량을 기준(SPI-6)으로 관심, 주의, 경계, 심각의 기상학적 가뭄의 강도를 분류하고 있다. 그러나 강수량만을 기초자료로 활용하기 때문에 가뭄 강도를 분류하는 데 한계가 있다는 문제점이 있다. 따라서 본 연구에서는 SPI에 따른 국내 기상학적 가뭄 예・경보 기준의 한계점을 극복하고자 국가가뭄정보포털(National Drought Information Portal, NDIP)에서 제공하는 비상급수 피해자료를 수집하여 가뭄의 강도를 분류하였다. 그리고 SPI의 인자인 강수량과 증발산량 산정에 사용되는 인자인 온도, 습도 등을 min-max 정규화로 지수화한 후 유전 알고리즘(Genetic Algorithm, GA) 기반으로 각 인자들에 대한 계수를 산정하였다. 비상급수에 따른 가뭄의 강도를 분류하여 종속변수로 활용하고, GA에 의한 각 기상인자들의 계수를 활용하여 새로운 가뭄 강도 분류 지수(Drought Severity Classification Index, DSCI)를 도출하고자 하였다. DSCI를 도출한 후 누적분포함수를 활용하여 분위별 경계를 강도 단계 분류 기준으로 제시하였다. 본 연구에서 제시한 DSCI를 활용하면 기존 SPI보다 가뭄 강도를 정확하게 분류할 수 있어, 재난 담당자들의 의사결정을 지원할 수 있을 것으로 판단된다.

  • 국지성 호우 및 설계빈도 이상 강우의 증가로 침수피해가 매년 증가하고 있으며 이에 따라 홍수 조절 및 방어를 위한 수공구조물의 중요성이 증가하고 있다. 수공구조물은 목적과 성능에 따른 설계가 이루어지고 있고 홍수량이 중요한 산정 요소이나 국내에서는 관측자료의 신뢰성 부족 및 데이터의 부족으로 인하여 수공구조물 설계를 위한 수문해석 입력자료로 사용되는 설계강우량은 정확한 확률강우량의 산정과 시간분포가 중요한 요소로 작용한다. 실무에서는 Huff의 4분위 방법의 누가우량백분율을 이용하여 설계강우량의 시간분포 회귀식을 산정하고 있으며 분위별 곡선에 대한 회귀식은 전반적으로 정확도가 높게 나타나는 6차 다항회귀식을 일률적으로 사용하고 있다. 본 연구에서는 실무에서 일반적으로 설계강우량의 시간분포를 위해 사용하고 있는 Huff의 4분위 방법의 누가우량백분율을 이용하여 통계 모델링에서 간결함의 원리에 따라 변수선택법을 이용하여 시간분포 회귀식을 유도하였으며, 유의성 검정을 통한 시간분포 회귀식의 검증을 실시하였다. 변수선택법과 유의성 검정을 통한 시간분포 회귀식 산정 결과 전진선택법과 후방제거법의 장점을 모두 가지고 있는 단계선택법을 이용하여 시간분포 회귀식을 유도하는 것이 가장 적합한 것으로 분석되었다.
