The use of high tensile steel plates is increasing in the fabrication of ship and offshore structures. The main portion of ship structure is usually composed of stiffened plates. In these structures, plate buckling is one of the most important design criteria and buckling load may usually be obtained as an eigenvalue solution of the governing equations for the plate. To use the high tensile steel plate effectively, its thickness may become thin so that the occurrence of buckling is inevitable and design allowing plate buckling may be necessary. When the panel elastic buckling is allowed, it is necessary to get precise understandings about the post-buckling behaviour of thin plates. It is well known that a thin flat plate undergoes secondary buckling after initial buckling took place and the deflection of the initial buckling mode was developed. From this point of view, this paper discusses the post-buckling behaviour of thin plates under thrust including the secondary buckling phenomenon. Series of elastic large deflection analyses were performed on rectangular plates with aspect ratio 3.6 using the analytical method and the FEM.

This study is to investigate the properties on the load-deflection and fracture behaviors of the steel fiber reinforced concrete(SFRC) slab model specimens, Steel fibers of indent, crimp, and end hook shape were considered to reinforce the matrix under various mixing conditions and proportions. Initial cracking load, maximum load, and energy absorption capacity(load carrying capacity) of SFRC panel specimen increased with increase of steel fiber contents. And the plain concrete slab was fractured abruptly after maximum load but SRFC slabs were fractured smoothly by steel fibers in concrete matrix operated as cracking resistance force after maximum load. Indent, crimp and end hook shape steel fibers were effective in reinforcing the matrices but end hook type fiber were superior to indent and crimp type fibers.

Thermal postbuckling and vibration analyses of functionally graded plates (FG plates) are performed. The nonlinear finite element equation based on the first-order shear deformation plate theory is formulated for the FG plate. The von Karman strain-displacement relation is used to account for the thermal large deflection. The incremental method considering the effect of the initial deflection and the initial stress is adopted for temperature-dependent material properties of functionally graded materials. The numerical result shows characteristics of the thermal postbuckling and vibration of FG plates in the pre- and post- buckled regions.

This study was carried out to evaluate the mechano-sorptive deflection of shear creep of drift pin jointed solid wood. Specimens were the solid wood of Pinus densiflora. The joint was composed with steel plate and drift pin, 85mm in length and 10mm in diameter. The creep tests were conducted under the constant loads in an variable environment. Five different shearing loads were applied parallel to the grain of specimens. The shearing loads applied were 170, 340, 510, 680 and 850 kgf. The stress levels were 10, 20, and 30, 40 and 50% of the bearing strength obtained from the tension-type lateral strength test. The creep tests for specimens were carried out for 10300 hours. A few general conclusions could be drawn from this study: The mechano-sorptive deflection (${\delta}$ ms) is defined as ${\delta}\;ms={\delta}\;t-({\delta}\;c+{\delta}\;sh)-{\delta}\;o$, where ${\delta}$ t is the total deflection, ${\delta}$ c is the pure creep, ${\delta}$ sh is shrinkage-swelling behavior, and ${\delta}$ o is the initial deflection. Changes of relative humidity may cause more severe creep deflection than those of constant humidity, especially during the drying process. The mechano-sorptive behaviors of specimens, except the effects of shrinkage and swelling, gradually increased with increasing time. The deflection is increased in desorption process and recovered in adsorption process. The deflections of drift pin jointed solid wood under different loads showed almost same tendency in all specimens. Although the creep deflection tendencies of each series are very similar, the specimens subjected to a large shearing load exhibit large creep deflections in the desorption process than do those to the small shearing load specimens.

The in-reactor fuel rod support conditions against the fretting wear-induced damage can be evaluated by residual spacer grid spring deflection or rod-to-grid gap. In order to evaluate the impact of fuel design parameters on the fretting wear-induced damage, a simulation methodology of the in-reactor fuel rod supporting conditions as a function of burnup has been developed and implemented in the GRIDFORCE program. The simulation methodology takes into account cladding creep rate, initial spring deflection, initial spring force, and spring force relaxation rate as the key fuel design parameters affecting the in-reactor fuel rod supporting conditions. Based on the parametric studies on these key parameters, it is found that the initial spring deflection, the spring force relaxation rate and cladding creepdown rate are in the order of the impact on the in-reactor fuel rod supporting conditions. Application of this simulation methodology to the fretting wear-induced failure experienced in a commercial plant indicates that this methodology can be utilized as an effective tool in evaluating the capability of newly developed cladding materials and/or new spacer grid designs against the fretting wear-induced damage.

In this paper, in the case of an inertial navigation system, the posture estimation error in the initial alignment due to vertical deflection is analyzed. Posture estimation error due to DOV was theoretically analyzed based on the speed and posture error of INS. Simulations were performed to verify the theoretical grinding, and the results were in good agreement. For example, in the case of η=20", an alignment error of ϕ_N=0.00287°, ϕ_U=0.00196° occurred, and in the case of 𝜉=20", an error of ϕ_E= -0.00286° occurred. Through this, it was confirmed that the vertical posture error caused by the DOV occurred as a coupling characteristic of the INS posture error. It has been shown that an additional posture error may occur due to the DOV, which was not considered in the existing INS alignment, which means that correction for the DOV must be considered when applying high-precision INS.

Optimum design of the big brackets is performed through iterated 3-D FE analyses to meet the permissible limits of stress, which consumes an excessive amount of calculation time. Therefore, this study has been prepared to determine rapidly and accurately an optimum size and scantling of the big brackets at the initial design stage. The generalized slope deflection method (GSDM) based on the span point concept is applied to enhance the efficiency of iterated structural analyses. The accuracy and applicability of the present method is verified by comparing with a detail 3-D FE analysis of web frame structures. As an optimization technique, evolution strategies (ES) are applied using discrete design variables for practical design.

Generally design of frame structures composed of beam-column member is accomplished by stability evaluation of each member considering the effective buckling length. This study selects a member of the smallest non-dimension slenderness ratio using the buckling eigenvalue calculated by the elastic buckling eigen-value analysis and axial force of the each member, and decides the initial deflection quantity reflected geometric and material nonlinearities from a suggested equation on the base of standard strength curve of Korea Bridge Design Code. Second-order elastic analysis applying the initial deflection is executed and the stability of each member is evaluated and decides ultimate strength. Through examples of eight-stories and four-stories plane frame structures, the evaluation of the stability is compared with the existing method and ultimate strength of the suggested method is compared with ultimate strength by the nonlinear inelastic analysis. Through these procedures, the increasing of effective buckling length by elastic buckling eigenvalue analysis is prevented from a new design method that considers initial imperfections. And the validity of this method is proved.

Trepan prevents the wear of the inside part of a bearing when the initial shaft rotates. It continuously contacts with the eccentric part of the shaft in rotation and is loaded repeatedly. Therefore, even if an early crack of a trepan part is small, the crack may progress by the repeated load. If the crack progresses, very small chips come out. This Is put in the rotor and prevents the rotation of the compressor, There can be leaks in a microgroove and extreme wear can occur due to lack of oil on the surface contact part. Therefore, this study was carried out to compare and investigate the trepan strength and deflection characteristics between trepan locations and dimension changes using the finite element method and search a motor bearing for a model with bigger stiffness of a trepan part and the same deflection.

This investigation is aimed to develop a model of experimental-computation determination of a support moment of a cantilever beam loaded with concentrated force at its end including the optimal choice of coordinates of deflection data points and parameters of transformation of deflection data in case of insufficient accuracy of the assignment of initial parameters (support settlement, angle of rotation of the bearing section) and cantilever beam length. The influence of distribution and characteristics of sensors on the cantilever beam on the accuracy of determining the support moment which improves in the course of transition from the uniform distribution of sensors to optimal non-uniform distribution is shown. On the basis of the theory of inverse problems the method of transformation reduction at numerical differentiation of deflection functions has been studied. For engineering evaluation formulae of uncertainty estimate to determine a support moment of a cantilever beam at predetermined uncertainty of measurements using sensors have been obtained.
