Steel reinforced Engineered Cementitious Composite (ECC) components have been proposed for seismic structural applications, for example in coupling beams, infill panels, joints, columns, and flexural members. The development of strain in the steel reinforcement of cementitious components has been shown to vary based on both the steel reinforcement ratio and the applied deformation history. Strain in the steel reinforcement of reinforced ECC components is an important structural response metric because ultimate failure is often by fracture of the steel reinforcement. A recently proposed bond-slip model has been successfully calibrated to cyclically tested reinforced ECC beams wherein the deformation history contained monotonically increasing cycles. This paper reports simulations of two-dimensional finite element models of reinforced ECC beams to determine the appropriateness and significance of altering a phenomenological bond-slip model based on the applied deformation history. The numerical simulations with various values of post-peak bond-slip softening stiffness are compared to experimental results. Varying the post-peak bond-slip softening stiffness had little effect on the cracking patterns and hysteretic response of the reinforced ECC flexural models tested, which consisted of two different steel reinforcement ratios subjected to two different deformation histories. Varying the post-peak bond-slip softening stiffness did, however, affect the magnitude of strain and the length of reinforcing bar that strain-hardened. Overall, a numerical model with a constant bond-slip model represented well various responses in reinforced ECC beams with multiple steel reinforcement ratios subjected to different deformation histories.

Eight singly reinforced high strength concrete beams were tested to investigate their flexural behavior. The variable is tensile steel raio. The test results are presented in terms of load-deformation behavior, ductility indexes, and cracking patterns. The flexural strengths obtained experimentally are compapred to the analytical results, and good agreements are obtained. The flexural design provisions of the ACI Building Code are found to be adequate to predict the strength of reinforced high-strength concrete beams.

본 연구에서는 볼트의 변형을 고려한 강재 조립 합성보의 휨거동에 대한 해석기법 및 결과가 제시되었다. 볼트의 변형, 합성효과 및 접촉면의 마찰이 합성보의 휨거동에 끼치는 영향을 파악하였다. 볼트의 변형이 합성보의 휨거동에 끼치는 영향을 고려하기 위하여, 구조해석 프로그램인 ABAQUS의 Nonlinear Spring요소를 사용하였으며 볼트의 변형을 고려하지 않은 결과와 비교하였다. 유한요소 모델에 의해서 처짐, 휨응력, 전단응력이 계산되었으며 이런 결과는 완전 비합성보, 부분 합성보 및 완전 합성보의 해석 값과 비교되었다. 해석결과 합성보의 거동은 강재의 마찰보다 볼트의 갯수로 표현되는 합성률에 크게 영향을 받았다. 특히 합성률이 50%이상이 되면 볼트의 변형을 고려한 합성보의 휨거동은 완전합성보와 유사하게 나타났다.

Curved beams are more efficient in transfer of loads than straight beams because the transfer is effected by bending, shear and membrane action. The finite element method is a versatile method for solving structural mechanics problems and curved beam problems have been solved using this method by many author. In this study, a new three-noded hybrid-mixed curved beam element is proposed to investigate the in-plane flexural vibration behavior of arches depending on the curvature, aspect ratio and boundary conditions, etc. The proposed element including the effect of shear deformation is based on the Hellinger-Reissner variational principle, and employs the quadratic displacement functions and consistent linear stress functions. The stress parameters are then eliminated from the stationary condition of the variational principle so that the standard stiffness equations are obtained. Several numerical examples confirm the accuracy of the proposed finite element and also show the dynamic behavior of arches with various shapes.

최근, 강합성 구조의 외부 프리스트레스 도입 기법에 대한 응용연구가 왕성하게 수행되고 있다. 이는 역학적 효율성, 시공성 및 경제적 합리성면에서 우수한 강합성 구조에 외부 프리스트레스를 도입하므로써, 여러 가지 구조적 장점을 획득할 수 있기 때문이다. 이 논문에서는 외부 프리스트레스를 강합성 교량의 강주형에 도입할 때, 재료 비선형을 고려한 프리스트레스 합성형의 탄소성영역 휨 거동특성을 해석적으로 검토하기 위한 변형증분법(Incremental Deformation Method, IDM)을 제안하였다. 그리고 이를 실험을 통해 검증하였다.

The ACI 318 stress block parameters have been closely examined for validity of their values in evaluation of flexural strength and deformability. For this the conventional definition of stress block has been used. The comparison of parameter values between ACI stress blocks and the exact approach implies that an alternative idealization other than the rectangular stress block may be required.

Recently new technological development needs the advances in the fields of new materials. The most advanced design is not useful if new material's performance is not realized adequately for bearing the service loads and conditions. FGMs suggests the reasonable solution for the those requirements because of its wide range microstructure and the continuous constitutions. It's especially good for the heat-resisting components, piezoelectricity and aerocraft fields. However the fabrication and its experimental estimation methods have not been established because of its various freedom of material's properties. Therefore it is necessary to develope the fabrication method and estimation of strength and deformation. The experiments are conducted under a four point flexural test. According to results, this study shows that FGMs is well fabricated and the deformation and strain fields are expressed very well by digital image correlation method.

Plastic deformation of link beams in eccentrically braced frames is the primary dissipating source of seismic energy. Despite the excellent compatibility with the architectural designs, previous researches indicate the deficiency of flexural yielding links compared to the shear yielding ones because of their localized plastic deformation. Previous investigations have shown that implementing web openings in beams could be an efficient method to improve the seismic performance of moment-resisting connections. Accordingly, this research investigates the use of flexural links with stiffened and un-stiffened web openings to eliminate localized plasticity at the ends of the link. For this purpose, the numerical models are generated in finite element software "Abaqus" and verified against experimental data gathered from other studies. Models are subjected to cyclic displacement history to evaluate their behavior. Failure of the numerical models under cyclic loading is simulated using a micromechanical based damage model known as Cyclic Void Growth Model (CVGM). The elastic stiffness and the strength-based and CVGM-based inelastic rotation capacity of the links are compared to evaluate the studied models' seismic response. The results of this investigation indicate that some of the flexural links with edge stiffened web openings show increased inelastic rotation capacity compared to an un-perforated link.
