본 연구는 포화된 연약 점성토에 대한 보강효과를 분석하기 위하여 롤러 다짐장비를 사용하여 수행하였다. 시료는 12시간 수침으로 포화 상태를 만들었으며, 철재 롤러로 평면변형을 상태에서 5cm 층 두께로 4층의 다짐을 실시하였다. 보강효과를 분석하기 위하여 무보강 조건 및 부직포와 직포로 구성된 복합보강재를 사용한 보강조건으로 다짐 공시체를 제작하였다. 복합보강재의 배수효과와 인장 보강효과로 고함수비 점성토의 지지력을 증가시켜, 보강토에 대하여 큰 다짐하중을 가할 수 있게 되어 보다 큰 밀도를 효과적으로 얻을 수 있다. 또한 다짐 작업시 보강재에 의해 연직재하 하중에 대한 전단저항 반력의 감소에 의해 다짐효율을 증가시킨다. 공시체 저면에서의 최대 연직응력은 다짐두께가증가 할수록 감소하게 된다. 한편 보강재는 롤러의 연직하부의 지반강성을 증가시켜 응력집중현상이 발생한다. 이로인하여 공시체 저면에서 보다 높은 연직응력 수준을 유지하며 보다 효과적인 다짐 특성을 제공하게 된다. 시험결과로부터 연약점성토의 효과적인 다짐을 위해서는 보강재가 필수적으로 요구된다고 할 수 있다.

Orthogonal pairs of rollers on concave beds (OPRCB) are a low-cost, low-tech rolling-based isolating system, whose high efficiency has been shown in a previous study. However, seismic performance of OPRCB isolators has only been studied in the two-dimensional (2D) state so far. This is while their performance in the three-dimensional (3D) state differs from that of the 2D state, mainly since the vertical accelerations due to rollers' motion in their beds, simultaneously in two orthogonal horizontal directions, are added up and resulting in bigger vertical inertia forces and higher rolling resistance. In this study, first, Lagrange equations were used to derive the governing equations of motion of the OPRCB-isolated buildings in 3D. Then, some regular shear-type OPRCB-isolated buildings were considered subjected to three-component excitations of far- and near-source earthquakes, and their responses were compared to those of their fixed-base counterparts. Finally, the effects of more realistic modeling and analysis were examined by comparing the responses of isolated buildings in 2D and 3D states. Response histories were obtained by the fourth-order Runge-Kutta-Nystrom method, considering the geometrical nonlinearity of isolators. Results reveal that utilizing the OPRCB isolators effectively reduces the acceleration response, however, depending on the system specifications and earthquake characteristics, the maximum responses of isolated buildings in the 3D state can be up to 40% higher than those in the 2D state.

The buckling-restrained braced frames with eccentric configurations (BRBFECs) are stable cyclic behavior and high energy absorption capacity. Furthermore, they have an architectural advantage for creating openings like eccentrically braced frames (EBFs). In the present study, it has been suggested to use the performance-based plastic design (PBPD) method to calculate the design base shear of the BRBFEC systems. Moreover, in this study, to reduce the required steel material, it has been suggested to use the performance-based practical design (PBPD) method instead of the force-based design (FBD) method for the design of this system. The 3-, 6-, and 9-story buildings with the BRBFEC system were designed, and the finite element models were modeled. The seismic performance of the models was investigated using two suits of ground motions representing the maximum considered earthquake (MCE) and design basis earthquake (DBE) seismic hazard levels. The results showed that the models designed with the suggested method, which had lower weights compared to those designed with the FBD method, had a desirable seismic performance in terms of maximum story drift and ductility demand under earthquakes at both MCE and DBE seismic hazard levels. This suggests that the steel weights of the structures designed with the PBPD method are about 13% to 18% lesser than the FBD method. However, the residual drifts in these models were higher than those in the models designed with the FBD method. Also, in earthquakes at the DBE hazard level, the residual drifts in all models except the PBPD-6s and PBPD-9s models were less than the allowable reparability limit.

Upon direct/indirect exposure to flame or heat, composite structures may burn or thermally buckle. This issue becomes more important in the natural fiber-based composite structures with higher flammability and lower mechanical properties. The main goal of the present study was to obtain an optimal eco-friendly composite system with low flammability and high thermal buckling resistance. The studied composite consisted of polypropylene (PP) and short abaca fiber (AF) with eggshell powder (ESP) and halloysite clay nanotubes (HNTs) additives. An optimal base composite, consisting of 30 wt.% AF and 70 wt.% PP, abbreviated as OAP, was initially introduced based on burning rate (BR) and the Young's modulus determined by horizontal burning test (HBT) and tensile test, respectively. The effects of adding ESP to the base composite were then investigated with the same experimental tests. The results indicated that though the BR significantly decreased with the increase of ESP content up to 6 wt.%, it had a very destructive influence on the stiffness of the composite. To compensate for the damaging effect of ESP, small amount of HNT was used. The performance of OAP composite with 6 wt.% ESP and 3 wt.% HNT (OAPEH) was explored by conducting HBT, cone calorimeter test (CCT) and tensile test. The experimental results indicated a 9~23 % reduction in almost all flammability parameters such as heat release rate (HRR), total heat released (THR), maximum average rate of heat emission (MARHE), total smoke released (TSR), total smoke production (TSP), and mass loss (ML) during combustion. Furthermore, the combination of 6 wt.% ESP and 3 wt.% HNT reduced the stiffness of OAP to an insignificant amount by maximum 3%. Moreover, the char residue analysis revealed the distinct differences in the formation of char between AF/PP and AF/PP/ESP/HNT composites. Afterward, dilatometry test was carried out to examine the coefficient of thermal expansion (CTE) of OAP and OAPEH samples. The obtained results showed that the CTE of OAPEH composite was about 18% less than that of OAP. Finally, a theoretical model was used based on first-order shear deformation theory (FSDT) to predict the critical bucking temperatures of the OAP and OAPEH composite plates. It was shown that in the absence of mechanical load, the critical buckling temperatures of OAPEH composite plates were higher than those of OAP composites, such that the difference between the buckling temperatures increased with the increase of thickness. On the contrary, the positive effect of CTE reduction on the buckling temperature decreased by raising the axial compressive mechanical load on the composite plates which can be assigned to the reduction of stiffness after the incorporation of ESP. The results of present study generally stated that a suitable combination of AF, PP, ESP, and HNT can result in a relatively optimal and environmentally friendly composite with proper flame and thermal buckling resistance with no significant decline in the stiffness.

강성옹벽에 작용하는 주동토압의 크기와 분포형태에 영향을 미치는 아칭효과는 옹벽의 안정성과 옹벽 단면의 결정에도 영향을 미치게 된다. 따라서 본 연구에서는 평행이동하는 강성옹벽의 경우에 뒷채움재에서 발생하는 아칭효과가 옹벽에 작용하는 토압과 전도모멘트, 옹벽의 안정성, 그리고 옹벽의 단면에 미치는 영향을 규명하기 위하여 아칭효과를 고려해서 토압을 산정하는 백(2003a)의 제안식과 Coulomb의 토압이론으로부터 얻어진 결과들을 서로 비교하였다. 연구결과 $\phi$와 $\delta$의 크기에 관계없이 아칭효과를 고려했을 때의 주동토압이 Coulomb 토압보다 컸으며, 옹벽에 작용하는 전도모멘트도 아칭효과를 고려했을 때가 고려하지 않았을 때보다 큰 것으로 나타났다. 그리고 토압에 의해 옹벽의 각 위치에 유발되는 전단력과 모멘트을 비교한 결과 아칭효과를 고려했을 때의 전단력과 모멘트가 아칭효과를 고려하지 않았을 때보다 컸으며, 아칭효과의 고려 유무에 따라 옹벽에 유발되는 전단력의 차이와 모멘트의 차이는 옹벽의 저면으로부터 옹벽 높이의 0.02-0.08배되는 위치에서 최대가 되었다. 따라서 Coulomb의 토압이론에 근거해서 평행이동하는 강성옹벽을 설계하면 뒷채움재에서 발생하는 아칭효과로 인해 옹벽이 활동과 전도파괴에 대하여 불안정할 수 있다. 그리고 옹벽의 단면은 옹벽에 작용하는 전단력과 모멘트를 지지하기에 충분하지 않을 수 있으며, 이러한 옹벽 단면의 부족은 옹벽의 상부보다는 하부에서 심각하게 된다.

본 논문에서는 국내 비내진상세 조적채움벽 RC 골조의 동적거동 및 손상모드를 파악하기 위하여 실규모 크기의 비내진상세 RC 골조와 조적채움벽 RC 골조를 대상으로 진동대 실험을 실시하여 응답 및 거동 특성을 비교 평가하였다. 진동대 실험 결과, 순수 RC 골조는 기둥상하부 휨균열 및 접합부 전단균열이 심화되어 최종 파괴되었다. 조적채움벽 RC 골조의 경우 골조의 손상은 비교적 작았으며 조적벽체의 중앙부의 슬라이딩 균열 및 대각 전단 균열 손상이 크게 발생하였다. 조적채움벽 RC 골조는 순수 RC 골조에 비하여 초기상태의 공진주기가 짧아졌으며 최종 가진시에서 최대변위응답은 약 62% 감소하였다. 본 연구에서 적용한 조적채움벽은 비내진 상세를 가지는 RC 골조의 강성을 약 1.6배, 최대 강도를 약 2.2배 증가시키는 데 기여하는 것으로 분석되었다.

Friction stir spot welding between 5454 aluminum alloy sheets with the different thicknesses of 1.4 and 1.0 mm was performed. In the welding process, the tool for welding was rotated ranging from 500 to 2500, and plunged to the depth of 1.8 mm under a constant tool plunge speed of 100 mm/min. And then, the rotating tool was maintained at the plunge depth during the dwell time ranging from 0 to 7 sec. The pull-out speed of the rotating tool was 100 mm/min. The increase of tool rotation speed resulted in the change of the macrostructure of friction-stir-spot-welded zone, especially the geometry of welding interface. The results of the tensile shear test showed that the total displacement and toughness of the welds were increased with the increase of the tool rotation speed, although the maximum tensile shear load was decreased. However, the change in the dwell time at the plunge depth of the tool did not produce the remarkable variation in the macrostructure and mechanical properties of the welds. In all cases, the average hardness in friction-stir-spot-welded zone was higher than that of the base metal zone. By the friction stir spot welding technique, the welds with the excellent mechanical properties than the mechanically-clinched joints could be obtained.

Wind tunnel experiments were conducted under highly turbulent and disturbed flow conditions over a solid/perforated plate with a long splitter plate in its plane of symmetry. The effect of varied level of perforation of the normal plate on fluctuating velocities and fluctuating pressures measured across and along the separation bubble was studied. The different perforation levels of the normal plate; that is 0%, 10%, 20%, 30%, 40% and 50% are studied. The Reynolds number based on step height was varied from $4{\times}10^3$ to $1.2{\times}10^4$. The shape and size of the bubble vary with different perforation level of the normal plate that is to say the bubble is reduced both in height and length up to 30% perforation level. For higher perforation of the normal plate, bubble is completely swept out. The peak turbulence value occurs around 0.7 to 0.8 times the reattachment length. The turbulence intensity values are highest for the case of solid normal plate (bleed air is absent) and are lowest for the case of 50% perforation of the normal plate (bleed air is maximum in the present study). From the analysis of data it is observed that $\sqrt{\overline{u^{{\prime}2}}}/(\sqrt{\overline{u^{{\prime}2}}})_{max}$, (the ratio of RMS velocity fluctuation to maximum RMS velocity fluctuation), is uniquely related with dimensionless distance y/Y', (the ratio of distance normal to splitter plate to the distance where RMS velocity fluctuation is half its maximum value) for all the perforated normal plates. It is interesting to note that for 50% perforation of the normal plate, the RMS pressure fluctuation in the flow field gets reduced to around 60% as compared to that for solid normal plate. Analysis of the results show that the ratio [$C^{\prime}_p$ max/$-C_{pb}(1-{\eta})$], where $C^{\prime}_p$ max is the maximum coefficient of fluctuating pressure, $C_{pb}$ is the coefficient of base pressure and ${\eta}$ is the perforation level (ratio of open to total area), for surface RMS pressure fluctuation levels seems to be constant and has value of about 0.22. Similar analysis show that the ratio $[C^{\prime}_p$ max/$-C_{pb}(1-{\eta})]$ for flow field RMS pressure fluctuation levels seems to be constant and has a value of about 0.32.
