본 논문은 외부의 충격력을 차단하고, 충격에너지를 흡수하는 헬멧의 강도안전과 변형거동에 대한 수치적 연구를 수행한 것이다. 기존헬멧과, 보강뼈대와 주름댐퍼를 추가적으로 설치한 4개의 헬멧모델에 대한 응력 및 변형거동을 유한요소법으로 해석하였다. 헬멧의 정상부에 보강뼈대를 설치하면 헬멧의 강도 안전 향상에 유용하고, 헬멧의 하단부에 주름댐퍼를 설치하면 충격에너지 흡수효과가 우수하다는 것을 FEM 해석결과를 통해 확인할 수 있었다. 따라서 첨단헬멧을 안전하게 설계하기 위해서는 보강뼈대와 주름댐퍼를 새로운 설계요소로 고려할 것을 권장한다.

본 본문에서는 유한요소법과 다구찌의 최적설계법을 사용하여 헬멧의 모체 구조물에 대한 응력과 변형률 특성을 소재의 특성치, 헬멧의 두께, 보강뼈대의 수량과 두께의 함수로 각각 해석하였다. 소방관과 가스 작업자의 안전성 확보를 위해 필요한 헬멧에 대한 최적화 설계연구는 외부에서 작용하는 충격력에 대한 강도안전성을 높이고, 충격에너지 흡수력을 강화시킬 수 있는 데이터를 제공하기 때문에 대단히 중요하다. 따라서 헬멧 모체 구조물의 균일한 두께는 헬멧 모체의 중량을 감축하고 변형률 에너지를 높여 준다는 측면에서 줄여야 하지만, 헬멧의 보강뼈대의 수량과 두께는 헬멧의 충격강도를 높여준다는 측면에서 늘려주는 최적화 설계가 추진되어야 헬멧의 안전성은 확보된다는 해석결과를 제시하였다.

The foam-filled tube beams can be used for the front rail and firewall structures to absorb impact energy during frontal or side collision of vehicles. In the case of side collision where bending is involved in the crushing mechanism, the foam filler would be effective in maintaining progressive crushing of the thin-walled structures so that much impact energy could be absorbed. In this study, bending behaviors of the closed-cell-aluminum-alloy-foam-filled stainless steel tube were investigated. The various foam-filled specimens including piecewise fillers were prepared and tested. The aluminum-alloy-foam filling offered the significant increase of bending resistance. Their suppression of the inward fold formation at the compression flange as well as the multiple propagating folds led to the increase of load carrying capacity of specimens. Moreover, the piecewise foams would provide the easier way to fill the thin-walled shell structures without the drawback of strength.

This paper proposed a new 2D multibody dynamic modeling technique to analyze overriding behavior taking place during train collision. This dynamic model is composed of nonlinear spring, damper and mass by considering the deformable characteristics of carbodies as well as energy absorbing structures and components. By solving this dynamic model of rollingstock, collision energy absorption capacity, acceleration of passenger sections, impact forces applied to interconnecting devices, and overriding displacements can be well estimated. For a case study, we choose KHST (Korean High Speed Train), obtained crush characteristic data of each carbody section from 3D finite element analysis, and established a 2D multibody dynamic model. This 2D dynamic model was suggested to describe the collision behavior of 3D Virtual Testing Model.

Fiber reinforcement can significantly improve the properties of concrete. Particulary, toughness or energy-absorbing ability of fiber reinforced concrete is frequently higher than that of unreinforced concrete. Toughness is a measure of energy absorption capacity and used to characterized fiber reinforced concrete's ability to resist fracture when subjected to static, dynamic and impact loads. However, the current standard methods of characterizing the toughness of fiber reinforced concrete have proven to be some inadequate and problems and have caused a great deal of dissent and confusion. This study research some of the inadequate and problems with these toughness measurement methods and proposes the evaluation method for Fiber Reinforced Concrete toughness.

The present study focuses on examining the structural behaviour of steel-fibre-reinforced concrete (SFRC) beams under high rates of loading largely associated with impact problems. Fibres are added to the concrete mix to enhance ductility and energy absorption, which is important for impact-resistant design. A simple, yet practical non-linear finite-element analysis (NLFEA) model was used in the present study. Experimental static and impact tests were also carried out on beams spanning 1.3 meter with weights dropped from heights of 1.5 m and 2.5 m, respectively. The numerical model realistically describes the fully-brittle tensile behaviour of plain concrete as well as the contribution of steel fibres to the post-cracking response (the latter was allowed for by conveniently adjusting the constitutive relations for plain concrete, mainly in uniaxial tension). Suitable material relations (describing compression, tension and shear) were selected for SFRC and incorporated into ABAQUS software Brittle Cracking concrete model. A more complex model (i.e., the Damaged Plasticity concrete model in ABAQUS) was also considered and it was found that the seemingly simple (but fundamental) Brittle Cracking model yielded reliable results. Published data obtained from drop-weight experimental tests on RC and SFRC beams indicates that there is an increase in the maximum load recorded (compared to the corresponding static one) and a reduction in the portion of the beam span reacting to the impact load. However, there is considerable scatter and the specimens were often tested to complete destruction and thus yielding post-failure characteristics of little design value and making it difficult to pinpoint the actual load-carrying capacity and identify the associated true ultimate limit state (ULS). To address this, dynamic NLFEA was employed and the impact load applied was reduced gradually and applied in pulses to pinpoint the actual failure point. Different case studies were considered covering impact loading responses at both the material and structural levels as well as comparisons between RC and SFRC specimens. Steel fibres were found to increase the load-carrying capacity and deformability by offering better control over the cracking process concrete undergoes and allowing the impact energy to be absorbed more effectively compared to conventional RC members. This is useful for impact-resistant design of SFRC beams.

최근 콘크리트 구조물에 충격하중, 폭발하중 등 극한의 외력이 작용하는 경우가 빈번하게 발생하고 있다. 이 연구에서는 강섬유보강 RC보와 carbon FRP 시트를 이용하여 보강한 RC보를 이용하여 충격실험을 진행하였다. 강섬유보강 RC보의 경우 0.75%부피비로 강섬유를 혼입하였으며 carbon FRP 시트의 경우 에폭시 레진을 이용하여 보강을 한후 보 부재를 완성하였다. FRP 시트 보강은 부재의 하단을 휨 보강하였으며 충격하중이 부재에 작용할 때 발생하는 shear-plug 균열을 제어하기 위하여 충격하중이 가해지는 국부에 CFRP 전단보강을 실시하였다. 실험진행은 drop-weight test 방식으로 직접 기기를 만들어 실행하였다. 각각의 부재에 단계별로 충격하중을 가하여 실험을 진행하였으며 균열과 균열폭을 측정하였다. 실험결과 강섬유보강 RC보가 일반 RC보에 비하여 균열폭 및 shear-plug 균열제어 그리고 스폴링파괴에 더 높은 성능을 나타내었다. FRP로 부재의 하단을 휨 보강한 부재의 경우 균열의 제어에 어느정도 효과를 나타내고 있으나 충격하중이 가해질 시 콘크리트와 FRP 시트의 부착면에서 박리파괴가 빠르게 진행되었다. FRP 시트로 부재의 하단과 측면을 CFRP로 휨, 전단보강한 부재의 경우 shear-plug 균열제어에 가장 높은 저항성능을 보이고 있음을 확인할 수 있었다. 하지만 충격하중이 보강이 이루어지지 않은 부분에 작용할 경우 오히려 보강이 되지 않은 RC보에 비하여 콘크리트 스폴링 파괴에 더 취약함을 알 수 있었다.

Cold-formed steel (CFS) is a popular choice for construction due to its low cost, durability, sustainability, resistance to high environmental and seismic pressures, and ease of installation. The beam-column connections in residential and medium-rise structures are formed using self-drilling screws that connect two CFS channel sections and a gusset plate. In order to increase the moment capacity of these CFS screwed beam-column connections, stiffeners are often placed on the web area of each single channel. However, there is limited literature on studying the effects of stiffeners on the moment capacity of CFS screwed beam-column connections. Hence, this paper proposes a new test approach for determining the moment capacity of CFS screwed beam-column couplings. This study describes an experimental test programme consisting of eight novel experimental tests. The effect of stiffeners, beam thickness, and gusset plate thickness on the structural behaviour of CFS screwed beam-column connections is investigated. Besides, nonlinear elasto-plastic finite element (FE) models were developed and validated against experimental test data. It found that there was reasonable agreement in terms of moment capacity and failure mode prediction. From the experimental and numerical investigation, it found that the increase in gusset plate or beam thickness and the use of stiffeners have no significant effect on the structural behaviour, moment capacity, or rotational capacity of joints exhibiting the same collapse behaviour; however, the capacity or energy absorption capacities have increased in joints whose failure behaviour varies with increasing thickness or using stiffeners. Besides, the thickness change has little impact on the initial stiffness.

This investigation delves into the adverse repercussions stemming from the impact of arsenic on steel pipes concealed within soil designated for rice cultivation. Simultaneously, the study aims to ascertain effective techniques for detecting arsenic in the soil and to provide strategies for mitigating the corrosion of steel pipes. The realm of nanotechnology presents promising avenues for addressing the intricate intersection of renewable energy, oil, and environmental pollution from a novel perspective. Nanostructured materials, characterized by distinct chemical and physical attributes, unveil novel pathways for pioneering materials that exert a substantial impact across diverse realms of food production, storage, packaging, and quality control. Within the scope of the food industry, the scope of nanotechnology encompasses processes, storage methodologies, packaging paradigms, and safeguards to ensure the safety of consumables. Of particular note, silver nanoparticles, in addition to their commendable antibacterial efficacy, boast anti-fungal and anti-inflammatory prowess, environmental compatibility, minimal irritability and allergenicity, resilience to microbial antagonism, thermal stability, and robustness. Confronting the pressing issue of arsenic contamination within both environmental settings and the food supply is of paramount importance to preserve public health and ecological equilibrium. In response, this study introduces detection kits predicated upon silver nanoparticles, providing an expeditious and economically feasible avenue for identifying arsenic concentrations ranging from 0.5 to 3 ppm within rice. Subsequent quantification employs Hydride Atomic Absorption Spectroscopy (HG-AAS), which features a detection threshold of 0.05 ㎍/l. A salient advantage inherent in the HG-AAS methodology lies in its capacity to segregate analytes from the sample matrix, thereby significantly reducing instances of spectral interference. Importantly, the presence of arsenic in the soil beneath rice cultivation establishes a causative link to steel pipe corrosion, with potential consequences extending to food contamination-an intricate facet embedded within the broader tapestry of renewable energy, oil, and environmental pollution.
